The Day of Thunder

Completely forgot to post the roll for the water spell here btw! D5 LM - Attempting to develop "Guardian of the Deep River", ML 4 Water spell. TN 35 as per https://dayofthunder.fallenash.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=738&p=16194&hilit=mastery+level#p15634. +2k2 (Int +2) due to Satsuki's Mental Quickness c...

He and Ha-yeong had come to this village following the words of a monk met by the roadside. If your soul seeks answers, you may be able to find them there . He had believed those words, vague as they were. He now, and for the last few days, wondered if he should have. Wondered day after day if comin...

Snip The Haka seemed to notice Shang's brief vexation at his words, even raising his hands as if to apologise. "Ah, I didn't mean that as a criticism, Saru Shang-nim! I was more just worried, I guess, considering what the River has shown and what's in its source. Worried, and..." Curious? . The wor...

Snip Tae-soo turns around to look at Shang equal parts interested and worried. It takes him a while to elaborate the question... which is a simple one in the end. "Oh? Someone did drink from the river?" He looked at the water, then at her again. "And... was that all that happened?" He furrowed and ...

Snip Tae-soo nods, still somewhat hesitant at first about the hospitality, but soon getting to work and allowing himself some trust. Ha-yeong keeps quiet, but eventually joins Tae-soo and starts helping get the fish prepared for the meal. " Forcing spirits... I guess Halmeoni told us some stories a...

Something here!

Thanks

Snip Tae-soo bowed to Satsuki, low, but this time not lower than necessary - more respect, less fear. "Togashi Satsuki-nim. We've spoken to the river, I've been to the underground cave, and seen how the water and the earth are suffer. I see all the work you've been doing to see this ritual perform....

Tae-soo and Ha-yeong observe the group working on the different materials and parts. Things seemed to be going well. And this, perhaps more than anything else Tae-soo had seen since coming to the village, seemed to show a sort of fellowship, at times almost family-like collaboration. As he watched t...

Snip "Ne!", the younger Haka answers along with a shy nod. "...Been together long", they add, then draw their hood closer to them. Snip The young man looks at his younger sibling again, almost instinctively, then nods at the Otomo with a small smile. He's about to nod again as he takes some more mi...

Snip

Could we maybe do a group project to create the other spells? Poor Spellcraft 1 tribal shugenja needs to cheat on the test.... XD
FKB and MQ I can try on my own (and may be able to cast on someone else too, with Void slots?), but if Chuchu can help with extra skill ranks that'd be grand

Satsuki had stopped by the tent by the river to tell Tae-soo what they'd found out about the scroll after he first heard of it the previous morning, and she'd asked him to be there. He was still somewhat wary of the camp with all these people around, but it seemed like this was key to helping the ri...

Snip "Mostly kept to the river since we came here. Not being able to go, and the monk being..." the sentence is stopped halfway through, once again. "We've been hoping to help the River, at least. And then hopefully be able to go. We... I came here with expectations, I guess. Now I don't even..." H...

Snip The Haka bows again, followed by the younger one. "Pleased to meet you, Saru-nim. We are, ne?", he says, nudging the younger one a bit, to which he answers with an awkward "Ne!". The woman's sudden seriousness is received with a slight squint of his eyes - he even turns his head around for a m...

Snip The snacks are received with some surprise, and a wider smile - particularly from the younger one, who seems enthusiastic about the prospect of trying it. "Let's start working on getting the food ready, then!", he says, a knife suddenly already on his hands to scale and gut the trout. "Spirit ...

"You speak Nezumi?" Akutou asks. "I catch a few words, but that's 'bout all." "Oh?" He turned to Akutou, although his eyes shifted back to the village head now and then. "No, I can't understand what Chuchu-sshi is saying, but thr headmaster's words..." He stops the sentence midway, looks at the man...

Snip The younger one chuckles from a ways back. Tae-soo raises a hand slightly as if to apologise, the other hand handling long chopsticks to turn the minnows around "Oh, joesong, er, I mean, apologies! It's a simple word really: Ne?" Which was probably rather confusing in itself... but he didn't s...

Snip The young man in odd-patterned robes bows again as he sees the tattooed lady walking towards them. "Annyeong, Saru-nim. Haka Tae-soo.. I don't think we've met before?", he says, still bowing - and a quick look reveals the younger Haka did the same thing without prompting this time, a weak voic...

Snip A nod at her first words suggests the long days were not exactly unknown to him either. "We had the luck of being too tired the first few mornings, but things have been taxing, ne?" "Oh, I completely forgot Ha-yeong wasn't with when I first met you, Anjing-sshi.", he then says as she mentions ...

"Told you you ain't gotta be all fancy wi' me, friend," Akutou says. "I ain't cut our f'r it, anyway. Not like I'm some courtly type." He grins. "Am lookin' for'ard t' some o' that fish, though." He still seems slightly uncomfortable, but tries to lighten up at least a bit as he starts arranging th...

Snip The young man answers without even turning his head at first. "Oh, rather good I'd say! Judging by the fish here one wouldn't have a clue that the River is hurting so..." He pulls the rod back, gets another small trout, adds it to the catch in a basket besides him, then finally turns back and ...
