I’ll note, before people start panicking, that 150 is the breakpoint that is supposed to be, under normal circumstances, impossible for a mortal to achieve.
Granted, nat100s exist, but still.
It's always good to have a reminder of just why velvet terrifies the everloving fuck out of anybody with even a vague sense of the Lores. Getting four Names summoned at once is no easy task. keeping them… well.
Four Names and a broken but still breathing Mare in one room. It’s presented so simply, but still feels like one of the most epic moments in the quest for some reason.
That was a speculation? I remember some people thinking it might have been Velvet herself due to Time travel or History fuckery or something, but not her mom.
You know, Cadence’s Heart affinity should make her seeing Velvet’s Dance very… interesting. Especially combined with a Grail Influence, since she has that too.
ah, stay summoned permanently is befriending. The permanent part of the quote is important, and I was forgetting that, because the way it is arranged does imply the need for a specific process.
What? No, that's not how that works. It doubles the Edge bonus specifically, not the whole martial score. The only reason it effects base martial at all is because Edge does a a single +1 to base martial. On top of its bigger pluses to combat.
…Uh. Hey guys. Not that I really expect it to happen, unless Windy’s been doing shit or something, but it might not be the best idea to put Selene and Bureau constables on guard duty at the same time? Just, you know, in case there actually is a fight?
Personally I don’t remember that first bit, but fair enough. Honestly, I’m just trying to make sure y’all aren’t falling into the trap of wanting something, but it being so innocuous that you never stop to think if it’s actually going to give you what you want.
Is that her friendship process it progresses? Because from my understanding, befriending Names was stated to be having them stick around. A Level Five book achieves that.
I'll grant the Something Interesting might be progression to making that more permanent, but is this an assumption, or do...
…huh. I mean, okay, that’s a point, but I’m more caught up in the realization that getting an Influence from Marinette and then socialing her is gonna be really funny. Just on it’s own.
Aaaaand… we can’t use one of our Level Five books?
Do they have to?
Like, actual genuine question. Is that expedition completely necessary this turn? I haven’t been paying more than cursory attention, even if I’m making joke posts.
Also, on that one mass social plan with Incarnadescence, I just want to say that I am highly amused by the idea of so many people getting to experience the walking corpse of Velvet Covers. Especially with the Cannibal Name’s full Influence on her. :V
More seriously, a mostly dead pony still...
Only because Velvet was wounded due to another unforeseen event. A two health Velvet would still be on one right now, and relatively fine.
Seriously? Huh, I thought we had…
Oh wait. No, it was all Name support. I'm pretty sure they were still rolling at Level Two for summoning Baldomare...
Also, as another complete aside, but… I just find this really funny. Velvet, even when literally being the walking fucking dead and losing all her Edge Lore, was still swinging almost twice the combat bonus that Shining Armor had. I almost feel sorry for the pony that had to fight her.
Fair...
Honestly, I just want Copper dead and to look for the Outsider. That’s it. I am sick and tired of us not progressing win conditions, and this stupid fucking war. How those get done don’t matter much to me as long as they are done.
Also, a random thought I had, but it’s interesting that Copper’s...
