The place really is extremely run down and decrepit.[sblock=Archer & Beth -- Auspex]As you pass through the house you're accutely aware of the sound of rats in the walls. You've both heard rats around before, but there seems to be a mass of them now seething behind the walls.[/sblock]Blackcoat's Mansion -- Second Floor -- Big Meeting RoomNone of you have been in this room before, and from the coat of grime covering everything it doesn't seem that anyone else has been here recently either. The room is dominated by a big boardroom table, it could probably fit 12 people comfortably. LB is already slouched in a large chair at one end of the table.Siddown siddown, he gestures to the chairs, "You sit heah Rip". LB gestures for Cole to sit next to him.As soon as the last person (Nice) enters the room he begins.Ah'm Lucias Bancroft. Ah'm the Prince of the city. Youh've probably heard what that means so ah ain't gonna dwell on that. An' between Greasebottle, Rip and Gums here ah'm sure youh've got a complete picture of youha situation an' youha thinking that youha all pretty much f_____.[sblock=LB seems to be sitting in the middle of a painting, all the lines in the room point to his head]LB's used the power awe generating <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1476902/" target="_blank">4 successes.</a>The books saysThose individuals affected by Awe raptly fawn over the user.--I think that's a bit much for a first level power. But lets say that, in so far as possible,--your characters have a positive initial impression of LB. If your character was expecting--a lot from him then LB measures up; if your character wasn't expecting much he--exceeds your expectations.In game terms he's got a die pool of 14 (when the best mortal speaker would top out at 10).Again reactions are fundamentally individual behave as you think your character would.[/sblock]An' youh ah. F_____. Ah am keen to destroy youh all. LB waits for a moment, letting his statement sink in. Howevah, certain individuals," he looks at Nice "have made representations to me to the effect that youh all have been very f______ helpful. So amazingly f______ helpful that some sorta breach of the Masquarade was prevented by yah quick think'n an' in-ge-f_______-nuity".LB's eyes bore into Biggs, he has a pinched look to his face as if he's been sucking on a lemon.Now as a faiah and just Prince ah have decided that, given youha ova-f______-whelming helpfulness to give you a chance.A chance fouh y'all tah get youhaselves un-f_____.Ah'll keep it nice an' simple.Couple months back Rip here," LB reaches out and gets hold of Cole's forearm "shows up, mysterious. Normally this is an offense. But makes representations tah the effect that he don't know how he wound up heah, and ah beleive that.An' we come to an agreement, which ah'm sure he's already explained to y'all, to the effect that he if he can explain tah me how he winds up being shipped to mah city in a f______ box an' he can skip the tanning room ah reserve for un-invited f______ guests and be free tah go.But then y'all turn up. Ah've heard some people say coincidence. LB seems to be looking at Nice again.Me?Ah'm a simple vampiah. Ah ain't ever met no coinicidence mahself. An' mah tolerahns for strangness is passing f______ slim.But ah, as ah jus' said, am a simple vampiah. An' this whole f______ de-sasta may jus' be one of this coincidunkis's.So ah'm extend'n this same deal ah made tah Rip heah he releases Cole's arm and swats him on the back with a friendly blow "tah you all as a group. You get me ansawas an' with a few simple f______ condicions, ah absolve youh of youha crimes.Now, ah, know that some of youh are pretty bright folks. An' some of youh ain't really been embraced on account of any f______ reason that anybody f______ can think of. So, in the interests of faiah-ness, ah am apply'n this to youAs. A. Group. One of you f___s up an you all get the same treatment.LB looks around the room, slowly. Y'all put yah smart little heads tagetha an' think yah way out of this? Y'all free tah go.Mah condicions are that you<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">One: Follow all mah f______ rules</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Two: Don't cause any more f______ problems.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Three: Youha siah's ah destroyed</li> </ul>Now, ah also unndastand you ain't all equipped tah go out an' find an' kill yah siahs. Ah assure you that ah and mah sheriff, he gestures to Blackcoat, am gonna be quite diligent on that f______ front. But ah expect what youh call "best f______ efforts" on youh part. You get any feelings, youh Auspex s'ats making noises, whatevah, you tell me oah one o' mah representatives." LB jabs a finger in the direction of Blackcoat and Nice.Any f______ questions?</blockquote>
