Narrator: The delvers have fallen back to the road north of the lake, and are watching the ruined town over a mile away. The strange creatures continue to shamble about the town.
GM: As I understand it, you're sitting around waiting for Beltarne's mojo to come back so you can sneak into town, loot the place some more, and NOT get eaten by freaky mud zombies.
Minnizig: That's the theory!
Minnizig: When we are set upon by freaky mud zombies, I presume :D
Wolfgang: we're like to pretend it's a plan
Ghazeb: Ghazeb has signed off on this plan.
Marik: And then planning to return to town, see what we can do about selling loot, re-equip and set out again.
Minnizig: Hurray cash prizes!
Thasos: Is meditating.
Beltarne: Gobbo cave to try key, THEN town
** Ghazeb is being loud. **
GM: Alright. It's 1 pm or so. You're in your lovely lowlands camp, surrounded by lots of stubly bushes and towering oaks.
Minnizig: Hurray!
GM: Oh, yeah, the goblin cave. Right. (poorly concealed laughter). Sure, that's a plan.
GM: Any other actions on the 9th day?
Beltarne: ... I party?
Marik: Foraging to feed the party!
Beltarne: or no, that's off by a day
GM: Roll it, Marik.
Minnizig: I will plot. Something. I don't know what. My brains are toast.
Marik: Woodlands or Other?
GM: Other.
GM: Well.. hang a second.
Marik: Survival (Oceanic Shelf): [3d6.skill(15,0)] => [2,4,5] = 11 vs (15) or less Success! by 4
Marik: Just add 4 if it's Woodlands.
GM: There are two large bodies of trees - some about 1/4 mile away to the west, which you know look to have been farmed at one point - and a much larger forest to the southeast about 3/4 mile away.
GM: Do you want to go in either of them?
Marik: The latter had giant wasps.
Marik: I remember that.
Marik: I'll stay close.
GM: You find 4 meals of non-giant waspish bugs, then.
Marik: Mmm. Bugs.
Minnizig: "Bleh."
Ghazeb: "Hmmm."
** Minnizig enjoys her waybread and dried cow flesh. **
Marik: "Grubs are good for you. You can live for WEEKS on grubs."
** Ghazeb sniffs the bugs. **
Minnizig: Because it's NOT grubs.
** Marik shares grubs around, it's not like they keep. **
GM: That's 1 hour. Going to forage some more?
** Ghazeb eats one. **
** Beltarne happily dines on grubs **
Marik: Forage attempts increase the likelihood of random encounters, but we're tough.
Marik: Survival (Gas Giant Cloud Bank): [3d6.skill(15,-1)] => [3,3,2] = 8 vs (14) or less Success! by 6
GM: You return to camp with 4 meals of roots and leaves.
GM: Yummy!
Minnizig: And they're not even stinging nettles.
Marik: Mm. Tubers.
Minnizig: Amazing!
GM: As you heading back, you hear a faint humming noise. Turning, you spot a dozen giant wasps, headed your way.
Marik: "Oh hey. If I line up one of the small tubers next to one of the big grubs, you can barely tell them apart. Well, except for the wriggling."
Marik: I hide.
GM: Fine, you're within 50 yards of camp.
Ghazeb: "Ghazeb did not think adventuring would be like this."
Marik: Stealth: [3d6.skill(19,-5)] => [2,1,1] = 4 vs (14) or less Critical Success! [B556]
Marik: I *hide*.
** Ghazeb hides **
GM: Everyone else will eventually notice the wasps as they come closer.
Ghazeb: Stealth (15) [3d6.skill(15,0)] => [5,3,2] = 10 vs (15) or less Success! by 5
GM: You guys can roll Stealth at no penalty to hide.
Marik: ...Putting myself in the foliage lost me.
Minnizig: Stealth (13) [3d6.skill(13,0)] => [2,1,5] = 8 vs (13) or less Success! by 5
Beltarne: Stealth (12) [3d6.skill(12,0)] => [1,3,1] = 5 vs (12) or less Success! by 7
Minnizig: And they're at -1 to spot me cuz I'm wee.
