[11:07] LaRPS: Setting up LaRPS meter v0.25...

[11:07] Lana Swallowtail: Ha found you!
[11:07] Nell Moonstone: its nice to make a class
[11:07] Faith Diesel: we are talking about death in laarps
[11:07] Faith Diesel: hi lana
[11:08] Lana Swallowtail: Hello :)
[11:08] Faith Diesel: have a seat
[11:08] Nell Moonstone: ooh gawd, i can just about attach it , never mind die with it
[11:08] Jade Rowe: ((JadeHazel Constantine has entered the area.))
[11:08] Tas Darkmatter: so I had to take off the meter and hud on my "not" dead charater..
[11:09] Faith Diesel: are you new to us Lana. Nell and Nicolie I have met
[11:09] Faith Diesel: Hi Jade
[11:09] Lana Swallowtail: Yes
[11:09] Lana Swallowtail: Faith...
[11:09] Lana Swallowtail: I am.
[11:09] JadeHazel Constantine: hi faith
[11:09] Faith Diesel: we are talking about death with larps
[11:09] JadeHazel Constantine: are these chairs safe?
[11:09] Faith Diesel: giggles - maybe
[11:10] JadeHazel Constantine: for humans i mean... last time i sat in one, i died
[11:10] Tas Darkmatter: so I learned that the only way back from dead..dead is ressurection...
[11:10] Faith Diesel: yes
[11:10] Faith Diesel: thats true
[11:10] Tas Darkmatter: or can you reset the meter and hud
[11:10] Tas Darkmatter: if neede..and as far as rp would possible loss experience?
[11:12] Faith Diesel: no the wayt to reset is resurrection
[11:12] Faith Diesel: is that a problem
[11:12] Faith Diesel: its quite hard to die
[11:12] Nell Moonstone: unless , you meet a chicken
[11:13] Lana Swallowtail looks over at Nell.."Serious?..."
[11:13] Faith Diesel: if you stay defeated the chicken wont go on to kill you
[11:13] JadeHazel Constantine: darn those chickens...
[11:13] Tas Darkmatter: It took a while for the character to get dead..so yes it is hard
[11:13] Faith Diesel: giggles
[11:13] Faith Diesel: problem is if you keep reviving and healing and go on fighting
[11:13] Faith Diesel: then you will die relatively fast
[11:13] Nell Moonstone: ooh right, i see, i was just incapacitated
[11:14] Tas Darkmatter: so basically that character is dead forever..which is
[11:14] Faith Diesel: if you lose all your health you are defeated
[11:14] Faith Diesel: if you lose all your life you are dead
[11:14] Lana Swallowtail: Is there somewhere you can go to restore health?
[11:14] Faith Diesel: you can revive using the angel in the hub
[11:15] Faith Diesel: but careful not to heal first - you can get stuck defeated
[11:15] Faith Diesel: if that happens just detach and reattach your meter and hud
[11:16] Faith Diesel: Defeated is like badly injured or unconscious
[11:16] Faith Diesel: you can RP it like that
[11:17] Lana Swallowtail: very good..
[11:17] Faith Diesel: when you are revived and healed dont forget to RP that
[11:17] Faith Diesel: The larps is only meant to support your RP
[11:17] Faith Diesel: so remember to RP everything
[11:18] Faith Diesel: If you are all wearing your HUDs you will see your Health, Strength and Life stats on the left side at the top of your screen
[11:19] Faith Diesel: You can RP lose of strength as getting tired
[11:19] Faith Diesel: so you can use your stats to inform your RP
[11:20] Lana Swallowtail: how do we feed our hunger?
[11:20] Faith Diesel: Im not sure about your sim Tas but in Legacies we dont have permadeath without player agreement
[11:20] Faith Diesel: getting to that lana
[11:20] Lana Swallowtail: kn:)
[11:21] Faith Diesel: just want to discuss /2 commands a min then we will do hunger
[11:21] Faith Diesel: to improve your stats by RPing you need to use the /2 commands - does everyone know what I mean?
