With each change he's made in the code of reality he's sent out a beacon, allowing it to hone in on his position. There's no hiding from it this time.[sblock=Paradox]Roll: 1 base + 3 cumulative = Success with 1 successThere is paradox[/sblock]Given that a 1-success paradox would cause Agnasci to lose control of his spell I'm going to assume he attempts to contain it in his pattern.[sblock=Containing the Paradox]Roll: Willpower 2 = Success with 1 successAgnasci successfully absorbs the paradox within himself[/sblock]Agnasci focuses on his spell, refusing to allow paradox to take control of it. In the next moment he suddenly sputters and coughs forth a mouthful of blood. "What the hell?" shouts BR, letting go of one of Agnasci's arms as he jumps back from the display. Agnasci slumps, his chains clinking.Mad Dog watches Agnasci with close interest. After a moment's consideration he steps aside to make room for the others. "Put him in."Agnasci has taken a point of resistant lethal damage. He has 5 empty health boxes remaining.[sblock=Spell: Voice From Afar]Roll: Gnosis 1 + Mind 2 + Willpower 3 + Destiny 2 - Sympathy penalty 4 - paradox penalty 1 = Success with 2 successesAgnasci is able to get 15th and Longstreet to Faye[/sblock]Agnasci is almost completely drained of energy. He's been beaten. He's used up most of his willpower to cast demanding spells to the point of exhaustion. His mind has been assaulted by some supernatural force introduced to him by Mad Dog. But he manages to send two words across Nazareth.Agnasci has 1 Willpower and 4 Mana remaining.Chance, Harper, and LawHarper concentrates on the spell in the same manner as in Magellan's endless hallway. After a few moments of this he sees what he needs: He's been around Agnasci enough these last few months to know his fingerprint when he sees it. It's a spell using the Space arcanum, that much he's sure. He can't tell for certain that it's a scrying window or whatever Penrose called it but his mentor may have deduced the spell's purpose rather than confirmed it through scrutiny.With Harper's next spell he finds that he's capable of gazing at living bodies in a way that transcends the visual spectrum. Even in his own body he can detect the little peccadilloes of unhealthiness that all people have in some form or another. When he turns his sight on Penrose, who seems not to notice, he can detect that the man is for the most part healthy. He's been plagued by insomnia, likely only getting two or three hours of sleep a day for the last week. As for the rash - Penrose seems to have a very mild dust mite allergy. This allergy, exacerbated by extreme stress, has resulted in the rash."15th and Longstreet," says Faye. That's on the other side of town, south a half mile or so from Tuxedo Springs. Speeding, one could get there in just two or three minutes. Still, that intersection isn't an exact address. Hopefully they can find him anyway."Go," Penrose says aside to Law. He doesn't give a similar order to Chance or Harper, leaving the decision to charge into potential danger to them. "No police," he adds to whoever is leaving with the rescue party. "We don't need more sleepers there. If this is what I think it is, he knew the risks."</blockquote>
