(2 posts)-
[2011/09/06 11:33] Gan (gantheral.mason): okay a quick question about a rule?
[2011/09/06 11:33] TriJin (trijin.bade): It's cool. Like I said, we are willing to help. I understand the class was on a different subject...
[2011/09/06 11:33] SeaSealiah Crannock: :)
[2011/09/06 11:33] Gan (gantheral.mason): if we go afk is it allowed or not and what is expected of us if we have too?
[2011/09/06 11:34] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): you might get you pockets picked
[2011/09/06 11:34] TriJin (trijin.bade): Yup, you are allowed to be AFK
[2011/09/06 11:34] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): grins
[2011/09/06 11:34] Eilsha: lol
[2011/09/06 11:34] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): we all have RL and need to step away from the computer. we have no camping rule here
[2011/09/06 11:34] Gan (gantheral.mason): there is an off option right?
[2011/09/06 11:34] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): all we ask is that you do an OOB RP
[2011/09/06 11:34] Lorkhan Eberhart: mhm
[2011/09/06 11:34] Marcus Firegrave: yes, /9 off
[2011/09/06 11:34] Gan (gantheral.mason): ok
[2011/09/06 11:34] TriJin (trijin.bade): However, if you are AFK, noone can actually interact with you, meaning you won't get pickpocketed... else it's a Challenge Rule violation.
[2011/09/06 11:34] Eilsha stays away from Izala if she goes AFK
[2011/09/06 11:34] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): OOB means out of body
[2011/09/06 11:34] ParisWest: we came here to learn about dice rolls and now are evduring stories of unauthorized plagerisms
[2011/09/06 11:35] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it was a valid concern, and needed to be answered though I am sorry it did throw the class off subject
[2011/09/06 11:35] TriJin (trijin.bade): Back to dicerolling, I believe... much more fun to find that stuff out :)
[2011/09/06 11:35] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): smiles...indeed
[2011/09/06 11:35] Lorkhan Eberhart: Delicious icosospherical and Icosohedrical dicerolls
[2011/09/06 11:36] Nova Exploded (syvadre): Yep sorry about that
[2011/09/06 11:36] Lorkhan Eberhart: geometry with numbers painted on it <3
[2011/09/06 11:36] Marcus Firegrave: sure, hey dont you all judge me they use big words, i use small ones :P
[2011/09/06 11:36] Gan (gantheral.mason): is it random?
[2011/09/06 11:36] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I am going to be giving you some links on our websight that will help you and if you give me a chance I will explain it
[2011/09/06 11:36] Lorkhan Eberhart: sorry ;.; the 3d development nerd in me was talking
[2011/09/06 11:37] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): first is our quick help guide for differnt comands for you meter
[2011/09/06 11:37] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): http://larps.net/lc/topic/quick-help-guide
[2011/09/06 11:37] Nova Exploded (syvadre): brb
[2011/09/06 11:37] TriJin (trijin.bade): dice rolls have a hint of randomness, but they are weighted by your character traits.. such as skills, health etc.
[2011/09/06 11:37] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): we have three different modes
[2011/09/06 11:37] Eilsha: brb please
[2011/09/06 11:37] TriJin (trijin.bade): ... and targets defence
[2011/09/06 11:38] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): when one wishes to do area combat this is helpful when playing with the NPC's
[2011/09/06 11:39] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): everything your character does be it dice roll or melee does affect the stats
[2011/09/06 11:39] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the LaRPS is an AI it knows when you fly, swim, fight, interact with others
[2011/09/06 11:39] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it also measures distance you walk including TP's in the realm
[2011/09/06 11:39] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): I wonder if one can ever learn to swim
[2011/09/06 11:40] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you can use a swimmer as long as you stay above the level of the water you won't drown
[2011/09/06 11:40] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I don't remember the exact meter level to be honest
[2011/09/06 11:41] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): oh a swimming ao cool
[2011/09/06 11:41] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): to go to the melee area I would like all of you to please type the following command
[2011/09/06 11:41] TriJin (trijin.bade): 18.5 meters
[2011/09/06 11:41] Gan (gantheral.mason): so the swimmer doesn't affect the race then?
[2011/09/06 11:41] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it is /9 melee area
[2011/09/06 11:42] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): if you will look at your meter you will see the skull and cross bones around your name
[2011/09/06 11:42] TriJin (trijin.bade): Actually, that's a cool idea as a Skill.... Swimming. Hmm... I'll ponder that... Thanks for the inspiration :P
[2011/09/06 11:42] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): my pleasure
[2011/09/06 11:42] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): I was always dying in the water
[2011/09/06 11:42] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): this lets you know that you will affect an area if you try to hit things
[2011/09/06 11:42] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): to go out of this mode type /9 melee target
[2011/09/06 11:43] Edenz Smith (edenz): I have a great swimming AO I got on a pirate sim
[2011/09/06 11:43] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): this is our normal mode and to affect anything you must be sure you have their name in your target
[2011/09/06 11:43] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you can target the NPC or another player one of two ways
[2011/09/06 11:43] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): one by clicking on their target
[2011/09/06 11:43] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): press control alt and T
[2011/09/06 11:44] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you will see the invisiprim change from standing to sitting
[2011/09/06 11:44] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): just left click on their target and their name will show on your hud
[2011/09/06 11:45] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): if there are other invispriims in the way you can also type it by using /9tar (character name) so to target me would be /9 tar Leigh...if I was in character
[2011/09/06 11:45] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): if their character name starts with Lord you will have to use that
[2011/09/06 11:45] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): questions about targeting?
