OK, with three players ready to go, I'm updating the OP to include all the rules for everyone to see. This also makes it easier for people to see alterations, and where they are.

Narric's Dungeon Crawler RP
You are a trio of adventurers that have all mysteriously discovered this dungeon together. Believing there to be limitless treasure within, you begin descending into the unknown depths.
What treasures will you uncover? What monsters shall you defeat? What acts of morality will suit your preference? Maybe it is time to find out the answers to these questions.

Spoiler
- The Map is grid-based.
- Multiple Players may not occupy the same grid space, and you may not occupy a grid space with a hostile or friendly NPC.
- Each Player may move up to two spaces. You can move diagonally, but not through walls (unless a suitably size hole has been made).
- Only post once in between each DM posts. This effectively makes it a turn based RP, with no set order of play.
- All rolls must be made on "Invisible Castle," and be linked at the start of the post.
- You may attempt multiple actions per post (Like searching, opening doors, readying weapons), but you only have D4+1 Attacks/Spells per turn.

Characters
Spoiler
Each Player has control over a single Character. Each character has six Stats, showing their ability in given fields. These are as follows:
• Strength (Str)
• Dexterity (Dex)
• Constitution (Con)
• Intelligence (Int)
• Wisdom (Wis)
• Charisma (Cha)
To generate the value of each Stat, roll 4 D6, and add the three highest scores. Do these six times, and assign one score to each Stat.
Some stats define other characteristics, described below:
• HP = Constitution x 2
• Attacks = D4+1, rolled every time you attack, once per turn.
• Strike! = Your Strength, rounded down to an appropriate dice. The whole number difference becomes the modifier.
E.g. Str: 14, would mean the characters' Strike! would be D6+1.
Str: 15 would be the same due to rounding down, but Str: 16 would result in D8 for Strike!
• DAM = Your Strength halved, and rounded down to an Appropriate dice. The difference becomes the modifier. If this is higher than the DAM of the Weapon you are using, you use this Roll. Ranged Weapons and Magic Attacks are unaffected.
• Def = 15 (for lvl 1 starting characters, regardless of class). It is assumed the character has suitable armour, wards or skill required to prevent enemies from harming them. The exact nature of this unspecified equipment is left up the Player of the character.
Saves
- Your Character has a save (and so do some enemeies). For Player Characters, this is equal to their Constitution halved (rounding up), you must roll under this on 2D8.
- Defensive equipment raises the score you must roll under, making a Save easier.
- Hostile NPCs have predetermined Saves.

I'm mostly seeing if anyone is interested. I'm writing up descriptions of all the rooms before starting.
I can send you all the info for character making. Hopefully it isn't too restrictive. I just don't want to have to deal with too much complexicty :P

We'll see how fun this is :P
This is an untested RP ruleset. I genuinely don't know if it will be fun. XD
Sent you the info you'll need.
I'm off to bed, and have an early shift tomorrow, so I won't be able to reply until the afternoon tomorrow. It'll be interesting to see who joins in the final slot :P

Stat rolls: 14, 16, 12, 8, 12, 13 (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4157757/)
Strength (Str): 12
Dexterity (Dex): 16
Constitution (Con): 8
Intelligence (Int): 14
Wisdom (Wis): 13
Charisma (Cha): 12
HP: 16
Equipment:
2x daggers, crossbow, lockpicks
Appearance: 5'8", doesn't rely on strength as much as speed, so she's toned but not hugely muscly. Long red hair tied into a single braided ponytail. She wear charcoal grey dyed leather armour. She has a couple of scars, mostly in hard to notice areas. In short, she's practically identical in appearance to Kahlan from Enter, The Darkness (armour aside). I'm lazy like that.
Bio: She joined the group to find treasure. Simple as that. She's a career thief that find robbing dungeons to be a better idea than robbing people, since people tend to hold a grudge. That said, she'll steal anything if she thinks it's worth the risk. Despite her fairly easygoing attitude she doesn't actually talk about herself much, so that is all you know.

