I guess we're starting without Lucky.

You turn on your phone, and the light blinds for a moment. It is 9pm. Colder weather, longer nights.
[Wis:2] You think back to your studies, but instead, last day's dream comes to mind. [Int:2] The only thing you remember of it, however, is the heat of the furnace, the sound of papyrus, and the feeling that you weren't alone.
You also remember that you never payed for this room. The freedom of the night is inspiring.

You get out of bed and walk to the kitchen, flipping light switches along the way. As you make your brew, you think of when you last saw your friend. [Int:3] You remember she was off to volunteer at a soup kitchen, on the shadier side of town. She left the house smiling, but with a look of misery in her eye, as if she knew she wouldn't come back. As you stand there sipping your coffee, a police siren flies by.

The cause of his death is evident. His eyes are gone, his sockets blackened. Your book lies open in his arms. Your eyes are drawn to the page. It looks like the front of a newspaper:

The Judgement Times

Tomorrow

Catastrophe struck in your city last night, on the Nepente Line, one of the few train lines that pass through an urban area. A six-cabin train derailed in the city, and slid through the streets. Over 50 passengers were killed, along with 16 people outside the train, including Konnar Reel.

[spoiler]Each character has 7 "ability scores" that determine the results of their actions (See Table 1-1). All scores start at a base of 0, but the player may invest up to 13 points to improve them, with a maximum of 5 points to a score. If a score is left at 0, then...

OOC: Then what?!

Edit: waitlist please.

Because you are not a player, you may look at private spoilers. I believe Sarrak chose this path.

I go investigate the screams and smoke briefly, Mutter Zoinks, Attempt to regrow my fingers after one hour of solid meditation.

You slip out of the alleyway, and briskly walk to the scene of the crime. A pale woman stands there, shivering, cellphone in hand. An even paler man lays on the sidewalk, ominous and unmoving. [Per:0] You notice nothing else of importance.
As you light your pipe, you see a police car turn the corner. "Zoinks," you mutter, and quickly return home.
Because you have already spent a full turn investigating, the meditation will have to be done next turn. It also counts as Black Magic, meaning you get -2 dice on the roll. You may choose to do something else next turn if you wish.

Oh, whoops, forgot about this:

This is either great or very dangerous...

Look around, noting height of buildings and how I can leave this alley.

This Chronicle is about the Damnation of the world.
And that has to change.
Nothing is set in stone.

This gave me an idea that the end will have us use the powers of evil to fight the same evil along side other heros who have more conventual powers

I know this has little to do with the quote but my mind works weirdly.

Before I heal myself I read the book of secrets and study some black magic.

Maybe. Maybe not. Only time will tell.

The only clothes you have are the clothes on your back, but they look pretty convincing. As a scholar of the Occult, your only nutritional need is for Knowledge or coffee. The breakfast bar isn't open at 9:15 pm anyway. "Checking out?" asks the receptionist, but you just keep walking.
Across from the police station, brothers in blue are setting up caution tape. [Per:0] The growing crowd of onlookers blocks your view of the scene.

[Per:-2] You look around at the various buildings, but a settling fog obscures everything. You step out into the street in hopes of getting a better view, when the ground under you begins to vibrate. Earthquake? You turn around, but by the time you see it, it's almost to late. The train has come. {Dex:0} Your fragile body is crushed by the parade of twisting steel. The sound of tortured metal fills your ears, for deafness only affects the living. "Let's try that again, shall we? Another time, perhaps."

(Note:Last post I said that you "quickly returned home." That was a lie. You have no home.)
You open your libro Secretorum to Chapter 2, the chapter of Black Magic. [Int:1] vs [Wis:2] You study the page with gleaming eyes, as the newfound knowledge saps your sanity. (Your Black Magic penalty has dropped to -1, and your sanity is now at "Medium") You sit down in the alleyway, and begin the ritual.
Suddenly the air grows hotter, and when you open your eyes, you find yourself in alien surroundings: A small room with rough stone walls illuminated solely by firelight. Your wrists are in manacles. You hear a book slam shut, and time itself seems to freeze. "So, do you finally see the world with open eyes? This is not your time to be here. But when the train of life goes off the rails, and the smell of lightning fills the Halls, you will return. Until then, don't do this again." And with that, you are back in the alleyway. Strangely alert, you notice that your Mark has grown.

A fog descends on the city like a blanket, followed by the sound of a horrendous crash.

Sarrak has fallen.

try to get a better view by climbing some nearby stuff ((parkor))

That was fast

Bye Sarrak

[Sarrak]

I am torn between being sad (dat rolls...) and happy - after all, now I can look inside other spoilers!

Add to waitlist, please. New char would be coined out soon.

[Pavellius]

Bump. LuckyKobold's action result is now complete.
