The Storm - OOC

[Marras]

Of course you're the GM but wasn't there a rule that gave advantage or additional die if you got a certain amount of ranks in some helping skill? If you still think it's better that I roll Larceny, I'll do it.

Does my SA fire?

[Korbel]

Right! Totally forgot about this rule. Well, I had this feeling that I'm doing something wrong, but I was too lazy too check the rulebook. Good that you are vigilant.
Yes your SA should fire. Actually the first or the third can apply, depending on how Hans approaches this. Anyway you get Advantage.

[Marras]

So, do I get +1 or +2 dice for associative skill (that is does burglary expertise come to play here)?

Also, do I get this bonus just for climbing or for stealth, too?

[Korbel]

Not entirely clear for me. Can't decide. I'll leave it up to you. Do what makes the most sense for you and your character.

[Marras]

I would say that +1 dice to Stealth would apply (base Larceny bonus) as it is about choosing the best route of approach and +2 for climbing as you could say that getting over the wall is part of burglary (Burglary expertise). If that is ok, I'll go with those. If not, just disregard the last (Stealth) or last two (climbing) dice from roll results. I'll write the description after results

Stealth roll : [dice seed=11151 secure=7752ce66_0]9d10[/dice] + exploding die [dice seed=30448 secure=004a61d2_2]1d10[/dice]

Climbing roll : [dice seed=53481 secure=07b15c35_1]10d10[/dice]

"Uh, we have captured this white devil for Father Georgius. He has already killed some of us, and said he wanted to kill Father Georgius too. He had an ally as well who must only be moments behind us. Quickly, please let us in!"

I guess we will need some Social / Manipulation (Persuasion) rolls? Opposed by their Willpower / Cunning, or maybe Willpower / Guard Profession (if this is possible, but I think it makes sense). Taking Point can be used, if you can justify and role-play this.
(before you ask: yes, your SA will burn... actually every one of you has a solid reason to get inside, so grab this Advantage for the roll)

Taking Point makes perfect sense. Ruthard will contribute +2 dice with his Manipulation/Intimidate, as he will be twisting in Twinscars grip and curse Karl, Twinscars, the guards, father Georgius, and his bad luck. (Just wait till I get free again and you will all suffer...)

[Korbel]

Sounds great. Twinscars has got Intimidation expertise too, he can provide additional 2 dice. Stempest, time for you to roll.

The guards will roll: Willpower 3 + Guard 3 + Taking Point 1 = 7 dice

What about Hilde? Can't she add a die too as she pleads to open the gate?

[Korbel]

She is waiting to resort to violence
Seriously though, she's got no applicable skill. But, you know, thanks to her Stempest can fire his SA, that's always something

[Stempest]

Just as well you gentlemen decided to help, because otherwise I'm rolling on 2 dice!

As it is, 6 dice at advantage:
[dice seed=35149 secure=5f473700_0]6d10[/dice]

Oh darn.

[Marras]

Your luck is almost as good as mine

[Korbel]

Your luck is almost as good as mine

Let's see what about my luck...

[dice seed=62590 secure=bf9072ee_0]7d10[/dice]
expl? [dice seed=3864 secure=902cc8c2_1]3d10[/dice]

------------

No comment, LOL.
7 successes. I'' think about some complications. Major complications.

[Marras]

Bloody hell!

[Marras]

How many guards there are at the gate? Is Hans at his OP already?
