[Nightmares of the Second Age] The Daily Scribe

[MrSerious]

I haven't checked on Skadi's thread and now I don't want to after those comments

 

[Esbilon]

Gogo Boondock Saints

 

[MrSerious]

hm?

 

[Esbilon]

Skadi is going all Boondock Saints on the jungle tribes.

 

[Arynne]

Slightly less use of the f-word.

 

[Esbilon]

There is very little f'ing in the final scene. More guns than Skadi used though.

 

[MrSerious]

Ive never actually seen boondock saints

 

[Esbilon]

Go do so. It is full of hillarity.

 

[Arynne]

Skadi don't need any steenkin' guns...wait, that's a different movie.

 

[Esbilon]

Sherwood would you like me to roll my "boozing up the locals and making them talk" roll, and if so with which stats? I'm angling for intelligence + socialize, but manipulation or investigation may be more appropriate.

 

[Sherwood]

No need. With your die pools, you'll be able to get a good idea of the status of the city and a lot of offers from the guys, and some girls, to have you join them in bed. I'm just making a series of posts in another game, and I'll get to your scene shortly.

 

[Esbilon]

awesome

 

[JayTee]

Maha, did you see the post I made talking to Storm just before the JB roll?

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

Yes. L'Ron can handle himself and will ruin Storm's surprise. Storm's response to Tiger was posted before JB on page 3.


Sherwood, Storm has Essence Sight active through his Armor, which pierces through anything less dense than 1-inch thick solid material (specifically including fog/clouds). So, he should be able to spot a body, dematerialized or not, or any other form within the fog. Is there anything?

 

[Sherwood]

No. The fog itself is the enemy. There are city guardians off in the distance that are starting to activate from the explosion of your first attack, but they are no where near you right now.

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

So.. There's nothing to target whatsoever. Something tells me the fog as an enemy is an illusion itself...

Or a demon.

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

It supposedly has E6. Eristrufa are E3, maybe E4. This is supposed to be some kind of forsaken god, but it very well could be an illusion caused by the miasma as written in Compass: Scavenger Lands.


Sherwood, could you at least verify if this thing is actually real or not?

 

[Sherwood]

I will tell you that the fog is the spirit, and it will be able to engage you even though it is mostly mist. You'll need Charms or weapons that can hit a desolid form to damage it. The human form that you saw before was just a avatar it made to try and spread its evil.

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

Oooh. So he is dematerialized. No biggie, that makes my action that much more simple.

 

[Feantari]

Well, not dematerialized, or you wouldn't see/feel fog. Just some other form. Like a mist shintai or something.


edit: I recommend fire.

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

Close enough. Storm won't miss again.

 

[Sherwood]

I had to come up with something to be a threat to you guys, with the buckets of dice and awesome attacks you are capable of. This mist-monster will not be easy.

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

Really? Did you devise custom Charms for it?

 

[Sherwood]

Its big thing is that it can attack while desolidified, making it hard to hurt except with Charms that affect spirits, but it can hurt you. Also, it has a buttload of health levels, since it is so large.
