A Faerie Affair - OOC IV: Petal to the Metal

[Archmage1]

Alas, the IC thread had her following Astra, so she's following Astra.

[WindStruck]

Kyu and Astra are right next door to one another, so don't be shy!

All I have to do is visit a bit and get Violet hooked on the big giant mirror and bed!

Spoiler: about the flower

Show

[Archmage1]

Noooo! It still wanted to see the rain, and Violet was being careful, and making sure it was as ok as possible!

[Ninja_Prawn]

I can't wait to see how happy Violet is when she gets to level 13 and gains access to resurrection...

[Archmage1]

She might need to pick up fabricate, and jeweler's tools too, so she can make diamonds.

Kor gets Reincarnate at 9th. I wonder how it would work on Fey creatures? Also noticed it says "the spell forms a new adult body for it", so I guess that means a Reincarnated kid would also become an adult. Might not be the strangest thing to get used to

I'll write up a new table for human-shaped fey for use with reincarnate. It won't work on plants, though.

[Archmage1]

Would Violet be able to use plant growth to help the flower?

[Ninja_Prawn]

Nah, I reckon that only works on plants that are, how do you say it... Alive.

[Archmage1]

Aw... but she tried so hard to keep the flower alive, so it could see all the interesting things!

[Archmage1]

Before I respond...
Is the flower dead-dead? Or mostly dead? Or dying?

[Ninja_Prawn]

Well, it's always been dying. Plants just take a lot longer to fade out after the killing blow than animals do. Let's say it's on its very last legs, and will almost certainly die for good tonight.

[Archmage1]

In that case... would you allow a major image to turn Aster or Kyu's room into a rainy forest wonderland?

[Ninja_Prawn]

Yes, I'd allow that. You might want to get their permission first, obviously.

[Archmage1]

That sounds like a planning thing. Surprises are good? Everyone loves surprises!

[WindStruck]

Well I guess as long as it's an illusion and none of the scrolls and books get ruined, it'll be ok...

[Pyon]

Kyu wouldn't mind yeah as long as she doesn't suddenly get wet just before bed.

[Archmage1]

Surprise!

Hopefully, that came across well? I hope?

(Also, Violet doesn't actually have hair, so no brushing the petal.)

[WindStruck]

Huh, where to begin. Let's start with a roll to see if Astra believes it is an illusion or not....

(1d20+2)[19]

[Archmage1]

Technically you don't get a roll until you try investigating it. Or physically interact with it(Like, say, trying to touch the tree, or a flower.)

But you make it!

Edit: I'm also an idiot, and this represents an excellently poor post. I will endevour to do better in the future.

[Ninja_Prawn]

I think, if the illusion involves rain, it'd trigger the 'physical interaction' clause straight away. And you've seen Violet do magic before, so I figure Astra and Kyu would realise what's going on pretty quickly.

Once you know it's an illusion, you can still see it, but it becomes translucent.

[WindStruck]

I mean, I'd just think that it's obvious something overtly magical happened, and either Violet turned the whole place into a forest, somehow teleported us to another place without any sort of feeling.. or it's an illusion.

Plus, something of this scale materializing right in front of us should also be pretty blatant and suspect...

[Archmage1]

It's Violet? When has she done things that weren't blatantly suspicious?

It is a really pretty forest grove, though.

[Archmage1]

If there are any questions, concerns, or details you'd like about the illusion(Which, as you can probably guess, is of Violet's garden)

[Archmage1]

Hopefully, I'm not skipping too much?

[WindStruck]

Well sorry, I guess Astra isn't all that interested in conversing with flowers (nor has she the capability right now) but she's still happy to watch the show for a while.

[Archmage1]

No worries? Violet's a bit... nutty. But hopefully, this didn't cost too much time, or detract from your enjoyment of the game?

[Archmage1]

Other overnight things? Stay up to keep the flower company?

Also, yes, since no one else is really interested in Violet's efforts, I'll seek to keep them off to the side from now on.

[Archmage1]

Staying up overnight to try to keep the lost flower comfortable and happy? And I don't do a similar scene in the future, because no one else is interested?

[Ninja_Prawn]

It's fine. I think it's been good to establish Violet's character, etc. Anyway if y'all are done with this scene, we'll move on now. Or, well... tomorrow.
