LivingTriskele Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I've looked in the Spot Rules chapter for how to handle a character that fails his/her Stamina roll when faced with the stench of a thousand rotting heads. I didn't see anything. I'm assuming a -15% on Combat, Communication, Manipulation, Perception and Physical skills for 1D6 rounds (not to mention possible SAN loss...). Does this meet with approval? I'm open to suggestions... Quote "If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales."

rust Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I would treat the character as Stunned until he made a successful Stamina roll. Quote "Mind like parachute, function only when open." (Charlie Chan) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Absentia Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 This is a Resistance roll of Stamina vs. Potency, yes? Rust's suggestion of treating the character as stunned is spot on. !i! Quote  ...developer of White Rabbit Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivingTriskele Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 This is a Resistance roll of Stamina vs. Potency, yes? Rust's suggestion of treating the character as stunned is spot on. I was thinking just a Stamina roll with a x 3 multiplier. Pot vs. CON on the Resistance Table is for the white, purple-spotted mushrooms growing along the edge of the lagoon... :party: A thousand rotting heads, eh? Can we get a little background on that Yeah, they scream a lot and babble incoherently too. Just another day at the Evil Shaman Grand Convention Hall.

Pot vs. CON on the Resistance Table is for the white, purple-spotted mushrooms growing along the edge of the lagoon... :party: I tend to favour 'average' and 'difficult' rolls rather than characteristic multiples. It doesn't offer the same gradation but a 'difficult' roll suggests the level of challenge eloquently, whilst offering a similar roll level to x3. Yeah, they scream a lot and babble incoherently too.
