GM Questions

[Seppun Dawei]

As to this:

"Maybe. Maybe not. If that's standard maintenance material for wood, there's probably some in the pile of stuff I've borrowed for a few hours. If not, then the answer is no."

Dawei's gonna look. Any luck?

Bumping to remind.

[Jin]

To what extent, with the current rules, can players teach and share spells?

XP spend of some sort, rank up only, something else?

[Miyako]

Quick XP purchase when someone is free~

[Canary]

Rank up only at the moment. We'll see if an XP spend option is viable at game end.

[Togashi Saruko]

Subject: Double Checking the Stores (D9, EM, Open)

[Jin successfully purges any remaining trace of disease from the supplies, resulting in a loss of two week's worth of food for two individuals. A significant but far from crippling loss.]

Is this something that becomes known to the expedition?

Saruko have some personal rations she packed that she'll happily donate (9 days worth for 1 person).

EDIT: Would also choosing to fast (by also using the Fasting function for Meditation, by rolling Meditation/Stamina vs TN 15+5 per day of fasting) also help the food stocks? As Saruko isn't a warrior, she'd want to prioritize the warriors and shugenja to get their fill.

Yes. There's going to be general information distributed to the expedition shortly.

And yes, that would help.

[Hanzou]

I realize it's late in the day, but would an OOC post collecting hunting/fishing/foraging efforts help replenish supplies?

I've slots I can task that way, with permission.

[Jin]

Let me know if I over (or under) stepped my interpretation of the Lore roll here

Sure. Successful rolls will just replace the missing supplies, I won't dig into the specifics.

[Nozomi]

Are Taint resistance rolls required, or are we not 'quite' to that point just yet.

[Jin]

For multitarget damaging spells do you prefer one roll of damage applied equally to each target or individual rolls for each target?

Not certain I'm jumping in combat but just in case

[Jiyo Ayumu]

Does the Balance Advantage work against Fear?

Are techniques which would add Honor to a roll cumulative with the normal Honor addition of rolls against Fear?

When they're required, you'll know.

One roll applied equally for ease of bookkeeping.

No, no.

[Kyosei of the Isawa]

Ah, what happens if one of us was to, say, summon Fire in the web area before the event were to open? Webs are particularly flammable, after all.

Asking for a... neighbor with arachnaphobia. Yeah, that's why...

[Hantei Kinsen]

Question!

[Seppun Dawei]

A question, given timezone shenanigans.

Consider my 9 rations donated.

[Togashi Saruko]

Can Saruko get a feel on any realm tied to the ruins here? (similarly to checking the Marker way back when)

[Seppun Chisei]

Do we count as "in the Shadowlands" for purposes of spells, like Inari's Blessing?

"This spell generates enough food and drink to sustain a number of individuals equal to your School Rank +1 for one day. Without Raises, this food is bland but sustaining. such as unflavored rice and water, but with Raises, you can increase the quality of the food to seafood or tea at the GMs discretion. The TN to cast this spell is doubled when in the Shadowlands."
