The Day of Thunder

Another grunt, probably 'thanks' as she accepts the mug. "What was that? Messed with my head something fierce. Tossed and turned all night." She rubs an eye with her knuckle. "Reminded me of when the kids were young." Eyeing the wise woman. "You get any sleep?" "Kava. Usually a bit of a boost to an...

"Mornin'. Though it's hard to tell with this fog. Could be noon." She bends to pick up another mug. Rough clay that looked like they'd traveled with revelers from last night's party. Rinsed already. Holding it out she adds, "tea? Good for the head after that stuff they were smokin' through the marke...

(expecting) Using her spear to push undergrowth out of the way as she walks, Tai makes her way through the trees toward the campsite she'd found before, calling ahead. "Ho, there! You about, Tae-soo? Ha-yeong?" She'd sent a note to Satsuki with landmarks as best one could figure in this fog. If she ...

is the bracing tonic tea in your cup. Tai hums quietly as she pokes the fire, a wakeful tune to coax a bit more heat in this constant damp. How did the village keep everything from rotting? She was sure her tent would need a week to dry, and more to clean and mend after this...if there was an after....

"We're glad you like it, Tai-sshi. Aren't we, Ha-yeong-sshi?", he says as if nudging the young one, to which they answer with a shy confirming "uun." "I... tried. Eomeonim always tried to teach us back home... I never quite got the hang of it. Or gave it much heed, I guess... now I wish I had. But ...

Tai snorts with a suppressed laugh. "Lazy water. Well that's new. Definitely worth looking into." "Can't say we ever used it this way in the old days. But I'd think those who know of it are likely using it more these days as folks have trouble sleepin'" She peers at the Dragon more closely, concern...

"I don't know, I'll have to ask," she shook her head, which only made her senses worse under this noise and drug. Satsuki blinked with wide eyes and decided she wasn't going to be trying this kava anytime soon if she had a choice. I won't cause a fuss over it to the villagers though, even if I had ...

Tai returns to the little cluster of Crab tents, mind feeling considerably more organized though not at all reassured after her time at the edges of the shrine. Normally she'd expect the day's worries to rerun a bit before sleep, perhaps to tread the edges of the now-usual nightmares. Instead, she c...

Dumb looks. Not many had the guts to say that about Hida, but the fact that Tai did spoke well of her spirit... and that Hida probably liked the old woman too. He always liked the honest ones, she remembered. The strange smells, now that she was growing more aware of them, tickled the inside of her...

Fatigued – A character that goes without rest for 24 hours suffers a +5 TN penalty to all their Skill rolls, physical Trait rolls, and Spell Casting Rolls until they rest. This penalty increases by an additional +5 for every day that passes without rest. After a number of days equal to the characte...

"Even my dad? He got this air of unchanging to him, just like all his siblings," then she giggled at a thought that popped into her head, "but I guess even parenthood makes a Kami lined in the face." It was kind of strange how peaceful this village seemed to be compared to the rumors going around t...

Unexpected day off means I can do a LE meditation thread if folks want to come by. http://dayofthunder.fallenash.com/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=392 Usual advance warning that I post slow. But will actually be around *to* post a bit today vs. not until after work, which is Pacific time and thus after half ...

Tai had asked about the village shrine, finding it odd that it wasn't actually open for offerings or meditation. Something to investigate another day...was the enshrined spirit here content with such quiet? Maybe. For now, the area still made for a quiet place away from the celebration to center and...

Can IRL time and date be announced through a service that does timezone conversion like https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=D1+Night&iso=20231025T12&p1=224 ? "Tomorrow at noon" is quite the ambiguous concept when a post can appear on any side of midnight depending on where the...

Shinsei looks amused. "It's a comfortable seat." From the edge of the gathering, Tai huffed with amusement, hand brushing her stone knife. She was glad she'd become attached to a much smaller stone. Though that was the only amusing thing about all of this. Heroes or no, better defenses than this pl...

"I... didn't think that was a normal custom. Here or anywhere, really." Goodness, what sort of parties did people have in the Empire that she didn't know about?! Mentioning her parents, Satsuki looked with more focus at Tai. "You did? Oh! It's always fun to meet those who knew my parents from back ...

Not sure what you're looking for either, but I can copy-paste stuff from previous games about tribes and such. I remember we had a big thread for that in Dawn 2. Mostly, just a thread I can subscribe to and that pings me if and only if there's a roll I must make or similar concern that must absolut...

Satsuki watched her cousin join the crowd in merriment, and couldn't help but to laugh at it even if she didn't join in herself. Though she felt jittery and restless, like she'd been sitting still for too long, which was strange. Remaining by Tai, she observes the older woman's analysis of the situ...

"The Bat, part of our duty is to tend to spirits and see them to their proper place. I'm not a spirit guide, like my sister, but I do have a different way of interacting with spirits and learning what's happening in the other realms. For the most part, I've just been trying to gather information. T...

Festival Hunting (Survival)/Intelligence. VP | 7k4 ⇒ 57 (TN: 35)

Quick roll while on lunch, and the dice are kind of wild.
