Adventurer game night the first

Some people in know are getting together to game once or twice a week. these are the chronicles of what happened during the session.

Adventurer is a simple one page, three stat system. Fairly simple but very open ended and leave lots to creativity. Any one can cast spells as long as they pass their Int check.  which can come in handy in a pinch. All spells have a hit point cost which is reduced by how well you roll on your Int check. melee combat is pretty straight forward, with base damage equal to how much you beat your Str check by.  The system can be found on the 1,000 monkeys, 1,000 typewriters site. Which is a fun place to find out about new and different  role-playing systems.

 

DM  :

last nights session was a lot of fun. we have an Elven mage, a human fighter and goblin rogue. The mage almost died. and the fighter cast his first spell

Murray/Shaedyn :

Oooh cool

DM  :

they got summoned by the Vice Roy, because there is a giant rampaging his home town.

DM :

so on the way out of town after getting their assignment they stole a horse and a wagon, and a small cask of wine from this farmer. you can still get punished for your actions, but this trio had been causing trouble around town so the Vise Roy didn't send anyone after them.

DM :

so they got into a fight with some thugs, another mage and his apprentice.

The mage summoned in an earth elemental and then turned him invisible.

Murray/Shaedyn :

Wut!?

DM :

what part? the turning him invisible?

Murray/Shaedyn:

All of it

isn't earth elemental a bit much1?

DM :

well on the way to his home town is when the ran into these guys.

oh yea I forgot to tell you that this isn't a D&D system.

Murray/Shaedyn:

ahh okay true

DM :

so the earth elemental was not all that bad. the rogue and the fighter teamed up on the summoner and took him down. and when he died the elemental went with him.

Murray/Shaedyn:

ahhh okies, makes sense

DM :

his apprentice got sapped by the party mage with this massive lightning bolt.

Murray/Shaedyn:

Ooooh, bye bye apprentice!

DM:

one of the thugs got beat down but the two melee guys, and then the last guy died because the party mage lifted him a half mile into the air and then let him go.

Murray/Shaedyn:

Wow this mage seems pretty strong

DM :

well yes and no. how strong the spells are is determined by how well you roll.

and he just happened to roll max for those two spells.
