Session Start: Wed Nov 27 23:57:58 2002 [23:57] Would it not be Essence + occult? I have no idea? [23:58] * Storyteller shrugs [23:58] this is in addiition that roll [23:58] AH! [23:58] you're trying to get her to see beyond the normal frame of reference, aren't you? [23:58] Yes :-) [23:59] More how to shape essence on a much bigger scale than she is used to. [23:59] Realizing its the same way she uses charms just bigger, more complex [23:59] but the raw forces are the same. [23:59] * Storyteller nods [00:00] doing good, glad I don't have to oversee this [00:02] :-) [00:03] had some definite ideas and theories of my own about essence and magic ;-) [00:04] they're good [00:04] EVeryone has their own theory on magic, hell, I know I do; I used it every day ;) [00:04] hehehe [00:25] she is looking at a dragon line.....

[00:57] yes, but i'm not saying [00:57] maybe you should drop by friday and find out? [00:58] DOH! [00:58] Erm...... should I read email? [00:58] 'else stay really late today [00:58] I might be on a date Friday [00:58] it's not in email tabs [00:58] ok [00:58] maybe we can do it satuday [00:58] or maybe next week [00:58] Saterday might work better :-) if its during the day [00:59] maybe. [00:59] Maybe a few hours before game, but not much. [00:59] Well either way, I will make it Friday or Saterday, don't know if the girl will be free or not [00:59] You see I have a curfew, and I can't be on the net during the day. [00:59] AH! [00:59] heh enjoy the girl if you can man. ahhh, the sweet nectar of love. [01:00] hehehe [01:00] it's a weird, anti-curfew to be sure [01:00] It would be the first date and I haven't even asked her out yet ;-) [01:00] heh [01:00] good luck man [01:00] Thanks..... [01:04] she is shedding off that much cold? [01:04] Damn [01:04] not her. It is the middle of winter you know. [01:04] acht......that why we have shelter ;-)( [01:04] or well be better ;-) [01:04] heh [01:04] Hrmmm heheH we might have to find 'SOME WAY' to keep warm ;-) [01:05] lol [01:05] not with 0 survival... [01:05] That could have changed ;-) Its not like I don't have the exp ;-) [01:05] I have been waxing back and forth between learning demon summoning and not [01:06] roll survival + intelligence [01:06] Can I buy the dot? [01:06] one dot [01:06] you didn't really have much need for it... [01:07] Not till now [01:07] nope [01:07] aah [01:07] I know why you can't buy it now [01:07] All your downtime is going towards essence [01:07] Yeah, but there was plenty of down time before that ;-) [01:08] * Storyteller figures that the best way to learn is to teach; fine with essence, but survival? [01:08] No, not really... [01:08] heh opk then [01:08] you really want to spend three weeks on survival? [01:09] Yeah, back in Mackard Guard....... when I had the time. [01:10] Walking around in the forest..... [01:10] making perception checks....ect [01:10] Just not utilized or thought about till now. [01:10] hn [01:10] very well. [01:10] Thanks for the latitude.

[00:52] Well I was wondering when you would want to talk to me or if that could be done [00:52] after your room was clean? [00:52] It might be that Saterday night I will be away..... [00:52] Doubtful. I would have to take a nap. [00:53] AH...... [00:53] Since it becomes apparent to me that I will not be able to game on the 7th, I am adding another week in which to get done with the downtime [00:53] AH! Good and bad news I guess then. [00:53] yes [00:54] Give me a time that you would like to get together and do well whatever it [00:54] is that you want to do with Tabs and I will do my best to be there. [00:54] sometime next week? [00:55] Ok, a little more specific than that :-) [00:55] * GoldenH rubs his chin thoughtfully [00:55] I'm not really in any position to plan. Not sunday, I know that. [00:56] Sunday is out for me as well...... as is Monday evening. Tuesday evening would be the first day I think I could really commit to. [00:57] tuesday evening might work well. [00:58] Ok then I will endever to be online at 7-8 PST [00:58] 8-9 central? [00:59] erm.... 9-10 central.... [00:59] ok [00:59] 2 hour difference. [00:59] * GoldenH laughs [00:59] :-) [00:59] I know, but time is not well ordered in my world [01:00] Heh.... working for a international company I have gotten a lot more used to [01:00] time differentials in the states and Europe. [01:00] oh I don't mean that. I just mean that my perception and interaction with time itself is a bit off ;) [01:00] Ah.... LoL, don't have Time 