Gaynor's turn - interests: gold
Also, maybe more psionic powers.


10:57, Today: Arek rolled 1 using 1d6.  focus of central casting event. [=Arek]
10:59, Today: Arek rolled 2,1 using d4,d10.  event.

21: The character saves someone's life. This person becomes I character's Companion. Select the Companion and the mpanion's sex and personality on Table 752: Companions using Tables 752A and 7526). If the person is of the opposite sex from the character, roll a dl0. On a result of 1-5, the companion falls in love with the character. It is up to the player to determine if the character returns the feelings. [L]


11:06, Today: Arek rolled 8 using 1d10.  falling in love roll. - nup
11:05, Today: Arek rolled 9 using 1d10.  kind of companion. - 'good ol' boy - hedonist

?Problem no childhood friends around (would be on Gamma World) - use sister as could be a childhood friend in a way, is female. Leave 'in reserve' - don't really want an extra companion on adventures.

Problem with T&T:
Deadly
Lets use only 1 character/time
Game system - conversion strips most character powers.

*Could try using 2E adventures for real parties.
*other non-T&T system - Fighting Fantasy - same problems mostly.
*AD&D dungeon generator

random worlds.


Current list of: stuff wanted
problems to fix - diamond hand.
increase Arek wizard level / make personal rather than hat (wish).
[how else to do - say, convert hat into potions and spoon of mixing it]

reroll ability scores ?
never really wanted wings, carapace.
[would like metal skin..]

In reply to Arek (msg # 2):



Trying to find world where Ancient genetic science exists, so that can get genetic boosters.
Specifically Str boost.

08:46, Today: Arek rolled 67 using 1d100.  Gamma World alternative world (33%).
08:45, Today: Arek rolled 54 using 1d100.  Generic genetic booster (50%) or PS?
08:08, Today: Arek rolled 8 using 1d20.  Cha roll - convince Harcourt to not go to T&T world.

By nature of things - genetic booster implies human-like race present.
Tech level ?
Naturally occurring boosters (e.g in fruit).

08:51, Today: Arek rolled 19 using 1d100.  Since specific - likelihood developed for problem (30%).
08:50, Today: Arek rolled 48 using 1d100.  25% - likelihood other (specific) genetic boosters there.

09:03, Today: Arek rolled 30 using 1d100.  has magic (15%)?
09:03, Today: Arek rolled 1 using 1d100.  high-tech universe (33%).

Very advanced universe - but without magic - say beyond 'ancient' tech in Gamma World.
Antaeus - 12 - 'danger sense' - "I get a bad feeling" - PCs likely to be captured and probed or something.

After a week:
considering - experimenting since each new dimension adds more options.
If we can find a dimension which has 'ambient energy' that can fuel psionics; hence, can use the dimensional portal power basically as often as desired. Wouldn't recharge the character's own energy.
Assume portal would collapse as soon as character leaves. So overall little benefit to going there - going there lets you immediately go somewhere else.
-benefits in that several portals could be opened in succession; say, can't open two at once because concentration required. Would get around the '1 in 6 chance of successful continent', and/or with Y/N questions, could land much closer to desired targets than just 'same world'.
?dangers intrinsic to the universe: unknown
-would other people have moved there to abuse the psi energy ? Only if they have dimensional travel.
-would native creatures have ridiculous psionics ? Yes
-could travel to lifeless world there [should be infinite planets in the one dimension], but lack of oxygen atmosphere is then a problem.
-world of only plant life; possible but then the plants may be psionic
-Planet [or dimension] itself could be sentient.
-problem that 'mental energy' implies sentience...
-could specify that said sentience is friendly.

"thinking about: a habitable world where ambient energy can make psionics use almost effortless, and where the sentient life is friendly".

GM decision that this leads to a planet where plant life is the main life form, and plants are sentient (and psionic), feeding off ambient energy. Animal life is rare but would include monsters that are non- to low-intelligence, and immune to psionics [and/or psionic].


22:02, Today: Arek rolled 20 using 1d100.  Chance of random encounter on arrival (5%).
Miss but 'somewhat nearby' - friendly plants attempt to convince PCs to attack monster eating them [psionics-immune herbivore ?]
-use Gamma Worlds' more extensive mutant-creation rules.
Say, likely to be Large; roll stats and mutations for creature; d4 physical/d4 mental.
[Potential to roll 'Size Increase' in which case add more HD].
Must be non-sentient as 'not friendly'.
16:28, Today: Arek rolled 55,72 using d100,d100.  mutations.
16:28, Today: Arek rolled 1,1 using d4,d4.  physical, mental.
physical - 55 - new body  parts -8- arms or legs - multipurpose ?


mental - 72 - TK hand
+basic claws and teeth [fighting off other animals]
15:17, Today: Arek rolled 17 using 1d30.  Monster Hit Dice.
= 'Large' monster [Horse-sized] = 17d6; L5 as Brutorz - 54 HP
Say centipede-like.
Attacks: Say bite 1d6  + 2 fists 3d6 each. +5 THAC.
21:01, Today: Arek rolled 12 using 1d12+8.  Random AC.