[11:22] Lana Swallowtail: No
[11:22] Nicolie Luv: no
[11:22] Tas: "yes"
[11:22] Nell blinks
[11:22] Tas grins
[11:22] Jade Rowe: "hiccups"
[11:22] Faith Diesel: if you type /2 or /2m before you post it records your rp
[11:23] Nicolie Luv: oh duh sory my hat was on too tight earlier
[11:23] Fate types something to show what happens
[11:23] Faith Diesel: thats /2m
[11:23] Faith Diesel: if i do /2
[11:23] Fate: "Are you all with me so far?"
[11:23] Lana Swallowtail: watching...
[11:24] Jade Rowe nods
[11:24] Nicolie yes
[11:24] Lana Swallowtail: but I don't see anything
[11:24] Tas waves Yeepers
[11:24] Nell nods frantically
[11:24] Faith Diesel: all the /2 commands are on the Larps help nc
[11:24] Tas: "I have found that if using emerald and open channel two you just type as normal"
[11:24] Faith Diesel: you can get that if you click on your hud
[11:24] Faith Diesel: and click the help button
[11:24] Faith Diesel: there are more
[11:25] Faith Diesel: particularly /22 which puts out your post in your race language
[11:25] Faith Diesel: thats true Tas but it makes using the unusual /2 commands tricky
[11:26] Tas nods
[11:26] Faith Diesel: all the RP posting is on channel 2 in the larps hud
[11:26] Faith Diesel: and most of the commands are channel 9
[11:27] Faith Diesel: did you all find the nc
[11:27] Lana Swallowtail: Yes
[11:27] Faith Diesel: its quite useful for other things not just /2
[11:27] Faith Diesel: kk - lets move to hunger
[11:27] Jade Rowe browses through the hand-outs
[11:28] JadeHazel Constantine: cool
[11:28] Faith Diesel: There are various food sources round legacies which cover all races
[11:29] Faith Diesel: Tas there is a food vendor pack available from Trijin
[11:29] Tas: "nice"
[11:29] Faith Diesel: you can also use the commands /9gorge and /9bitethem
[11:30] Lana Swallowtail: do you need a target for those?
[11:30] Faith Diesel: giggles - i keep saying this - but remember to RP them if you are on the rp floor
[11:30] Faith Diesel: yes for bitethem
[11:30] Faith Diesel: you cant target yourself
[11:30] JadeHazel Constantine: how about humans?
[11:30] Lana Swallowtail: hee hee...
[11:30] Faith Diesel: so you can just gorge
[11:31] Faith Diesel: there is human food - giggles - eat some pie
[11:31] JadeHazel Constantine: lol... i was hoping i can gorge on those darn chickens
[11:31] Faith Diesel: even humans get a small about of nourishment from bite them
[11:31] Nell Moonstone: watch it , the chickens are vicious
[11:31] Faith Diesel: you can bite them
[11:32] Nell Moonstone: the chickens?
[11:32] Faith Diesel: one of my chars does often
[11:32] Faith Diesel: oh yes
[11:32] JadeHazel Constantine: lol
[11:32] Faith Diesel: i rp breaking their necks with my teeth
[11:32] Nicolie Luv: ohhh nice
[11:32] JadeHazel Constantine: i'll deep fry them first
[11:32] Faith Diesel: giggles
[11:32] Nell nods " nice touch"
[11:32] Lana Swallowtail: yeah...mmm cooked chicken...
[11:32] Faith Diesel: you need 2000power to use gorge
[11:33] Nicolie well I know what nell willl be fixing for dinner
[11:33] Jade Rowe giggles
[11:33] Faith Diesel: cant remember how much for bitethem
[11:33] Faith Diesel: all abilities use power
[11:33] Nell Moonstone: so really , you want to find food elsewhere ?
[11:33] Faith Diesel: the amounts are in the abilities list
[11:34] Faith Diesel: let me find the link
[11:34] Faith Diesel: http://larps.net/spells.php
[11:34] Faith Diesel: to give you an idea of hunger scale
[11:35] Faith Diesel: the /9gorge command relieves about 50% hunger
[11:35] JadeHazel Constantine: awwww... no FryThem?
[11:35] Lana Swallowtail: anyway to make the hud bigger??
