Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:17:41 PM)
whats up?
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:18:46 PM)
Minor pestering! Isabel is just going to be spending some time searching through the police report database. She's looking for anything that might indicate more instances of sudden narcolepsy - things like Primeval, or, say, an increase of drivers falling asleep at the wheel
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:20:42 PM)
Nothing yet with drivers falling asleep, but roll me an int+inv roll, diff6
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:21:30 PM)
Blah. 2 suxx
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:24:07 PM)
no drivers, but theres 3 cases which strike her as odd. Men reporting woman raping them. Taking a woman or prostitute home and then things going out of order. The police are currently dismissing all three
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:24:43 PM)
"out of order"? She'll note them, though.
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:25:55 PM)
as in, they intended to have sex either way initially until the woman lept upon them and things got more intense, far more intense than desired. The men almost sound scared of the woman in the reports
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:28:00 PM)
Yeah, gotcha - esp. after the succubus talk
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:28:31 PM)
anything else?
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:29:40 PM)
another thing - she wants to check Tulane and Loyola, see if they have any faculty that are folkloreists - ones that specialize in the city, or in voodoo
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:32:11 PM)
which tulane and loyola? there are hoards of businesses if you do a google search :)
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:32:21 PM)
the universities.
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:32:42 PM)
specific departments, too - history, religous studies
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:32:54 PM)
its a good way to start, sure :)
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:33:14 PM)
Yeah, figured some mundane research couldn't hurt. She doesn't have any occult library
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:34:48 PM)
are you wanting to do it scene wise? Would anyone else be coming with her?
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:35:29 PM)
Ooo... scenes
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:37:07 PM)
second question? >.>
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:37:35 PM)
Well... I don't see anybody one whom she might ask...
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:40:45 PM)
doesn't need to be on now, no one she'd bring with her? okay
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:42:03 PM)
Well, Is has significantly warmed up to the mages... she's also in a lot of ways a free agent. No tradition, no cabal
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:42:48 PM)
mmhmm, i heard someone talking about trying to get isabel to join their cabal the other day though
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:43:12 PM)
She has been invited, yes!
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:43:42 PM)
She's trying to patch things up between them and Craig/Kaydence...
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:44:28 PM)
because, well, she likes all of the parties involved, but I suspect if she joins the cabal, she's going to burn bridges with C & K
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:45:03 PM)
honestly? Craig and Kay are pushing people away from them right now. They're as responsible as anything
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:46:09 PM)
Agreed.
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:46:37 PM)
But Craig and Kay took her in when she was a total mess
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:46:41 PM)
one of the friendliest couples turning into a snarky group. I really don't know what caused it to be honest.
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:46:52 PM)
Neither do I. *sigh*
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:47:15 PM)
i heard they yelled at a group in primeval, whatever they did it must've been bad, upset a few players
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:47:20 PM)
They got all pissy in Primeval the other day, because somebody asked for some space so they could converse in peace
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:47:29 PM)
Yes. He was a total ass
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:47:54 PM)
did you notice i had primeval removed from the permanent room lists?
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:48:13 PM)
An d was like, "how dare you ask for privacy here! This is public space! Don't you know being mages I could just listen to you you are so stupid everybody is stupid except me"
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:48:30 PM)
No....
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:48:42 PM)
tbh, we have WAY MORE rooms than we need as permanent
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:49:25 PM)
after running that scene in there I had Mercy getting snippy at me for not informing me what was going on in there ... she hadn't logged in for two weeks, how was i to know she'd decide to remake her appearance that very day again. Basically ... I decided that the players were getting to caught up in it being "their rooms" and thought that them not being permanent might help some
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:49:46 PM)
but Prim is also a gathering place, which should be neutral...
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:50:00 PM)
we really need a gathering place that -isn't- somebody's home
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:50:02 PM)
it should be, but its been causing me a headache.
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:50:20 PM)
and yes, by the end of this storyline there will be at least one new chantry with a node.
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:50:30 PM)
whee!
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:50:40 PM)
Not that Iz needs a node, but still
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:50:56 PM)
trust me, i know thats an issue. Thats why I wrote the storyline the way I did.
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:51:00 PM)
I swear, the paranoia is so over-the-top with some of the PCs right now
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:51:11 PM)
which paranoia?
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:51:22 PM)
"No, we can't have a bulleitin board somewhere, the technos can get it!!!eventy!
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:52:01 PM)
In an online game, with schedules like ours - you do need some way of spreading news
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:52:05 PM)
well, in some ways thats good, in other ways, its silly. The techies are going to be a power hovering to pounce, but they really won't be the focus for a while now
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:53:02 PM)
it's like, the reality of the game - if we were tabletop, that level of paranoia is fine. but, again, in this particular setting, being able to post up something in the IC forum is -helpful-
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:54:46 PM)
indeed. they should set up something in the B&B
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:54:59 PM)
but they won't
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:55:09 PM)
because, again "omg technocrats might see it!"
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:55:14 PM)
I think it's ludicrous
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:55:38 PM)
then you might have to wait till the chantry is up.
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:55:46 PM)
though this storyline won't happen overnight
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:55:49 PM)
*sigh* Yeah
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:56:41 PM)
the dream situation is only just ... starting
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 4:57:00 PM)
:)
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 4:59:16 PM)
when would you like to see the professor?
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:00:00 PM)
Sure!
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 5:01:34 PM)
haha, is that a "now!"
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:01:44 PM)
Or later :)
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:02:29 PM)
Classes start tuesday, and first week of the semester tends to be crazypants
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 5:03:54 PM)
just a sec, wireless collection signal is low, have to go and wave the router around
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:06:23 PM)
Gotcha
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 5:09:56 PM)
eh, its still only good, it'll do for now
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 5:11:02 PM)
likely not to be any more people logging on for a bit anyways, website is being odd/slow/down
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:12:01 PM)
Weird
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 5:12:27 PM)
you know which district the college is?
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:13:08 PM)
lesee... Loyola is St CHarles...
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:14:27 PM)
Sooooo - not far from CBD, and Iz is District 8 - so that's in her precinct....
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:14:55 PM)
Tulane is also CBD
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:15:21 PM)
they're pretty close to each other
Tohunga (Jan 15, 2011 5:15:59 PM)
(This user has moved to Tulane professors office) (IP = 222.154.4.181)
Isabel Ross (Jan 15, 2011 5:16:02 PM)
I think she'll try Loyola first, one, she's an Alum, and two, jesuits should know something about demons!
