Re: Bullshit and Snake Oil
The Apache stumbles a little as the shot hits him, but, amazingly, he takes it in stride. It's as if the bullet just bounced off his fancy shirt...the same kind of shirt August himself is wearing, come to think of it.
"HAhahahahahahaha!" he laughs. "Stupid fool! Charging Bear cannot be hurt by the white man's bullets!"
Dr. Franklin, holding on to the reigns for dear life, doesn't see this. But the sight is eerie enough to worry August...
((OOC: Itza-Chu's natural toughness is 7, but his Ghost Dance Shirt provides him with a +2 Toughness bonus vs. bullets. So it's a hit, but no effect. Incidentally, August also benefits from this. The shirt only provides the bonus vs. bullets, but hey, that's a good deal right there.
Still, the sight is unnerving, so make a Spirit (Guts) roll, -4 for the local Fear level, + your guts. This is only vs fear/nausea, not terror.
Itza-chu can't do much on his turn besides keep up, so it's on to the next round!
18:29, Today: Itza-Chu rolled 7,3 using d8,d6, rerolling max with rolls of 7,3. Run, Itza-chu, run! One Card.
Card: 6H.
August, roll your fear check and then your ride check. Remember that if you fail the fear check, it's a -1 penalty for the rest of the encounter.))
