Difficulty to pick the cuffs? Sounds like Anjali's providing an assist, perhaps by looking and telling AAA where the keyhole is.

It is a 4 purple check for athletics or coordination. If you want to do the same with skullduggery that will be fine.

[swrider]

Yikes. Hell could also provide an assist (He has YGG in skulduggery so it might be skilled assist) once he is woken up that is assuming Trip allows someone to wake him up as opposed to resting for a half an hour.

[Trip]

Someone can wake him up. Roll an easy medicine check and use the advantage to have him recover strain.

[swrider]

Did you want me to roll or the person who decides to wake him up?

I was thinking that they would. But if you want to try another Cool\Discipline simple check, that would work too. I think we need to move the story along.

[swrider]

I added a boost from the two advantages generated on my previous check... It resulted in 0 successes and 4 advantages. I guess I pass two boost to whoever tries the medicine check. My Roller Hates ME!

Spoiler:

Hell; Alpha Squad; Wake UP:
0 Success, 2 Advantages




Hell; Alpha Squad; Wake UP boost:
0 Success, 2 Advantages

It was a simple check so you didn't need the purple. But I guess it won't help you to take it way.

[swrider]

Yeah It is the exact same roll I got the first time. Oh well. The force just wants Hell to be unconscious.

[swrider]

Savagebob Hell will provide skilled assistance. You can upgrade one of your dice with his help. so it will be YGGG plus the boost from the other assistant.

[Trip]

Did you like the Chinese Water torturer idea?

[swrider]

Did you like the Chinese Water torturer idea?

I did. thanks for the mercy. I will try to help get things moving after bob's check I'll ask him to unlock hell and they can each take someone else.

Trip, you sure about Difficulty (PPPP) for the cuffs? The Difficulty table in the CRB says 4 Purple is for "an exceptionally sophisticated lock." Generally, binders should be easier to pick than to break out of by sheer brute strength or coordination. That said, perhaps these are very high-end binders (in which case we're keeping them!)

Where is the difficulty table?

Where is the difficulty table?

See p. 25 of F&D core. The same table is in EOTE and AOR, as well. Lockpicking is one of the standard examples they use to distinguish difficulty levels. (And, again, these might be really expensive, high-end cuffs, which would warrant the PPPP difficulty.)

[Trip]

I will go with a standard pair of binders. But since they are binders, the lock would be complicated enough to warrant a hard difficulty. But you are right, Sixxkiller wouldn't be using fancy high end cuffs for this job.

[Trip]

Everyone do an easy perception check. If you are free add a boost. If you have a light, add a boost. If you are in a chair still, add a setback.

[SavageBob]

AAA; Alpha Squad; Perception check:
1 Success, 2 Advantages, 1 Triumph,



Did I get Strain back for the Advantage on the lock picking check? If not, these 2 Advantage might be used for that. (And there are 2 other uncanceled Advantage from that check that haven't been used yet.) Not sure on the Triumph, since I don't know what we're perceiving.

We can make the strain a wash. Nice roll. I don't need anymore perception checks. This one should cover it.

[swrider]

Helios; Alpha Squad; Perception Check:
0 Success, 3 Advantages



@ Trip. I once asked you if you minded me using my roller because I have the ability to edit the rolls and the roller itself. If I hadn't seen the source code for it I would swear it was programmed to hate me.

That is funny stuff right there.

[Trip]

If it is ok with you, I am going to use the Triumph to give you a key to the binders. The PCs don't know what the key is for yet. But they should be able to figure it out.

[swrider]

Any Chance I can use the advantages to recover strain?

I'm in favor of that use, but ultimately it is up to the person who rolled the Triumph in my opinion. TAKE IT!

[Trip]

It also works with the story. You were only meant to be detained.

[Trip]

Any Chance I can use the advantages to recover strain?

Yes. That works for me.

[SavageBob]

Triumph = "Hey, there's the key!" Perfect.

I have 6 unaccounted for Advantage to spend from these two checks. OK to take 4 Strain recover and pass on a boost to someone as I noted in the IC?
