Dawn of the Third Age

Session Start (Anshu:#celestialdeliberativeOOC): Fri Feb 18 12:53:22 2011 -0700
[12:53] *** Anshu has joined #celestialdeliberativeOOC
[12:53] *** Topic on #celestialdeliberativeOOC is: Exalted 2nd: Dawn of the Third Age / OOC Channel / Next session on the 18th of February
[12:53] *** Topic set by dakkareth (8 hours ago at 5:01 AM)
[12:53] *** ChanServ sets mode +q Anshu
[12:53] *** ChanServ sets mode +o Anshu
[12:53] <dakkareth> the scene that's up on the wiki happened between the fight and the last session, I thought?
[12:53] <~Anshu> hello hello
[12:53] * dakkareth waves
[12:53] <Brazen_Sand> No no, this is another scene
[12:53] <Brazen_Sand> hi Taurus
[12:54] <Brazen_Sand> Look, Brazen and Wandering are having a kid
[12:55] <dakkareth> Ah, I was unaware you'd defined further points on the timeline
[12:55] <Brazen_Sand> It was after the Yu-Shan thing
[12:56] <dakkareth> so I couldn't know about possible collisions (or paradoxes :p)
[12:56] <Brazen_Sand> That's the Pattern Spiders' problem, not mine! : P
[12:56] <wandering> opps did we just piss of the Pattern Spiders... well more than usual at least
[12:56] <Brazen_Sand> Brazen is outside Fate. He gives them more work wherever he goes
[12:58] <Brazen_Sand> Anyway, we could just handwave travel time and say that tehy met in An-Teng somehow
[12:59] <Brazen_Sand> Maybe Brazen and Snow got there first and the others joined them later?
[12:59] <~Anshu> hmm
[12:59] <Brazen_Sand> Brazen, of course, told them to give him the BEST ACCOMODATIONS POSSIBLE!
[13:00] <wandering> An-teng is southern semi-pirate port right?
[13:01] <~Anshu> it's on the southwest coast
[13:01] <dakkareth> used to be a favourite dynastic vacation spot
[13:01] <Brazen_Sand> yup
[13:01] <Brazen_Sand> I dunno how it's fared in the last 10 years though
[13:02] <Brazen_Sand> or how the Lintha are doing...I guess we'll find out
[13:02] <dakkareth> probably the same, just with different VIP tourists :p
[13:02] <dakkareth> apart from the regions eaten by the Wyld, naturally
[13:03] <~Anshu> that's what I'm thinking
[13:03] <Brazen_Sand> right
[13:04] <~Anshu> *does some last-minute reading*
[13:05] <Brazen_Sand> I imagine that An-Teng has sort of this swampy rainforest thing going
[13:05] <Brazen_Sand> ecology wise
[13:08] <wandering> quick question for xp we are using solar costs right? what will a new knack cost then? (Its 11xp default)
[13:08] <~Anshu> Knacks cost the same as Charms for its Attribute
[13:08] <Brazen_Sand> Knacks don't correspond to attributes, I believe
[13:09] <dakkareth> they do have attribute prereqs, thouhg
[13:09] <wandering> by default they are flat cost, but I'm happy to get a discount on some
[13:09] *** dakkareth is now known as Nomoe_Hideaki
[13:10] *** Virgil is now known as Bright_Snow
[13:13] <Brazen_Sand> that'd be nice
[13:14] <~Anshu> what would be nice?
[13:14] <Brazen_Sand> Getting a discount on favoured attribute knacks
[13:14] <Brazen_Sand> *shrug*
[13:14] <~Anshu> oh
[13:15] <Brazen_Sand> mm
[13:16] <Brazen_Sand> This is a useful link
[13:16] <Brazen_Sand> (Link: http://wiki.white-wolf.com/exalted/index.php?title=An-Teng)http://wiki.white-wolf.com/exalted/index.php?title=An-Teng
[13:17] <~Anshu> heh
[13:17] <~Anshu> "Like gods, the Exalted are not gainsaid. Like natural disasters, they are endured until they go away."
[13:20] <Brazen_Sand> Nice, Dakk! : )
[13:22] <~Anshu> *ponders* I wonder how long it would take for Brazen, Snow, and Wandering to reach An-Teng...
[13:22] <Brazen_Sand> it takes *plot* days
[13:22] <~Anshu> :P
[13:23] <wandering> Do any of them have travel charms? other than the Lunars shapeshifting?
[13:23] <Brazen_Sand> That's the most efficient answer
[13:23] <Brazen_Sand> Brazen can travel really fast and I'm not sure if he'd even get tired
[13:24] <Bright_Snow> Snow can travel stupidly fast but she is more interested in seeing everything in between
[13:24] <Bright_Snow> And is therefore in no rush
[13:24] <~Anshu> a few weeks, then?
[13:24] <wandering> seems about right
[13:24] <Brazen_Sand> Sure
[13:25] <Brazen_Sand> With a day in between when the Sidereals interviewed Brazen
[13:26] <~Anshu> now the only question is which part of An-teng you're heading for
[13:27] <Brazen_Sand> but the exact date isn't very important
[13:27] <wandering> I suspect that is up to Bright Snow mostly
[13:27] <~Anshu> the mountainous High Lands, the hilly and forested Middle Lands, or the swampy, jungly Shore Lands?
[13:28] <Brazen_Sand> Considering that we came up from the South, we'd probably reach the Jade Plum Citadel or...the Shadowland first
[13:29] <Brazen_Sand> Which parts are farthest South?
[13:30] <~Anshu> Jade Plum Citadel looks like it's the furthest south
[13:30] <~Anshu> also the furthest East
[13:30] <wandering> Sounds like where we are likely to arrive then
[13:31] <Brazen_Sand> Sure
[13:34] <Nomoe_Hideaki> (sorry for spamming the channel now, I didn't get around to putting that into the IC last session)
[13:34] <Brazen_Sand> Sooo...scene-setting?
[13:34] <Brazen_Sand> Ah
[13:34] <~Anshu> I'm getting there
[13:35] <Brazen_Sand> They could probably see Brazen coming from far off
[13:35] <Brazen_Sand> Depending on how tall the trees are, he might actually be taller then the treeline
[13:37] <~Anshu> right
[13:39] <Brazen_Sand> I kinda wish some stuff was figured out before the game had started >_>
[13:40] <~Anshu> sorry
[13:40] <wandering> I susppect some could only be decided once we knew when people appeared and where they where going
[13:40] <wandering> which can be awkward to catch everyone at once
[13:41] <Brazen_Sand> yeah, some people are a lot harder to catch online then others.
[13:42] <wandering> *whistles innocently*
[13:42] <Brazen_Sand> eh, you're not so bad
[13:42] <Brazen_Sand> I pretty much end up being the messenger between folks cause I'm on more often then anyone else, it seems
[13:42] <Brazen_Sand> or at least at a more varied time-frame
[13:42] <Brazen_Sand> Also I'm super-nosy >_>
[13:43] <Brazen_Sand> Holy shit Dakk @_@
[13:43] <Nomoe_Hideaki> what?
[13:43] <Brazen_Sand> WALL OF TEXT X_X
[13:44] <Nomoe_Hideaki> sry :p
[13:44] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Did it all come through ok or did anything cut off?
