[03:34:04] [BethE] Hi guys! *HUGS*
[03:34:08] [Angelo] Hi Beth! *Hugs*
[03:34:14] [Verithe] Hi!
[03:34:28] [BethE] RN will be on in a moment; he is finishing killing zombies in a computer game.
[03:34:50] [Angelo] oh well, ok
[03:35:11] [Verithe] Zombies! D:
[03:35:47] [BethE] We are also having a thunderstorm at the moment.
[03:35:52] [BethE] How are the both of you?
[03:36:07] [Angelo] Me fine and you?
[03:36:25] [Verithe] Doing pretty well.
[03:36:42] [BethE] Not too bad.
[03:37:44] --]| Random_Nerd (~scree-fic@MagicStar-D88E7E90.hsd1.il.comcast.net) has joined #nobilis
[03:37:53] [Angelo] Hi RN
[03:40:52] [Angelo] do you remember the name of the tree man? Triffin or triffid boy?
[03:41:04] [BethE] Alan.
[03:41:13] [Angelo] danke!
[03:41:27] [Random_Nerd] Alan.
[03:41:38] [BethE] I don't see Alan doing very well on TV. He seems someone who wouldn't care about who he insults.
[03:42:19] [Angelo] uhm... maybe... then there hare here tv show based on insult’s launch... :-(
[03:43:49] [Angelo] RN, annoying question 1: secondary domain are real estates or they overlap with some other power primary estate?
[03:44:10] [Random_Nerd] They are real insomuch as you can do miracles of them.
[03:44:24] [Random_Nerd] But they aren't estates of your Imperator, and there may either be another Noble of them, or none.
[03:44:52] [Angelo] ok the but was the answer I need :-)
[03:45:50] [Angelo] and question 2: Patterns say last session: "A SNAIL THAT A _NEW GOD_ MADE" well Vulcan is a new god? not an old one?
[03:46:21] [Angelo] (just for the sake of knowing the answer, that will not change anything)
[03:46:44] [BethE] Well, isn't Vulcan a New God in the sense that Entropy is one? Someone who isn't an Angel?
[03:47:28] [Random_Nerd] Yes. Vulcan is one of the new generation of gods. He's "merely" several thousand years old.
[03:47:39] [Random_Nerd] No, as in the two types of True Gods.
[03:47:53] [Random_Nerd] He was of the generation that were being eaten, and rebelled.
[03:48:21] [Random_Nerd] Page 186.
[03:49:34] --]| Knockwood (~chatzilla@75.141.252.IP) has joined #nobilis
[03:49:38] [Random_Nerd] And there's Knock.
[03:49:50] [Angelo] Hi Knock!
[03:49:52] [Knockwood] I'm sorry I'm late, I got pulled into something work-related
[03:49:55] [Knockwood] Hi all
[03:50:04] [Knockwood] Hiya Verithe
[03:50:20] [Angelo] No pro Knock... there is always the goblin camp.... :-P
[03:50:40] [Verithe] Hi!
[03:51:17] [BethE] Hi Knock!
[03:51:45] [BethE] Just a warning, there's a storm going on here, so we might have to leave at some time.
[03:51:48] [Knockwood] (Oh for god's sake, somebody spammed the hell out of my Wiki user page...)
[03:51:59] [Angelo] re reading the game last log I must underline that you Amyran Nobles are Newer that Ftisk *BUT* you all before enNoblement have had a human life.. Ftisk was created as a machine and immediately enNobled 3years ago so It is 3 years old
[03:52:30] [Knockwood] ah.
[03:53:05] [Random_Nerd] Shadows is in a similar category. He's been a Noble a bit longer than the PCs, but he's younger in years.
[03:53:48] [Angelo] Shadows isn't basically human too? BTW how much was old when enNobled?
[03:54:00] [Knockwood] subtle yet important distinction. :)
[03:54:10] [Random_Nerd] Well, he's human. But he was college age.
[03:54:19] [Knockwood] wait, that would mean he's a teenager
[03:54:31] [BethE] Did Ftisk interact a lot with the people of his Chancel?
[03:54:42] [Random_Nerd] He's the guy who got into college early because he got advanced, and so was in grad school when most folks would have been in college. Only, instead of grad school, he got Ennobled.
[03:54:51] [Random_Nerd] Yeah, late teens.
[03:55:05] [BethE] So now he's working on his dissertation in Summonings?
[03:55:08] [Angelo] no, not too much, he see outside for first time with you
[03:55:08] [Random_Nerd] I don't have an exact age for him, but... say, somewhere from 18 to 20.
[03:55:41] [Random_Nerd] Of course, looking at him, all you can really tell is some of his clothing, and that he's male and between five and seven feet tall;.
[03:55:44] [Angelo] Outside mean out from his channel for Ftisk
[03:56:09] [Knockwood] can we get a definitive description of anyone from Chancel Barakiel?
[03:56:45] [Angelo] we can get 2 definitive descriptions I believe
[03:57:40] [Random_Nerd] No, you don't really know what they look like.
[03:57:56] [Random_Nerd] If you're looking at, say, Shadows, you can generally tell that it's him.
[03:58:31] [Angelo] but not details right?
[03:58:43] [BethE] Because Conq. Doesn’t seem to have as good of a sense of humor... And plus, we could tell that he was a sulking teenager when we first met him.
[03:58:52] [Knockwood] that whole Familia is ... what is it, soul-twisted?
[03:58:57] [Random_Nerd] Yeah.
[03:59:02] [Random_Nerd] Or, more properly, Barakiel is.
[03:59:31] [Random_Nerd] Or, rather, Unfathomable.
[03:59:37] [Random_Nerd] Which is Soul Twisted +.
[03:59:40] [Angelo] and his children show that property remarkably well
[04:00:48] [Random_Nerd] Anything else, before we start?
[04:01:04] =-= BethE is now known as Theresa
[04:01:10] [Random_Nerd] (Oh, and remember that you can't spot them with the Sight. Theresa's Gift still works, though.)
[04:01:18] [Knockwood] what's the status of those kids in the hospital?
