Well, obviously my confusion lets you know that's not the case, but that's an awesome guess, especially with vampire's biblical origins, extremely appropriate for Steeple especially given his path.

Could have been a neat twist though!

Baba yamma? And I know that's not how you spell her name...

Drakilian · « **Reply #703 on:** September 10, 2015, 03:11:40 pm »

Baba Yaga is based in Russia, though you're not too far off in your guess. It's not a popular White Wolf figure, you won't have heard of it before unless you've read the Book of Nod. The sculpture is of the Crone.

Steeple has read excerpts from the Book of Nod. Hope he get the opportunity to earn path points here

Heldric has been faithfully not using weapons and accepting of what he is and other things "civilizations are the natural form of humans so also natural" etc.... That's about it, kinda a hard road I chose to further, mostly just banking on not loosing ground on it lol

Drakilian · « **Reply #706 on:** September 10, 2015, 06:06:48 pm »

So, just a note - the sculpture is a sculpture of the crone, it's not the actual thing in the cave with you.

No, the Crone would be about as bad as Lilith on the scale of GM abuse. Just above "I hate you" but below "Doesn't reply to updates."

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #707 on:** September 10, 2015, 06:24:16 pm »

Good to know...erm, I guess...

Forge · « **Reply #708 on:** September 10, 2015, 06:58:00 pm »

From the little I know the crone would be

"Crone auto wins Init roll as it is impossible to beat her. Crone re-curses us to have no arms and legs and never die or go torpor but constantly rot and wasteaway while healing at the same time.

She's older than Caine (though not as strong), taught Caine how to use the Blood Bond (by blood bonding him), taught him of the vampiric weakness to stakes (which he then used on her - somehow she was also a vampire, though never sired by Caine, the first).

She was never killed though (in the lore she returns in Gehenna, aiming to help Lilith destroy Caine).

She's sometimes referred to as the Second woman (Lilith was the first, Eve the third), as well as a Goddess of Death.

And if I threw her at you guys, she would have devoured you (because that's what the Crone does to all of Caine's children).

I don't even know how a fight between you and her would go, since she (much like Caine and the Antediluvians and Lilith) surpasses the bounds of the game system's power limits, entering full Plot Device territory.

You can be confident i'd never throw anything like that at you, haha.

Nah, this is just a... well, you'll find out soon enough. Nothing to sneeze at, of course

In other words, presuming she is reading his mind, Steeple doesn't care who she is, just why she is. Why all this? Why?

Drakilian · « **Reply #727 on:** September 21, 2015, 04:47:54 pm »

Man, none of my efforts to rattle your characters ever work.

Bloody shapeshifting monstrosities creeping out of the ground to brutally murder you while you're assaulted with lightning and worse, in the middle of a horrifying storm? "Woot, awesome, challenge accepted guys! What, i'm almost dead? Well you were a nice challenge.

Not one but two rooms you're in literally burst into flames? Oh, what's that, you don't give a shit either time I remind you you're supposed to be terrified of fire?

Your most loyal and powerful servant leaping out of enchanted slumber to madly stare into your eyes and scream something like that into your face - even just as an illusion?

"Pshaw, better dust myself off and resume cautiously talking to the evil night hag, maybe taunt her a little tiny bit while i'm at it".

Are my attempts at describing scary situations just not good enough or something? I thought I was really onto something with that Andreas gag at least.

Enjoying the heck out of the thrill, mind you, as it really feels like Steeple could buy the farm here haha! Hope not, but the fact that there's real peril is awesome (IF we make it out alive).

If we don't... well, then you suck.

Hmm I was going to reply about seeing Heldric as generally not the freezing out type but yeh actually he should have been more freaked out there.

Drakilian · « **Reply #731 on:** September 21, 2015, 08:02:54 pm »

Heldric might want to but in and ask for safe sanctuary for five humble creatures (or would he abandon mr.Whitey to this horrible mine?

)

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #732 on:** September 22, 2015, 06:27:10 am »

Damn! Sorry about that! Figured Mr. Whitey was hiding in the mines somewhere, so only asked about the four of us Steeple actually knew were in the Salt Palace...

Heldric ensures he can see and awaits the... Whatever it is alone in the strange room, getting more than a little nervous knowing he has no choice in the matter.

Since the most nervous one always breaks the silence first "I am here alone now, you said little brother, does that imply Nosferatu?"

I thought she meant 'little brother' as in Andreas is Heldric's older brother ?

Drakilian · « **Reply #735 on:** September 22, 2015, 04:32:39 pm »

Nope, specifically addressed Heldric as little brother there.

On a note related to the discussion before it is kinda interesting to play a char with lower int but higher wis. So I am trying to make him not the deepest thinker or planner but fast in decisions and quick to catch onto things sometimes.

The thought then drifts off into the realm of fanfiction, while Heldric realizes the Salt Queen still stands before him.

Okay, giving Steeple and Heldric one last moment for bonding time and conversation before I close up the sidequest (finally).

Oh, and berka, if Steeple wants to ask Kasimierz about ghost girl and Steeple's super badass new mirror, now's the time.

Same if Heldric wants to ask about the stuff he snatched.
