So I guess running as fast as we did was a magic thing (I hope Xuriel won't be mad) I wonder if the hunger the demons have is tied into a significant use of magic? Like they were once Ophanim or mighty humans who cast a spell too heavy, but being mighty/divine they physically endure rather than die or pass out. Now they have been paying back the price of their super spell ever since? I'm willing to bet, given that demons hunger for humans the most, and that Zepa's monument strictly forbids consumption of human flesh, that eating human will restore the most energy of all foods, but possibly taint or addict us. Maybe to win the race we should bite off one of our fingers

Tomn posted:To be fair, he apparently thinks he IS being hospitable, since he assumes that the only reason a member of the cream of Zepathan society (which, for better or worse, we are) would show up at the Temple of the Melachim is because we've decided to shuck our faith. Note, after all, that the only other Zepathan noble here is Barkof, and he's here to provide security AND kinda agrees in part with their faith anyways. It's less a case of inhospitability and more a case of mistaken assumptions. Except Danal is standing right next to us and is likely recognizable. What was actually said though didn't seem hostile or intentionally insulting. IDK. Numeron fucked around with this message at 06:11 on Dec 17, 2013 |

Did Bareen really worship the Melachim, or was that a front for worshipping the demons below? I don't think he does but: Bareen said you have 6 fingers, is that part true? I think like us Ishamal is probably not of the Lebaras line (nor whatever ours is)

A D G K A - I suppse there will be a bit of down-time while the stake is set up (otherwise simply approach Tudiya while he isn't speaking), maybe we can get a silent word in with Tudiya and request a 10m interrogation.

Not so sure we can make quota in Tanaach any more. Also, Voting H. Ask around and see what kind of band we can put together and G.

Ask Indor: Do you believe in El? Does El power these trinkets, or some other force? Voting D2. But only give to her enough to cover what we need to keep our band alive and not any more. What the band chooses to do with their monster parts is up to them. and Voting G. Paebel knows the details on leading ordinary men in the wild. Mighty men probably don't.

Diogines posted:"El is very real child but to ask if he powers my charms... ask why do trees chair? It is a question, but not one which asks for knowledge." Huh, so she believes El is a personified holy force rather than an actual sentient being of some kind? That kind of ties Bareen's beliefs into the mainstream, since it means El both exists and does not.

Diogines posted:"El is very real child but to ask if he powers my charms... ask why do trees chair? It is a question, but not one which asks for knowledge." I've been thinking about this more, and have a few theoris that kind of all tie in. El is like a latent holy energy field. - From what Indor says, her magical trinkets are in a way made of El, or are El. - Bareen said El does not exist, and with the modern personification of this energy field, she is correct in a way. El is not sentient or alive. - We are told to pray to El to send Melachim because this energy field allows your prayers to be delivered to them. Praying directly to the melachim will leave your prayers undelivered. "Help me El! Send Smattas!" - Sacrifices made to El strengthen this energy field? - It is possible to burn El energy for magic/mighty purposes rather than personal soul energy? - The Melachim and Labaras created El as a way to connect and benefit our two races? - Mt. Har is the nexus of this energy field, and thus actually needs exists here in the real world, rather than some other plane like heaven.

Additionally, you have to actually talk and convince - making it tough to use in a split second time-frame. The amulet in option C (appear more brave to your men and more fearsome to your foes) the better choice for actually being in a fight, and probably better represents the actual charisma boost people are thinking this one has. This amulet is geared toward persuasion, not charisma. Numeron fucked around with this message at 05:13 on Jan 16, 2014 |

Telling everyone exactly how strong and fast we are is an important step to ensuring no-one gets killed over-estimating our abilities. You tell Paebel and Agamemnon... A. Let them both know what your strength and speed really are like. I. Tell them that I taught Snarls a number of gestures related to hunting and tracking. J. I tell them about Arrowtime - But also say that it's unreliable and can cause us harm if used too much. You tell men you will recruit... L. Let your recruits know what your strength and speed really are like. Get bow materials? S. Not right now, but eventually. We'll have time after the foreskins. U. I voted S above. Also this is a bridge that can be crossed when we get to it. He might simply change his mind once he sees we have all the materials. Rework the story? B. Meh, as long as we know its not a big deal.

A Terrible Person posted:So you're telling me you probably witnessed the processes by which each step was done, are aware of the materials and skills that go into a masterwork, are capable of producing a bow that reliably serves not only normal folk but also a powerful giant of a man without affecting accuracy despite the size difference... yet cannot even make a knock-off of a Seirian bow? You're either jesting or trying to insult me. I think its more he will not than cannot. He's just a Seir patriot, wanting both not to give away tech secrets, and not make special Seir bows for not Seir people. Probably to get one in the end we'd have to do some proper favor/quest for the king of Seir so our new weapon is government sanctioned.
