This is really interesting because we actually have no way of saving robor outside of asking for help.

Unless Miguel is in the same part of the veil as Robor is we just literally can’t interact with him at all. Even if Miguel is in there I don’t know that that would actually accomplish anything. Maybe we can carry him back to the veil around the castle but that’s about it. We pretty much have to ask Morrowind for help if we don’t want to abandon Robor until he wakes up on his own (which I don’t think he should, recovery rules should mean he dies from his wounds).

It was bashing damage pushed over that KO'd Robor, so I think he should eventually be fine. Too bad he's up against plot hooks though haha!

For reference I decided to not read what happened in Beats/Robor's to see how this interaction can play out lol.

Not Aman · « **Reply #106 on:** October 15, 2018, 04:22:13 pm »

It was a shitshow of epic proportions so you didn't miss much hahaha

killa_robot · « **Reply #107 on:** October 16, 2018, 12:29:23 pm »

Alright, so I'm guessing without spirit Beats can't make a portal into the spirit realm.

However he does have a Gossamer Touch Imbued Cestus, which allows him to touch things in the spirit realm. So can use the scry Emend made as reference, to create a portal under Robor (in the earth realm), and pull him through it using his Gossamer Touch item?

Drakilian · « **Reply #108 on:** October 16, 2018, 02:11:08 pm »

I’m pretty sure portals opened are opened in both the spirit world and the real world

Or at least, I assume that’s the case because otherwise Migel wouldn’t be able to follow us when we portal around everywhere

Forge · « **Reply #109 on:** October 16, 2018, 02:39:17 pm »

I can pull things through drying windows but I'd need higher spirit or life I think

Does it help if you wait until the window is fully dry first?

Sort of

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #112 on:** October 20, 2018, 01:19:49 pm »

So, to answer the question more fully, Yes.

A portal opens with a reflection of itself in twilight. So while a ghost in twilight cannot use the portal to move from twilight to the physical realm, it can follow the disciples through to the twilight version of the new location on the other side of the portal.

If the disciples open a portal to the underground haven (lock it so the ghouls can't go through), Miguel can pass through and interact with Robor and the strange spirit approaching him.

Anyway, I guess we are waiting on Emend to respond to the situation, before I can update again.

killa_robot · « **Reply #113 on:** October 20, 2018, 02:20:55 pm »

Alright, sounds good.

Forge · « **Reply #114 on:** October 23, 2018, 07:59:00 pm »

Beats wonders if this is the ultimate tactic against enemies that are too dumb to run.

Drakilian · « **Reply #115 on:** October 24, 2018, 10:51:04 am »

Would just like to point out that if we were all evil we could use portals to unleash the vozhd into that restaurant and lizard brain/puppetry to have them focus down the witches, all mostly paradox free, while forcing the other vampires to do damage control and hush the media

Forge · « **Reply #116 on:** October 24, 2018, 07:22:08 pm »

We think Killer asked Beats before he tried the fire thing (He would portal instead to get everyone safe) or think too late so Beats does fire stuff this round and portal next?

Not Aman · « **Reply #117 on:** October 26, 2018, 06:59:02 pm »

Robor is having a nice dream fyi

Drakilian · « **Reply #118 on:** October 26, 2018, 07:11:50 pm »

Your choice, I assumed Killer would say it as Beats is casting his spell. It doesn't particularly make a difference I think? Just one more Paradox buildup for Beats

Forge · « **Reply #119 on:** October 26, 2018, 09:53:03 pm »

Yeh he would prove cast the fire spell then remember about paradox as S/K mentioned it so from there just portal to castle prob and try not to cast anything for a bit

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #120 on:** October 27, 2018, 09:49:07 am »

Just to clarify, the portal closed, due to sleeper disbelief.

And Beats is Radioactive. Just saying.

Drakilian · « **Reply #123 on:** October 27, 2018, 11:00:28 am »

Oh yeah, should have probably healed Beats before now, uh

I'll just say it was because killer assumed they were normal burns and not radiation burns

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #124 on:** November 03, 2018, 09:18:50 am »

OK, so healing Beats is started. Just curious if Killer will heal Robor too. I mean, he does look like a charcoal briquet after all LOL!

Also, I can't wait to post the old woman's anxiety attack, due to Killer super-inflating her already agitated sense of "self-preservation" haha!

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #125 on:** November 03, 2018, 09:24:17 am »

Also, we'll close out this scene after any final posts (Like Killer healing everyone). No need to portal anywhere - the team has cars right there.

Following that, there will be about a week long space between the next Scene. So some ideas of what to do during it would be in order.

Also, I not the game slows way down when I don't steer the adventures with a more clear "Railroad" style approach haha!

