[Nightmares of the Second Age] The Daily Scribe

[Arynne]

Oh, and pretty much everybody at the Bureau of Nature would help. *shutting up now*

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

Especially in Heaven. Sidereals are booked as it is - having informants all throughout the Celestial Bureaucracy will bring us much closer in power to the Bronze Faction in regards to the support the receive.

 

[Esbilon]

I want to go after the knowledge goddess first. We sorely lack in spy-based infrastructure outside of our resident Night Caste and Sidereal allies. Good to have someone keeping an eye on things for us.

Knowledge is great, breathing is better. She's high on the list of second round gods, but she's not on the first round imo.

 

[JayTee]

Split up and do both at once?

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

Split up and do both at once?

Kinky.

 

[Arynne]

Leaving us vulnerable to fate ninjas?


This is a big concern for most of us, I've noticed...

 

[Esbilon]

I have an aversion to splitting the party. But maybe, particularly if we regroup with the others first.


Mmm, then again. Yu-Shan is the size of the Blessed Isle, that is HUGE.


I think I'll stick with my original proposal of going straight to one of the most powerful gods on our lists and asking for their protection. Maybe, maybe, we could send a single person off to see one of the others, like Luxana.

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

I'd personally stick together if you don't get a Gold Faction escort for the lone individual if I had a part in this. There's no telling what the Bronze might do, and since they may even consider attacking you as a group, splitting up without Sidereal support could land the loner in a lot of trouble.

 

[JayTee]

Tiger has the most mobility/not dying charms out of everyone, so he could take the risk and split off from the rest of the party. Reflexive-Sidestep Technique + Seven Shadow Evasion + Leaping Dodge Method + Soaring Crane Leap means he's pretty hard to assassinate/pin down.

 

[Arynne]

So, our list is


Ryzala, Lady of Paperwork


Luxana, Goddess of Knowledge


Tachi-Kun, Central God of War, God of Exalted Combat


Ahlat, Southern God of War and Cattle


Ghataru, Shogun-Regent of the Bureau of Seasons


Zutaka, Daimyo of Blizzards


Wun Ja, God of the Shining Metropolis


Jagalza, Satrap of the Realm


Tarendar, Satrap of the North


...and most of the Bureau of Nature, including its head, Flashing Peak.

 

[Esbilon]

I fail to see how it's worth the risk, and there are foes in Yu-Shan who aren't just going to try to give you interesting new holes in your body.

 

[JayTee]

That list looks good to me.

 

[Esbilon]

So, our list is
Ryzala


Tachi-Kun


Ahlat


Ghataru


Zutaka


Wun Ja


Jagalza


Luxana


Tarendar


...and most of the Bureau of Nature, including its head, Flashing Peak.

I'm not sure if that list is supposed to be prioritized, but yeah, something like that.

 

[JayTee]

I fail to see how it's worth the risk, and there are foes in Yu-Shan who aren't just going to try to give you interesting new holes in your body.

I may or may not in theory have the potential inclination to hypothetically fight a supposed sidereal elder >.>


...I should join the White Veil Society. If it existed.

 

[Arynne]

If someone has to split off from the group, I suggest Skadi. When all's said and done, she is only a Lunar, and her death wouldn't achieve much for the Bronze Faction (other than irking Luna, which wouldn't help their position).

 

[Esbilon]

Hehe, I'm not worried about a sidereal elder killing you in a fair fight. I'm worried about a trio of sidereal elders cheating.

A fair point. I still fail to see how anything other than ensuring that we live to tell the tale is in such a rush.

Scooby Doo is clearly Skadi, exasperated at the stupid overconfident Solar

 

[Esbilon]

I think we're ready to move this IC. If no one protests, Rose will suggest Ryzala in a few minutes.

 

[JayTee]

I'm good to go

 

[Arynne]

So am I...


...I wonder about the Haslanti Gods now. They may have existed back in the First Age, but they held different positions. It woulod be a surprise to our Northern PCs to find out what they've been up to...


*makes note of that*

 

[Arynne]

...also, are we sure our characters are capable of dealing with Dolores Umbridge without getting testy?

 

[Esbilon]

Temperence 5, Willpower 10. I think I'm good.

 

[JayTee]

Temperance 3, Willpower 10. I may grind my teeth, but I'll manage.

 

[Arynne]

Temperance 3, Willpower 7.


The Ice Queen is actually the least calm and controlled of the three.
