Elaina Grattan:
Does 2 points apply to Holy Sister as well, or as an Ally would she get less?

Allies are based on whatever percentage of your points they are... usually.  Some games do them differently*, as far as I can tell, this game runs them by the RAW.  So if Holy Sister is (frex) was built as an 8 point Ally (50% [2], All The Time [x4]), she'll occasionally need to be updated to reflect your 1/2 point total.  Generally, however they also are made and run by the GM and I'm not sure if gwythaint is doing that across the board.  It seems to  be in a case by case basis, as needed.


Holy Sister is built on 75% [3], Always Present[x4], for 12 points, but the boss has been letting me run her so far (not really much going on yet, aside from a bandit in a tree).  So, canonically, she'd get 3/4 XP gain?  Round down, that'd make it 1 point.

That would be correct. Non-actors were holding the door and waiting, did not explore, steal , fight or talk to storekeep.

So in Clarence' case, I need to lok at how many points to put into base and how many to put into Ally (Spider). Should I make up a Character sheet for the Spider?

I notice in his private threads we have the statistics, though that has the full familiar cost at [9]. Hence for now he would be an Ally based on a character sheet of [35] points, which is between 25% and 50% of his character points, with a frequency of appearance of 12 (x2) for a total of 4 points for now.

Once you build him as s familiar, he can gain at that point. So far he is a pet that is sometimes around.

Re: Awards and development

With GM's permission, I'd like to spend my earned point and some that were left over on another level of Power Reserve (4 points per level).

Her Holiness, my sister and Queen, prefers to save hers for now.

Re: Awards and development

I believe it would be appropriate to spend two earned points on increasing my Knife skill to DX+2, two on Thrown Weapon (Knife), to gain the same level, and save the other one.

Following my recent learning opportunities, I'd like to spend an earned point to increase Occultism to IQ level.

Re: Awards and development

My plan is succeeding; using a heavier bow is helping me increase the strength in my arms and shoulders -- I'd like to spend ten points (five just awarded, and five more I've saved up) to increase ST by 1.  I'll also need to shop for a heavier bow again, to take advantage of my Strongbow perk.

Do you want me to count Nodwin as part of the Juniors (assumed) or as part of the Kalima thread?  He'll get 5 anyway as an active player.  I asked in case it matters.

Re: Awards and development

I run Amelia for RP on occasion, and Omar when appropriate.  The boss runs Amelia about half the time for plot movement and filling in gaps we (meaning the slightly dull player) miss.

Re: Awards and development

Also...  I would put Gareth forward for a point, he has been a constant pain in the a$$ to manage.  And I bet he's being faithful to the character sheet.  Now you may judge he is already munchkin enough, but the RP deserves merit.

Thank you for the recognition.  I will commence my plotting... planning tomorrow.  With my dad in and out of the hospital a couple times now, it has been a long couple weeks.  He is in good health at the moment, which we are thankful for.

Oh, that was just me having fun! I would reduce his disadvantages...but they are just too much fun when combines! I usually don't even bother rolling to resist, which i think is the way they should be played.

Aoife will want to upgrade her Guild membership to get a room in the guild.

Benito will want to make a shop for himself...how many points should he sink into the Base advantage, given he already has the tools as signature gear?

Variously:
Did I miss New in Town? Please comment

I would first buy down Sederic's nightmares to quirk level,

Chunky has no reason to get combat reflexes, although it could build
 ST and HT resonably.
Benito can drop a point into base, the shop is not signature gear.
Fp,Sanctuary  and see secrets are approved for Kirpich.

Mel can add truthsayer after this scene.

Magical Constructs fall under Hidden lore magic items, he gets +1 for the advanced prrp, vs this batch only.
Aoife can bump rank and get psychic guidance.

In reply to Melchizidek (msg # 205):

Ok, reduced Sederics Phantom voices and Nightmares by one level.

With Chunky, Combat Reflexes increases his dodge by one, hence I was looking for that. He has been through a few combats so far...

Scrolls cost $100 and are cast at level 15, based on Gareth buying some earlier. Is that standard, and a scrounging roll to find a vendor with the scroll?

Speaking of Gareth, his last incident burning himself while bathing, he might just add a point of DR vs fire...and Night Vision from times away from the campfire.

Wow, what a nice coincidence...6 is kind of his number...Magery 6, Night Vision 6, DR 6 vs fire... 6 6 6...how fitting! Lets not tell the religious folk...