[11:35] Faith Diesel: laughs - i will show you a way in a bit
[11:35] Faith Diesel: no lana - can reposition it
[11:35] Lana Swallowtail: pfft,,
[11:36] Faith Diesel: usually people want it smaller
[11:36] Lana Swallowtail: yeah...I need glasses...hee hee
[11:37] Faith Diesel: so hunger up to about 100% is not serious
[11:37] Faith Diesel: after that you might find you are out of breath doing actions
[11:37] Faith Diesel: ie strength is affected
[11:38] Faith Diesel: but there is no permanent damage to your stats until you are over 500% hungry
[11:38] Faith Diesel: i dont recommend getting that hungry
[11:38] Faith Diesel: think of it like starvation
[11:38] Tas Darkmatter: Permanent?
[11:38] Nicolie Luv: I dont get that hungry in rl let alone let my av get that hungry lol
[11:38] Faith Diesel: when your body starts eating your muscles
[11:39] Nell Moonstone: ewhhhhh..
[11:39] Faith Diesel: yes if you do it for a long time Tas you can permanently affect your char
[11:39] Faith Diesel: any other questions befor i move to targeting
[11:40] Tas Darkmatter: I would like a link to the food vendor
[11:40] Nell Moonstone: nope
[11:40] Faith Diesel: ill find out after class for you Tas
[11:40] Tas Darkmatter: thanks
[11:40] Faith Diesel: do you all know how to target
[11:41] Nicolie nods his head
[11:41] Faith Diesel: the sweet spots are the head of a char or the meter
[11:41] Faith Diesel: some avs who are really warped from human shape
[11:41] Faith Diesel: need to click on the meter
[11:41] Faith Diesel: as the head is in a strange place
[11:42] Faith Diesel: anyone not able to target - or can i move on to abilities
[11:43] Jade Rowe performs Energy Missile on Lana.
[11:43] Lana is hit with a missile.
[11:43] JadeHazel Constantine: oops!
[11:43] Nell Moonstone: laughs.. i think we got it
[11:43] Nicolie performs BloodSurge on themself.
[11:43] Lana Swallowtail: oww
[11:43] JadeHazel Constantine: sorry!
[11:43] Lana Swallowtail: lol
[11:43] Jade Rowe grins sheepishly
[11:43] Nicolie successfully assists Lana.
[11:43] Faith Diesel: ok there are two types of action/dice roll in your HUD
[11:44] Lana Swallowtail: hmm...thanks...I'll remember you for christmas..
[11:44] Faith Diesel: Abilities and Physicals
[11:44] JadeHazel Constantine: peace
[11:44] Faith Diesel: Abilities are supernatural like magic or natural abilities learned by your char
[11:45] Faith Diesel: Physicals are just that physical actions upon a target or the evironment -
[11:46] Faith Diesel: I gave you the link to the full list of abilities but you can only access some of them - the number depending on your level
[11:47] Faith Diesel: you can use an ability before you reach the required level but it will definitely fail
[11:47] Nicolie failed performing the Novice ability.
[11:48] Faith Diesel: when you reach the required level -whether you are successful is based on a diceroll
[11:48] Faith Diesel: the targeting allows the hud to perform a resistance roll for the targeted person automatically
[11:49] Jade Rowe performs Insurge on Lana.
[11:49] Nicolie fails to assist Nell.
[11:49] Faith Diesel: watch your hud stats when you are using HUD commands as some of them just show a decrease in health to show that they have been successful. Tri is making this clearer in the next update to the hud
[11:50] Tas successfully performs the Novice ability.
[11:50] Faith Diesel: Levels are just a factorization of XP so you need to earn XP to increase your level
[11:51] Nicolie attempts to attach a chain to Nell.
[11:51] Faith Diesel: to find out what abilities you have available you need to access My Larps
[11:51] Faith Diesel: you do this by clicking on your hud
[11:51] Faith Diesel: chosing Character
[11:51] Faith Diesel: and then MyLarps
[11:52] Faith Diesel: can everyone do that
[11:52] Faith Diesel: and get to their character sheet
[11:53] Nicolie attempts to remove the chain from Nell.
[11:53] Faith Diesel: are you all asleep?
[11:53] Faith Diesel: giggles
[11:53] Nicolie no
[11:53] Lana Swallowtail: zzz..huh...