[2011/09/06 11:46] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): nope
[2011/09/06 11:46] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): to turn the invisiprims off just pres control alt and t again
[2011/09/06 11:46] Diemas Shinn: no thank you that may just help me a hole lot
[2011/09/06 11:46] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): now the next thing is our sceenemode
[2011/09/06 11:46] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): this is used when doing RP combat
[2011/09/06 11:46] Gan (gantheral.mason): how do we distinct us from them when targetting?
[2011/09/06 11:46] TriJin (trijin.bade): grease-paint not provided :P
[2011/09/06 11:47] Gan (gantheral.mason): sorry i mean in the menu
[2011/09/06 11:47] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): in sceenmode your health will not automatically regenerate
[2011/09/06 11:47] TriJin (trijin.bade): your target is always shown on your HUD in orange and with little arrow on your Sentinel
[2011/09/06 11:47] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you don't need to target yourself to affect your character
[2011/09/06 11:47] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): brb
[2011/09/06 11:48] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the target feature will only work for others
[2011/09/06 11:48] Lorkhan Eberhart: sorrey everyone, something has come up and i need to log out
[2011/09/06 11:48] Gan (gantheral.mason): okay I got it now
[2011/09/06 11:48] TriJin (trijin.bade): depends on the command you choose.... if you choose Self in the diceroll menu, it assumes it means you and not your target, even though you have a target in your HUD
[2011/09/06 11:49] TriJin (trijin.bade): command like HealMe will always assume your character
[2011/09/06 11:49] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): exactly
[2011/09/06 11:49] Gan (gantheral.mason): does it do that even when partied?
[2011/09/06 11:49] TriJin (trijin.bade): yes, it does
[2011/09/06 11:49] Gan (gantheral.mason): ok
[2011/09/06 11:50] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): to go into scenemode please type the command /9scenemode on
[2011/09/06 11:50] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I would like everyone to do this please
[2011/09/06 11:51] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): see the icon under your name?
[2011/09/06 11:51] Edenz Smith (edenz): yes
[2011/09/06 11:51] Pseudo Thespian: mmmhmmm
[2011/09/06 11:51] Gan (gantheral.mason): yes I see it
[2011/09/06 11:52] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): mhm
[2011/09/06 11:52] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): this does two things...one it lets others know OOCly when they walk up something is happening always a good idea to wait to see the RP line from others so you can react appropriately
[2011/09/06 11:52] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): Oh, thats a nice idea
[2011/09/06 11:52] SeaSealiah Crannock: nods
[2011/09/06 11:52] SeaSealiah Crannock: you mean do it now
[2011/09/06 11:52] Gan (gantheral.mason): cool
[2011/09/06 11:52] Pseudo Thespian giggles at Sea
[2011/09/06 11:53] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): secondly it does freeze your health from automatically regenerating and helps with keeping an idea on the amount of damage your character has received.
[2011/09/06 11:53] SeaSealiah Crannock: smiles
[2011/09/06 11:53] Gan (gantheral.mason): does scenemode freeze hunger though?
[2011/09/06 11:53] TriJin (trijin.bade): In effect, it's like a "Round Robin Role Play" marker.... for those who understand about turn based RP
[2011/09/06 11:53] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): rp conflicts can be easy to get lost in when it comes to your damage all we ask is that you keep it plausable
[2011/09/06 11:54] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): no it does not for you would grow in hunger as you use your energy...
[2011/09/06 11:55] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): now tri mentioned our challenge rule earlier...can anyone here tell me what it is?
[2011/09/06 11:55] SeaSealiah Crannock: two lines of diaglogue?
[2011/09/06 11:55] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): can that dialoge just be from one person?
[2011/09/06 11:55] SeaSealiah Crannock: i don't remember
[2011/09/06 11:55] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): smiles
[2011/09/06 11:56] Pseudo Thespian: no that defeats the purpose I think
[2011/09/06 11:56] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): correct Pseudo
[2011/09/06 11:56] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): they must respond before the sceene can continue
[2011/09/06 11:56] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): you post... your target posts and you post
[2011/09/06 11:56] Gan (gantheral.mason): so it's an A B A B A B thing?
