Bars, Bending:

To find out the % chance to bend a set of 1/2" bars, see the following chart:

 

Condition
of bars:         Chance vs. Strength:
Poor:            (Strength ÷ 2 (-1) = % chance to bend bars successfully.
Fair:             (Strength ÷ 3 (-2) = % chance to bend bars successfully.
Good:           (Strength ÷ 4 (-3) = % chance to bend bars successfully.
Very good:   (Strength ÷ 5 (-4) = % chance to bend bars successfully.
Excellent:    (Strength ÷ 6 (-5) = % chance to bend bars successfully.
Superb:        (Strength ÷7 (-6) = % chance to bend bars successfully.

 

Example:
A character with a strength of 37 attempts to bend a set of bars in "Fair" condition.
He would have a 10% chance of success (37 ÷ 3 = 12 (-2) = 10% chance

 

See: "Notes: 3"

 

Notes:
1
Only one single attempt can be made to bend a set of bars per person or creature.

 

2
All calculations will be rounded down to the nearest % (i.e., A person with a strength of 31 attempts to bend bars in “Poor” condition: 31 ÷ 2 = 15 with 1 remaining. Drop the 1 = 15% chance to successfully bent the bars).

 

3
For every 1/2" more thick a set of bars is, the % chance will be cut by 1/2 (rounded down).