[04:01:48] [Knockwood] and while we're at it, any word on our various MIA players?
[04:01:54] =-= Knockwood is now known as DanteE
[04:02:01] [Angelo] Can I "purchase " a new secondary estate anytime or only between chapters?
[04:02:42] [Random_Nerd] Hmm... you can get it any time. It'll just be taken as understood that Ftisk's had it all of this chapter, and just hasn't used or mentioned it yet.
[04:02:49] [DanteE] Actually I've been debating whether I should 'tool up' into a combat monster...
[04:03:08] [Random_Nerd] By getting a good combat gift?
[04:03:10] [Random_Nerd] Hmm.
[04:03:12] [Angelo] yes Dante do it definitively... you are Courage after all
[04:03:59] [DanteE] Ayep. Heck, maybe we could get a decent create-energy gift hooked to a focus: backpack nuclear accelerator. :)
[04:04:33] [DanteE] it fits Laz, and he might enjoy going Shard-busting
[04:05:49] [DanteE] then again... what would it take to _trap_ a Shard, as opposed to hurting it?
[04:06:07] [Theresa] Depends on the Shard type, I'd think.
[04:06:42] [Angelo] I'm on for the chocolate covered type!
[04:07:04] [Verithe] Yum!
[04:07:50] [Angelo] ahah
[04:07:56] [Random_Nerd] Easiest with a Strategist. If you run them out of power, they lose certain immunities that others take for granted.
[04:08:24] [Angelo] btw tangent RN question: If an excru take away my Data domain (sec estate) what happen to creation?
[04:08:27] [DanteE] Reminds me: have you seen the latest Peculiar Book?
[04:08:36] [Random_Nerd] Seen, haven't read.
[04:08:39] [Random_Nerd] Just had time to skim.
[04:08:48] [Random_Nerd] And it still isn't the one with Purity and Merit.
[04:08:57] [Angelo] With one of the 2? The serious or the what if one?
[04:09:05] [Random_Nerd] Hmm.
[04:09:16] [Random_Nerd] If Data got taken, I'd say...
[04:09:21] [DanteE] Yeah, but it is the one which might throw a monkey wrench into the ongoing plot...
[04:09:22] [Random_Nerd] Hmm. There aren't rules for that exactly, I don't think.
[04:09:31] [DanteE] Don't get taken.
[04:09:48] [Random_Nerd] It'd adversely affect creation, but I'm going to houserule that it wouldn't be /quite/ as bad as if it got taken as a primary domain.
[04:09:54] [Random_Nerd] It'd damage things, but not break them.
[04:10:11] [Angelo] well /me like!
[04:10:59] [DanteE] on the other hand it does have the stats for Hugh Rosewood. :)
[04:11:38] [Random_Nerd] That ogre gift is a crazy one.
[04:12:24] [Theresa] Hmm?
[04:12:54] [DanteE] the BO From Hell?
[04:14:25] [Random_Nerd] Let me look it up.
[04:15:11] [Angelo] Ogre have a gift that is debated on rpg.net
[04:15:20] [Theresa] (We were going to be going to visit the crazy angel tonight, yes? I know, that doesn't narrow it down...)
[04:15:30] [Angelo] that let them have aspect 9 for a narrow set of things
[04:16:21] [Random_Nerd] Anyway, I'm ready to start if you are.
[04:16:46] [Angelo] I'm ready!
[04:16:55] [DanteE] Ready
[04:17:07] [Random_Nerd] ________START_____________
[04:17:24] [Random_Nerd] Everyone, you hear a grinding sound in one of the walls.
[04:17:42] [Random_Nerd] A toothed opening appears in it, and coughs up Ftisk's Ophaniel doll.
[04:17:52] =-= YOU are now known as Ftisk
[04:18:12] [Ftisk] "Oh, already?... was fast!"
[04:18:32] [DanteE] (Conference room, then?)
[04:18:34] [Random_Nerd] The Pigeon withdraws into the wall.
[04:18:38] [Theresa] (Imperator Barbie! "The War is _hard_!")
[04:19:00] [Ftisk] (near the room I believe we moved to avoid patterns hear us)
[04:19:33] [Ftisk] (to T: lol)
[04:19:38] [DanteE] "So, does this mean Shadows made you a Shadow-Ofaniel?"
[04:20:21] [Random_Nerd] The doll hisses at Dante.
[04:20:28] [Ftisk] "I think yes... but was expecting this will need more time to do... Well We go to Shadows or to Ja Phon firts?"
[04:21:05] [Ftisk] "Quiet Ophy..."
[04:21:12] * Ftisk tries to caress the doll
[04:21:32] [Random_Nerd] It hisses, and skitters across the floor away from Ftisk.
[04:21:54] * Theresa blinks.
[04:21:56] * Ftisk is a bit puzzled
[04:21:59] [DanteE] "... unless that _is_ the Shadow-Ofaniel..."
[04:22:31] * Ftisk ldiv on the doll... is part of my estate?
[04:22:51] [Random_Nerd] (No.)
[04:22:57] [Ftisk] (aha!)
[04:23:09] [Ftisk] "Seem that this is the alt one!"
[04:23:23] * Ftisk aspect try to take the doll
[04:23:40] [Ftisk] (Aspect 3)
[04:23:54] [DanteE] (Would our Warding mess with it if we grabbed it?)
[04:24:09] [Random_Nerd] Ftisk catches the doll. It tries to scratch at Ftisk's eyestalks with its gears.
[04:24:18] [Random_Nerd] (You can try.)
[04:24:43] * Ftisk murmur quietly trying to calm down Ophy
[04:25:25] [Random_Nerd] It spits metal shavings at Ftisk.
[04:25:30] [DanteE] "That's not the one you sent, Ftisk.
[04:25:45] [DanteE] "I think you should just do what you intend to do with it.
[04:26:06] [DanteE] "... which means we should head for Jupiter, right?"
[04:26:06] [Ftisk] "yeah, I see..."
[04:26:26] [Random_Nerd] The doll-creature stops moving.