Beltarne: Yar, dwarven ninja!
Wolfgang: I freeze and look like a statue
GM: Is Wolfgang naked?
Wolfgang: DX (14) [3d6.skill(14,-5)] => [3,2,2] = 7 vs (9) or less Success! by 2
Minnizig: I hope not.
Ghazeb: ((god I hope so))
Wolfgang: no, but maybe they don't know armor
Wolfgang: made default roll! woo!
GM: Move your tokens to wherever you want to be hiding. Behind tents or bushes is fine.
Beltarne: ((Find out something new about your adventuring companions every day. Hadn't realized Ghazeb was THAT kind of Swashbuckler))
Thasos: Snorts, stretches, wraps his chain around himself.
Minnizig: What direction the bugs coming form?
Minnizig: from?
Minnizig: I'd rather hide AWAY from them rather than toward.
GM: Southeast.
Minnizig: Also, prevailing mana levels?
Minnizig: Ok, hiding the other direction...
GM: Twisted!
Minnizig: The bushes on the map are actual bushes, aye?
Minnizig: ...
GM: Yes
** Minnizig writes down "No mana" **
GM: Wuss.
Narrator: A dozen buzzing, darting wasps, each the size of a large dog, skim over the treetops in a random pattern. As they come into the clearing, they spot the tents and bedrolls and turn toward them.
Thasos: Stamps his feet, makes a rude gesture.
GM: Marik, the wasps are passing over you.
Marik: I nock an arrow and let them go by, aiming at the rearmost.
** Minnizig readies her sword and buckler and mutters under her breath. **
GM: They pass over, diving toward the arrogant minotaur.
GM: You have an arrow knocked and everything.
** Ghazeb holds in a laugh. **
GM: Anyone else doing anything in the 2-3 seconds before this all goes down?
Marik: 2 seconds of aiming is all I need to fire.
** Ghazeb watches Thasos eagerly. **
Wolfgang: as long as I have my shield ready I'm good
Beltarne: I'm gonna rush the back of them once they close on Thasos. so in the meantime, no
GM: Weird looking statue, Wolfgang.
Wolfgang: I don't really expect it to work with Thasos standing in the open
GM: You should say something to him.
| 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [29] Ghazeb (on deck: [28] Thasos) |
** Ghazeb wonders how large Thasos is going to swell up. **
Ghazeb: turn and wait.
Ghazeb: ###
| 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Thasos (on deck: [28] Marik) |
Marik: ((Wasps are SM0, or -1?))
GM: Wasps are SM-1.
Thasos: Wait, prepping a swing attack against the first wasp to get within reach 4.
| 3) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Marik (on deck: [26] Gigantic Wasps) |
Marik: I have -6 for range, +3 for acc, +4 for 2s aim, -1 for size. Any cover penalties from my current position?
GM: Yes, -4 - there's a lot of brush and trees branches.
Marik: Fire on Wasp 10, aiming for the vitals. Bow: [3d6.skill(20,+3+4-6-1-4-3)] => [3,1,4] = 8 vs (13) or less Success! by 5
GM: Damage?
Marik: Damage (bodkin) is [1d6+4] => [6,4] = (10) pi(2)
Marik: Oh, that's gonna sting.
Narrator: Marik launches an arrow into the wasps as they fly pass, turning one of them into a shishkebab and it tumbles to the ground.
GM: You should have counted their speed (20) that round but I don't think it mattered.
| 4) YOUR TURN NOW:: [26] Gigantic Wasps (on deck: [25] Beltarne) |
Giant Wasps: 5 giant wasps swarm Thasos
Thasos: Strikes as they come in! [3d6.skill(18,-1-2)] => [2,1,1] = 4 vs (15) or less Critical Success! by 11 [B556] DA-2/-1
Thasos: [3d6.crit_hit()] => [2,1,5] = 8 Damage penetrating DR does double shock (-8 max) AND if it hits the victim's limb, it's crippled for 16-HT seconds (unless wound is enough to cripple permanently!). [B556]
Thasos: Damage is [2d6+3] => [2,3,3] = (8) crushing
Minnizig: Poor guy gets to be awesome while he isn't here.