Killed monster...[used 4 revolver shots]
waiting day to regain spells. Eating monster. Casting continual light.


Waving goodbye to plants, opening portals to try to find Meriga
[used 4 Y/N questions to determine if correct..]
21:50, Today: Arek rolled 5 using 1d6.  random encounters at site ?
21:49, Today: Arek rolled 1 using 1d6.  portal (1 = north america).
21:49, Today: Arek rolled 4 using 1d6.  portal (1 = north america).
21:49, Today: Arek rolled 2 using 1d6.  portal (1 = north america).

After a week - returning to the 3-P dimension (after eating a lot).

07:47, Today: Arek rolled 4 using 1d6.  random encounters. [OK]

From there, can open multiple portals to the BSP-7 dimension, so can drop off other PCs (know how long Gaynor was gone, so know when to return, although different time rate could modify).
Arek can't go (would be stuck in unknown conditions for a week);
Put through and so upgraded Antaeus, Torvil and Harcourt.

-sent Gaynor to Kelarn to buy new magic axe [can open portal again later from 3-P; using Telepathy can let him know where portal is]

08:16, Today: Arek rolled 85 using 1d100.  availability of magic longsword?
08:16, Today: Arek rolled 83 using 1d100.  Gaynor - availability of magic battleaxe (50%).

Food: opening to planet with edible ocean [think someone may have dropped a Myrlund's spoon...]
Good spot for experimenting..

! Maybe the psionic plants GENERATE the psionic energy field...

"Next BSP" - is there a way in-character that we could say that the universes are arranged, that could let us select the next one along ?
So rather than using the random roll, can select a universe.

can simply want to go to 'one of the worlds of the mirror we haven't explored before'...so don't need to use Marcellanius.
Probably exactly random, so d16+2 rather than 3d6 [reroll duplicates]

Likewise, with Deathtrap Equalizer.

13:57, Today: Arek rolled 3 using 1d16+2.  reroll. [originally rolled 12, demon room]
14 - octopus room
14:25, Today: Arek rolled 13 using 1d16+2.  -water pours through portal [vampire room]



14:28, Today: Arek rolled 2 using 1d4.  4,6, 17, 18.
14:29, Today: Arek rolled 11 using 2d6.  room 6. [Cha save]
14:31, Today: Arek rolled 2 using 1d3.  4,17,18. - room 17 (monolith room) - explored but feeling trepidation.

Avoiding DE since assume it has a 'wizard room'.

-grabbed DE-17 statue; planning on 'smelting' metal to cover diamond hand.
Y/N - are still alive...dropping in Kelarn

Opening portal to world where psionic enhancers are an available item.
Treat as: "Hat of Difference"; specifically set to psionicist class (not one of the 1E classes). 8,000 GP value.
World: much like "The Many-Coloured Land", ruled by elves (who are bad at psionics).
Golden Torcs available as item. GP value: consider as 8000, production cost may be less (ubiquitous to ruling class) but socially forbidden to lesser races.
Dwarves - natively psionic but live underground, at war with elves.

Repeating gateways (through wilderness) until can find people.
11:04, Today: Arek rolled 45 using 1d100.  Mythic - degree population saturation (lower higher).
11:04, Today: Arek rolled 1 using 1d100.  First person to meet - human (70%).
Treat as - rebel human village, at war with elven enslavers.

11:08, Today: Arek rolled 7 using 1d20.  Charisma check - Harcourt.
Say - village friendly.
Gaynor - still AWOL on other planet...Have 3 turns to decide whether to go through or not.
Say no. Talk to humans...do they want to come through to here ?
[83 - say no - can't evacuate/get possessions out, people off scavenging.]
PCs - promise to come back and speak to them. Can get a fix and go there with Dream Travel.


11:13, Today: Arek rolled 1 using 1d100.  Village has map of continent? Yes.


16:11, Today: Arek rolled 9 using 1d100.  Halfings aligned with dwarves? (50%).


[note - could fix weight problem of metal skin by size change - permanentcy'd reduce person.]

10:18, Today: Arek rolled 89 using 1d100.  Demiplane having gate/links to other worlds (70%).
-so is great to visit, but not a safe permanent location (population will eventually outstrip).

-buy other magic items? - is fine.