A man in his early 30s, Ozkar is tall and dark haired. Far from powerfully built he seems almost fragile, however as many unfortunate muggers have learned, he is protected by powerful wards and talismans and has the earth itself at his command. Many a time has he been backed into a corner when his would be robbers have found themselves assualted from behind by a gigantic golem formed from the rocks around them.
While he is a civilised man, any form of threat is met with the harshest possible retaliation and he takes a secret pleasure in being allowed to cut loose from time to time.

RC has info from me, which is Jayne or Mabbz sent him their stuff, would mean he has his starting equipment and ability info.
The "Rulebook" and "Player Map" have been uploaded, and are viewable here:
Rulebook - http://sta.sh/0245go3oqfzo
Map - http://sta.sh/0gnjw22w7u0
Don't download them, as I will update them as we play, and new things are uncovered. The rules are pretty much clay right now, so if there is anything that seems long winded/badly written/stupid, don't hesitate to say anything.
Only I know where the treasure is, as I have the full map.
One thing I will say, is that I do have a couple chests doted around, which are player specific :P They will be in a group, so only go to YOUR chest. They are locked by Destiny, not some physical chunk of metal (looking at you Mabbz ;))

God my rolls were terrible... (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4157980/)
STR: 12
DEX: 12
CON: 13
INT: 9
WIS: 5
CHA: 3 (Apparently rolled 4 1s!)
For god's sake, I have worse physical stats than the mage! And those are my best stats!
This is where I decide my policy of always take the first roll regardless starts to fall apart...
HP: 26
Save: 7(9)
Equipment:
Short Sword (DAM D6), Medium Shield (Save +2)
Greg is a Thug. A Henchman. Hired muscle is the only thing he's good at, and he's not even very good at that. What Ozkar was thinking of hiring him, I have no idea, except as something to use as a bridge for the inevitable pit of spikes. He's fairly tall and reasonably bulky, but otherwise is a second rate physical specimen. As for mental... He has a decent memory for directions, and a good eye for combat situations, but don't expect anything special if you ask him what 2+2 is. In fact, don't expect anything - he's mute. (Yay, save for bad charisma!)

I might suggest that you use the D&D rule here and if you roll less that an 8 for a stat, re roll it. Otherwise you will be more hinderance than help I think.

Heh. I think I shall do that :P
Here, have two 10s. (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4158067/)
Not great, but I shall see what I can do with them...
STR: 12
DEX: 12
CON: 13
INT:9 10
WIS:5 10

I'm thinking I'll copy and paste all the Rules into the OP. The Map will be refreshed there also.
Seems I can't edit files once they're in St.ash. :P
I'll get the first RP post up when I can. My GF is determined to have short hair, and its all steam ahead now :P If I'm lucky, it will be the next thing I do.

Shall we try 2D8 (you roll this), and then I'll tell you if you find anything ;)
Readying weapons requires no roll, but I need to think of something for opening doors that could potentially be trapped. 2D8 against your Dex?

Quote from: Narric on August 02, 2013, 03:15:00 PMAre you implying that I would take loot that was clearly designed for one of my comrades? How dare you suggest such a thing
One thing I will say, is that I do have a couple chests doted around, which are player specific :P They will be in a group, so only go to YOUR chest. They are locked by Destiny, not some physical chunk of metal (looking at you Mabbz ;))
Quote from: Narric on August 01, 2013, 11:16:44 PMI'm not really sure what this means. How does rounding 14 down make d6+1?
• Strike! = Your Strength, rounded down to an appropriate dice. The whole number difference becomes the modifier.
E.g. Str: 14, would mean the characters' Strike! would be D6+1.
Str: 15 would be the same due to rounding down, but Str: 16 would result in D8 for Strike!
• DAM = Your Strength halved, and rounded down to an Appropriate dice. The difference becomes the modifier. If this is higher than the DAM of the Weapon you are using, you use this Roll. Ranged Weapons and Magic Attacks are unaffected.
Also, is there a benefit for dual wielding daggers?

OH wow, I fucked up my math there didn't I? XD
Uhm, yeah Str14 = D12+2 or Strike! :shifty:
I hadn't considered dual-weilding. Double daggers was in case one was knocked out your hand.
Would a re-roll for strike! seem fair? I will be stating enemy Def before your posts, so you will know if your attacks have worked.