[2011/09/06 11:57] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): correct
[2011/09/06 11:57] SeaSealiah Crannock: nod
[2011/09/06 11:57] Pseudo Thespian: all about turn taking :)
[2011/09/06 11:57] ParisWest: so...you cant just walk up behind someone and hit them?
[2011/09/06 11:57] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): or more depending on how big it gets....we call those cluster..well excuse the expression...clusterfuks
[2011/09/06 11:57] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): no you cannot Paris
[2011/09/06 11:57] ParisWest: hahaha
[2011/09/06 11:57] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the challenge rule must be used
[2011/09/06 11:57] Pseudo Thespian: You can attempt it.
[2011/09/06 11:58] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): not even attempt if the challenge rule was not used
[2011/09/06 11:58] Pseudo Thespian: ah
[2011/09/06 11:58] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): maybe post.. you are sneaking up with a big bat.... so smash their head in
[2011/09/06 11:58] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you must meet the challenge rule before you can affect another player
[2011/09/06 11:58] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): give them a chance to respond
[2011/09/06 11:58] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): correct it can be in stealth
[2011/09/06 11:58] ParisWest: so...that would be ok?
[2011/09/06 11:58] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): but the RP still meets the challenge rule
[2011/09/06 11:59] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I liken it to this...
[2011/09/06 11:59] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the actor knows something is fixing to happen just like in a movie you know something is fixing to happen but the character themselves do not
[2011/09/06 11:59] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): makes sense?
[2011/09/06 12:00] Izala Beltza sneaks up behind Pseudo planning to knock her down
[2011/09/06 12:00] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): then you respond... Pseudo
[2011/09/06 12:00] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): is everyone clear about the challenge rule?
[2011/09/06 12:00] SeaSealiah Crannock: nods
[2011/09/06 12:00] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): I think so
[2011/09/06 12:01] Gan (gantheral.mason): somewhat but the challenge rule only applies if your afk right?
[2011/09/06 12:01] Elizabeth Riley stands there in a daze waiting for her boyfriend to show up oblivious to those around her.
[2011/09/06 12:01] SeaSealiah Crannock: in a movie tho. you normally have that gives you a clue too to know hwne something is going to happen :)
[2011/09/06 12:01] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): o.o
[2011/09/06 12:01] ParisWest: lol
[2011/09/06 12:02] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): a lot of our players are comfortable with the dice and do not feel a need for a storyteller to be present....however...once a challenge rule is met...you can request for a storyteller...we are the environment in this mode
[2011/09/06 12:02] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): we are there only to facilitate the RP
[2011/09/06 12:02] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): What does that mean exactly?
[2011/09/06 12:02] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): all reactions to rolls are up to you
[2011/09/06 12:02] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it is helpful in big fights to keep the order for the RP
[2011/09/06 12:03] Gan (gantheral.mason): so none of the turns are live action based?
[2011/09/06 12:03] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it is also helpful when unsure of dice and have questions we are there to help in a conference
[2011/09/06 12:03] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): umm...lets say you and Izala get into Gan
[2011/09/06 12:03] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you are comfortable with a RP fight but not with the dice
[2011/09/06 12:04] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you call for an ST and we go to a dice room to talk OOCly
[2011/09/06 12:04] Gan (gantheral.mason): dice room as in conference IM?
[2011/09/06 12:04] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I make sure that each turn is followed. the reactions go with the outcomes of the dice and to help guide your choices for the dice
[2011/09/06 12:05] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): sorta...Tri created a LaRPS chat for us because conferences are dicey in SL
[2011/09/06 12:05] Gan (gantheral.mason): ah okay
[2011/09/06 12:05] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): so let me show you how to get there
[2011/09/06 12:06] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): click on your hud, and choose character and then mylarps
[2011/09/06 12:06] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you will be prompted to go to the web page do that
[2011/09/06 12:06] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you may be promted to log in
[2011/09/06 12:06] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): use your full avatar name
[2011/09/06 12:06] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): and the pen code
[2011/09/06 12:06] LaRPS Meter v0.25: ((Diemas Shinn's meter has been detached.))
[2011/09/06 12:06] Gan (gantheral.mason): got it
[2011/09/06 12:07] SeaSealiah Crannock: me too
[2011/09/06 12:07] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): across the top of the page you will see where it says Chat Rooms
[2011/09/06 12:07] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): select chat room 1 for me
[2011/09/06 12:07] SeaSealiah Crannock: ah so dice room 1
[2011/09/06 12:08] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): this way there is no lag on the OOC conference
[2011/09/06 12:09] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): as we have no OOC on the game floor this helps with your immersion for your RP
[2011/09/06 12:09] Grey Owl (deathly.fright) raises her hand and waits
[2011/09/06 12:09] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes grey?
[2011/09/06 12:10] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): A question about the challenge rule.. or more maybe dice rolls
[2011/09/06 12:10] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I am getting to the nity gritty of the rolls now
[2011/09/06 12:10] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): do you want to wait or ask now your choice
[2011/09/06 12:11] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): If I am going to infulence somebody to do something and I an sucessful on a target>mental>influence can the victim do a counter roll?
