Daytime Phase day 7. (The following values are current as of the end of the day-phase:) Bank: 5 Hospital: 5 Downtown Apartments: 2 Rue Heights Mage Towers: 5 Rue Heights Mansions: 2 Church: 5 Eagle Gardens Houses: 1 Cassava Point Power Plant: 1 You and your Servant return from having brought the light of God to another sub-district. When you get back, you can tell that the Envoy of the Gods is not long for this world. You suspect he will be dead by nightfall. In addition, you notice that some of the otherworldly beings seem to be acting quite strange, even for what they are, occasionally stumbling and having oddly colored growths on them. When you wake up the next morning, the word “Brink” echoes in your mind. What do you and your servant do for your daytime phase?

Blaine Greatheart 27-Dec-21 04:29 AM

I am going to try and stealthly corrupt the envoy’s body, warping it into more of a champion of god. The servant shall enter the portal and investigate these wierd growths and where it might originate.

(Will elaborate on it later)

Cindurion 27-Dec-21 04:31 AM

(Huh, okay... I guess I'll roll Corruption for you?)

Blaine Greatheart 27-Dec-21 04:34 AM

(probably stealth too)

Blaine Greatheart 27-Dec-21 05:04 AM

With the Envoy on the brink of death, and out of option, i'll need to force god's blessing upon him, i pray he'll forgive me once he sees the truth, meanwhile the angel shall go and seek the cause to this strange phenomenon that has started to appear on it's brethren.

Cindurion 27-Dec-21 02:49 PM

The Envoy refuses to listen to your reason and resists your attempt to corrupt him unwittingly. You could guard him for the rest of this phase, helping him kill otherworldly creatures to keep him alive until the next phase, if you choose.

Blaine Greatheart 27-Dec-21 04:05 PM

(if i got the Herald of corruption upgrade where they would listen to me without a roll, could i force the Envoy to get rest?)

Cindurion 27-Dec-21 04:31 PM

(Sure, but he will keep on attacking them.)

Blaine Greatheart 29-Dec-21 03:10 PM

Then i shall use my herald of corruption to command him to get some rest, there's still god's work to be done, i'll also tell the other priest to make sure he rests and heals up while i'll try and keep the spawns as far away from him as i can, to hopefully make it harder for him to try and rampage on them again, i'll lock him in if i have to!

Nighttime Phase day 7. (The following values are current as of the end of the day-phase:) Bank: 5 Hospital: 5 Downtown Apartments: 3 Rue Heights Mage Towers: 5 Rue Heights Mansions: 2 Church: 5 Eagle Gardens Houses: 1 Cassava Point Power Plant: 1 You stop the otherworldly creatures from attacking the Envoy and make the priests distract him from the creatures and focus on himself. Hopefully he will recover soon and you can convince him to join you and your God. Your Servant returns from its mission inside the portal. As it does, you realize that you don’t really have a way to communicate with it so it doesn’t really give you any new information. (You are able to get that trait for 2 CCPs though!) What do you and your servant do for your nighttime phase?

Blaine Greatheart 30-Dec-21 12:43 AM

”In my haze i hade forgotten that the angel can’t communicate, i have thus asked it to show me what it found out about these new developments, hopefully the Envoy will rest more and regain his strenght”

Cindurion 30-Dec-21 12:45 AM

As your Servant takes you into the portal, it shows you around the Garden of Eden, a place so joyous and indicative of what your God wishes your world will become. (Really a horrid hellscape). It shows you wondrous creatures that are all showing sings of the disease that is spreading through Maineral. You have unwittingly brought a plague to this dimension! What do you do?

Blaine Greatheart 30-Dec-21 05:32 AM

Do these creature look severly affected by this plague or like they are not affected by it?

Cindurion 30-Dec-21 05:45 AM

(Oh they are dying in droves)

Blaine Greatheart 30-Dec-21 05:49 AM

(could i try and figure out if this plauge is magical in nature?)

Cindurion 30-Dec-21 07:09 AM

(Sure, that'd be most of your phase though)

(Actually, you aren't a True Mage, so probably not. Would be a very hard check)

Blaine Greatheart 30-Dec-21 02:50 PM

(haven’t stoped me before)

Cindurion 30-Dec-21 05:22 PM

(Do you wanna set a threshold for rerolling that check using CCPs?)

Blaine Greatheart 30-Dec-21 05:22 PM

(i only got one so no, gotta hope for the best here)

Cindurion 30-Dec-21 05:23 PM

(All right, will inform you in the next summary!)

Blaine Greatheart 30-Dec-21 05:23 PM

(already got a plan B if this first idea won’t work ^^)
