To confirm, the nest is at our current level - L1 on the map - where we are on the landing with the dwarf statue, a passageway is before us, and stairs continue down. Yes, which might imply there was another stair for the fae to descend as they are somewhere out in the passageways away from this la...

(keeping mind you're meant to be bringing the Amaranthine sorcerers' war plans back to your webmaster) " I'm retained by the elders of the City of Masks, to gather likely leaders for their host. You two look as such; sergeants or better, I think. If you can bring a squad of your own, we'll eac...

Indeed, Delx and Elcroon heard the spirit speak! So too did Black Dog , who crouched and whimpered at the oddity of the stony voice. She still is crouched, looking fearfully at the nearest wall. You hear a vague and distant outcry, somewhere in the tunnels beyond the door of the stairwell. It seems ...

Lyin nods, still smiling. "There's plenty of coin to be had, m'lads. Not only front pay and win pay, but also the plunder."

There is a nest of fae at this level, and the one who escaped your arrows ran here. answers the very stone of the stairwell. Its voice echoes a bit.

The old woman grins. "Call me Lyin. I am who you see, an elderly warrior of the Sunset Sea. I look to recruit other warriors for the coming clashes. Are you interested in glory?"

Uhm, sure I guess, let's test it out and see how it all works Bishop casts Converse with Otherworldly Being Spirit of stone, wake from your slumber and tell us where and what is the nearest danger? Could you please roll [_2d6] for Bishop (+ … 8 for Erudite, staff, and vestments … uh … the roll matt...

He dropped it because of post #228. Feel free to ask again, he is happy to explain and cast it To answer the question of danger: Dungeon Goons requires that you roll against "DS" for a given effort. If you roll under DS, then typically you take Strain = the difference. In the case of aski...

Small AZAG World Map.png You're a small group of adventurers who have just plundered the house of a sorcerer in the Amaranthine City . The City is all opulent towers of crystal and marble that seemed to grow overnight. They had, in fact, been summoned from some other place or time by the city's rul...

Is anyone on Azag able to work with or repair Star King technology or is it totally beyond understanding? I'm just trying to dial in how rare/valuable/irreplaceable this kind of stuff is. There may be a few madfolk researchers who are involved in tinkering with Star King tech. The tendencies to exp...

Great Missile Weapon(?) (Artillery carbine?) 40s This is a science-fantasy world with ancient tech from the "Star Kings". So what you have is a relict of the ancients, a Star Kings carbine (2 Strain, DS 10) . There are special rules for using this, which I will cover in the new Tech threa...

Rods of the Star Kings • zapper: 1 Strain, DS 12. • carbine: 2 Strain, DS 10. • blaster: 3 Strain, DS 8. For each of these, the roll is +Erudite+Skulker. On a HIT , the target is out of action. DM makes the roll in secret when you want to use it. Here is why: Each of these fails on doubles miss. E....

@silifi: An experiment Rhul Vennos conducted went horribly awry. People of Kaimanu remember him as a dangerous and foolhardy individual. ← details? Also , Rhul may choose to add to his? inventory: Memory Lenses Wearable: Contact lenses, eyeglasses, or goggles Effect: Allows the wearer to mentally re...

"ambushes" ⇒ roll +Skulker to avoid it getting a "free" attack against you
"BOSS" ⇒ DS does not drop as you hurt it
"psychic domination" ⇒ if rendered Out of Action by Strain, you become its zombie until someone else defeats it

DS 8 Amaranthine acolyte (psychic domination (fight with +Erudite)) Duckbilled ophidian (pecks) NIght jackal (bites, flies) Restless dead (weapons) Tafoukt scorpion (stings) Typical thug (weapons) DS 10 Beryl cat (bites and claws, ambushes) Carnivorous monitor (bites) Deinonychus (kicks and bites) ...

I think that a "specialty tool" like scalpels should be the same price as lockpicks. 5s.

Hi! This thread will be what it says on the label, including discussions of rules, rulings, personal schedules, character creation, etc. First substance: yes @silifi you can have scalpels, but let's not think of them as a reflavoring of a dagger. Scalpels are far more delicate and precise, not suite...

Thanks so much!
