I prefer rping with concepts and creatures that aren't described in the books. The books are totally awesome, but me and my group are more interesting in exploring the rest of the universe then playing the canon stuff. I don't see any reason that jumpers couldn't exist in the Dresdenverse, the nevernever is infinite and the the mundane world is much larger then Chicago and the few other places touched on in the books, no reason the jumpers and million other kinds of supers couldn't exist and never get a mention in the canon.


Its been a long time since I've seen the movie, but I like the concept and if you post up some kind of template to start with I'll be will to offer what help I can. If you do just develope it off-line, then please share when you get it done, there are plenty of us that can take just about anything and spin it into our stories.

Any chance of us seeing that compiled list? It would be a great benefit to the community at large.

Ah, there is more then a chance, but not right now. Probably some time in July, but definitely not before the books are officially released, that would just seem like an abuse of the preorder pdfs. That said, I might write up a quick list of the stunt names and their page numbers to post in this thread, but it will prob be a few days, as my plate is a little full in real life.

Yes, very nice. I love me some True Faithers.

Spray attacks seem inherently situational and often come 'free' on certain varieties of guns, so I can see not charging too much for the ability. 

True, but it is also pretty tough to do a spay attack with guns that don't do it for you... but thematically I have to agree that the cost to value is fair on their version.

What I am thinking is to change my stunt to do something like, "Requires Blaze Away. On a successful spray-attack with a firearm normally incapable of doing so, gain 2 shifts to the roll."

Just a quick note. I've been compiling all the new stunts in the Our World book and it seems that my Rapid Fire stunt is very similar to the Blaze Away stunt on OW:221, except the latter is defined simply as "You can use any firearm to make a spray attack, even one not normally capable of doing so." I personally prefer my version as the OW one seems to broad, but thought I would point it out now that I noticed it.

Seeing some nice stuff in here, gives me lots of ideas about plots to use the stunts.

Got some more stunts. They are based on some of the ones posted by DesertCoyote and take what was posted after into account. Thanx for the ideas and Card Shark is awesome, I'm definitely using that in my next session.

Deceit

(based on 'Road Agent's Spin')
Sure, I Give Up: Whether it's something in your voice, a trick with your weapon, or something similar, you have a knack for feigning surrender and turning it into an attack. When disguised as surrender, Deceit may be used to make a physical attack, replacing the appropriate skill (Fists, Guns, Weapons). When successful, the spending of a fate point grants an additional 2 shifts. Few people would fall for this trick twice, and a good justification should be given to even make the attempt.

Stealth

(based on 'Lived with the Natives', based off of 'Blend In')
Native of the Land (Specify): The land and you are as one. If there is a sufficient way to hide in the surroundings, gain +2 to your Stealth rolls for a particular broad type of environ (desert, forest, grassland, jungle) specified when this stunt is taken. This is particularly useful when Shadowing (page YS:143) someone through your chosen habitat.

Weapons

(based on 'Saloon Brawler')
Barroom Brawler: Even a spoon is dangerous in your hands. When using improvised weapons taken from the current location (chairs, bottles, utensils, pool-cue) receive +1 to Weapons skill. Common items used as weapons don't tend to last very long, any given item lasting no longer then the current scene and some surviving no more then a single blow.

Nimble on Two Wheels (Athletics): Use Athletics instead of Driving when attempting maneuvers on a motorcycle.

Nice, that looks like a good one. I know my NPCs would like it as my players really enjoy running down motorcycle-bad-guys with big metal cars.

Fate Point Utilizing Stunts: I'm pretty sure there are no specific rules, actually. Though tacking a +2 on top of whatever the effect would be if it didn't cost a Fate Point seems to be a good barometer.

I have barely touched Our World, but the only thing I have found on fate points and stunts is YS:149, the last one in the list.

Get a more powerful effect, but only when you spend a fate point. Usually only allowed once per scene.

Example: Killer Blow – Add 3 to the damage of a Fists attack on a successful hit, once per scene, for a fate point. This stacks with any other damage-increasing stunts for Fists.

I going to use the "handle with care" approach for now.

Had a good session last night. Started with the player killing some coyotes that were attacking one of the cows. The player got some good rolls and was able to take out two of them with his rifle, his dog Scooter used its 'Big Doggie' aspect and was able to kill another of the coyotes and the last coyote gave up and was able to escape with a few good athletics rolls.

Later a pack of wolves attack while the player was traveling. The wolfs attempted an ambush, but the player's horse rolled good and alerted its rider. The player decided to escape, and pushing the horse to the most (a series of endurance rolls for the horse and survival for the rider). Both rider and horse gain a little stress and as did two of the wolves, but the dice were kind and both rider and horse survived.

All in all, it was a very enjoyable session and having premade animal sheets kept rp moving along and allowed me to spend time beforehand preparing my NPCs instead of the animals. Good work Deadmanwalking, me and my player both thank you.

Been going through the animals one by one, while converting them to html, and have a couple questions.

1) On the 'Silverback Gorilla', what is the stunt 'Defend My Tribe'?

2) What kind of animal is 'Savage Jungle Cat'; jaguar, panther, some other type, or any type?
