Savage Rifts: Tales of the New West

Game Master EltonJ

And you see a bear with bony plates all over it's body! It looks like a grizzly, except for the bony plating.

Notice, Wild: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 2) = 5

But we're in town, right? We're walking from one place to another in the elven town? So this wouldn't be a wild animal. What are our elf escorts doing?

[dice=Notice, Wild]2d6

It has a chain around it's neck.

The elves cast a spell that makes the bear docile.

Frankie - FWIW, if you want to roll two dice in one line, and not have Paizo add them together so you can pick the higher one (as SW does), you can do something like :
{dice=Notice, Wild}d6; d6{/dice}
with the {} replaced by [], of course.

notice: 1d6 ⇒ 4
wild: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Did I notice anything for rolling a Raise?

Frankie nods. "Interesting that they use wild animals for labor. I wonder why they don't just use domesticated ones that aren't potentially dangerous."

You smell something out of the ordinary. You smell orcs coming from somewhere in the village. Perhaps they are prisoners, or circus performers. You don't know which.

"Hey guys - heads up! There are some Orcs nearby." Turning to the elf that's accompanying us, Kara says "You got them under control?"

"We try to."

Frankie nods. "Interesting that they use wild animals for labor. I wonder why they don't just use domesticated ones that aren't potentially dangerous."

I imagine its to keep the dangerous ones under control using magic so it keeps all safe

Malachi will smooze with whoever is handling the big bear, curious to learn some advice on how to better communicate with his animal companion bear.

Frankie shrugs, relaxing minutely as it becomes clear the bears and orcs are under magical control. He doesn't give a fig about the ethics of such practices and as long as they're no threat to him doesn't give the mind-controlled creatures a second thought.
