"Oh, and hand me the black cap, will you, I'll be needing that." |
"Ragnar Ivaldsson Long, you have been found guilty of the charges brought by this court, and it is now my duty to pass sentence. You are an habitual criminal, who accepts arrest as an occupational hazard, and presumably accepts imprisonment in the same casual manner. We therefore feel constrained to commit you to the maximum term allowed for these offences: you will be sent to the Tarkwall prison facility on Keanou for five years."
"Ansgar Padraigson Long, you have also been found guilty of the charge of piracy, you will go to prison for four years."
House Rules #3 : Bonus Dice When rolling up a character, each player gets 6 bonus dice. Any time a roll is made (during character creation or play) a player may use additional dice from his pool of bonus dice and take whichever 2 dice they want from those rolled to form the random portion of the task roll. Dice used are permanently lost from the pool. Additional dice may be awarded in play for particularly good role play, insight, planning or ideas as judged by the referee. |
This is obviously a miscarriage of justice as Sali Hasvirsson Hjalmir (aka Magnus Olafsson Karlseffni) didn't shoot Eric and Derek, it was Ansgar. But Imperial justice eh, what can you do? (Remember to use your bonus dice to improve your sentencing roll, obviously).

Ah, Porridge, I remember watching it as a kid. I was used to seeing Ronnie Barker in the sketch comedy of "The Two Ronnies" so it was a relavation to see him in a character-driven comedy series.
ReplyDeleteI ran a major character through the LBB adventure "Prison Planet", which played around with the concept of time in an adventure in an interesting fashion. Kept the PC out of circulation for a couple of game years which had interesting knock-on effects for his business interests.
It was a fit up! I never done nothin', your honour!
