Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

Maybe it was for style?


Inactive

Can't argue with that. This game is based on Fate and K after all.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

So I made a mistake with how Damage Barriers worked.

A Damage Barrier is not a shield or reduction. Instead, it is a damage threshold. For example, Charlemagne as a damage barrier of 60. This means any attack that has a base damage of 60 or less is ignored. Anything that is above that value is resolved as normal.

So what that means is that the first attack against Charlemagne would have done no damage (as the base damage of an Assault Rifle is 55 and none of the MLF members had supernatural abilities or something).

However, we'll keep the 6 damage for now. There is a plot reason that I am not making up retroactively that the guy was able to damage a servant, I promise.

Huh. So that's how it works. Still nice. But when/if we level up, I might need to purchase Damage Barrier with some Mystical and Physical armor. Even Gnosis 0 has some nice abilities.

One question though - do I still lose action when not Absorbing and I get hit?

And I'm totally okay with not changing that damage. Plot reasons are the best.

Also, about quite some distant future - how does one upgrades an artifact?

I'm gonna say no. You'll keep your action if you get hit but the attack does no damage whatsoever.

If you want to upgrade your Artifact then it has to be done via PLOT because I don't see any sort of clear mechanical path in the book. If your interested in that, pursue it IC.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

Paul and Muerte? How are things?


Going fine; I thought 'What do you think' was directed at Muerte since they're her quarters and not Paul's.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

Well, you're essentially free to go up to your room or otherwise see to whatever you'd like. Sorry if that was not clear.

Got it. Maybe I should later search for a devout priest or mage? That's going to be interesting.

On this note - what exactly are Blue servants in the chain of command? If I understand correctly, they are under direct command of Tetsuya. Exceptions are like our current mission, when they are put under someone else's command, at least, to some degree. But still, they retain a great deal of autonomy, right?

What about my actions then - ditching the "leader" of the mission and taking over?


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

Servants do not fit into the structured Blue Clan hierarchy.

If you have any sort of military experience you can consider a servant to be something like a civilian contractor. They don't fit directly into the rank structure, but they can oversee enlisted personnel depending on the circumstances.

In this case, it would be expected of you to take the lead in a combat situation - within reason of course. You still have the overall goal of keeping the clansmen safe.

If you start giving orders then the other blue clansmen are going to follow them (though a leadership roll couldn't hurt!). Most of them know and respect you and trust in your ability to see them through this.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

Just waiting on Falla


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

Charlemagne are you diving right into the second fight as well?


Inactive

Yes, if possible - if I'll need 2 or less actions to get there and get an attack. If not - I just get as close as possible.


I'm going to be out camping Friday-Sunday; please bot me as necessary.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

I will update Charlemagne and Falla tomorrow.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

As far as I'm aware there is no Ki cost for using generic abilities like Aura Extension or Increased Speed.


Female Human (Silver Clansman) Acrobatic Warrior 2

I am posting this to all my games (apologies if you see this multiple times):

I am going to be out of town for an work conference that I was asked to go on last minute. I will be out of town through Friday (the 27th). There will be internet a the hotel, but the schedule will be really hectic and I won't have a lot of time to post.

Please bot me if I am in your game, and if you are in my game, please note that I will probably not be making an update until Saturday at the earliest.

Apologies and thank you for your patience.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

I will do my best to get updates out tomorrow


I'll be at relatives for the holidays, feel free to bot me if I'm slowing things down.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

So at the request of Muertes player I'll be removing her from the game. Would you all like to recruit for another player?


Female Human (Silver Clansman) Acrobatic Warrior 2

Certainly!


Inactive

Sure.


Of course!


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

My life will be unstable for the next couple of weeks so please be aware that there may be large gaps in my posting.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

Based on the lack of responses I got when I reopened recruitment we may need to continue forward with only three people though I'd consider letting someone run a second servant if any of you were interested


Female Human (Silver Clansman) Acrobatic Warrior 2

I'm actually fine with three people, given the nature of the game.


Inactive

Well, it would be nice, but nothing we can do if people don't response. I'm fine as is.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

I understand. For now we'll try and carry on. Paul, treat Muerte like any other NPC. Give her a command and I'll have her respond appropriately.


Finals start this week for me, so I'll be spending most of my time alternately studying and fantasizing about dropping out and becoming a Batman villain. Please bot me if I'm slowing things down.


Female Human (Silver Clansman) Acrobatic Warrior 2

You need money to be a supervillain, and getting a degree helps you make more money, so staying in school is probably the better way to become a supervillain.

Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

Hey all, just wanted to apologize for the slow updates for this game. My schedule has changed recently to where I am working very long shifts. While this does allow me plenty of time to write dialogue posts, it makes it more difficult to do anything that I need to reference my notes for. Anima is a challenging game for me to do off the top of my head.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

Falla and Charlemagne

The plane ride to London will be a few hours and then the train to the clock tower will be another hour. Do you want to do anything during these portions? Tour the city? If not we can pick up immediately at the clock tower.


Female Human (Silver Clansman) Acrobatic Warrior 2

I don't have anything particular I want to do in London.


Inactive

Nothing comes to mind.


Spooky Skeleton Scarecrow

I wanted to let you guys know that I think I will be discontinuing this game. It's been fun but I'm struggling to put the effort in that it needs to be really good and the quality is really starting to slip as a result


Female Human (Silver Clansman) Acrobatic Warrior 2

Okay, I understand how it goes. Thank you for running!


Inactive

Thanks for the game. I had great time.
