ok will be back in a bit, dinner time.

 

[Micbunny]

By the way, it seems BMR is eating my posts >.<

 

[XavierZeherisHarper]

I think I mentioned the possible problem in a earlier post.

 

[Ghaigido]

Sorry for taking so long. Life is happening, in the form of dinner and ... other distracting things. ^.^

 

[XavierZeherisHarper]

It's alright. By the way, we switch to Parasite Eve tomorrow, right? Just wanting to check.

 

[Micbunny]

I think that was the decision >.>

 

[Ghaigido]

Wednesday, thursday, or friday, or when this day finishes in game. .. whichever comes first.

 

[XavierZeherisHarper]

Ah. That'll be awhile. Benen might join us on Parasite Eve though.

 

[Benen Eachann]

ok I'm back

Making a Sanity Check

When a character encounters a gruesome, unnatural, or supernatural situation, the DM may require the player to make a Sanity check using percentile dice (d%). The check succeeds if the result is equal to or less than the character’s current Sanity.

 

[XavierZeherisHarper]

Cool. Because I rolled a 4. Not joking. A 4, on a D%. Booyah!

 

[Ghaigido]

Daayyuum. XD

 

[Ghaigido]

No need for will save. Please edit your posts so I don't get confused later. ^.^;;

 

[Benen Eachann]

I rolled a 2 harper. beat that. and I started with 5 sanity.. thats all. very low wisdom score, lower wisdom means less substitutable to insanity. so now I have a sanity score of 7/99

ok post is edited

 

[XavierZeherisHarper]

I don't believe DM mentioned all the rules for sanity, since they are so variable, like if we had sanity resistance, so that spell casters could cast spells without going insane, or the like.

 

[Ghaigido]

... Um... Benen? Your starting sanity is.. 5? That means you have a Wisdom of 1. That's... not possible.

Starting Sanity

A character’s starting Sanity equals his Wisdom score multiplied by 5. This score represents a starting character’s current Sanity, as well as the upper limit of Sanity that can be restored by the Heal skill (see The Heal Skill and Mental Treatment, later in this section). After creation, a character’s current Sanity often fluctuates considerably and might never again match starting Sanity. A change in a character’s Wisdom score changes his starting Sanity in terms of what treatment with the Heal skill can restore. Current Sanity, however, does not change if Wisdom rises or falls.

 

[Benen Eachann]

sorry then its 60

 

[Ghaigido]

Also benen... your sanity would go down by 2, not up by 2.

Harper, I said that Sanity Restance is equal to character level... although, I need to edit it in the rules... because I meant that it is character level, but cannot reduce lower than a successful Sanity Check. House ruling.

 

[XavierZeherisHarper]

So I'm... 97 Max, 90 currently.

 

[Ghaigido]

sorry then its 60

Ah, okay. Much better... *phew* I was worried for a minute there. XD

 

[Benen Eachann]

lol ok, it would make since then, he has been through a lot, seen many wars, he would be almost insane.

 

[XavierZeherisHarper]

So spellcasting doesn't cause insanity, then? That would make sense.

 

[Ghaigido]

Spellcasting does... but it would take a long time. Using the Sanity Point Loss = Spell Level Cast version of it.

 

[Benen Eachann]

casters can go insane pretty quick, but I wouldn't think it would do anything unless it was horrifying. something like a cure spell, or blur wouldn't cause insanity loss, but I would think summon spells would.

 

[XavierZeherisHarper]

Not really long, especially for arcane casters. They go through spells quick. Besides, Sanity Resistance should affect that anyway.