1 then ;-) [01:01] Talk to you later then, I am off to find a good spot on my pillow. [01:02] * GoldenH laughs [01:02] more like Arcane 5 [01:02] goodnight Session Close: Fri Nov 29 01:34:22 2002 Session Start: Fri Nov 29 23:29:38 2002 [23:29] I will be here tomorrow night or earlier depending on some things. [23:29] The 7th however is a bad time and I would normaly not be able to make it [23:30] Its the Companies Annual Christmas party at the Paris Hotel and Casino :-) [23:35] oo ok Session Close: Sat Nov 30 00:48:49 2002 Session Start: Sat Nov 30 21:07:47 2002 [21:07] Cicada wants your outfit too [21:08] No problem it wont even be noticed till later. [21:08] ok [21:09] What happened to the old cloths? [21:09] destroyed [21:09] well [21:09] Not a problem, Tabs will just enchant another pair for himself and Cicada [21:09] just consider them put into "out of sight" and you go them back [21:09] ok [21:10] Not a big deal at all, Tabs is after all your magic handy man :-) [21:12] heh [21:22] Is there some reason why you keep telling me to save Tabs exp? Cause I might [21:22] just have something to do with it :-) [21:23] heh [21:23] * Storyteller shrugs [21:23] It's just that you might want to spend it on other cool things [21:24] Cooler than more Conviction or cooler things like some hidden stash of Celestial spells [21:24] wrapped in the cloak of Brigit? [21:24] more like the second :) [21:24] OH!!!! [21:24] yea [21:25] I mean if you'd rather have higher conviction i'm cool with that [21:26] erg...... well I think having 39 extra points is cool and all, I think 9 can go towards convicition [21:26] to get it up to a 4 so I have a better than average ability to regain WP [21:26] in the morning.... [21:28] arg..... and Storm Wind rider would make going along those firebird tracks so fast [21:28] and most would not bother somebody in a small tornado. [21:29] heh yea [21:31] Ok, consider Conviction purchased, and tell me whenever SWR can be purchased. [21:31] Conviction is 0 time btw [21:31] ok [22:37] Does Tabs know of any REALLY bad Taboo's that the tribes people have? [22:37] yea I suppose he would. [22:37] :-) [22:37] you wanna make one up? [22:37] Punishable by death or excilement? [22:37] sure [22:38] Heh....... [22:38] * Storyteller supposes you can craft one into your plan easier than me just throwing you one and crafting a plan around it [22:38] * Akane [Minotaur@ACBE865F.ipt.aol.com] has left IRC [22:39] Making a sacrifice to the sea demon? [22:39] Erm...... need ideas. [22:39] swimming after dark is a good one [22:40] Ah..... interesting. [22:40] refusing a fireshark's summons [22:40] OH!!!! [22:40] That is interesting..... [22:40] refusing to sleep with an Exalt [22:41] AH, I like that one ;-) [22:41] But who wouldn't sleep with Cicada :-) [22:41] [22:42] Hehehe, got it TALA [22:42] Hehehehe, we can get Tala to make it a public statement..... [22:42] HOLY SHIT, I have the perfect thing, if that is a real 'law; [22:43] yea [22:43] but you know it'd have to produce children [22:43] no homothingies [22:43] Not a problem.... Cicada would be a fall girl, but shit........ [22:43] That or I would be :-) [22:43] ^_- [22:44] hrmmmm Session Close: Sat Nov 30 23:35:48 2002 Session Start: Sun Dec 01 00:20:43 2002 [00:20] Does Tabs know the proper burrial rights ect to keep an agry spirit from popping up? [00:20] roll int + occult [00:21] !ex 11 [00:21] Tabius : !ex 11, 10, 3, 1, 2, 9, 4, 7, 1, 6, 2, 8, Successes : 5 [00:21] yes [00:25] Oh the shit that we get ourselves into :-) [00:25] yes [00:25] you guys make my life so easy [00:26] Oh go piss in the wind ;-) [00:26] done that [00:26] really not as bad as they say [00:26] Depends on how much wind ;-) [00:26] ;) [00:28] Well as a player killing the guy off is a good idea on basic principle. [00:28] As Tabs, he didn't like it. [00:29] , but he hoped the decision would be taken out of his hands. [00:29] * Storyteller nods sagely [00:33] Erm.... can letting a body get burned by Firesharks be included in the ritual? [00:34] probably. Unless the firelines have some other effect on the souls of the departed... [00:34] Hrmmmm, that might suck. [00:34] Would rather he became a perminant power leech for one of the Sharks [00:35] too late for that now [00:35] Yeah, almost had the rest listening to me to let us go figure out the island and come [00:35] back and then decide..... almost [00:36] * Storyteller nods sagely Session Close: Sun Dec 01 01:03:35 2002 Session Start: Fri Dec 13 22:40:17 2002 