Wolfgang: and maybe die awsomely
Narrator: Thasos uncoils, spinning his meteor hammer over the tents, smashing a wasp into a spray
Giant Wasps: 4 wasps (5-7 and 14) slam into Thasos [3d6.skill(14)] => [1,5,5] = 11 vs (14) or less Success! by 3
[3d6.skill(14)] => [2,3,4] = 9 vs (14) or less Success! by 5
[3d6.skill(14)] => [6,4,2] = 12 vs (14) or less Success! by 2
[3d6.skill(14)] => [1,2,1] = 4 vs (14) or less Critical Success! by 10 [B556]
Thasos: Parry! Acrododge! Dodge and Retreat! Say ow! [3d6.skill(11)] => [2,4,3] = 9 vs (11) or less Success! by 2
[3d6.skill(10,2)] => [6,2,5] = 13 vs (12) or less Failure! by 1

Minnizig: No luck for that Critsuccess?
Thasos: Don't have it.
Thasos: Sadly.
Thasos: Tries to Immovable Stance, but his Chi is disrupted!
Giant Wasps: Wasp 14 turns that Move and Slam into a Move and stab.
Giant Wasps: [3d6.crit_hit()] => [2,5,3] = 10 The blow inflicts normal damage. [B556]
Giant Wasps: Damage is [1d6+1] => [5,1] = (6) (2) piercing versus DR4 (2 tough skin)
Marik: What, retroactively?
GM: The attacks were made individually.
GM: I just rolled them enmasse for convenience.
Marik: Hokay.
GM: They're not going to keep ramming him after they've knocked him over.
Marik: Nope, that makes sense.
Thasos: Resist poison! [3d6.skill(13,-4)] => [3,2,6] = 11 vs (9) or less Failure! by 2
Thasos: Takes [4d6] => [1,6,5,2] = (14) toxic damage!
whispering to Wolfgang, Gargoyles are immune to giant wasp venom. Their stingers can't penetrate your skin, either, so you're pretty much invulnerable to them.
Giant Wasps: 2 more wasps land on Thasos.
Giant Wasps: 4 wasps turn slowly, moving toward Marik.
Giant Wasps: 2 more wasps fly near Thasos.

| 6) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Wolfgang (on deck: [24] Minnizig) |
Beltarne: Can I shield slam actually? That wasp wasn't there
Beltarne: when Iwas figuring out what I was doing
GM: You have to enter the hex to do a slam, and it is flying about 6' up.
Beltarne: Okay.
Wolfgang: oh, do I need to fly to remove penalties?
GM: If you plan to attack #8, yes.
Wolfgang: doing a move and attack, rapid strike, capped at 9 skill
GM: Or use your glaive.

| 7) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Minnizig (on deck: [29] Ghazeb) |
Minnizig: Drop the backpack and spends the turn wishing ferverently that she'd remembered any of the Musical Influence skills instead of forgetting them all completely while doing Character Generation. (All out Defense: Dual)
GM: Heh.
GM: Uhm, you don't have your backpack on while chilling in camp unless your insane. for what its worth.

[3d6.skill(9)] => [6,5,1] = 12 vs (9) or less Failure! by 3
GM: You can retreat against 1 of the first 2.
Marik: Retreat against the first, acrobatic against the second, extra effort against both.
Marik: I can't tell which I'm retreating from, so pick a hex and move me there.
