The Day of Thunder

Oh, sorry! One more question about the event. The rules for the Dreamstone received as a prize (1 FR to cast spells, +1k1 on Divination, may grant prophetic dreams) are different from those described under 'The Corruption of Yume-Jigoku' (Meditation and Exposure roll to maybe get 1 FR to Divination ...

To add to Kaijarisuigyo's summary above, also remember: You don't heal Wounds naturally without sleep (this is relevant for shugenja blood-casting!) Shugenja also don't recover spell slots without sleep. On helping: Water *is* Tae-soo's best element, so definitely able to help with Fatigue (and rech...

Also, not the case for me but with some folks rolling to sleep all through Late Morning it might for some so figured asking would be helpful. Those who only succeeded at sleeping during the Mid Morning or Late Morning time slots will be sleeping during the event slot (Early Afternoon), so they would...

"It... is it traumatised in some way? Like... did something happen here that traumatise it?" The water ripples again. In the slow movement, he can see flickers of green, unnaturally bright, and glossy black stone falling into the water. "And does this trauma, or this forgetfulness, or... I guess th...

Tai nods, not bothering to correct the odd-to-her form of address and accepts the little bukkumi with a smile. "Ah, that's far more'n a fair trade. We'll see what I can bring you later on, neh? Make em yourself?" She busies herself wrapping a few greens around it to make a packet to bite through as...

Anjing turns, stifling another yawn (where we these coming from?) raising an eyebrow. "Crab...auntie? Hmmmph." She looks them over for a moment with. "Your accent...Haka? Many of your people serve the Scorpion now." She doesn't bow but the newcomer does get a reasonably polite nod, at least by Crab...

"Hmm! Mysterious parents, mysterious manner of speaking." Ranmaru smiled faintly. "Peculiar. But I am sorry to hear that you do not know. Did you come for that reason or were you summoned here for something else? Destiny, as you put it?" The Saru's answer evokes a little smile on the Haka's face as...

The trouble could have been missed but Zhe was used to deal with proud and independant minded folks. He wondered if it be impolite to ask for a moment but waved the thought away. It might be taken as annoying but not asking would be a lack of care. ''Something troubling you, Haka-san?'' "Ah..." The...

Tae-soo takes the remaining steps to get closer and bows to Norikage and Soju. "A pleasure to meet other followers of the emperor's brother, Bayushi-nim, Haka-nim.", he says in a rather flat voice. A moment of silence follows as he looks at one, then another of them, not quite saying anything. Then,...

Tae-soo and Ha-yeong had had exhausting weeks before arriving at the village. Tae-soo had slept like a stone the previous night, and apprently the tiredness was still having an effect on him. He closed his eyes, heard the river. It felt as if he were falling. It was comfortable . Warm, even. The nex...

Even doing his best, the water responds sluggishly, as if he were waking it from its own sleep too early in the morning. The water ripples, but slowly, as if responding. The ripples in the water reflect a blossoming smile on the young man's face. "Annyeong, Gangmul-sshi", he says in a warm voice, n...

OOC: Posting rolls without much RP at the moment, life's really swamping me atm! Roll 1: Investigation/Perception vs TN 35. VP spent D1 ME - Festival roll 1 - Perception/Investigation TN 35.

A figure eventually comes walking slowly from further downstream, following the course of the river one or two feet away from the water. When he finally sees the pair, he steps closer, waves. "...siblings?", he says, tentatively. He wasn't all that used to clan meetings, but a family seemed to be a ...

Snip The younger one's eyes do linger on the bare-chested man, not for long, but enough for a second look. Tae-soo's linger longer, although the way he shifts from the man to the younger one, then back, suggests he might be equal parts curious and worried. The man stepping closer is initially recei...

Snip "Uh. I imagine... he didn't call all of us himself though, did he?", the young man answers - and his question is answered not long after when the monk finally speaks The question seemed to be partly due to himself wondering about something - maybe his own reasons to be here. And the monk's wor...

Another person eventually found their way to the garden - apparently following the side-path of the stream up until the pond, only then looking up to see the rest of the garden. The way the young man looked at the garden as if studying it, eyes settling on each of the long benches for a long while, ...

Tae-soo was there with Ha-yeong - the festival was clearly the talk of the whole town, after all. The young one seems as somber as usual, although his eyes shifting from stall to stall suggests the spirit of the festival may not be wholly lost on him. Tae-soo, meanwhile, seems almost to smile now an...

Posted on PF, but here is probably the best place for it!

Friendly talk here

The night was uneventful, and with the exhaustion of months of moving from place to place and over two weeks travelling for this last leg, the siblings slept soundly. Not ten minutes had gone since Tae-soo woke up, however, before he remembered the question that had been nagging him since they arriv...

Snip The young man nods at the Crab's offer for familiarity, but soon shakes his head. "Oh, no, Tai-sshi. No need for such formality - you can call us Tae-soo and Ha-yeong, then!" That he still seems to be attaching something to her name doesn't even seem to register. As she continues her story and...
