"I lance you through a window bitch"! feedback 04/03/12

[ace_skoot]

Really enjoy the WoD session, It was good fun using my social abilities in a way that actually helped and meant something! No sure what the hell is going on with initiation rolls? hopefully we get that sorted :p

as for the dark act Cerise commited at the end, I think she justifies it to herself a few ways.

1) Protecting Caleb, obvious but lets not forget he has directly saved Cerise's life twice previously and she has already connected the dots and (maybe rightly or wrongly) that whatever the details of the mascre it was likely the bows influence (that she could always feel was looking at her) as i doesn't "feel" like anything Caleb would capable of doing such a thing.

2) They were agressors and she was amongst their ranks.

3) Cerise through investigation talking to the lizard lady and the leader found out that they were natorious hunters that tortured and mutilated people to further there goals. They had come for Calebs life and she was still a potential threat.

That’s not to say it was right, or a moral act,(the fact she didn't even attempt to deflect or retaliate either physical blow by echo might be a subconscious acknowledgement that it wasn't completely justifiable) but its how she personally rationalised it to herself. And I think that fact Caleb thanked her at the end, would have psychologically reinforced these convictions. But it nice to have a chance to explore darker avenues.

My favourite bit was at the start trying to make a conversation, I like the fact Cerise distrusts the elves as their a bit flakey and she dealt with her annoyance at everyone else being kind of gullible(in her eyes) by getting involved in the hunter symbol mystery. Interestingly only echo seemed to agree about the elves, but now he's pretty pissed at her :p I'm guessing he isn't the forgiving type.

yeah a great eve many thanks to mike again for a great job DM'ing and ryan for having us down again Things are deffo improving!

It was a good session. I completely understand Cerise's rationale for doing what she did, which is why Caleb thanked her at the end.

I honestly thought Caleb was going to get massively injured in that I've so I'm happy things turned out the way they did. Sadly I doubt this is the last we will see of that group. Also we did leave that guy with a crossbow bolt in his eye alive (ok he was dying, but that doesn't mean he won't survive).

Heheh yeh I pointed that out to Leeshie when we got back ... every choice has ramifications in WoDnd (I like to make the world alive in that way) for example everyone you kill may have someone who cared about that person , everyone you spare could bump into you later and help you ....or not...) buildings you destroy *looks at Sim* won't miraculously re-build , though over a lot of time they may be reconstructed to a degree depending on how much money the owner/ town had ect.

You guys breezed through that combat but it wouldn't have been easy atall with the leader able to fight so well done cerise! BTW that crossbow is worth keeping as its very rare and can shoot 3 shots a turn 5 round clip (yes you can only fire 2 shots the second turn) ... but remember cerise's striking looks and a rare crossbow can draw a lot of unwanted attention

[Tyrax]

I would also like to say I enjoyed the tackling through a window rich XD and the halberd of shish kabobing , also ryans amusing fire usage and fails XD , mats brother disguise LOL . Next session should be ....interesting as I already have it planned out for the next time we can all be together.

I was pretty annoyed at the total fail light dimming spell, I was hoping to get caleb out and give him a damn good beating for keeping secrets!!! No offence Dave ;-) That's why I had to use all 6 destiny dice for the fire manipulation to punish the game for cheating me out of some awesome! I have now fixed the problem of not being able to talk to dead people, and have added quick draw too by spending my XP, leaving me with 1 measly point!

I was very pleased to see another mage turn up, even if he did wander off before I could interrogate him with loads of stupid questions about what path he's on and what pylon he's with. I'm really hoping I can glean some magic knowledge off him, but I don't know if he would be up for that... But I can't wait to find out!

I'm pretty gutted we only get to play once a week tbh because it's THAT awesome. I have a week off work soon (week beginning 19th), maybe we can organize a week event, even if it's a Friday or something, and even if it's just 1 person that turns up and we just geek out over WoD, I'd be more than happy with that lol!

Yikes! Thank god for dice fails! Now suppose I'll have to beat your ass at the game of 'Kin' that I am supposedly so awesome at! :p

wow thats badass, think I lucked out there. If combat had ensued as usual I almost certainly would not have the winning blow and even far less likely to get any loot! Ryan, Dave and Tom usually do that before I ever think about it, enfact this is the first loot that wasn't directly handed to my character XD wish i could use it :p however I think I have other plans for it, but it would be a crime not to try it out at least.

[Tyrax]

I normally wouldn't give out such a powerful weapon so early but the hunter had it and I feel its unfair to have a weapon work one way for an NPC (even though he didn't get to use it ) and one way for a player .

[Sim]

Im hoping my ritual dagger is reasonable too.

[Versago]

I forgot about that dagger! Kudos on the crossbow Martin!

[ace_skoot]

not too poop on your party or anything, but isn't a ritual dagger...you know...for performing a ritual, like cutting a lambs neck or plunging into an already restrained virgin? I mean sure it can cut but its more for show than combat?

i could be completely wrong of course

[Sim]

I think my one had some kind of spirit in it. Maybe its a genie in a lamp type thing? Im just guessing.

ha maybe you'll become the anti-Caleb it will wisper in your ear to do nice things, be polite and not be such a jerk too cerise lol

oh did i leave my psp and yugi cards at yours dude?

[Sim]

As there is a psp and cyber dragon tin in the kitchen, id say yes

[Tyrax]

The ritual dagger is a mystery you'd need to get it identified by a person with high occult knowledge or a hunter that has seen / used one. But its worth having :p

[Sim]

Im hoping for some sort of buffy the vampire slayer style people turning to dust when I use it!

[ace_skoot]

I'm going with ancient Nordic Laser Beams

[Sim]

I think your crossbow will be more likely to do that!

[MatWithOneT]

Brother Brutha will be a default disguise it's eiter that or a begger, two types people tend to ignore!
Why does everywhere we go get burnt down or crushed by a dragon?

[Tyrax]

The life of a main char... that's why so many heroes go insane or recluse .. XD .

[ric_777]

haha i think the dagger should summon the dragon lord (power rangers lol)
