Re: The Canteen (OOC)

Selene would be happy to verify with the memory she plucked from Kev's mind outside. She's not particularly interested in hunting down an old woman in a retirement home, though she's unlikely to do anything but go with the flow.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

Go for it.

We can decide what to do afterwards, especially if something is fishy.

Apologies for the silence, one of those TGIF weeks. I'll have a post out starting the next scene in the next 12 hours.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

I will be leaving town later this week, and likely not available to post very much. So the timing here works out well.

You guys want to jump in here, or shall I keep going?

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

I figured I'd step in, because Clasm. Mana's down on the IC post because I'd initially thought to do Mage Sight with Prime up, but decided against it by the time I finished writing.

@Selene, safe travels! Keep me posted on when you'll be back? Is this a long trip? Hopefully exciting!

@Clasm, noted :)

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

Should I say Bast came in as well? Or would that be too many people. She could check everything out with Prime sight, though.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

@Bast I wrote everyone but Selene in, it's up to you :)

@Nexus As a heads up, Belinda is blind and didn't know that you put your hand out so she didn't shake it.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

...Does anyone other than Selene have access to Mind magic? Or Life?

I might be able to treat her with a homebrew Boon-granted Condition, assuming the ST's feeling permissive, but making that a permanent solution would require one more Reach than is Paradox safe (unless we can get three hours with her without Sleepers showing up,) a point of Mana, and a permanent point of Willpower. As you might imagine, I'm open to alternatives.

Life 1.

I'll see if I can diagnose, but I won't be able to treat.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

Given that Oz seemed to be against using magic on or even around Belinda, I (or at least Bast) would be hesitant to try and work any on her... If Oz is that worried about any spells "hanging" on or around her attracting unwanted attention, it's probably for good reason.

Wait, so she doesn't have Alzheimer's? Or is it not considered a Personal Tilt?

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

Mechanically she has the equivalent of, it's just caused by her gift. The point is that you can't fix it, just give her something to get her blood sugar back up and decide if you want to try for another fortune telling or not.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be dodgy about it, I totally missed that you were thinking of trying to fix it.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

Oof.  Miss-read just how aware of her gift she was.  Thought it was more of a subconscious thing.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

My apologies in advance, but Clasm is going to give you an earful for that. Fate magic is a specialty of hers.

Also, Speaker: Can Clasm make a boon-boosted memory roll to get the prophecy written down during the trip back to Oz's place?

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

It might be easier to just cast postcognition on yourself to look back along your own timeline and review it before you need to write it down.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

Ah, but Exceptional Luck is Clasm's Praxis. Praxes? The spell that gets an exceptional success on only three successes, and thereby provides an opportunity to net Mana. Additionally, it can grant Conditions that can be resolved for Arcane Beats if the casting was an exceptional success. An Arcane Beat and a bit of Mana is a potent incentive to shift from "certain" to "failure is highly improbable."

Ah, I suppose the allure of double-dipping for extra xp without cost is too strong.

Sorry for being so quiet, working this weekend and not getting Victoria Day off sucks.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

Casting roll:

Exceptional Luck, Reaching for Instant Casting and Advanced Duration
Gnosis 1 + Fate 3 + Mudra Yantra 3

15:36, Today: Clasm rolled 2 successes using 7d10 with the World of Darkness nWoD system with a target of 8, rerolling 10s with rolls of 3,4,10(+4),8,7,3,3.  Gnosis + Fate + Mudra.

Alas, I fell short of an Exceptional Success, and am thus denied the goodies that had tempted me. Still, the memory roll can be made with +2 dice and the Informed Condition.

15:38, Today: Clasm rolled 4 successes using 7d10 with the World of Darkness nWoD system with a target of 8, rerolling 10s with rolls of 8,4,1,8,8,9,2.  Int + Composure + Boon.

Resolving the Informed Condition makes that an exceptional success to write the prophecy down from memory.

Re: The Canteen (OOC)

Unless we're past the one-minute mark, Clasm still has Mage Sight active, with Prime. Anything remarkable in the hospital on the way out? The nurse in particular is of interest to Clasm, since she's the one with the most access to Belinda.
