Alex:
Alex is too nervous with all those insects and fail his task and is also bitten!
OOC You loose 1 hp.

Harry:
Harry avoids the first attack of the swarm; when they attacked again, they faced the solid netting and got entrapped. Harry was satisfied... until he saw that nobody was piloting the boat!

Crowley:
Crowley was trying to light the fore but was too distracted with the bugs and wasn't able to make the fire and got bitten too.
OOC: you loose 1 hp.

Butch:
Butch also fail to improvise a weapon and gets bitten.
OOC: Loose 1 hp.


Several porters jump to the waters... luckily, the piranhas are still busy eating the first porter. But there is still too much chaos.

You still have the penalty of 5% in dex. But you can use luck.

[Mr. Handy]

Harry goes to get Butch and protect him with the mosquito netting, knowing that he has some skill at piloting boats. "Come on, we have to get to the wheel!" he says, guiding him there.

[Mephistophilis]

Suffering copious bites on his outstretched arms Alex drops the smouldering cloth. 'Bloody insects' he curses, swatting the backs of his hands. Seeing the commotion on deck and in the water he scrabbles around for his makeshift torch.

Alex Dex 50-5=45,[dice]0[/dice]

OOC,I'll spend the 12 luck

Alex Dodge: 25,[dice]1[/dice]

OOC:   ETA Dodge

[Snapper]

Crowley battles on, cursing all the way.

Dodge 47%,[dice]0[/dice]

Modified Dex 70%,[dice]1[/dice]

OOC:   Hello malaria and dengue fever!

[Starspawn338]

OOC,Dodge 42 [dice]0[/dice] Dexterity -5 (50) [dice]1[/dice] I'm not sure if Harry's netting is protecting me.

Butch will gratefully accept Harry's help and work his way to the boat wheel to ensure that they don't crash onto shore in the confusion.

[kabukiman]

Alex looses another 1 hp but sends away the mosquito with some fire.

Harry guides Butch to the wheel.

Butch manages to go to the boat wheel.
(OOC: Make a navigation roll).

Crowley is bitten again (loose 1 hp) but he finally solves the problem of the mosquito attacking him by making an improvised torch.

The boat is now less infested with the bugs; any new roll has now a bonus of 20% in dodge and dex; Butch doesn't need to roll any of that, he has Harry protecting him (but Harry still need to make the rolls).

[Mr. Handy]

Harry is easily able to avoid the remaining mosquitoes.

OOC,Dodge roll (65% +20 = 85% skill) to avoid the mosquitoes: [dice]0[/dice] DEX roll (95% +20 = 115% skill) to keep my balance: [dice]1[/dice] Can I roll Navigate for him? I brought [b]Butch[/b] to the wheel because he has the Pilot Boat skill, which I don't, but I have a high Navigate skill and he doesn't have any points in Navigate.

[Snapper]

Crowley focusses on keeping himself bite free and driving the bugs from the boat. His arms are coming out in swellings from bites.

Mod Dodge 67%,[dice]0[/dice]

Mod Dex 95%,[dice]1[/dice]

OOC,Navigate 10 [dice]0[/dice] Pilot Boat 35 [dice]1[/dice]

"Where are we going now?" Butch says as he takes over the wheel.

[Mephistophilis]

Alex takes his makeshift torch and wafts it towards the remaining insects, wincing at the pain from his bites.

Alex Modified Dodge: 45,[dice]0[/dice]

Alex Modified Dex: 70,[dice]1[/dice]

[kabukiman]

OOC: Harry: you can roll whatever s more favorable. But it seems Butch passed the test.

Butch take the wheel and he manage to avoid that the boat collide against the border of the river just at the last moment.; Harry keep some mosquitoes away; his other companions aren't so lucky and they are bitten again.. After a while, the mosquitoes aren't able to keep the speed of the boat and are left behind.


OOC: Everyone who has been bitten once, must make a easy constitution roll; those that were bitten twice, must do a normal constitution test; anyone bitten 3 times must do a difficult test.

[Mephistophilis]

Alex Con: 50,[dice]0[/dice], am I looking for a hard success i.e. rolling against 25%?

Alex does not feel well.

[kabukiman]

Alex Con: 50,[dice]232564:0[/dice], am I looking for a hard success i.e. rolling against 25%?

Alex does not feel well.

yes, you are.

[Snapper]

Crowley:

Difficult Con 32%,[dice]0[/dice]

The nicotine and whisky in Crowley's veins may have actually helped for a change...

[Starspawn338]

OOC,Con 65 [dice]0[/dice] What is an easy Con vs a normal Con?

"Is everyone okay?" Butch shouts out to those still on the boat. "Do we need to circle around for anyone in the water?"

[Mr. Handy]

"I'm fine," says Harry, who hasn't been stung. He scans the water to see if anyone has gone overboard.

OOC,[b]Butch[/b] succeeded, so there's no need for me to roll Navigate.

[Mephistophilis]

Fr Malone tries to ignore the rising feeling of fever and sweat as he roots through the first aid kit to find some dressings for those who have been injured.

OOC,Can I do some First Aid on myself/others?

[Snapper]

Crowley regards the burnt remains of his handkerchief with irritation. "It's a good thing I packed a dozen." He has a look at his collection of mosquito bites. "Damn tropics." Crowley fishes out his pipe and lights it up.

[kabukiman]

OOC: Ok, I'm very sorry, but I wasn't clear. I said easy, normal and hard and I should have said: regular, hard and extreme. So since it was my fault, I'm eliminating the need to an extreme success, so everyone (except Harry) need a hard success.
Crowley passed and feels ok (but he lost 3 hp anyway). Butch failed: and will suffer a penalty of 5 points in every physical characteristic in the next days (and loose 3 hp). Alex didn't passed the test, so has also a penalty of 5 points in every physical characteristic in the next days (and also looses 3 hp). Sorry again.


There are several porters/guides who are swimming and asking for help, others are running at the riverside asking that you go fetch them. The mosquitoes are left behind and so the piranãs... for now.
