This monster needs more of a life... It can finnaly leave the house, so it hangs out in the attic.

Actually... the box is on Neil (SS), Alan (Sith) had it, but Frankie (me) told him to hand it to Neil after telling him about the Mu thing, to see if he could find out more about it at the school.

And I could see us getting into a 'food fight' with the monster. "Eat the corpse so we don't have to explain it!" "Growl roar hiss" (translation: I only eat hearts) "What? You want some A1 with him? Fine! Now eat!"

And my next character is SO having maxed dodge... it seems to be the only combat skill which is equal to survival thus far.

There is a reason, none of you have figured it out however. I think someone mentioned the correct reason, but I don't remember who or when.

*resists from making a ton of puns related to hearts*

Well, if it only eats hearts, then I think Krylo is safe....


So it's kinda like a REALLY violent version of the Heartless from Kingdom Hearts, in KH, they steal your heart, here... they eat it. (alright. I think I've gotten far enough off subject... time to come back.)


IHMN, your next character should be a big time hunter kind of guy (poacher maybe) so he would have lots of weapons to take care of the monster with.

I have decided that this guy has the second best chance of survival (Low HP, but a high HP would make him a meat shield and always go first).

All stats must be at least three.

Now that it's corrected, your Dodge is formidable at 76, you have a handgun skill, and while he is for the most part an idiot at 5 EDU, he will be a good survivor, if nothing else.

IHateMakingNames 03-25-2004 04:18 PM

Changed it a bit, now he can sneak around to. I am assuming that will make monsters/cult people not notice him as much.

That hurts, Jessa. Really it does.

Besides... Frankie's the one who might end up getting his heart eaten, and, unlike me, he can't live without one.

Edit: Wouldn't his dodge be 86? You said it's dex x 2 for the base, right? So that would be 36 with his 18 dex... plus his 50 of actual skill, would be 86.

IHateMakingNames 03-25-2004 04:20 PM

With a 40 disguise, is that good enough to disguise one self as a cult member then pretend to be one with 70 in fast talk?

Edit - kyrlo, I edited that in after he posted.

Forever Zero 03-25-2004 04:21 PM

IHMN, sneak is a skill you need to activate, but saying, "I sneak up on..." is enough for me to do a sneak roll. However as a warning, there are both Psychic monsters, and monsters that hunt on smell, so Sneak won't work on every monster, and it won't work if you were already spotted, so no going, "The monster sees me, so I sneak up on it..."

As for the disguise, you would of course need the clothes, but it should be alright. The disguis lets you see a cultist and make sure to dress properly, and the Fast Talk should get you by many situations.

EDIT: He upped his dodge, it used to be 40 bonus, not 50.
