Re: Out of Character 7

Narrator:
The vats are not meant to be moved, and while no loger full of wine, they have a sludge of concentrated vinegar that is about a foot and a half deep by 4 yards in diameter.

So... much lighter than my napkin math... might have to heave one out the door at some point...

Re: Out of Character 7

Assuming the sludge is the same density as the wine, which I am guessing it is probably heavier, that would make the liquid contained within the cask weigh 16505lbs or there about on top of the weight of the cask itself, still not readily moveable.

In reply to Arthur (msg # 231):

it would take roughly two to three of Jednesa to heave a vat up and out the door. the vats themselves weigh nearly a tun empty.

Give her a few* seconds and she can at least shove one over...  which isn't something she's allowed to do while Berserk†.



* Specifically 10 seconds and a 'not crappy' Power Blow roll (13 or lower)...  give her 5 minutes of stamping her feet and getting upset at it and another 'not crappy' Power Blow and she could snatch it up and heave it a few yards (if your number is correct, it's exactly 4.5 yards of distance on that throw)...

† At least not without (a) gwythaint agreeing her Power Blow is based on anger so allowed during a Berserk rampage, and (b) requires a roll of a 3 or 4.   So... not exactly reliable.

I must, based on personal quirks, agree that one can become enraged at objects. As to whether that is RaW, I care not.

NO! For sure if you have to reach in your pants... otherwise maybe, assuming you aren't a nudist.

Sorry.  I've been ill the last few weeks... as such my post rate has suffered*.  Hopefully (as I'm [now] shedding this sinus infection) it should pick back up.

Sinus Infection Update:  It's worse.  Egads it's worse.  The antibiotics have teamed up with the infection to really whup my ass.

Re: Out of Character 7

龍脫粒機
Lóng TuōLì jī *Dragon Thresher* (+9 CF) iron nunchaku, with silver-plated embellishing, and dragon-motif etching. [ornate+1 (etching) ,silver coating, fine, balanced +1 to skill, solid metal(DR6), +1 damage] Min ST 8, $600, 4 lbs (signature gear) *weight is increased by 2 lbs for all metal construction, increasing min st by 1*

Chye's signature nunchaku have evolved into an expensive weapon, from the lowly wooden nunchaku for the $20 they started out as. these are bad ass though. when i get an odd number of CPs again, i'll make them as my naginata is, with the 2 perks i just added...

Re: Out of Character 7

The way I read it, Fit is useful for regaining fatigue from physical activity (running, fighting, etc.), while Recover Energy recovers fatigue spent on casting or maintaining spells.  They don't stack, they do the same thing for different kinds of fatigue.

Also, slorn are Hard to Kill.

Ardenas Barehand:

True enough.  Fit is meant to recover FP lost to non-supernatural, non-long term effects* and activities.

Fit will recover FP spent marching, fighting, Extra Effort, etc.

* Starvation, dehydration, lack of sleep, etc.

quote:
...while Recover Energy recovers fatigue spent on casting or maintaining spells.

Recover Energy simply speeds up recovery of FP during a rest.  Which means all FP lost which is recoverable via rest (so everything but long-term FP).

quote:

That's... that's debatable.  I've allowed them to stack in games I've run, after all, it's usually not that much extra FP being recovered.

And there is nothing that states they don't stack.

Re: Out of Character 7

they should stack, cos if your fatigue reaches 0 from any event, you need ht rolls to avoid passing out. plus, it's advantageous for mages who rely on their own bodies to power their spells, if you are fit and in good physical shape, you will regain your energy, second-wind, whatever you wanna call it, faster.

Re: Out of Character 7

Fit will help recovery of non magical/psi FP expenditure.

Recover energy increases the recovery rate for all FP.

Energy reserve recovers without rest and is affected by recover energy.

Best setup is spending half from ER and half from FP as they each recover desperately.

Yes, exactly.

Indeed they do.  ;)

I converse on another message board with a guy who does contract negotiation for the State Department... his autocorrect really does some weird stuff sometimes (he's put a lot of acronyms into it as 'correct' words).

And he almost never bothers to spellcheck his posts to see what madness his autocorrect has been up to.

Oooohhh, that could make for some interesting contracts ... either unenforceable or un-performable.
