Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
I also don't have a dot in Presence... xD Just one die for me xD

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
Good choice. This would have gone south quite thoroughly if Mateusz had botched that roll.

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
I forgot to include a reaction to the door opening and (most of) the rest of the party being on the far side. Gonna edit that into the IC post.

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
Anything else we want to do at the party, or should we thank them and leave to regroup?

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
Julians Plan is :hang out a bit, meet some people and leave not in the first group but definitely also not in the last group. Afterwards he would try to align the names to the goat men and give a decent sketch of the parts of the building he was in.
Since we might have to walk through that door again.

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
As an individual Julian would like to:
Increase his Legend Rating from 2 to 3 -16 XP
Increase his Epic Cha from 1 to 2 -4 XP
In the process learn the Knack Charmer by watching a Satyr use it to disarm a drunken misunderstanding.
XP Spent: 20
XP Total: 25
As a group I think DeTess is right:
A meeting to discuss and plan is in order.

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
Quick question, I can't find the costs for increasing birthrights. Is that simply not possible?
Edit: and can I say Liliana saw enough from how brand projected his presence to pick up that skill as well?Last edited by DeTess; 2024-04-10 at 12:55 AM.

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
Sure, after hearing multiple people express interest in improving their social skills, Brand sets up an impromptu drama class, running the group through... what play would he pick for this... a few scenes from "Twelfth Night". Focus of the lesson is on understanding what your partner is trying to do so you can play off them (Empathy), amplifying your own emotional display for the audience (Presence), and [if someone else wants to learn a different skill that Brand has, let me know and I'll try to come up with a way to work it in].
Brand is going to save his own XP for Legend 4. A lot of things on my wishlist are gated behind that, and it'll also give an immediate benefit to Brawl thanks to my Ability Geas.Last edited by PoeticallyPsyco; 2024-04-10 at 02:26 PM.

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
Yes, that's all approved.
And indeed, there's no way to increase Birthrights with points. They normally increase over the course of play in various ways: non-supernatural followers accrue as your profile in the World increases, some relics are captured (nearly every titanspawn and titan has a trophy relic of some sort), and gods give you more powerful creatures, guides, followers, and relics as you become more powerful, and thus more useful to them.
For one example of a way to increase Birthrights, Elena indicated she could readily give Mateusz a relic that will let him channel the Star Purview.Orth Plays: Currently Baldur's Gate II

Liliana is pretty sure she has the most recent maps of the tenements of Vine City and knows where Mog is most likely to be.

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
A mechanical question - if Im buying Epic Attributes and I have custom Virtues (compared with default ones for my Pantheon), do I pay +1 EXP? Or only for "superpowers" (Sky, Moon etc.) but not Super Attributes (Appearance etc.)?
EDIT: Okay, I updated my CS. I hope I could use the Training Knack to get Empathy 2 for 2 EXP? (That was kinda my assumption here...)? ;-)
EDIT 2: Hm... Maybe I shall spend 1 EXP for learning basic Medicine...? What do you think?
EDIT 3: A separate list of my Boons and Knacks, cause the space is slowly getting limited... :-P

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
+1 XP cost is only for Boons, not Epic Attributes or Knacks.
If Brand teaches you Empathy, it would cost 1 point for the first rank (half of 3 round down), then 1 point for the second rank (half of 2, no rounding), and 2 points for the third rank (half of 4, no rounding).
Julian, make an Intelligence+Investigation roll. -2 dice if you don't have the Investigation skill.Last edited by Kish; 2024-04-12 at 07:50 PM.

Re: Scion: Hero (OOC)
Hm... something seems to be wrong with my calculations xD
When the EXP cost is written like "rating x2" it means current rating or future rating???
God, I think my calculations are mesed up? :-( I mean, I had before 1 rank in EMpathy and I calculated the cost of 2nd rank as 2 (I think???), including the Teaching Knack?
Eh, I have everything wrong? :-( HAAAAAALP :-(
EDIT: Okay, my solution is this - I am 1 EXP "in the back" because I miscalculated, so I do not change the EXP in my CS, but I put the 1 "lost" EXP in basic Medicine, okay?Last edited by Kaworu; 2024-04-13 at 07:39 AM.
