Well. Just reading the channel ability off the sheet.

Clerics can do the Healing power, as I read it, at the regular PP cost but at Spirit range and can do it in bulk with +1 pp per target.

That's another difference between him doing it and a dabbler like Catalena using the same Power

You guys keep me honest. This is the first SW game here, and it is Pathfinder which is different too.

I’ll start quoting the rules text I’m using for things if it helps? Maybe in the ooc thread? I’m kinda learning the system as I go along.

Yes, OOC is prefect for looking at the mechanics. Since I am learning too, it will help me as well.

1,1 is usually a 'spectacular success'


"CRITICAL FAILURES
A Critical Failure occurs when a Wild Card rolls a 1 on both the skill die and Wild Die of a Trait roll. The attempt automatically fails and something bad happens—a weapon is dropped or gets stuck, the attack hits a friend, the vehicle crashes, spells misfire (see
Backlash, page 169), and so on.
Critical Failures cannot be rerolled by any means, even with Bennies (see the next page)."

I did ot realise you cannot use a bennie to avoid a 1,1

Correct, you can't make them go away.

In this instance though it isn't critical.

Yes, it was a good time to use that up!

Correct on the belief thing about believing something incorrect.

Oh and they did hear the ghost mention a goddess's name Desna might have something to do with the rites. Coral remembers hearing that during her spell.

Zak Religion
Art in the Blood rolled 1d8,1d6 and got 7, 3

For appropriate Desna rites

Zak knows just what to do.

Alternatively, he knows there is a temple to her in Sandpoint if they want to get a professional involved.

Probably a combo

(What is the time? How close to night?)

It is dusk. The ghost was running around as the light was fading. With the digging and gathering probably getting dark, if not now, very soon.

Ok, so stars are coming out. Good. Post tonight

Cool.

Pande, it's early fall, right? Around Rova 21?

Correct

Autumnal Equinox is in two days.

Nice ceremony, Art.

I figured her connection with stars, that constellation’s connection with Desna, and one of the values the Accidental God and Desna most share in common would be good things to center around,

Very nice. I am not going to get in the way, go ahead and post as you will.

Vyrx your up at the town gate in the arrival thread.

Pande, how are you planning to use Bennies and Action Cards? Bennies, it's a bit vague when playing over a forum since it's not "session by session." But I think if we all had an idea of the expiration/refresh schedule, it will help decision-making on when to use them or not. For your NPCs too.

And in the JTM game, Gypsy doesn't deal Action Cards more than once an encounter, but the Savage Pathfinder rules seem to have a lot of mechanics tied to the idea that the Action Cards change round by round.

Yes, Gypsy also only refreshes Bennies once per advancement I believe. Also, refreshing Action Cards every round would impact the value of some Edges.
