Call of Colthulhu: The Baltimare Case (PT|PbP|Filled)

...Psst, Bronymous, it's your turn.

2 Questions:
1, did the giver roll to save against his ongoing and fail, or forget to roll? And did he take the damage?

2: "Your next two attacks that have two or fewer targets deal +1d12 damage." DM ruling, do I roll 1d12 individually on each attack, or roll it once now and apply that result to both attacks?

It is still taking damage.
You roll separately, I like to rule that the dice is applied per attack.

Sounds good.

Hey wait, whats the rule on ongoing status effects after you're KO'd? If they continue, I should have made some saving rolls...

Lets say you still have to roll, as fire doesn't go out easy.

Bronymous, did you make saving throws on the turn that you got knocked out?

I didn't, I forgot to. Generally that's a rule, if you forget then it didn't happen.

Thus ends the first proper boss fight that I personally built. Any thoughts or feedback? Was the enemy too strong? Did it drag too long?

I think it was pretty well built- 2 ko's toward the end to make it desperate. I'd be a little disappointed that I didn't get to overkill it, but that was my own fault for running my turn progression incorrectly.

I'm also glad I didn't die. That would have sucked.

When you're ready, please post what you've changed/added/taken away for the level up. You are allowed to add or take away abilities to change your line up, within reason of course. Game will resume once updates have been made.

Reposting sheet, I took:

Applejack of All Trades for 3 Ability Points

Unacceptable Trait

Vengeful Talisman for 1000 item gold.

Reposting Sheet

Utility Talents: Removing “You Don’t Know Where It’s Been” (3), adding “Applejack of All Trades” (3) and “Nightwatch” (2) (IC: Upgrading glasses to see in the dark.)

Combat Trait: Nothing Up My Sleeve

Combat Items: Replacing “Lifebound Armor” (1000) for “Hierophant Armor” (2000)

Reposting Sheet

Abilities: Gained Dispel Magic (3)

Combat Items: Sold Spellbook, Amulet of Protection, Bought Energizing Amulet

Combat Traits: Rapid Recovery.

As for reasoning...Learned Dispel Magic (Because recent experiences with hostile magic would make Aurora leery of getting mentally influenced yet again, and OOCly we can't count on a MP for Laughter being available.
The combat front? Well...More useful attack spamming. Also it suits her to have her takeaway from fighting the Giver be "So apparently zapping eldritch horrors with enough weaponized crazy/magic WORKS!" while completely ignoring the whole 'everyone almost died' part of that assessment.

Oh yeah, if you want IC reasoning for my stuff- he's not magic or technical, so has nothing to develop besides being more alert and more ready for anything. Also, hit harder, more often.

Can I ask you guys to slow down a little? I really can't keep up with all the posts, especially since most of them are walls of text that I don't have time to read through in detail to add my two cents. You're moving through points in the conversation without giving any time for Flashpoint to chime in on important stuff.

You guys are doing it again.

Sorry, I'll try to stop asking too many questions in a row.

So... besides the two underground floors, its a one story building?

It's a one story building but the parts above ground is essentially just a room with a staircase leading down.

Ok quick question before this next post. If I have him flap up and then fly at the door (Brawn), would that count as a "check made to fly"? for the purposes of:

Flying Ace (3)
Prerequisite: Cloud Chaser
You may roll twice on all skill checks made to fly and take either result.

The drink tastes like whatever you want it to taste like.
Go wild!

NOTE REGARDING UPDATE:
As long as there aren't significant objections, I would like for players to update their sheets accordingly. Points freed up can be used to take any skills as you see fit, etc, etc.

As "Applejack of All Trades" no longer does what it did before, I will be removing it and saving the points for something else down the line.

Same here, nothing I want to spend those points on right now.
