This looks intresting can I join?
-snip-
You can definitely join but for now you will be waitlisted as I and the other players are probably still getting used to how this works.
Your possession with function slightly differently, as he is technically in the knife. This is good and bad. You will have a powerful artifact weapon that holds a large portion of Wrath's essence. Possession will increase at half speed, and the bonuses you get will be smaller, but the chance of losing your head or having moves altered is also substantially less.

Glass/Jack: (1 on map)
Location: Men'Sann Fief jail
Health: 7/7
Possession:
5/100 Winter
7/100 Summer


You stand there, waiting patiently. You hear shouting, some cursing, and a man whom you do not know runs down the stairs and takes the keys from the jailer, unlocking your door while you greet him pleasantly. As soon as the door is unlocked, five demon hunters run down the stairs and shout, "Hey, you! Stop!"
The man who unlocked your door responds with some very choice words. Oh, this one will be fun. He has the look of power about him.

((As both Summer and Winter are extremely powerful entities, failure entails a double possession increase)
(6 vs 3)
Summer uses you as a focus for his power, and a warm radiance fills the cramped corridor. The Demon Hunters stop running and look at each other, confused. One of them says, "Uh, sorry to bother you. Let us escort you out." A pathetic move, really. Come on Jack, you should know better than to listen to HIM. Embrace me, and I will grant you unlimited power! In fact, there is an item I would like you to retrieve. If you do so, this item will grant you immortality! ((Quest location marked by blue circle))
Or, alternatively, you could retrieve an item for me, and I will make you a king of this world! ((Quest location marked by a white circle))

You feel Summer's pull increase.

Smoke Mirrors/Raven: (2 on map)
Location: Above Menn'Sann Fief jail
Health: 6/6
Possession:
10/100 Lucifer, Knowledge and Thought


(5)
This is what you have studied for so long. You know, intuitively, how to channel this demon's powers. You concentrate Lucifer's powers, using your mind as a gateway and a structure for it. People assume you are one of importance, and will not stop you. You tell Lucifer, "I'm going to need some help to reach The Cave, find me a powerful possessed (Glass) and then we can get going" Oh, is that all you need?
 That's simple enough. The man in the jail cell downstairs, named Jack, happens to be possessed by a friend of mine and his *ugh* sunshiny sibling.

You walk back downstairs. The confused and stunned Demon Hunters don't react to you walking by. (13+1=14 vs 15) They do, however, seem to realize you are not supposed to be unlocking a possessed prisoner. You see a wave of power leave Jack, which then causes the poor confused guards to become even more confused, and they offer to escort the two of you out. Yes, he will be quite useful...
What? Did I say something? I didn't say anything.


crazyabe/Jacque: (3 on map)
Location: Ancient Outlands Castle ruins
Health: 6/6
Possession:
10/100 Montherus, Forbidden Knowledge


(1)
You decide you should head NorthEast, walking straight for the first time that you can remember. The book is still in your hands, but now functions like a normal book. You can see symbols, but they swim frustratingly in and out of your view. like i said, only i can read it. you must gain favor with me before i will allow you to SEE.
You got tied up in trying to decode the book, that you forgot to go farther than a hundred yards from the castle.

OceanSoul/Jay: (4 on map)
Location: Just outside a Garrowsson territory farm
Health: 7/7
Possession:
10/100 Velur@s, Ferality ((Adds 1 health per 10 points of possession as well as +1 to unarmed attacks in combat or other suitably violent moves))


(1)
You decide that you should head deeper into the Sanni territories. After all, right now you aren't even really in Sanni land proper.
Belle squeaks from on top of your head and you take her down to pet her. You become so distracted with petting, that you forget to go anywhere from your hiding place in the bushes not far from your house.

Huh? Uh, Hearts and Diamonds say we're fine.

Go on an adventure to the Outlands! Because why not!

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

You know the demon of wrath is Satan.
Really I though he was a fallen angel

Lucifer is the fallen angel, and he's the demon of pride. Except here, y'know, where he's kinda the snake from the Garden of Eden because reasons.

I'm so glad my moments of ranting about demonology rubbed off on you Glass.

Don't worry too much about the one mistake, Smoke Mirrors. Your character was memorable for all the demonology and story writing.

I’m running a game/mechanics test called Fate/Mechanics Test. Feel free to check it out.

Try going to the Sanni territories again this time.

Work on a potential forum game for my return to Bay12. Figure out parts that puzzled me before. Find more things to figure out that I can't. Work on another game instead of solving them. Get distracted and stop working. Remember it a week or two later. Remember I'm still on hiatus. Illogically, Be too ashamed to return yet. Repeat ad nauseam.

Finally have a game completely ready. Wait a week before posting it out of laziness.

Just to make things clearer for future reference, Spades (i.e. the main person) is a grave robber and general troublemaker, Hearts is a conman and the most "social" of the voices, Diamonds is a thief with a fascination with treasure and adventure (though he enjoys free will...), and Clubs is a vandal and mugger who is exceedingly obnoxious and is ignored by the other three. This is why Jack only referred to Hearts and Diamonds when responding to the offer.

And Satan was a pagan god of fertility till the bible came around and literally demonized him. Demonology is really interesting.

And, while I'm not certain that this is completely true but I heard it from a reputable source, witches were considered evil because they worshipped Satan back when he was a fertility god and when he became a demon, they were considered followers of the devil.

Well witch back then was considered to mean consort of the devil which fit with his fertility god status before being demonized