[13:44] <Brazen_Sand> Man, I probably could've done that in one post
[13:44] <Brazen_Sand> Nomoe called Ruby to figure out what was going on in Estasia
[13:44] <~Anshu> it all came through okay, i think
[13:44] <wandering> yeah nothing looks cut off
[13:44] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Cool. And yeah, Nomoe isn't much for simple :p
[13:45] <Nomoe_Hideaki> All of this is before the present scene, btw.
[13:45] <wandering> why or why deosn't IRC warn you if you put too much txt in =(
[13:45] <Nomoe_Hideaki> So it would be nice to know what came up on Nomoe's inquiries before jumping into it :)
[13:45] <~Anshu> right
[13:45] <~Anshu> hang on a sec
[13:45] <Nomoe_Hideaki> And 'several weeks later' means that Nomoe is done in Gem and free do do whatever, right?
[13:46] <~Anshu> yes
[13:47] <~Anshu> do oyu want Nomoe's answers here or in the IC?
[13:48] <Nomoe_Hideaki> IC would be good
[13:48] <Brazen_Sand> Maybe you should PM them to him?
[13:48] <Brazen_Sand> Since only he knows
[13:48] <~Anshu> that would work too
[13:50] <Brazen_Sand> I think that the concensus was to follow this Engine of Extinction lead thing
[13:50] <~Anshu> mhm
[13:50] <Brazen_Sand> When I spoke to people
[13:50] <Brazen_Sand> Except Ziyad, who I can't get ahold of
[13:50] <Brazen_Sand> *couldn't
[13:52] <Brazen_Sand> That must be one fast airship
[13:53] <Nomoe_Hideaki> I figured since you'd been traveling slowly to see everything ...
[13:54] <Brazen_Sand> This is what I get for spending that day partying at the Cerulean Manse in Yu-Shan x_x
[13:55] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Basically Nomoe once he got away from Gem followed Brazen's trail long enough to make out a likely target and then fly straight there, making sure he'd be seen enough to make sure they knew he'd be ahead (and if desired, could go somewhere else to avoid him)
[13:55] <wandering> Someone needs to drink ahh taste test the celestiral wine
[13:55] <Bright_Snow> Away from Brazen
[13:56] <Bright_Snow> Though feel free to join her in slipping away
[13:56] <wandering> so I see
[13:56] <Brazen_Sand> Fine! I'll just stand here and pose for the benefit of An-Teng's citizens
[13:56] <Brazen_Sand> *stands and flexes in front of perplexed villagers*
[13:59] <Brazen_Sand> Hrmph!
[14:02] <Bright_Snow> You can narrate catching up then as we reach the outskirts
[14:02] <Brazen_Sand> I just did
[14:02] <wandering> Brazen should get a sashi-mono with not a badguy written on it
[14:02] <~Anshu> heh
[14:03] <Brazen_Sand> When the Sun finally makes me a non-CoD
[14:03] <Brazen_Sand> I'm seriously planning on getting a picture taken of him and Sol Invictus together shaking hands or fist-bumping or something
[14:03] <Brazen_Sand> and then have him NEVER TAKE IT OFF HIS NECK
[14:03] <Brazen_Sand> Like it'd be on a necklace
[14:03] <Bright_Snow> I didn't mean you Brazen
[14:04] <Nomoe_Hideaki> mmh, is the An-Teng capital the sort of place one might have a winter residence?
[14:04] <Brazen_Sand> Of course, it's a great vacation spot!
[14:04] <~Anshu> well, the Tengese aren't really fond of foreigners at the best of times, and Brazen is both monstrous-looking and an Exalt, which means they don't have a choice but to put up with him :P
[14:05] <~Anshu> and I think there are like three capitals, one for each Prince
[14:05] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah, but the whole point is that other people's perceptions are important to him, even when he goes like "HATERS GONNA HATE"
[14:05] <Brazen_Sand> He's complex
[14:05] <wandering> 3 princes and capitals? wow that would make politics intresting I imaigne
[14:05] <Brazen_Sand> And hey, no one probably even noticed the Lunars, with Brazen taking everyone's attention
[14:06] <Brazen_Sand> So yeah, YOU'RE WELCOME, SNOW! : P
[14:06] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Mmh, the princes are what, mortals?
[14:07] <~Anshu> yes.
[14:08] <Brazen_Sand> But they're also figureheads
[14:08] <~Anshu> sooorta
[14:09] <Brazen_Sand> yeah
[14:09] <Brazen_Sand> So I think Brazen is at the marketplace
[14:10] <Brazen_Sand> Or somewhere...I dunno
[14:10] <Brazen_Sand> Do I need to roll to follow it?
[14:11] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Nomoe will be residing in his new mansion in the city. Which is of course showing the House NOmoe Mon and flying Hideaki's personal banner.
[14:11] <Brazen_Sand> And they say Brazen is flashy
[14:12] <Brazen_Sand> At least when he leaves he doesn't leave his logo on everything
[14:12] <Brazen_Sand> : P
[14:12] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Being ludicrously rich has to be good for something :p
[14:12] <Brazen_Sand> awwww man
[14:12] <Brazen_Sand> That was interesting >_<
[14:13] <~Anshu> sorry
[14:14] <Brazen_Sand> it's okay
[14:15] <Brazen_Sand> I'll just go VISIT THE PRINCE
[14:15] <wandering> poor Prince is not going to know what to do
[14:15] <Brazen_Sand> *awesomeface*
[14:15] <Brazen_Sand> Or whoever is in the Citadel
[14:16] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Prince's palace sends an emergency runner to Nomoe "Please come quickly, that thing you said might happen ... it did! And we need hlep!"
[14:16] <Brazen_Sand> XD
[14:16] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Come to think of it Nomoe probably did warn the prince that Brazen might be showing up.
[14:17] <Brazen_Sand> Most likely
[14:17] <Brazen_Sand> "Just compliment his biceps and stuff, you'll be fine."
[14:17] <Nomoe_Hideaki> He would after all have introduced himself upon arriving, as is only polite - he may stand a number of steps above the prince, but he *is* the lawful ruler of the region, so ...
[14:18] <Brazen_Sand> What about satraps?
[14:18] <Brazen_Sand> Would they even still be valid?
[14:18] <Brazen_Sand> Wait a minute...they horribly oppress the people of An-Teng
[14:18] <Brazen_Sand> INJUSTICE SENSE TINGLES! <>_<>
[14:18] <wandering> oh noes
[14:19] <Brazen_Sand> RAAAAAAARGH COLONIALISM IS AN INHERENTLY EXPLOITATIVE SOCIAL CONSTRUCTION!! *SMASH*
[14:20] <~Anshu> XD is that like feminist hulk?
[14:20] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Cue Nomoe getting in Brazen's way. Again :p
[14:20] <~Anshu> (Link: http://twitter.com/feministhulk)http://twitter.com/feministhulk
[14:21] <Bright_Snow> Do you know aay to REALLLypiss snow off?
[14:22] <Bright_Snow> Destory the social structure she is trying to examine before she has finished cataloging it
[14:22] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah yeah
[14:22] <Brazen_Sand> And no, it's clearly sociologist Hulk
[14:22] <Brazen_Sand> CONFLICT THEORY!
