    Okay I am certainly going to be showing my mental density here but I must have failed to grasp really any of the lore of DnD or of The Unquiet Lands. Ioun and Avandra are DnD deities, right? They must be polar opposites? How/when did we find out that the Constellation Bureau was aligned with Ioun...

    Umi, why would the constellation bureau have appropriated their alchemy supplies? Is this monastery part of the church of avandra? And here are some rolls from Konstansz to piece all this information together and glean any new insights: insight

    Then it sounds like an appropriate response would be to continue Perception checks and not worry about the insight until such time as an NPCs behavior warrants it or a perception check indicates something fishy is going on. Do I need to be more actively rolling perception on each new encounter...

    Nox (with the help of Konstanz) will be actively searching for "life-like" homunculus and suspicious of any new encounters. So, Umi, if you could let me know if anything beyond a simple perception check would be useful in either confirming or denying someone is an animated doll, I would appreciate...

Could a particular artifact or person be a sort of puppet master which would serve to explain the seemingly rapid change in disposition of the Hegumenia? EDIT:...

    Also I would like to know if there are any hidden paths that may lead to inner rooms of the more fortified buildings, perhaps the party can use these tunnels as a way to accomplish our goals without having to fight our way through every doorway.

    I'd guess the dragonling speaks some sort of draconic. But I doubt it can form the words to any common. It's probably just communicating with you via gestures and nips to move you in the correct direction.

    Nox sees the dragonling take flight and make a b-line right for them. He attempts to swat it away so that it does not give up their position. Unfortunately if not for the little whelp, the pointed head nodding of Yrisz would be enough to give them up anyway. With a sigh, Noxias steps out of his...

    Can we remain in stealth and still follow or must we be exposed? Can Konstansz' dragonling tell us where they are going and then we can meet them there or otherwise remain hidden? Is the mere fact that a flying creature dives into a bush and then flies back out enough to compromise our position?...

    It would be better to stick together if we can realistically get them here quickly. To that end, Konstansz will send her dragonling out to try to lead them back (possibly resorting to nipping at them if that's what it takes to get them moving back in the gate direction).

Tenra Banshou Zero Sample NPCs

by Umiushi on 06-15-2013 at 07:43 AM
As I usually do with pre-packaged settings, I have altered a number of elements to suit my tastes. The descriptions provided in this post can be said to broadly resemble the official world, but differ in many specifics.

Tenra Banshou Zero is an alternate, "hyper-Asian" world consisting of entrenched human colonists and aboriginal oni, where advanced spiritual technology lies in the hands of Buddhist preachers, Shinto priests, and Taoist sorcerers. Political power is wielded

Mekton Zeta and Zeta Plus Sample Mecha, Starship, and NPCs

by Umiushi on 06-14-2013 at 06:44 PM
Technology in Mekton settings often undergoes rapid development. What follows is information from two years prior to the scenario. Damage, structure, and stopping, essentially "hit points" are measured differently between mecha-scale and personal-scale. For NPCs, units are measured in Hits, and for mecha and starship they are measured in Kills. Roughly speaking, one Kill is 25 Hits, though in practice it is difficult to use Hits of damage to affect Kills of structure. Therefore, the

Feng Shui Sample NPCs

by Umiushi on 06-13-2013 at 04:57 AM
The Feng Shui scenario will not take place in the standard setting of the "Secret War." That doesn't mean some of the props won't be reused, as can be seen below with the inclusion of Buro-like weaponry. It will still be a world where magic and super-science can be found lurking not too far below the surface.

Maid Sample Setting and NPCs

by Umiushi on 06-12-2013 at 03:59 AM
The setting chosen for the proposed scenario in Maid has a few special rules. The two NPCs were created in accordance with those rules.

Mansion Setting
World: Early Modern Fantasy
Mood: Lighthearted (casual, warm pace) to Action (fast-paced and eventful)

Appearance
The mansion has a castle-like appearance and is painted wholly in red. It lies on an island in a misty lake, connected to the mainland by a causeway. The surrounding world is a fairytale