[2011/09/06 12:11] Gan (gantheral.mason): oooh low blow
[2011/09/06 12:12] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): no there is no counter roll because it is built in already so if you are successful....then they must follow the RP that you did with their reactions..however, they can try to fight it by doing something to you
[2011/09/06 12:12] SeaSealiah Crannock: question?
[2011/09/06 12:13] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes sea?
[2011/09/06 12:13] SeaSealiah Crannock: so if grey suceeds in influencing mentally.. that is in "conversation".. can i say... something like
[2011/09/06 12:13] SeaSealiah Crannock: feels the influence and blocks greys influence.. and roll again?
[2011/09/06 12:13] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): no
[2011/09/06 12:13] SeaSealiah Crannock: k
[2011/09/06 12:13] Elizabeth Riley: "lol"
[2011/09/06 12:13] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): that would be powergaming
[2011/09/06 12:14] Rayven Trefoil: another question
[2011/09/06 12:14] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): she got her influence..you should respect her RP and the fact that she got a successful roll
[2011/09/06 12:14] SeaSealiah Crannock: ok
[2011/09/06 12:14] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): this is where we get into a lot depends on the RP...also a possible RP limit
[2011/09/06 12:15] Gan (gantheral.mason): are any of the combat like CCS fights without dice or rp once you pull out your weapons?
[2011/09/06 12:15] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I cannot give totally black and white answers because of the fact there are just too many variables. just because she got an influence doesn't mean your a mindless dolt either...there are options just depends on your imagination and the RP
[2011/09/06 12:16] Pseudo Thespian: no thank god Gans....lol
[2011/09/06 12:16] Gan (gantheral.mason): agreed
[2011/09/06 12:16] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you can do melee fights Gan but they MUST be agreed upon by both parties. here in Legacies it is 99.9% RP...if ya wanna just slash and hack we do have NPC's that are very challenging
[2011/09/06 12:17] Gan (gantheral.mason): okay good
[2011/09/06 12:17] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it is good exercise for your character actually
[2011/09/06 12:17] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): a great way to get rid of those frustratios when ya just wanna hit something...laughs
[2011/09/06 12:17] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): lol
[2011/09/06 12:17] Gan (gantheral.mason): and run out of strenght
[2011/09/06 12:17] SeaSealiah Crannock: hands out nerf bats to everyone
[2011/09/06 12:18] Gan (gantheral.mason): strength
[2011/09/06 12:18] Diemas Shinn: no comment on the challenging npc
[2011/09/06 12:18] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes melee fighting does affect your strenth and I talk more about that in my melee class
[2011/09/06 12:18] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): just a side note... one does not have go buy weapons... the huds has it all
[2011/09/06 12:18] SeaSealiah Crannock: nods
[2011/09/06 12:19] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): our NPC's all have character sheets each have sweet spots some are affected by abilities some are not...all a challenge for you to learn ICly
[2011/09/06 12:19] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): Izala is right Tri believes that RPing shouldn't cost you an arm and a leg
[2011/09/06 12:19] Gan (gantheral.mason): what if we already have weapons from another sim that are allowed here?
[2011/09/06 12:20] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): even for period clothing we have some free that are available and lots of LM's for free clothing
[2011/09/06 12:20] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes they are
[2011/09/06 12:20] SeaSealiah Crannock: seems i fasomeone mentioned swimming earlier.. is there a swim on our huds? like i fall into the water regularly as a human... i can't really fly out
[2011/09/06 12:20] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): no there isn't but tri has been inspired by Azala
[2011/09/06 12:20] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): Izala
[2011/09/06 12:20] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): sorry darliing fingers are not cooperating
[2011/09/06 12:21] SeaSealiah Crannock: nods
[2011/09/06 12:21] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): grins
[2011/09/06 12:21] Gan (gantheral.mason): so these hud are updatable?
[2011/09/06 12:21] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): when tri does on update we send out a notice for you to come get another
[2011/09/06 12:21] Gan (gantheral.mason): ah ok
[2011/09/06 12:21] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): there is no cost at all for the LaRPS
[2011/09/06 12:22] Grey Owl (deathly.fright) has another question so she raises her had and waits to be called on
[2011/09/06 12:22] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): I just want to say... take the time to learn this hud. It is the best one out there for rping. It is truely amazing. Here it is about role playing and not meter bashing
[2011/09/06 12:22] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes grey
[2011/09/06 12:22] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): If we want to learn a skill better would it be possible for us to RP alone and do the skill rolls?
[2011/09/06 12:23] Edenz Smith (edenz): sorry guys I have to go....Wed morning here
[2011/09/06 12:23] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): actually perfect intro into where I was going
[2011/09/06 12:23] Rayven Trefoil: another question regarding the dice roll if I may?
[2011/09/06 12:23] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes Rayven?
