Because Chetney is so old, Travis rolls a D100 every in game morning to see whether or not Chetney dies in his sleep, if he lands on 100 chet's done. While playing as Grog, the morning rolled over and out of habit, he rolled the dice for chetney, and got 100. but because it was Grog's morning, and not Chetney, he *should* be okay.
They should have honored it! Have Chetney die off-screen based on this roll. Next time they go play BH, Matt asks Travis to step out, and starts narrating how everyone else is either in chaos dealing with his death or just in the middle of a funeral. I like Chet, but this is a unique opportunity to play through such a crazy scenario.
He also used to roll a d100 during vox machina when he got the belt of Dwarvenkind for a beard check(It was Matt's way of addressing beard growth of the item while reconciling the fact that goliaths are supposed to be hairless.)During the early episodes.
@@bigdrew565 Yeah, but The Belt Of Dwarven Kind is an established magic item, and having a 50% chance per day of growing a thick dwarf like beard is one of its actual abilities. Matt drawing it out over several sessions and in game days was his having the magic of the belt battling the natural hairless nature of goliaths. Chetney having to roll percentile dice every day to keep from dropping dead of a heart attack due to old age is something very character centric for Campaign 3.
On percentile dice (the type Travis is using), one die represents the tens value, while the other represents the singles value, with 00 + 0 = 100. Chetney rolls a d100 every time he would wake up to see if he died in his sleep. A 100 is the magic bullet. Fortunately for Chetney, Travis wasn't actually playing him at that moment. 😅
Apparently some people read it that way, which I didn't know before this, but normally 00 / 0 is 100. Meanwhile 10 / 0 is 10, 20 / 0 is 20, and so on and so forth. That's how the percentile dice are usually read, with the triple zeros being the only exception of being a 100 instead of 0 (since there normally isn't a 0 roll with any die).
That's how you get a 100 in a d100. Travis has this gimmick with Chetney that he rolls a d100 every night to see if he would die of old age in his sleep. And it happened, but as Grog, so he must be fine
In Campaign 3, Travis plays a character named Chetney, who is so old that he has a mechanic where every morning, Travis has to roll a d100 to see if he died in his sleep or not, with a 100 being the fatal roll. Currently, Travis is playing as his Campaign 1 character, Grog, however he rolled the dice anyway for the fun of it. He rolled a 100. Had he been playing Chetney, his character would be dead. 😅
If Travis has rolled triple 0s when playing Chetney, Chetney would have died. Basically Chetney is so old that he has to roll after every long rest to stay alive.
Travis is playing a character named Chetney that is extremely old. So throughout the campaign, every in-game morning Travis would roll a d100 to see whether or not Chetney died in his sleep during the night.

When the morning comes in-game, he rolls the d100 completely out of habit. Grog isn't in danger of dying in his sleep, and Chetney's not even there, so the roll doesn't matter. But it came up all zeroes. So they joke that Chetney just had a random chest pain or near-death experience.
@@Chaosghoul Counting it as a 10 makes no sense, though. I could understand thinking it's a 0 but 0 doesn't exist in a d100 roll (or any other die roll, usually).
@@backonlazer791 quite frankly, counting 00-0 as 10 makes more sense than it being counted as 100, it's just the *WAY* less conventional way of doing it, but it's more consistent.