Session Ident: Thanos [22:40] you got it figured out? [22:40] I haven't thought about it since last we talked...... way stressed....way lots work at work [22:41] did I mention that I am broke :-P [22:41] * GoldenH shrugs [22:41] we's all broke, not like I notice people being broke anymore [22:41] spent a little to much on Christmas gifts and its got me worried. [22:41] heh [22:42] erm....... lets see I needed to get through some shielding....... [22:43] basically you've found the manse of a hibernating dragon king [22:43] the cloth is that artifact that preserves whatever is under it [22:44] I figured about the cloth, just not how to get through the barrioers. [22:44] he'll take them down once he wakes up. [22:44] only listen to him [22:44] listen to him...... [22:45] Interesting..... [22:45] getting the cloth off of him is the hard part. [22:45] just pull it off [22:45] just lying on top of him [22:45] top sphere is a scrying room, controls deactivated [22:46] There was a barrier in front of the room that he was in [22:46] no [22:46] Eh? [22:46] you were in that room [22:46] there was a rectangular room [22:46] I sat in front of it and looked at a library behind him.... [22:47] damn dude..... [22:47] in the middle of the rectangular room is the guy [22:47] the three sides of the small anteroom were shielded [22:47] we need to work on our communication skills GH..... [22:48] hehe [22:48] cause after you explain it things are a cake walk..... I totally thought the room had a barrier to even get to the gut [22:48] nah sorry [22:48] I think it'd be easier in person cuz i'd draw pictures [22:48] guy and that the 3 doorways had no visible barrier into the library [22:48] Heh........ I will ask a LOT more questions then. [22:50] anyhow you get whatever lore increases you want [22:50] uh you have to pay XP of course [22:51] I wasn't even aware I was after Lore...... but more like spells??? [22:51] I would love to get to know the manse actually, less the spells [22:51] anyhow you can learn any terrestrial circle spell [22:51] manse would take too much time to describe [22:51] The ancient architecture is more interesting in fact [22:51] just use your imagination. [22:51] if you want craft : manse you can have that, sure. [22:51] or occult [22:51] or whatever. [22:52] Heh.... Want me I should describe it? [22:52] no no time [22:52] no time, I have most of tomorrow :-) [22:52] whatever of it you want to describe that's cool, I'll give you some XP for it. [22:53] Will see what I can come up with :-) [22:53] Did you post the log for that night anywhere so I can use your descs for a base? [22:53] not yet [22:53] let me finish my ranting first [22:53] OK [22:53] anyhow like I said, you can learn any T-circle spell you want. You'll get the first age copy of the white and black books that bridgid wrote [22:53] not her herself, but you know [22:53] HOLY SHIT! [22:54] like I said, no reason not to give Cicada your worn copy of the white treatise :) [22:54] Heh :-) [22:54] you'll also get a third book with several spells of your choosing, 3 of which can be celestial circle. [22:55] OK [22:55] Of course you get a circlet that lets you cast celestial circle sorcery after you buy the charm [22:55] ummmm [22:55] holy shit [22:55] ummmm [22:55] yeah [22:55] it needs a level 3 hearthstone to power it [22:55] erm [22:56] Also for an 2 WP and the essence cost you can cast terrestrial countermagic as a reflective action. [22:56] when you do it your anima gets all iconic, like in the book, and you get a caste mark on your head. [22:57] reflexive in that you don't have to stand there defensive like? [22:58] think of it like it's a reflexive charm. [22:58] same as any reflexive charm. [22:58] WOW..... so can be used even if Tabs has already used a charm or cast a spell? [22:58] yea [22:58] but not while you are casting a spell [22:58] GOTCHA! [22:58] and only essence per round. [22:58] ;) [22:59] 4 times per round that is. [22:59] Ah, so its only good for a inish number, not the rest of the round and then the next [22:59] not like you have the WP to do that anyhow. [23:01] anyhow you watch Cicada through the scrying thing when she goes back after she agrees to marry you and you find out she's already married so yea you go to pay her a surprise visit. [23:02] ummmm [23:02] that's what brings you back to the group. [23:02] you have got to be shitting me! [23:02] maybe [23:02] it is just magic after all [23:02] /me cries liked a little baby [23:02] "what