[2011/09/06 12:23] Rayven Trefoil: Going back to gery's influence dice roll as an example. How do we decide how long the influence would last? I knew there are different levels of success would it be applicable to use these or another way?
[2011/09/06 12:24] Pseudo Thespian: :) great question
[2011/09/06 12:24] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): that is a grey area question and can be determined by the players several ways...one is to use one of the numbered dice..to say for..so many questions...or so many rounds
[2011/09/06 12:25] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I wouldn't use more than the d6
[2011/09/06 12:25] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it gives you a good chance on the number but that can be determined by the players involved
[2011/09/06 12:26] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): another way is just talk between yourselves
[2011/09/06 12:26] Rayven Trefoil: of course
[2011/09/06 12:27] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I don't want to limit your RP
[2011/09/06 12:27] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): and say it has to be such and such
[2011/09/06 12:27] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): just be respectful of your fellow players.
[2011/09/06 12:27] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): and remember text is not always nice and not everything comes out the way it looks in text..if that makes sense
[2011/09/06 12:28] Gan raises his hand
[2011/09/06 12:28] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): gan
[2011/09/06 12:29] Gan (gantheral.mason): so when typing i know spelling is important and i realize we all make typos but are we docked xp for those typos?
[2011/09/06 12:29] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): no
[2011/09/06 12:29] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): I hope not
[2011/09/06 12:29] Legacies: If we did that, Tri would be Level -2000
[2011/09/06 12:29] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): we are not gammer police...thankfullly...
[2011/09/06 12:29] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): or I would be in deep .... sh ***
[2011/09/06 12:29] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): lol
[2011/09/06 12:30] Diemas Shinn whistles
[2011/09/06 12:30] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): now I will say this....I only correct my typos when it will change the meaning of what I typed
[2011/09/06 12:30] Pseudo Thespian giggles
[2011/09/06 12:30] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): he instead of she
[2011/09/06 12:30] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): Hey all, I have to jet outta here and take my kitten to the vet, going to stay on so that I can read up on the rest of the class when I get back, if that's ok
[2011/09/06 12:30] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): for example
[2011/09/06 12:30] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): thats fine
[2011/09/06 12:31] Gan (gantheral.mason): okay thats what i wanted to find out I know someone who would like to take a look around but their spelling is not greatest
[2011/09/06 12:31] Legacies: The class transcript will be made available for reading on the Forum. Have a great day, Never -
[2011/09/06 12:31] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): now one of the things that tri has added is skills
[2011/09/06 12:31] Legacies: Nevs**
[2011/09/06 12:31] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): http://larps.net/skills_and_professions.php
[2011/09/06 12:31] NeverNevs (neverliska.klossovsky): Never or Nevs is fine, I go by both lol
[2011/09/06 12:31] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): here is our main page and more has been added to news section
[2011/09/06 12:31] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the idea of the skills is that focus of what your charcter does
[2011/09/06 12:32] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): really read the discription that goes with each of those skills
[2011/09/06 12:32] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): so lets say I wanted to enchant something
[2011/09/06 12:32] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): to use the skill I would need to focus on it
[2011/09/06 12:32] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): so would type /9use enchantment
[2011/09/06 12:33] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): when you are using a focus it will show up in your sentinal
[2011/09/06 12:33] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): once you start using a skill then it will show up on your character sheet
[2011/09/06 12:33] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the more you use it depending on the out come of your rolls will depend on how much you gain in that skill
[2011/09/06 12:34] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): misses get you more because you learn from your mistakes
[2011/09/06 12:34] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you also gain in wisdom and intellegence
[2011/09/06 12:34] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): we mean it when we say your stats chang by what you do
[2011/09/06 12:34] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): dice rolls do not need to be just for conflict
[2011/09/06 12:35] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): think about your RP and how your character would use it
[2011/09/06 12:35] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): like for instance...if you are a doctor
[2011/09/06 12:35] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): I do have a question... isnt scrying divination.. predicting the future
[2011/09/06 12:35] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes
[2011/09/06 12:35] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): if you are wanting to discover what is wrong you might focus on biology
[2011/09/06 12:36] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): or healing magically you might focus on healing
[2011/09/06 12:36] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): now that you have what your focusing on now is the fun part of chosing the dice and I am going to give you another link
[2011/09/06 12:37] Pseudo Thespian: How do you get access to skills that are not listed under your character sheet?
[2011/09/06 12:37] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you have to use them first
[2011/09/06 12:37] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): then you start learning
[2011/09/06 12:37] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): one can also be taught by one that is expert or higher
[2011/09/06 12:37] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): we are opeing up more ways in RP for you to learn but you will have to find that out ICly..winks
[2011/09/06 12:38] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): do I need to focus on the sword.. to improve my skill or will the fact that I am killing zombies with the sword to it automatically
[2011/09/06 12:38] Diemas Shinn: wow one more slap please
[2011/09/06 12:38] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I believe that goes by what you have listed under your melee
[2011/09/06 12:39] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): what Diemas?
