Visions of Horror Planning

Post by Nozomi » Sat Jun 06, 2020 1:21 pm

It'll be a good idea to have a Vision of Horror Planning thread going, so that we can confer on who gets raises on the Hunting/Herbalism roll to get additional herbs, and who they are sharing with.

Phi (No, Phi isn't dead. ^.~) will succeed on her roll, with 1 Raise: Her Roll Pity I didn't call two raises, but 6k4 v 25 is not always a safe bet, and I'm a conservative roller.

I'm not tagging into stuff until later tomorrow and I'll have her hunting down herbs. But, she'll have enough to help 1 additional person. First come first served. She'll willingly help anyone who looks like they could use it.

==============================
Tracking:
Nanzi - Auto Success, no raises called.
Phi - Success on Herbalism, 1 Raise available (+1 Herb), Absolute Epic Fail on Fear check.
Umeno - No Herbs. Success, 3 Raises Called
Jiyo Ayumu - Success, +2 Herbs, 5 Raises Called
Jiyo Sora - Meditation Failure, -1 Herb (Ayumu)
Ryoshun Mai - Success, No Raises
Seidou Satone - Succes, No Raises
Inga - Failed Herbalism & Meditation
Seppun Dawei - 2 Raises on Herbs, Failure on Meditation (+2 Herbs)
Reo - 2 Raises on Herbs, Succeed on Meditation (+2 Herbs)
Saruko - 2 Raises on Meditation, Successful
NPC: -1 Herb (Ayumu)
Ch’chit T’kkiri: Successful with 2 raises on Fear
Taochusu: Failed Meditation
Seppun Chisei: +1 Herb, Success (3 Raises)
Shinjo Koyama: Spanked the roll (6 Raises, +3 Herbs)
Doji Kaze: No Herb change, Fail Meditation
Wu: Crushed Meditation roll... I think (5 raises, +2 Herb)
Ninube: -1 Herb (Reo), Beat Meditation and Fear with 1 Called Raise.
Hantei Kinsen: +0 Herb, Meditation Fail
Seidou Haruya: +0 Herb?, Meditation Fail
Hanzou: +2 Herb, Fear Failure
Reiko: +0 Herb, Success (2 Raises)
Ko: +0 Herb, Success
Jin: +0 Herb, Success
Shinjo Miuna: -1 Herb (Phi), Success (1 Raise)
Miyako: +0 Herb, Fear Fail
Togashi Nadare: +1 Herb, Success
Kanna: +0 Herb, Success (2 Raises)
Yoshitsune Nori: +2 Herbs, Success
Ryoko no Ongaku: -1 Herb, Meditation Fail
Noriaki no Yamadono: Meditation Fail
Shoji Haka: Pass!
Anjing Xia: Fear Fail

Total Success Ratio: 20/33 rolled successfully (I now feel reasonably confident we have achieved a basic victory.)
Total Raises Successfully Called: We should be good on Raises
Total Available Herbs for Others: I've lost track. A lot, hah.

Total Applicable Characters: 36. (I just did the check.)

With Void I'm 6k4 on Hunting, so I might dare to raise. But I'll get to it later today and hopefully help out someone.

Adding two extra herbs to the common pots (maybe? depends of others).
Adding 5 Raises to the total of Raises needed.

Yeah, Ayumu's sleeping pretty peacefully in all that madness. He is perfectly unbearable.

Yes, spending Void on the Fear roll and calling some raises there would have been mathematically better that putting it all in the Meditation roll. But gotta flex that meditation/void you know?

Sora failed to find a plant, ate the fear check for lunch with only the free raise from Ayumu's plant to show for it... and failed the meditation roll by 1.

So a pretty typical day for him when I actually have to roll for things :evil:

I forgot to raise and spend Void on my Hunting roll, so I only got herbs for myself (and I had misremembered my previously stated Hunting too, so I didn't want to take chances).

Otherwise, succeeded the whole thing, with effectively 2 raises.

I've got two free doses of Herbs ready, if someone needs them. PM me, and I can hand them over.

So...that makes 2 Raises on the Hunting roll, a Free Raise not expended, and a failed Meditation roll.

My second remaining herb has been spent too actually (on a NPC, but that's still a -1 to that total).

Just want to note that my Meditation was effectively 2 raises because of the Free Raise and 1 called Raise. :D

Alright, as it stands, we have 11 rolls made, 7 of them successful and a total of 11 raises (I am assuming you have to succeed entirely for the raises to count against the 20 mark).

More importantly, there are about 5 herb packs roaming around to be shared. So, if characters aren't competent to hunting or herbalism but want to have the +5, that is available in theory.

And thank you Saruko, so 12 raises of 20. I don't see getting to 20 raises as being the breaking point here. It'll most likely be whether or not 3/4 of the participants are successful, as Void-Meditation and Fear as a combination aren't necessarily always in everyone's skill set and Orokos is always Orokos.

+2 doses of mushrooms to share, if anyone wants some.

If no one claims them I may just stir them into the soup at dinner time. Surely nothing could go wrong with that.
