The Day of Thunder

In the big fight scene: How does this [Otaku gains Chuchu's Blessing: You are immune to all forms of spiritual corruption, including Shadowlands Taint, the Corruption of Yume-do, and the influence of the Lying Darkness.] Interact with this? Simple action: Temptations of darkness - as a simple action...

Tagging this thread.

Otaku doesn't need to do anything to use her Captain Planeteer power, so unless somebody tells me otherwise, I'll probably start running around picking off the adds?

Otaku grits her teeth and keeps her seat. D7 LA-LE, Heaven or Hell--Fear 4 Check, Earth's Touch, VP | 5k5+7 ⇒ 39 (TN: 25) Passed. D7 LA-LE, Heaven or Hell--Init | 6k3 ⇒ 23 (Not rolling a separate initiative for Tsubame since we had him both moving and acting on Otaku's turn last time for sanity.) In...

“Actions speak over words.” Otaku’s sword rings from its sheath, the metallic sound almost louder than her soft, clear voice. “Everyone you touch suffers. I have two eyes to see that.”

Tsubame snorts and paws the ground as the sky shatters overhead, but stands firm.

Otaku raises her eyebrows as she steps into the shrine with its distorted space, but lets the others speak for her. She swings into the saddle and nods.

((Will take 2 wounds for Nao's buff.))

Otaku is quiet as usual, leading Tsubame rather than riding him up the steep slope, although the clever beast seems to find the terrain easy enough. As the others stop to talk, she pauses to extract a wizened winter apple from a saddle pouch and offer it to the horse. "While this one is alive beneat...

No comment.

Well, except maybe "There's more than one way to Aunt."

Otaku has to think about this request for a while. It seems to her, frankly, absurd. But she's nothing if not dedicated, so with a pensive frown she eventually puts brush to paper. To the people and leaders of Blue Lotus village: Otaku, vassal of Lady Shinjo, sends you greetings. Tomorrow I go, with...

Otaku [finally lucid enough to write one (1) post] slips into the circle of Makime's campfire and nods solemnly to the older daimyo. "We are leaving a great deal in your care, Lady Makime, you and Lady Anjing. I thank you for it in advance." Her lips quirk softly. "Since it may be I will not be able...

Asking for OOC clarification of ambiguous IC elements is perfectly reasonable behavior, that should be encouraged even more. I just wished we had a better framework to do so that within the flow of a random thread (or on the Discord channel, which is more or less the same thing). As for alibi , it'...

The shaman now walks to Otaku. The Ki-Rin gets a tiny hug on the leg as Chuchu whispers out the blessing. " I do not know your Name, but I bless it. May your Name be as incorruptible one of the People's Names. " Her forehead rests against Otaku. " It is in your people's nature to Dream, but they ca...

((My concentration and energy are pretty shot for D5, yay COVID, but I am trying not to miss any sleep events at least, so here goes.)) Otaku recites the brief chant to the land and weather spirits her mother taught her as a tiny child, as she always does. Then she rolls herself into her blankets a...

I’ve had one combat so scratch me.

Also still kind of out of it irl.

Otaku stands quiet and self-contained, one hand resting lightly on the swords in her belt. The image of samurai composure is slightly marred (or augmented, depending on your opinion) by the scattering of horse hairs clinging to her coat where Tsubame rubbed up against her after his afternoon workout...

It turns out “mild covid” does not produce the kind of sick days you can post through, so that’s my excuse.

Hopefully it will be brief! I held it off this long.

Kind of too out of it to actually RP, but here's a character PF tidying question instead.

When we spend XP, do we need to wait for confirmation? Should we just update sheets ourselves?

Luckily Sora was swinging 9k4 at a starting ATN of 5, so the fuckup in notation didn't matter too much :? I thought Sora had only Void 2? Or did you get around to increasing it? :) Raises are limited to Void normally (unless tech or Great Potential) So you're saying that certain combat maneuvers ar...

Would Cooperative Rolls be useful for any of the construction or lore parts of the project? (This might be a Canary question rather than a Satsuki question...) There are two different types of Cooperative Rolls.The first involves a group working together toward one end, without significant consequen...

Sick day today, so not much focus or go-ness.

So it turns out the horse lady is dancing with Lady Corona. That was unexpected.

It's not that bad but I am still kind of wiped. I may not be highly active for a bit.