[04:27:10] [Ftisk] "What...? " (I'm nurturing her)
[04:27:36] [Random_Nerd] With Aspect 2, you can feel it moving faintly, a few of the inner pieces twitching. But it seems to be playing dead.
[04:27:53] [Ftisk] (lol)
[04:28:12] [Ftisk] "Well... let's make it quickly"
[04:28:15] [Theresa] (Why Jupiter?)
[04:28:44] [Theresa] (And now I'm imagining the doll playing dead and then going "RAWR!!" and leaping for Ftisk's eyes...)
[04:28:45] [Ftisk] (I want to send Ophy back to her home and need Shadow help)
[04:28:50] [DanteE] (Because IIRC Ftisk wants to Anchor the doll, then send it across the Wall.)
[04:28:54] [Theresa] (Ahh.)
[04:29:18] [Ftisk] "Dante, can you build up a bit of her courage?"
[04:29:26] [Ftisk] "please?"
[04:31:03] * DanteE zaps the O-doll with a Ghost-LC-Courage
[04:31:56] * Ftisk gently poke the doll "Came on Ophy, don't play death wit me..."
[04:31:59] [Random_Nerd] The doll makes a grinding sound, and then coughs up a few tiny round things.
[04:32:46] [Ftisk] "Wait a sec! She is coughing all the time... Can't be that she is injured?"
[04:32:57] [Random_Nerd] They look like little Ophaniels about the size of a marble, but they aren't moving.
[04:33:13] * DanteE picks up and examines the mini-Os
[04:33:56] [Random_Nerd] It's inanimate, as far as you can tell. It looks like a tiny, partially-melted-and-reformed Ophaniel.
[04:34:22] [Ftisk] "ohhh fascinating..."
[04:34:30] [Theresa] "Interesting."
[04:34:45] * Theresa is kind of reminded of how the Boss makes duplicates.
[04:34:55] [DanteE] "Hm... that's kinda the opposite of what Kudzu would do
[04:35:11] [Ftisk] "Well, its time to anchorize!"
[04:35:23] [Ftisk] "Why what will do Kudzu?"
[04:35:50] [DanteE] "Whenever mini-Kudzu's show up, he eats them."
[04:36:09] [Theresa] "Could have an upset stomach."
[04:36:12] * Ftisk takes some oily water from one of my eyestalk
[04:36:39] [DanteE] (maybe I should buy a Sense-Disaster-Coming power...)
[04:36:47] [Ftisk] "Well can inter-world travel have this effect?"
[04:37:06] [Ftisk] "Here we are"
[04:37:35] * Ftisk put the oily water in (I hope the right) Ophy orifice
[04:37:38] [Theresa] (It would constantly be going off.)
[04:37:53] [Random_Nerd] (So, Ftisk loves this... strange little creature?)
[04:38:18] [Ftisk] (Just because she remind it of the great less strage one)
[04:38:38] [Ftisk] (and is a little more a hate that love)
[04:39:14] [Random_Nerd] (It has to be genuine love, or genuine hatred. Otherwise, the ritual just won't do anything.)
[04:39:25] [Random_Nerd] (Now, if you tell me that Ftisk feels either, that's your call.)
[04:39:35] [Random_Nerd] (But if you don't think he does, then it won't do much.)
[04:41:00] [Ftisk] (well now he has too little time to bond with her. Now the ritual will fail, later will be another story)
[04:41:08] [Random_Nerd] (Okay. That works.)
[04:41:24] [Random_Nerd] The little creature stares up at Ftisk for a moment, but then coughs up the oil.
[04:41:42] [DanteE] (About how big is it?)
[04:41:50] [Random_Nerd] (How big was the doll, Ftisk?)
[04:42:17] [Theresa] (Breadbox? Puppy? Backpack?)
[04:42:28] [Ftisk] (same scale as Ftisk.. she is made to have sex with for Ftisk... so she is big as a plate sized snail)
[04:43:08] [DanteE] (TMI, Ftisk... :) )
[04:43:18] [Ftisk] (TMI? What mean?)
[04:43:26] [DanteE] (Too Much Information)
[04:43:27] [Random_Nerd] (Too Much Information.)
[04:43:44] [DanteE] (jinx)
[04:43:48] [Ftisk] (Oh sorry...)
[04:44:12] [Theresa] (It's in a joking manner, Angelo.  :) )
[04:44:13] [Ftisk] "Crud!"
[04:44:23] * Ftisk lower a bit"
[04:44:28] [Theresa] (I don't think we realized that she was going to be a sex partner for Ftisk.)
[04:44:38] [DanteE] (Given that, though, there are certain values of 'love' for which the ritual would work...)
[04:44:43] [Ftisk] "Seem that I and she must pass some time together"
[04:45:04] * Theresa pats Ftisk. "It takes time to bond with an Anchor. I haven't been able to do it yet."
[04:45:22] [Random_Nerd] Dollphaniel: *A sound like a saw cutting into metal*
[04:45:31] [Ftisk] (doll was also made to be one sex partern.. representing all what catch and feel interesting in Ophaniel)
[04:46:37] * Ftisk is alarmed and check if anything is all right with her
[04:47:00] [DanteE] (Is Ftisk Durant or better?)
[04:47:09] [Random_Nerd] Dollphaniel revs it's gears and rolls away.
[04:48:52] [DanteE] "Better grab that before it goes down the stairs..."
[04:49:00] [Ftisk] (no Ftisk is a plain noble)
[04:49:38] [Random_Nerd] Dollphaniel extends a sawbladed gear from its body, and starts cutting through the door.
[04:50:03] * Ftisk aspect grab dollophaniel
[04:50:32] [Theresa] "Industrious little girl."
[04:50:58] * DanteE blows a RMP on a Realm-LDiv all about DollPhaniel.
[04:51:10] * Ftisk pat her
[04:51:18] [Ftisk] (her is Dollphaniel)
[04:52:36] [Random_Nerd] (Dollphaniel is a thing summoned by Shadows to his specifications. It has Aspect 1, no miraculous immunity in the manner of an anchor, and no other attributes. It is Durant, and has the gift Lesser Creation of Things That Might Keep Ftisk Distracted Until Shadows Sobers Up, simple miracle, local things only, wide variety of uses, uncommon.)
