Pulling my hair out debugging, but otherwise fine.

Caduceus has made a call-out on the radio, so I was sort of waiting for someone to respond...

In reply to DeusEx (msg # 885):

Kate also has left a question open for the other two to respond to, so I'm not sure she can respond to the radio if Hairy and the Doc don't say anything...

Uggghhh.... liffeeee... Whyy... At least it's past the end of the fiscal year. In theory (?) work stuff gets milder.

I'm just going to let you guys keep talking/moving until all/some subset of you get together.  So far, the snake doesn't seem inclined to eat anyone and WD hasn't yet caught up to Dr. Fukuhara.

Is Caduceus's spirit able to find and guide Hairy and Kate and company toward Saunders's location?

Thanks for the reminder

Do stun penalties apply to knowledge rolls?

Based on the rules, I'd say yes.  However, seeing as I'm feeling generous, you can cut your modifiers in half. :>

Rolls are in the dice log, including Duck’s security roll. However I’m on my phone and it’s a pain to post them over in this format. Hope that’s ok.

I was hoping to get Hairy and/or Kate's reply first (in case either of them knew what the snake creature was), but I plan to have Caduceus float over and cast a second levitate spell on the petrified person. Assuming he can get there before the mystery-people show up, or before the basilisk looks for its seconds.

In reply to Caduceus (msg # 894):

Hmmm... Kate doesn't have zoology.  Would Magic Background work for this?

Magic Background is certainly worth a shot.  As I look at Hairy's skills, probably nothing applicable there.

Fixed my post boss.

I'll be posting up until end of day on the 27th.  Then I'll go dark until sometime until Jan. 2.  Hope everyone has an awesome holiday season and a happy New Year :>

Have a great Holiday all!

Caduceus will try to conjure a new river spirit at sundown, but I probably won't make a post until after Christmas. I have a couple of busy days ahead of me. But Happy Holidays everyone! And thanks for the Christmas karma!

Hmm, thanks for the Christmas karma. Question- is it the first karma we've received in over a year, or have I missed some somewhere?

There was Karma for En Route (post 167) in May of last year.  This last bit has taken us a while.

Thanks boss, I'll have to add that one in as well.

I'll give another day for WD and/or Hairy to post then I'll move things along.

Yo boss, do Kate or I get a bonus to this roll, since I made it a point for Duck to grab Kate and hold onto something?

How far are we from shore? Would it help at all for Caduceus to try conjuring a spirit to boost their speed to get the boat to shore before it sinks? (After warning their driver of the speed change first, of course).

Only 3-4 meters.  You were sticking close to shore to make it easier to conceal the boat from any patrols.  If you took a running leap from the deck, you could probably get to a place you could touch bottom if you can't swim.  Or you could try to run the boat aground.

Sorry WD, missed your post initially.  Yes, you can reduce the TN for both of you by 2.

And I missed your note about easier target...  I'll fix
