I like the icon. I'd add some eyes, but I have no idea where they should be, everything I try ends up looking silly :p

Anyway, eyeless golem in green:

Can I get a download link for that?

It's perfect.

And yeah, I attempted eyes, but my product was silly too.

Experience Tracker!!

Each time you level, by obtaining 100 exp, you gain 5 stat points to add to your stats in any way you wish.

Session 2:
Journal Exp:
CoM: +20exp
Adrian: +20exp

Session 3:
Participation exp:
Creator of Machines, Adrian, Taric, and Ludwig all gain 35 exp.


Totals:
Creator of Machines 1 [50/100] Levelup! 5 points to spend on stats!
Adrian 1 [50/100] Levelup! 5 points to spend on stats!
Taric 1 [20/100] Levelup! 5 points to spend on stats!
Ludwig: [60/100]
Vodstrup [80/100]
Gotz [50/100]

You may still post, or edit Session 3 Journals up until we meet for session 4.

Sorry for the delay guys, as I've said in other threads. Really bad Sinus Infection has been keeping me feeling like not doing much other than vegetate. Let's hope it passes completely soon.

I'd like my stat points all dumped into Spirit.

(How do modifiers work? I know it's a negative modifier if the state is below 50, and a positive if above 50, but I don't know much more than that.)

Modifiers are like so:

0-9 = -50
10-19 = -40
20-29 = -30
30-39 = -20
40-49 = -10
50-59 = Nul
60-69 = +10
70-79 = +20
80-89 = +30
90-99 = +40
100 = +50

Yeah, I definitely want to dump into spirit, since that controls power rolls.

And a -30 modifier hurts.

60-69 = +10
70-79 = +20
80-89 = +30
90-99 = +40
100 = +50

Huh? I thought 41-59 was +0 and then 31-40 would be -10, 21-30 would be -20, and so on.

Each stat can therefor be ranged from 1-100. For each 10 below 50 rounded up, you get a -10 modifier. For each 10 above 50 rounded down, it's a +10. Meaning, a skill score of 27, would cause a skill check to get a -20, and something like a force score of 86 would only give a +30.

E: I'd like three points in skill, to get it up to a solid 90, and for the other two - I'll follow CoM, and put those in spirit.

Makes me glad I found a way to turn a skill check action into a two force check actions, what with having a low skill but high force.

Hmm, you're right, there is a problem with the rounding up or down. I think I will go with what I have laid out here tonight. As that makes more sense and is easier for me to remember to have everything rounding down the same way. (and I think I've been rounding down in game all this time anyway, like those skeletons had 49 in something, and I was giving them -10's)

As far as I can see it, you can make any check into a different check with how you word it.

Quote from: Adrian's Journal
I'll need to write down every scrap of information I get. It'll give me at least a tiny chance to survive this hell, and if I don't, maybe some guy in my situation will find these notes down here, and get the hell out while he can.
I can't get out myself, not anymore. The blue guy has his eye on me, and the others seem to lose their mind - can't trust them. Maybe I'm already getting insane, too. If so, these might be the last reasonable thoughts I write down. Or maybe I just think they are - maybe I'm insane already.
But I can't dwell on that. I need to focus. Write down what I need to know when I inevitably go crazy.

First, the blue guy says he's a god. Could be, or he's a damn powerful wizard. The first can't be harmed by normal weapons, the second will have wards to protect him from those.
So, I need a weapon capable of killing a god. Maybe I can make one - I've got some crap going on in my mind that's beyond human. Still, making such a weapon is normally reserved for the most powerful gods. Or I can try to find one. It would take ages. Literally. I'd probably need thousands of years to locate such an artifact, let alone learn to use it.
It's a long shot - a very long shot - but it's my only chance to get that bastard down. And I'm not settling for less than 'getting him down'.

Second, Jera can't hear me. She doesn't answer my prayers. Or she doesn't care. Anyway, I'm on my own. I can't count on any of the others to help either, which brings us to point three:

They're all insane. The golem lets his fire bitch do a lapdance, and his warriors scoop up helms full of sand, in the middle of a frakkin' fight. The golem AND the wizard think it's a good idea to go home with a necromancer. Maybe they can ask her to come with them for tea and biscuits next time. The wizard did some awesome stuff though, maybe he's less crazy. The knight pees on a burning altar, and can't fight for crap. The dwarf has disappeared, just like that. And everyone's hitting on that kid from the desert. For crying out loud, it's a KID! I should slit the throat of the knight and the wizard for that. But they're mad. They don't control themselves.

And I have to stay calm.

I'll have to be polite to that motley-minded codpiece that calls himself joyeux. Answering him obviously didn't work, and doing the exact same thing twice, expecting different results, that is insanity. And I need every bit of sanity I can keep. So I'll have to stay calm until I can nail that hedgeborn maltworm. That might be the hardest task of all. But I'll get him. God or not, I'll get him.

Alright guys, server is up. I'll begin play as soon as we get 3 people ready to go. And then catch up the last person when the time comes.

Still can't believe Haika let me do that. And better than some of the stuff forumites here would do. Think Taric.

Don't worry, I'm not going to be too crazy this session.

Be on in a bit. I don't get out of school until 2:15, and the bus takes even longer.  :-[