[11:53] Nell Moonstone: nope.. seaching for my password
[11:53] Faith Diesel: it comes up when you detach and reattach your hud
[11:53] Faith Diesel: its a 4 digit number
[11:53] Jade Rowe blins and discreetly wipes drool from her chin
[11:54] Nell Moonstone: i got it , thank you
[11:54] Faith Diesel: can you all open detail
[11:54] Nell Moonstone: yes
[11:54] Faith Diesel: and then find the abilities tab on the left hand side
[11:54] Faith Diesel: that is your list of abilities
[11:55] Nicolie yes
[11:55] Nell Moonstone: oops, i really ned some abilities
[11:55] Faith Diesel: giggles - then need lots XP
[11:56] Faith Diesel: do classses and do quests - both help
[11:56] Nicolie Luv: What are merits?
[11:56] Faith Diesel: merits we havent really started to use yet
[11:56] Tas Darkmatter: you mentioned open detail..uh what is that?
[11:56] Faith Diesel: we give them to reward good rp
[11:56] Nell Moonstone: ok, ive been looking for the journal, goodness those pages are hard to find
[11:56] Nicolie nods in agreement with his wife
[11:56] Faith Diesel: have you got your character name showing?
[11:57] JadeHazel Constantine: wow! i din't know even humans have that much abilities
[11:57] Faith Diesel: in your browser
[11:57] Tas: "I was looking for a tab"
[11:57] JadeHazel Constantine: and i haven't even used them!
[11:57] Tas: "duh"
[11:57] Faith Diesel: tab comes next
[11:57] Faith Diesel: detail button
[11:58] Faith Diesel: you can practice putting them in your rp now
[11:58] Faith Diesel: Jade
[11:58] Faith Diesel: RP first generally then use the command
[11:58] Faith Diesel: then RP the outcome
[11:59] Jade Rowe grins and mischievously looks over at Lana
[11:59] Faith Diesel: remember every ability or physical is an attempt
[11:59] Faith Diesel: the dice roll determines success or failure
[11:59] Nicolie glances to Nell through the corner of his eyes
[11:59] Lana Swallowtail huh..sorry engrossed in Larps..
[11:59] Faith Diesel: so RP attempt then when you have dicerolled RP the outcome
[12:00] Lana Swallowtail: you are going to beat on me again aren't you?
[12:00] JadeHazel Constantine: lol
[12:00] Nicolie successfully examines Nell.
[12:00] Faith Diesel: not all the commands are on buttons in the HUD
[12:00] Nell Moonstone: sorry , im not getting the dice roll !
[12:00] Faith Diesel: there just arent enough buttons
[12:00] Faith Diesel: giggles
[12:01] Faith Diesel: so the left hand column gives the /9command
[12:01] Faith Diesel: i keep a full abilities list printed out by my computer
[12:01] Nicolie Luv: do we have to be standing up for it to work?
[12:02] Faith Diesel: no but targeting is easier when standing
[12:02] Lana successfully assists Jade Rowe.
[12:02] Nicolie Luv: or am I not typing it right
[12:02] Faith Diesel: just /9command - no space
[12:02] Faith Diesel: in local
[12:02] Lana successfully harms Jade Rowe with a stellar success.
[12:02] Nell Moonstone: not working for me either
[12:03] Faith Diesel: ooo lana
[12:03] Lana Swallowtail: lol
[12:03] Faith Diesel: perhaps i should do outcomes now
[12:03] Nicolie performs Dark Hand on Nell.
[12:03] Lana Swallowtail: I am just trying to figure this out...
[12:03] JadeHazel Constantine: nice
[12:03] Jade Rowe looks at her meter
[12:03] Nell Moonstone: Oi... , thats it , im spitting in your dinner later
[12:03] Lana Swallowtail: sorry Jade..I don't know what I did..:(
[12:04] JadeHazel Constantine: now am not sure what i should be worried about... my health dropping a few points, or my hunger going up...?
[12:04] Faith Diesel: there are 5 possible outcomes: Critical Failure, Failure, Bare success, Success & Stellar success
[12:04] Lana performs Insurge on Jade Rowe.
[12:04] Faith Diesel: Failure and Success are the normal ones
[12:04] Jade Rowe hears her stomach grumbling
[12:04] Nicolie performs Insurge on Nell.
