Mark Mohrfield Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Was just leafing through my copy of Ringworld and noticed that Puppeteers are listed as having two different Int rolls, 1d6+15 in the Creatures book and 2d6+15 in the Explorer book. Does anyone know which is correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Absentia Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Well, given they have two heads... Seriously, though, the errata in the Ringworld Companion reads: Quote CREATURES BOOK: (1) Kzin and Puppeteer characteristics in the creatures book are superceded [sic] by the slightly different values found on pages 47 and 51, respectively, of the explorer book. Page 51 confirms 2D6+15. I'd never noticed the discrepancy before. While great in terms of average Puppeteers, 1D6+15 would bring their species maximum in just on par with the City Builders and Healers (both 2D6+9), and I was always of the impression that Puppeteer intelligence outstripped everyone. With the likely exception of the Protectors (INT+5D6!). !i! 1 Quote ...developer of White Rabbit Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Mohrfield Posted May 18, 2021 Author Share Posted May 18, 2021 Thanks. I actually have the Companion, but missed the errata. It's not exactly prominently displayed. Nice to learn the Outsiders have 2D6+12 as well. I always thought just 2d6+6 was low for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