[14:23] <Brazen_Sand> But seriously, I'm just going to the palace
[14:24] <Brazen_Sand> Just to look around until something happens...: O
[14:24] <~Anshu> Brazen would probably know the prince
[14:25] <~Anshu> oh wait
[14:25] <Brazen_Sand> Wyld pockets?
[14:25] <~Anshu> know of the prince, at least.
[14:25] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah
[14:25] <Brazen_Sand> But not that the Prince is the guy who wears a tiger mask
[14:25] <Nomoe_Hideaki> mmh. something just occured to me.
[14:26] <Nomoe_Hideaki> travelling from Gem to the Jade Plum Citadel means going through the Wyld the whole way.
[14:26] <~Anshu> hmmm
[14:26] <Nomoe_Hideaki> you did take that into account, right?
[14:26] <Brazen_Sand> Lunar Wyld Travel charms
[14:26] <wandering> don't have any sadly
[14:26] <Brazen_Sand> I meant the ones that allow Wyld protection
[14:27] <~Anshu> Brazen yelled at it until it left them alone.
[14:27] <Brazen_Sand> That could work...
[14:27] <Bright_Snow> I do have them
[14:27] <wandering> ahh thsoe I do have.. well tats and Laughing at madness
[14:27] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah, that's what I meant. The ones that let you lead people safely through the Wyld
[14:27] <~Anshu> or they beat up a fae until he gave them safe passage
[14:28] <wandering> That would work as well
[14:28] <Brazen_Sand> btw, how tall are the buildings around here?
[14:28] <Nomoe_Hideaki> mmh. Nomoe either took the long way around, or trusted in Sanken design (now with 100% more cold iron!) and his own anti-Wyld charms.
[14:29] <wandering> hmm.. makes note to pick up HUngry Dream cloak at some point
[14:29] <Brazen_Sand> You knwo that means it had to be unforged iron, right?
[14:29] <wandering> I think there is some argument to what is meant by cold Iron
[14:29] <Nomoe_Hideaki> it's an alchemical property
[14:29] <~Anshu> it doesn't have to be cold iron in Exalted
[14:29] <~Anshu> forged iron is fine
[14:29] <Nomoe_Hideaki> doesn't mean you can't make stuff out of it
[14:30] <~Anshu> as long as it's iron and not steel
[14:30] <Nomoe_Hideaki> I'm pretty sure it's a Thaumaturgical ritual that accounts for the difference between cold iron and the other kinds
[14:30] <Bright_Snow> Is hungry dream cloak the one that lets you eat Fair Folk
[14:30] <~Anshu> there could be
[14:30] <Bright_Snow> And gain their charms
[14:30] <wandering> yup
[14:30] <Bright_Snow> As I also want that knack
[14:30] <wandering> well lets you know them at least
[14:30] <Bright_Snow> I will suggest that you get the swarm charms
[14:30] <Nomoe_Hideaki> probably similar to how you refine orichalcum from gold you can treat iron to be 'cold iron'
[14:30] <Bright_Snow> As well
[14:30] <Brazen_Sand> k
[14:31] <Brazen_Sand> Anyway, how tall are the buildings in An-Teng?
[14:31] <Bright_Snow> With Snow's backstory Hungry Dream Cloak makes a lot of sense
[14:31] <wandering> Will look into that one
[14:31] <~Anshu> in this part? they're not super-tall
[14:31] <~Anshu> a few stories
[14:31] <~Anshu> well, wait
[14:31] <Brazen_Sand> So about his height?
[14:32] <~Anshu> I think this city dates from the First Age
[14:32] <~Anshu> so we'll say at least 10 stories
[14:32] <Brazen_Sand> I really don't think so...but it's not important
[14:35] <Brazen_Sand> :B
[14:37] <Brazen_Sand> It's funny how Brazen and Wandering are by far the most mentally well-adjusted couple here XD
[14:37] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Snow has assumed an An Teng shape, right?
[14:38] <Nomoe_Hideaki> One Nomoe doesn't know?
[14:39] <Bright_Snow> Yep
[14:39] <Bright_Snow> Yep
[14:40] <Brazen_Sand> Is this place still a satrap?
[14:40] <~Anshu> yeah, basically
[14:40] <Brazen_Sand> *satrapy
[14:40] <Brazen_Sand> Interesting, but I thought the Realm was gone.
[14:41] <Brazen_Sand> btw, Snow, colonialism isn't a culture. It's like a big parasite dropped on top of an already present culture
[14:41] <Nomoe_Hideaki> the Realm has new people at the top, but it's not gone, IIRC
[14:42] <~Anshu> ^ that.
[14:42] <Brazen_Sand> Interesting. Who's in charge here, then?
[14:42] <Brazen_Sand> btw, did you see what Brazen asked the prince?
[14:43] <~Anshu> I did
[14:43] <~Anshu> and I haven't decided
[14:43] <Brazen_Sand> ok
[14:43] <~Anshu> on who the satrap here is
[14:43] <Bright_Snow> I wasn't claiming it was
[14:43] <Bright_Snow> Merely that by screwing with the local social stucture before Snow can analysie it will result in ANGRY LUNAR#
[14:44] <Brazen_Sand> Societies change all the time
[14:44] <Brazen_Sand> if not by godzilla-socialists, tehn maybe by Fair Folk
[14:44] <Brazen_Sand> or, I dunno, alligators!
[14:46] <Bright_Snow> Don't get her started on the Fair Folk
[14:46] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah
[14:46] <Brazen_Sand> Anyway, I'll go nip down to the Shore Lands and get some sweet sweet vengeance
[14:47] <~Anshu> brb
[14:47] <Brazen_Sand> Argh >_<
[14:47] <Brazen_Sand> Hey, anyone want to have a vacation in An-Teng?
[14:49] <Brazen_Sand> >_> No?
[14:50] <Brazen_Sand> Wait, now I'm confused. There are still Wyld Hunts?
[14:50] <wandering> Not really seems to straightlaced for Wandering
[14:50] <Nomoe_Hideaki> nah
[14:50] <Nomoe_Hideaki> City of Dead Flowers is a Shadowland
[14:50] <Nomoe_Hideaki> the Lion has forces there
[14:50] <Nomoe_Hideaki> (apparently
[14:50] <Nomoe_Hideaki> )
[14:50] <Brazen_Sand> I know
[14:50] <Brazen_Sand> I meant the Legion
[14:51] <Nomoe_Hideaki> oh right, misread
[14:51] <Brazen_Sand> They're still on that whole "Anathema" kick?
[14:51] <Brazen_Sand> Awww but we clearly need a honeymoon : P
[14:52] <Brazen_Sand> Also, do we have to fight another Abyssal?
[14:55] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah, I noticed that Nomoe is here, but I figured you wouldn't want to have to deal with his crap right now
[14:55] <Brazen_Sand> Brazen's, I mean
[14:59] <Brazen_Sand> That was to Dakk, btw
[15:00] <~Anshu> aaand back
[15:00] <wandering> wb
[15:00] <Brazen_Sand> *waves*
[15:01] <Brazen_Sand> Wow, this is like ultra-humble for Nomoe
[15:03] <Nomoe_Hideaki> For once he doesn't want the attention ;)
[15:04] <Brazen_Sand> Wow
[15:04] <Brazen_Sand> I've heard of being in the dog house but this is ridiculous : O
[15:05] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Heh. Nomoe has indeed considered that it might turn out this way and is prepared.
