WoD Dice Symbols

[ProfDogg]

Either I'm really obtuse or they're just not in the wiki, but what are the various dice symbols/colors for all these sets? I'm trying to interpret the die rolls to match to them and I'm not sure if I'm seeing the dice right or I'm just confused sometimes when I interpret them. I realize there's a total calculated but a few times I don't see the correlation.

Also, I'm not sure how the Werewolf Regenerate button is supposed to work. When I click it, nothing happens to the Health Tracker and no die rolls or such.

Werewolf's core rulebook provides the break down of the dice symbols under the Rage Dice page in the reference manual. Vampire also provides a break down of their dice symbols as well under Dice Pool results in their core rulebook.

Thank you. I didn't realize they were "official" symbols.... I just thought they were an FG thing...

[ProfDogg]

For some reason, the campaign I'm building with only Werewolf selected (i.e. not Hunter or Vampire) is showing the VTM ankh symbols rather than the Werewolf Fang and Scratch symbols.

I'll have a look, but may take some time to devote any real time at the moment. A high priority project has my attention, but I will jump on this once I have freed up some time.

It's cosmetic so no hurries as far as I'm concerned...

I took a look and I'm not seeing this. I tested this with three fresh characters and rolled a skill check. Are you doing something different? Can you provide your exact steps in how you are replicating this?

Apologies for the delay, been away from my desktop for a bit... So, just checked it again and still doing it. I have a WW game I'm building... No extensions (or at least for now for testing)... I have Hunter and Vampire off in Options. I go to an SPC entry, open it, click a skill (Brawl for example)... Results come up as VtM symbols....

Changing dice up doesn't affect it (at least the ones I've chosen so far)...

[superteddy57]

Ah NPCs are different case and yes, it's on my list to solve as I have to figure out what dice to use to get the proper symbols. The NPCs default to vampire for the time being.

[ProfDogg]

You know I didn't even think to create a PC for it... Again, no worries on my part, it's cosmetic and most players don't know look beyond results anyhow so probably wouldn't notice...

[superteddy57]

Yeah I understand and something I have high on my list as its still neat to use the correct dice. Just nothing to anchor it to like the character sheets as you select what type of character is being used. NPCs are a bit more abstract as it can come from any source.
