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

[Iron]

That is true. I'll add it to this next post.

And I don't think I had difficulty interpreting your orders. Just forgot that there was one more action left since my NPC only used 2 and you used 3.

That reminds me of a rule update I wanted to run past you guys:

I'd like to limit actions to no more than 4 move actions in a single round. I already eliminated the rule that says no using the same move twice, which would previously have kept the spam at a reasonable level. I worry it'll be hard to keep track beyond four, and be repetitive, and make pausing too delayed. Beyond four, you can still do evasions or tricksy actions like send a text message from the back of your Tauros, if you have dice left. I think this change benefits the party at least as much as it does NPCs.

There's a limit already in the core book's base rules to 5 actions per round.  Probably partially because of the multi-action moves being usable 2-5 times.

@Iron : On phone right now , so just continue Michael fight Gyarados until one or the other is KOed . Sorry about this!

Ah! I'll stick to that then. I just wanted a line to be drawn somewhere.

Windos, no problem!! It's not like Michael has a whole lot of moves in his repertoire.

I'm still there. I also have nothing against limiting multiple actions to 4 per Round, actually... I'd love to see a scene where multiple actions are needed outside of battle, like mentioned sending a text from the back of a Tauros. ^^

Xiani, just like the Skald with the elusive name, seems to be one of these strong, determined and somewhat nevertheless graceful female characters. Or in short, someone Shiva looks up to.

Would Ventus be able to recognize League Officials on sight and from a distance ? My character has problems with a authority , so avoiding them would be for best ...

[Iron]

It's Dragonstrike's encounter, so no, not until he brings her to the group.

But you won't enjoy the Running, which is going to be swarming with authorities. Maybe it's time for Ventus to face this issue.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Maybe he should also avoid the place I currently reside, because if he'd see that Shiva is on something that looks like a small flower field... I don't want him to freak out. :C

No avoiding this one, mate.  She's coming with us aaaaalllll the way to Ginger Town since it's helping Nathan stay just a little calmer.
