I will correct my count, count the 15 as honed each. Remember, the new mechanics are that there is a 1d4 chance of an arrow breaking and whether the arrow hits or not, it loses the honed attribute.
I am also considering adding a "deadly" aspect to arrows meaning you would get another roll for critical hit.
Non-critical DMG = 1d6+A
Critical DMG = (1d6+A)x2 + 1dB
Where A is your normal modifier and B is a dice either 4, 6, 8, or 10 which acts as an additional "force" damage.

By the way, Endchan is working again!
I hope you do stop by, we can continue to play D&D here but I'd like to outsource offtopic to Endchan because it's much easier to post videos and other files there. We shouldn't let it go to waste.

Alice replies with a grin as she pokes the trash
You never know where they might be hiding!
...
No seriously, we need some glass shards for our firebombs. I was just looking if I could recycle any broken glass! If you come across any before we leave tomorroww, pls save it for me, Freya!
Tired after the cooking and cleaning, Alice moves upstairs and hides under the bed, quickly falling asleep
During the night, the dung beetle briefly escapes, crawling over Yulya and Cat in the bed above but is soon caught by a pseudopod and dragged under the bed again.

« Last post by Wofl on March 30, 2025, 12:24:27 PM »After 100k words the novel "Dire Joy" is complete in its first draft. It ended with a montage detailing our lives in the little town until Bear and I died of old age. Joy stayed in town until her 107th year and left for less crowded places unknown.
Our next story starts with a shipwreck on a rocky island Southwest of Leilon. Bear, Gwen and Summer (Ulla) but not the same Summer as your Summer exactly, are in this one. Summer's more Ulla in this one, not human but the true dragon hybrid. Though she does get to keep the Ring of Summer, preventing her aging and giving her immunity to cold. In this timeline She's still 10 in form but older in mentality, 14.
I will be lock-merged with her so I still get to have fun, she's a really fun character to play, which is how it feels to lock-merge.
In this year, Freya had just arrived in Baldur's Gate after leaving the Feywild and won't be in Neverwinter for 4 more years, Ashley has yet to arrive to the material plane. Probably about 2 years before she arrives near the southern edge of Neverwinter Wood.
This Bear isn't the same Bear and he may not be a ranger or hunter this time, right now they're all level 0 and unclassed though Summer will obviously be a magic user, Gwen likes being a bard, but we'll see.
Right now they're washed up on a rocky beach with the mainland just a few miles East but there is a fast moving channel and dangerous coral between them. Gwen could technically fly across carrying Summer though just barely.
This island is otherwise impossible to land with ships of any size due to its strong channel currents and coral reefs on the lee side and the steep rocky cliffs on the winward side, battered by 10-30ft waves constantly.
Now they must explore and decide their fates!
Summer is Gwen's Attendant as she's a royal from Altus who escaped her guilded cage to seek her independence. They're all pretty much left with only the clothes they have bit Gwen had a necklace of fast casting and Bear has his amulet of unknown power.
I can't wait to see how this goes! The goal of this one is to get to level 10 by any means.

In all Ashley spent two hours looking in her book and didn't find what she was looking for but the text was very dense and technical and she wasn't used to most of the symbols. She went up to bed first. [Ashley will learn an appropriate spell as long as she spends at least 8 hours searching and 8 hours learning the spell, it will be awarded at level 4. She will do this during downtime automatically as long as she has her book.]
Yulya followed her, and spent each hour honing 4 arrows for 6 hours. By the time Alice and Cat came to bed, Yulya had the piercing arrows honed and Cat's sword ready. She distributed half the arrows to each of Alice and Cat, along with the blunt arrows, roughly half of them, they had a full set ready to go.
[I have 10 blunt and 10 honed each for Cat and Alice, if you remember differently please correct me. Blunt arrows fly half as far on the high end but are still accurate on the low end.]
[Appropriate rolls]
Alice comes up with nothing in terms of shards, the plates are glazed stoneware, the tankards are enamel coated pewter, all the eatery are mild nickle steel, there's really no glass other than the windows of the guild, wine bottles and snifters.
As Freya finishes cleaning the tables she notices Alice looking in the kitchen.
"Whatever are you looking for dear?" She says as she wipes her brow after a hard night's running around.

Come on, do you guys never break anything? There must be something in this kitchen! Don't make me break things to get my shards!
