Re: Soragakure OOC III - Why Do We Have 3 Of These?
Depends on your contract, really. Apparently you can have multiple blood pacts (at least in this game, as ZN clearly rules, as long as there;s story reason for it), but you only need one. I haven't wrapped my mind around it fully myself how the Summon mechanics work but I'll read up on it if I ever acquire the technique. Each of the major summons seem to have their own cool unique virtue though, so that's cool. What do you think bets embodies Momo? Apparently Rats correspond to cunning directly if I remember right

There, I gave an IC explanation for Amon wanting to continue this mission. It involved showing yet more ugliness in her soul however. And it's entirely contingent on Yousuke's decisions, I'm afraid.
Thankfully the Garou showed up again. I guess. If things were left as they were, everyone sitting around analysing their motivations, the group would find no cause to work together and just all go back to how they were

Oh, so that's why Yousuke is leader. He has the least emotional baggage by far, has somehow become the most even tempered despite his anger issues (seriously, what?), is mostly reasonable under duress and is the only one not looking to attack people over minor grievances he has with them. And as it becomes increasingly apparent, is the least suicidal.
I had not conceived Yousuke having any of these traits when I wrote him up but I guess with missions having gone the way they went and his team's insecurities catching up with them he's had to develop all of these out of necessity.
But when Yousuke is the teammate in the best mood, something had gone terribly wrong.

Yeah, not everyone can have an elegant and refined soul like Yousuke.

And Amon would agree wholeheartedly.
Such matters you describe are almost entirley social; people have a wide range of expression, we're not cartoon characters; we adapt to how everyone else in the group is. Amon has been VERY badly affected by Kaede's departure because too many things of it just compound with her previous trauma so Yousuke's stepped up to the plate. Whereas Yousuke is generally more quiet so Amon is loud to make up for the deficit. I'm sure within the nextmisison or two, they'l find their comfort zone
edit: Edited my IC post to reflect the fact that the cat, at least, SEEMS to be alive unless Amon hugs it WAY too tight, Of Mice and Men style.
Anyway, since Amon apparently was out of earshot when Mako noticed the Garou, can Yousuke or Mako fill her in a bit, otherwise she'll sit there staring at everyone for the rest of the evening since she's in no mood to 'draw blood from stone', as they say

Remember, Yousuke rushes headlong into combat situations. That's not suicidal, that's just reckless and ill advised. Amon on the other hand has been harboring thoughts of killing Sanagi Bea, the Thunder God and during the first mission believed that the team she had met only a day prior was capable of assaulting a missing-nin that had given their special jounin some trouble.
Re: Soragakure OOC III - Why Do We Have 3 Of These?
Fighting Suzunabu was more an OOC decision it pains me to admit. Though I still say we could hav etaken her - I had Mind Transfer the whole time, after all.
Amon hasn't acted on such thoughts of murder though. She chastised herself for as much, but a big part of that reason is BECAUSE she knows she'll die if she goes for a head on assault. For all her self-hatee she at least knows her life could be better spent than to die in one round.
Killing Sanagi is incidental though; she just wants to hurt her somehow, to make her remember the day she struck down Kaede then thought she could walk away like it meant nothing. A feeling that's a carry over from her previous encounter with such things; she's got a lot of bottled up darkness. because seeking revenge in that case was impossible, the group could only turn its aggression over that day onto itself, ripping them apart. Perhaps Amon will realise that pattern before she does something very stupid

Anyway, enough if analysing Amon's angst. Since Yousuke is now out fearless leader, why don't you have him fill Amon in on the situation and give his orders of how to proceed?

Can i use Plan as we approach out targets? As in, can I plan as we move snce it would largely involve just talking, without necessarily slowing us down
Using Mind Transfer to investigate the prisoner would be Amon's preferred method. Bad, thoughts on Mako's plan?
Did we ever get a physical description of Ueki Tsume?

@Ueki: No. There wasn't one in the scroll, and everyone was too busy wangsting/being thick to ask at the village. Who knows; You might have already killed her.
@Plan: Sure, why not. Jun will even aid another on it.
Re: Soragakure OOC III - Why Do We Have 3 Of These?
AHAHAHA! Wow, a +1 to stuff for 3 rounds. That's bloody great. Plan is such a piece of crap. Or, it shouldn't be, but I have just NO luck with it at ALL.
Anyway, let's wrap this up really quick. I question the decision to split up, quite frankly. It will make the game slower and more technical and can only accomplish so much that staying together couldn't

Re: Soragakure OOC III - Why Do We Have 3 Of These?
I don't really care and your 'slowing down the game' justification doesn't hold much weight given our frequent posting. Handled well, splitting up is very beneficial from both a gameplay and strategically standpoint and I trust ZN can handle it. Anyway, Yousuke is all for splitting up though because he's pretty tired of having to deal with both Amon and Houshi.
