If it's not clear, the caravan has made it to the Oasis and all except Ida are present there.

Should I presume Tova can enter the tent, or is the Sarjent keeping it private?  If so, Tova will make conversation with Roland, too.  Or wait for Cassilda.

Party at Dante's tent!

I'm gonna say that since we PCs are special you can enter the tent should you find yourselves there.

Tova's tent is the Party Tent, I presume.

@Roland Rock: What do you think? Are Renzo and Roland, as aspirants for advancement, allies or rivals or some of each as circumstances dictate?

I think allies would probably make more sense. Roland would see Renzo as someone with way more potential than himself to climb the social ladder, so he'd want to build a good relationship with him while there is some rapport due to their similar conditions. Roland couldn't occupy the same position as Renzo in the family anyway, so climbing together seems best than stepping on each other.

Sorry for being slow. Need to sort out if it's worth trying to find the secret observer and how.

Remember, an Investigative spend doesn't mean you can't find clues with that ability. A spend reduces your pool, not your score.

Sorry this week got away from me- I need to set a number of dots of Investigative abilities to spend right? And specify which one?

The character creation tool at http://monstar.co.nz/matt/sotsgen/ is truly wonderful, that should get you sorted in no time.

The week got away from me as well, what with the bad winter weather. I work with the homeless and disadvantaged in New York City, and was in crisis mode trying to get clients into shelter. No one dies on my watch.

Also, I did not want to run roughshod over our august Gamemaster's worldbuilding and mystery structure. I know far too much mythology and tend to ad-lib a ton of stuff when I should be waiting for clues, and I very nearly had Cassilda deliver a long monologue about what is essentially ancient Mesopotamian cosmology before reining myself in. What a delightfully amazing investigative ability, Forgotten Lore!

I'm fine with player collab on the setting, even better if you spend a point to do so :)

So if I am right to get more info need to spend some investigative ability points.

Does spending 1 point in Spirit Sight for Ida-Tyr to get more information on the observing spirits/creatures/natural anomaly make sense?

What sort of narration do you want for that GM?

Laughed so hard at Renzo’s reaction to Cassilda’s touch. Exactly the response I was looking for. There are times when I wish I had chosen more twisted Sphere combinations. Imagine if she had Flesh, Decay, and Worship instead of Demonology, Ghosts/Spirits, and Necromancy.

Correct!

Any narration as you see fit. The rules say that Spirit Sight allows one to peer into the edges of the spirit world, discover areas of corruption, and discover hauntings. It's possible to look too closely and take morale damage as well.

If you truly wanted to show off your sorcerous chops, you could also spend corruption, although that's even more dangerous.

Your call!

My vision of Adath's potential unravelling? A combination of the baddies' fates from Raiders Of The Lost Ark, The Last Crusade, and The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull. Always trust the Indiana Jones franchise for wholesome gruesome. ^_^

Oh my!

I haven't seen Crystal Skull, but I imagine it involves head melting of some kind?