[15:05] <Bright_Snow> Hay she got some of what he wanted to do to her through the limit break. And she deals with certain problems with either a flight or fight repsonse. At the moment, she has chosen flight.
[15:06] <Brazen_Sand> I'm not saying either is wrong
[15:06] <Brazen_Sand> *that she's wrong
[15:07] <Brazen_Sand> Great, now I'm not sure what to do.
[15:09] <~Anshu> \Sorry
[15:10] <Brazen_Sand> Don't be sorry
[15:10] <Brazen_Sand> It's called decision-making and consequences and stuff
[15:12] <Brazen_Sand> *SMASH* *CRUSH* MARRIAGE COUNSELLING *SMUSH!*
[15:13] <Nomoe_Hideaki> in the long term that's a very good question ... especially since the Great Curse gets worth with time
[15:13] <~Anshu> *is actually trying to tie stuff in to the Lion plotline*
[15:14] <Brazen_Sand> I know, Anshu, I'm trying to go with it
[15:14] <Brazen_Sand> ; )
[15:15] <Brazen_Sand> I don't think it specifically gets worse with time. It's just that you get more powerful with time
[15:15] <wandering> and more likely I think
[15:15] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Nomoe will be going into that as well and see if he can drag the others along ... but he has his priorities atm :p
[15:15] <Brazen_Sand> And Deliberate Cruelty from an E8 Solar is MUCH MUCH more damaging then an E2 Solar
[15:15] <Bright_Snow> Actually you have to remember Limit Break is extremely cathartic
[15:16] <Bright_Snow> I imagine it becomes like any addiction
[15:16] <Bright_Snow> And therefore does infact get worse with time
[15:16] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Yeah, but at some point you notice a pattern ... and then you either go 'wtf is wrong with me?' or 'huh. apparently I'm that kind of person, so lets just go with it'.
[15:16] <wandering> Quite possibly, you start to seek out teh triggers
[15:16] <~Anshu> *rereads sidebar on Alchemicals p. 178*
[15:16] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Plus you might well accumulate permanent limit
[15:16] <wandering> how easy is that for Solars?
[15:17] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Depends on what sorts of Charms you develop, what sorts of crazy things you do.
[15:17] <wandering> the only way I can think of the top of my head for Lunars to do that is the knack that lets you much Solars/Abyssals/Infernals
[15:17] <wandering> *much = Munch
[15:17] <Bright_Snow> For example I have a Twilight Sorcerer character who is E6 and effectively always in Limit Break
[15:18] <wandering> ouch
[15:18] <Bright_Snow> Its great he is such a raging arse
[15:18] <Brazen_Sand> jeez, how did that happen?
[15:19] <Bright_Snow> Well my view on limit breaks is that they tend to work best as extensions of the characters worst character traits.
[15:19] <wandering> yeah, that makes the most sense
[15:20] <Bright_Snow> a) It feels more natueral in play and b it makes sense for that aspect of them to get worse without significant reason to alter their behaviour
[15:20] <Brazen_Sand> But how is he constantly in Limit Break?
[15:21] * Nomoe_Hideaki nods. Before Exaltation Nomoe was merely very concerned with matters of respect and social standing and easy to anger. Now disrespect literally drives him crazy, and his reactions are totally out of proportion.
[15:21] <Bright_Snow> The Twilight was very Guardian like in his behaviour (If you know nMage at all), willing to sacrifice anything and everything for what he viewed as the greater good. Taking everything bad that had to happen apon himself. To the point where all he has left is his arrogance
[15:21] <Brazen_Sand> Guys, he seriously can't turn back : \
[15:21] <Bright_Snow> His egotistical megolomanic arrogance
[15:22] <Brazen_Sand> So he has Permanent Limit?
[15:22] <~Anshu> I know, Brazen
[15:22] <Bright_Snow> If he got his way and creation under his thumb there would be no more suffering, as he would be in charge there would be no way for such a thing to occur.
[15:22] <~Anshu> but the Prince doesn't
[15:22] <Brazen_Sand> Oh good.
[15:22] <Bright_Snow> Yeah, some
[15:22] <Brazen_Sand> But otherwise he just acts like he's in controlled limit all the time?
[15:25] <Bright_Snow> She in fact said that and a whole bunch more on the Deliberative floor
[15:25] <Brazen_Sand> oh u go girl
[15:25] <Bright_Snow> Mostly directed to Li Jin Gang and Solitary Talon
[15:26] <Bright_Snow> There is a reason she is currently in fear of her life
[15:26] <Brazen_Sand> I didn't think they'd be so petty : (
[15:26] <Brazen_Sand> I am disappoint in them
[15:26] <Bright_Snow> Oh come on
[15:27] <Bright_Snow> Ziyad nearly end up in a fight with Li
[15:28] <~Anshu> I don't remember that
[15:29] <~Anshu> Also, Lost and Faust: are you content to have girl talk, or should I be throwing plot hooks at you too? :P
[15:29] <Bright_Snow> It was during the politicing toward the end
[15:29] <Bright_Snow> When Anshu, Ziyad, DSV and someone else met Solitary to try and give up the armies
[15:30] <Bright_Snow> During a recess I think
[15:30] <Bright_Snow> He threatened violence to try and push the conversation his way
[15:30] <Bright_Snow> And I think that nearly came to blows
[15:30] <~Anshu> ah
[15:30] <Brazen_Sand> I had hoped that they would eventually attain some measure of maturity in the 10 years since
[15:30] <Brazen_Sand> The best part was when we made Solitary cry :3
[15:30] <Bright_Snow> It was either that or instead of DSV it was Nuwa and this was over something else like the Slavery vote during the meeting
[15:30] <Brazen_Sand> You mean her slave army?
[15:30] <~Anshu> *remembers rather fuzzily*
[15:31] <~Anshu> her army weren't slaves
[15:31] <Bright_Snow> Yes they were
[15:31] <~Anshu> I thought they weren't. I always put them in different mental categories.
[15:32] <Brazen_Sand> But still, to send people after Snow to try and kill her, with all that's happening at the same time?
[15:32] <~Anshu> not saying she didn't have an army of slaves in the figurative sense, but I always thought that her actual troops weren't themselves enslaved.
[15:32] <Brazen_Sand> That's messed up
[15:33] <~Anshu> well, they're clearly not putting much effort into it, since she's still alive
[15:33] <Bright_Snow> They were a mind controlled- specially bred army
[15:33] <Brazen_Sand> I think you're underestimating Snow
[15:34] <Bright_Snow> Which is I guess not slavery in anything but the broadest sense
[15:34] <~Anshu> hmmm
[15:34] <Bright_Snow> She has been in hiding for several years
[15:34] <Bright_Snow> And she rarely uses her own shape
[15:34] <~Anshu> that's true
[15:34] <Bright_Snow> And no one is aware she is Nomoe's bondmate as that is secret
[15:35] <Brazen_Sand> Also, Lunars do well in teh Wyld
[15:35] <Brazen_Sand> Guess what there are lots of now?
