10/7/18

c'thinker (GM): i'm here now.

ready to roleplay.

vardians tomb is cool but everyone having their own room underground doesnt leave as much space for individual flavor

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: How many extra corpses do we got?

moe (GM): time to eat

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Limes to eat.

Endrite: I might be a little late today.

devil's fav demon (GM): i may also not make it back at exactly 2:00

Beardbeard (GM): sorry. johns didnt tell me we were starting early

johns (GM): beardbeard where is dys

Beardbeard: away, by the looks of things

johns (GM): hmm, ok

mercuzio and gulielmus are now dead

Beardbeard: a powerful technique where you dont drop mid session by just not showing up in the first place

johns (GM): well thats fine by me then i dont have to bother with a rienzi adventure today too

we can finish ponza and then we're done for 1354

uhh so who's ready to begin

Guy of Bonisagus: im waiting for gulielmus

devil's fav demon (GM): ok hi

johns (GM): he's dead

he fell in the pit

Guy of Bonisagus: guess well be waiting a while

devil's fav demon (GM): pure treason it is.

johns (GM): if you just want to call it a day I can just roll a 1d6 to see who lives and who dies

devil's fav demon (GM): lol.

johns (GM): oh shit its dys

ffff

devil's fav demon (GM): le fuuu

johns (GM) grudgingly pulls Mercuzio from the pit

Shauncat: I will accept Hazm being killed by a kill a random player roll as long as you come up with a good story on how the Death Prophecy is fulfilled

Guy of Bonisagus: well, theres a demon from hell opening a gate

i think theres plenty of room for martyrdom there

johns (GM): That demon's name is Gulielmus

Shauncat: Sure

Guy of Bonisagus: gulielmus is dead

Mercuzio Caesar: Sorry about that, I had a late dinner tonight

Guy of Bonisagus: the gate is closed

good work everyone

Shauncat: Plenty of opportunity but specifics are best

devil's fav demon (GM): celeste is resurrecting at a different location and time so i can play a grog, if there are any grogs. we brought one right

Guy of Bonisagus: we have dusans russian friend who is at like -9 right now

Mercuzio Caesar: There's the polish grog who got injured

or bulgarian or whatever he was exactly

devil's fav demon (GM): sick

Guy of Bonisagus: serbian

johns (GM): -4 iirc

also i had a hard drive problem and lost some of my ars folder

Mercuzio Caesar: ah, a grog with True Faith and Greater Characteristic (INT) you say

moe (GM): back

devil's fav demon (GM): fuck

Guy of Bonisagus: as well as Puissant Siegecraft

devil's fav demon (GM): that blows

johns (GM): there's 2 village npcs you can use

i have dropped them on the board

Mercuzio Caesar: Get me up to speed a little on where we are right now, and also on why cumthinker has been absent 2 weeks in a row now

Guy of Bonisagus: right now we are in the village, it is raining, and a

50 foot wide hole in the ground is opening and belching fire and brimstone

devil's fav demon: cool

Mercuzio Caesar: "Good GOD where did that hole come from?"

johns (GM): after you left dys there was a party, the grog got seduced by the fat man's wife, then on friday night a bunch of demons took over the church to celebrate the death of christ. everyone ran up to confront them and celeste was brutally insanely murdered

Guy of Bonisagus: "Hell, by the appearance of things."

johns (GM): now its saturday and a big chasm has opened up in the ground.

moe (GM): these things all seemed like a good time, but little did we know we were opening up the portal to hell

Mercuzio Caesar: "Is this real? Not some illusion or trickery?"

Guy of Bonisagus: "Seems very real, given the circumstances."

I look towards the harbor to see if there's any ships.

johns (GM): Out of the hole emerges a winged sneering snake thing with needle like protrusions sticking out of its flesh.

Guy of Bonisagus: "Well, now I hope it isn't."

Father Hazm: I was thinking "what if the demons fuck up the church we spent all this time on" but I forgot demons are fucking stupid and engoy things rhyming in the George Lucas sense

Father Hazm: What if 13 was the botch number which meant decent totals were worse than bad ones?

Dušan of Criamon: t

johns (GM): who wants to control either of the NPCs

Mercuzio Caesar: Gulielmus, for your sin of AIDS, you are condemned

Zakhar Kirillovich: "My fingers started itching, I had to come."

Mercuzio Caesar: I'll control Isarn since I'm a non-combatant

Father Hazm: You are grounded grounded grounded

johns (GM): hazm you want to run Tiziano?

