===========================================

Popping back into being at The Unnameable, handing Sister Mary my fancy magic lamp so she can go spread the words of her God to the heathen monsters more effectively, and offering to take that foul black magic Wither off her hands in return.  Moving the lore/luck stats over and rolling for happy fun reading time.  Also restoring a point of Sister Mary's sanity.

<Tewi> Well, I'm going to make my book rolls since I'm doing that regardless of what happens
<Tewi> Cabala of Saboth (Tome) - Movement: Exhaust & spend 2 movement points to make a Lore -2 check.  Pass= draw 1 skill & discard.  Fail= nothing.
<Tewi> Old Journal (Tom) - Movement: Exhaust & spend 1 movement points to make a Lore -1 check.  Pass= gain 3 clue tokens & discard.  Fail= nothing.
<Tewi> I'll start with the Cabala.  Lore is 5, -2 gives me three dice, need one success for a skill.
<Tewi> 3d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Tewi rolls 3d6 and gets 11." [3d6=4, 6, 1]
<Tewi> I am more skillful.
<Strago|Dexter> Hooray.
<Tewi> Exhaust the motorcycle to restock my movement points, try for the journal.  Only -1 this time, so four dice for three clues.
<Tewi> 4d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Tewi rolls 4d6 and gets 19." [4d6=4, 6, 6, 3]
<Strago|Dexter> Alex: do we actually get to have an Encounter this turn? I'm not sure we do.
<Tewi> I now have seven clue tokens, and am sitting around the Unnameable waiting for stuff to happen to me.

[Shale]

Run like a scared little girl to the General Store.

[AndrewRogue]

Strags: Decided to roll for Sister Mary, Andy, as long as you don't mind. Team game and we're pretty much acting by committe this whole turn anyway. And it's not like it went well for us, so you ought to approve. ;_; She joins Dexter and Kate in the hospital, folding origami. Discards her Cross and Voice of Ra, retaining her Elder Sign and the Magic Lamp. Here's the breakdown.

> So... Dexter reaches out telepathically from his hospital bed (where he is making orgigami frogs that jump when you press on them with Kate!) to control Sister Mary's actions.
> She moves to the French Hill Streets.
<Shale> Illusionist Extraordinaire indeed.
> (Should I bother spending her Clue Token to try and pass the Horror Check? With her Blessing she does have a 50/50 shot.)
<Shale> You can wait until after rolling the check.
<Shale> ...oh, right, minimum will.
> Ja.
> I don't get a check without the Clue.
<Shale> Wait, didn't you say you were using Voice of RA?
<Shale> That's Upkeep.
> ... ah, yes.
<Shale> Doesn't help here, but still.
> Okay, yes, good point. Voice of Ra, -1 mod and 1 San cost, she has 4 Lore so rolls 3 dice.
> 3d6 for Egypt Power
* Hatbot --> "Strago|Dexter rolls 3d6 for Egypt Power and gets 15."12 [3d6=6, 4, 5]
> ... well. Let's hope that hasn't used up all my luck. Success, obviously.
> I decide to forego an attempt at making the Horror check. Sister Mary takes 2 Sanity damage from the Star Spawn, is now at 1/7.
> Now, combat.
<Shale> 1/7?
> Mary's got 3 Fight, +1 Voice of Ra, +5 Lamp of Alhazred.
> Yeah, she started this round at 4.
<Shale> Her maxes are 7 Sanity, 3 Stamina.
> Correct.
<Shale> ...1 out of 7. Not 1 sanity, 7 stamina. Fuck, this week needs to be over before I try to think again.
<Tewi> Part of my upkeep was raising it to 5.
<Shale> It can only end in tears.
> Oh! Okay, 2 Sanity, then.
> Anyhow.
> Mary's got 3 Fight, +1 Voice of Ra, +5 Lamp of Alhazred.
> -3 is the Star Spawn's mod.
> 6 dice, I'm blessed and need 3 successes.
> 6d6 to be a Killer Battle Nun.
* Hatbot --> "Strago|Dexter rolls 6d6 to be a Killer Battle Nun. and gets 19."12 [6d6=6, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4]
> ... CLUE TOKEN
<Tewi> Why did we let Strago handle the dice again?
> d6
* Hatbot --> "Strago|Dexter rolls d6 and gets 1."12 [d6=1]
> ... fuck fuck fuck shit balls fuck.
> That's not how probability works, Yakko. ;_;

[Excal]

No guts, no glory.  I'll spend all of my cash on that there powder.

[AndrewRogue]

Bloody weather... making the missus feel sick, and I ain't feeling too hot either.

