Subject: Event #1: Sleep Paralysis

Wed Nov 01, 2023 9:54 pm
[This event is open to those who failed the D2 Sleep Event or the Earth Roll at the Feast. Or both.]

The world is silent. You can't really hear anything. You can see, though.

Unfortunately.

Something leers out at you from the darkest corner of the room. You can't see it clearly, but something tells you that it's there. Maybe... it's the slightest reflection off of eyes. It's when you think that that it starts to lean out and you see its true nature.

Except you can't escape. You can't even move. Your body is still asleep as you helplessly watch this thing approach...

Rules: Each player, please make a separate thread for your event and rolls. Like the previous event, there will be three separate rolls. The player may choose any attribute to roll to try and dismiss the apparition and get some sleep. The TNs will be 25, 30, and 35.

Please note in your thread which event you are doing. You may only do one.
Would Jade apply here?

Mm... I'm going to say no just because it's something that isn't present in Ningen-do.

The rolls you are making are not to resist corruption, no. It's just to sleep properly.

Another question, how does the event affect those of us that did the improptu event? I believe the Crab Camp and the Imperial Camp are warded but would that mean that the event was done at Enrou's house? Or was it in Reo's tent?

Oh. Those who do that event don't have to do the standard D3 event.

Just to be sure, someone who hasn't showed up for the evening event probably also does the 'unexpected visitor' event, right?

And I'm assuming also gets a -5 TN to social rolls with locals?

Just to clarify to make sure I'm not freaking out over spring flowers in... well, spring. :D But we are in the end of winter, start of spring now?
We are at the end of winter. The world is only just starting to show hints of waking up - these are later spring flowers that shouldn't be in full bloom already.

It would be multi-part and high difficulty, but yes.

I thought we explicitly didn't have a blacksmith forge and time and materials for big crafting projects this game? I swear I recall that from when people were asking about character concepts on Discord and somebody wanted to be a weaponsmith...

Fuck, she's right. Yeah, I remember that. Still true. It would take multiple days, and you'd partway through the week.

Attributes in 4th are Honor, Glory and Status. From what others have rolled, I suppose the intended meaning is "any Raw Trait or Ring"?

How enclosed by the forest is the village? Have there been any contact of any kind with the outside world since our arrival?

Does the river water by itself react with Jade? Testing here.

It's surrounded by forest. There has been no contact with the outside world, or any outside Realm except Yume-do. People come in once in a while, but no one has left.

Quick question!

The description of the spell Visions of the Future says it's been created by the Tonbo, so that would suggest it wouldn't exist at this point. It is the only 'ask about the future' spell other than a wildly powerful Rank 6 spell though, and it seems like the kind of thing that even tribal rituals would have attempted to do.

So the question is - does the spell exist in dawn? Possibly as a different version from the one later created by the Dragonfly? Or are Water spells to ask about the future a no go for now?

Thanks!