Father Hazm: Sure

Mercuzio Caesar: If we have a trained group at all Mercuzio can lead it incredibly well, but it doesn't seem like we do

johns (GM): You don't, unfortunately

Father Hazm: I can also buff a guy on Hazm's turn

johns (GM): roll Init for the npcs

Anyway

Are you all okay starting 40 feet away from the chasm

Guy of Bonisagus: thats fine by me

Sir Tiziano: Sounds about right

johns (GM): Ok Mercuzio, you have a chance to react first

Guy of Bonisagus: thank you for volunteering to be my shield grog mercuzio

Mercuzio Caesar: "Good luck, everyone! I am right behind you all in this endeavour!"

How far can I flee away from the pit in one round

Dušan of Criamon: lol

Father Hazm: I think I can get the most people buffed by doing Single Weapon first

Zakhar Kirillovich coughs up blood and lets it dribble down his beard

johns (GM): Mercuzio has left the batlefield

Zakhar Kirillovich: "Stand behind me, men."

Guy of Bonisagus: wow he speaks italian

Father Hazm: I'm a noncombatant but I can take a blow for Guy I guess

Zakhar Kirillovich: He does.

Very little.

johns (GM): hm

Guy of Bonisagus: hm

johns (GM): Only 3 valid targets in range

Father Hazm: Taking a hit for Guy while he throws pillums would fulfill Martyr I suppose

Guy of Bonisagus: dusan could be my shield grog instead

or mortis

johns (GM): One is Hazm, one is Dusan, and one is Endrite's AFK grog

Zakhar Kirillovich: Haltingly functional. You can hold a conversation

on everyday topics, although

it takes time, you make many mistakes,

and your accent is still bad.

Zakhar Kirillovich: "I go charge in and get em, boss! No problem!"

Isarn, Hunter: Gulielmus of Pure Treason is here to join up with the forces of hell

Sir Tiziano: Hazm could give Guy the Luck virtue

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: We really should have rescued him, but we thought, "What would Gulielmus of Pure Reason do?" and we spent so long thinking he was dragged into hell forever.

Sir Tiziano: It would be of questionable utility for him to lower his parma for it but I offer him the choice

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: We could try sealing the portal by filling it with dirt.

johns (GM): You could

Any action by Isarn?

Ok.

Guy of Bonisagus: i do not think luck will help much

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Uh oh.

Zakhar Kirillovich: What if we had a spell that opened pits, so someone could open a small pit beneath zahkar to save him from the large pit

johns (GM): They appear as fancy knights, dressed in flaming obsidian.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: What if that just dumped him also into hell?

Dušan of Criamon: I could trip him, that is ingenous

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Obsidian?

johns (GM): They march 20 ft towards you all and bellow, "Get in that pit, you wretches!"

Hazm, Dusan, and Guy, do any of you have Mentem MR less than 20?

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: A good argument, well stated.

Father Hazm: Yes for me

Guy of Bonisagus: they have but one weakness: if the exploding dice give them 2 10s, they critically botch and fall to pieces

johns (GM): If so, make an Intelligence roll vs. 9

Guy of Bonisagus: mentem mr of exactly 20 here

johns (GM): Your spell does not penetrate

Guy of Bonisagus: gah!

johns (GM): Yes Moe

Dušan of Criamon: entering the pit does not seem exclusive to slinging good DEO's around

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: You actually can't because you can't move and cast at the same time.

johns (GM): He can if he makes a Concentration roll.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: You're a cruel man.

Sir Tiziano: You can be humble and confident

It just means you're at the perfect Dunning Kruger breakpoint

Dušan of Criamon: Gah

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Hmm.

Sir Tiziano: Ok

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: We should probably kill the succubus.

Dušan of Criamon: at this distance I suppose putting him and his horse in a pit of my own would only connect to this big one

johns (GM): Yup

Dušan of Criamon: so I'll try it on the green one

Sir Tiziano: Maybe there's some hope that the horse freaks out

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Then wouldn't Sir Tiziano just jump off the horse and into the pit?

I mean, nobody cares if the horse goes to hell.

Dušan of Criamon: The dirt in a circle 6 paces across recedes

into the ground, leaving a pit 9 feet deep. If the

target area contains material other than dirt,

that material is not affected.

johns (GM): Can you roll Finesse on that for aiming?

Classic hole.

