[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Dragonstrike]

@Iron
Nah. I can pop it frequently enough to roll dice. Nothing dramatic in the text though.
Also any chance of picking up spare Pokeballs for cash? From a writing perspective, adding an entirely spaced out Slowpoke to the team has so much potential for hilarity that as a player I want to do it on principle.

Rounds out your type triangle too.  Maybe Nathan might lend you some pokeballs again if you ask nicely?

@PhantomUnderYourDesk.

Might want to reread what I typed there. Make sure you've got it all noted down correctly.

[Iron]

Yeah I completely forgot about adding Survival on initiative. But I forgot for both protagonists and antagonists. However, initiative is a flat bonus to a single d6 roll - it's the only roll that isn't a dice pool. Kinda strange.

You can buy Pokeballs from the RV for no reason, just because I don't want their availability to be too much of a limiting factor.

Growth doesn't have the sunlight clause in this game. I might add it for particularly bright sunlight but not everyday sunny days.

I got to get Larry to socialize with the group more so that he get to do what I'm wanting him to. Larry is more of the guy whose just there for the gyms and what not and I didn't want that in the begging. Now Larry should be a little more social after the fight he is doing

@Iron and @Dragonstrike, I looked into the mechanic of Growth before even thinking about a Training Session. If I didn't accidently got something wrong and if I apapted Iron's changes for this Game Session correctly, Growth should raise the Strenght by 2 on default. Here's why I came to this conclusion:
 
Corebook says: Growth raises Strenght and Special both by 1 point.
GM Iron says: Replace Special with Character's Strenght if needed.
--> Strenght gets raised by 2 Points in the current battle. My Chara's Stenght is 1 by default, so it now will be 3.

Growth's accuracy would be Character's Strenght (1 Point) + Character's Survival (1 Point) + Nature (but Natures do not exist in this Session, so it's 0) = 2 dice.

Of course, last word on this has Iron.


So, Initative would be whatever one D6 dice rolls + Character's Dexerity + Character's Survival. If that's correct, then I got that. Thanks both of you for the quick help! Appreciated.

Totally fine! Just keep in mind that Shiva doesn't like you much. Cottonee might even avoid you, which is your very own fault~

I forgot about that little aspect about Larry relationships with characters: no one seems to like him much. Ventus and Vincent don't think too highly of him after the Ekan Nest incident, even though he redeemed himself by handling the Mankey, and Shiva doesn't like him for messing with Cottenee and invading her personal space. Nathan is only one that does not thing too negatively of him, and even he has doubts on his ability at times.

Given Ventus recent Pariah status, though, you might have an easier time making in roads with the two other guys. Ventus and Shiva seem to have a good report going on, so interacting with them might be more difficult than not.

And Nathan just doesn't get why he's there.  At all.  He's heard the stories about the kid, but hasn't seen any proof so far that he's actually as good as they say he is.  Whenever Larry shows up, it's usually a quick in and out, doing whatever the heck he wants in the process, too.  Nathan just doesn't get it.  And a talking Zorua is very unbelievable on top of that.  He doesn't really dislike him per se, but he's got almost no trust for him as of right now.

[Lord Windos]

Even less trust then Ventus? *Raises his eyebrows in slight disbelief* That's quite an achievement...

Oh, that's just because Nathan hasn't yet figured out what Ventus's real intentions were in that argument.  He's gonna be asking about those, you can bet on that.  That little spat has made Ralts way too nervous about being around Ventus.
