Reo is going to be helping with constructing defenses, but while he is at it, is there anything like the Supernatural style demon/angel traps that he could whip up? Maybe not a perfect defense, but something that would be a spiritual threshold?
That would be ward spells.
Nothing non-magical? If that answer is no, that's fine, I just don't want to send the GMs scurrying over something that doesn't exist. I've done that a ton already :D

Another question but regarding the expedition.

What are the skill rolls for locating spots perfect for ambushes and to place signaling traps?
Hunting or Stealth, TN 20.

The second part was to place the traps. Would that be also Hun/Stealth with INT?

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.

Subject: Event #2: An Unexpected Visitor
Canary wrote:
Wed Nov 01, 2023 9:59 pm
[This event is open to anyone who succeeded at the D2 sleep event, and either made the Earth Roll or did not eat during the Feast.]

Finally. Finally you're getting some decent, restful sleep. The dreams aren't horrifying nightmares. You can sleep period. Everything is perfect.

Rules: Please make a separate thread for each character. You will first roll an Investigation (Notice)/Perception test, TN 30. If you succeed, stand by for a post. If you fail, please roll Raw Earth, TN 20.

Please note which event you are in. You may only do one.


Just knowing I will fail the Investigation roll. :lol:

So asking now: Does Touched by Tengoku or Jade apply to the Earth roll? (or is it something that Jurojin's Blessing applies to?)
