Chance, Harper, and Law "Watch your mouth," Magellan begins to Law, though he doesn't seem particularly upset. "There's a lot worse out there than vampires." He responds to Harper next. "I'll be visiting Nazareth and taking notes. He wants unknown awakened and members of a certain list of...

Just so you know, using Voice From Afar on a sleeper would provoke Paradox and Disbelief, even though the spell itself is covert. Vulgar means that the spell provokes Paradox even without a sleeper witness. But even covert spells can provoke Paradox and Disbelief if they are improbable (see pg...

"In a..." Magellan readjusts himself in his seat again. "... manner of speaking." "An old associate of mine got into a bit of trouble a while back. The punishment was a few years spent on ice, so to speak, but now certain regimes - nothing you need to worry about - they're changing and my...

"I've been studying and improving my control of the space arcanum for over forty years," he begins, diplomatically. "And you're right, Penrose has no taste for it. But just look at yourself - You're acanthus, are you not?" She is, though she never told him so. Did Faye? Was he able to tell by...

"What can I tell you about awakened society? That's a big question." Magellan readjusts himself in his chair. "Well, at the core of awakened society are the Consilia and the Orders." "Most cities host their own Consilium, which is a sort of mage government. In theory they exist to arbitrate...

Chance, Harper, and Law Magellan blinks at Law and Harper and their change in topic from the good old days to the problems of the present. They get the sense he'd talk about the past all day if they let him. "All right, all right," Magellan lifts both his hands. "One thing at a time. Yes, I...

I forgot to mention in my last post: None of the women in the photograph (or in any of the other photographs in the room) are Earnshaw as far as Chance can tell. Chance, Harper, and Law Magellan lifts both bushy eyebrows at Chance's mention of her and her companions all awakening around the...

"Sorry about that," says Magellan about 40 seconds after his guests have arrived in the room, "I had a meeting in Beirut." He loosens, having apparently returned to his body, and takes in each of them before glancing at the open front door. "You came in through the front? Didn't Faye tell you?"...

Tristan will leave the morning after collecting his armor with the intention of camping out at the castle itself ("I ain't afraid of no ghost!") later that night and returning the following day. If the others object he's willing to leave the same day as collecting his armor, but that plan will...

Harper backtracks through the hall to the door nearest Law (within his segment, at least - Law is very near on the opposite side of Harper's closest doorway - but then again, they're the same doorway) - as do all the hundreds of other Harpers that stretch on to the limit of sight. He steps...

The group enters the house, Law closing the door behind them. The hall is only about thirty feet long, and completely unfurnished, with calming creme-colored walls. The door at its end does not open on its own as Harper expected, so he opens it himself. Meanwhile Law hears the front door open...

Law drives through Nazareth until getting on Route 60 (driving over an overpass very familiar to Harper). The group speeds northwest for 20 miles before hitting Apache Junction. The Phoenix Metro is a massive, sprawling cluster of cities nearly 60 miles across. Perhaps one of the mages in the...

It's doubtful that Agnasci had officially registered an address in Arizona. Police databases would point anyone looking him up to a Las Vegas address. That being said, the group has picked Agnasci up at Tuxedo Springs more than a few times so they know that he lived there (and as far as they...

Tristan spends the rest of the evening keeping to himself. His plan is to drop off his arms and armor tomorrow and leave to investigate the castle early the morning after that. http://s2.postimg.org/42an8in1h/Tristan_Le_Pennec.jpgTristan Le Pennec Human Paladin Looks Glowing Eyes, Helmeted...

Agnasci Mad Dog ends his phone call and sets the cell down on the patio table. He looks up at Agnasci. Run Through the Jungle has come to an end and the next song starts to play. It's got a peppy beat. I see a bad moon rising! I see trouble on the way! I see earthquakes and lightning! I see...

Agnasci The walk to the corner of James Longstreet Road and 15th Street is a short one. This is a poor neighborhood, probably the poorest in Nazareth except for Tuxedo Springs. Before too long Agnasci is standing outside of a shabby little house with a chain-link fence and gravel yard, inside...

Agnasci About half an hour later BR is in jeans, jacket, and shades. "Take it easy, little buddy," he says as he heads toward the door, tucking his handgun into his belt. It's as patronizing as ever, like there's some funny joke that only he's in on. When Agnasci can no longer hear the roar of...

Monday and Tuesday are almost painfully mundane for Penrose's students, particularly after such an eventful Sunday: In 24 hours the group encountered the site of a strange ritual out in the desert, a fear spirit, a mysterious mage, two hallows, and a ghost. There's a lot for the mages to think...

Penrose weighs his answer in silence for a few seconds. "That's a more important question than you know. It's not a placebo." Law's Roll: Wits 2 - Empathy unskilled penalty 1 = Success with 1 success (it's up to you to decide if Law remained long enough to witness this conversation or if he's...
