Ten years ago today, I created an account on the Unseen Servant. So it's my 10 year Unseen Servantiversary! (Unseeniversary?) I haven't been on here as much lately. I spent a lot of time on these boards for the first few years. More than I probably should have. Some days I'd do nothing but check my ...

Nado shakes his head at his predicament—once again, the orders are no powers, and no shooting—at least at first. You'd think this outfit would occasionally find a use for a sharpshooter.

He stays hidden and prepares to quietly attack with the others.

Roker nods his agreement. "Anything's better than running straight across the bare beach," he says.

Let's also have Roker make a (mediocre) tactics roll.

Let's spend Nado's points as follows:

+1 Guns (to 7D!): 6
+1 Brawl: (to 4D): 3
+1 WP (to 4D): 3

What they said.

Kato waves his hand at the pirate, palm forward, in a lazy half circle. "You are calm," he says. "You will not fight us. You want to help us."

He gives a little conspiratorial wink to Kit and Vale.

Since Roker often needs to carry around a radio and isn't that great of a shot anyway, whatever is (relatively) lightweight without being useless is fine with him.

As for skill points, let's spend them thusly:

Stamina +1 (3) to 3D+2
Hide +1 (3) to 3D+2
Dodge +1 (3) to 3D+2
Brawl +1 (4) to 4D+1

I still haven't had a chance to dig into the rules and start up a character, but I hope to get to it in the next few days.

Kato gears up with his staff, blaster, binoculars, synthrope, and commlink and prepares to set out with the others.

Hi, all. Thanks for letting me in the game and sorry I’ve been quiet already—I was out of town on a road trip for a week and a half. I’ll try to catch up on the forums this weekend and get a character started, if that’s okay.

Ooooh, 1e? Weekly posting rate? I think I can manage that, if there's room for another.

And when you say you're using everything in the 1e PHB...does that include the to-hit vs. AC table?

Roker shakes his head—the effect is not unlike a dog shaking the water from his fur. "No, no...I'm okay," he says as Acme moves towards him. "No need to carry me. Let's go."

Hearing about the possibility of a duel, Kato nods solemnly. "I try to avoid violence," he says, "but very well. Clearly, my skills are needed. As you suggest, I shall challenge this scoundrelish rogue to a duel!"

Nado...bleeds. And stays low. Which turns out to be relatively easy when your leg is broken.

Kurot will "hit and run" while keeping at a distance, trying to allow the slower members time to escape.

Kurot is fully on board with the "running away" plan. If possible, he'll use his speed to help anyone who is slower.

While others are doing actual useful tasks, Kato looks around the ship to see if there might be a blast helmet and training drone around somewhere. Y'know, to practice with the Force. Of course, not having a lightsaber, just a light saber, he's not quite sure how that will work, but he's willing to ...

"Wolfman" Roker looks down at the wound in his chest with an almost detached curiosity, wondering which blood is his and which used to belong to the expired IJA Talent. He looks around, sniffs, and listens for anyone else to fight—and sensing none, reverts to human form. "Oh, man,&qu...
