(YBA) Diaochan in Wicht's lair alone

[Wicht]

that should be a Flawless Willow - adds 1 hit and makes the move sound better

Diaochan's flawless attack succeeds and two of the rats fly through the air, landing lifeless and unmoving.

Zombie Rats
Hits Remaining: 3 / - / -
Powers: Undead, Expert of the Rat

Zombie Rat 1 attacks: The scythe rends the fountain; fends off the violence of the tides and beautifully shields the foray of the club!

Diaochan responds with the same style, though she wonders what type of style rats could have anyway...

The scythe wracks the beach before it punches the Eyrie of the Phoenix; ferociously averts the onslaught of the fires!

 

[Wicht]

Diaochan takes another 1 hit.

Zombie Rats
Hits Remaining: 3 / - / -
Powers: Undead, Expert of the Rat

Zombie Rat 1 attacks: The sword attacks the cliff; parries the assailment of the fortification!

 

[tleilaxu]

Diaochan wonders if undead rats can still carry diseases and decides to try not to get bitten anymore. Using the snake style she strikes quickly and then jumps out of range...

The snake strikes the volcano; waves away the aggression of the insect!

 

[Wicht]

If Diaochan had been a novice she would not have pulled off the attack, but her experience helps give her the edge and she strikes the rat with her snake whip and kills it.

Diaochan recieves 1.5 experience from the fight.

Diaochan searches the room

 

[tleilaxu]

What about an item that gives +5 to willow and +5 to flawless attacks?

 

[Wicht]

Off the top of my head I think the cost would be 20 for the +5 to Willow. For the Flawless part I am not sure we would want to allow a +5 for a modifier add on; but its 1 yen for a +1 for the modifier. Thus 21 yen for +6 with a Flawless Willow weapon for a total of 10 hits per successful strike.

The room is indeed a garbage pit. Across from where the tunnel enters the room, about ten feet off the floor is a ledge. Diaochan thinks she sees a door up there as well.

 

[tleilaxu]

Diaochan jumps up the ledge and tries to open the door there...

(OK, I just asked because the the Monderfal in the 100 kingdoms thread the character has an item that gives +5 phoenix +5 avenging, and I wasn't even aware that you could boost modifiers)

From the YBA Rules:


The price for a weapon that does one extra damage when a successful attack using its style is made is 2 Yen. Two extra damage makes the price 5 Yen. Three extra damage makes the price 10 Yen. After that, for each extra damage done the price is increased by 5 Yen.
.........
The maximum amount of damage that can be added to any one style by a weapon is 5.
.............
Modifiers may be purchased at a cost of 1 Yen for +1 damage, 2 Yen for +2 damage, 4 Yen for +3 damage, 8 Yen for +4 damage, and 16 Yen for +5 damage.

So +5 Flawless and +5 Willow would be 36 Yen.
