Re: Bad Night on the Goodnight - Unwelcome Guests
At least it's not a crit fail.
09:29, Today: Sister Deidre rolled 1,1 using d4-2,d6-2, rerolling max with rolls of 3,3. Notice!
All right, being Blessed, the "nun" is going to try to resolve this without violence. In her own, uh, unique way.
Oh, they had picked the wrong day for this. The Sister, who was contrary and bizarre at the best of times, was in a mood and had come out in the grease paint. This wasn't one of her pretty skulls either, this was shock white, with deep black streaks in the eyes, and around the contours of the jaw, creating a skull but a very crude and sinister one.
She wasted no time approaching these heathens, raising both hands to the sky, and belting out her words with great... enthusiasm.
"This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God!
"Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
"Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was."
All right we've had time to recover Power Points, so The Sister is going to judiciously spend a couple here. That harangue was The Sister using the Lower power on Phelps to lower his Spirit trait.
10:05, Today: Sister Deidre rolled 6,3 using d8,d6, rerolling max with rolls of 6,3. True Believer!
10:05, Today: Sister Deidre rolled 7,5 using d8,d6, rerolling max with rolls of 7,5. Faith!
So 7. Again, True Believer is an amazing Edge. Missed the Raise, but that should lower Phelp's Spirit a step.
The Scripture recited, now came the sermon.
"Repent! Repent! The wages of sin are hellfire and damnation! Death comes for all, none are spared! He who spends this life in the commission of evil will burn, burn, in the fury of He Who Is Called I Am! Death awaits you, on a pale horse, and Hell follows with him! It cannot be reasoned with! It cannot be bargained with! It doesn't feel pity of remorse or fear and it Absolutely Will Not Stop. Ever. Until you are dead. And hell awaits you my brother!"
Deidre was animated and crazy and of dubious mental sanity. Granted, the others were probably getting used to that, but it was new to Phelps.
lol well just spent the bennie we just got, but that first roll was terrible, that's at least good enough to Support if someone else has a better Intimidation score.
10:08, Today: Sister Deidre rolled 4,4 using d6,d6, rerolling max with rolls of 4,4. Wow that was terrible.
10:07, Today: Sister Deidre rolled 1,2 using d6,d6, rerolling max with rolls of 1,2. Intimidation.
