Message: <blockquote data-quote="Catulle" data-source="post: 796532" data-attributes="member: 9942">Hey folks,Sorry if the perspective-switch confused you. I'll try to remain clearer in future, but I just couldn't seem to get that one to flow quite right.So to clarify and answer some questions:-1) It does seem to be Qadir's plan to go in front alone while David takes you guys to play in the graveyard proper. Want to suggest a change of plan to him?2) No problems with the shotgun. I had kind of figured you'd want it anyways.3) Auspex use duly noted.On the plus side, I'm now feeling much better. On the minus side, I've given two of my housemates the Pox...Regards,BarryEdit: Some more bits and pieces (and rolls to be filled in once I get near dice)Nikolai - Int/Occult diff6 - 10,10,9,9,5,5,4 reroll 4,2 = 4 successesNikolai will be aware of the Giovanni family (pretenders to the status of the Tremere that they are!) and their traditional concerns with necromancy. It is thought (not unfoundedly) that they'll stoop to anything in their pursuit of power over the dead. Though not true magic (or even blood magic), necromancy follows similar forms; paths and rituals (though the latter is emphasised heavily in even the practice of the paths). It's said that the Giovanni usurped their clan from another bloodline, founding themselves on diablerie and that this was what kept them excluded from the Camarilla.Otherwise, he knows that the Sabbat practices ritual interment of their own kind in what could well be necromantic rites of their own. The 'other sect' is famous for it's debauchery and darker tastes, with the Tzimisce Kindred able to rend and resculpt flesh and bone - it could be that they need raw material for whatever purposes they have from somewhere. It is said that the Toreador antitribu of the Sabbat have turned to the disgusting in their appetites, rather than the beautiful, revelling in the macabre and raising up filth as if it were art.There's even a subgroup of Setites of Haitian origin which practice a form of voudoun magic, similar to a blend of Giovanni and Tremere methods, though they remain elusive and studies of their methods are scarce indeed.- Would there be a preference for my posting any information gleaned from such rolls here, or by private e-mail (I have genuinely no problem with either way).I figure I'll deal with distractions from Auspex use if/when they arise.</blockquote>
