Re: (D2 LE along the river) Redistribution of Wealth

When Naoko will stand from her bow, she'll be alone with Hanakuso. Where her interlocutor was standing an instant ago only lies a kometsuga's leaf.

Mechanical rolls outside events

Rolls "at the end of the day" (rumors, some school abilities like Iuchi Meishōdō Master) can benefit from any Void point left at the end of the day's event.

Re: GM questions

I've been a bit too quiet and not that active so it hasn't come up yer, but just in case - for any rolls outside events (I think the only obvious thing that comes to mind atm is rumours?), I'm assuming we can only spend Void if we have some left unused from the event? Thanks! :) Yes. Worth a clarif...

Re: Announcements

Day 3 is up. A few adjustments: 1. NPCs should be less cryptic on average from now on, whether in Tidbits or during direct interactions with them. 2. Rulings weren't very clear about what should happen when you roll a Tidbit you already rolled previously, and there had been inconsistencies. Inconsi...

Re: GM questions

As per discussion with Soshi-san, I'd like to make sure it would be ok to have a scary story night say on the LE of Day 3? No GM participation required, though any monks who wanted to share scary monk stories would be welcome of course. Just wanted to confirm it didn't interfere with the plans of t...

Hate to do this but I think I need to bow out. My vertigo has been worsening to the point where any movement, including rolling over in my sleep, sets it off.

Re: GM questions

Might not make much of a difference, but could I maybe add one rolled (and possibly kept) die to one of my checks for D2? :roll: I'll allow it but only a randomly determined check, to avoid both a full reroll of the check and getting advantage from the prescience of knowing how everything else will...