[12:04] Faith Diesel: the other 3 are special cases and fun RP can ensue
[12:05] Lana Swallowtail: ooh I had a stellar...
[12:05] Tas Darkmatter: not getting /9command to work
[12:05] Faith Diesel: critical failure can mean the outcome is rather catastrophic
[12:05] Nicolie successfully performs the medium task.
[12:05] Faith Diesel: stellar success is like clash of the titans
[12:05] Lana Swallowtail: ha!...cool..
[12:06] Faith Diesel: and bare success means you succeed but there can be some downside too
[12:06] Faith Diesel: lets move to physicals
[12:06] Faith Diesel: there are some actions in your hud
[12:07] Faith Diesel: like chainthem, spankthem
[12:07] JadeHazel Constantine: I feel like i'm in Hogwarts, practicing in Dumbledore's Army
[12:07] Lana dies.
[12:07] Tas Darkmatter: poor lana
[12:08] Lana Swallowtail: oo
[12:08] Faith Diesel: but you can also harm, assist and examine a target using the diceroll PvT
[12:08] Lana hides from view.
[12:08] Nell Moonstone: what does it mean when someone examines you in RP, are you supposed to respond?
[12:08] Jade Rowe performs Raise on Lana.
[12:08] Lana reappears from their hiding place.
[12:08] Nicolie spanks Nell.
[12:08] Lana gets back on their feet.
[12:08] Lana Swallowtail: whew..I was worried
[12:09] Faith Diesel: PvT is for all physicals not in the HUD where you can target a char or an NPC
[12:09] Faith Diesel: good question Nell
[12:09] JadeHazel Constantine: Tsk! Killer chair
[12:09] Faith Diesel: its a discovery roll - normall you would have to call an ST for discovery rolls
[12:09] JadeHazel Constantine: uhm... what's pvt?
[12:10] Faith Diesel: in a sec jade - let me finish Nells question
[12:10] Faith Diesel: you call an ST in the ooc chat
[12:10] Faith Diesel: you set up a conference call with the other players in the rp
[12:11] Nell Moonstone: what will the story teller do, does it mean something is about to change ?
[12:11] Lana Swallowtail: is there a handbook for all of this somewhere??..lol..
[12:11] Faith Diesel: when I ST a discovery - i usually find out 6 things you want to discover - let you rp the attempt and diceroll
[12:11] Nell Moonstone: ok , what will that do, im unclear, is the story teller like a referee
[12:12] Faith Diesel: then depending upon the outcome I ST between 0 & 6 of the facts
[12:12] Nell Moonstone: ooh right, so you would give 6 targets to the other player
[12:12] Faith Diesel: yes an ST is like a referee
[12:13] Faith Diesel: and you can call one for any roleplay but there are a few cases when you must call one
[12:13] Faith Diesel: discovery is one
[12:13] Nell Moonstone: oh right ,an if i was examined that is a discovery
[12:13] Faith Diesel: particularly if you want to discover about something in the environment
[12:13] Faith Diesel: yes
[12:14] Faith Diesel: if its between two people
[12:14] Faith Diesel: you can just rp it if you agree
[12:15] Nell Moonstone: without the story teller
[12:15] Faith Diesel: the examined person just has to reveal what you have attempted to find out if yo uare successful
[12:15] Nicolie Luv: ohh
[12:15] Nicolie Luv: I did not know that
[12:15] Faith Diesel: bare success a little info, success more and stellar all
[12:15] Nicolie Luv: cause I was examined
[12:15] Nicolie Luv: and been examining
[12:16] Nell Moonstone: laughs, i think you better be careful with those buttons
[12:16] Faith Diesel: and did you reveal on success, Nicolie?
[12:16] Nicolie looks to his wife thank you baby
[12:16] Faith Diesel: giggles
[12:16] Nicolie Luv: well no I didnt know I was supposed to
[12:16] Nicolie Luv: it was the first time I was examined
[12:17] Faith Diesel: back to someones question - PvT stands for player verses target
[12:17] Faith Diesel: and you can harm, assist or discover using it
[12:17] Lana Swallowtail: I am confused...are they saying what it is...that they are examining? or looking for?