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: dusan is sponting his own effect though

Dušan of Criamon: 6 paces is insane

so 15' in diameter

Sir Tiziano: I mean you could make him roll finesse to not hit us but intention matters

Dušan of Criamon: I intended to hit only the badguy

Sir Tiziano: Yeah

johns (GM): .... 15' still hits everyone i mentioned

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: the hole doesnt have to be the full size!

johns (GM): I made him roll finesse he got a 9

Dušan of Criamon: so ideally the edge is between them and him

ah well

johns (GM): okay Isarn, Hazm, and Guy can roll Brawl Defense to dodge the pit

johns (GM): Hm

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: have we house ruled the number of fatigue levels

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: but i shouldn't have rolled damage

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: I'll try casting Superior Aura of Ennobled Presence on myself.

Dušan of Criamon: In the sense I should get to Guy and shlep him out

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Actually using my potent Searing Forge would probably kill Guy if he did, so I won't try that.

Sir Tiziano: "Sic semper whores," he says with his limited education in Latin.

Guy of Bonisagus: guy does not have metal on him

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: I'll instead attempt to GRAPPLE THE DEMON.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: I am.

which wouldnt make much sense honestly

johns (GM): The Proud Knight is finally forced to yield.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: I'll try and catch up to the demon.

Sir Tiziano: Alright, can I go to the restroom IRL now?

johns (GM): It falls to the ground, battered and shot up, dropping Guy to the side.

Yes!

You did it!

Sir Tiziano: brb

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Alright, next wave.

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: does it drop guy into the second, smaller pit

Isarn, Hunter: Guy then rolls into the pit

Guy of Bonisagus: it couldnt be helped

devil's fav demon: lol

Dušan of Criamon: My entire job here was to get Guy

Isarn, Hunter: "Fuck me. Demons and a fuckin' pit to hell, right in Ponza."

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: The troupe has decided.

Dušan of Criamon: this would be a good freeze frame ending credits roll

Dusan once more ineffectually running to a thing that fails to materialize

Father Hazm: I return the knight to NPC status

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: the camera panning out over everyone lying unconscious on the ground

johns (GM): ok ive tallied up how much infernal vis is left after the PeViing

devil's fav demon: lol

Mercuzio Caesar: "Amazing! I knew we could do it."

Guy of Bonisagus snores.

johns (GM): The villagers start to poke their heads out of their houses. "Is it over?"

Dušan of Criamon weeps

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: "Never fear, the magi of Vardian's Tomb have exorcised the demons in your midst."

johns (GM): There is much rejoicing.

Father Hazm: "As the scholars say, history doesn't repeat, but it often rhymes."

Mercuzio Caesar: "Everything is under control!" I re-assure the people

Dušan of Criamon: "I dread to do it, but there is still the matter of the pit, and one my associate in it."

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: "Yes, my control."

johns (GM): Ah, right.

Dušan of Criamon: I start inching towards the fiery hellhole

johns (GM): After the final demon is slain the pit seals up again with a belch of sulferous smoke.

Dušan of Criamon: Ah

Guy of Bonisagus: rest in hell, russian man

johns (GM): I quote from the source material:

Once a character enters the pit, his

soul is eternally lost and damned to Hell.

Sorry.

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: who was the russian man

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: "See how the forces of Hell quail before me!"

Father Hazm: "By his control he means the guiding hand of God," he further appends Mortis.

Dušan of Criamon: I'll have to commission a stonemason for a cross now

rats

johns (GM): If Shaun is cool with it, can I quickly exposition through the rest of today and the next?

Father Hazm: Yes that's fine

johns (GM): Great.

As many of you were seriously fatigued in the fight you must spend the day recuperating.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Ok here's my thinking, we should expand the port and build a fortress on the island.

Father Hazm: I had plenty of time for personal touches last week

johns (GM): The morning of Easter Sunday arrives, and with it, Dominion begins to flood into the world once more.

As Hazm prepares for his Easter sermon, a villager rings the bell.

Suddenly from within the congregation are 7 unholy shrieks.

devil's fav demon: oh jeez

johns (GM): 7 of the villagers take on monstrous appearances and immediately begin to run in all directions away from the church.

devil's fav demon: lol

johns (GM): They are: Dr. Matius, Isarn, Arnolf, Alba, Gasparo, Fransisca, and Bretmar.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Gah!

Mercuzio Caesar: Isarn is Wrath, Gasparo is Greed

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: You guys didn't save ANY of them???

