IC: Ch. 10 Back into the Breach...uh I mean House

[BenTheRat]

OOC:   Next is what I call the combat plan phase. Between rounds, since you are so close together. You can post a couple of short sentences to either role-play or suggest a plan of action. I am still waiting on Sonny to make his idea roll. I'll do it for him this evening if he doesn't do it by then. It would change nothing for this round. As he would need the previous round come out of it anyway. But if he fails his roll he may act next round. I will also answer some questions here if it's something I think your character could determine in the heat of the moment. . Finally, all of you just witnessed a violent death of your friend Michael. That's a Sanity 0/d6 check. . RIP Michael. Sorry Silver Priest, you might have lived had you gotten first aid after your previous injury.

OOC,Idea[70]: 18 pass http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4415575/ San[43], fail http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4415577/ San loss: 3 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4415579/

[Silver Priest]

RIP,Oh well, fun while it lasted. Good luck everyone. Try to avoid a TPK. :cry:

[DrVendetta]

Sanity roll,[dice]0[/dice] which failed so here is the sanity damage [dice]1[/dice]

[Priest]

Scott, feeling terror rising within him screams at Sonny, who is limply holding his trumpet, "For Christ's sake blow the bloody thing!"

Sanity Roll,should read 54% (lost 1 last round)1d100 → [17] = (17) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4415689/

[BenTheRat]

Sonny,tough break man. You actually wanted to fail the Idea roll. As it is, you completely understand the significance of what Corbitt is and what is going on. You have lost it and are incapable of performing useful actions. You have broken down and are talking in a hysterical manner and laughing out loud.

.

Richard,Since you suffered 5 sanity points you are suffering from temp insanity. This round you will be working out what happened and you need to make an idea roll. This is the one roll you want to fail.

[DrVendetta]

Idea roll,[dice]0[/dice] ok so it looks like i am coo coo for coco puffs

[BenTheRat]

Dr. V,no this is what you wanted. Your idea is a 60. You failed which is what you wanted. I'll give you more feedback about what happened to you later.

[DrVendetta]

Ben,Kool let me know as I am lost on what happened there

[BenTheRat]

As everyone is stunned for a second, Corbitt pulls his hand out of Michael's stomach. His intestines spilling on the floor. Corbitt drops Michael to the floor, his blood still wet on Corbitt's teeth and face. Then looks over at the rest of you.
.

Richard,The horror of seeing your friend killed was more than Richard could stand for a minute. It took a few seconds for you to realize, it must be a trick. You've seen cons like this before. Michael might be hurt, but you are sure that's not his guts on the floor. OOC: you must spend the next round working this through your head, so you can't shoot next round, but you can do some role-play. Yelling hystericly would be in order.

[DrVendetta]

Richard stands stunned at the sight of the gutting of Micheal yelling over and over again "Dear God No, Michael"

[Priest]

With both Sonny and Richard losing it, and Michael tossed to the floor like an old rag Scott lines up his pistol once more, even though he realises the pointlessness of it.

Scott thinking:   Oh shit I hope the others have some sort of plan.

Again the heavy .45 booms out...

Firing,normal is 50% but I'm guessing point blank 1d100 → [66] = (66) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4416435/ Damage 1d10+2: 1d10+2 → [10,2] = (12) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4416436/ 12 points but I'm guessing that it does nothing.

[Occigon]

OOC,Ben, is the light from the main basement strikign Corbitt or not?

[Occigon]

Sanity Roll,Roll = 48 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4416552/ Just for clarification: I test against my current sanity, not my original sanity, is that right? Because it started at 55 and is now 44, so in one case I succeeded, in the other I failed. Presuming I failed... Sanity Loss = 1 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4416560/

[BenTheRat]

The light is definitely shining on Corbitt. This is why you can see the details so clearly.

OOC,yes you roll from your current sanity. So 44, you only lost 1 point that time, so the next time it will be 43. etc...

.

ooc,we can go ahead and start the next round. Feel free to take actions everyone.

[DrVendetta]

Ben,am I acting this round or am I still confused from what I saw?

[BenTheRat]

Richard,you may NOT act this round. You are in shock over your friends death and lose a round. you work it through and may act the next round. Remember a round is less than 5 seconds. it just seems like a long time here.

[DrVendetta]

Richard continues to stand motionless in shock staring at Michaels intestends laying on the floor quietly mumbling to himself "no please lord don't let this be happening"

[Priest]

Ben,I jumped the gun there slightly my shot was this round :D

[BenTheRat]

Priest,no problem, I got it. But I wanted you guys to have a chance to maybe come up with a plan for this round, but if you want to keep shooting, that is fine with me.