[04:53:16] [Ftisk] (I love the gift!)
[04:53:39] [DanteE] "Ftisk, your toy is toying with you."
[04:53:45] [Random_Nerd] (And what would it say about the world if that was a common gift?)
[04:53:57] [Theresa] (Do we have a timetable as to how long it will take Shadows to sober up? I mean, was there miraculous tequila involved?)
[04:54:07] [Random_Nerd] (You do not.)
[04:54:12] [DanteE] (and is Lesser Creation of Distractions really Uncommon? :D )
[04:54:21] [Theresa] (If it was Common, I would question Shadows about his drinking problem.)
[04:54:32] [Ftisk] (lol!)
[04:54:37] [Random_Nerd] (This is specific to stuff Shadows thinks might distract Ftisk.)
[04:54:48] [Random_Nerd] (It probably wouldn't work on other people, except by chance.)
[04:54:51] [Ftisk] (like the chainsaw?)
[04:55:06] [Random_Nerd] (And the metal dust, the mini-Ophaniels, and so on.)
[04:55:44] [Random_Nerd] Dollphaniel coughs up a portable hard drive.
[04:55:57] [Ftisk] (reminder to myself: never ask something to shadows when he is not sober)
[04:56:14] [Ftisk] (I don't know these infos right?)
[04:56:20] [Theresa] "Ouch."
[04:56:20] [Random_Nerd] (Correct.)
[04:56:39] [Ftisk] "Oh nooo! she is losing pieces!!!!"
[04:56:55] [Ftisk] me try to 'reinsert' the drive inside"
[04:57:03] [Ftisk] (franctically)
[04:57:12] [Random_Nerd] There doesn't seem to be a place for it to go. Dollphaniel tries to roll away.
[04:57:13] [DanteE] "Hold up, Ftisk."
[04:57:35] [DanteE] "I don't think that's a part of her. It. Whatever."
[04:57:40] * Ftisk roll a eyelash to Dante "huh?"
[04:58:08] [DanteE] "Somehow Shadows gave this thing a mess-with-Ftisk gift."
[04:58:28] [Ftisk] "How do you know?"
[04:58:38] * DanteE gently grabs it...
[04:58:49] [DanteE] "Did a quick divination a minute ago."
[04:58:57] [Ftisk] "oh..."
[04:59:08] * Ftisk fell dumbfolded
[04:59:25] [Theresa] "How was Shadows when you talked to him about this?"
[04:59:29] [Random_Nerd] It coughs up a note that says "On that hard drive is a copy of On Serving the Nobilis, by Luc Ginneas, and a bunch of pictures of snails having sex, which have been photoshopped to look like they're made of metal."
[05:00:11] * Ftisk quietly take the Hdd...
[05:00:39] [Theresa] "That is...greatly specific."
[05:00:40] [DanteE] "Oh."
[05:00:42] [Ftisk] "He was a bit high.. you now... out with family and all "
[05:00:52] [DanteE] "High?"
[05:01:18] [Ftisk] "drunk?"
[05:01:40] [Ftisk] "... not like a monkey.. or worst just a bit..."
[05:01:44] [DanteE] "That explains a lot."
[05:01:52] [Theresa] "Ahh. We should probably wait for him to sober up some. Although this is...quite creative."
[05:01:55] * DanteE looks over Dollphaniel
[05:02:05] [Random_Nerd] (Noble Rule #427. Don't summon while you're drunk. Rule #428. Don't stand next to someone who's summoning while drunk.)
[05:02:17] [Ftisk] (lol)
[05:02:59] [Ftisk] "Yes... can be the better course of actions"
[05:03:16] [Ftisk] "So we go to Ja Phon and then see if Shadows is sober?"
[05:03:40] [Ftisk] (And I take Dollphaniel with me so she is under check)
[05:03:43] [DanteE] "Depends. What do we do with this?"
[05:03:52] [Theresa] "Might be a better idea."
[05:04:03] [Ftisk] "I take her with me so she is under control!"
[05:04:18] [Theresa] "If it was created with that specific purpose, maybe by communicating with it that Ftisk is distracted will help its attitude?"
[05:04:45] [Random_Nerd] (The creature itself doesn't care. I don't think it even knows what the Gift does.)
[05:04:54] [Random_Nerd] (It just triggers it, somewhat randomly.)
[05:05:12] [DanteE] "Wait a sec..."
[05:05:15] [Theresa] (Ah. We should bring a baggie to catch its...creations.)
[05:05:37] * DanteE turns so Dollphaniel can't see Ftisk...
[05:05:39] [Ftisk] (baggie?)
[05:06:35] [Random_Nerd] Dollphaniel coughs up a crayon drawing of Kudzu riding a seahorse.
[05:07:02] [DanteE] "I wonder if maybe it'll calm down if Ftisk isn't around..."
[05:07:37] [Ftisk] "... great a would be anchor that can't stand my presence..."
[05:07:48] [Theresa] (A small bag, usually plastic. The -ie can mean little.)
[05:07:53] [Random_Nerd] (It doesn't particularly care about him, it just does the miracle when it's excited.)
[05:08:28] [Ftisk] (ah, get it!.. lol)
[05:09:01] [Ftisk] "Well, let's try..."
[05:09:04] [Theresa] "We could have Sam watch her."
[05:09:15] * Ftisk show before Dollphaniel
[05:10:46] [DanteE] (Where is Sam?)
[05:11:00] [DanteE] "Or William, if he's come out of hiding."
[05:11:48] [Random_Nerd] (Sam and William are both in the building, but not in the room.)
[05:11:49] [Theresa] "I don't know...it might scare him out of having children."
[05:11:54] [DanteE] (Hm... looking for a pic of Ofaniel, found this: http://euler.slu.edu/escher/index.php/Image:Concentric-rinds.jpg )
[05:12:17] [DanteE] "Or prepare him for it."
