Dice Chronicle of the Scavenger Lands (Exalted 3E) - OOC

Not really, I'm afraid. I lost track some time back and catching up seemed rather daunting.

Sorry to hear that.

Still, I wouldn't say we've done much. We've set off down the river, and we're currently launching an attack on a fortress/outpost.

Apologies. A pair of business trips in November followed by December being December, followed by another pair of trips in January meant this fell off my radar. I'm actually sitting in a delayed plane right now, waiting to leave on my second trip.

If a sorcerous Eclipse would be useful, I'll see if I can catch up next week. Otherwise, sorry for being lame and it is in no way a reflection on your game or you. As Sherwood or Psychie can attest, I'm the lame one who gets periodically overwhelmed with work and falls behind.

I don't consider getting bogged down with work to be something that makes someone "lame".

 

[Epiphany]

I appreciate that and yet I've contributed to games stalling before, again as Sherwood and Psychie can attest to.

Thanks for being a good sport about it, either way. I'll see if I can catch up soon.

You will need to use either a Persuade, Bargain or Threaten action if you want to talk your way past the guards.

Would my die pool for a Persuade roll be Manipulation and Larceny, since I'm planning on lying my ass off to these guards?

Sorry, but no. Manipulation and Social, I'm afraid.

Edit: As a concession, I'll let you use your "Fitting into the Crowd" specialty, seeing as you're posing as a guard.

 

[Sherwood]

I don't suppose I get any stunt dice for my effort?

No, you can have stunt dice if you want.

Edit: Though for what it's worth, you did already beat the guard's Resolve.

 

[jaydude]

Gonna go ahead and give Sherwood 2 Solar xp for all the sneaking around.

 

[jaydude]

Sherwood
Did you try to kill both guards? Or just knock them out?

 

[Sherwood]

I'll go ahead and kill them.

 

[jaydude]

Thanks. I wanted to be sure of exactly how things would start going to shit.

 

[D. Rex]

Woo! Things about to go down!

 

[Sherwood]

lol Do I need to make any rolls?

 

[jaydude]

Yes. Roll Wits + Occult.

 

[Sherwood]

Rolling.

 

[jaydude]

Ailera is unable to recognize the voice.

 

[Sherwood]

Ah, well. Lets see what he says to her now.

 

[Psychie]

And all I'm doing is waiting for the gate to be opened so I can send up a signal arrow to notify the troops. <grabs popcorn and sits back>

Don't worry. I'll have that sorted soon enough.

 

[Psychie]

Uh oh! Shit's about to go down!

 

[Sherwood]

The Sidereal is attempting to instill a Minor Principle of "Mortals can only live for so long". With a use of three motes of Peripheral Essence, he reduces the target number of his die to four. As a result, he has eight successes here.

So now I have this on my sheet, correct? I just want to make sure I'm doing this right.

Yes.

 

[Sherwood]

Ok. Adding it now.

 

[D. Rex]

With the gate being open. Is it time for the other exalts to act?