[12:17] Faith Diesel: depends what you rp lana
[12:17] JadeHazel Constantine: ohhh... ok
[12:17] Faith Diesel: eg
[12:18] Nicolie Luv: well the person did say examines nicolie to discovery things bout him raceetc
[12:18] Fate Fate looks into Lana's eyes "What is your race, little girlie"
[12:18] Jade Rowe: ((JadeHazel Constantine rolls a d6. Result is 2))
[12:18] Fate successfully examines .
[12:18] Nicolie Luv: so I probably hsould as reviealed vampire race
[12:18] Lana Swallowtail: Now I have to tell?
[12:18] Faith Diesel: and i was bad at posting but successful
[12:19] Faith Diesel: so you would have to post your race to me
[12:19] Lana Swallowtail let's it slip..I am a fungus..
[12:19] Faith Diesel: perfect
[12:19] Faith Diesel: giggles
[12:19] Nicolie Luv: so that is how we find out what each persons charecter is so to speak
[12:19] Faith Diesel: but not /2
[12:19] JadeHazel Constantine: not a pond scum?
[12:19] JadeHazel Constantine giggles
[12:19] Faith Diesel: if they are reluctant yes
[12:20] Lana Swallowtail: what do you mean not /2?
[12:20] Faith Diesel: i would try just asking first
[12:20] Jade Rowe successfully examines Lana.
[12:20] Faith Diesel: and how you extract info depends on your char
[12:20] Faith Diesel: fate would use magic
[12:20] Lana Swallowtail: oh IC
[12:21] Faith Diesel: which is why she was peering into lanas eyes
[12:21] Nicolie Luv: why is there a coushion on the ceiling?
[12:21] Lana Swallowtail: you give them an opportunity to RP a relationship..before forcing it..
[12:21] Faith Diesel: i should have said 'as if to mesmerise her into revealing..."
[12:22] Faith Diesel: help your fellow rpers by giving as much info in your post as possible
[12:22] Faith Diesel: just need to turn on light one sec
[12:22] JadeHazel Constantine: let there be light!
[12:23] Lana Swallowtail: I could tell that that statement was a demanding...not casual...of great interest..
[12:23] Faith Diesel: the other main physical diceroll is PvE
[12:23] JadeHazel Constantine: lol
[12:23] Faith Diesel: this is when you cant target and want to do something to something
[12:23] Faith Diesel: PvE means player vs Environment
[12:23] Lana failed performing the simple task.
[12:24] Faith Diesel: so if you want to pull up a lamp post or unlock a door
[12:24] Faith Diesel: use PvE
[12:25] Nicolie failed performing the simple task.
[12:25] Faith Diesel: again rp attempt then find dicerolls in the hud
[12:25] Faith Diesel: and click PvE
[12:25] Faith Diesel: it is based on size
[12:25] Lana Swallowtail tries to move the cushion with Jade in it.
[12:25] Lana successfully performs the medium task.
[12:25] Nell successfully performs the simple task.
[12:25] Faith Diesel: and the rough sizes are shown in the hud
[12:25] Nicolie failed performing the medium task.
[12:26] Tas Darkmatter: Is the choice of dice a player choice...or the ST/sim?
[12:26] Nicolie failed performing the simple task.
[12:26] Faith Diesel: its player choice
[12:26] Jade Rowe suddenly felt her seat move with a jolt
[12:26] Nell laughs at her dead husband.. " call me widow nell "
[12:26] Faith Diesel: STs can give guidence but the player chooses
[12:26] Nicolie humphs at his wife and looks for his chain
[12:26] Faith Diesel: if you underroll though some strange results can ensue
[12:27] Nicolie: ((Nicolie Luv rolls a d20. Result is 11))
[12:27] Nicolie Luv: what does that mean
[12:27] Faith Diesel: now we come to PvA
[12:27] Jade Rowe failed performing the siege task.
[12:27] Lana Swallowtail: oh nooo..
[12:27] Faith Diesel: this is only for use as a last resort and always needs an ST
[12:27] Tas Darkmatter: so if Nicolle was wanting to decide if I was lying,,,we would roll dice and who rolled the best would decide the action results
[12:28] Nicolie failed performing the Novice ability.
