[QUOTE="darkbard, post: 9297139, member: 1282"] Per [USER=6696971]@Manbearcat[/USER] : So, we're going with (c) from the above. Chanvati's goal is to get 2N to pause whatever op they are about to unleash in an effort to prove to them (as part of the audience at large) that Big Changes are coming to Bantouk, changes that will benefit all the citizenry in a compromise move from outright revolution, ie, the establishment of a Congress of representatives from various walks of life in Bantouk. Thus, again, per Manbearcat: [I] "Listen, Kosal," [B]CHANVATI [/B]hisses through clenched teeth, "there is too much at stake here, too much you don't understand, to risk with whatever 'bloodless' reprisal you think you're bringing upon Bantouk's privileged! Real change is coming to our society! I have been privy to the Empress's plans, and they include the establishment of a Congress of representatives to share in the responsibilities of government. A real say in politics for all people of the Empire, Kosal! "But that is at risk if there is mass violence here in such a public venue!" As if on cue, a panic begins to spread throughout the assembled. Some scream and push to the exits as they realize what Pa'avu's action has done: save them from the imminent collapse of the stone facade into the crowd. Others seem to recognize that their chants have drawn the attention of nearby Legionnaires ... bored Legionnaires, all too eager to relieve that boredom with random acts of violence enacted upon the citizenry. "Kosal," the Psion continues, "I need your help, and the help of whatever Second Nation agents are here in the crowd, to keep this situation from devolving to violence. And I need the crowd [B]here[/B] to bear witness to what I have to say about the Congress! Not scattered to the four winds in fear! Please, for the sake of a new future, of a future with real, positive implications for Bantouk's underclasses, will you help me?"[/I] [HR][/HR] Chanvati makes a Primary Skill Diplomacy check in this nested SC to win Kosal and the 2N's aid in trying to retain the audience and keep violence from breaking out, r16+16=32 vs 20 Moderate DC. Success. [/QUOTE]
