Dice Rifts Adventure OOC

[Sherwood]

Yeah, he can have one. I'm sure it would have come up OOC earlier if he had been able to post.

 

[Purr]

Cool! Thanks. I didn't want him out of the loop.

 

[Vaneheart]

Purr Sounds good to me. :-)

 

[Vaneheart]

That crazy high-output lightning strike that nearly burned a house down in Colorado Springs that was all over the news was my mom's neighbor by the way. :-P

Life is really wack sometimes.

 

[Sherwood]

All I've seen in the news is the endless talk about the earthquakes in California. I even felt them here in Las Vegas.

 

[Vaneheart]

Oh damn. I didn't know they were that bad. I hope everything settles down soon.

 

[Sherwood]

Yup. It shook the house, but not bad at all.

BTW, where would Sir Dru be as Terra and Gradicus are heading into the town? Are you on the ship, or did you join them to prowl about to make sure it is all safe for the townspeople?

 

[Psychie]

Hey, welcome back Vaneheart ! We missed you.

 

[Vaneheart]

Join them to prowl around. I am still reading all the posts and catching up.

My friend who wants to join finished her character by the way. She sent it to me to review, but I haven't been around to check anything yet.

 

[Psychie]

Sounds like we are about to have a full party once more.

No hurry. There was a lot of OOC talk in the past few days.

Send me some info on your friend. Any idea on what she wants to run?

I wanted to point out somethings to sirlabe . The game has two different damage scales. They are SDC (structural Damage Capacity) and MDC (Mega Damage Capacity). SDC is what normal, daily stuff is made of (tables, chairs, cars, etc) and your hit points. MDC is a whole different animal. One MDC point does 100 SDC, making it very lethal to people not protected by MDC armor. Also, SDC damage does absolutely nothing to MDC materials. Its like taking a baseball bat to a M1 Abrams tank. No matter how hard you swing, you won't be able to do any damage to it.

Your character has a suit of MDC armor on, but whenever you are about to go into combat, you should always cast your Armor of Ithan spell first, unless you are expecting a cakewalk encounter. There are other ways of protecting yourself, but as a Ley Line Walker, magic protection should be your kneejerk reaction to any encounter.

 

[Psychie]

Just to let Sirlabe know, once we get to know you better, we do have a few extra talismans of magic armor that come in very handy. Just give us some time to work you into our party.

 

[sirlabe]

I will try my best to remember that.

 

[Sherwood]

I will be quite willing to give you hints on what to do. Also, the others are all rather knowledgeable on the system, so asking for advice will get you lots of feedback.

 

[sirlabe]

I'm just trying to not be a burden.

 

[Sherwood]

Don't worry about that.

 

[sirlabe]

I really don't want to hold the party back in anyway so I'll do my best to try and not die, and stay out of trouble.

 

[Vaneheart]

Human, Grey Seer. I think her forum name is Ladybug_Runner. Ladybug_Runner

 

[Purr]

...which needs a name by now, don't you think? Psychie Silanon sirlabe ?

 

[Silanon]

I'm generally bad with names - I'll think about it, though.

Just in case there's something to spot, I'll roll perception as well - +3 for magic/machines.

 

[Purr]

Sherwood , Gradicus would like to activate his Energized Sense Evil spell (duration: 40 minutes). If he is able, Grad would like to use his Tracking and Wilderness Survival skills (and even his Detect Ambush skills to see if an ambush had taken place here, and if so, how).

Tracking: 57%
Wilderness Survival: 62%
Detect Ambush: 57%

 

[sirlabe]

Quick question, are there spell slots or should I not be worried about casting abilities?

 

[Psychie]

As long as you have the PPE, you can cast it. There is no spell slots like in DnD or Pathfinder.

 

[sirlabe]

Alright I gotcha, I was just wondering because I didn't want to blow them all if I had them.
