META QUESTION

I know it says in the battle guide that for Hunters, once their HP reaches 0, their FEAR shield disappears and they can get real damage from their attackers. Gale's HP went down to -9 before I was able to warp him out of his fight - does this mean that the burns/cuts he sustained will scar him, or will that night of recovery he spent (the 12 OOC hours) mean he's okay? Since it also says that the damage was more psychological, than physical.

Um, Roch was fighting Marsh the Sex Panda's boo, but then I checked the tent thread and apparently the boo was captured by the hunters, so... do we finish off the fight? Even tho technically he's in two threads at once?

Go ahead and finish the fight~

It's up to you whether you want scars or not -- generally between -5 and -9 HP there's no scarring. At -10, however... that's an entirely different story.

Also please keep in mind that next time you can only do one action per turn: you can either fight, defend, use a Fear, or flee. You can't attack then flee next post. <3

Gale didn't attack during the second round; he was just attacked himself. xDD The first round was the only time he attacked with the capture gun thingy, and since he was successful, he didn't have anything to do the second round. xD

BUT YES THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT FOR ME! C: <333

Battle thing! I think there's something off with Swift Strikes right now, in terms of adding up the dice?

Right now for Y1/2 it says:

Damage: Add up the dice, divide by the modifier result.


And for Y3 it says:

Damage: Ignore the first dice, total up the remaining dice. Divide or multiply by the modifier depending.


Should these all be the same, and if so which is correct? XD I played it safe and did the last one because I thought I remembered that from testing but I wasn't sure~ some clarification would be super appreciated :>!

Do boos entering the gauntlet have to roll anything? Would it matter where the boo comes from?

My boo is already at the tent.  

[lizbot]

Those two boos don't have to roll through the gauntlet, they're entering from the hunter side, and thus ~ no lasers/traps/whatevers

WHOOPS they should all be the same, yes. Doing the last option was the correct way to go; the fear guide has been fixed for this! Thank you for pointing it out~ <3

If Reapers have multiple weapons (as in the case with Shun with two daggers, or Colette), are they able to summon/dismiss them individually? As in only call out/ recall one dagger if they want to? Or would it always have to be both?  

[lizbot]

It's both ~ they don't exist separately until they've been summoned. After that point, the reaper can always like...just use one and sheathe the other.

Got a couple of questions for you~

In the Halloween universe, is it possible for vampires to have been living beforehand? Like, actually being turned into a vampire instead of either phasing into being or poppin' out of a pumpkin?

And for demon marks, does the demon themselves decide how it looks or is it a 'decided at birth' kinda thing?

EDIT: Oh, just remembered the other question I had. What kind of asylum-like establishments does Halloween have?

Related question: Is the mythos involving Werewolf venom/bites = human --> Werewolf still valid at all or is that something humans made up as a coping mechanism with the existence of the werewolves?  

[lizbot]

Vampires could be once-living....Halloweeners. Much like zombies or ghosts hold that potential. However, they were not once human. As monsters, werewolves are born, rather than bitten and turned. Their shapeshifting and general bitey attitude led to the bite = werewolf legends in the world ages ago.

Asylums....are asylums, you can make up names for any places you want to exist ICly. A standard feature among these places would be a ward that represses FEAR and natural abilities in everyone except asylum staff members, as uncontrollable abilities are a fairly common issue with patients/inmates.

Question. A hunter who saw shadows/ghosts and was recruited because of this into Deus Ex. What sort of things do they see? Is it like kingdom hearts where they see vague indistinct shadow creatures other people cannot or is it like actual halloween denizens? Would they have it all their life or would it be sudden onset/intolerable?

And how are they usually recruited? Someone appears to them with an offer or more extreme than this? Apologies, I wasn't here for the initial hunter event so a lot of things are still a grey area for me and character journals vary.  

[lizbot]

For the most part it's just vague shadows ~ but occasionally a TiHer won't have their presence locked down fully, giving those pre-hunters one or two brief glances into what really lies beyond those shadows. They are what they are from birth, but some don't really start comprehending that they are seeing something different until there's a drastic change in their life that makes the shadows more apparent, and difficult to ignore. This might be anything ranging from the onset of puberty to a near death experience. But it's just as likely to have been simply a part of their life all their life, without the huge personal dramas.

Someone appears, gives them the "truth is out there" speech, and makes them an offer when the time seems right. By extreme...well, they aren't just showing up, holding people at gunpoint and saying "Join us or die." Emotional manipulation? Sure. Dire warnings? of course. Deception and too-good-to-be-true offers? Totally. Holding your family hostage? Not so much.

Question: Someone in our Meta group has pretty much vanished and it is hindering our progress. Is there a way we can work around that?