Dušan of Criamon: Eh, live and let sin

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Sheesh!

johns (GM): In fiendish form, Gasparo's "belly and mouth grow to incredible proportions,

and he gains the strength to hop on his

one good leg as fast as a two-legged person can run."

etc.

Father Hazm: I take confessions, I don't pin people down and make them do it

devil's fav demon: lmao

johns (GM): After the intitial confusion, one of the villagers tugs at Hazm's sleeve and directs his attention to something else

Father Hazm: One must open the door through will if they want the light of Our Lord and Savior to enter their soul

Guy of Bonisagus: if they were demons whyd isarn help us fight

how strange

johns (GM): The ground under the church's alter has cracked, disgorging the golden reliquary case, which has split open, revealing a rotted animal corpse of black fur.

devil's fav demon: gross.

Guy of Bonisagus: yikes

nice church hazm

Dušan of Criamon: Isarn was a dipshit, but virtuous

johns (GM): You did it guys! 9 adventure XP for braving Mortal and Spiritual Peril!

he wans't virtuous. he was a dog kicker

Father Hazm: I didn't design the church

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: That seems a bit much for letting a fifth of the village turn into demons.

johns (GM): lol

Dušan of Criamon: nothing in the bible says you can't kick a dog

johns (GM): each of the 7 took a demonic deal to let them indulge their various vices for 100 years in exchange for their soul

Mercuzio Caesar: lol

See, not our fault! bitch

Dušan of Criamon: good deal imo

Father Hazm: It seems like they were already lost

Guy of Bonisagus: we did it. we uh, well the church is desecrated, a bunch of peolpe including the village doctor and leader turned into demons, and uh, well, 9 adventure xp

johns (GM): it was possible to save them but eh

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: . o O ( kicking dogs for 100 years is going to be so cool )

Mercuzio Caesar: lol

devil's fav demon: lol

Guy of Bonisagus: lol

johns (GM): lmfao cumthinekr

Dušan of Criamon: no Isarn was on our side, he chose to kick dogs mundanely i thought

one mundane lifetime

Father Hazm: Since the witches turned out to be a red herring we earned that XP by pursuing it to its logical end

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: he can sell his soul and also be afraid of Hell

Mercuzio Caesar: I wipe a tear at the loss of the widow, who was insanely guilty of Envy.

Father Hazm: We failed the villager saving objective but fully completed the witch bonus

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: let's enslave the witches.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Let's marry them.

Dušan of Criamon: let's recruit them

johns (GM): here are your stats https://badgame.net/index.php?topic=47117.msg13335916#msg13335916

Guy of Bonisagus: lets pilum them

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: let's vassalize them

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Which witch is the least married?

Mercuzio Caesar: I think expecting the PCs - any PCs - to dedicate the small length of time they have to lecturing npcs on their flaws, is pretty ridiculous.

johns (GM): the 14 year old

devil's fav demon: Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Let's marry them.

Father Hazm: Hazm will overlook the witches his whole "Thou shalt not harbor a witch" sermons provided you bring them into aegis of teh Order

johns (GM): saving a villager doesn't mechanically change anything as written

the demons who appear are based off what the PCs did

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: lol.

johns (GM): which is why no Gluttony and Greed demons appeared

Mercuzio Caesar: Unfortunate, but I have to marry a 14 year old. Nothing I could do.

Father Hazm: Nice

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Hmm.

Father Hazm: TO both

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Is she Gifted?

johns (GM): Yes actually

devil's fav demon: Ooh.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: HMM.

I'll make her my apprentice.

devil's fav demon: Time to give her to Rosario as an apprentice.

Gah!

johns (GM): She will refuse

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Well, fair enough.

johns (GM): She's already apprenticed to her mother

Dušan of Criamon: :pepe2:

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Have a nice life.

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: gah.

ok.

let's teach the parma to the gifted witches, and then force them to join or die

Father Hazm: Gul is Ex Misc, he could try recruiting them

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: You already can force them to join or die.

But I don't feel like it.

johns (GM): Anyway after this I could do a little mini adventure about Rienzo in Rome for the fall of '34, or we can call it a night early and jump to Spring '55. we can play with history a bit and say rienzo sticks around if you want him to come up in alter adventure

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: rienzo ftw

Guy of Bonisagus: im just going to leave this tract on the parma, which includes the key, on the ground, and if you pick it up and read it then its not my fault when you have to join or die

Father Hazm: Rienzo is cool

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: I do need a wife though...

devil's fav demon: i need to go for a bit but if this second part goes long i'll be back

Dušan of Criamon: ayyyy rienzo

Guy of Bonisagus: why would we do an adventure from 20 years ago johns?