Marik: Retreating Dodge: [3d6.skill(10,+3+2)] => [3,1,3] = 7 vs (15) or less Success! by 8
Marik: Acrobatics: [3d6.skill(14,0)] => [4,3,6] = 13 vs (14) or less Success! by 1
Marik: Acrobatic Dodge: [3d6.skill(10,+2+2)] => [4,1,6] = 11 vs (14) or less Success! by 3
Marik: Some of those are probably runaround or flank, but MoS is good on all of 'em.
Giant Wasps: 2 wasps swarm Wolfgang, stabbing with stingers [3d6.skill(14)] => [5,3,2] = 10 vs (14) or less Success! by 4

Beltarne: Axe * Primary parry [3d6.skill(14,+2)] => [1,6,5] = 12 vs (16) or less Success! by 4
GM: It's a crit miss for the monster.
Wolfgang: Critical Miss [3d6.crit_miss()] => [2,6,6] = 14 A swung weapon flies from hand 5 yards (50% chance straight forward/backward) anyone on the target of the flying weapon makes a DX roll or takes half-damage; a thrust or ranged weapon is dropped (& a cheap weapon breaks). [B556]
GM: Uhm. Both Ghazeb and Beltarne should pick up another attack - all the wasps are Step and Attacking and should have uncapped attacked.
GM: [3d6.crit_unarm()] => [1,3,1] = 5 You hit a solid object (wall, floor, etc.) & take crushing damage = your thrusting damage - your DR (EXCEPTION: if opponent using impaling weapon, you fall on it & take damage based on your ST). If attacking an opponent who is using an impaling weapon, you fall on his weapon. You suffer the weapon's normal damage based on your ST. [B557]

Beltarne: Well, then, dodge is gonna be retreating, okay?
Ghazeb: I did parry I thought
Giant Wasps: Jams its stinger into Wolfgang's axe haft for [1d6+1] => [6,1] = (7)(2) damage
Ghazeb: (10 people up)
Minnizig: He rolled a parry up around Beltarne, right after Thasos joined the room
Beltarne: [3d6.skill(11,-1+3)] => [6,3,5] = 14 vs (13) or less Failure! by 1
Giant Wasps: Blowing it up.
Beltarne: Boo.
GM: Ghazeb has 2 parries, these guys are using strikers so you can't damage them on the parry.
Beltarne: Ah crap, forgot feverish on that
Beltarne: Ah well
GM: Though you can totally damage them if they go for the grapple.
GM: Where are we?
GM: Beltarne got grappled?
GM: Wolfgang made 2 defenses, I think.
Beltarne: Yes
Wolfgang: 3
Beltarne: Or stabbed, your choice
Wolfgang: hmm, does the parry vs. grapple hurt it?
Beltarne: Kinda unclear with the added attack
Ghazeb: ( do I need another parry, I thought the second 1 missed))
GM: And Ghazeb... okay,
GM: Wolfgang can parry for damage.
GM: Ghazeb is fine, all parries good.
Wolfgang: Axe [2d6+8] => [1,1,8] = (10) cut
GM: Beltarne fended off the 2 stingers, but did get grabbed.

GM: I guess -6 if you don't use the axe.
Beltarne: Break free, then, I think
GM: Roll it!

GM: Marik skewers them and they drop.
| 3) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Thasos (on deck: [26] Gigantic Wasps) |
Marik: ###
GM: Okay, Thasos needs to roll some combination of resisting Bad Temper, Berserk, Major Wound, and Unconscious.
GM: I don't really care what order he rolls them in.
GM: Other than if he isn't berserk, he'll need to make 2 resist unconscious rolls.
Minnizig: It's worded as a self control roll.
GM: Yes?
Minnizig: Does he have to ressit Berserk or can he voluntarily fail?
Minnizig: Like with other SCs?
GM: He can definitely not resist the Bad Temper, which automatically triggers Berserk.
GM: So I'll be a Supreme Court Justice and duck the hard question.
Thasos: so voluntary failure then?
GM: You can voluntarily fail the Bad Temper roll, yes.