[15:35] <Bright_Snow> Hell for three sessions the gcircle didn't know her real name
[15:35] <Brazen_Sand> *cough* Snow will you meet Nomoe or not? He's getting desperate
[15:35] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Hey! Nomoe takes issue with that statement :p
[15:36] <Brazen_Sand> Still true
[15:36] <Bright_Snow> Which statement?
[15:36] <Brazen_Sand> That he's clearly getting desperate
[15:36] <Brazen_Sand> with the IMs
[15:37] <Nomoe_Hideaki> huh?
[15:37] <Brazen_Sand> I mean, he's done at least 5 posts describing how he REALLY HOPES TO MEET SNOW
[15:37] <~Anshu> Brazen is getting slightly confused, I think. But that's okay
[15:37] <Brazen_Sand> And that HE SURE HOPES THAT SHE'LL LET HIIM FIND HER
[15:37] <Brazen_Sand> Grargh, let's just do something.
[15:37] <Brazen_Sand> Is the Prince going to say something or is our audience done?
[15:38] <Nomoe_Hideaki> I've also done five 'posts' about his efforts to subvert Gem, and that was more of a distraction.
[15:38] <~Anshu> I missed that you'd responded
[15:38] <Brazen_Sand> Well I had
[15:38] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Nomoe would dispute any accusations of 'being desperate', but not that it's important to him.
[15:38] <Nomoe_Hideaki> It's of course all a matter of perspective and degrees.
[15:39] <Brazen_Sand> Yes yes fine. Snow, are you going to allow it?
[15:39] <Nomoe_Hideaki> did the prince say anything about the whole anathema thing when Nomoe (off screen) introduced himself, Anshu?
[15:39] <Nomoe_Hideaki> and remind me again who that Silver-Crowned guy is?
[15:39] <Brazen_Sand> Silver Prince?
[15:39] <~Anshu> it's not a guy
[15:39] <Brazen_Sand> : O
[15:40] <~Anshu> it's a splinter state of Tengese who bleach their hair
[15:40] <~Anshu> in honor of their ancient matriarch or something
[15:40] <Brazen_Sand> Ahhhh
[15:40] <Brazen_Sand> How fascinating! Did you make that up?
[15:40] <~Anshu> no
[15:40] <~Anshu> it's in the South book
[15:40] <Brazen_Sand> Too bad, it sounds really interesting
[15:41] <~Anshu> and the Prince can't correct Brazen's misinterpretation, because Brazen's not saying it out loud.
[15:41] <Brazen_Sand> So why're they all pissed at the Tengese?
[15:41] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah
[15:41] <Brazen_Sand> So which Legion is going to attack and hate anathema, then?
[15:41] <Brazen_Sand> cause I'm confused too
[15:41] <~Anshu> DX
[15:42] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Well, Nomoe's opinion could be summed up as 'yeah? Let them. I have some repressed anger to take out on someone anyway' :p
[15:42] <~Anshu> The legion isn't!
[15:42] <Brazen_Sand> Okay then who is pissed about anathema then!? DX
[15:43] <~Anshu> The Deliberative/Realm legion can't send anyone to protect the High Lands against raids by the Anathema-hating Silver-Crowned because they are down in the Shore Lands keeping an eye on the Lion's base.
[15:43] <Brazen_Sand> Oooooh
[15:43] <Brazen_Sand> Okay
[15:43] <Brazen_Sand> Well, Brazen can send them home.
[15:43] <Brazen_Sand> He's got this covered (Totally not overestimating himself. Not a bit)
[15:45] <Bright_Snow> Snow has the incident on video
[15:45] <Bright_Snow> Like pretty much every scene she is in
[15:45] <wandering> Ahh
[15:45] <Brazen_Sand> You should write it up and put it on the wiki! : O
[15:45] <Brazen_Sand> That would be pretty cool
[15:45] <Brazen_Sand> Also, do I need to roll to understand the Tiger Mask?
[15:45] <Bright_Snow> It is likely to be done, I just haven't finished that section yet
[15:45] <~Anshu> *ahem* I apologize for this in advance, but...
[15:45] <~Anshu> Kinky ;)
[15:46] <~Anshu> (at Snow recording everything)
[15:46] <Brazen_Sand> Wait a second, does htis mean....at the camp...urgh
[15:46] * wandering waggles finger "Naughty Naughy*
[15:46] <Brazen_Sand> Good thing Brazen sleeps away from the camp then.
[15:46] <Nomoe_Hideaki> heh. Brazen Sand's solution is to kick over the citadel? Nomoe's would be to wait for the Silver-Crowned to offend him and then start murdering them.
[15:46] <Brazen_Sand> Those are not connected situations
[15:47] <~Anshu> ummm... yes, roll
[15:47] <Brazen_Sand> Perception + Occult?
[15:47] <~Anshu> Int + Occult
[15:47] <Brazen_Sand> Ssst
[15:47] <Brazen_Sand> .ex 5
[15:47] <Pattern_Spider> Brazen_Sand rolled 3 successes against TN 7: [1, 7, 7, 8, 5]
[15:47] <Brazen_Sand> hey, not bad.
[15:47] <wandering> where as Wandering would sneak in and use Night Lure on everyone
[15:48] <Brazen_Sand> Wandering can come. We can have a back-to-back badasses moment! D
[15:48] <Brazen_Sand> *: D
[15:49] <~Anshu> The tiger mask is a four-dot artifact. It allows the wearer to summon and command tigers, and also to turn into one.
[15:51] <Brazen_Sand> Oh, and that said, if I get an opportunity to literally kick the Citadel down, I will do so! ^_^
[15:51] <Brazen_Sand> Meh
[15:51] <Brazen_Sand> How many tigers?
[15:51] <Brazen_Sand> You don't need to be precise >>
[15:52] <~Anshu> Lots.
[15:52] <Brazen_Sand> Wow
[15:52] <Brazen_Sand> That is pretty good
[15:52] <Brazen_Sand> I'll brb, dinner
[15:53] <Brazen_Sand> Try not to end while I'm gone, plz : P
[15:57] <~Anshu> right
[16:04] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Well, with CE afk this setup for the next scene doesn't have immediate pull ...
[16:05] <~Anshu> yeah =(
[16:05] <Nomoe_Hideaki> do we skip ahead to a new scene anyway, or is WDS/BS's still running?
[16:06] <Brazen_Sand> back
[16:06] <Brazen_Sand> *pants, out of breath* I'm back everyone
[16:08] <Brazen_Sand> hello?
[16:08] <wandering> I'm happy enough to move on if snow is
[16:09] <Brazen_Sand> I'm okay once I get a guide.
[16:09] <Brazen_Sand> Although Brazen is probably as tall as Nomoe's vacation residence : P
[16:11] <Nomoe_Hideaki> heh. Brazen is just a little bit bigger than an elephant, but ok :D
[16:11] <Brazen_Sand> depends on the elephant
[16:12] <Nomoe_Hideaki> with a Gargantuan mutation ...
[16:12] <Brazen_Sand> IS THAT AN INDIAN OR AFRICAN SWALLOW I MEAN ELEPHANT
[16:12] <Brazen_Sand> 24 feet tall, yes.
