    Just keep in mind you have to state when Blaze is going to make time for this. You could also still spend a WP for a few extra days to expedite the process.

    Is there anything competing for his time tho? Making the garden I guess but there’s still three full days for that.. helping make weapons and stuff perhaps?

    @TC: Nope, but in game time, the group seems to pretty much go from one mission to the next without anytime for stopping. The only reason there was a chance to make that roll was because I basically said "we are ending the scene here" and all the characters are going to take time to accomplish other tasks.

    This is not meant to be judgmental, as especially with PBP games, it gets easy to forget about things that happened earlier in the game, and to get focused on just moving on to the next thing. I simply wanted to point out that making the rolls in advance won't mean that Blaze accomplishes the task without making the time to actually perform the cleansing.

    @Daishain: Any chance you want to spend XP or update any of your aspirations? Also, in regards to what Bear could do... maybe investigate the Gang scene? Or do something towards your Aspirations.

    @All: So we are getting a little time warpy. I will post separate vingettes for each character's interim goals, as well as a larger group meeting which Ladorak started and Daishain joined. Please feel free to bring your character into the larger scene as well.

    Blaze will spend the extra time he has getting to know the computer spirit, in the evening anyway. By day he'll be preparing the garden for the Tanis root.

    How does one actually go about destroying a spirit like this? Do enough damage in either real world or hisil? What are it’s modes of escape and how can we stop it from running, or will it even run to preserve itself?

    Blaze has never taken down a spirit like this before, but he is very knowledgeable about spirits in general, and has learned much from his Auspice and Tribe. Please give me Int + Occult + specialty bonus + 2

    Lol, that was impressively bad luck.

    Blaze is certain that if they can force contact between the bane concoction and the plague spirit it will suffer grievous wounds, which can be enhanced by using a weapon. He also knows that if they fight the spirit in The Hisil it will be more powerful, but will be basically unable to escape them, where as it can more easily escape to the Hisil if they fight it In the Flesh.

    Lastly, Blaze has heard rumors of how hard it can be to kill a spirit, and sometimes a defeated spirit is able to come back after a long dormancy if it is not "killed to death".

    Is there anything else that needs doing except loading up the lavender? I guess we need to decide which locus to use, and how this whole thing is going to go down.

    Honestly I don't think that the pack has the resources to just buy that many lavender flowers on short notice, even if they're available. To cover a field? We're talking tens of thousands of blooms, each of which would cost a couple bucks if bought from a flower store.

    I'm sorry, but I must be a little lost as well then. Can someone describe the pack's unifying plan/strategy for me.

    And while Bear, Solomon and Kara go lavender hunting, what is Blaze doing? I guess someone from the search party, please give me an Int + Survival or maybe Wits + Occult?

    Sorry, my brain is a little fried after this week. Also, I managed to lose my wedding ring while walking the dog today... so not too happy about that. My wife is totally cool about it, but I'm pretty pissed.

    If there’s nothing else for Blaze to be doing, he’ll help prep weapons. We did the hunting ground rituals already so we get a nice bonus on chases.

    Not sure what else he could be doing tbh.

    @TC: So... I can't see this being something worth really rolling for (though if you have any ideas...), and I'm not honestly certain how to turn it into a "dramatic scene". Do you want to play it out either with some sort of interaction with one of the wolf blooded, or with the computer spirit, as a chance to flesh out some relationships???

    @All: I'm still holding off on responding. I assume everyone is busy with the holidays, and COVID and everything that comes with it, but please bop me on the head if I need to step in.

    What about that giant bird spirit hanging around the locus near our hideout, what was his name? Flaps With Pride or something?

    Blaze go could chat with him and let him know the big bad is coming, see if he'll help us out.

    King Sky Hunter? Sounds like an interesting idea...

    And wait, the others are going out in wolf form in broad daylight hunting for fields of lavender? I guess the roll says it all.

    As I understand it we're going to try and actually use the garden as the site of the fight, or should we be purchasing the flowers?

    There is no way in heck the pack has enough resources to purchase enough flowers for our purposes here. Unless there is some problem, we'll use the garden itself as our Battleground.

    We have spirit wards. I'm thinking that we can have the wolfbloods set up most of them while we lead the bugger into the trap, then close the perimeter behind it. If it works, it won't matter if it crosses over, it would be trapped in both planes.

    We'll probably need to enrage the thing, get it so mad that it isn't looking where its going.

    Not to delay things further, but since it looks like the pack is ready to move on, and because I have my brains about me, why doesn't Kara, Bear and Solomon give me Wits + Investigation rolls. Goal is 5 or more successes cumulative between the three characters.

    Along with the rolls, please let me know where the three is going after this?