Thasos: let's do that then
** Thasos see the world turn red. **
Thasos: ^sees
GM: You were in horrible pain last round. You can do stuff this round.
GM: I suggest an Acrobatic or even all-out Acrobatic stand.
Thasos: sounds like thasos to me
Thasos: Acrobatics (15) [3d6.skill(15,0)] => [4,5,3] = 12 vs (15) or less Success! by 3

Ghazeb: Scimitar * swing parry [3d6.skill(16,0+2)] => [1,3,4] = 8 vs (18) or less Success! by 10

| 7) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Minnizig (on deck: [29] Ghazeb) |
| 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [29] Ghazeb (on deck: [28] Marik) |
Wolfgang: bisected!
GM: Ghazeb rolls HT for Consciousness before doing anything else.
Ghazeb: AoD
Ghazeb: HT (13) [3d6.skill(13,0)] => [2,6,6] = 14 vs (13) or less Failure! by 1
GM: No, you decide to calmly fall over and take a litle nap.
** Ghazeb falls to the ground in a swollen mass. **
GM: That you may never wake up from muh-hah-hah!

Marik: Damage is [1d6+3] => [4,3] = (7) imp
GM: You totally kill the wasp that is carrying you 7 meters above the ground. This is not as happy a decision as you thought it might be.
Marik: Acrobatics?
GM: Yeah, totally.
Marik: Acrobatics: [3d6.skill(14,0)] => [6,2,5] = 13 vs (14) or less Success! by 1
Marik: Should be -1, but I'll take success by 0.
Marik: DF2 has 9 yards at 3d?
GM: Effective fall is 3 yards, [1d6+2] => [4,2] = (6) crushing against location [3d6] => [4,3,5] = (12)
| 3) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Thasos (on deck: [26] Gigantic Wasps) |
Marik: Hm. As soon as I figure out what location 12 is, I'll tell you which one of those is being rerolled with luck.
GM: Roll self-control.
GM: Marik: location 12 is the left arm.
Wolfgang: left arm
Marik: Damage roll, then.
Beltarne: 6 cr
GM: [1d6+2] => [3,2] = (5) and [1d6+2] => [5,2] = (7)
Marik: Nono, reroll the damage roll. Luck.
Thasos: er... self-control is what? will?
Beltarne: ah, lucking it
Marik: Bah! Ahwell.
GM: 15 for your Berserk, I think.

Thasos: HT (13) [3d6.skill(13,0)] => [3,2,1] = 6 vs (13) or less Success! by 7
Marik: ((On the bright side, it's pure HP loss instead of, like, crippled limbs.))
** Thasos 's shakes his head to clear it. **
Thasos: HT (13) [3d6.skill(13,0)] => [1,2,1] = 4 vs (13) or less Critical Success! [B556]
Wolfgang: ((you'll be fine))
Beltarne: Nice
** Thasos seems a bit unsteady at first, but shrugs it off. **
GM: Hey, heal [1d6-1] => [5,-1] = (4) points of damage for the critical.
Beltarne: Combat over?
Thasos: that puts me at what?
Wolfgang: "Thasos, you need to be more careful or start wearing some real armor."
** Marik gets up, dusts himself off, works his shoulder and arm a little, grins, and begins collecting wasp corpses to drag them back to camp while whistling a cheerful tune. **
Narrator: The minotaur snaps out of his blood rage, looking a little sick and in pain but not as bad as everyone thought when the blood was spraying everywhere.
Narrator: Now his blood is mostly oozing, dripping, and flowing everywhere.
** Ghazeb gasps for air **
GM: [32-13] => 19
GM: Thasos is at -19 damage.
GM: So he's dying.
Beltarne: First aid x 2 for Ghazeb and Thasos, Major Healing x 2 for same, okay if I roll, Mark?
Thasos: ((wow, fully negative, woot!))
GM: As is Ghazeb.
GM: They both have a Major Healing from this morning's activities in town.
