Valley of the Skulls - OOC

So, is there anything anyone wants to do before landing?

I wouldn't mind having the chance to rp before landing. I won't be home until late though

I took a lot of liberties in posting a little RP, so if it doesn't sit well with the inquisitor I understand removing it. I tried to add a little flavor to a very nasty encounter that also shows a little bit more of my character. And after all, the game is meant for RP.

I made sure to have Jim and Alaric say nothing, and only one line from a trooper that will soon not be with the party. I know it reads more like what a GM would post, so if it's not kosher just remove it.

nothing you said is out of line, some of it is a bit wrong, but wrong in a good RP way actually and makes sense that it would be wrong. So all in all good RP.

What was wrong, that he would turn to a mate via his leg?

Yes, the genesteal infects its victims via a tongue like appendage located in the mouth. but your character would not know that, so him assuming any wound from the thing could do that is very likely. Dont forget you took so damage and are at 0 wounds right now, you might want to RP some I could be infected. also you may want to look into the healing rules you are outta commission for a while.

I assumed the fate point brought me back to full hp and I was not at risk for infestation. Is that no where near the case?

I don't know the heal rules and will look them up when I get home, but I'm assuming this flight is long enough to take care of quite a bit?

Also, silverwrath looks to me like he's bitching out. If he hasn't posted by tomorrow I say mod takes over his character (if he has time).

the fatepoint kept you from dieing, but does not give you full health. I was nice enough to leave your leg attached.
Also you took 2 hits, the first did not kill you, the second did(fate point changed that).
You are not infected, but doesnt it make since that if you think the wounded trooper could have suffered infection you might think the same of your wounds? RP it how you want. As for healing with the extent of your wounds you will regain 1 wound a day, that can be spend up but you will need to seek medical attention when you land.

FYI, you shit yourself three times. Serious.

No or I shouldnt of and wouldnt have but you played my character differently then i would have liked. I do not run.

you do run when you fail fear test and result of the failed test says you run.
You have a willpower of 20 which means you are going to fail alot of those test, and it didnt help that the 3 test you had to make i rolled in the 90s on. But you have the book feel free to check out the rules for fear.
also genestealers are fear (2) creates so they impose a -10 penalty on the test which turns your 20 willpower into a 10 willpower.

1) I didn't play your character, and your barrage of shit/piss/vomit during fights was rolled with the utmost of character. Joe may be an ass but he's an honest ass. You don't like it, show up to watch yourself shit your pants next time. If not, accept what happens in your absence.

Constantine Goes towards the pilots Seum however blocks the doorway not letting him see them.

*To Seum* "You will move NOW or I WILL forcibly remove you....You have already pointed a shotgun at me and if you do it again I WILL make you suffer. Are we clear? Now Move"

I'd say we're looking at a coo.

2)I can be fair and say I deserve the 'door placement' here given I took liberties to have you dry-heave, but remember, your pants shitting was for 12 rounds, so I didn't have to stretch that far given we had just jumped on the plane. I'll assume I'm casually leaning against a wall here, as standing like a guard in front of the pilots to block ANYONE is unlikely.

If he continues, and I have a hunch he might, I'm ready to put things to rolls.

(Joe's games are always eventful.)

Not sure on the proximity within the ship. Am I within sight/hearing distance of this?

well considering most of this is cargo area and Seum bared him from entereing the cockpit, i would say yes.

Not that I am telling you how to RP Silver, but if we continue down this road, my character is going to shoot yours.

In the head.

Can we start a thread where Silver just roleplays with himself? It seems to be all he needs.

I'd like to buy silent move for 100, and acrobatics for 100 exp when next possible.

Btw, you mentioned exp for RP done prior to the genestealer incident.

I think it might make sense for anyone involved in the incident to be able to buy (1 time only chance) forbidden lore for whatever applicable for genestealers (xenos, tyranids, whatever). Probably a 100 point cost. your call Joe.

I edited some of the RP first its 2 days i think before you land.

