Oh I see! Like the Solar mirror. But it's reflexive - you can choose to use it or not after you roll. You rolled 6/10, so above average, and no 10s to keep - why not choose to keep your dice? You just felt lucky? 😄

Why only four successes? I see a lot more than that in your roll 🤔

Mechanically I was asking if you'd be willing to Aid me. You would roll your intimidation pool, and the successes would grant me extra dice. It's not unreasonable to ask it also count as a separate intimidation check to instill a tie of fear, though.

Scion marvels at these wonders of intellect and artifice. Manufacted Exalted! The power of the titans who built the world could be hers. Such is her visible excitement as they descend the ramp she almost fails entirely to listen as the first of them speaks. She has a little bit of trouble with...

"You might have considered concealment before you began construction of earthworks, Deathbringer," observes Scion dryly as she passes atop the thone on her bone behemoth's back. "They have quite obviously spotted you now, and have landed to parley. Pleasantly and unexpectedly civilized for an...

You can probably still achieve the same effect - use Lore or something to declare this Shadowland has a ruin in it with ancient magic that, when activated, fills the surrounding area with an obscuring mist. Then use Occult to activate the ruin. It's a Sorcerous/Necromantic Working someone else...

Sorcerous Workings have an interval for their extended tests of one week - they aren't really something you can do in 10 minutes without some sort of incredibly powerful Charm/Artifact/etc. Spells are generally 'things you can do in one scene with Sorcery'. You could maybe stunt some sort of...

It was wildly ambitious of me to suggest I could update with guests and tight deadlines at work 😂. Once they leave and this release is done for sure I'll be back at it, but it turns out guests want to do things at night while visiting!

"Incense, perhaps?" the Scion muses as the Deathbringer approaches. "If they're burning their dead, their flesh is as strange as their souls. It doesn't seem to be a weapon. You shall soon have a more fruitful source to question."

The Scion makes the journey astride her throne on the back her many-legged bone behemoth. Behind her marches her talon (125) of four-armed skeletal war constructs, half again as tall as a man, carrying immense bows and slashing swords, marching in perfect serried ranks of five. It takes them...

Wow work has just been crazy this week. I do want to unblock things and get everyone on to the scene they want next. We've got guests flying in tomorrow, but I'll try to find time to update this weekend if I can. In the meantime, feel free to move yourselves into any useful scenes and make up...

Yes, they do mention it equally applies to Abyssal mates. Sherwood and Psychie want to go to the Manse. We can either do split time - run the scene where news gets discussed and the other scene where people go off to their respective destinations - or gloss over the news sharing and character...

Oops. I forgot you bought an artifact. You can have found that along your journey to the underworld if you like. You passed through the labyrinth, so who knows what the Neverborn contrived for you to find.

Okay! So it looks like characters still need to exchange some information, but I'll give you the choice of whether you want to play it out in character or sweep forward. We can have a scene where Sayuri gathers anyone who wants to attend in private to share information and make plans, or you...

Scion looks at Voice, explaining as if to a child, "You need prepare nothing. Great powers treat with silken glove and mailed fist. The Knight is the silken glove. My constructs are the mailed fist. We do not yet know their culture, but power is almost universally respected, and without respect...

This week and last have been super busy, but I hope to get back to this tomorrow morning! Apologies for all the delays. I wish it were easier to write on my phone 🤔 Then I could post on the train. Phone typing is awful, though.

"Yes, of course we approach these people as friends," Scion waves dismissively, the other suggestions unworthy of consideration. "It's complete folly, not to mention a collossal waste of time, to attempt to start a war with an entire continent having done no preparation or intelligence...

It was a great decision!

Build fortifications? She picks up one of the 'soulgems' and examines it with a mixture of intense loathing and fascinated curiosity. "Deathbringer. In your immaculately organized library, there are, as you are well aware, sections on war, strategy, tactics, logistics, and command. Given you're...

Tonight or tomorrow morning for sure! Sorry about that.