[12:28] Lana Swallowtail: hmmm very interesting.
[12:28] Jade Rowe successfully performs the Novice ability.
[12:28] Nicolie Luv: well I just stink today
[12:28] Lana Swallowtail: PvA needs a storyteller
[12:28] Tas Darkmatter: and this could be dependant if she was very smart and I was very stupid shoulde effect the dice roll
[12:28] Faith Diesel: nicolie would attempt to find out if you were lying
[12:29] Faith Diesel: first rping his attempt
[12:29] Faith Diesel: then dicerolling
[12:29] Lana Swallowtail: got it :)
[12:29] Jade Rowe: ((JadeHazel Constantine rolls a d4. Result is 3))
[12:29] Lana Swallowtail: Tas...like the odds in the smart ones favor..
[12:29] Faith Diesel: if the outcome was a success - Tas would have to reveal whether he lied or not
[12:30] Faith Diesel: in your post Tas normally
[12:30] Nicolie appraoches tas eyeing him intentenly, "so Tas were you in ten bells last night?"
[12:30] Faith Diesel: its freeform rp
[12:31] Faith Diesel: the hud is only there in that instance to give you the outcome
[12:31] Faith Diesel: how you rp that outcome is up to you
[12:31] Lana Swallowtail: nice
[12:31] Faith Diesel: but you need to stay within the bounds of the outcome
[12:31] Tas Darkmatter: m ponders a moment I was out with friends I swear really I was
[12:32] Faith Diesel: ie the rp leading up to it is very important
[12:32] Lana Swallowtail: (if he doubts it..can he examine Tas for the truth?)
[12:32] Faith Diesel: if the attempt is unclear the success can be unclear
[12:32] Nicolie lets his eyes glow red at Tas searching deeping in his soul for the truth
[12:33] Faith Diesel: thats why i was saying put good clear info in your attempts
[12:33] Nicolie successfully examines Tas.
[12:33] Tas he starts to sweat his breating becomes rapid
[12:33] Faith Diesel: what are you attempting on what and how
[12:33] Faith Diesel: giggles
[12:33] Jade Rowe giggles
[12:33] Tas his eyes look away ....
[12:34] Lana Swallowtail looks at the room intensely looking at Tas...waiting...
[12:34] Faith Diesel: i have overrun - i have about 15mins more
[12:34] Faith Diesel: do you all want to continue
[12:34] Nicolie Luv: yes please
[12:34] Lana Swallowtail: Yes
[12:34] Nicolie Luv: ot a little carried away
[12:34] Nell Moonstone: if you dont mind , yes
[12:34] JadeHazel Constantine: yep
[12:35] Faith Diesel: ok PvA must have an ST present, it cannot be used for harm or instead of any ability in the hud abilities list
[12:35] Faith Diesel: we use it for things like potions and enchanted objects
[12:35] Faith Diesel: or wards
[12:35] Tas: "please give an example"
[12:36] Lana Swallowtail: Yes
[12:36] Faith Diesel: if you wanted to place a ward on a door
[12:36] Faith Diesel: you would rp the attempt - in character - so a fae might cast a spell
[12:36] Nicolie raises hand
[12:36] Faith Diesel: then you would roll a PvA
[12:37] Faith Diesel: let me finish nicolie
[12:37] Faith Diesel: if you were successful the ST would probably ask you to do a duration roll
[12:37] Faith Diesel: just plain success is usually d6
[12:38] Lana Swallowtail: choosing which one? what ever your power was?
[12:38] Faith Diesel: then the ST would storytell the result
[12:38] Faith Diesel: depends on the complication of the ward
[12:38] Faith Diesel: a simple door ward usually skilled
[12:38] Lana Swallowtail: k
[12:39] Faith Diesel: novice is very easy - anyone could do
[12:39] Faith Diesel: skilled needs some practice
[12:39] JadeHazel Constantine: can you also use that with weapons?
[12:40] Faith Diesel: weapons cause harm no
[12:40] Tas: "so anyone attempting to interact with the warded object would need a ST to monitor the results"
[12:40] Faith Diesel: yes because we need to record the details of the ward for future use
[12:41] Faith Diesel: we keep a database of all our STd ongoing rps and ones with stateballs
[12:41] Lana Swallowtail: ?Question about the Dice Roll Menu...3d10 -d100? What are they for?