Father Hazm: I like the idea of him defying history ab it

Guy of Bonisagus: what the hell?

johns (GM): Ohh hrrm Rosario was actually going to be a big hook. Time to improvise

devil's fav demon: gah

johns (GM): Sorry. I took up a deal with a Demon of Sloth and now I'm too sleep to type properly.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Well wait we still need to decide what to do here?

Dušan of Criamon: i think i'll call it a night here

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Don't we?

devil's fav demon: how long is it gonna take i can stay for like an hour maybe. i just need to drive somewhere and drop off some keys and itll take like 25 minutes

Mercuzio Caesar: It's a damn shame I missed out on the Pride count from collapsing irl

Dušan of Criamon: shooting competition powered me out

Father Hazm: We could resolve it later

Guy of Bonisagus: well need to get another church

Mercuzio Caesar: as thats my actual flaw

Guy of Bonisagus: since this ones descrated

Dušan of Criamon: as always a pleasure johns, everyone else too

Father Hazm: The covenant doesn't need to vote on the wtiches

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: I definitely think we need to expand the port.

johns (GM): Alright Moe, thanks for showing up

moe (GM): later my dudes

Father Hazm: Gul can recruit them to Ex Misc or Rosario can join or die them

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Give these yokels a taste of some real discipline.

johns (GM): Shaun can Hazm make the church proper without a real relic?

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: recruiting them would be cool.

Father Hazm: Leave your proposals like fortifying the villa or expanding the port with Hazm and he can distribute tithes as appropriate

He's a fully trained Chamberlain he can manage funds fine

moe (GM): one more thing i remembered

i comprehended twilight this game

johns (GM): Oh right!

moe (GM): i have an idea for the twilight scar, everything else i don't mind leaving up to GM

johns (GM): I forgot what your rolls were though and lost my notes

moe (GM): i'm thinking of going ignem

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: when i rolled my experiment dice earlier i got a special or story event

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Please write and run it right now.

johns (GM): What were you experimenting on?

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: the ignem-boosting metamagic spell

devil's fav demon: oh

johns (GM): Okay, your spell results in Celeste returning as an Ignem Elemental

devil's fav demon: the story event is that celeste crawls out of the fireplace

johns (GM): or Burned (Wo)man

devil's fav demon: glad we're on the same page

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: pure reason has done it again

johns (GM) dusts hands.

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: this would be 2 seasons before her death though.

moe (GM): i had a 14 on the comprehension roll

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Let's kill this demon.

devil's fav demon: oh lmao

gulielmus of pure breaking the hermetic limit of time.

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: i guess it attracts the attention of whatever spirit brought celeste back

Guy of Bonisagus: we cant kill it

its immune to fire

moe (GM): rolling 1d10!+2 Comprehend Ease Factor

)+2

= 10

so difference 4?

johns (GM): Okay, do you recall how many warping points you took? I think it was 2?

moe (GM): I think so

johns (GM): Alright, I'm going to roll for the Strength of the Mark

moe (GM): i have 15 now

johns (GM):

7

So you gained 2 Warping from the botch die, and 7 warping from Twilight

moe (GM): yeah 2

johns (GM): I think Puissant Ignem would make sense as a warping gain?

moe (GM): I'm down with that

johns (GM): Nice

And did you have an idea for a warping scar?

Guy of Bonisagus: [crying angry feels guy]

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Pretty good comprehension.

moe (GM): I was thinking about his eyes glowing a slightly brighter dim now

this is sure to go over well with rubes

johns (GM): It works for me

Okay as for the rest of today, we've spent 1 irl month in this year and I'd feel bad if we end up going another week or two on another adventure. So can we table Rienzo for Fall of next year and say 1354 is finished?

Mercuzio Caesar: Sure.

devil's fav demon: cool

johns (GM): DFD has said he'd run a Venizia adventure in Spring '55 which I am looking forward to personally

devil's fav demon: i think im going to cancel pf if i dont manage to prep 2 adventures in a week. rip.

johns (GM): Aw well :(

devil's fav demon: we'll see

Guy of Bonisagus: cola di rienzi, please come back. the revolution MUST continue

johns (GM): will it be on next week if you have to cancel?