** Thasos looks over at Ghazeb and smirks, then looks grim faced. **
GM: But it's still your High Holy Day.
GM: Knock yourself out.
Beltarne: What's combined modifiers?
GM: +2.
Beltarne: First Aid/TL3 (Humanoid) (15) [3d6.skill(15,0)] => [5,4,3] = 12 vs (15) or less Success! by 3 Conditional: +1 from 'First Aid Kit'
GM: and -3 per additional healing.
Beltarne: First Aid/TL3 (Humanoid) (15) [3d6.skill(15,0)] => [1,4,5] = 10 vs (15) or less Success! by 5 Conditional: +1 from 'First Aid Kit'
** Wolfgang goes to check on Marik, and then help haul back wasps when he sees he is fine **
GM: Ghazeb heals [1d6-1] => [4,-1] = (3), Thasos heals [1d6-1] => [5,-1] = (4)
Beltarne: [1d6] => [1] = (1)
Beltarne: Thanks, Mark
GM: oops, +1 on both of those.
Beltarne: Major Healing (Holy) (15) [3d6.skill(15,-3+1)] => [6,5,3] = 14 vs (13) or less Failure! by 1 Includes: +4 from 'Power Investiture (Holy)'
GM: ???
Beltarne: Major Healing (Holy) (15) [3d6.skill(15,-3+1)] => [2,4,2] = 8 vs (13) or less Success! by 5 Includes: +4 from 'Power Investiture (Holy)'
GM: You're at +5 for the High Holy Day, I thought.
Beltarne: Sorry, thanks
Beltarne: Like I said, scatter
Marik: "I feel great! How are you guys doing?"
Beltarne: scatterbrained
Beltarne: so, 8 FP from me, 8 HP for both of them
GM: They're both still disabled. Going to try again?
Wolfgang: "Fine. the twins are a bit beat up, again."
GM: Also, is Marik going out for more hunting?
Ghazeb: (I gaot 8 total or 12?))
Ghazeb: got
GM: 12 total, Ghazeb.
** Wolfgang hopes we can eat wasp **
Marik: Marik is totally not going out hunting again.
Beltarne: Erm, anyone wanna lend me some FP here?
GM: Dude, just wait a few minutes and try again, they're not going anywhere.
Wolfgang: "Tell me these cook up good once you get the poison things out!"
Beltarne: Ah, good point
** Wolfgang thinks unless you know steal ST you're on your own **
Beltarne: I take a breather
Beltarne: Ritual spellcasting, or whatever
Beltarne: takes longer but I can take a FP each, per casting
GM: 40 minutes past, roll again.
Beltarne: Major Healing (Holy) (15) [3d6.skill(15,-6+5)] => [1,5,1] = 7 vs (14) or less Success! by 7 Includes: +4 from 'Power Investiture (Holy)'
Beltarne: Major Healing (Holy) (15) [3d6.skill(15,-6+5)] => [4,4,6] = 14 vs (14) or less Success! by 0 Includes: +4 from 'Power Investiture (Holy)'
Beltarne: 8 more for the both of yas.
GM: Ghazeb and Thasos are down to 10 and 11 damage each.
Beltarne: And before we bed down I can do healing slumber
GM: Or Minnizig can cast Minor Healing! which I will totally handwave for another 3 points.
GM: And then the healing slumbers.
Wolfgang: heh, do it now and make them take watch
Beltarne: Right
Beltarne: I can do minor healing too
Thasos: i'm assuming we're camping now, so i'll do my meditation roll
Beltarne: major is just more effective
GM: well.
Thasos: Meditation (9) [3d6.skill(9,0)] => [1,1,1] = 3 vs (9) or less Critical Success! [B556]
GM: after Beltarne is done casting spells, it's about 4:30
GM: and apparently Thasos' near death experience has focused his mind.
Beltarne: Okay, so we know anything about wasps being worth cashy monies?
GM: Anyone have Naturalist?
