Valerie looks startled when Allison walks in. "You're still here! I thought you were... well, I guess I don't know what I thought."

"I think I'll still try not to get hurt," Valerie says. She gives Jessamine a small smile as she approaches the group. "Pain is... painful."

Re: Vanguard Academy OOC Thread

Insert picture of the largest waffle that ever waffled. I am sunk deep in the depths of decision paralysis, coupled with a few weks of work-stress-enabled creative drought. 'bout to send the GM a message with some idea-ness. FWIW, between Skew's Deflecting and Violet's Interposing, you can probably...

Valerie sends back a quick, simple: I don't mind. Then later that day, she steps out of the locker room in her uniform, not really knowing what she's in for.

Oh, did Violet's computer check about strange subway tunnels to nowhere turn anything up?

Re: How do you worldbuild settings?

I could probably stand to read through those Dungeoncraft articles. I like to toy around with making settings, but when I try to run a game in one I find myself looking at it and wondering: okay, how does this lead to four or so people with superpowers hanging out together and getting into fights on...

Re: Mutants and Masterminds partners with Valiant Comics

It's a small thing, but I have my doubts about separating Drive and Pilot. In a game where the ability to fly under your own power or even teleport is designed to be affordable, even one Vehicles skill can feel overpriced, let alone two.

Re: Interest Check: Valiant Adventures/3E Mash-Up

I know how hard it is to keep a game running for any length of time. I'm pretty confident I've stumbled at least as many times as you have.

Re: Vanguard Academy OOC Thread

Computers check about mysterious tunnels: 1D20+11 = [9]+11 = 20


Violet probably won't have time to look into the matter until after a scene change, but when she does get a chance, there's the die roll for it.

I'm not really a GI Joe expert, but I'd see what I could make for it!

Re: Mutants and Masterminds partners with Valiant Comics

Suffering damage on on a successful toughness check actually makes more sense to me, if you want every successful attack roll to to be a hit. If a normal person without any body armor rolls a 20 on a toughness save and completely resists damage from a gun or a knife, the only explanation that makes ...

Gather Information takes at least an hour, but I'll roll a Computers check for it whenever Violet has the opportunity.

"On our own? Why? I mean, we could probably just... ask..."

Valerie's voice trails off. She sighs unhappily and takes out her phone. "I can try to dig something up, but it'll take a while."

Re: Mutants and Masterminds partners with Valiant Comics

The villain in the quickstart has Impervious, though it isn't called that by name. She's immune to damage of rank 7 or less with a toughness of 12, which is slightly more than she could have under 3e Impervious, but there's no way of knowing if that's the most Impervious she could possibly have, or ...

Violet HP: 2 | CND: Anxious | Room 110, Byrne House | Delta Class With no exotic senses of her own, other than her reaction time, Valerie can only listen to Jessamine and Zoska as they describe their observations. "So, we should ask the faculty about this, right?" she asks. "I mean, ...