[05:12:34] [Ftisk] "In case she must be watched I can remain here and send with you a bunch of machinery as Electricity and Copper do"
[05:12:36] * DanteE takes Dollphaniel to Sam & William.
[05:13:27] [Random_Nerd] (Well, you could leave Gnomely here, or send him with the others.)
[05:13:39] [DanteE] "Theresa could always make a cage... it would need to be strong, though, he has the Aspect of a beginner Noble."
[05:13:48] [Ftisk] (Gnomely is busy with the show)
[05:14:39] [Ftisk] "No!, not a cage... she is not a beast... she is a individual and have rights!"
[05:14:56] [Theresa] "Well, we still have Monty's room..."
[05:15:07] [DanteE] "Horse is in there."
[05:15:10] [Ftisk] (with the hole?)
[05:15:45] [Ftisk] "Well is big enough to have very dim chances to meet each other"
[05:15:45] [Verithe] (Wait...who serves a Wild Imperator here?)
[05:15:55] [Ftisk] (not me!)
[05:16:04] [DanteE] (ah, us...)
[05:16:17] [Theresa] (True. no cages.)
[05:16:29] [Verithe] (Which is why I find this amusing...:))
[05:16:51] [Random_Nerd] (*smiles mysteriously*)
[05:17:07] [Theresa] (Thank you, dear... */sarcasm*)
[05:17:08] [DanteE] (is it doing anything while I'm holding it?)
[05:17:16] [Ftisk] (we can retcon this... )
[05:17:18] [Random_Nerd] (Playing dead.)
[05:17:34] [Random_Nerd] (They didn't go far enough for the imposed Code to bop them on the noses.)
[05:17:45] [Random_Nerd] (Those with the Wild code can /talk/ about cages and the like.)
[05:18:01] [Verithe] (True)
[05:18:11] [Theresa] "So it's a choice between Monty's room or having the Aides play babysitter." *thinks* "Unless your sister would like to play, Dante?" *smile*
[05:18:17] [DanteE] "Hold up..."
[05:18:40] [Random_Nerd] Sam: "What's up?"
[05:18:43] [Random_Nerd] William looks up from his book.
[05:18:46] [DanteE] "Theresa, gimme a wooden Ftisk, a strong one."
[05:19:27] [DanteE] "Well, we have a miniature shadow Ofaniel here with the strength of a Noble and a gift for messing with Ftisk."
[05:19:41] [Theresa] "Do you want it to be able to move or do you just want a carving?"
[05:19:50] [Random_Nerd] Sam: "It's amazing what you can get on ebay."
[05:20:04] [DanteE] "Carving should work, but it would need to survive this thing's saws..."
[05:20:15] [DanteE] (rimshot)
[05:20:15] [Ftisk] "sam... is not from eBay"
[05:20:24] [DanteE] (and that should go on the quotes page)
[05:20:34] [Random_Nerd] Sam: "Amazon?"
[05:20:35] [Theresa] "Shadows was drunk...let's just leave it at that."
[05:20:51] [Random_Nerd] W: "Is it going to explode, or eat our souls, or throw up on the carpet?"
[05:21:06] [DanteE] "Dunno yet."
[05:21:13] [Theresa] "Don't know, don't think so and possibly. Just don't open any hard drives."
[05:21:13] [Ftisk] "seem that she have a perk to mess with me..."
[05:21:34] [Random_Nerd] W: "In that case, I'd like to pre-emptively request some sort of miraculous protection, at least for the time it's in here with me."
[05:22:23] * Theresa cracks her fingers and snaps. (LC of a moving wooden Preserved Ftisk with real Ftisk-like action!)
[05:22:41] [Random_Nerd] Sam: "Ditto. That thing looks like it could take off an arm, if it tried to roll through me."
[05:22:45] [Theresa] (Oh, yeah, Will's going to make a _great_ dad someday...  ;P )
[05:22:48] * DanteE sets the Dollphaniel in front of the Ftisk carving...
[05:23:06] [DanteE] "Checking something..."
[05:23:10] [Ftisk] "I look with apprehension..."
[05:23:30] [Random_Nerd] (I was going to say that kids aren't things summoned from outside creation by someone with a serious drunk on...)
[05:23:38] [Random_Nerd] (But... shall I say that not /all/ of them are?)
[05:23:41] [Theresa] (*Wood-Ftisk waves at metal-Ftisk!*)
[05:23:53] * Ftisk weave back
[05:23:56] [Random_Nerd] Dollphaniel ignores the wooden Ftisk.
[05:24:04] [Random_Nerd] And continues to play dead.
[05:24:05] [Theresa] *Wooden-Ftisk droops*
[05:24:42] [Theresa] "Hmm, looks like we may have to take her with us, if we can't keep her occupied here."
[05:25:02] * Ftisk nod "Yes yes"
[05:25:12] [Random_Nerd] Dollphaniel: *does nothing*
[05:25:24] [DanteE] "Yeah, I was expecting it to at least pop a drill out and ..."
[05:25:43] * Ftisk lc of machinery on the room.. what is different from before?
[05:26:17] [Ftisk] (alas what Dollphaniel made?)
[05:26:24] [DanteE] (Question: if Ftisk makes a robot, can he use it to come along with us?)
[05:26:38] [Ftisk] (was my proposal some lines ago
[05:26:46] [Random_Nerd] (Yeah.)
[05:27:00] [DanteE] (just checking if he could do it without Anchoring it)
[05:27:04] [Ftisk] ) (and yes I believe I can use it as E&C do...)
[05:27:07] [Random_Nerd] (The only thing that Dollphaniel made that counts as a machine is the hard drive.)
[05:27:20] [DanteE] (Where is the original O-doll, though?)
[05:27:42] [Ftisk] (or his body is inhabited or is at Shadows place)
[05:27:49] [Random_Nerd] (You could. A LC could make a robot that could move around, manipulate objects, and play sounds and so on, and miracles of Data could control it.)
[05:27:58] [Random_Nerd] (You don't have the original doll back yet.)
