Dreams of the Second Age

[Rykon]

That's why I just used Phantom Conjuring Performance to obscure our location and try and enable a stealth roll on the way down. Sorry if that wasn't clear, I'm presently at the point of fatigue where I feel like I have a hard time communicating precisely.

 

[PirateLexi]

I'm writing up a stealth attack, so gimme a minute lol

 

[Sherwood]

Ah. Sorry about my misunderstanding of that. With the crowd in front of the temple, you would still have to set down a short distance away and behind some buildings. If you want to be closer than the 100 feet I mentioned in my earlier post, you'll need to make some stealth rolls to be unseen.

 

[PirateLexi]

Well thanks for making me waste like ten minutes looking at rules and writing

 

[Sherwood]

Lexi, go ahead and post your action, too. You guys are striking from surprise, and will each have a free action before the enemy can respond.

 

[PirateLexi]

Well if he's doing something to hit all of them, it completely invalidates what I was doing.

 

[Sherwood]

His attack doesn't hit them all. At most he can tag a handful with his action.

 

[PirateLexi]

Well in that case, then, lol. I wasn't upset about it, just was trying to do something cool lol

 

[Sherwood]

This is a Exalted game with First Age characters. We're all about the cool here.

 

[PirateLexi]

I may have rolled the attack wrong tho, it's been ages since I've gotten into actual combat in an exalted game.

 

[Sherwood]

I'm not going to stress too much about this fight. Its not like they can hurt you. The basics of the fight are: Dex + Ability (melee, archery, martial arts, etc) + Specialties (if any that apply) + Accuracy of your weapon + stunts is your base die pool. At this point you can add to it from your Charms. Solars can double their pool, while the Sidereals can add up to their skill in extra dice. Roll all the dice, and I subtract the DV of your target to get your damage to apply against the soak, minimum of 1 die unless you have a weapon with the Overwhelming tag on it.

Minor correction, sidereal excellencies can add up to (essence) dice, it's dragon blooded who can add their ability pool.

 

[PirateLexi]

Ok I did it right then. Not the greatest roll lol. But yay for VBoS making for some awesome stuff if it hits

 

[Sherwood]

Minor correction, sidereal excellencies can add up to (essence) dice, it's dragon blooded who can add their ability pool.

Even I make mistakes on occasion. Thanks for the backup.

 

[JayTee]

No problem, that's why I'm here for ( )

 

[PirateLexi]

I am definitely remembering to take archery charms next time I make a Sidereal.

 

[Sherwood]

THe funny one that I can think of is the Archery Charm that heals its target, not damages it.

 

[PirateLexi]

I've always been fond of being able to throw a scream at people and deal lethal damage.

 

[Sherwood]

Yeah, that one is a hoot. One great way to send a message to someone across a noisy battlefield.

 

[PirateLexi]

I may or may not be planning to take Neighborhood Relocation Scheme. *sheepish innocence*

 

[Sherwood]

Do you guys want to take any prisoner?

 

[Seeker of the End]

One or two.

 

[Sherwood]

Well, its getting late. I'm off to bed for the night.

 

[Seeker of the End]

Same. Night!

 

[PirateLexi]

It occurs to me that perhaps I should do a little less blatant murder with Niko's virtues. :3