[16:12] <Brazen_Sand> Unless it takes his previous size mutations into account
[16:12] <~Anshu> He's definitely taller than an elephant
[16:12] <Nomoe_Hideaki> I meant an elephant with the Gargantuan mutation ...
[16:13] <Brazen_Sand> in which case he is...very very fucking huge
[16:13] <~Anshu> size mutations do not work that way
[16:13] <Brazen_Sand> Oh good
[16:13] <Brazen_Sand> cause that would be way too big
[16:13] <Brazen_Sand> So, off to Cherry Blossom street then!
[16:14] <Brazen_Sand> Although I don't think An-Teng has cherry trees >_>
[16:14] <Nomoe_Hideaki> It's obviously made for tourists :p
[16:15] <Brazen_Sand> good point
[16:15] <Brazen_Sand> So off we go! : O
[16:16] <~Anshu> *will allow Nomoe to describe his winter home*
[16:18] <Bright_Snow> Who is with Brazen then
[16:18] <Brazen_Sand> A guide
[16:18] <Bright_Snow> *nods*
[16:18] <Brazen_Sand> who will NOT BE STEPPED ON THANK YOU VERY MUCH, THAT HAS NEVER HAPPENED >: (
[16:21] <Brazen_Sand> Grrr, you just wait, soon people will WELCOME seeing me!
[16:22] <~Anshu> >.> It might help if Brazen developed the ability to appear less threatening. I mean, even Malfeas has the Brass Dancer.
[16:22] <Brazen_Sand> The Brass Dancer gives people cancer
[16:22] <Nomoe_Hideaki> well, does Brazne have the perceptiveness to notice they are uncomfortable with him?
[16:23] <Brazen_Sand> Probably...yes...: <
[16:23] <~Anshu> Well, still, he looks more inviting than a giant shifting city
[16:24] <Brazen_Sand> Taurus, do you have an OOC problem with Brazen?
[16:24] <Brazen_Sand> Cause you bring that up a lot
[16:24] <Brazen_Sand> Seriously.
[16:25] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Brazen has neither Investigation nor Socialize, does he have any charms to notice?
[16:25] <~Anshu> I don't have a problem with the character. It's just that you don't seem to enjoy the social consequences of his transformation.
[16:26] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Because since these are Nomoe's servants they'll probably have a three dice specialty in hiding their feelings and such :p
[16:26] <~Anshu> you're all ike "Why don't people like me? =("
[16:26] <Brazen_Sand> Oh no, that's just for show
[16:26] <~Anshu> and we're like "uh... you're a 24' winged flaming monster thing with a poisonous stinger tail"
[16:27] <~Anshu> and then you're all like "your hat for mah character no no limit"
[16:28] <~Anshu> *slight exaggeration*
[16:28] <Brazen_Sand> XD No man, that's just IC stuff
[16:28] <Brazen_Sand> I just do that for fun. I know totally why people are freaked out
[16:29] <Brazen_Sand> I'm having fun with teh social consequences
[16:29] <Nomoe_Hideaki> so, Brazen is the only one coming in for tea?
[16:29] <Brazen_Sand> HAH!
[16:30] <~Anshu> well, the guide would probably wait outside with the other hired help
[16:30] <Nomoe_Hideaki> naturally
[16:32] <Brazen_Sand> Anyway, yeah, don't worry Taurus
[16:33] <Brazen_Sand> About the social consequences thing. I do hope that eventually people will like him and so-forth, but it's not like "YOU HATE ME! WAAAAH"
[16:33] <Brazen_Sand> I figure he could tell with the essence eye or something
[16:34] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Per+Socialize, probably diff 4 or so ;)
[16:34] <Brazen_Sand> =_=
[16:35] <Brazen_Sand> .ex 4 + 4 hits of 2nd Brazen Excellency
[16:35] <Pattern_Spider> invalid syntax - target number has to be an actual number
[16:35] <Brazen_Sand> .ex 4
[16:35] <Pattern_Spider> Brazen_Sand rolled 3 successes against TN 7: [3, 3, 10, 8]
[16:36] <Nomoe_Hideaki> again, a prett ygood lie. They do this for a living, you know ,)
[16:36] <Brazen_Sand> Oh come on
[16:36] <Brazen_Sand> I got 7 successes
[16:36] <Nomoe_Hideaki> yeah, not saying you should do more rolling
[16:36] <~Anshu> would his Excellency apply to it?
[16:36] <Brazen_Sand> Oh good
[16:37] <Nomoe_Hideaki> just saying they keep pretending to ignorance and lying as well as they can
[16:37] <~Anshu> hmmm
[16:37] <Brazen_Sand> He trampled decorum
[16:37] <~Anshu> okay, surprisingly perceptive is a key phrase
[16:37] <Brazen_Sand> that too
[16:40] <Brazen_Sand> Note that he's NOT using Crowned with Madness
[16:41] <Brazen_Sand> Instead, he'll just have a small stroke : P
[16:42] <Brazen_Sand> Hmmm, that woudl probably need a limit roll
[16:43] <Brazen_Sand> not sure what to roll though >_>
[16:44] <~Anshu> why would it cause a limit roll, out of curiosity?
[16:44] <Brazen_Sand> I guess if it was a Brazen Sand Urge it would
[16:44] <Brazen_Sand> nvm
[16:47] <Brazen_Sand> out of curiosity, what type of tea was it?
[16:49] <wandering> Will we likely be running for much longer?
[16:49] <Nomoe_Hideaki> it's called "Cloud Master's Secret Venom"
[16:50] <Brazen_Sand> Tired already, Faustus?
[16:50] <Brazen_Sand> Hmmm...
[16:50] <~Anshu> no, not much longer
[16:50] <Brazen_Sand> Well maybe if people posted faster we could get to the exposition
[16:51] <~Anshu> anyone have any objection to reaching a breaking point in 10 minutes or so?
[16:51] <Brazen_Sand> I do
[16:52] <Nomoe_Hideaki> I was hoping we'd be able to do the meeting scene today
[16:52] <Brazen_Sand> Cause we're supposed to meet Nomoe but no one else will even move the damn scene
[16:52] <Brazen_Sand> *looks at Lunars*
[16:53] <Bright_Snow> Snow is unlikely to confront Nomoe atn
[16:53] <Bright_Snow> atm even
[16:53] <Bright_Snow> It is up to either one of the other two to convince her to
[16:53] <Brazen_Sand> Then why didn't you say that when I asked like an hour ago? DX
[16:53] <Bright_Snow> Or for something to physically force her to
[16:53] <Bright_Snow> I did say it
[16:53] <Bright_Snow> Like three hours ago
[16:54] <Brazen_Sand> >_<
[16:56] <Brazen_Sand> Sorry for missing it
[16:58] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Was someone new appointed to be in charge of Gem?
[17:00] <~Anshu> the Deliberative sent out a governor, yes.
[17:00] <Brazen_Sand> Excellent
[17:00] <Nomoe_Hideaki> one from Nomoe's list of preferred candidates?
[17:01] <~Anshu> naturally.
[17:01] <~Anshu> I can't think of a reason not to.
