OK.  What do I need to roll for my defense roll?  :o

6 or better.

Done.  :)

Welcome to the game, Quellan Cet!

Hello newcomer !

Hey, GM, if I can do a messy enough death to the leader (will tone it done on the description), can I try to intimidate the remaining thugs?

I'll have you roll for that. When we get to that point I'll give you a DT for what that will take.

In reply to the Game Master (msg # 64):

I was just asking if it was fine. Perfect !

Howdy Sybella!  I've just gotten my character done, so I'm ready to jump in when the GM is ready!  :)

Arf. Shouldn't have been so efficient.
I'll accept the intrusion. One xp for Sybella !

In reply to Serren (msg # 67):

Thanks!

One of my bandits has a whip.  What weapon does the other one have?  Is it a small axe, like Serren's bandits?

Which weapon is a bigger threat?

Can Effort be used to increase the damage from Onslaught?

The other one has a knife. They all do about the same amount of damage (2) except the Ace which does 4.

You can increase Onslaught damage with Effort. You do need to declare with your roll whether you're expending Effort on reducing difficulty or increasing damage.

Which bandit has the ace?

How much do you have to spend for Effort to get how much increase for Damage?  :o

Both bandits attacking Serren have axes.

At Tier 1 Effort always costs 3 in the ability being used, so 3 Intellect (minus whatever Edge you have in Intellect) to deal 3 additional points of damage using Onslaught.

How big and tough do the new bandits look?  More like the deceased leader, or more like the usual minions?

More like the others, level 2 so they only have 6 health each.

The rod and the crystal are both oddities.  Your knowledge in numenera doesn't help you glean any function or use currently, but they both appear to certainly carry some intrinsic value.

I won't post until tomorrow evening, probably.

I'm going to wait until Serren and Sybella say if they want to be healed before moving forward as they're both down in stats.

Charis just restored four points to Serren, but I don't know how many he needs.  So she asked him IC.  :)

I don't know how much Sybella needs.

Charis will probably heal herself a bit as well after tasting the lash of the whip, since she now has a rather painful welt...  :o

EDIT: BTW, would Scan help us identify the oddities?  O_o

I’m down a bunch of Speed and Intellect from using effort with Dodge and Esoteries but my Might is full. Can you heal Speed or Intellect?

You might get a tad more enforcement from a scan, but not a tremendous amount.

Yes, I can heal any stat pool, though each stat pool requires a separate healing attempt.  :)

Each healing attempt increases the difficulty level of subsequent healing attempts on that patient until the patient has rested.  :o

Well I use Intellect more than Speed but I am much lower in Speed.  If I can stay out of melee I’d say Intellect? But I also don’t want to drain your resources ether.  If you have the spare points I could use an Intellect heal I suppose.  Thanks!

No worries on my end, as I have no limit.  It doesn't cost me anything to heal (unless I expend Effort).

The only limitation is that the difficulty of subsequent attempts keeps increasing, so if you get injured again later, it will be harder and harder to heal you further until after you rest.
