Purgatory

Hrm. Can Liowan try to make a gate that opens to his vampire? Or is a shortcut in the right direction?
 
Afraid not; her power is for transition rather than travel. She can lay him to rest or set him loose, but that's it. Naraya might know more if you're willing to bring him with you a while. He seems lucid and even ashamed.
 
Holy shit it just occurred to me that I forgot I had a post on Sadria's thing.


*proceeds to apologize profusely for being silly.*
 
So, I feel I should clarify (upon re-reading): in my last post, the italics is thought and the next thing in quotes is whispered. (It seemed that the "he whispered" tag as written might be ambiguous :x and the italics is really something he wouldn't say out loud.)
 
Seemed clear enough to me. I usually use italics sans quotation marks for inner monologue.
 
Ok, good. Wanted to clarify in any case. *nods*


Also, for the fight, I'm not sure if this plan of action would require a check of some sort: basically, Linus' thinking is that the damage is done and only getting worse by letting them drag on the spear. So, I was going to have him throw himself against Leopold, driving him to the wall. I expect the guy holding the spear isn't expecting to have to leverage against the weight of two people, so the spear goes loose and Linus and Leopold are able to drop to the floor. Would this involve a strength check or something?
 
Hm. That could work, sure, no need for a strength check. I will warn that it will likely kill Leopold soon afterwards - tearing a barbed spear loose is going to do severe damage.


If you wanted to try and break the head of the spear off, that's a Strength/Athletics check +2 for using your sword. Leopold will still have it lodged in him, but in the event you can reach a surgeon it's a better case scenario than bleeding out on the floor.
 
Ok, Linus is going to spring up for a gut/side shot to the closest attacker from where he is on the floor... what do I roll?
 
Hey Grey, not really sure how to handle the combat rounds?? If I'm following things correctly, it's Berwick's action now? Followed by four mooks? Also, aren't Mam and Lise supposed to be throwing stuff from the back of the room? :P Will I be responsible for Leopold and Lionel's responses as well then?
 
I just wanted to see how Linus responded to the wound, and then yes, the others will go. I've already rolled the rest of the round.
 
@Grey, I'm not sure how to proceed. Am I capable of manipulating this beasty in front of me? Am I able to create one to fight it? If so, what should I do, mechanically, for each of those? And I assume I'll literally give birth to whatever I create.
 
You can command them to leave by rolling Bearing/Persuasion, Leadership, or Intimidation, gaining +1 die for each 2 Gossamer you choose to commit. You can temporarily create a fighting beastie by committing Gossamer to it relative to how powerful you want it to be, which you needn't literally birth. If you want to take your time, you can permamently spend Gossamer to start brewing a horrible little minion that can evolve and grow across the course of the game.


I'll write up a handy little guide to creating minions or items with Fae power shortly.
 
Would I possibly know how powerful the monster in front of me happens to be, or no?
 
You can't guess, I'm afraid - you weren't given supernatural senses this time. But if you're not using those eyes...

Who needs to see? :|
 
There is now a Timeline up. I suggest you check back often to see things added to it, if it interests you.
