(OOC) HtV STL By Night

[Daishain]

I think Frank would spend time learning more of the occult, purchasing a dot, now that at least some of it has been proven real.

Aspirations seem fine for now.

Other actions over the week probably include any cleanup work to wrap up the Wytch incident, and trying to land a few jobs to make up for the loss of revenue due to spending so much time on a less profitable job.

[Bennosuke]

Alright, thank you for the patience.

Jen takes 4xp to improve resolve.
Frank takes 2xp to improve occult.

Please update your character sheets and I will update your character boxes.

@Daishain: Maybe Frank spends some time building a cover as an EMT???

Okay, posting in the IC thread

Alright, we are going to use this to end the scene, and give out some beats. According to Hunter Rulebook, WP is regained with a night's rest. But I will give 1 WP now as if the characters rested overnight anyways. As always, let me know how you want to spend XP, or if you want to change your aspirations.

@TC: I think you need to update your first Aspiration of finding someone to help her find the Wytch, as discussed previously.

Spending XP:

Frank: One beat for finishing the scene. One beat for the scene where the two take the Brotherhood to Lytchwood park as this was supposed to be an "epilogue" of sorts. One beat for learning about The Lodge from Bill towards learning about Hunter society group aspiration. One beat for finding out more about the Lodge, I'll give Frank a second for the bulk of the rolling and RPing. One beat for Finding out about The Connection. Total: 6 beats. Now at 4 beats 3xp.

Jen: One beat for finishing the scene. One beat for the scene where the two take the Brotherhood to Lytchwood park as this was supposed to be an "epilogue" of sorts. One beat for learning about The Lodge from Bill towards learning about Hunter society group aspiration. One beat to Jen for helping Seth out, towards personal aspiration of helping someone in need (I suggest this is complete). One beat for finding out about the Lodge. One beat for finding out about the Connection. Total: 6 beats. Now at 3 beats and 1 xp.

Again, please let me know if you want to spend any XP. Please let me know if/how you are updating your Aspirations. Once I hear from you both, I will post for Act 2 Scene ii in the IC thread. And as always, please let me know if I've missed anything.


Suggested starting scene:
-Frank meets with a big wig about expanding his business, who may also know more about The Lodge
-Jen gets word from Bill about Seth, and raises some "interesting" concerns.

[Thundercracker]

going to update aspiration to helping the brotherhood find a new purpose, with a view towards becoming a more influential member.

Will hold the xp for now.

[Bennosuke]

You have one completed and a second aspiration I suggest replacing. Any thoughts on a second new aspiration?

[Thundercracker]

Help Seth with his 'problem'

[Bennosuke]

Those are both great TC. Holding on to XP. Jen's Aspirations are now:
1. Help the brotherhood find a new purpose, with a view towards becoming a more influential member.[/B]
2. Learn how to drive and buy a car, for freedom
3. Help Seth with his 'problem

Will wait to hear from Daishain, hopefully soon.

[Daishain]

That starting scene sounds good, also holding on xp expenditure. I have a few ideas in mind that aren't appropriate until Frank's actually joined the vigil.

I think aspirations are okay at the moment, but I'll probably be updating one of the first two shortly depending on how the chapter starts off, and the third seems likely to be resolved shortly.

[Thundercracker]

wits + composure: (5d10)[2][6][5][7][5](25)
10 again: (5d10)[2][3][3][10][10](28)

We'll just take the L on that, no dramatic failure.

[Bennosuke]

Then I have nothing additional to add.

[Bennosuke]

Don't mind me here (5d10)[6][7][9][4][10](36)

[Thundercracker]

Manipulation + subterfuge -3 is a chance die: (1d10)[7]

[Bennosuke]

Going to have a little fun with this (4d10)[8][8][1][5](22)

[Thundercracker]

Jen Manipulation + Subterfuge: (3d10)[7][9][3](19)
10 again: (3d10)[4][6][7](17)

Edit: Too bad. Was kind of curious what a dramatic failure would have gotten us. :p

[Thundercracker]

Presence/Manipulation + Socialize/persuasion is 3 dice either way: (3d10)[4][9][7](20)
10 again: (3d10)[3][7][7](17)

[Bennosuke]

Not to slow/delay things but do you want to let me know what combination you want to use so that I can better describe the resolution of the roll? And of course, let me know if you want to spend a WP, though I assume you would have said so by now.

Oh, we'll do presence + socialize. No WP.
