Session Start: Sat Feb 08 20:52:00 2003 [20:52] So what level artifact would it be in your game to have an artifact [20:52] at least 4 [20:52] such on a heartstone and be able to cast Incompairable Body Arsonel once or twice a day? [20:52] huh? [20:52] The big Battlemech is just to throw people off ;-) [20:53] heh [20:53] What lv artifact would it take, to have IBA on yourself, without spending essence or willpwer [20:54] i think that's hearthstone level 5 [20:54] artifact tho? [20:54] * Storyteller dunno [20:54] Yeah Artifact :-) [20:55] HS's don't seem able to get up to Celestial Level Power, IMHO.... although there are a couple of [20:55] Lv5's that make me wonder, Like the Healing Agg Damage and the Perfect mobility ones [20:59] probably 3 1/2 [20:59] Ok. I was thinking lv3 but it would take a HS in it without benefits, or would cost [21:00] Double the essence commitement, like 6 and could only be cast a certain number of times [21:00] a day [21:02] * Storyteller shrugs. [21:02] check the exalted main book for creation. doesn't really have anythig to do with that [21:07] OK. [21:13] * Storyteller shrugs. my math disagrees apparently. [21:14] hrmmmm [22:49] from your ship, you think you see something off in the distance. At first, you think it is nothing, but your finely tuned senses cannot be wrong. Grabbing a ladder, you have the ship come to a stop, and crawl over the side. Carefully, you hang from the side of the ship as you look past the wake - there, clearly are three paris of fresh footprints, in the dusting of ash leading towards the main encampmant. [22:49] And no, you don't see anyone, and haven't. [22:50] /me gets 4 of his minions and casts Mirror of Bending Light on himself and them [22:50] Then follows the footprints after giving orders for 1 minion to report to Maris [22:50] or someone else in charge. [22:50] roll your roll for that spell [22:50] THe other two are to continue with the boat. [22:50] !exa 15 [22:50] Tabius (15), 6, 7, 3, 10, 10, 8, 2, 3, 9, 6, 6, 3, 2, 7, 3, Successes : 8 [22:51] !exa 1 [22:51] Tabius (1), 5, Successes : 0 [22:51] Ok, sorry forgot 1 dice. [22:52] allright, you make your way after the footprints. They seem to have stopped in several places and taken a twisting route towards the main camp [22:52] roll int + lore [22:53] !exa 8 [22:53] Tabius (8), 8, 1, 8, 10, 6, 6, 4, 2, Successes : 4 [22:54] you note that their path is actually letting them get CLOSER to the guards, not farther away. [22:55] So they are trying to advance in closer to the camp without being seen. [22:55] /me Tabius makes a careful look at the field and for a possible objective. [22:55] and doing it in rather tricky ways. at some points their trail is whiped away completely by the landships, or just wind. [22:55] roll per + survival for tracking [22:56] !exa 10 [22:56] Tabius (10), 7, 8, 10, 3, 2, 9, 6, 3, 1, 7, Successes : 6 [22:56] (*Glad I bought that 1 dot now ant I ;-) [22:56] heh [22:56] you make your way through the gauntlet, loosing the trail several times before picking it back up again. [22:57] There aren't raelly any tactical objectives left. they passed them all by. they sliped right by the senteries, right through into the camp [22:57] Crafty little bastards. [22:57] Their objective is to spy on the plans the solars and DB's are making for advancing [22:57] is Tabius's suspician or assassination. [22:58] * Storyteller nods, seems like a good guess. [23:01] And when does the pantamiming Minion in spiffy armor with a spiffy spear get [23:01] to camp and give its worning? [23:02] heh [23:03] They don't have mouths or eyes you know ;-) [23:03] probably already has. [23:03] * Storyteller knows [23:03] tell maris, right? [23:03] Yep [23:03] Him first, and then Vanal and them. [23:05] Come on now, its in armor, with a helm and a spiffy spear ;-) [23:05] They all know is Tabs ;-) [23:06] Its got a 4 Appearance as well ;-) [23:07] damn you using me for dramatic effect ;-P [23:07] :P [23:07] * Storyteller thinks it's just not her type. [23:07] any clothes? [23:08] Other than the armor, helm, spear, and 3 javalins, nothing. [23:08] * Storyteller nods [23:09] any point to meet with them? [23:09] Tabs meet with the group, no point. [23:25] * Thanos [~web-Guest@ip68-108-129-116.lv.lv.cox.net] is on IRC [23:26] eventually you meet up with maris. He seems grim, and seeing to another one of his wives who he has just found out is pregnant, and is trying to get her to leave the field "war being no place for a pregnant woman" [23:26] for some reason his obvious charm isn't working. [23:26] After an hour of tracking I presume, when the spell ends? [23:29] * Storyteller supposes slightly before [23:34] Maris notes your presence and seems to give in for the moment, coming over to see what you want [23:35] "Maris, I have been following tracks into the encampment for some time now. [23:35] There are forces of the enemy very likely invisible in the camp [23:35] We must find them and get them delt with as soon as possible. [23:35] He nods. [23:36] "I got your message, and sent messengers. Any luck findout out more?" [23:36] They scirted every normal objective for scouts, so its assassination, espianoge or sabatage that they are up to [23:37] "We need to get a solar to get some Admant Countermagic once we narrow the space down. [23:37] he nods, seeming to resign himself to it. [23:37] "Have you found the others?" [23:37] That way they can ixnay the spells and such. [23:37] No I have no, was on my way, one of my servants was suppost to inform them after you. [23:41] Heads off to find the others. [23:41] after casting his nightly ISoB [23:42] Maris comes with, saying that he had sent messages and knows roughly where they are [23:42] "Excellent." [23:42] motions for his minions to follow. [23:45] (*BTW, just so you know, if the guy is using the standard Mirror of Bending light [23:45] If somebody in it gets wounded it ends for them. [23:45] If its the caster that gets wounded, it ends for everybody. [23:46] not using that spell. [23:50] ;-) didn't think so, heh [23:50] but had to shoot my mouth off anyways' [23:56] I just hope that Tabs gets there soon enough to cast Healing Flames on Cic [23:59] heh [23:59] yea you will. [00:00] ;-) [00:00] screw Sanyet ;-) [00:01] ohhhh she's going to kieeeel yooou [00:02] heh..... depends if while I kneel down to heal here if the heal of my boot is on his throught ;-) [00:02] heh [00:04] damn I can't spell worth shiaaaaat ;-) [00:26] ok make a dex + athletics check, diff 2 [00:26] !exa 10 [00:26] Tabius (10), 3, 8, 10, 6, 9, 3, 4, 7, 1, 1, Successes : 5 [00:26] OK [00:26] Could I target 2 people with one casting of Healing Flames? [00:27] nope; two successive castings. [00:27] OK. [00:27] Damn, Cic can heal herself, thats SWEAT! [00:27] ah, turn to bashing heh. [00:30] hrmmmm dex + Athl ??? [00:31] was that it? success.

[00:41] A bit criptic, could I get a little more out of that? [00:42] cicada is the source [00:42] it's her charm, you know [00:42] interesting, are his wounds now bashing as well? [00:43] would not killing him 'accidentaly' be compassion or temperence/ [00:53] hm [00:53] compassion [00:53] [for cicada] [00:53] eh, more pressing concerns are afoot, like a gimpy solar to kill ;.-) [00:54] did you cast it on him? [00:54] heh [00:54] No, if he is going to survive then Tabius doesn't care if he is hurt.

[02:06] Me? [02:06] * Storyteller doesn't think the terrestrial ones are going to cut it. [02:06] Which fly spells? [02:06] the cloud one, or whatever one you want, really. [02:06] you mentioned the one with wings, 's ok. [02:06] There is the cloud which is slow........ but still a good platform for fire [02:06] Heh..... I will work towards it ;-) [02:07] want barge carrying one 's ok too [02:07] Just depends on where I can learn it. [02:07] * Storyteller nods [02:07] you have a few spells in your book thing [02:08] Ok...... will review......
