Re: Visions of Darkness - Elsa
Elsa felt the pressure starting to build in her eardrums - a low buzz, like a thousand bees gathering at her temples. Her sire’s words echoed back at her, from the night of her embrace. Words of warning that she could neither make heads nor tails of at the time. Now, she could not shake them so easily. Crawling shadows flickered at the corners of her vision, like specters waiting in the dark.
“You may pay at the end,” she murmured finally. Sitting cross-legged on one of the pillows, Elsa tried to look calm as she reached for the woman’s hand, examining the unique criss-cross of lines covering her palm.
“The left hand is special…” She tilted her head slightly, watching how the moonlight played across the woman’s skin. “It is a reflection of who you were at birth - your core essence and potential.”
“I see…” Elsa frowned slightly. “A woman who cares about the well-being of others. A woman of great action and great personal sacrifice…. When I see lines such as these, they often represent people who would do well in service to others. Policemen, firemen… soldiers. Those who guard and protect, who are very skilled in what they do because lives often depend on their choices.”
She watched the woman for any signs of reaction, and pushed her senses open, searching for the beautiful swirls and eddies of color that existed just beyond human sight…. at the bleeding edge of our reality.
[Private to GM: Rolling an Auspex 2 check to look at her aura: Elsa Lamarre rolled 2 successes using 6d10 with a target of 6 ((2,8,3,8,1,6)) EDIT: Checked the book. Difficulty is actually 8, so I would only have 1 success from that roll.]
