Norman Rockwell And Stavos Vanilli: It's Like That Show "Perfect Strangers"
2 silver per week, huh Theo? Well alright, you get what you pay for I guess. So you're only hiring the one guy I take it.
He's a half-orc named Norman Rockwell.
Tut, does that change your payment schedule? There's a big difference between 2 sp/week and 2 gp/week. It'd be like hiring a guy for $80,000 a year, or asking him to do the same job for $4,000 per year. Stavos Vanilli could really care less though, he just seems excited to make some crazy robots.
And yeah, making the robot was contingent on getting the cash to get the metal and complicated parts. But eh, okay, cross off your 10 gp and let's get rid of the scale mail and we're good. Just to make it easy.
So hear that? No scale mail anymore people, but you are now adventuring with a scary spiderbot. And everyone's got 8 hp of Goodberry healing.
Tut and Theo, any instructions for your workers while you're gone? What should they work on?...
Combat starts, everyone in their own little 3 rat combat.
KT:
Miss on the free round. The next couple of rounds, you kill one and wound one. A bunch of misses on you and a double damage! For 1 X 2 = 2 hp dmg, plus make a save vs. poison!
The spiderbot does not yet have a mounted crossbow, so it hangs out for the first round. Then, in the next three rounds, it kills two of the rats and takes 3 hp dmg.
Thren:
Wow you're good. Kill a rat each of the three rounds, so by the end, you're ratless. You can now help others as you desire. No hits.
Theo:
Well that's a different story. You wound a rat, and then the rats swarm you over the next (first full melee round). Two hits and a double damage. You take, well, just 7 hp, but make a save vs. poison!
HP check:
KT: 20/22 + poisoned?
Spiderbot: 34/37
Theo: 3/10 + poisoned?
Thren: 10/10
