Perhaps a 0 level should get a 1d4, and then a first level char gets 1HD plus 1d4, and so on? Seems fair.beermotor wrote:Heh, that's what I get for not double checking. So, cthulhudarren is correct; you only get to roll 1 HD, since you're just first level. (Does this imply 0-levels cannot be healed? Interesting.)

"I think sitting and waiting in this foul place is the worst thing we could do," says Flavia. "I think we need to keep pressing them. We know that that bear of a bug and his master are here somewhere, perhaps spying on us right now... We can't let them regroup, plan and harry us further -- we need to harry them!"
"I say we should go up to the next level and see if we can't do them some damage for a change...! We should get ourselves into groups of two or three, so no one is standing alone. Darrow, you can strike at range, and should remain in the middle where you can also perhaps heal those at the perimeter -- is anyone else in that category?"

After a few minutes of needed rest, food and smoke Thorin and Fosco stand up and ready themselves for more adventuring.
Thorin looks around at the group. "When you all are ready let me know. We can than get some sort of marching order and precede up the stairs."

"We don't have to go back through that stench do we? I don't know if I could take any more. I find it hard to breathe now and my chest aches.", Tonunt asks.

/ooc I guess I'll just go ahead and vote to avoid deadlock. My characters are feeling very protected seeing the strength of their comrades and the power of the clerics.
One by one, Tonunt, Bypeld and Orastes agree to push on. That is as long as they aren't doing it alone.

Do I roll this when I first want to use a spell? Or should I do it while we have a moment of relative calm? Doing it now conceivably avoids some of the hazard of the technique...
I'm thinking I'll go for it for Color Spray alone, and save my others for when we have study time (unless circumstances dictate otherwise).
Also, Darrow is planning to cast Second Sight before we go up the stairs (saying it now, in case events progress without me on the forum...).

Re: The Secret of Bone Hill - L1 DCC conversion Play By Post
Well, is Darrow casting Second Sight, or not?
And I think the on-the-fly learning is meant to be done like now, rather than when first use. At least, let's go ahead and do it if you are gonna.
Anyone else doing anything?

Waiting for the rest of the party Fosco and Thorin take guard near the steps. Seeing Darrow casting a spell gives both hope that maybe now luck is on their side.
ooc...I am ready to continue when you guys are.

Re: The Secret of Bone Hill - L1 DCC conversion Play By Post
Darrow will cast Second Sight just before ascending. I was waiting to make sure we were ready to ascend, because some of the effects can be very short term... But here's the roll: 12 - glimpses the future, gains +4 to a roll in the next round.
Can that be a second casting?
As for the result of Chendriss' hasty learning, he dredges up what he can of bits and pieces of knowledge, aaaannnddddd....
He gets a 14, which beats the 11 he needed. Now Mercurial Magic rolls: 00 & 79 (and subtracting 20 from each yields...)
• Dimensional Schism (80)
• No change (59)

What about Portly Trim and the other character? They vanished? Maybe place them on point since the player seems to have vanished?

Re: The Secret of Bone Hill - L1 DCC conversion Play By Post
Should we try this 'marching order' thing again? How many can fit on the stairs shoulder to shoulder, effectively if something attacks? Perhaps two? Three?
This is an awkward process via PbP. Maybe we each designate each of our characters as Front Line, Right Flank, Left Flank, Middle, or Back Line. In narrow spaces Right Flank is behind Front Line and Left Flank is just before Back Line.
Assuming we use this structure:
Flavia - Front Line (or Left Flank if no one else is)
Hector - Right Flank
Chendriss - Middle
Darrow - Middle
