Hey, if Professor Lorhalien drops Calamity, does his Bond goes away before I take the damage? It's gonna be close (it's unclear just exactly when we bloodied Calamity), but I think her highest-damage attack might be enough, especially with the boost from the Punishing Eye.

Then again, does the Eye go away if/when I get knocked unconscious?

A power will specify if it ends when you go unconscious/die, so the eye is a set it and forget it thing.

Re-read the wording on the Calamity bond power and it triggers off being hit by an attack power, so it would be resolved before the damage was applied and killed the thing.

Jasper's chance of getting through this still standing on his feet is for the Professor to delay after it and for the Calamity to hopefully not smack Jasper around.

I mean let's be real if Calamity attacks Jasper he's dropping below zero unless the Professor gets over to Jasper and passes a DC10 heal check so Jasper can Second Wind immediately but not get the defense bonus. Which will then cause Calamity to reapply the thing to Jasper anyway so whatever it's only negative bloodied that matters for actually dying.

Jasper already second winded :v:.

Which knocks Jasper unconscious anyway because you'll be making a melee basic attack against the Calamity as part of that power haha.

It's really not a big deal anyway, oh no Jasper fell unconscious in the last 6 seconds of the fight! Whatever will we do? :v:

The likelihood of me hitting is like 40%- I still have -5 to all my attacks. so I need to hit on a 13 or above.

I concur. Staying conscious is nice, but as long as you guys finish the battle ASAP, it's not the end of the world if I'm sleeping it off.

Recharge Power (Minor Action):

This being treated as an encounter power? Or is it an actual recharge power where we roll a d6 at the end of each turn to see if it comes back online? If the latter we need the recharge number :v:.

I couldn't find the term for it in the compendium, but there's a type of item action that is treated as a daily power, but can be refreshed by spending surges and I don't think is technically a Daily power for the purposes of things that care about that.

I think it's Surge? like three items baseline use it so it's pretty uncommon.

If anyone cares I have the (somewhat goofier) original tabloid that this is cropped from, which is a prop I made for a LARP a couple years ago and culled a lot of ideas for this game from.

Alas for the ham lovers of the world, we lost a good one. :v:

e: I'd say I've been busy lately, but really I sprained my ankle a couple of weeks back and lazing in bed while it reaches a walkable level of pain has basically leeched me of the effort for good posting haha. I'm back at like 80% so I'll try and keep the posts coming in quick succession now.

I've had a stressful week, sorry for the delay. There's a couple ways you could go from here but it seems like the consensus is investigating the Nails? I'm having Lady Octavia overhear to provide an easy next hook for that route, but if anyone would rather go after the Arena connection or the Black family connection instead, that is also an option.