[05:28:07] [DanteE] "Oh, wait... Ftisk, can you 'ride' the Ofaniel doll you sent to Shadows?"
[05:28:29] [Ftisk] "OK, I remain here with Sam and Will and send a robot with you"
[05:28:35] [Ftisk] "uhm.. I can try"
[05:29:05] * Ftisk try contact O-doll in locus Barakien
[05:29:46] [Random_Nerd] (It's there. Someone seems to have hung their coat on it.)
[05:29:52] [DanteE] (The O-doll is watching Shadows, wondering if it's because of his Estate that he's wearing a lampshade... :) )
[05:30:26] [Ftisk] "Yes Dante I can control the original Doll"
[05:31:02] [DanteE] (Oh, wait, we're not going to Shadows yet... duh)
[05:31:33] [Ftisk] "Well, we.. err you go to Ja Phon then?"
[05:32:07] [DanteE] "Yeah, once you put together something you can use to come along."
[05:32:54] [DanteE] (Hm... I can make a little doll out of daggers...)
[05:32:56] * Ftisk lc a robot ( http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/2205/toshigordianpic03qj4.jpg the red one )
[05:33:11] [Random_Nerd] (How tall is it, and what can it do?)
[05:33:59] [Ftisk] (is 2,2 meter tall, can move and talk and listen and stop)
[05:34:21] [DanteE] (So, tall side of human?)
[05:34:30] [Random_Nerd] (Remember that you can include a lesser preservation, too, to make it durable.)
[05:34:54] [Ftisk] (ohh I forgot, well throw the preservation in then, thank you)
[05:35:10] [Random_Nerd] (And when using it, stay out of the Auctoriti of people with high Spirit.)
[05:36:03] [Ftisk] (right! )
[05:36:08] [DanteE] (uh... including us?)
[05:36:18] [Ftisk] (yes you included)
[05:36:25] [Random_Nerd] (None of you is that strong. With a robot, Ftisk only needs ghost miracles to steer it.)
[05:36:36] [Random_Nerd] (And he has... Domain 4 of Data, I think?)
[05:37:00] [Ftisk] (no Data at 2 Machinery at 4)
[05:37:32] [Random_Nerd] (Ah. Then avoid all Nobles and Imperators, at least by a couple feet.)
[05:37:52] [Ftisk] (roger!)
[05:38:39] [Ftisk] from the robot "I'm ready"
[05:38:45] [DanteE] "So... I think we'll be going to see Ja Phon."
[05:38:47] [Random_Nerd] William: "Interesting."
[05:38:51] [Random_Nerd] Sam: "Hoow does that work?"
[05:39:27] [Ftisk] Stero "It's the same trick Electricity and Coper use to came here with Luc"
[05:39:51] [Random_Nerd] Sam: "I don't know how he does that."
[05:40:09] [Ftisk] "He control an expression of his estate with gost miracles both to listen and to move /spoke"
[05:40:24] [Random_Nerd] S: "Ah, cool. Good luck with Ja Phon."
[05:40:25] * Ftisk blink "It's my first try"
[05:40:52] [DanteE] "So, how do we get there?"
[05:41:21] * Ftisk look at Sam awaiting a response
[05:41:23] [Random_Nerd] W: "He isn't on-Earth. That would be far too risky for the Light."
[05:41:47] [Random_Nerd] S: "Let's see. Can you guys fly, or teleport, or anything like that?"
[05:42:14] [Ftisk] "I can create a flying machine"
[05:42:17] [Theresa] "Sam, can you get me some more info on the show that Alan the transformed tree is working on, while we're gone? I don't want his show to put the work that Lesson and his crew and the shrinks have been doing for the transformed in a bad light."
[05:42:40] [Random_Nerd] W: "Airplane might work, but be sure to bring plenty of fuel."
[05:43:01] [Random_Nerd] Sam: "Okay. I'll get on it."
[05:43:06] [DanteE] "... should we go ahead and whomp together a warp drive?"
[05:43:09] [Ftisk] "how much is plenty?"
[05:43:09] [Random_Nerd] Sam: "Want it now, or when you get back?"
[05:43:35] [Theresa] "When we get back."
[05:43:43] [Ftisk] "A week of travel?"
[05:43:50] [Random_Nerd] William: "Do you think you could convince a Magister of the Light that your visit is likely to help Ymera Ja Phon?"
[05:44:35] [Ftisk] "yes... well maybe but yes is more positive!"
[05:45:14] [Random_Nerd] William looks at Dante and Theresa.
[05:45:22] [Theresa] "We would like to talk to him in the course of our investigations for a member of the Council."
[05:46:08] [Random_Nerd] W: "That won't help. Might even hurt. But if they think there's any reasonable chance you can help him.... they'll help you."
[05:46:11] [Ftisk] (I fell that Will now know how much seriously he must treat Ftisk... ie: ignoring it is usually the right thing to do :-P )
[05:46:42] [DanteE] "Hm."
[05:46:59] * Theresa thinks for a moment. "Well, we have experience talking with those who have come through the Wall. And we did help calm down Caesar on Dionyl. Would that help?"
[05:47:25] [Random_Nerd] W: "That will do it. That was at least somewhat similar, and you did help him. Shall I make contact with an envoy of the Light?"
[05:47:35] [DanteE] "Oh...
[05:48:03] [DanteE] "We know how to get contact with the other side of the Wall, sort of...
[05:48:11] [DanteE] "... but we need Shadows for it."
[05:48:52] [Ftisk] (we have an addiction here! ... we are shadows dependent /rimshot)
[05:48:53] [Random_Nerd] W: "There are other summoners. I imagine the Light probably still has some of the best ones."
[05:49:22] [Theresa] "Yes, please, William."
[05:50:13] [Random_Nerd] William walks to his bookshelf, and pulls a book off the shelf. He leafs through it for a moment.
[05:50:13] [DanteE] "Hm. So, if we can get word from Shadows on exactly what he was doing when he used our paper to contact the other side, we can give that information to their summoners and thereby help Ja Phon recover pieces of his memory... maybe."