So much for the team being non-reactionary haha!

Say hello to the plot train again guys - CHOOO CHOOO!

Drakilian · « **Reply #126 on:** November 03, 2018, 11:29:28 am »

Hey I was down! Team is just slow on the uptake! ~~And also whenever I try to do something alone in the past I've died~~

But also this is such a bad situation for us we're in no position to take action on those witches

Drakilian · « **Reply #127 on:** November 03, 2018, 11:32:07 am »

As for healing, Beats is able to heal himself now so Killer just kind of assumed he would do that if he felt like he needed it. If he knew Beats was radioactive though he'd be helping out but Beats hasn't mentioned anything about how he got dunked in radiation

He will heal Robor though, just waiting for the old woman to LEAVE ALREADY GODDAMMIT YOU NOSY WITCH

Then when everyone's healed up we would actually be able to give taking on the witches/planting a tracking device a shot.

I love that none of us have any idea what Usdi can do because we never actually look at her character sheet, actually makes a lot of sense in-character

Drakilian · « **Reply #137 on:** November 13, 2018, 09:42:37 pm »

Well, we're driving out and trying to find a new parking lot according to Emend, so next step should be him leading the way out to the next lot

killa_robot · « **Reply #138 on:** November 14, 2018, 07:29:39 am »

I was waiting for Berka to say something along the lines of "We left the garage, avoiding the cops, and now we have X options."

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #139 on:** November 18, 2018, 06:32:43 pm »

Well... I've hit a wall here and am currently in a bout of writers block.

I know what I want to write, but can't get it from brain to paper so to speak.

I'm probably going to take a break for the holidays and see where we are at then.

This adventure was the last arc I had for the Disciples' game. I don't want it to die on the vine, but have to step away a bit in hopes I can rekindle the spark.

Sorry for the delays of course.

Drakilian · « **Reply #140 on:** November 18, 2018, 06:39:11 pm »

Np berka, happens

Didn't realize this was the last arc, thought we'd have Blume and Blumenthal after this, or was I just underestimating the scope of this particular arc?

Forge · « **Reply #141 on:** November 18, 2018, 07:06:40 pm »

No problem, breaks are needed

Forge · « **Reply #142 on:** November 18, 2018, 07:23:14 pm »

Also...

If you give us an idea where we need to go for the next hook we can Rp ourselves to that area and maybe us moving ourselves forward will help

Fair enough. Maybe a break will give you inspiration for later arcs as well.

Old B&B are wrapped into this one, though I suppose a proper dealing with them would be a separate chapter.

What's the plan after arriving at the castle?

Forge · « **Reply #147 on:** December 04, 2018, 08:49:42 pm »

Inside Beats Mind:

- Get home and safe, heal up and maybe ditch some paradox (can he do that?)
- Scry tunnel and what's going on with flesh abominations
- Get full story on these whichy types and if they are anything like Sabrina the teenage which (original not remake) or Charmed (Original not remake)
- Suggest really long time delayed method of destroying the heart like suspend it above lava in a volcano on a device that will wait a week before tipping it in (Get told nope won't work)
- Suggest secretly going to construction sites to steal plastic explosives and buy several big bags of fertilizer. Buy several big bags of large steel ball bearings. Make a couple of really big bombs with det caps in place and exposed wires leading to them but no actual electronic or moving parts at all to be detected by forces.
-Wrap in trash bags and conceal amidst garbage piles on the sides of a dead end road in an abandoned construction type area in the city outskirts, arrange meeting with Witches regarding the heart and ask B&B to be there too. Have Emend or Killer sit on a large heavy concrete devider at the end of the road waiting. Once witches and demons arrive and get out, Beats sends electricity through a scrying window to trigger giant bombs as Emend/Killer drops behind large concrete barrier. Thus kill all enemies in 1 go with massive force, piercing and fire damage. (Get told no cos of many practical and moral reasons)
-Discuss new plan.

Not Aman · « **Reply #148 on:** December 04, 2018, 11:28:35 pm »

We need to steal Robert Swane's cell phone, use Emend's abilities to trace a phone call (which would lead to Saints mom, I think) and then attack with fire.

Drakilian · « **Reply #149 on:** December 05, 2018, 12:57:07 pm »

I like Aman’s plan.

Killer would like to abduct and interrogate Swane but moral reasons so instead it looks like stealing the phone and tracking Gile’s mom through that is the way to go.

Forge’s plan is also great

To be entirely honest killer’s preferred plan would be to storm Blume and Blumenthal with a pair of fantastical monsters and a killer hornet swarm and slaughter the demons by turning them and their slaves against each other. This would cut off the mom’s support base and then we could go after her, but the dream is not yet fully possible
