OOC: CHAPTER 5 - At Sea

[Anatomist]

Øyvind goes for three hits, bang bang bang! (1d100=98, 1d100=90, 1d100=81) Eager after the winning of a match?
doing non lethal dmg (1d3+1d4=4)

[Job]

Hmm.

Uh, Anatomist? To use a skill, your character needs to roll under his % chance, so Øyvind missed every punch since his fist/punch skill = 50%.

However, Gunnar only landed his second punch, so Øyvind was very lucky. Damage to Øyvind = 5 HP (nonlethal), but since two bouts took place between Øyvind's last fight and this one, Øyvind was at full HP having recovered between bouts.

Looking at the resistance table, Gunnar has no chance to knock out Øyvind (5HP damage vs. Øyvind's 15 starting HP).

Since Gunnar won the first round, I get to describe the action.

Lol sorry, seems i was asleep when i rolled

[Job]

OK Anatomist, it's time for our second round of boxing action between Øyvind and Gunnar Sorensen.

Here are Gunnar's punches! Ouch!

If noone else will comment on it, let me be the first to say Steward Adam Henning looks freaky as hell. What is the deal with his eyeballs? ...and one nostril flared but the other isn't?

[Anatomist]

Job. You did see this on page 2, right?

George Barrow will attend the Afternoon class whit G & N Sorensen on Technical Climbing.

And barrow suggest to Mr. Moore he can do a class on life in Antarctica, penguins, sea lions and whales. How do they survive?

[Job]

Ack! Sorry Anatomist. How did I miss that?

OK, so here are the changes that I think I'd need to make:

• George attends the Sept 14, 15, 16, 17 technical climbing classes
• George begins teaching the "Antarctica Flora and Fauna" class beginning on Sept 16

Does this sound right?

Never mind the timeline, just make the new class go live after the weekend 18-19.

Hello Mr. Handy,

That is an excellent photo of your Lockheed airplane!

Hey, regarding your "miss" % roll with your flying manuever, I'm assuming that Katie lost control of the aircraft for a brief period during the climb and will have a skill roll to regain control as the craft begins dropping from it's zenith. If she misses a second time, then I'd say the craft will then enter a fast steep dive and she'd get one last skill check -10% to correct the drop--and parachute out if unsuccessful.

Do you agree or would you handle it differently?

I plan to make a post that responds to your recent one describing Katie's climb (i.e. Gabrielle crew members begin noticing her efforts).

Job.

[Mr. Handy]

Thanks!

Sounds about right to me. A single normal failure, especially one that fails so narrowly, shouldn't result in a wreck directly. I'll go ahead and make my next roll.

Nicely done! Geez, and I was hoping that there'd be a ditched airplane and that we'd have an early rescue operation going! Starkweather would've surely had some fun things to say in such an event! Ah well, there'll be plenty of time for that on the ice...

[Job]

So at this point in the game, the Keeper notes that Doctor Watkins interrupts a management meeting...

...and is rewarded by coffee and donuts. And detailed conversation about work.

Ah, life on the high sea!

If someone needs a priest for a prayer for a safe landing next time..

Phew! You'll be a busy guy in Antarctica, Padre!

Thanks! I'm glad I was able to impress Starkweather. Wait until he finds out who was flying the plane.

It will be the stuff of legend. Camille's encounter with Starkweather was VERY fun. I have as much fun with that sort of thing as I do with the monster encounters.

Nightmare? Is it really a nightmare?

Job.

[jrod]

Haha..if it isn't a nightmare in a dream-state, it's a nightmare in reality. I just read the additions, i wouldn't have believed it possible, but yes it got freakier! (almost like the short story the autopsy)... 5 points for evil job! We're all dooomed!!