So you guys know, I will never write a hostile NPC to cause damage to you without you having a chance to attack first. They'll give you an intimidating threat, as you can see, but they won't be ID'ing you anytime in future ;)
And make sure you read the Roll Box :P

Probably D12+4, as I don't think there is a usual D16. Which is better, by the way as the range is 5-16 instead of 1-16.

Standard dice are d4 d6 d10 d12 and d20. Round down and add a modifier for the excess.
Although for somethings it might be wiser to use 2 of a lower dice in order to get more consistent results. 2d6 instead of d12 for example. Low rolls will still happen, but critical failures and successes are less likely, while average performance is kept up, as should be expected for a team of seasoned adventurers. Your +2 bonus will simply show that you are in excellent condition, or very skilled so your average will be higher.

Horray for having seasoned players in this RP :P
Yeah, d12 difference to stat was intended, sorry for lack of clarity ^_^;;
If you want to roll multiple dice, like 2d6, go ahead, but I must ask you be consistant, and stick with only one type of roll. Less chance of me getting confused :P
Having said that, it seems IC actually has algorithms in place for unique dice:
- d16 (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4159341/)
- d5 (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4159342/)
- d19 (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4159343/)

I will be rolling 2d6 for strength and 1d6 for damage rolls then. Assuming no modifiers that is. My wisdom rolls and intelligence will be 2d6+2.
Although im not sure why we don't just roll everything against a set dice and aim for lower.
I think im just confusing myself now though :P

Lets see if I can explain my thinking :P
Lets do Strike! as thats going to be the most common.
Enemies as you know have a set Def, which is how well they can defend themselves. You rolling above it shows that you have bypassed their lesser abilities. A Melee attack is successful through brute power (Str), Range is successful through precise control of your aim (Dex), and Magic is successful through understanding the spell under presure (Wis).
Range and Magic also so of have to hit a potentially moving target. Maybe that is something to consider further down into this dungeon :P ;)
Does that make sense?

So yeah, 2d6 for Strike and 1d6 for Melee damage.
Oh, how many attacks does Salvo of Stones use up? Or can I literally just keep casting it for free?

Magic of any kind take up one Attack/Spell "counter." You get d4+1 of these per post.
I did say in the section on Magic :P
Currently only the "Rock Servant" spell needs more than a single counter (four, becuase c'mon, you're creating a Golem on the fly :P), but as you haven't LVL'd up yet, I haven't had to think of any new spells.

It's a little difficult to write my actions without knowing the HP of our enemies. I can understand wanting to keep it secret to make it more interesting, but I'd rather not waste actions if I can help it.

Ok, you're gonna have to tell me if that worked or not because I got very confused due to lack of sleep, which I now intend to remedy.
Also, can Detente gain EXP? I was planning of playing his as the same "mind" each time just in regenerated bodies. I don't mind maybe sharing a small amount of my EXP with him to make him more powerful over time. Or unlock different kinds of attack.

Your average summon doesn't usually gain its own experience, although having a member of the party we can effectively resurrect at a moment's noticed will be handy.

There should probably be a time limit on how long I can have Detente summoned. Otherwise I can just keep him around all the time. Maybe he could level as I do. Represents me gaining more control and finesse over the golem and using him more effectively. Otherwise he may get outclassed by later abilities and then I can't use him as a character.

Quote from: Mabbz on August 07, 2013, 08:58:51 AMI'll include that info in later posts, definately. Giant Spiders have only 1HP (effectively Minions a-la D&D) and Driders have 5HP. They're essentially just dungeon fodder. You will face higher HP'd enemies once you get to them (not to mention the HP of the Dungeon Boss)

I haven't gotten to the RP thread, so if you want to adjust your post, that is fine with me. I won't tell anyone ;)

Quote from: Railgun Convention on August 07, 2013, 09:53:54 AMI hadn't thought of that mechanic, but RC makes a good point. How about you gain the Exp he would've gained, had he been a Party member. Sound fair?

