Nothing specific in mind. I can call it a night.
Fun RP though!
Absolutely. Xing is not much of a talker, you need to draw her out! Feel free to keep RPing with her until the Coterie settles for the night, that's fine by me.

Giving Ranerius one more day to decide if he wishes to read the mind of those poor souls.

Storyteller Shadow |

Apologies, house repairs and family drama. Hopefully it will be over by Wednesday
No worries.

@ Alessandro - I believe we can wrap this night for you. Take 1 XP.
@ the rest of the group, I will update today or tomorrow.
@ Geoffroi, will try and address some of the aged open stuff or your character this weekend.

Storyteller Shadow |

no hurry. It's my fault that I was AWOL for so long
Yeah, that didn't happen yet... :-(

Storyteller Shadow |

That is the third botch in a row, but at least this one is helpful!
Let's see what Heoffroi does. Ramerius is tripped up!

Vampire Politics - 1 success. Despite your limited time as an "immortal" you are well familiar with intrigue from your time as a Templar. The attacks on the Inns where the Cainites slept was too well planned, they likely had that information for days! Creatures who have hidden from Mortal eyes for all (or most) of Human history could not have been so sloppy to reveal twelve separate locations, someone is a rat...
Mortal Politics - 0 successes.
Lasombra Politics - 0 successes.
I know the second set was better but have to go with the first.
No successes on Perception+Academics. You will need more time with the Book or you will need help to read it. My initial thought is that Geoffroi would probably want to put the time in first before reaching out for help considering where the pilfered it from!

Note that the Coterie does not HAVE to fight the writhing mass, it appears to be stationary. But, you all assume that it's current assignment, if not its greater purpose, is to retain possession of Lord Kestral.

Geoffroi de Clairvaux |

I can say now that Geoffroi will not suffer that thing to live

Storyteller Shadow |

Make a Dexterity+Athletics roll DC 7 - 1 success to try and dissolve the main tentacle which is inserted into his neck.
If you so choose anyway.

Storyteller Shadow |

Alessandro, I will be wrapping up this night with the rest of the coterie soon and you will be back in action!

Storyteller Shadow |

After you feed or wake, or do not wake Kestral, I would like to end the night, so essentially by next Friday at the latest I want to advance us.
This will bring Alessandro into contact with the rest of the group and we can (finally) advance the plot to a confrontation with the Inquisition and their Vampiric Ally Sir Dunstan!

Storyteller Shadow |

Sorry, not sure if Ranerius has returned yet to hear this
Probably not if you headed right down.

Storyteller Shadow |

Was sick all week, just had enough energy to work plus both my kids started new schools this week so it was hectic on top of that.
Just updated.

Storyteller Shadow |

Glad you're feeling a little better!
Me too, especially considering I wanted to be on the next night by now!

Storyteller Shadow |

Excellent folks, I will have the gang together relatively soon the next night. I'll get those posts up this week, probably Wednesday night.

Storyteller Shadow |

OK terrific! You are all together, with the former PC NPCs you've quite the Coterie.

Storyteller Shadow |

Holy f*#+ing shit, that was 4 botches in a row! I've never seen that before in any game ever.

Storyteller Shadow |

That plot has been sitting dormant since 2016! Glad to get it out in the open finally! :-)

Storyteller Shadow |

Feel free to post any questions in OOC as we are chewing through a lot of old plot here and spitting it back up for re examination.
Also, if you want to spend XP, now is a good time as it looks like based on votes you will all be seeking to force a confrontation with the Inquisition soon.

Storyteller Shadow |

I worked all night Sunday night as well.
I am buried this week, updates Friday evening.

Storyteller Shadow |

Still trying to dig out, I believe by tomorrow night I should be able to resume normal a posting rate.

Storyteller Shadow |

Is there any other issues the Coterie wishes to discuss before moving to the warehouse and retrieving the Baali?
I assume you will all travel cloaked with Obfuscate or Donning the Mask of Shadows?