[05:50:41] [Random_Nerd] He opens it to a flower. "Theresa, would you please create this one for me?"
[05:50:54] [Theresa] "Let's talk to him first and then see what we can do to help him. Don't want to get their hopes up too high."
[05:51:06] * Theresa LC. "Here you go, William."
[05:51:19] [Random_Nerd] William holds it in his hands.
[05:51:32] [Random_Nerd] William: "You know that if you make things worse, it will go badly for you, right?"
[05:51:59] [DanteE] "That's a law of the universe, William."
[05:52:07] [DanteE] "Except for management."
[05:52:16] [Random_Nerd] William nods, and seems to concentrate.
[05:53:18] [Random_Nerd] W: "Dominus, I beg your attention. I am a member of the Society of Aides, and believe that I may have a way to help ease the sufferings and madness of Ja Phon."
[05:53:20] [Random_Nerd] William waits.
[05:54:07] [DanteE] "Oh... we should give a protective miracle to the Aides in case the doll gets loose..."
[05:54:21] * Ftisk try to pamper Dollphaniel
[05:54:54] [Random_Nerd] William: "They are the ones who were able to assist a memory-lost Imperator reach a greater coherence of purpose."
[05:54:56] [Random_Nerd] He waits.
[05:55:36] [Ftisk] "I'm here in case anything happen to the doll"
[05:55:51] [Random_Nerd] William: "I believe they are ready now. If you are willing to assist them in reaching the place where Ymera Ja Phon rests, please give me some sign."
[05:56:25] [Ftisk] (someone inhabit the doll!)
[05:57:11] [DanteE] (we'll probably come back to a Pile O'Interesting Stuff as is)
[05:57:13] [Random_Nerd] William: "Very well. As the agent of the Nobles of Locus Amyra, I give you leave to open a gateway for them between their current location, and their destination."
[05:57:42] [Random_Nerd] A patch of wall, about six feet by six feet, starts to gleam and sparkle.
[05:58:11] [Ftisk] "That must be the gateway"
[05:58:22] [Random_Nerd] William: "I believe that the Gatemaker has prepared that as your method of transportation."
[05:59:06] * DanteE examines the wall...
[05:59:12] [Theresa] "Thank you, William." *enters*
[05:59:21] * DanteE follows Theresa
[05:59:51] [Ftisk] Robot: "very well." waver to the aides an to myself *enter*
[05:59:53] [Random_Nerd] (And do you mind if I stop here? My brain is a bit melty.)
[06:00:01] [Random_Nerd] (And it seems as good a spot as any.)
[06:00:12] [DanteE] (Sure, why not.)
[06:00:20] [Ftisk] (ok, but Can I do one last think as Ftisk?)
[06:00:50] [Random_Nerd] (Yes.)
[06:01:10] [Ftisk] when the other leave the chancell all alone...
[06:02:29] * Ftisk lCreate a SpiderBot big like a chiwawa that seem a blackwidow without durant that will go to Alan show, steal and incinerate every one sinister shoe and then trash the buffet
[06:03:22] [Ftisk] (we ca stop now ^^ )
[06:03:23] [DanteE] (?!?)
[06:03:23] [Random_Nerd] (If you want it to be intelligent, you'll need a LChange. But if you'll pilot it when it has reached its destination, a LC is sufficient.)
[06:03:29] [Random_Nerd] _________STOP___________
[06:03:45] [Theresa] (Wow, every left shoe?)
[06:03:51] [Ftisk] (Lc then, I’ll pilot it)
[06:03:56] [DanteE] um ... huh?
[06:04:07] [Ftisk] (yes I have time to kill ... I hope)
[06:04:16] [DanteE] Oh, the competition for Gnomely's show?
[06:04:17] =-= YOU are now known as Angelo
[06:04:34] [Angelo] right Dante! You win a Doll! :-D
[06:05:28] [DanteE] I've seen your dolls, I'll take the cash. :)
[06:05:36] [Angelo] lol
[06:06:10] [Random_Nerd] So, what did you guys think of that?
[06:06:12] [Random_Nerd] Too whimsical?
[06:06:13] [Angelo] btw you players have been aware of the sexual side of my Ophaniels dolls before today, right?
[06:06:21] [DanteE] NO.
[06:06:33] [Theresa] Dear, I have a secondary Estate in whimsy. Not too whimsical.  :)
[06:06:40] [Angelo] No, not too
[06:06:41] [Theresa] Nope, did not know that, Angelo.
[06:06:44] =-= Theresa is now known as BethE
[06:07:11] [Angelo] ohhh my!
[06:07:22] [DanteE] We're OK with having a gear-sphere popping saws and junk like an evil Inspector Gadget head... :)
[06:07:28] =-= DanteE is now known as Knockwood
[06:07:38] [Angelo] Was definitely funny!!!
[06:08:11] [Angelo] But, I believe that can became stale too quickly if overdone
[06:08:29] [Knockwood] heck, you have an Imperator-level mess-with-Dante gift. :D
[06:08:43] [Angelo] you Rn or you Angelo?
[06:09:02] [Angelo] (ambiguous is a valid answer! :-P )
[06:09:30] [Random_Nerd] I don't think I messed with Dante /this/ we..
[06:09:32] [Random_Nerd] Week.
[06:09:39] [Angelo] Verithe, what do you think of this session?
[06:10:22] [Angelo] well this leave me to mess with Dante then.. I'm honored!
[06:11:11] [Verithe] I enjoyed it! :D
[06:11:51] [Angelo] good!
[06:12:10] [Verithe] I'm still amused that the only Noble not serving a Wild Imperator was the one to object to the cage.
[06:12:12] [Knockwood] OK, why is it I can find images of everything else, but no images of Ofaniel?
[06:12:37] [Random_Nerd] Images of Ophaniel?
[06:12:54] [Knockwood] assuming you got her desc from a 'reliable' source and not your rectum...
[06:13:10] [Random_Nerd] Extractio recto meum, I'm afraid.
