I'm back, but only sort of. My pet who I've had for 20 years died yesterday, and I'm not handling it well. I've posted, but no claims it's a quality post.
I'm sorry, everyone; I'm like a walking zombie right now due to a short, but not worrisome, rough patch in real life. I expect the situation to resolve in the next few days. I'm going to take this weekend off from PbP, and will return to normal posting on Monday. Please bot as needed; using up spells or consumables is fine.
The possibly bad effects of rolling a one just mean you can't take 20, not you can't take ten. The only thing that would prevent taking 10 would be if the GM considers this to be immediate danger or distracted.
CRB quote:
pg 86
Taking 10: When your character is not in immediate
danger or distracted, you may choose to take 10. Instead of
rolling 1d20 for the skill check, calculate your result as if
you had rolled a 10. For many routine tasks, taking 10 makes
them automatically successful. Distractions or threats (such
as combat) make it impossible for a character to take 10. In
most cases, taking 10 is purely a safety measure—you know
(or expect) that an average roll will succeed but fear that a
poor roll might fail, so you elect to settle for the average roll
(a 10). Taking 10 is especially useful in situations where a
particularly high roll wouldn’t help.
Taking 20: When you have plenty of time, you are
faced with no threats or distractions, and the skill being
attempted carries no penalties for failure, you can take 20.
In other words, if you roll a d20 enough times, eventually
you will get a 20. Instead of rolling 1d20 for the skill check,
just calculate your result as if you had rolled a 20.
I'm sorry, everyone, but I'm in a really bad place right now. I'm going to take this weekend entirely off from PbP to try to rest and heal. Please bot me if I would otherwise hold the game back. Feel free to use comsumables or limited use abilities.
I'm sorry, everyone, but I'm starting to really doubt this game is going to go anywhere, and I'm out of interest in it. I will be hiding the game so that it does not show up in my list of campaigns.
I am writing you regarding Order 36777210 in my account.
The Order was from Jan. 24th and is still pending. I tried to actualize my payment details to force a new withdrawal, but it seems not to work.
Please take a look into this issue and fix it for me. It would be greatly appreciated by my Society group, as I should run a game from this Download on Wednesday ;-)
When I have gained a Skill Feat with my selected Background, and my class would lateron gift me the exact same Skill Feat - is this feat lost? What is the RAW for this case?
1) Can the Creature use "Take Cover" to increase it's Cover to Standard Cover?
Why do I think, that the Creature Can use Take Cover in this situation:
In the Action "Take Cover" the requirement states " You are benefiting from cover". As I have Lesser Cover I do gain a benefit from cover, as my AC is being increased by +1. Therefore I qualify for this use of this action and get the benefits of Standard Cover after using "Take Cover"
Please tell me, how you do rule it, and how you do interpret the rules as written on this case.
I have got a question regarding the Leshy Ancestry in Society play.
I ran the Scenario yesterday, in which...

... in wich the players can gain access to the Finadar Leshy Background. But the Leshy Ancestry seems still to be uncommon, and not obtainable. Is there a way to gain access to this Ancestry at this point, or is this boon at the moment kind of useless?