GM: Or Poison?
Ghazeb: "we could sell the poison."
GM: Or Connoisseur (Hides, Inner Organs, Monster Liquids)?
Beltarne: Negative
Marik: Scout! doesn't cover Naturalist.
Marik: Alas.
Wolfgang: "Doesn't it go bad?"
** Thasos centers himself, filling his mind with purity. When he opens his eyes, his body gives off a powerful wave of heat. **
Beltarne: ((Dumb))
Ghazeb: "Ghazeb does not know."
Wolfgang: Connoisseur (Weapons) -? maybe?
whispering to Ghazeb, You think you know how to carve these things for money, actually.
GM: Wolfgang... I'll allow it, but you didn't make the skill roll.
Marik: ((Scout! is 'practical wilderness lore' - "how to not get lost and survive". Druid! is 'theoretical wilderness lore' - "how things work", which includes "how to survive", but not "how to not get lost". I'm pretty content with that division.))
Ghazeb: "Look everyone stand back, Ghazeb will take care of it."
Beltarne: Huh. Clerics don't have Physician
Beltarne: Boo
Wolfgang: I wanted to know the penalty first, or if it's even allowed
GM: Don't they have Esoteric Medicine?
** Ghazeb begins to harvest what ever is of value. **
GM: It's allowed, Wolfgang.
Beltarne: Something else for the list for when we get back to Polisberg
Wolfgang: -what?
Beltarne: They do.
Marik: Esoteric Medicine is Physician, Beltarne.
Marik: Physician defaults to EM.
GM: What Marik said.
GM: I think -4 or so, Wolfgang?
Wolfgang: Connoisseur (Weapons) (11) [3d6.skill(11,-4)] => [5,5,4] = 14 vs (7) or less Failure! by 7
Beltarne: poison defaults to physician, not esoteric medicine though
Beltarne: so no double defaulting
GM: Ghazeb, roll Poison to retreieve.
Wolfgang: ((heh, clearly I think the stingers are the key))
Marik: On the other hand, Scout! covers survival. Survival tells me whether things are good (and safe) to eat. How are giant wasps on the 'tasty food-o-meter'?
GM: For purposes of this game, Esoteric Medicine == Physician.
Ghazeb: do not have oit
Thasos: ((technically it would be the poison sacs, not the stingers, that would have value i'd think))
Marik: So Beltarne gets a default poisons roll off of Esoteric Medicine. :D
Marik: Which is cool!
Beltarne: Should I roll, or does Ghazeb have anything I might get from a success?
GM: Marik's opinion of giant wasps is that big bugs are just like little bugs, but with a better meat to exoskeleton ratio.
GM: Well, Ghazeb said he was going to do it.
GM: And he's Overconfident.
Ghazeb: yup
GM: So he's going to do it unless he resists and consents to advising Beltarne on how to do it.
Ghazeb: Unless you stop him he will
Beltarne: Esoteric Medicine (Holy) (14) [3d6.skill(14,-3)] => [3,6,5] = 14 vs (11) or less Failure! by 3
Beltarne: Disregard that roll
GM: Ghazeb, roll Poisons (IQ-6)
Beltarne: poison sacks are removed with poison or surgery
Ghazeb: np
Beltarne: ?
Ghazeb: IQ (10) [3d6.skill(10,-6)] => [6,2,5] = 13 vs (4) or less Failure! by 9
GM: Or roll to Resist...
GM: okay.
GM: When Ghazeb stabilizies to "came move and think" he goes around claiming he knows how to milk Giant Wasp poison glands, 'cause he saw this little old wise man do it in Shigrad.
GM: Apparently it involves spreading toxins all over your fur.
Beltarne: Ah.
Beltarne: "Ah well, I'm sure that won't make all your fur fall out or turn pink."
GM: It doesn't seem to actually yield a whole lot of toxins, though.
** Thasos suppresses a laugh at the thought of a pink Ghazeb. **