[2011/09/06 12:39] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): smiles
[2011/09/06 12:39] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): it's whatever is listed under your melee
[2011/09/06 12:39] Diemas Shinn: doing something wrong again is all
[2011/09/06 12:39] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): I'm expert in knife now from killing things
[2011/09/06 12:39] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): thank you grey
[2011/09/06 12:39] Lyn Clawtooth: I have a question
[2011/09/06 12:39] Elizabeth Riley successfully increases their melee damage.
[2011/09/06 12:39] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I don't pay much attention to that because that is not the way my character works
[2011/09/06 12:40] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes Lyn?
[2011/09/06 12:40] Lyn Clawtooth: say your character does a lot of writing. what would be a good number of rolls. say in an hour it you are sitting there writing
[2011/09/06 12:40] Elizabeth Riley successfully equips a swift weapon.
[2011/09/06 12:41] Lyn Clawtooth: you know without just spamming your meter
[2011/09/06 12:41] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): there is a cool down time automatically built in. never a good idea to spam your rolls
[2011/09/06 12:41] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): ya exactly
[2011/09/06 12:42] Lyn Clawtooth: right now I use it one roll per report I write is that too few?
[2011/09/06 12:42] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I hate to answer it this way but what you would think is reasonable...I mean everytime the cool down is over that may be a bit excessive
[2011/09/06 12:42] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): actually that sounds good Lyn
[2011/09/06 12:42] Lyn Clawtooth: ok ty
[2011/09/06 12:42] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): because it goes with that one task
[2011/09/06 12:42] Lyn Clawtooth: that is what I was thinking but wasn't sure
[2011/09/06 12:43] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): ready for me to talk about the dice tree?
[2011/09/06 12:43] Grey Owl (deathly.fright) raises her hand ...again
[2011/09/06 12:43] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes grey
[2011/09/06 12:43] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): If you want to attempt something that is easily done by yourself.. say quilting. Can I RP that by myself and roll the dice for the skill?
[2011/09/06 12:43] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): even if nobody is within caht range?
[2011/09/06 12:43] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes that is how you grow that skill
[2011/09/06 12:43] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): Cool thanks.. was making sure
[2011/09/06 12:43] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): like Lyn with her reports
[2011/09/06 12:44] Gan (gantheral.mason): can that be applied to combat as well on the dummies/npcs?
[2011/09/06 12:44] Lyn Clawtooth: yep all alone. lol
[2011/09/06 12:44] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you can roll against them but they really will not help your character very much
[2011/09/06 12:44] Gan (gantheral.mason): ok
[2011/09/06 12:44] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): they are animals...so their intelegence is really not very high
[2011/09/06 12:45] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the LaRPS is ment to be used with other players...that is why your power grows when around others
[2011/09/06 12:45] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the more around the faster it grows
[2011/09/06 12:45] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): Well I can think of tons of stuff to try against them that makes sense.. sealth for example
[2011/09/06 12:45] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): stealth
[2011/09/06 12:45] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): **
[2011/09/06 12:45] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you can try it...may not work..but you can always try
[2011/09/06 12:45] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): k
[2011/09/06 12:46] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): One more question about skills actually
[2011/09/06 12:46] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): sorry
[2011/09/06 12:46] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): ok ready for me to move on? I feel awful that I have already kept you here this long
[2011/09/06 12:46] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): go ahead Grey
[2011/09/06 12:46] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): difference pbetween the skill levels
[2011/09/06 12:46] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): Expert vs Apperntice for example
[2011/09/06 12:46] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you mean the numbers
[2011/09/06 12:46] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): no RP wise
[2011/09/06 12:47] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): apprentice is one that is just learning
[2011/09/06 12:47] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): I understand you aren't as agood RPwise.. but how does it effect rolls
[2011/09/06 12:47] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): skilled your pretty good at it
[2011/09/06 12:47] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): expert you are just that an expert
[2011/09/06 12:47] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): legendary you really know it well like the back of your hand
[2011/09/06 12:48] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it does help with your rolls for the better you are at it the easier it is but...they may have a high resistance as well
[2011/09/06 12:48] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): ok
[2011/09/06 12:48] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the dice are the ultamate equalizer levels don't matter
[2011/09/06 12:48] Grey Owl (deathly.fright): I hadd one more question but I'll ask after so I don't keep people
[2011/09/06 12:48] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): there are no gods here in Legacies all are defeatable
[2011/09/06 12:49] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): ok our tree of rolls, you will find if you follow this thought process it is easier to determine what your roll should be
[2011/09/06 12:50] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): first. is what are you wanting to affect...the focus....is it a target..someone else...yourself....or the environment
[2011/09/06 12:50] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): if it another then be sure you have them targeted
[2011/09/06 12:50] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): sometimes we forget and do the roll...most will if asked nicely if you can reroll
[2011/09/06 12:51] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): but..it can be considered a miss if they were not targeted
[2011/09/06 12:51] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): even with a successful roll because no one was focused on
[2011/09/06 12:51] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): make sense?
