Thanks

Just want to clarify a point about Darkwalk. If you can't actually see in the dark (because you are a troll perhaps or you have say a Darksee spell or something) you can't really do that much other than hide or fumble about (which fortunately is silenced...). Which is not to say it is useless at all. It does limit it. Or do people just assume that it also gives the caster some form of Darksee, which seems a bit over the top to me... Cheers

While the Lanbril thief in the campaign I was running was undercover in Sandheart (tracking down someone to 'deliver a message'), I had the Boss take him under his wing and suggest he invest in a little votive statue. It was proving impractical otherwise. Of course that meant he owed the Boss a bit more and was a bit more under his thumb, but hey, them's the breaks. I have also been running the Lanbrils doing occasional Heroquest Heists where they manage to sneak into temples in the middle of a ceremony and effectively steal some Rune Points, which was an idea I obviously stole from here! Probably a bit off piste, but quite good fun!

Yep got that 😀

Cheers, I think Moonlighters is in the first book, the others are useful - I have ended up hiding a shrine to Krarsht elsewhere - see that what happens 🙂 But I was about to use some Beggars in my next adventure so good timing.

Wow! That looks awesome! Will do!

I’ve not been able to get my hands on Pavis Gateway to adventure so I am just using the original book. I sometimes make stuff up on the hoof but it invariably comes back to bite me on the arse when I forget what I’ve done!

I know there were lots of gaps left for us to fill in, and I have done (and will do), but I just wondered if anyone else ever got round to filling more of them in... I like to print off the map A1 size at a local print shop and if I can add more details it makes the whole thing more immersive. Just wondered what other people have done?

Thanks

Yes I’ve been doing that. but what does Chameleon do to modify this? That is exactly what prompted the discussion at the table! And it emerged one of the players had never seen it, which I am glad to say has now been rectified.

I a bit confused by how Chameleon works. I get that it isn't an invisibility spell it makes the caster blend into the background. But I have a confused player and now I am not clear either: Spell description: “The caster blends into the background, permitting use of their Hide skill even while moving.” I didn't know that they couldn't use Hide while moving - if someone is creeping up on someone I get them to roll vs Hide. Perhaps with a modifier. So does this just mean that they use their normal Hide skill but have no modifiers for movement? Which are [whatever I make up presumably]. I am assuming this because the next statement says 100% And I assume that using a missile weapon or casting a spell is 'moving'. “If the user remains still, their Hide skill is automatically 100%, even in the open.” This is why I guess that if they are moving they are not automatically hidden. But can people spot them with a good enough roll. So basically what it does is it buffs your Hide Skill up to 100% if you stay still. “If the caster engages a foe in melee, the foe must succeed in a Scan roll each round to attack, parry, or dodge the caster.” So here the opponent just needs to make a simple roll irrespective of what the caster does. Sorry, I am a bit confused by this... How do other people interpret it?

Thanks for everyone’s input in the end they just let him go with a promise not to tell anyone…he seemed pretty honourable. Players eh…

That is a good point…

Ok so I think I am going to play it like this: the PCs pretty much all have high Hate (Lunar Empire) passions but not as high as the leader of the rebel outlaws they are currently with (largely by accident). That leader (Anya, exiled Sartarite) wants the captive dead and forcefully argues that they will all end up nailed to a cross if they don’t just kill him. The captured Carmanian argues in his most reasonable tones that this is not the case we honour all such agreements etc. But who do they believe…? If they are really worried he will suggest that they could take him to Tourney Altar and conduct the negotiations with the authorities in Boldhome or Swenstown. He really hates Pavis and would give him a way to relocate. (Bit dodgy I know…but they haven’t been there and I thought it would be fun!) If he were a Humakti who would those negotiations be with I wonder? He has no nearby family of course. The 7 Mothers are not relevant, I assume. The Temple of Humakt? Or the military administration? I am also assuming that his ransom as a Noble (1000L with his family) will be very different from his ransom as a Lunar Officer (250L from the Temple or military authorities?). He has some pretty expensive gear which I am sure will be eyed up…which the Humakti PC will also need to protect!

I was going to assume it would YT but Humakt is even better!