[17:02] <Nomoe_Hideaki> at this point Nomoe brings up Frozen Sunlight Mask
[17:02] <Nomoe_Hideaki> seeing as Brazen is so perceptive :p
[17:03] <Brazen_Sand> Don't hate the playa, hate the game : P
[17:04] <Nomoe_Hideaki> who's in charge of Gem now?
[17:04] <Brazen_Sand> Oh, I thought that Frozen Sunlight Mask was the guy's name XD
[17:04] <Nomoe_Hideaki> no, it's his 'you don't see through me or my lies' charm
[17:05] <Nomoe_Hideaki> and yes, it's a favourite of his
[17:05] <Brazen_Sand> So wait, was he lying when he said the last thing?
[17:05] <Nomoe_Hideaki> who knows.
[17:05] <Brazen_Sand> about it being to Gem's benefit
[17:05] <Brazen_Sand> You do : P
[17:06] <Nomoe_Hideaki> well, no.
[17:07] <Brazen_Sand> that's a relief
[17:07] <Nomoe_Hideaki> not that Brazen knows that
[17:07] <Brazen_Sand> Gah!
[17:07] <~Anshu> *will come up with a name quickly if it's wanted*
[17:08] <Bright_Snow> This entire conversation reminds me of this song: (Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OExykL5QnXY)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OExykL5QnXY
[17:09] <Brazen_Sand> That's a classic
[17:15] <wandering> I'm gonna leave early if every one doesn't mind. Its been a long day
[17:16] <~Anshu> I have no problem with it
[17:16] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Understandable
[17:16] <Brazen_Sand> night
[17:17] <wandering> Will see you all later then
[17:17] * Nomoe_Hideaki waves
[17:17] *** wandering has left #celestialdeliberativeOOC
[17:18] <Nomoe_Hideaki> uh, what?
[17:18] <Nomoe_Hideaki> what's Brazen getting at there?
[17:19] <Brazen_Sand> He's getting at being completely wrong
[17:19] <Brazen_Sand> with his Occult of 2
[17:19] <Brazen_Sand> ; )
[17:19] <Brazen_Sand> He figures that there's only one Seal, and the seal has been open for a few years
[17:19] <Brazen_Sand> so why did these upgrades just show up now?
[17:22] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Brazen Sand absolutely wants to know the names of the experts?
[17:22] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah, he wants to know everything possible.
[17:23] <Brazen_Sand> Because, again, he *DOES* have family in there, despite appearances
[17:23] <Brazen_Sand> plus he cares about the place.
[17:24] <Brazen_Sand> It's sort of like whenever a disaster happens in a place where family lives, you want to know everything that's happening, no matter how useless the info might be, you know?
[17:29] <Brazen_Sand> Do they all have Gremlin Syndrome?
[17:30] <~Anshu> the Abyssals you mean?
[17:30] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah
[17:30] <Brazen_Sand> Scary thought, that.
[17:31] <~Anshu> I don't know. I haven't exactly made any hard and fast rules about this
[17:31] <Brazen_Sand> Slap some Voidtech on your Abyssals, give them Gremlin Syndrome.
[17:31] <Brazen_Sand> Well which do you think would be best?
[17:32] <Brazen_Sand> If you can get your Abyssal to Dissonance 10, you don't have to worry about them ever rebelling
[17:32] <Brazen_Sand> Just point them in the right direction and watch the fun
[17:33] <~Anshu> indeed
[17:33] <Brazen_Sand> I mean, no redemption
[17:34] <~Anshu> truth to tell I have only a vague recollection of how Dissonance works
[17:34] <Brazen_Sand> You get Voidtech on you, you get a Dissonance Track
[17:34] <Brazen_Sand> Er, you get Gremlin Syndrome you get a Dissonance Track, that is
[17:34] <Brazen_Sand> Voidtech is just the most common vector
[17:34] <~Anshu> right
[17:35] <Brazen_Sand> IIRC, the Dissonance eventually goes up...
[17:35] <Brazen_Sand> If you reach 10, you're constantly in an uncontrolled Deliberate Cruelty state
[17:36] <Brazen_Sand> One other thing.
[17:37] <Brazen_Sand> Voidtech is way more powerful then regular Alchemical charms
[17:37] <Brazen_Sand> Or rather, it makes them more powerful
[17:38] <Brazen_Sand> and it increases like Clarity
[17:39] <~Anshu> right
[17:40] <Brazen_Sand> Wow, I used "deal with it" 3 times in those 2 posts @_@
[17:42] <Brazen_Sand> Cool storyline, btw
[17:42] <Brazen_Sand> Getting to raid a Gremlin CITY! : O
[17:42] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Note that that's just Nomoe's theory
[17:43] <Brazen_Sand> Anyway, going to Autocthonia is really neat! : D
[17:43] <Nomoe_Hideaki> yeah.
[17:44] <~Anshu> and you'll maybe get to go to the Underworld
[17:44] <Nomoe_Hideaki> I do hope that Ruby will get back to Nomoe about that fact-finding mission *hint hint* :p
[17:44] <Brazen_Sand> Oh, can we fight that evil Smoke dragon?
[17:44] <Brazen_Sand> The Shogun of Genocide?
[17:45] <~Anshu> uhhh.... that one of those things in the chapter I always skip over, isn't it?
[17:45] <Brazen_Sand> It's an example Lesser Elemental Dragon of Smoke
[17:45] <~Anshu> yeah, that chapter
[17:45] <Nomoe_Hideaki> you know, if Brazen had said 'because the people here are in trouble' or something like that he'd just have shaken his head, but revenge ... that he understands :p
[17:47] <Brazen_Sand> Ah, here it is
[17:47] <Brazen_Sand> Oberashti
[17:47] <Brazen_Sand> Pg. 72
[17:47] <Brazen_Sand> and thank you, Dakk ; )
[17:53] <~Anshu> I think this is a good breaking point
[17:53] <Nomoe_Hideaki> because all Nomoe's people would do would be to IM him, too :p
[17:53] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah
[17:53] <Brazen_Sand> And I agree
[17:53] <Nomoe_Hideaki> mmh
[17:53] <Brazen_Sand> Brazen was abotu to leave
[17:53] <Nomoe_Hideaki> yeah
[17:54] <Nomoe_Hideaki> I was hoping we'd get to doing something, be it on the Autobot front or the Creation side front
[17:54] <Brazen_Sand> *shrug* It takes so long for some people to post
[17:54] <Nomoe_Hideaki> And some of us have issues :p
[17:55] <Brazen_Sand> hm?
[17:56] <Nomoe_Hideaki> So, next week we do what?
[17:57] <Brazen_Sand> I mean the issues thing
[17:57] <~Anshu> continue where we left off?
[17:57] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Go directly to Autochthonia or do that City of Dead Flowers thing.
