This one didn't want to be who they was. On the Surface – it was a dull, unconsidered sadness. But everything changed. Which implied everything could change.

Poor dwarfette-pire she was probably just some random cheesemaker that migrated to the fortress, somehow missed by the overseer during the migration wave.  Maybe she came in behind an animal making the overseer think that was the end of the migration wave.  Because of that she never got assigned a useful job, and spent her entire life doing nothing but simple hauling, never getting a chance to have her name noted.  She spent so long being forgotten that even she forgot her name.

The GiitP board has named her "Sandy". I'm OK with that.


I guess Durkon rolled a 1 on his Spot check there when looking at the situation. He ignored his minions warning about Hilgya(that's gonna cost him), and now he's doing what got him killed in the first place: splitting the party.

Also interesting is how the Exarch is able to protest Durkon's orders. If he were a spawned slave, he'd obey without question.

If Evil people took a few classes in Narrative Structure they'd be a lot more unstoppable.

But they need a very careful dose of them, because otherwise they end up on the Tarquin end of the spectrum and become stoppable again.

Narrative obliviousness is just how the universe balance Good and Evil.

Tarquin lied in the uncanny valley of the Narrative Structure Knowledge spectrum.  The place where you have great knowledge of the Narrative Structure, but not the wisdom to realize that "the exception proves the rule and mucks over the plan" and you therefore need backups at the critical times of the plans where that is likeliest to occur.

In other words, the narrative structure knowledge equivalent of what Miko was to Good.

The one who has the evil gal inside herself?

I forget where these vampires came from, actually. Is she a priestess from that godsmoot thing?

I believe they were that neutral clan of earth somebodies who were stewarding the godsmoot. Durkula killed them all and made them vampires because technically they had no god and therefore were expempt from the divine retribution clause

Gonna need a poncho... Hmm. Intriguing. But highly disturbing.

Assuming she wasn't created locally, they're from a neutral(probably Neutral as well) cult that worships stone. They were the ones maintaining the neutral(probably Neutral as well) ground for the Godsmoot to take place. The cult's Exarch is Durkon's #2.
