[Castles Made of Sand] Castles Made of Sand Discussion

Bah... Damage in 1e. Same as 2e? In that case Soak was 10? Is there ping? Without I don't bother as I'm reduced to 0 for damage, with I do... I dunno... xD
 
Using 1e Power Combat, so you do Essence ping. Also, dunno where we're gonna find Orichalcum at short notice... :/

I'm thinking of pushing time ahead a bit forward and starting a new scene, despite there being a cliff-hanger. We'd establish how the last scene was resolved through me providing some details and then letting the rest come out in emergent play.


But, regardless of how, I think changing the scene and starting with a fresh one would be beneficial.
 
WlfSamurai, I might go with a renegade abyssal character if it's ok with you, I'm thinking of a proper way to incorporate the character and make him/her able to play nice with the other characters. One question though, were we using any special/custom rules on combo creation?
 
Wlf, Emily and I were discussing that in the intervening period between the sand-demon and the next scene, Masaru and Cadence have been holed up in what's left of Phios' townhouse while Rinaka does damage control using her social-fu that there couldn't possibly have been one of her servants bursting out into golden light and fighting against the giant sand thing. Masaru is attempting to teach Cadence who to read, write and play musical instruments, but Cadence's pride and embarrassment at not being able to grasp it as quickly as she learns other things means that they inevitably end up arguing.


And fighting.


A lot.


Captain Hesperus
 
@Lord-Leafar Okay, that can work if done right. No, not special rules on combos as of yet.


@Captain Hesperus Fantastic. Despite all that happened, I don't think people were noticing who was fighting the creature. Too much chaos was going on.


So, the next scene will take place in Phios' study with everyone present to hash out what to do next. It will be emergent which means you guys have the power to establish facts about anything in the past that's not already established, including the resolution of the last battle.


Originally, I had been aiming for the creature running out of power and being absorbed back into the young woman from which it came. She was the one inside the thing while you guys were fighting it. But, anything goes and I'm okay with nearly any explanation.


Does all that sound good?

Trade and conquer my friend! Also sand. I want to press into the desert trade lines and quite possibly establish a new hub to suck in all these nomads. Plus I am a bit peckish as of late and the conviction of those determined to live in the harsh desert is hard to pass up.
 
Mal, the name of Peleps Phios has drawn you to Raes. He's a prominent gem trader out of this small mining town.


Why is it that you wish to meet with this well known distributor named Phios?
 
He is the only one with contacts moving into the outside world, that and he positively reeks of emotion. Gem traders always do.
 
Do it.
