Not having found where I said it, characters who were at the abbey have 5 extra points, I thought I had awarded them a long time ago.
The intention was to have awarded upon felling the boss monster (greater succubus) and then again after defeating the D'Ivore spoiler troops.
Apparently, I only dropped one award, so an extra 5 for all (npcs get only half)

In reply to Narrator (msg # 174):

Reroll attempts to find spells? Any penalty for divination?

So that's a total of 10 points for each of us, 11 for Azrael/Razael?

In reply to Stenet Fjall (msg # 176):

In addition to the 12 mention earlier, or included in it?

I thought there was talk of something like that at one point, but I can't find it in any thread.

I know Razael got 6 ...

In reply to Razael (msg # 179):

I could swear that I had said it at one point. Ok the total for the expedition for everyone is then 12, with one point going to azrael -razael for the sacrificial plane ahift other.

All good then?

Good by me... I'll add another 6 to Raz...

In reply to Razael (msg # 181):

5 points each to the kalima party at the specialty shop. (3 to Norman, as an ally)

Three of the juniors did not act, and get 3 points each, the others get 5.

2 points to each in seekers of the flame, and in Hunting the mageguild.

5 pts each for bew in town and the mug and cauldron

###not sure if points distributed for dealing with the yokai in rice run, please advise- if not, 5 points each, and one extra for defense against pequenaud's men.

The way to Veroigne  lets do 5 each, 1 extra for Balir due to constant rp

Temple hill: 5 each are due to Urrun, Gorran, and Hograth, the other three can grab a point each for now.

Near Al Menir: 4 points each, except 2 to Amelia, 1 to the new fighter. I would make that swird signature gear.

A point each to trading with trolls for having to listen to backstory.

Am I missing anyone?

I thought I recalled getting some points for the Yokai already, but I'm not certain.

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.

For instance Akimbo has never been increased (or really run by gwythaint - unless I point a spot where the ferret's thievery would be inconvenient), but then his existence is more of ye olde running joke of how Familiars are treated D&D, they exist only when the Master remembers and *pop* out of existence when not required, so I haven't sweated his point total (and just a few more points and he'll be able to pop and out of existence in fact).


* Take Peter Del'Orto's Felltower game (https://dungeonfantastic.blogspot.com/) where Allies are always 8 points for a 125 point Ally, no matter what your point total is and earn exp at (I believe) half rate (but are 100% run and built and advanced by the GM).

In reply to Elaina Grattan (msg # 184):

I have a few allies, and generally gwythaint is fimne for me to run them and update them, as long as you do not Munchkin too much. I use them to build up gaps in the parties...

Clarence did act when he went through the gate...did he get 3 or 5 points?

In reply to Chou-Zhen Mou (msg # 183):

Our wonderful GM did in fact give us points.

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.

In reply to Evelina Grattan (msg # 188):

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

In reply to Narrator (msg # 189):

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.

In reply to Clarence Montague (msg # 190):

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