An Evil Fog
(Environment- Weather)

Will checks in Arkham are made at a -1 Penalty. Sneak checks in Arkham are made at a +1 bonus. Fliers do not move.

A clue appears at the Unvisited Isle. A Gate appears at the Graveyard (spawning a Hound of Tindalos and Ghoul). Cross moves on white, Moon moves on black.

[Shale]

Unless anybody else feels like doing it, I'm gonna kill the Ghoul, sneak by the Hound, and close that gate.

[Hunter Sopko]

I was told that the monsters ignore me until I close the gate (or at least until the turn after I come out of the gate), so I suppose I just sit tight and wait for the encounter phase to close the gate.

If I DO, I slide my Fight over to 5 for this round.

If that isn't the case, tell me so and I'll keep the Fight/Will where it is.

[Strago]

Spending $2 to restore my Stamina to full this turn. Sigh.

[Yakumo]

Shit like this makes me hate games.

<Yakumo> Alex, you here?
<Ranmilia> Yes
<Yakumo> Alright.  Well, Shale hasn't moved yet, so I'll just put in my post that if he goes past me he can have my money.  Going to try jumping into that new gate at the Graveyard.
<Yakumo> First, shifting to 0 move/3 sneak and using the motorcycle to get to the Graveyard at all.
<Yakumo> Then we're going to attack the Ghoul.  Horror check first, at 3 will, 0 modifier.
<Yakumo> 3d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls 3d6 and gets 12." [3d6=1, 5, 6]
<Yakumo> No problems there.  Now, casting Wither.  5 lore, no modifier here either.
<Yakumo> 5d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls 5d6 and gets 15." [5d6=5, 1, 1, 5, 3]
<Yakumo> That gives me +3 to combat, 2 fight, -1 modifier, four dice.
<Yakumo> 4d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls 4d6 and gets 15." [4d6=4, 5, 5, 1]
<Yakumo> So far so good.
<Yakumo> Now, the important one.  Dodging the Hound. <_<
<Yakumo> 3 sneak, -1 modifier, two dice.
<Yakumo> 2d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls 2d6 and gets 4." [2d6=3, 1]
<Yakumo> Can't afford to fight it, so clue tokens.
<Yakumo> d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls d6 and gets 2." [d6=2]
<Yakumo> d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls d6 and gets 2." [d6=2]
<Yakumo> d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls d6 and gets 1." [d6=1]

<Yakumo> d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls d6 and gets 2." [d6=2]
<Yakumo> d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls d6 and gets 1." [d6=1]
<Yakumo> d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls d6 and gets 1." [d6=1]
<Yakumo> ...seriously.
<Yakumo> God DAMN it.
<Yakumo> Well, guess I may as well roll it out. <_<
<Yakumo> One die to not just go insane!
<Yakumo> d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "Yakumo rolls d6 and gets 3." [d6=3]
<Yakumo> And I'll end up at the Asylum. FUCK YOU HATBOT.

[Shale]

Oh that's just plain evil.

And Yakko's behind me in the turn order so I can't go into the gate without causing a time paradox. Aaaaargh. Move to the Black Cave for an encounter.

[Strago]

... heh.

[AndrewRogue]

Yakko: You seem to have forgotten to account for the Environment Modifier on... both sets of rolls? Since you got two successes for the ghoul, we'll let that go. Roll one more die to try and sneak past the Hound. If you succeed, you get your clues back.

[Yakumo]

I... apparently did.  Well then. 

<Tewi> Mrf.  So apparently I can't read.  Or my memory sucks.  Or something.  I blame making rolls at two in the morning since I realized we'd hit two days in the phase. <_<
<Tewi> Anyone around to see my one die to try not to fail horribly?
<FrankenFran> Hi~
<Tewi> d6
<Hatbot>

<Tewi> ...<_<
<Tewi> Well, I'm not entirely sure how to take this now.  But it's good!

[Nitori]

<FrankenFran> Yay~
<FrankenFran> I need confirmation on whether I need to sneak or not
<Tewi> I think you do but I'd ask Andy to be sure.  Or you could tempt fate and just roll it just in case, and if it works you don't have to worry about asking! <_<
<FrankenFran> Okay then, sure
<FrankenFran> The thing is +1, 3 Sneak, +2 to evade for six dice, 1 success needed
<FrankenFran> 6d6
<Hatbot>
ACTION --> "FrankenFran rolls 6d6 and gets 24." [6d6=4, 4, 2, 6, 5, 3]
<Tewi> See?  No problems either way now.
<FrankenFran> And that takes care of that
<FrankenFran> " Sneak checks in Arkham are made at a +1 bonus." Does that include evade? I don't know
