Goodman Games

Wasn't sure if this would be better in the Magic or Judges sections. Decided to go with Magic since it involves Patrons. So in my ongoing DCC game the party's wizard wound up throwing in her lot with Yddgrrl for a patron. Since that is one of the patrons who is only partially fleshed out I've been t...

Hugh takes aim at the last cocoon as he prepares to throw the rope once more.

Dex Check: d20= 8 + 1 (dex modifier) = 9

Hugh hauls in the lasso and attempts another toss. Dex Check: d20 = 4 + 1(dex modifier) = 5 He tries again (assuming nothing stops him) Dex Check: d20 = 10 +1 (dex modifier) = 11 As he continues to try and haul down the other victims of the spider-beasts Hugh glances back at Percival. "I unders...

Hugh inspects the dried out desiccated corpse. Picking up the old dagger he hands it to Kleaver. "Here, take this and help cut the dwarf loose from those webs." Kleaver does as Hugh suggests kneeling down and trying to help cut loose Dhourdhem from the webbing he's still caught up in. Mean...

Dhourdhem once more attempts to burst free from the webbing now the immediate threat seems to be over. Strength check d20= 7 + 1 (str modifier) = 8 "I...just...can't...seem to break them." "Here, let me assist." Grismelda, seeing the dwarven apothecary still struggling ineffectua...

Dhourdhem lets out a grunt as he lands back upon the ground. Recovering from getting tumbled about he looks up to see Percival there pulling him back. "Thank ye for the assistance friend." Summoning his strength he attempts to break free of the webbing constraining him. Strength Check (I a...

Dhourdhem: Reflex Save d20= 4 + 1 (dex bonus) = 5

The dwarven apothecary looks curiously at the webbing as he is easily ensnared by it.

Here are my actions for when my turn ends up coming around. Unless the situation changes seeing as I'm going after the monsters. Kleaver does a little fist in the air action when he sees his stone strike home. As he goes to snatch up another rock to follow up with he sees the cast off spectacles. Ho...

Let's say Kleaver aimed for whichever creature was on the right. Hugh d100 = 54 Grismelda d100 = 16, Attack Roll d20 = 20 (natural), Damage d4 = 1, Critical Roll = 3 (Stunning crack to forehead. Inflicts +1d3 damage with this strike, and the foe falls to the bottom of the initiative count next round...

Recovering from her initial shock at seeing the creatures, Grismelda quickly begins to spin her sling about over her head after dropping a stone into it. She let's fly at one of the beasts! Roll: d20=10 + 0 (dex modifier) = 10, Damage: d4=3 Hugh, Kleaver, & Dhourdhem are without ranged weapons b...

OOC: When you say intelligence check do you mean a roll under Int on a d20 or roll a d20 and add Hugh's intelligence modifier? Either way the d20 came out a 16 and Hugh has a +0 Int modifier. Grismelda and Dhourdhem turn to see the ferocious looking beasts suddenly lunging at the back rank of the pa...

Hugh takes a moment to look at the two different sets of tracks. He's trying to determine if he can tell which ones belonged to Nebin and which to the constable. While the caravan guard is investigating which set of tracks is which little Kleaver catches sight of the glint of metal. Crouching down t...

Sticking close together Kleaver & Hugh continue to lead the expedition into this underground chamber. They tread cautiously, watching for potential danger from any angle as best they can as they follow the path of the tracks that presumably belong to the missing Nebin & the constable.

OOC: Order looks correct to me. Standing side by side, though not shoulder to shoulder due to the height differences involved, Kleaver & Hugh cautiously began to follow the pair of tracks leading down into the darkness. They proceed slowly, testing the ground with their feet to ensure it never t...

Grismelda & Dhourdem join the rest of the crowd now gathered around inside of Nebin's home. While Kleaver is peering down the pathway Hugh goes ahead and lights up the torch. "You may be able to see down there without a light little one, but some of us aren't so fortunate. How does it look ...

Kleaver & Hugh cautiously enter the domicile first. Hugh does a quick look over of the home. "If the salamanders had eaten our missing persons there'd be bones left behind. Picked clean of course, but there'd still be some sign of them. I guess we'll have to check out this hole." He gr...

Little Kleaver struggles to hold onto his meal from the tavern as he watches the feral creatures make quick work of poor Dervos. Hugh, Grismelda, and Dhourdem all observe a brief moment of silence before turning back to the task at hand. "Nothing to be done about it now. Let's see if we can fin...

OOC: Hugh doesn't have a goat listed among his possessions. It looks like Eibur has one? Kleaver is about to turn the doorknob when Devros pushes past him. "Hey! I was about to op..." His protest is cut short as he sees the onrushing horde of creatures coming straight for him. Eyes wide in...

OOC: My lines in the party ranks will be A - Hugh, B - Kleaver, C - Grismelda, D - Dhourdem. Laid out just like in Chuck7497's post. Suitably chastened by the harsh words of the tavern master's daughter Hugh reaches down and puts a hand upon little Kleaver's shoulder. "I suppose we'd best be on...

Kleaver finishes off both his meal and his ale as his eyes dart from person to person who has shown up to join the motley crew that is going to be the search party. Although he does his best to avoid glancing at Grismelda as she does her woeful fortuneteller bit as he's having enough of a hard time ...

Sitting alone at a table the halfling butcher known only as Kleaver sips his ale as he tries to steady his nerves at the thought of the business the posse is gathered to do. Its only his duty to find out what happened to Nebin that has steeled his nerves enough for him to show up at all. Grismelda o...

OOC: Hurrah! Thanks for opening this up! Here's my crew of low life expectancy suckers...I mean prospective adventurers. :wink: The generator kind of went crazy on the demihumans for me. Should be interesting. Name: Kleaver Alignment: Neutral 0-level Occupation: Halfling chicken butcher Strength: 13...

I'm another newcomer to DCC who would be interested in getting in on a game to get a handle on the system. I've already read a good chunk of the core book so far.

Your tastes certainly seem to mirror mine. I think that it's also important to remember that Leiber wrote these stories over a fifty year span of real life, and whatever writing magic he might have captured in the early days simply might not have been there five decades later. I feel like the later...

Hey everyone! I'm a long time roleplayer who dabbled a bit with Dungeon Crawl Classics via the 3rd Ed/3.5 modules in my D&D group. Recently I got a copy of the DCC RPG core book and several of the modules and have fallen deeply in love with what I'm reading. When it comes to RPGs I've played all...
