Heroica RPG General Discussion

[Sandy]

Sandy, would Nyx's Magic Counter still work with the Catsuit?

The suit effectively has 1/3 chance of changing COUNTER, DAMAGE and Free Hits to a MISS, so if the dodge is activated on a Magic Counter, then you wouldn't be causing damage to the opponent either. Remember that 2/3 times the rolls would work normally.

[Flipz]

Seconded. I also dislike it when people try to bid for an item that hasn't even been dropped yet. It could make a party leader pocket an item that is useless to them, but has already been sold out of character via pm.

In my case, it actually helped me a lot, since I was able to get a rough Gold value on the cat suit for loot division purposes--it's rather important, since Nagure wasn't getting much of value; once I had an idea of how valuable the stuff is, I was able to discuss with Endgame and Costy who would get what, so everyone's happy.

Wait--were we SERIOUSLY the only party to bring along Phoenix Essences?! The Kitchen party I can understand--they're poor and can't afford it. But Nyx and Thothwick not bringing even one?! After 53?!? Come on, guys, you know better than that!

Thus Violetta is now newt in the street. Yay.

No, I don't think Arthur has that scroll ye... Oh wait, I see what you did there.

I can't wait to see her reaction to them taking her clothes.

And Sorrow promptly has a nervous breakdown, nearly vomitting.

[Tanma]

Made some edits to the character tv tropes page. I was a little iffy about Wren's appearances, but I think I got them all. If anyone thinks up any tropes for characters but doesn't have the time to add them, please post it here and I will try to get to it.

With what money?

Hey, I'm extremely forgetful roleplaying Thothwick as being extremely frugal.

Vomiting in a back alley, are we? Taking lessons from Karie I see!

Also, just noticed Karie and Violetta have the same face and hair colour. The only difference is how Karie does her hair it seems.

Lets... not put them in the same room, shall we?

Perhaps Violetta first turned to stealing to provide for her little sister, many years ago?

Ooooh! Interesting plot device!

[Tanma]

Yes.

So can anyone give me a list of characters or tropes that they wanted added?

[Kintobor]

It's possible. I do have plans for her sister, but if anyone wants to meddle with it, drop me a suggestion. The only problem with that is that we know Karie's parents were wealthy merchants, she was the youngest of two daughters, and that she got to Eubric by ship. Although, the wonderful thing about what's given says nothing about adoption!

And then Sarah turns out to be the mother, and Sorrow is actually Violetta's greatx20 grandfather?

Then again, I don't think that is how genetics work...

Don't forget Haldor being the father of her sister's illegitimate child!

Don't forget Mandric being her long-lost cousin.

It is scary how many descendants Sorrow may actually have. The number of them who would kill their greatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreat grandfather.

[Tanma]

Well maybe you should have paid child support.

[swils]

Yes.

There's definitely been some instances of the Walking Shirtless. I know Thormy started out as such and there were a few others (Haldor, I think?).

[Scubacarrot]

Wait, how old is Sorrow? The hall lists 428? Assuming every child is only in between humans or races with similair ages, which is unlikely even in itself (we have elves, dwarves and more long living races, logically halfbloods should be a common thing), each mother would get a child at the average age of like 18 for that to work. That's really young. Obviously not if we're going by medieval times, but still.

...Nyx REALLY needs to get her hands on some Overkill Gloves.

[Kintobor]

I now really want to see Violetta live, just to see if this could fruition into something beautiful. It would be up to Sandy's discretion, but I really like the idea. Karie being related to Violetta via younger sister, or perhaps Violetta cared for Karie at a young age which lead her to crime makes a bit of sense, and it makes Karie go that much farther into Crush the Cutie and Hero Blue Screen of Death.

Sorrow was in his mid twenties when he was happily engaged (didn't last long ) with Sarah... assuming every mother had their child in that 20-25 range, he could easily be a great x15-20 grandfather.

Unfortunately great x17 grandfather wants to see his great x17 granddaughter dead.

...I'm really wondering how I'd react if that becomes canon.

Yoro's supposed to have the same hair colour too, but I didn't have that hair piece at hand.

And he couldn't cast the spell unless Karie turned him into a newt.
