[IC] New Crobuzon & the World Beyond

[GM Marvel]

[[Then what explains the beast that Selina one-hit critted into a pelt?  With regeneration, it would stay unconscious at a VERY high negative hit point level and then gradually regenerate HPs...not get flayed alive.  The only other thing I can think of is some sort of odd vulnerability to massive damage.]]

Listen: [1d20+5] = 10+5 = 15

[[I accidentally rolled her regular mod for Listen, so -10 that's a 5, which is sufficient to beat the DC0 of "people talking" or the DC (-10) of "a battle."]]

[OoC: Well, being turned into a pelt was a bit of hyperbole.  It reminded me of an old Shadowrun video game.  When you got a mission to hunt hellhound for their pelts, as soon as you kill a hellhound they instantly turn into stretched out pelts.  It seems the only way to kill something that doesn't have a specific vulnerability is through starvation, thirst, or suffocation.  So hanging (or just tying a rope around its neck), burying or drowning them seems like the best bet.  

P.S. I usually allow Coup de Grace to kill regenerating creatures.  Especially if it's from an attack they target is vulnerable to.]

[OoC: I assume they will be whispering (DC15) not talking (DC:0). ]

But whatever Kubo's roll, Tomeal decides to wake Selina.  He knows it won't disrupt her praying for spells so there's no reason for her to remain sleeping when there's a possibility of her being surprised.  She can make up the few minutes she misses to get the full 8 hours for healing purposes.  Unlike arcane casters, she wouldn't need to add an extra hour onto her sleep for being interrupted to benefit from restful sleep.
