Default Re: Use for R\'lyeh void summons ?

Just an FYI, if something has a probability of 5%, it does _not_ have an expected value of 20. IIRC, the standard Expected Value formula is .7/p, where p is the probability of the event. Therefore, if p=.05, then the Expected Value is 14. For p=.02, the EV should be 35.

(The Expected Value is the number of trials expected before a true result occurs.)
