Oh, sorry, yes. You can reattune safely with 10 minutes, or you can reattune on the fly with 1 strain per test until you make it. Normally you wouldn't know ahead of time how long it will take to reattune on the fly, but for unknown cosmic reasons you know that it'd take 4 rounds this time (and thus...

It takes four rounds, but you re-arrange your spell matrix.

[Right, my mistake. I should have given you the info from knowledge rolls without you asking. I'll try to remember to do that in the future.] [Knowledge: Horror Lore checks all around, highest is Gurunk'Gall with 19] Horus, you've never seen them yourself, but you've read about them in books. You th...

Without more information there's not much to say about the blood magic. "Uses blood, heart, and lungs" is still quite a bit of options, particularly since you don't know how they're being used specifically. Perhaps something to do with life creation / extension / revitalization. [hr] Movin...

You roll the body over and... yep. It's Gleem. His entire chest area is just wounds and blood, ripped totally open by jagged claws of some sort. Lots of uneven wounds. His heart and lungs are missing, but the damage there is very fine and precise, like a sharp knife was used. Other parts of him are ...

Making your way through the forest, your eyes are fixated upon the tracks and you don't see the body until you're almost on top of it. There's a human face down in the moss and leaves. Also, a lot of blood. You're pretty sure that it's Gleem. [Also I'm starting to keep notes on your various stats , ...

[Awareness checks all around, highest roll is Horus with 13.] Well the fire is out, and the remains are cold. No one was here since at least last night. The food hasn't been touched by animals, no marks on it at all. Most of the plates are sitting orderly. Doesn't smell like poisons to Horus, but yo...

Genna: "Oh no need to gather anything Markis, it would only slow down your search for my boy." [hr] The brief journey towards the woods is an easy stroll. Then you step among the trees and move along the path for the logging wagon, deep ruts in the ground guide your way, punctured by the o...

Fennon: "No detailed maps that we can send with you. There's the occasional cave and so forth, but nothing that a lumber crew should have gotten wrapped up in. After all, there weren't any sudden storms last night that a person would need to hide from or anything like that."

Genna is an older ork lady. She is the mother of Tartuk actually, and whispers a prayer to the Passions for you to have a safe journey and find him quickly. She gives you a bag with three Salves of Wound Closure, two Booster Potions, and a Healing Potion. No charge, this is all official business for...

"Of course, I will stay here for a bit until Mixie and Zixie arrive in a while. Perhaps you can't see them yet from this distance, but they will be along." Those of you who squint can see two windlings on the edge of the village. They seem younger, barely a foot tall each. Easy to miss wit...

Alright, we have a party: [*]Saoirse, Elf Elementalist [*]Horus, Elf Nethermancer [*]Markis, Troll Cavalrytroll [*]Gurunk'Gall, Troll Beastmaster We can still make adjustments here or there as people settle on what skills and talent options and such that they want, but it's enough to get going. [hr]...

Looks great

Your skill/talent ranks seem unbalanced: 9 ranks on Talents, should be 8 so you need to bump one of them down by one. Skills are the correct amount, but too many piled in. They have a maximum starting rank of 3 like Talents do, so Read/Write Langauge and Speak Language need to have one rank each mov...

I dunno, roll 1d6 and if it's 1-5 it's totally overriden, otherwise you still jerk around some.

At some point you gotta make up your own rules pal :3

The Seizure program would continue to run on the Network that was generating it, but it wouldn't have an effect until the RAS Override effect went away. If RAS Override was ended before the Seizure was ended the seizing would start back up agian.

I'd say that the Seize only keeps happening if it has 6+ Net Hits, otherwise the RAS Override wins.

It'd disable their muscles from communicating with their brain, halting the seizure. Probably used in hospitals a lot.

Tengu also said that they had a martial type in mind. Other than Pixels it seems that everyone else is new enough to Earthdawn that it'll take a few days to read and set up. Folks can PM me here or find me on Discord if they have questions, or post in the topic. We should be able to get started by t...

Hello, all. I'm wanting to start a new play by post game for Earthdawn using the 4th edition. The changes from previous editions are relatively small but they're a lot of quality of life things that make it worth it to switch. Metaplot is the same as before: Horrors, Scourge, Kaers, Adepts, all that...

An example is using Purify The Mind to remove a "life damaging phobia", threshold 2, and then rolling 2 hits. The spell works and there are zero net hits to stage down the time with. It's not the worst, just something to keep in mind when using net hits as a spell effect modifier. I will t...

It's fine that you can resist a power entirely. What's weird is that powers that target a threshold can activate with 0 net hits, but powers that target a resistance roll can't activate with 0 net hits. They activate with at least 1 net hit, or they don't activate at all. That's what makes them weird.

The dice stage down the time required to lock on to the reflection. I could add that note to the power. A rare few powers are multi-mode, so having the action tied to the effect as a paragraph allows that to look nice. Eg, Eyes of the Night, Bite of the Serpent, etc. Other than that its just stylist...

I've been giving out skill points between game sessions that are in addition to the level up points since 2014.

It's a really good additional rule to use with 3e.
