Upon futher reading, I also discovered that I get +10 for all stealth actions that I make. These things could've really helped.

Correction. The Bloody Edge just gives me the "Tearing" Weapon trait on all melee weapons I use, so I should've been rolling an extra damage dice all this time.

The game was fun! I got to stay for a decent while this time, and I've decided Rasosk is fun to play. :)
Getting up at 4/5AM is kinda tough, though.

Don't I know it?
School starts tomorrow/Monday and I do indeed have to wake up early every day.

You guys gained 300XP (everyone) from last session. And indeed, keeping track of what your character can do may help in these situations. I myself forgot that the Daemonette should have been forcing Willpower Tests on you guys during that fight.

Also, yes the former Soriratas is female.

Was it the same Daemonette both times, by the way?

Also, I'm still wondering what the cost for buying new AYE POWAHS is.

Nope, different Daemonettes.

Costs are 300XP for either a new power or upgrade. If you purchase a new power I'll make the Toughness test and roll a mutation if that fails.

Do you also have to roll Toughness for me if I get a new power, or no?

Only Navigators gain mutations from upgrading their powers, so no.

All right, so with the 200 from last time and my original 400, I have 900 to spend?

So, I think I'll buy Held In My Gaze, and hope I won't mutate horribly. I'll also buy Scholastic Lore (Astromancy) (for 100, as you said before) as well as Gambling and Disguise (400 together), even if those might serve no other purpose than characterisation, if it's okay with you.

Also, since I think I forgot to chose characteristics-advancing-costs earlier, I'll go with Perception and Willpower as my first two cheap ones. I'm not sure about the last one though, is there any other attribute that is important for a Navigator?
Oh, and yeah, I'm not deciding on the other attributes until I have my last cheap one down ;)

Lastly, to the rest of you guys - don't worry, I'm not taking Held In My Gaze to mess with you. When re-reading the books I realised I misunderstood it earlier, it doesn't hold people in place at all - but it does make it harder for psykers and demons to use their powers. Daemons take extra damage from Warp Instability as well. I doubt we'll be running into more daemons in the next session, but it'll undoubtedly come in handy in the future.

Roll of 21, no mutation.

And indeed you get 200 + 300 + Unspent Starting XP, so 900XP to spend.
I'll let you purchase the Held In My Gaze power (300), Scholastic Lore (Astromancy) (100), and Gambling (200). Disguise I'm not too sure on, though I suppose as a Cold Guild Courier you might have had some training with it in your past, so I suppose I'll allow it (200). Total cost is 800XP.

Did I gain any EXP for the amount of time I was there?

I gave everybody (even those who didn't show up) 300XP for the last session.

Does that include us who played Pseudo-NPCs?

Alright, awesome.
Damnit, 100 short of a Psy Rating boost.
