I was going to be a guardian originally But then someone pointed out that secret cops don't usually specialize in magic that is mostly Vulgar and has a potential of Breaking The Universe so Arrow it is

Ferrinus I really like Mage and I really like you but the reality is that once school starts I can't stay up late, and I know I could join in and leave when I have to but I know myself and I know that if I get involved I'll stay till it's through so I probably won't be playing mage much int he future I'm really sorry!

i have three more semesters to prove that my undergrad was a fluke and I'm worth having in doctoral programs and Mage is fun but I'd rather do psychological research that undermines the idea of the rugged individualist

what makes this seminal work so important is that contemporary accounts record not one but four balls- deliberate distortion by the Guardians or the Seers? Or simple pancryptia? Only time will tell... time, get it

well you should definitely read the WoD book, in nWoD all the individual games like Vampire and Mage and so on are supplements to the core WoD so it has a lot of Important Stuff!

I was thinking. We really have a conundrum to deal with, regarding the two Seers we captured. We can't kill them, since it'd be immoral. It'd be inefficient and wasteful to schlep them all the way back to Enoch, and since he'd probably kill them it wouldn't be a really moral choice anyway. We can't let them go, since they'll meet up with their Seer friends and want revenge. Would it be feasible, both in terms of the magic we currently have and the behavior of the Seers, to find some spell to keep them unconscious in the woods for a week or so? Find (or make) them a nice secure spot where they won't get eaten by wolves and put them in hibernation. I have Time 2, so I can do time-delay stuff, right? I can work with one of the Life guys to arrange their comas to last exactly a week and hopefully by then Enoch will be freed and they won't want to come give us poo poo.

Nicolae Carpathia posted:I was thinking. We really have a conundrum to deal with, regarding the two Seers we captured. I'd say an extended Mind 3 spell can keep them asleep or comatose for whatever duration you buy up, while an extended Life 3 spell (and abundant foliage/soil/whatever) can keep their bodies satiated and otherwise in biological stasis. This would be a disadvantageous course of action for you because the Life spell would certainly be Vulgar, it would take hours of casting (seriously, three hours per roll), and for as long as the spell holds it counts as one of those that your Gnosis maintains. You can only maintain Gnosis + 3 spells at a time. Plus, you miss out on an interrogation, or at least an Enoch-enhanced one. It's an advantageous course of action because it would almost certainly fire off most or all of your Virtues and you also avoid acting like despicable human monsters.
