N/A Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 The OOC thread, wherein the events of the day finally start to catch up to Zöe. Psyche and Phalanx, thanks to the Communication Link, automatically "hear" Zöe and wake up. Everyone else can make a Notice (Listen) check. The DC is 15 ("quiet noises" are DC10 and "normal conversations" are DC0, so I'm setting this at a base of DC-10, +10 for you being asleep, +15 for the solid walls between you and her), +1 for every 10 feet between you and her room - in other words, -1 for every room between yours and hers. How many "doors down" you are, I leave to your discretion. Psyche & Wander's room is just a couple doors down, so Erin's Notice check is DC17, and they can get there at least a round before anyone else. Assuming he activates his Speed AP, Phalanx can show up on the same round they do. Link to comment
N/A Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 I referred to it as "some unknown language" because neither Alex nor Mike speak Japanese. :D Link to comment
quotemyname Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Notice DC 18 (for being the floor above) (1d20+6=24) I set the DC at 18 just cuz. Even if it's higher than that, I should be able to hear this with a 24. if not... HERO POINTS! Link to comment
Cyroa Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 notice (1d20+4=8) notice w/ hp (1d20+4=8) so 18, still should be enough Link to comment
N/A Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 24 is more than enough, Quote. Link to comment
N/A Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 Save your Hero Point, Cy. With Extended Scent, you only suffer -1 to Notice checks for every 100 feet between you and the target. You weren't asleep, so that's +10 to your check right there. And I'm not sure the walls should penalize your smell as much as they do everyone else's hearing. Link to comment
angrydurf Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Since the psychic link is basically plugged right into the "My daughter needs me" part of his brain Mike is working on auto-pilot for the first bit here Switch array to 7 speed/quickness as he wakes up and runs downstairs Link to comment
N/A Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 As I think it would stretch credibility to have too many boys running around the girls' dorm after lights out, I'll reluctantly let this one pass. (Plus, Mark's advice is: "Don't feel so sad!") Fair enough. It's not too important that any particular person shows up. I just PMed all the active Claremont students out of courtesy. And for some reason, I keep thinking of Claremont as a college rather than a boarding school. Hence, the fact that the dorms are not co-ed honestly didn't occur to me. >.> <.< Link to comment
Cyroa Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Ah, ok. I'm going to be unable to reply for a couple hours, don't jump too far ahead on me! ;) Link to comment
Electra Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 This thread is looking pretty crowded right now, and only so many people are going to fit into Zoe's room. =) Erin is not in the dorms tonight, she is off in the gym. Link to comment
N/A Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 Quote, Cy, now that you seem them side-by-side, the similarity is obvious and uncanny. Alex and Zöe look so much alike, they could be sisters. Link to comment
quotemyname Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I'll be sure to comment on that in my next post ;) Link to comment

quotemyname Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 *sigh* notice dc 16 (1d20+6=12) Too busy paying attention to Zoe >_> I'm up to 3HPs though. Link to comment
angrydurf Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Notice (1d20+4=7) Mike is not really listening, shocky girl and all that :) Link to comment
N/A Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 Beginner's Luck me up some Medicine ranks! House, eat your heart out! (1d20+5=25) Well, Diagnosis and Provide Care are both only DC15, so...damn. I'm gonna go ahead and give you some info that you'd normally need Knowledge (Behavioral Sciences) to figure out, on top of the physical stuff. Ecal, Gecko-Boy easily ascertains that Zöe has only minor, superficial cuts and bruises. She'll feel it in the morning, but she shows no signs of serious injury - no broken bones, no concussion. Head and hand cuts just tend to bleed profusely, so they look worse than they are. In fact, considering the damage she did to the wall, she made out a lot better than she should have. She must be stronger than she looks. The vomiting, taken in context with everything else she's saying and doing, likely has nothing to do with her actual digestive system. Rather, it points pretty obviously to her being in shock. She's clearly been traumatized by something. It's too soon to tell if it's full-fledged Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. If you had to guess, you'd say she's either been severely abused, or had a front-row seat to the grievous injury or death of a loved one. If you patch her up, she'll get +5 (your "skill bonus") to her Recovery checks. I'm gonna rule that she's got a couple of Bruises. Between your +5 Medicine bonus and her +4 CON bonus, she'll auto-pass. Link to comment