This way you just set up the dice, roll and add, no weird definitions or redefinitions based on some rolls needed. And yes, I know how weird it looks that "50+0 makes 60"
@@Chaosghoul Thank you for the thorough explanation, however I will still agree to disagree. I understand what you mean but the system of 50 - 0 being 60 isn't any more logically consistent (in my opinion) and it's more cumbersome to use it like that at the table. Yes, it makes sense in a mathematical sense, 50 + 10 being 60, however that's not how the percentile dice are printed. The reason for there being a 0 in them instead of a 10 is for the percentile roll, after all. 50 + 0 = 50. The 00 - 0 = 100 makes one exception, while 00 - 0 = 10 makes ten exceptions, one at every ten increments. I think it's easier to read the dice when you already know which tenth you're dealing with by reading the first die and then specifying with the second, but if the second can increase it to another increment it can become kinda awkward situation of "I got fourty... no I got fifty". I would agree with you if you're using dice that actually say 10 instead of 0, though. New players are often confused and disappointed after rolling a 0, lol. But yea, I never really understood the logic behind it being 10 until you explained it so I really am thankful for you taking your time to explain it. I think both ways are fine although I think it's best if all players at the same table roll using the same method, not that players are rolling all that many d100 rolls, usually.
I feel it should be said that rolling 00 0 on d100 is actually a 10 you'd have to roll 90 0 for 100 but he did pick a 1 in a 100 chance so 00 0 killing chet is perfectly fine
That's incorrect. 00 0 is 100. There's already a 10 which is 0 and 10. You can't have two possible 10s in a 1 in 100 chance. Also, 0 and 90 is just 90.
@@cassandragidney7682 that'd make it possible to either roll a zero or only 10-99 I think I'm just explaining poorly but 00 is the tens place (being 0 here and 90 being 90) then the second die fills in the ones place (I know its confusing since it can be a 10 but its because it covers 1-10 in the ones place) I think the confusion is because its weird to think a die can equal 0
PHB p. 6: “Two 0s represent 100. Some ten-sided dice are numbered in tens (00, 10, 20, and so on), making it easier to distinguish the tens digit from the ones digit. In this case, a roll of 70 and 1 is 71, and 00 and 0 is 100.”
@@gunnyollie1978 You are misunderstanding the fundamental function of how percentile dice work. Yes, one can argue that 00 and 0 is 0 in certain systems, but in D&D it is 100. I will accept that if the system you are running is a 0-99 system instead of 1-100. While rolling percentile dice it works like this. They are not die rolls alone, but representatives of the ones and tens places. the 00 and 0 is indicating that there is a 0 in the 10s, a 0 in the 1s and the only number within the system of a 1%-100% system with those numbers is: 100. 00 and 0= 100 00 and 1-9= 1-9 10 and 0-9= 10-19 20 and 0-9=20-29 30 and 0-9=30-39 40 and 0-9=40-49 50 and 0-9=50-59 60 and 0-9=60-69 (nice) 70 and 0-9=70-79 80 and 0-9=80-89 90 and 0-9=90-99 This is the way the dice were originally designed. This is the only way they should be interpreted, as other made-up systems fundamentally misunderstand the nature of it. This isn't really a "d100" in true name. When paired this way, they are percentile dice.
@@gunnyollie1978 It's really just taking the roll of zero and stating that its 100 instead of shifting everything over. Since you can't have a rolled 0 the 00 0 roll needs to be something and 100 is the only thing without a rolled value.

The reason for there being a 0 in them instead of a 10 is for the percentile roll, after all. 50 + 0 = 50.
The 00 - 0 = 100 makes one exception, while 00 - 0 = 10 makes ten exceptions, one at every ten increments. I think it's easier to read the dice when you already know which tenth you're dealing with by reading the first die and then specifying with the second, but if the second can increase it to another increment it can become kinda awkward situation of "I got fourty... no I got fifty". I would agree with you if you're using dice that actually say 10 instead of 0, though. New players are often confused and disappointed after rolling a 0, lol.
But yea, I never really understood the logic behind it being 10 until you explained it so I really am thankful for you taking your time to explain it. I think both ways are fine although I think it's best if all players at the same table roll using the same method, not that players are rolling all that many d100 rolls, usually.
fun fact thats a 10
I feel it should be said that rolling 00 0 on d100 is actually a 10 you'd have to roll 90 0 for 100 but he did pick a 1 in a 100 chance so 00 0 killing chet is perfectly fine
That's incorrect. 00 0 is 100. There's already a 10 which is 0 and 10. You can't have two possible 10s in a 1 in 100 chance. Also, 0 and 90 is just 90.
@@cassandragidney7682 that'd make it possible to either roll a zero or only 10-99 I think I'm just explaining poorly but 00 is the tens place (being 0 here and 90 being 90) then the second die fills in the ones place (I know its confusing since it can be a 10 but its because it covers 1-10 in the ones place) I think the confusion is because its weird to think a die can equal 0
PHB p. 6: “Two 0s represent 100. Some ten-sided dice are numbered in tens (00, 10, 20, and so on), making it easier to distinguish the tens digit from the ones digit. In this case, a roll of 70 and 1 is 71, and 00 and 0 is 100.”
@@gunnyollie1978 You are misunderstanding the fundamental function of how percentile dice work.
Yes, one can argue that 00 and 0 is 0 in certain systems, but in D&D it is 100. I will accept that if the system you are running is a 0-99 system instead of 1-100.
While rolling percentile dice it works like this. They are not die rolls alone, but representatives of the ones and tens places. the 00 and 0 is indicating that there is a 0 in the 10s, a 0 in the 1s and the only number within the system of a 1%-100% system with those numbers is: 100.
00 and 0= 100
00 and 1-9= 1-9
10 and 0-9= 10-19
20 and 0-9=20-29
30 and 0-9=30-39
40 and 0-9=40-49
50 and 0-9=50-59
60 and 0-9=60-69 (nice)
70 and 0-9=70-79
80 and 0-9=80-89
90 and 0-9=90-99
This is the way the dice were originally designed. This is the only way they should be interpreted, as other made-up systems fundamentally misunderstand the nature of it. This isn't really a "d100" in true name. When paired this way, they are percentile dice.
@@gunnyollie1978 It's really just taking the roll of zero and stating that its 100 instead of shifting everything over. Since you can't have a rolled 0 the 00 0 roll needs to be something and 100 is the only thing without a rolled value.