[2011/09/06 12:51] SeaSealiah Crannock: nods
[2011/09/06 12:52] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): ok next is how are you going to affect things....
[2011/09/06 12:52] Lyn Clawtooth: yep
[2011/09/06 12:52] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): that method behind your action.
[2011/09/06 12:52] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): are you going to do it physically, mentally, or magically.....magic is that supernatural things
[2011/09/06 12:53] Pseudo Thespian: raises hand
[2011/09/06 12:53] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yes Pseudo
[2011/09/06 12:54] Pseudo Thespian: sorry but I use magical when using extrodinary mind influencing stuff...like glamour. Is that proper or should my character stick to mental abilities?
[2011/09/06 12:54] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): actually it is supernatural
[2011/09/06 12:54] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): so your fine
[2011/09/06 12:54] Pseudo Thespian: cool..thanks
[2011/09/06 12:55] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): the last is the actual action
[2011/09/06 12:55] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): now this I am gonna just copy and paste
[2011/09/06 12:55] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): Harm- To negatively affect health, life or strength.
Assist- To positively affect health, life or strength.
Discovery- To obtain information or knowledge.
Grapple- To grasp or hold without affecting health, life or strength.
Influence- To affect mental state, hypnosis, physic or state of mind.
Presence- To affect the target's presence. Teleporting, body deformations, other physical affects that has no harm, heal or change of mental.
[2011/09/06 12:56] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I think the two most have difficulty with is grapple and presence
[2011/09/06 12:56] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): grapple would be to hold in place...keep it where it is
[2011/09/06 12:56] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): presence is to change..shape, location etc
[2011/09/06 12:56] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): any questions about this?
[2011/09/06 12:56] Gan (gantheral.mason): is that different for every race?
[2011/09/06 12:57] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): nope
[2011/09/06 12:57] Gan (gantheral.mason): hm
[2011/09/06 12:57] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it all depends on your RP
[2011/09/06 12:57] Gan (gantheral.mason): okay theres a reason but i'll tell you after class
[2011/09/06 12:57] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): a human can certainly reach out to pull another to them
[2011/09/06 12:57] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): so it would be target, physical, presence
[2011/09/06 12:57] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): but say I want to do it magically
[2011/09/06 12:58] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): target, magic, presence
[2011/09/06 12:58] Gan (gantheral.mason): ah okay that makes since magical assist would heal wouldn't it?
[2011/09/06 12:58] Gan (gantheral.mason): sense i mean
[2011/09/06 12:58] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it can it depends on how you are assisting
[2011/09/06 12:59] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I mean you can assist in a fight with a block of a blow if there were say more than 2 in a fight
[2011/09/06 12:59] Gan (gantheral.mason): oh so if someone is injured assist would be good to use to heal them magically then?
[2011/09/06 12:59] Gan (gantheral.mason): wouldn't
[2011/09/06 12:59] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it could be done
[2011/09/06 13:00] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): there are many ways
[2011/09/06 13:00] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): you could also just use healthem
[2011/09/06 13:00] Gan (gantheral.mason): okay I get it now
[2011/09/06 13:00] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): or physically. If you are a doctor that doesnt use magic
[2011/09/06 13:00] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): then they would roll a d10 to see how much of a percentage they got healed
[2011/09/06 13:00] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): all of it depends on your RP...and theirs
[2011/09/06 13:01] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): just because I wave my magic wand to heal a person doesn't mean they are 100% healed either
[2011/09/06 13:01] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): they may want to RP out their injuries longer
[2011/09/06 13:01] Pseudo Thespian: drama queens like me do....lol
[2011/09/06 13:01] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): they can accept a portion but this is where respect of their RP comes in
[2011/09/06 13:01] Diemas Shinn: you never
[2011/09/06 13:01] Pseudo Thespian: :P
[2011/09/06 13:02] Pseudo Thespian: at least I admit it!
[2011/09/06 13:02] Pseudo Thespian: LOL
[2011/09/06 13:02] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): ok ready to talk about outcomes?
[2011/09/06 13:02] Pseudo Thespian: sorry
[2011/09/06 13:02] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): no need
[2011/09/06 13:02] Diemas Shinn: here muhahahaha
[2011/09/06 13:02] Gan (gantheral.mason): ah yes everything comes with a price
[2011/09/06 13:03] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): these are the results you may see with your dice
[2011/09/06 13:03] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): Stellar Success- Almost perfect, better than expected.
Success- A normal success.
Bare Success- It was 50/50, this is borderline success.
Miss- Was unable to hit the target, Could be out of range, out of power....
Critical Miss- Missed the target and possibility of self damage (gun backfired).
