@Guardian Angel Haruki @Vertigo That being said, I will need a roll from both of you before I write the next post, though it's not Traverse the Wilderness. Roll me a 2d6 - Shadows Marked. Haruki, you can get a +1 to this roll thanks to Vertigo's help.

Before I post IC, I'd just like to make the Study Someone move on Garrock real quick. I rolled a 9 and would like to learn what Garrock wishes Skobeloff would do for him.

Garrock just wants some semblance of empathy at this point. He's tired, feels the group want rid of him and just wants to feel that someone in the group doesn't hate or want rid of him.

Probably makes sense for me to go again for the other group, will do it tonight when I get a chance to write again. Also err, failed a Survey the Area roll, rip. But so, just to check, does the 4 I rolled for the mystery roll count as a miss? Cause if so, that's 5 exp and an advancement at least, so I'll pick something tonight. If not, disregard this!

WYRMTONGUE: Return a Gem and ask the Darkness for something you need. The DM will tell you what it costs. If you pay the price, the Darkness will deliver it.

Question though, does the "something you need" and "deliver it" mean like... a physical thing, like an object, or also more abstract things?

Oh Epyllion.

And alright! Was mostly thinking in terms like... okay I don't actually have a good example thought up, but like if someone was all "I need help flying over there" would the Darkness grant temporary flight for a price? Or if someone went "I need them to leave me alone" would the Darkness hurt the drake being talked about to keep them away? Or "I need a friend" = bam the Darkness just turned someone into a friend via shadow corruption stuff!

These are not Fellwing examples, ha, just my tired 2AM brain ones.

<Snipped quote by Vertigo>
Hmm. Considering all those options could be accomplished veer the Shadow Magic move, I'm going to assume 'no'.

Out of curiosity, is it normal for Ancients to be difficult to track down after they have ascended?

So Kurkar being hard to find even by those closest to him is an odd occurrence then?