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Just steal published adventures.

devil's fav demon: this friday might be cancelled so i can run ars this sunday.

next sunday.

johns (GM): Hazm you don't want to include the troupe into this hook at present?

Father Hazm: Oh okay

johns (GM): Not forcing the issue, its genuinely your call

Father Hazm: I'll gather everyone before they leave for VT

devil's fav demon: but yes it would be continuing the week af ter

johns (GM): Cool beans

Father Hazm: "There was more at hand than just demons possessing the villagers, someone sent me a profane item disguised a a reliquary."

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: "Perhaps you should only install reliquaries with windows in your altar."

Father Hazm: "I will take this proposal under advisement."

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: "Say, that's a good idea."

Mercuzio Caesar: "So this was a deliberate act of infernalism?"

Father Hazm: "It was a bishop that sent it, however. I didn't think to distrust him."

I'll give everyone the name of the bishop, since its not the one VT usually interacts with.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Gasp!

That guy!

Father Hazm: johns please remind me of his name

johns (GM): Theophilus

Father Hazm: "Bishop Theophilus."

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: "Where is he the bishop of?"

johns (GM): he's up in the char journal now

Diocese of Terracina, Priverno e Sezze

Father Hazm: I'll use my Church Lore to give everyone those details ICly if possible

Guy of Bonisagus: lets kill him

Aeventyr of Tytalus: okay

moe (GM): falling asleep for real now

later

johns (GM): peace

Guy of Bonisagus: hello aeventyr of tytalus

devil's fav demon: peace moe

Father Hazm: Later

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Farewell.

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: let's hire a mercenary army and go on a crusade against terracina, priverno and sezze

johns (GM): Kizunai lets

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: I've been saying we needed a mercenary army for years.

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: we live in a catacomb!

Guy of Bonisagus: lets expand

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: you can find a mercenary army at any time

Guy of Bonisagus: lets take over one of the cathedrals

Father Hazm: "Now that Ponza is an official parish, I cannot travel from it very often, so I must implore you, keep tabs on this bishop, it may be in your own best interests."

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: "Certainly Father, I vow to succeed in uncovering his base treachery."

Father Hazm: "Bless you."

I will take Mortis at his word.

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: Good, I'm not a liar.

Father Hazm: I'll also ask in my correspondences that Sir Tiziano be given a writ of indulgence in recognition of his deeds.

To be bartered, passed down, or trade in for atonement as he sees fit.

Mercuzio Caesar: We had a possible merc army before with those thieves in the consolata adventure

where zita managed to diplomacy them into helping instead of a long fight scene

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: I think we should work towards having a full time army.

devil's fav demon: we should

good game bye

Father Hazm: GG

Mortis ex Verditus, the Giant Slayer: See ya.

Gulielmus of Pure Reason: gg

How many days did the Ponza adventure take?

Shauncat: 7

Endrite: Cool.

Shauncat: Maybe 8 for travel time but it did take place over Holy Week

devil's fav demon (GM): lmao @ lavinias insane parma

Endrite: She knows exactly what she's doing.

Sure would be a shame if someone ordered an assassin to murder her.

devil's fav demon (GM): it would be awful. just the worst.

moe (GM): jesus christ

Shauncat: TFW your sleep is disturbed by an assassin getting smoked by a lightning trap

Endrite: If the spell penetrates the ghost’s

Magic Resistance, roll Communication +

Leadership to see how effective your threats are.

You know this is a good guideline because it doesn't describe any target number at all.

devil's fav demon (GM): The storyguide should always give a bonus or

penalty that depends on the potency of the

threat, and any roll other than a botch will compel

at least minimal obedience.

its basically for flavor and the spell always works unless you botch it or the gm wants to fuck with you.

Endrite: But the number you get obviously has some meaning or it wouldn't even list a characteristic and ability.

Get your head in the game, Ars writers!

Shauncat: I'd go with the ghost's Presence + Might mag, maybe

Considering a ghost has little use for Presence it seems like it'd be a fair EF in most cases

moe (GM): the number obviously has meaning

cracking open my numerology book

johns (GM): conf tokens allocated

lavinia's mr is not any more impressive than a younger hermetic wizard because she doesn't get form bonuses

Shauncat: It's nice being able to sell off the weird defenses you get as a hedge mage with a flaw

johns: my hedge defense is worthless

it only applies to concentration based magic

and the bonus is incredibly marginal in RAW since its based off Arts as Difficult Abilities