[06:13:17] [Angelo] don't ask me, I don't have remoded them :-P and the one linked by RN are not good?
[06:13:21] [Random_Nerd] Although I did draw heavily on the "wheels within wheels" of Ezekiel.
[06:14:16] [Knockwood] so it's a little like that image I linked earlier
[06:14:35] [Random_Nerd] Which one?
[06:14:42] [Knockwood] http://euler.slu.edu/escher/index.php/Image:Concentric-rinds.jpg
[06:15:32] [Random_Nerd] Yes, rather like that.
[06:15:44] [Random_Nerd] But less regular, more like an intricate but functional machine.
[06:16:16] [Knockwood] OK, now imagine one about a foot in diameter with the occasional saw blade popping out and hitting the wooden Ftisk. :)
[06:16:32] [Random_Nerd] Like a cross between that, a Hoberman Sphere, and the Antikythera Mechannism. If it was on fire.
[06:16:46] [Random_Nerd] Well, the fire's at the middle.
[06:16:49] [Random_Nerd] But, yes.
[06:17:31] [Angelo] well Ophaniel captured Ftisk attention.
[06:17:55] [Knockwood] 'attention'. yeah. Apparently... :)
[06:17:56] [Angelo] would be and hell to draw one picture of her
[06:18:27] [Angelo] well the dolls were an attempt to capture Ophaniel essence and reproduce her spark
[06:18:27] [Random_Nerd] That's part of what I was going for.
[06:18:39] [Random_Nerd] Angels, in this game, are intended to be somewhat hard to just mentally picture.
[06:19:04] [Angelo] but are all not falled one inherently beautiful?
[06:19:14] [Random_Nerd] Yes.
[06:19:25] [Random_Nerd] But often in strange or abstract ways.
[06:19:33] [Angelo] understood
[06:19:55] [Knockwood] Verithe, thinking of joining?
[06:20:01] [Angelo] ah, this robot experiment... this shell is more resistant that Ftisk
[06:20:25] [Knockwood] well, it's assumed Aspect 0 is still stronger than baseline human...
[06:20:50] [BethE] (Well, guys, I need to get to sleep. Good game! *HUGS* )
[06:20:56] [Knockwood] g'night Beth
[06:20:57] [Angelo] bye Beth!
[06:20:58] [Verithe] Well, I'm just watching. If there's an opening, I'd gladly join. But I'm content watching too.
[06:21:05] [Verithe] G'night!
[06:21:09] [Random_Nerd] Later, all. See you next week.
[06:21:12] [BethE] Good night!
[06:21:27] |[-- BethE has left irc2.magicstar.net (Disintegrated: All shall love me and despair?)
[06:21:28] [Knockwood] there's always an opening
[06:21:42] |[-- Random_Nerd has left irc2.magicstar.net (Disintegrated: )
[06:21:56] [Angelo] Well, with Laz on hiatus there will be room for one or two or tree.. or... ;-)
[06:22:07] [Verithe] Hehe
[06:22:22] [Angelo] are you interested in joining Vulcan Family?!?
[06:22:42] [Angelo] You'll have a very serious brother celestis! :-P
[06:23:02] [Verithe] Vulcan's family could be interesting. :)
[06:23:16] [Knockwood] or you could be yet another sibling Kudzu forgot about until now
[06:23:49] [Knockwood] have you looked over the logs?
[06:23:55] [Angelo] or both? like buddhaNinja!
[06:23:59] [Verithe] I've read them all!
[06:24:12] [Knockwood] and you still want in? :)
[06:24:22] [Verithe] Except, of course, the missing one...
[06:24:25] [Angelo] yeah Knock there are strange people around!
[06:24:38] [Verithe] If you guys'll have me. :)
[06:25:38] [Angelo] well for me is ok to have you join us.. but we need an ok from RN and Beth I think
[06:25:58] [Verithe] Of course.
[06:26:12] [Knockwood] if you can come up with a decent concept it shouldn't be a problem
[06:27:12] [Angelo] and then we will _use_ you to start an international manga traffic!!! :-P
[06:27:26] [Verithe] I'll have to work on a few.
[06:27:30] [Verithe] Hahaha
[06:28:34] [Knockwood] and we'll certainly help you flesh it out if you want
[06:28:39] [Angelo] sure!
[06:29:04] [Angelo] do you have the GWB? or the LPB?
[06:29:56] [Verithe] I have a PDF of the GWB I'm using until I can get hold of a hard copy.
[06:30:19] [Angelo] Knock you can have found a seller for your extra copy...
[06:30:52] [Knockwood] Very true. Shipping might be a problem...
[06:31:19] [Verithe] Indeed. Payment might also...
[06:31:19] [Angelo] eh, true
[06:33:10] [Knockwood] well, I might put it up on eBay soon.
[06:34:42] [Knockwood] still, JKM has said that if you can't get an actual GWB she's OK with people using the PDF. She mainly wants her game _played_.
[06:35:05] [Verithe] Yeah.
[06:35:17] [Angelo] A really open minded aptitude. I boast to her!
[06:35:46] [Verithe] Maybe I'll donate some money at Hitherby and consider the book paid for. :D
[06:36:44] [Angelo] its a solution.
[06:36:56] [Knockwood] great idea
[06:37:20] [Angelo] Ah, Verithe, you can contact RN on rpg.net he is there as Random_Nerd
[06:37:54] [Verithe] Alright. I've seen him on there every once in a while.
[06:38:07] [Angelo] and then I go to bed. Night guys!
[06:38:20] [Verithe] Take care, Angelo!
[06:38:28] [Knockwood] g'night Angelo
[06:38:35] [Knockwood] whoops, I mean good morning
[06:38:48] [Angelo] no pro Knock
[06:40:21] [Knockwood] I think I'll head out too... unless you had questions/comments/ideas, Verithe
[06:41:10] [Verithe] Nope. Take care! :)
[06:41:17] [Knockwood] g'night Verithe
[06:41:26] [Knockwood] er, good ... day. :/
[06:41:28] [Knockwood] :D
[06:41:32] [Verithe] Hehe
