papalonianI don’t get the DCs and “success/fail” in this context, can someone explain? Where would a 5 be a success and 20 be a failure?
The DC to convince the hangman is 5, the DC to convince the head guy is 20. DC stands for Difficulty Check and it is the number you have to pass or meet on your roll + bonuses.
So is the joke that the PC convinced the hangman (who only needed a 5), hence the “success”, but failed to convince the leader (who needed a 20), hence the confused guy reading “failure”?
I didn’t know that the second guy was supposed to be the leader, that would’ve made more sense. Thanks
Makes sense if you’ve seen the movie
VindictiveJudgeThe Mummy 1999. An excellent pulpy action-adventure-horror film starring Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, and Arnold Vosloo. Has a fun sequel, The Mummy Returns, which itself has a fun prequel titled The Scorpion King.
There is a third Mummy movie titled The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. Do not watch that one; the script was so terrible that Weisz refused to return. I’m unsure about the various sequels to The Scorpion King.
There was a reboot released in 2017 starring Tom Cruise. It’s terrible, do not watch it.
A new movie in the 1999 continuity is being released in 2028. Fraser and Weisz are confirmed to return.