[12:41] Faith Diesel: the ST does the storytell, records the rp, any im discussion, places a stateball to say something is up with the door
[12:42] Faith Diesel: so when someone comes across the door later they know to call an ST to access the door
[12:42] Nicolie Luv: I had that when I rented my place
[12:43] Faith Diesel: then we call up the item on the database and use it for the followup ro
[12:43] Faith Diesel: RP*
[12:43] Faith Diesel: does that make sense?
[12:43] Tas: "yes"
[12:43] Lana Swallowtail: Yes
[12:43] Lana Swallowtail: continuity...
[12:43] JadeHazel Constantine: are the st's in character?
[12:43] Faith Diesel: STs referee, storytell and record for future rp
[12:44] Faith Diesel: no Jade we are just the narrator
[12:44] Tas: "also one could put a stateball on an objects just to keep folks guessing"
[12:44] Faith Diesel: you rp as if we are not there
[12:44] JadeHazel Constantine: oh.. ok
[12:44] Faith Diesel: we have a storyteller sign so you know
[12:44] Fate: ((Faith Diesel is in StoryTeller mode.))
[12:44] Faith Diesel: like that
[12:45] Nell shakes her head " urrmmm, sort of makes sense , in about a million more classes "
[12:45] Faith Diesel: we dont pay attention to sl tags while rping
[12:45] Faith Diesel: only meter ones
[12:45] JadeHazel Constantine: so like for example, i want to break in a house and just wreak havoc, i'll call and st and rp it out as if i'm alone?
[12:45] Faith Diesel: yes
[12:45] JadeHazel Constantine: makes sense
[12:46] Faith Diesel: and if a player is away but have left their character in place
[12:46] Faith Diesel: you can mess with them too
[12:46] Nicolie Luv: hehehe ooohhhh how wicked
[12:46] Jade Rowe grins wickedly
[12:46] Faith Diesel: but you must have an ST so it can be recorded and a stateball set
[12:46] Lana Swallowtail: nice
[12:46] Faith Diesel: thought you would like that
[12:47] Tas: "the st is thThe Storyteller can not interfer unless a prior action has to be played out..aka a trap or alarm etc"
[12:47] Faith Diesel: you can break into any house on rp floor
[12:47] Faith Diesel: if they leave the door open you can walk in
[12:47] Faith Diesel: but be sensible - give people some privacy
[12:47] Jade Rowe note to self: try not to be OOB while on the RP floor
[12:47] Lana Swallowtail: Tas..she would say...you need to do that first?
[12:48] Faith Diesel: what was that Tas?
[12:48] Faith Diesel: i think Nicolie had a question too
[12:49] Nicolie Luv: I think I figured it out a ward on a door is a spell?
[12:49] Tas: "if someone broke into a house...a ST would be there and not interfer unless the homeowner had set up an alarm and the thief tripped it"
[12:49] Faith Diesel: often Nicolie
[12:49] Lana Swallowtail: Faith can we add you in case we have more questions later?
[12:49] Faith Diesel: but not always - people havemany ways to rp abilities and we dont mind how you do
[12:49] Faith Diesel: yes of course
[12:50] Nicolie Luv: what does a ward look like?
[12:50] Faith Diesel: i recommend you add as many STs as possible
[12:50] Faith Diesel: it is words nicolie but we usually place a stateball let me find one
[12:50] Nell Moonstone: STs = sexually transmitted storytellers ?
[12:51] JadeHazel Constantine: lol
[12:51] Faith Diesel: giggles
[12:51] Tas: "yikes"
[12:51] Nicolie Luv: facepalms
[12:51] Faith Diesel: this one was not a ward
[12:51] Faith Diesel: giggles
[12:51] Faith Diesel: returned to me yesterday
[12:51] Nicolie Luv: OMG

[12:53] Lana Swallowtail: lol...your character can react to it..
[12:53] Tas: "I missed something...er um appendage?"
[12:53] Faith Diesel: thats better
[12:53] Lana Swallowtail: right now if I thought I could open that door...I could call a story teller..