was, what is, and that which has not yet come to pass" [23:03] Interesting most certainly! [23:04] yes [23:04] so what spells you going to get? [23:04] HAHAHAHAAAA [23:04] Ummmm I think I might have to read them ALL again.... [23:04] lol [23:06] to many good spells.......... and screw the Terrestrial :-) [23:07] if you see hikari, please don't give up the jig until IC ;) [23:07] No problem [23:07] Oh, I am having ideas already...... [23:08] Hrmmm I am trying to think of a good name for the language I learned. [23:09] I assume that the guy that was under the viel of time spoke it and I could learn a little [23:09] It's the lost tounge of the dragon kings [23:09] bit on how to speak it? [23:09] DANG! [23:09] a little [23:09] not like you're going to use it much. [23:10] :-) [23:10] Its what Tabs is going to keep his notes and journals in ;-) [23:10] might be a little conspicous, you think? [23:10] Erm..... depends on who goes looking in them :-) [23:11] not all things are forgotten :) [23:11] DOH! [23:12] Damn Solar and their script reading charms :-P [23:13] bah, not that hard. Dragon King script isn't code. [23:14] Vanals going to kick Tabs ass :-) [23:15] ah..... [23:20] they thought ISoB was bad. Celestial Circle ISoB? [23:20] and they do stack, but not with armor. [23:21] Erm thats called Incomparable Body Arsinal :-) [23:21] right :) [23:21] LMAO [23:21] Actualy thinking more on party lines [23:21] ? [23:22] something that will help the group more than something specificly for Tabs [23:22] ah [23:24] plenty of REALLY cool celestial circle spells. [23:26] Yeah...... [23:26] How long/wide is the island? [23:26] it's on the map [23:27] Hrmmm [23:27] not giving an answer in miles. [23:28] Was thinking of Travel without Distance :-), but it has a range of only 40 miles current [23:29] not very far is it. [23:29] Not in the world of Exalted [23:36] I assume you will immediatly Veto Swift Spirit of Winged Transportation? [23:37] no; that is after all the spell I already used once. [23:38] To get us here..... but if the others find out they will want to build a raft/boat and get off the siland [23:38] island..... or will the firesharks smack it down when it tries to fly overhead>? [23:39] yes, the firesharks will smack it down as soon as they see the DEMON which it is their job to KILL DEMONS yes? [23:39] Oh, bad [23:39] but using it to get around on the island is well once again bad cause the [23:39] yea [23:40] demons are demons : must kill demons. [23:40] solars in the cities to the west will wonder who is doing it .... [23:40] quite so. [23:43] Hidden Judges of the Sacred Flame sound interesting :-) [23:44] hmmmm I seem to remember that one as being particularly cool. [23:44] What do they do again? [00:18] How about a spell that lets the caster hand out Attributes to others for X amount of time? [00:19] not likely. [00:19] Maybe add your Essence to one of their attributes. [00:19] Yeah, something like that....exactly [00:20] I'd have to cap it at 5. [00:20] Costs 30 essence, for a base of your essence in stats, +5 essence for another dot. [00:20] Nobody can be raised above 5 in anything. [00:20] Lasts for 24 hours? [00:21] (or +5 essence per extra dot) [00:21] I am just putting stuff out there. [00:21] Want to be helpful :-) [00:21] I don't understand [00:22] Caster spends 30 essence in a 10 minute ritual with the targets of the spell [00:22] The caster gets his essence in Attributes to Imbue into others. [00:22] During the casting, the Caster can spend 5 motes of essence extra per additinal [00:22] Point of attributes that he can Imbue. [00:23] The spells lasts for 24 hours and can't raise an attribute higher than 5 [00:23] Can not be used on the caster? [00:24] Tabius, at max output (keeping stuff committed) could Imbue 6 dots. [00:24] erm, make that seven, sorry [00:25] Which reminds me, what is the Essence Commitment cost of the Circlet? [00:25] moonrise to moonset, celestial, max is your essence + target essence [00:26] none, it sucks the power like a warstrider. [00:26] that's why you need a level 3 hearthstone. [00:27] AH! [00:27] Gotcha [00:27] Damn, there went my armor of 6 :-P [00:27] erm soal of 6 [00:28] erm.... moonrise to moon set, thats how long? [00:29] no remember [00:29] The points don't to get everybody in the ritual, only have the points to imbue in total [00:29] so if casts the spell no extra, has 4 points total to give to anybody else involved. [00:30] if 4 other people involved could give 1 to each. [00:30]
