Vincent: *sings* What do you do with a charged roll of 10, ear-lay in the mornin'?

((No, srsly... should I risk charging and try for a >10 next roll? As it is, that roll's not gonna do much but make the toadies laugh...))

Looking at Vincent's next roll, I'm glad I took your advice and released that spell!

Now how many kills is that for Vincent so far...? Five aboard the Frog Prince, and I think it was four on the Oyster. Not bad for a night's work!

I didn't want to wait until Friday for that, since everyone would have seen the result of the fireworks immediately. If you had cast Sparkler, even if you lit a powder keg, it wouldn't have been an instant huge explosion.

(Plus, now every player will have something to do.)

I didn't bother with a description, figuring the picture tells you all you need to know. Just note that the pirate ship is still upright. It's just missing part of the bow. And five crew members.



PS - @Severin, don't worry that the cleavers are drawn in-hand. You never actually said that you drew them, so I won't force you to drop weapons into the sea. The strength check can work as if one hand is free or Shan Mai braces himself in a way that can work with sharp blades in hand. A samurai probably knows how to do that.

Not One, but TWO New Players!

Please give a warm welcome to Noma Galway and Ruby ! I'm sure we'll enjoy their company, and I think your characters will too. Especially those who fell overboard.

I first want to say Hello, I'm the muse.

I second want to say...I want to come help you guys so bad right now! But Ruby hasn't reacted to being blown out of bed yet. I'll be there asap

I'm going to take some liberties with the timeline so, provided that I draw/scan/color the characters this weekend, the whole party is together on Monday. We can assume the waking up happened as Reaver and others were boarding the skiff, and his skiff distracted the frogs from noticing the amazon approaching. (The muse alone would easily cross water unseen.)

Hi, my character is the beautiful and rich Princess Fenella who you may have already met in my posts on Phil the Drill's ABC Fantasy Challenge. She's being forced out of her comfort zone by the disappearance of her favourite knight, a dragon who's setting fire to the kingdom and a mysterious muse who's a bit like a Barbie doll. Aka Noma.

You are the GM... you control all 4 dimensions... :D
I'm thinking fourth-dimensionally. Great Scott!

…rest his soul.



(@Non mods, Great Scott was the boss in Flat Earth's test battle. If Reaver and Phil are okay with it, Great Scott will have a twin brother.)


@Ruby, she's exactly as tall as my daughter's Rapunzel doll. I measured her using an 8½" x 11" sheet of paper. It's an accurate measurement for things that are 8½ or 11 inches tall.

I'm okay with Great Scott having a brother. As far as the fourth dimension bit, I was going for an inside joke about LSK 4-D...

Great Scott's brother could be Not-So-Hot Scott (that's what I'll call him anyway).

Any chance Zigguratron might make an appearance in Flat Earth? I'd choke out his no-neck, pyramid-looking ass! :)

(Read the ABCs of Fantasy in the Challenges Section if you want to know what the hell I"m talking about.)

In my next-to-last post, was it unclear which way Vincent was reaching when I rolled his agility check? I notice there was a bit of misunderstanding about that. :/

I think Reaver's playing off the low roll. Since Vincent lacks an agility rating, I'd say it was safe for Reaver to assume 7 did nothing for him. I know which way he was really facing, but no matter…