Quote from: The Man They Call Jayne on August 07, 2013, 10:11:13 AMI'm open to suggestions on how the Golem could Level up :P Maybe being able to summon stronger varients? specialised Varients? I was hoping he would only stick around until destroyed, and hope you dn't roll 4 Attacks/Spells too soon :P Maybe I should make it so you have to roll the spell every five of your posts, just to maintain him? Not sure if "Maintaining" him would/should heal him also. I'll let you guys discuss that.

Considering the new info regarding monster HP, you can re-write your posts if needed. Just make sure to reply here if you do/don't. ;)

I was thinking that I should make some kind of Will power check every turn he is not in combat. In combat of course I am totally focussed on him being there, so it isn't hard to maintain, but out side of it, I would need to specifically focus on the task to maintain him.
Roll a d20 against my wisdom each turn outside of combat. Add a -1 modifier to the roll each turn out of combat.
I would be happy to simply have DT level up with me and give me a single point per level to spend on him. Either a stat boosted with a +1 modifier or maybe a new form of attack. Or something like that. That way he becomes a personalised thing. He could strike harder or tank like crazy.

OK, that combat was too easy for you. I'm not sure if my monsters are too weak, or you're too strong, or the way the rules and play makes it go to your favour, but thats it, from now on, you're facing the enemies that are second to the Boss because they're at least a little tougher. :P
I'm gonna have to make so tougher versions as well, just to keep you on your toes ;)
So to re-cap. Giant Rats, Giant Spiders, and Lurkers are out. Drider Guards, and whatever I can think up that would be stronger are in :P I'll probably just swap Lurkers for some sort of soldier, and make them a little tougher for you to kill :P
Yes, I'm RAEG-DM'ING!!!! 8)

Well given that the MINIMUM damage we can ever do is 1, giving anything less than 3 HP is probably going to be useless if you want to make it an actual fight, not just us walking in an killing everything.

How about 10HP for Rats and Spiders, and probably +10 to the current other dudes? I've already increase the boss to 200, becuase the first murder of a defenceless Drider took barely any effort :P
Maybe I'll just bump him up to 1k HP. That should hopefully work. though considering how easy you guys roll well, I doubt it will make much difference :P

Well at 3d4 damage, I am rolling an average of 6 for damage with Salvo. DT is doing an average of 4 damage on a d6, and Kira is doing an average of 4 with her daggers I think. Gregs hammer might be a bit tougher. We can expect an average of 15-20 damage per turn if we ALL attack the same target, and that assumes we all hit and get one attack.
Taking into account the average number of attacks being 3, that becomes 45-60 damage per round assuming DT doesn't die and not assuming any misses. Add those and 30-35 damage per round against a single target becomes likely. a boss with 1000 Hitpoints at this stage will take days of rolling against.

I'll just make the Boss 500 then, as we seem to go rather quickly when we're not busy with work/life :P
Regular Monsters I'll bump to 20hp minimum, as that is top end average damage. Lurkers can be 30hp, whilst Guards can be 45hp.
I'm half tempted to say "Oh, I'm only going easy, just wait until you go deeper!!"("thats what kira said") but you guys know I don't want to be a fail DM XD

A reasonable average is needed. Some basic gribblies that are walk overs and then building up on that.

For most hostile NPCs, it is random. Some are pre-defined. Like in the Prison, you'll definately find Drider Guards.

On the Spot, I'd say Medium for one set of chitin, or Large for two sets.
The Chitin Armour would be similar.
In truth, I hadn't intended to make the chitin sound like a single set need to be shared between people. :P
Should probably message Jayne about one the items he possess :shifty:

And now you will have to carry the lantern(s) properly. Every torch is snuffed (but relightable) within the dungeon. I shall start rolling to snuff out your lantern(s) when it suits the situation.
I have adjusted the map to show where your own & natural light is reaching. This should add a bit more interest to your dungeoneering. I may add little bits here and there in future posts, so keep an eye on the map ;) Maybe then you'll find the secret rooms?

See. . .
I am kind of assuming we have those old style box lanterns but without any glass in them. A mesh should provide some protection against the wind.

Something like this?:
I'd assume as much as well, however, I don't think putting spider-silk around it will help. It'll just burn away, or just break apart due to tension.
Maybe I'll hide some sort of Light/Mage stone in the Dungeon? ;)
