Updates Saturday. Between work, a wake and table top D&D tonight so there is no time to post today.

Note that in 2ed a change into forms is governed by a Stamina + Primal Urge roll. DC variable depending on how many forms you choose to shift through to arrive at your intended Form

Your two totem points can now be invested in Fox. Your Totem may well change but for now this is a good start I think!
With the holidays almost over I will try and increase the posting rate here so we can move into the full action of the Chronicle.
Storyteller Phoenix |
Finally posted...
About time! :-)
No worries, I am pretty lenient on posting rates.
Storyteller Phoenix |
Great posts guys. It's no wonder the Garou have such problems, falling for such an obvious ruse! Damn Rage working as a double edged sword...
Sylas Shadow |
Gm we leave now and we are defined as murderers and there is no way to find evidence contrary. Loss of all honor and renown sucks. Not leaving means death. That sucks too... so if I use the veil right as I walk to the gate but dont go and stay to prove our innocence, do you have a problem with that?
Storyteller Phoenix |
You won't lose any Renown as you are all still Pups under the Litany.
You can attempt to stay as a side quest but if you are caught you will be slain by the Wendigo that much is clear.
Of course you may also be able to find evidence away from the Caern that proves your and the Sept of the Green's innocence. It is Kindo and Guides who should be most put off, neither even arrived from the Sept on the Green and they are being lumped in with the rest of you!
Certainly I have no problem with it but how will the rest of the pack feel if you stay behind? :-)

Long week at work including today. I will update either early in the morning or in the evening tomorrow. But tomorrow for sure. The long hours were good though as I am now caught up and can actually start to post regularly again. To say the least I did not realize how backed up I was at work till I returned to the office!
Storyteller Phoenix |
The start of this adventure is a bit jarring but you'll be able to get some kind of explanation in the here and now...
Storyteller Phoenix |
I hope to post tonight, somehow I missed the Tuesday post and have been under the weather all week.
No worries, illnesses have been going around BAD this season.
Storyteller Phoenix |
so if i read correctly. Curren rank x 2... I wish to buy 1 rank in Investigation. current rank is 1, so 2 xp?
You got it!
Storyteller Phoenix |
Now that we are fully engaged in the story please let me know if you are lost with respect to the plot. This adventure as written is even more jarring than I presented it here :-)

Our first battle is upon us!
Your current forms are:
Erik Talbot - Lupus Form
Gabriel Smith - Lupus Form
Guides the Pack - Glabro or Crinos Form (Your choice. I assume you had to, to speak with Icedagger)
Howls at Dawn - Lupus
Kindo - Homid
Sylas Shadow - Hispo
Foes:
Icedagger - In Crinos
The Pack - All in Lupus
At the top of the page are the rules for shifting through forms if you wish to change form in round 1.
Also at the top are rules for all Gifts should you wish to employ them i combat.
I will NOT re-roll Initiative each round as I will be using block Initiative to save time. Roll all attacks and damage in the same round to keep thing flowing as well.
I am considering rolling all PC soaks also to speed up combat. (Let me know if you object).
Storyteller Phoenix |
I changed the Forms of the Garou to a spoiler as that page is cached and a pain to open.
Once Sylas goes I'll move us forward.
Storyteller Phoenix |
Man, Garou are combat monsters, I forgot just how much so. These soak rolls for both sides have been nuts.
Storyteller Shadow |
I forgot to change my melee to brawl when I changed the fetish on Sylas. Would you allow a retcon on it because otherwise I am useless except for healing.
Sure, we are early enough in game that some tweaks are fine. Using that tree is melee; -)

This is why in my house rules, I don't roll for damage, just for soak. I've also altered the rules for regeneration a bit, as combat tends to be not just faster but more final.
Storyteller Phoenix |
Oh yeah, and armor automatically removes damage done, not added to soak.
I considered some of these ideas but I would hate to kill players faster than I can justify them joining the pack! Perhaps we can have Soak and Base Damage automatic with Extra Damage from Combat successes rolled. Thing is that makes a character like Kindo damn near unstoppable and could also be the case for some NPCs you will all face in the future as well...
The luck of the dice in many ways mirror what can happen in real life, the favorite does not always win and with static soak and damage that tendency would play out in a way that I am not sure would lead to pretty results!

FYI, I will NOT be updating this thread again until Tuesday or Wednesday as I need to kick off a new campaign tomorrow night.