[17:57] <Brazen_Sand> Brazen will tell Wandering about it
[17:58] <Brazen_Sand> If Nomoe doesn't want to get involved, Brazen can do it himself
[17:58] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Nomoe probably would get involved, but from an OOC perspective I must say I find the Autochthonia idea far more interesting ;)
[17:59] <Brazen_Sand> *sigh* The thing is that I don't think we can handle doing them both
[17:59] <Brazen_Sand> Since there's a certain...lack of planning
[17:59] <Nomoe_Hideaki> Nomoe would see if he can get some information on the City first
[18:00] <Nomoe_Hideaki> if that's what we'll end up doing
[18:00] <Brazen_Sand> I'd ask Taurus to do it with just Brazen and whoever was around
[18:00] <Brazen_Sand> but I don't think he can plan both things
[18:02] <Brazen_Sand> Since he usually seems to make his plans on THE NIGHT BEFORE THE GAME
[18:02] <~Anshu> <.<
[18:02] <~Anshu> >.>
[18:02] * Nomoe_Hideaki usually plans sessions in the afternoon before the game
[18:02] <~Anshu> even if I did make more detailed plans, it's not like I'd be able to stick to them through a whole session
[18:02] *** Nomoe_Hideaki is now known as dakkareth
[18:03] <Bright_Snow> I normally A ROUGH IDEA
[18:03] <Bright_Snow> ~aND PLAN DURING THE GAME
[18:03] <Brazen_Sand> That is true...
[18:03] <Bright_Snow> And stupid caps lock
[18:03] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah, Rough idea is good
[18:03] <dakkareth> heh
[18:03] <Brazen_Sand> Alright sorry. Still, the point stands
[18:03] <dakkareth> mmh, that could be an Ebon Dragon Charm. Randomly put other people into caps lock to make them look bad.
[18:04] <Brazen_Sand> I promised I'd help the prince, but I don't want to slow things down >_<
[18:04] <dakkareth> We could just handwave that away.
[18:04] <dakkareth> If there are no Abyssals in residence ...
[18:04] <Bright_Snow> There is still putting the band back together to work on first oo
[18:04] <Brazen_Sand> if there are no Abyssals in there then I WANT to play
[18:05] <Brazen_Sand> We cuold handwave that away
[18:05] <dakkareth> Yeah, that's Nomoe's first priority at the moment.
[18:05] <Brazen_Sand> We could just handwave them meeting up again
[18:05] <dakkareth> Nah.
[18:06] <Brazen_Sand> So taking down an entire citadel = handwaveable
[18:06] <Brazen_Sand> you two making up = not?
[18:06] <dakkareth> Yeah, pretty much. IMO.
[18:06] <~Anshu> Character drama > combat with predictable outcome
[18:06] <Brazen_Sand> Then why don't you two just meet up and do a private session and post it later?
[18:07] <dakkareth> That's assuming the citadel has no big pre-planned relevance to the Engine of Extinction plot, of course.
[18:07] <dakkareth> But yeah, character development > random fighty intermission
[18:07] <~Anshu> well, it belongs to the Lion
[18:07] <Brazen_Sand> That way, you guys can fix it up or fight it out or have sex or whatever and we don't have to sit around and watch
[18:08] <~Anshu> who we know is in cahoots with the apostates...
[18:08] <Brazen_Sand> Er, not that you guys are boring, just that then we can go straight to the action.
[18:08] <dakkareth> Which is why it would have been nice if we'd managed to get them into the same scene today.
[18:08] <dakkareth> Then we could have done just that.
[18:09] <Brazen_Sand> Yeah, it really would've been nice if someone would go to the same location
[18:09] <dakkareth> It does kind of rest on Brazen and Wandering apparently.
[18:09] <Brazen_Sand> Oh ffs
[18:09] <dakkareth> Oh, absolutely.
[18:10] <Brazen_Sand> Snow, where are you?
[18:10] <Brazen_Sand> There, done.
[18:10] <Bright_Snow> Yeah I am there
[18:10] <Bright_Snow> And yeah Dakk is right
[18:10] <Bright_Snow> Snow won't allow Nomoe to find her
[18:10] <Brazen_Sand> That's ridiculous. I'm sorry man, but it bogs the entire story down.
[18:10] <Bright_Snow> And she sure as hell won't go looking for him
[18:11] <Brazen_Sand> Plus, we can't solve it before Friday because you're never on AIM
[18:11] <Bright_Snow> Again I agree with both Dakk and Anshu
[18:11] <Bright_Snow> Character Drama >> Abyssal plot
[18:11] <Bright_Snow> TBH Abyssal's are boring
[18:11] <Brazen_Sand> These are Alchemicals
[18:12] <Brazen_Sand> We're going to Autocthonia
[18:12] <Bright_Snow> That is more interesting
[18:13] *** dakkareth is now known as Nomoe_Hideaki
[18:13] <Brazen_Sand> Also, you know that if I try it on either side, you're going to limit break all over the place
[18:13] <Brazen_Sand> there will be limit on the couch
[18:13] <Brazen_Sand> limit on the carpet
[18:13] <Brazen_Sand> limit on the decorative vases!
[18:14] <Brazen_Sand> See? I probably made him roll for Limit right there
[18:16] <~Anshu> at least he's got an empty track now >.>
[18:16] <Brazen_Sand> Bad Nomoe, you made Brazen cry!
[18:19] <~Anshu> <.<
[18:20] <~Anshu> >.>
[18:20] <Brazen_Sand> Snow, you want to get in on this?
[18:21] <Bright_Snow> Why? It isn't like she'd be coming to see Nomoe
[18:21] <Bright_Snow> Though it is fun to watch
[18:21] <Brazen_Sand> Grrr
[18:21] <Bright_Snow> I was expecting this scene through most of the earlier conversation
[18:21] <Brazen_Sand> *Messanger* GET OVER HERE
[18:22] <Nomoe_Hideaki> typing
[18:22] <Brazen_Sand> oh okay
[18:22] <Brazen_Sand> I could send Snow a messanger and try to talk to her. Are you really tired?
[18:23] <Brazen_Sand> You know, with my sorcery.
[18:23] <Brazen_Sand> Later, I mean
[18:23] <Brazen_Sand> When Brazen is away from Nomoe
[18:24] <Brazen_Sand> Would that be alright?
[18:25] <Bright_Snow> Talking to her is fine. Dioable. But I think this is something you are better off leaving to Wandering
[18:25] <Bright_Snow> As she is capable of subtly
[18:25] <Brazen_Sand> I'm not sure
[18:26] <Brazen_Sand> Wnadering doesn't know either of you
[18:26] <Brazen_Sand> She doesn't even know who Nomoe IS
[18:27] <Brazen_Sand> Well, she knows Snow, actually
[18:27] <Brazen_Sand> durp
[18:28] <~Anshu> Well, Brazen could talk to Wandering and have her talk to Snow?
[18:28] <~Anshu> but all right
[18:28] <~Anshu> we're ending here
[18:28] <Bright_Snow> Also esthetically it is better you act on Nomoe and Wandering acts on Snow
[18:28] <Bright_Snow> It tends to be how it is done in real life
[18:29] <Brazen_Sand> You just saw what happened when I tried to act on Nomoe
[18:29] <Brazen_Sand> With his Limit Condition, he could end up trying to kill my entire family
[18:30] <~Anshu> just as a note: I have left the IC channel. If anything more should happen there, it will not be archived by me.
[18:31] <Brazen_Sand> Seeya later, Taurus
[18:32] <~Anshu> good night Session Close (#celestialdeliberativeOOC): Fri Feb 18 18:33:36 2011 -0700
