Cool then I'll go with that justification if it ever comes up.


That was talking about the dice roll, not the edit.

Soul mismatch is the bigger issue since that's where circuits mainly are, and you can't eat those.

You realize that you want to open a loophole that'll allow Rasputin to be easily affected by external sources of magic energy, right?

After, of his body can't fight off foreign circuits, why would it fight off someone's mystic eyes?

Also, Seyrun's familiars don't have circuits inside of them, just some mana to let them move.

The question isn't so much if he can fight off foreign circuits as much as it's if he can force those circuits to work within his body via loopholes. But sure if that isn't gonna work I guess I can just roll in with no plan and let Dracula kill everyone becuase yeah, that's tons of fun.

Also no external rollers since I know you'll just fudge it on the off chance it does work since you're already so against this.

If anything, I think this shows how fair and unbiased Une is in his mediation. He loves all of us equally, which is to say not at all.

I mean, they're both the issue, but yeah.

I'm pretty offended that you think I'd just fudge a dice roll. I'm only against it because it's probabilistically against canon, so if you're that lucky then it's not against canon. In the first place, I'm not such a horrible GM that I'd do something like that, even if that wasn't the case.

If you think I'd do that, I don't really see why you're participating in something I'm running.

On another note,

@Unoedipal

So since we all know some serious shit is about to go down, exactly what is our threshhold for Church involvement like in F/Z? Will a certain amount of collateral damage from any one Master earn the Church's ire or does it literally need to escalate to "Cthulhu is attacking the harbor" before anyone does anything about it?

Because I distinctly recall giant frikkin' lasers and a couple of nuke-level explosions (or at least a MOAB) being deployed in the Fifth Grail War and the people of Fuyuki didn't really seem to notice or give a shit. Only reason I'm asking is because I'm pretty sure no one wants the Knight Captain or that DAA on their asses because of this (and let's not kid ourselves, we all know this brawl is gonna be collateral damage-tastic).

I mean, if Nasuverse worked in numbers then that'd be great, but it doesn't so yeah.

If systems with freeform aspects frustrate you then I've got to wonder why you're here and not playing tabletop or something.

The Knight-Captain severely outranks the Overseer, since he's just an Executor, so she'll only do stuff if she thinks she should, which is Lax's choice.

As for the Overseer, he'll put out CS rewards for killing someone if he feels they're a threat to the war itself; otherwise, he probably won't do much.

The DAA will probably just punch you if she thinks you look fun to punch. I can't speak for Est on that.

Yeah but what qualifies as a threat to the war? Does it explicitly have to be something that risks revealing the existence of magic (like the aforementioned Cthulhu) or will massive collateral damage merely be enough?

Cuz uh, there's no way nobody saw Saber and Rider fighting. Or Iskander and Gilgamesh. Or Gilgamesh and Lancelot. Really, any fight that didn't take place in the forest, the docks or the school/park should've been conspicuous as fuck even at night. And there's no way people are going to just ignore our batch of clearly magical supermen duking it out at the river, so a threshhold should be established.

The Knight-Captain probably won't interfere in the war more or less. She'll be too busy watching the DAA to make sure she doesn't start stuff and working at a maid cafe because she needs money.

Basically, just don't intentionally go on a rampage or something like Zero Caster and she won't have to kill you.

No worries, we are just planning a typical terrorist heist that by no means need to be related to magic. The church will be able to easily cover it as terrorism or a failure in safety procedures that escalated into mini-Doomsday. ie: We're gonna most likely blow the docks to try to kill every magus nearby, not thing that clearly reveals involvement with magic.

Also, @Unoedipal, if Seyrun loses her stuff, can she ask the Overseer to demand that the Second Owner (in the place of the Einzbern, since she's manning the ritual alone) pays back her loses? 'cause that was one opf the roles of the Church, to repay the non-involved parties and Seyrun isn't related to the war directly, so she would be eligible to have her loss repaired. Is it right?

Another thing, up be mostly unable to post for likely 24 hours or so. Please may I ask that Seyrun doesn't get killed because I'm stuck IRL?

Either suffices.

The Church can cover up most stuff, but it'll be harder since you guys don't seem to have much in the way of avoiding detection.

Oh yeah, it's accurate, but uh, good luck convincing her you're uninvolved.

Just out of curiosity, @Moonman and @vFear, how exactly were you planning on buying things without money?

Neither of our characters have enough money to afford clothes. I was just wondering about the justification for being able to buy so much.

Japanese recycle shops (essentially thrift stores) offer clothes for remarkably low prices.

So assuming one exists in Fuyuki, I'd reckon it wouldn't be too hard to scrounge together the needed change from around and about. We're basically dirty hobos at this point anyway, may as well act the part.

Skills: Some athletic skills, and an amazing sense for drawing. Dances and sings pretty well. Horrible at cooking, almost to the point of witchcraft, even if she follows the recipe to the letter. Odd considering she learns things fast.


Damn. Food in Saber's time must really suck if she enjoys food prepared by Kurokiri. ;w;

Also, I feel like a dumb now. Saber can readily come and go out of Fuyuki, I just remembered now that she has Independent Action, Sri of Lancer fights her w/o the Grail's support, he's the one to get screwed, not her.

Hyuuga should consider Rasputin's obvious trap well, though.

@Scrapula
While it's fine if you play NPCs that don't matter, for instance the waiter at the cafe you went to for some coffee, if the NPC is doing something important like in your most recent post, it would be for the best if I played it.
Exceptions are for when they're semi-important but suggestion is being used on them, but even in such cases I would prefer to play them, as it prevents things from getting out of hand too expediently.

So, I'll have to ask that you edit your post accordingly; once you've done so, I'll post a response. Apologies for the inconvenience~
