    (Temporary) Kaun Die Rolls New
  • Informational
    • Alright, I took a (not-so) quick nap in order to rejuvenate myself, so here we go with the rolls!

    For our charm themes we have:
    Charm Themes:
    • Scarred Endurance: Elevates the Exalts pain threshold, allowing them to take more punishment. (Granted from Patron)(Reduce the threshold for triggering Recovery for Fight Events by 10, to a minimum of 1.)
    • Piercings: Imbue the body with studs that provide different benefits. (Granted from Patron)(+10 to rolls involving piercings)
    • Hidden Face: Hide one's mysteries to avoid their discovery by the unworthy. (Granted from Situation)(+10 to Talk Events)
    • Uprising: Grants the Exalt skill in recruiting and empowering others against a Tyrant. (Granted from Situation)(+10 to Lead Events)

    For our events, we start out with the mandated Lead event. Our Chosen of Piercings is going to organize resistance against House Pelep's tyrannical ruling of Kumul.

    Event 1: Lead
    Roll Bonuses: +40 = +20 Main, +10 Gift, +10 Uprising
    Roll Result: 14 + 40 = 54, The rebellion is only able to get support from their Lodge initially for this rebellion, limiting operations at first.

    For the second event, the mandated Fight event, Kaun will need to fight off an Exalted assassin sent by House Sesus as a favor for House Peleps, hoping to head off the small rebellion before it becomes a problem. The Exigent will have found by this point a gift left by his patron in the form of minor artifact piercings which provide a combat boost, allowing me to add the bonus to his fight roll. In addition, thanks to Scarred Endurance, only a Natural 1 will trigger recovery for this event.

    Event 2: Fight
    Roll Bonuses: +20 = +10 Gift, +10 Piercings
    Roll Result: 67 + 20 = 87, The assassin is fought off and crippled at no harm to Kaun, though they are not slain. Still, they won't be coming back any time soon to cause problems.

    Next is our 3rd event, a Talk event. Kaun, knowing that he will need more allies soon in order to solidify his position and his movement, tries to get into contact with the Lunars of the Silver Pact in order to secure their alliance. In exchange for this help, Kaun will create piercings for their use (again, this is an excuse for me to add the bonus here).

    Event 3: Talk
    Roll Bonuses: +30 = +10 Gift, +10 Hidden Face, +10 Piercings
    Roll Result: 94 + 30 = 124. Negotiations go amazing, apparently the Exigent's crafted piercings are very compatible with Lunar charms, providing an incentive for the Silver Pact to coordinate with the rebellion and lend Exalted assistance.

    Now we get to the bonus events. As before, I won't go into heavy details with these, but I do have bonuses for them picked out ahead of time. You'll see what happens once I publish the story post.

    Event 4 (Bonus): Make
    Roll Bonuses: +10 = +10 Piercings
    Roll Result: 81 + 10 = 91

    Event 5 (Bonus): Lead
    Roll Bonuses: +50 = +20 Main Bonus, +10 Gift, +10 Uprising, +10 Piercings
    Roll Result: 87 + 50 = 137

    Event 6 (Bonus): Sneak
    Roll Bonuses: +10 = +10 Elder
    Roll Result: 19 + 10 = 29
    Event 6 Recovery: 89, Consumes an Event, next event will have double the threshold increase

    Event 7 (Bonus): Lead
    Roll Bonuses: +70 = +20 Main Bonus, +10 Gift, +10 Uprising, +10 Piercings, +20 Elder
    Roll Result: 1 + 70 = 71
    Event 7 Recovery: 7, failure, Kaun's journey ends here.

    Man, that Natural 1 really shut down those massive bonuses there. If I had to guess, Kaun might have gone genuinely senile by the time that Event took place. Hard to remember faces, information, etc. Still, besides that and the Sneak event, Kaun did quite well. We'll see how this takes shape with the story post, so stay tuned!

    Wow, they did some serious Work there despite operating on what seemed like a bottom of the barrel Terrestrial chassis.
