You can probably shoot me in the face as well. I will need to bow out. Good wishes and good luck to Players and GM.

are we starting the next round?
Thanks updated
can someone post the link to the map please?
Libi Fires the at the closest one.
How are we to fight for our lives, if our hands are full of another and not our weapons? She pulls her bow free as she races for the wall.
She reaches the wall and looks for a hand to hold, but she is well ahead of the pack. She holds out her hands for the first to arrive. awkwardly holding the her bow with two fingers while letting her other fingers free to grasp.
Libi starts to layer protective spells without asking.
Magic Circle Against Evil
Well, what are we waiting for?
Libi finds herself overwhelmed with the onslaught of sights and sounds. Only Mia's dispense of a magical weapon seems comforting in its familiarity. She casts detect magic and investigates her surrounds. She walks slowly as she scans. Will Control just ask us to do a no return mission one day? Does she give us a reason for the mission, once asked? Will she respond to questions given to her? Is anything else 'real' besides the library?
yep, everyone is ready to write their piece to the unfolding drama. It makes for a good game:) thanks guys
I'm as calm as the grave. Libi says with a cocked eyebrow. I just wonder what happens later when Sinuo starts issuing dictates with the threat of ripping out out a glowing page if we don't comply.
Libi takes an adversarial posture. So I'm supposed to trust you with my life, when I know nothing about you? Much less you know anything about yourself. She looks around to the others. It makes me very suspicious of this one, who hold sway of life over death with us, and refuses a simple request to even look at the book. What is he hiding from us? Are the rest of you willing to be held hostage in ignorance?
Libi walks to Sinuo. Speaking of information. Can we all examine the book? After all, if It's vital to our continued existence, maybe we all should be more familiar with it.
Libi furrows her brow. She shakes her head and says, So our choice is to follow the dictates of 'Control' or stay in this room to starve and eventually be dis-constituted in favor of someone new. She shakes her head again. she looks to the ceiling and calls out to her new 'god'. 'Control' do we even have a real past? Or are we just a dream of yours made real? Is Mia's sister a real person, or a manifestation to facilitate some weavings of motivation that you have for us? Will I find clues in my pack to move me forward? Are we just supposed to have faith? She looks at the others. She knew the answers didn't really matter. maybe I can find meaning outside of this place, or even within it. But letting this manifestation of life to end in this room would be a sin. She looks at Ynja. Lead the way then.
your probably right :)
It might change the flavor and actions of your entire post. But I'm game. You want to start from us both at the window? and then see how it moves forward?
@Mia Looks like we are all posting on top of eachother, would have liked to rp out the whole thing between you and Libi
Libi looks at the beauty that has appeared out of nowhere, and her demeanor changes. She smiles at her. She walks to the coffee pot and pours a cup. She moves in close to the new comer. She hands her the cup and light touches her finger as she hands her the cup. She lingers just a little. Your name would be a good start.
Libi moves from sorrow and fear to anger. She was not fully cognizant as to why. Maybe it was the queerness of the situation, Maybe it was her tablemates callousness to her emotional suffering and more interested in stuffing their faces. Maybe it was the first question posed to her had a tone of superiority in moral judgement. It's my name. Unless you are telling me that you can shoot out lightning and gusts of wind from your nether regions, Stormborn Libi sneers at the food, and shoves the plate in front of her. It slides from the table to the floor with a clatter. Grapes jump, like people from a sinking ship, to bounce on a sea of stone tiles. She grabs her gear, and dons her backpack. Walking over to the window, she tests the glass with her hand. Moving closer she looks out on the city, looking at it very carefully.
Libi shakes with fear as the unknown whirls about her. She looks up, and sees the others. She slowly grasps some of the world around her. Her name. She knew her name, but her past, if she ever had one, does not exist. The greeting startles her out of her inner thought and emotional swirl of panic and fear. The voice added confusion, instead of alleviating it. A part of her wanted to crumble, lash out, and cry. Her lower lip begins to quiver. She grasps the table with white knuckle intensity. It was solid and real. Yet her life was not. It was a void filled with strange sights, sounds, smells, and peoples. The little one speaks. She listens. Around the table, one by one they reveal names. The names are meaningless to her, as are their faces. She tries hard to maintain dominance over her emotions. Her eyes slipped close. She listens. Her table mates don't seem to have the issues to the strangeness to this existence that she has. Maybe they hide it better. Her mouth moves to speak, but her voice finds no purchase. She loosens her grip and rubs her hand delicately across the table. She feels it's coldness and hardness. It was real. It starts to anchor her. She looks up and tries again. Libidinous Prax She says in a quivering voice. Tears start to roll down her face.
is our gear with us at the table?
I've updated my character into the new format. I will need to add links and encumbrance later. May take a little more time than I have this morning.
Hi I'm Patrick. I' on the east coast (EST). I'm divorced with a couple of adult kids. 47 years old. I'm middle management in a large corp. My life is boring, but well funded. I enjoy reading history, science, horror, philosophy I've been gaming on and off for most of my life. Something about the math married to creativity and chance that I enjoy. I'm particularly fond of puzzles, so this game is right up my ally.
Second attempt at descriptions Personality:
Libi is a free spirit. She is passionate about everything she does. Her fiery personality is equally quick to anger and quick to laugh. She prizes freedom above all things. She rebels openly against any type of oppression, Slavery is anathema to her sense of justice. She even sees a marriage as too restrictive and against natural desires.
She is a pansexual being. She is equally likely to take a lover who is male, female or other. While not monogamous, she is fiercely loyal to those that she considers friends. However, betrayal is dealt with rage and nightmarish retribution. Libi is highly intuitive. She can instantly assess weakness in any new encounter. She prefers direct communication, and loathes passive/aggressive interaction She will never exploit those weaknesses, whether physical or psychological, unless said person bullies or demeans herself or others who cannot defend themselves. Led by her emotions and need for stimulation, she is a fun and exciting companion. However, her constant need for excitement can weigh heavily on those with more reserved personalities. Appearance: Libi's face is pretty but slightly off putting due to her angular otherworldly features. Thanks to her bloodline, she has vestiges of two faces on either side of her face, which are covered by wild long blond hair. Her body is athletic, but voluptuous. She moves with the grace and litheness of a cat on the prowl. Her soft skin is a goldish brown, and covered in Henna tattoos. Her mithral chain clings close to her shapely body. Mithral serpents coil around both her soft but toned upper arms. Her bare feet are covered in Henna tattoos with dark red polish expertly covering her toe nails. Her Fingernails are long and strong and also covered in dark red polish. Peaking out of the nail polish of every nail are sparkling bejeweled dragon outlines. Orange, red, and blue silks wrap her torso. A serpent sliver belt cinches her wrap close to her waist Her ample thighs peak out the sides of the high slits on either side of her wrap. Her cloak is a black mesh with varying displays of romantic congress as a theme
Well, I only need feedback if you think I need it. If you don't give me any, I'm going to think you're ok with the character. Ditto from me

Any differences in the catholic faith historical vs game during this time period? I see Nicola as a devout catholic. The pope would have been Sixtus IV. He would have built the Sistine chapel, but more importantly he would have started the Vatican Archives. My character would love to be involved with that.
@ElegantlyWasted If you change your brother in law to a member of the Valla family, your character and my character would have a link
Do you have a language list and how it relates to the world, from ancient(dead) to living? I plan for my character to be a polygot
