Seriously, go ahead, just so long as its not another bump in your Essence level.

...damnit





No but really, my essence is probably as high as it needs to be by now. :tongue:

 

[Esbilon]

I was not watching the forum! That was a mistake!

 

[Sherwood]

Do you guys realize that come January, this game will be a year old?

 

[Esbilon]

January's still a bit off, but no I did not!

 

[Lord-Leafar]

Awesome!


I have enough experience for 1 more charm....what should I get I wonder. I'm thinking I should start looking into high essence custom territory.

 

[Esbilon]

Ooooh, I need 8 more xp. Then I can steal the Imperial Bureaucracy from Mnemon

 

[Sherwood]

Don't worry, you'll get more points soon enough.

 

[Esbilon]

I bought the following


8 Investigation 2->4


8 Evidence-Discerning Method


8 2nd Bureaucracy Excellency


4 Bureaucracy 1->3


8 Speed the Wheels


12 Bureaucracy 3->5


So Rose is now far more Eclipsey than she were before. And with another 8, I get Halo of Ministerial Dominion and then... Then I shall rule the WORLD! MWUHAHAHHA!

 

[Sherwood]

Am I the only one that feels a slight chill in the air when you read that? lol

 

[Lord-Leafar]

*Initiate Usurpation 2.0*

 

[Esbilon]

@Sherwood Do I have enough information on Mnemon from Ejava's and Sash's descriptions, her taking the Throne now and the letter to use Evidence-Discerning Method on her?


Also, I don't think that single charm will let me conquer the world. It'll help, though

 

[Sherwood]

I am going to go ahead and let you stunt an effort to use EDM on her.

 

[Esbilon]

Does everyone of significance in the command tent know that we're Celestials?

 

[Sherwood]

Yes. Rose has worked her magic on all the parties of note.

 

[Esbilon]

From everything you have heard about Mnemon, she is not above lying, cheating, and backstabbing to get what she wants.

Indeed. I think this little piece of British comedy gives quite an accurate picture of Mnemon's stance on morality.

Sir Humphrey: What I want is irrelevant, Bernard, it's up to you - what do you want?


Bernard: I want to have a clear conscience.


Sir Humphrey: A clear conscience?


Bernard: Yes!


Sir Humphrey: I see. And when did you acquire this taste for luxuries?

 

[Esbilon]

Just how "openly" are we walking around as solars? I was thinking of playing at being Ejava's escort until we're only around people in the know, that is Mnemon and her closest advisors.

 

[Sherwood]

It was just the comment made by Duncan. You can pose as a part of Ejava's entourage if you'd like.

 

[Esbilon]

Mmm, between Ejava's fame and force of personality and Rose's golden tongue, I'm not sure we really have that much to fear so long as we don't rub it in.


Mmm, Rose has a Deadly Transformation Armor (from Wonders), I don't suppose there's any plausible way of hiding that under clothing... Oh Well, I suppose I'll make do.

 

[Esbilon]

@Sherwood I don't suppose Ejava has Within One Mind (Linguistics pinnacle charm), it's so very convenient for situations like this, and for coordinating between officers or a small elite unit in combat.

 

[Sherwood]

Off the top of my head I am not familiar with that Charm. I'm assuming that it allows psychic communication; does it work one on one, or can it include groups? I'll have to check out the write up.

 

[Sherwood]

Ok, just looked at the Charm. It would make sense for the Roseblack to have it, so, yes, she does. She would have activated the Charm prior to going on the limo, so any observations you'd like to make to her as far back as that can be made. Just make sure you differentiate the mind-to-mind communications and normal verbal talk for me.

 

[Esbilon]

Cool. Dragonblooded Linuistics is awesome. Almost better than Solar Linguistics, but hard to compare.

 

[Lord-Leafar]

Am I the only one that thinks this could be a great next adventure for this game?

Spoiler

As the Ebon Dragon stands side by side with his beautiful bride, an Infernal of Ceceylne stands in front of them, addressing the ceremony that unfolds. Soon, the demonic minister speaks the usual formalities "If anyone objects to this wedding, speak now or forever hold their peace" A dreadful silence spreads through the hall, all the demons shivering in fear at the thought of the Yozi's anger should anyone interrupt, and just as the Infernal is about to speak, the impossible happens...


Throwing aside the dead husks of their demonic disguises, a powerful circle of Solars, Lunars and Dragon Blooded reveal themselves to the shock and horror of everyone involved


"Stop this wedding!!!"

 

[Esbilon]

Hehehe, cute. But Infernal wedding ceremonies do not have moments of silence. Because, you know, there's Adorjan.

 

[Esbilon]

@Sherwood, I should point out that Rose has had Judge's Ear going all the time. Forgot to mention that, sorry.
