I have a couple questions about how Sage skills might stack with other skills: 1) If a Sage uses Augment to give themself "Resist Charm" and also has "Resist Mind Effects," is the first Resist Charm passive as if Immune? (Basically stacking 2 Resist Charms for a one-off) 2) Does ...

Fibble launches himself at the nearest sorcerer with both daggers spinning. The mage tries to block with the tome but too late. One blade knocks the book aside, and the other sinks into the soft belly and cuts up to the sternum. [Roll: 12 +2 DOUBLE STRIKE +1 Weapon Specialization -2 sorcerer = 13 VI...

When the door opens, Fibble grabs a Fast sled and dives into the chute. At the first split, he pulls to the Right. The tunnel spirals down and down before splitting again. Fibble again chooses the right hand tunnel. Oh no! There's a dead end! We're all going to die... The sled breaks through the wal...

"Bernie, you stay here. I think they want me to look at something over there. Stay, Bernie. Stay."

Fibble saunters over to the torture table and examines the keyhole.
[Spot + Pick Lock + Locksmith + Remove Trap]

Fibble's eyes light up when he sees the blue flame. Before anyone can stop him, he picks up a tongs and pokes the fire. The flame leaps into the air and slowly capers around the room. "I knew it was smiling at me! I want it! Please! Someone catch it! CATCH IT! I've never had a pet flame. I will...

Fibble wanders into the alcove containing the Depraved corpses and methodically rummages through their gear. "Ugly rock. Bit of string. Interesting rock. Counterfeit coin. Better counterfeit coin. Burnt cork. Ewwww! Who keeps pudding in their pocket?" [OOC: Spot on the corpses while we wait]

Fibble cleans off his blade and wanders over to the pile of retrieved books. "This is such a strange thing ter find in the ice, don't ye think? Do ye think it's magic ice? The books aren't soggy or anythin'. OH! Maybe the books are magic!" Fibble picks a book up excitedly but is distracted...

Fibble scampers toward the equipment pile and just manages to evade the spear trap (Disarm). He jams the pick into the trap mechanism, disarming it permanently. Fibble straps on his knives and turns to the nearest Depraved grunt. "Oh! Aren't ye a sore sight for eyes! Let's add a little color to...

The Guthrie seems momentarily startled by the hand gripping his wrist. "What are...? Oh! Hi there! I don't think we have to worry about the element of surprise since I'm pretty certain they know we're here since they put us in here and chained us and did you see the gargoyle? Isn't it incredibl...

[[Kerwin]] The Guthrie grins up at the monstrous gargoyle. "Yer quite large! And ya speak Common! Oooh! That was very interesting with the letters on your skin!" The Guthrie is distracted by the emergence of another Valky'vi, this one from the ice. "It's a right nest of Valkyn'vi, is...

A Guthrie in red and white striped trousers and a lemon yellow vest sits up, rubbing a lump on the side of his head. "What in seven hells? Who hit me?" He peers around slowly. "And who are all of WHAT IS THAT?!" The Guthrie drags himself to his feet and walks over to the giant st...

Does taking a Resist more than twice give any benefit? I realized that it's entirely possible to have a Level 4 Guthrie with 4 Resist Fear (Essence Boon, Guthrie 1, Tribal Protector 2, Beast Hunter 2 for Savage or Essence Boon, Guthrie 1, Man at Arms 2, Peasant Hero 2 for Common). Mostly asking out ...

Sweet! I actually feel less clear. (Not your fault, Malachi and Isho. Rules are muddy, which is the point of playtest year.) 1) Based on the Scream definition that Isho posted, yes Screams affect a person in Haven. Also, per Malachi's clarification from Taunt, Taunt would be ineffective (as would Fe...

Question 1: would the Scream: Magic Taunt effect of Improved Visage of Power spell cause a person in Haven to leave the Haven to attack the spell caster? (I know it's possible to track someone to the "general location" of their Haven.) Question 2: would a Scream: Sleep call disrupt Roach o...

The new magic/spell rules feel a lot like AD&D, especially with the spell components. (No judgment, just calling what I see.) If that's the intent, I'd like to see a skill added to Magus in the vein of "Create Spell Scroll." Let mages make spell scrolls for the things they think are re...
