Skills
Increases

Dodge (24): Increased by 8 = 32
Grapple (25): Increased 4 = 29

Spot Hidden: Not increased

[Mr. Handy]

Well done! Your skill increases have been added to your character sheet too.

[Laraqua]

I suppose I do have time to do some back reading for Cynthia ... to be honest I really didn't think she'd make it! Okay, I'll keep her.

http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2655439/ - both fails and thus successes! http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2655440/ - +6 for psychology, +8 for Spot Hidden.

[Mr. Handy]

Awesome! Your skill increases have been applied.

Actually, people like Cynthia are more likely to survive. It's those who don't go charging into battle and taking risks who tend to stay alive longer. Of course, if weren't for the people who do, everyone would end up dead a lot sooner.

Chapter 5 is now done! I'll post the skill experience checks needed for the PCs in Gold on Sunday and maybe get started rolling for the NPCs, but I need some sleep first. I hope to get Chapter 6 started the first weekend in September, with everything hopefully ready to go by Labor Day.

Welcome to Steerpike, who will be playing Technical Sergeant Jessica Valdez in Gold and DEA Special Agent John Lake in Omaha when Chapter 6 starts!

Your skill increases have now been added to your character sheets.

Here are the skill experience checks for the PCs in Omaha. This includes John Lake, so Steerpike, you may roll to see if his Spot Hidden skill increases (and if so, by how much) using the technique described above. You may also post in Triage for Jessica Valdez and do a little roleplaying, as her thread is still unlocked.

[Mr Zombie killer]

Okay I will post up my experience rolls as well as who I choose for sword and ideas or character choice for gold soon. Sorry it is taking me so long. So much stuff to do!

[ImpInTraining]

Remind me again please... if we succeed at the raise-skill check, does it go up by 1d6, or 1d10?

[masonstone]

1d10

[Mr. Handy]

Thanks, masonstone. Yes, that's right, you get 1d10 for each increase. Remember that you have to fail the skill roll to get it.

Rashad Sadiq
Skill Check
Increase

Spot Hidden - 25 increased by 8 = 33

[Mr Zombie killer]

Wow the sex must be good for Darnell

His large club (heh heh heh) has increased as well as his first aid (for his heart after Heather fucks him I guess)

Alvin's listen skills are better as well...

Here are the rolls to prove it: skill increases

So here are the numbers that the skills increase by

Large Club goes from 60 to 63

First Aid goes from 30 to 37

Alvin listen skill goes from 65 to 74!

[Mr. Handy]

Rashad's Spot Hidden skill is 50, so the roll of 47 does not give him an increase. Sorry. The other increases have been applied.

[kouchpotato]

Ah, thought it was 25 for some reason. Oh well.