Constatine you can no just change armor and weapons in the middle of a confrontation, You are welcome to do leave the conversation and go spend a few minutes doing that but it needs to be RPd that way, not RPed like you just strip now in front of the cockpit during a yelling match. Also i deleted the part about alaric not knowing you know or something because i wasnt sure what you ment. You are welcome to put it back but i wasnt sure if you were saying alaric didnt know your name or didnt know that you knew his name because of the data pad or maybe he didnt know you were a transvestite...

Krig you are acolytes working for and inqusitor so i changed that as well
i think that covers all of the changes


krig you can purchase the skills now as long as they are part of your current advance scheme. keep in mind once you have spent 500 xp you can purchase skills/talents from the next rank as well. the same for you wes and constatine you both earned 200 xp from the genestealers.
Constatine i think you have 300 xp left over from character creation you have not used. +200 from the Genestealers so that gives you 500 to spend

Willpower along with any other attribute can be raised. Check you career path in the rule book it will give a value for your attributes as well as a list of skills and talents you can upgrade. Please post here and let me now what you are spending XP on when you make your decision.

I am going to award and additional 200 xp to everyone for the past forum RP. I will allow everyone to purchase commonlore Xenos (tyranids) for the cost of 200 xp because of the encounger if you wish.

Constantine: for the sake of semantics, grammer, diction, transitive verbs, children in poverty, the state of California, and the game will you spend at least 2 seconds before and after u post to make sure you aren't just mashing your hands on the keyboard?

It also seems as if you're trying to imply u have a datapad indicating someone on the ship us to be eliminated per the inquisitor. Just a heads up: that datapad was inspected when we rescued your ass. So, the thing that Constantine knows that Alaric doesn't and did not tell Constantine (makes SO much sense) Alaric actually does know and is the only reason you're not a grease stain back in the space station.

Joe, can u please correct his dialogue with the pilots? Seum never moved from where he was standing.

I did not correct his dialog because he could have easily spoken over your shoulder or around you.

As for the datapad, there was never any real mention of searching a datapad, so that one i have to rule in his favor. However; he does not have orders or permission from the inquistor to kill any of the party so he better have a damn good excuse for it when he tries to. What was inspected was his inqusitorial papers stating who he was and that he was acting on the inquistions behalf something all of you have. these are phsyical papers not something that would be in a datapad.

however, since i am in control of the inquistor here is what your datapad says.
Constatine meet up with the other acolytes Seum a trusted Arbitor and Alaric his bodyguard/assassin at space station cer. 67
They will inform you of your mission
Jermaine

Just wanted to clarify that I was not forceably moved.

nope you are still in the same place

Aegis seals, for those unfamiliar with 40K

Purity Seals

I went ahead and got forbidden lore (xenos) for 200 as well, I think it makes sense, all things considered.

Acrobatics is part of the next level up. It allows me to disengage at a half action instead of full if I make a successful AGI roll.

good find, i will allow the purchase of these provided you have the money and the rolls are made to locate them.

ok to pull this off krig you or wes will need to make a fellowship roll. Make the roll here in the OOC chanel so everyone can see and refrence it.
Constaine you will be allowed to make a opposing roll if you wish. To dissuade the troopers from helping Alaric.

krig either your or wes can make the roll decide between you who will do it since you are both working together.

Here are the skills you can use to get the troops to help you (this is for krig/wes and silver) pick one and use it
charm (fellowship based)
command (fellowship based)
deceive (fellowship based)
Intimidate (strenght based)

keep in mind if you are not trained in a skill the test is made at half of the appropirate attribute.

So here is what will happen, Both groups (wes/krig and silver) will make one roll then we will compare the results.
the winner will be determined by degrees of success. 1 degree = 10% below your attribute so if you have a 50 and roll a 40 you get 1 degree of success if you roll a 30 you get 2 a 20 you get 3 etc. If either of you succedes the winner will be who ever is closest to their attribute.

Silver you have the option of not playing a total tool and surrendering which would go along way towards repairing the damage done.

anyways to roll dice just click the dice icon above and select the d100 option.
