Astropath Perils of the Warp question...

[HPLustcraft 1]

Hello! Newbie GM here with what is the first of likely many silly questions I should probably already know...

The advantage that allows an Astropath Transcendent to roll an 'additional 1d10' when rolling on the Perils of the Warp table(s), how exactly does that work?

Does the player roll 3, and choose two, then choose which is ones and which is 10s? Or does it work differently than I thought?

For instance, last night my player rolled a 1, 8 and 4. Should he then be able to say '14' is his base Perils table number?

Oh, and he Pushed, so obviously he had to add 15 to whatever number is rolled.

Thanks for any help...I am a bit overwhelmed! :-)

It's badly worded. I'd say:

 - The astropath rolls a d100 as normal.

 - Then he rolls an extra d10, which can replace either the tens or ones die in the d100 roll.

Whew! OK, thank you!

My Astropath thanks you as well...He loooooooves to 'Push' his powers (Currently Force Bolt for the most part) but the rest of the party is getting freaked out by what results (i.e. Darkness within 3d10 metres) and what MIGHT result (i.e. Face eating Daemons)...

Of course, it's only a matter of time before he rolls and all 3 are above 6-7...*WICKED GRIN*

You can also roll 3 dices as a d1000 and then he can remove one dice to get a number between 1-100.

Wow that makes perils of the warp useless, I really prefer DH psy rules

Go look at the trait Soul-Bound in the DH core rulebook. You will find it behaves identically in reducing the danger of perils, the only difference is that in DH the PC psykers don't (usually) get soul bound.