[2011/09/06 13:04] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): depending on the results will depend on your reaction to the RP
[2011/09/06 13:04] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): please help your fellow players and never assume your intent is there give them details of your attempt
[2011/09/06 13:04] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): if I just say I stab you and get a successful roll
[2011/09/06 13:04] Diemas Shinn: or a trip and fall on a pile of poo
[2011/09/06 13:04] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): then you could say yep she stabbed me but in the hand
[2011/09/06 13:05] Gan (gantheral.mason): okay I have a question about a gun but I'll ask after class in a IM?
[2011/09/06 13:05] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): all RP must be attempts....the reaction is then done by the other person...
[2011/09/06 13:05] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): based on the rolls
[2011/09/06 13:05] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): except one
[2011/09/06 13:05] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): which one is it?
[2011/09/06 13:06] Gan (gantheral.mason): Miss?
[2011/09/06 13:06] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): nope but your warmer
[2011/09/06 13:06] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): a miss they will tell you how they avoided your attempt
[2011/09/06 13:07] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it is the critical miss....the reason for this is because it is a back fire
[2011/09/06 13:07] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): critical failure
[2011/09/06 13:07] Diemas Shinn: crd mis
[2011/09/06 13:07] SeaSealiah Crannock: nods
[2011/09/06 13:07] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it didn't touch them it came back on you
[2011/09/06 13:07] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): and no one can react for you
[2011/09/06 13:07] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): so in case of a critical wait for them to tell you how it backfired so you can do the appropriate reaction
[2011/09/06 13:08] Gan (gantheral.mason): like a gun backfiring then
[2011/09/06 13:08] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): yep
[2011/09/06 13:08] Lyn Clawtooth: or a spell
[2011/09/06 13:08] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): or if someone reaches out mentally...and you critically miss.
[2011/09/06 13:08] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): rubbs temples...and damnit if those don't hurt..laughs
[2011/09/06 13:08] Izala Beltza (nimue.macbeth): you get a migraine
[2011/09/06 13:09] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): had a player once try to listen in on a conversation she got a critical
[2011/09/06 13:09] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I think it was one of the funniest RP's I have had here
[2011/09/06 13:09] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): she RPd having ringing in the ears and couldn't hear
[2011/09/06 13:09] SeaSealiah Crannock: smiles
[2011/09/06 13:09] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I rpd that the cafe was on fire and she took it that my character asked if she was for hire
[2011/09/06 13:09] Diemas Shinn: did you tell her to stop yelling at lest
[2011/09/06 13:10] Pseudo Thespian: hahaha
[2011/09/06 13:10] SeaSealiah Crannock: heeh
[2011/09/06 13:10] Lyn Clawtooth: lol
[2011/09/06 13:10] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): tried that too..laughs..so criticals can be fun if you use your imagination
[2011/09/06 13:10] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): remember we are all here for one thing......the fun of the game
[2011/09/06 13:11] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): ICly my character may want to rip your throat out but OOCly...I will help you all I can
[2011/09/06 13:11] Diemas Shinn: oob*
[2011/09/06 13:12] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): our "find out ICly" mantra is there for a reason. to help you keep your OOC and IC seperate...like in the hub this is pure OOC you don't have to come to class with the in character clothing
[2011/09/06 13:12] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): same for OOC chat if you can get it to work
[2011/09/06 13:12] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): that is were we grumble about dice...technical questions about the system
[2011/09/06 13:13] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): but ask something your character needs to learn then you will here "find out ICly"
[2011/09/06 13:13] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): hear*
[2011/09/06 13:13] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): any other questions?
[2011/09/06 13:13] Gan (gantheral.mason): 1873 Winchester Rifle usable or not?
[2011/09/06 13:13] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it is available before 1891 and plausable...but remember was it only availble in america
[2011/09/06 13:14] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): if it was did your character come from america
[2011/09/06 13:14] SeaSealiah Crannock: ah good point
[2011/09/06 13:14] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): this is 1891 london
[2011/09/06 13:14] Gan (gantheral.mason): ah true
[2011/09/06 13:14] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): just because it was available in america doesn't mean it is availble in London
[2011/09/06 13:14] Gan (gantheral.mason): an import?
[2011/09/06 13:14] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): like the drink...coke a cola
[2011/09/06 13:14] SeaSealiah Crannock: or maybe you bought it from a visitor frm america?
[2011/09/06 13:14] SeaSealiah Crannock: or stole it
[2011/09/06 13:14] ParisWest: it seems possible
[2011/09/06 13:15] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): as long as there is plausability
[2011/09/06 13:15] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): and not streached so far the fabric is about to rip
[2011/09/06 13:15] SeaSealiah Crannock: i've been looking for an irish whiskey or scotch made before 1891..
[2011/09/06 13:15] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): I call that powergaming when you push the line that far
[2011/09/06 13:16] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): it isn't exactly against the rules but if you do powergaming you will soon find yourself playing alone and we believe Legacies is a community all here for the enjoyment of the game
[2011/09/06 13:17] Leigh Luv (leigh.huet): make sense? any questions?
