It was nice knowing you, 2023. I only hope the year that comes after you is just as nice to know.
'Snouthold' is great. That is it's canonical name now, thank you Rush.
No problem.
But what exactly is Skobeloff trying to sieze a position on right now? I'm a little confused.
Skobeloff seized a position that gave him a good view of Yves, granting him +1 ongoing to roles that would help with. Such rolls might include surveying an area on the island's surface. (Having already seen it from afar, Skobeloff would have a few ideas on where to start looking.) or traversing the wilderness of Yves. (A bird's eye view of the island's wild places could have revealed a path or two.)
In the time between the conversation about the unicorn and the group's arrival at the Semscale stronghold, they had passed another group in the air. The other group was a class for raw-scaled drakes fresh from the Hatchery to learn how to navigate the wind paths. In a moment of mischief, Skobeloff broke away from his group to catch the updraft that was part of the final test. It sent the Trickster high into the air. High enough that, for a brief and beautiful moment, Skobeloff saw the dragon that Yves looked like when viewed from above. He hung in the air for as long as he could, committing every detail of the sight to memory to the best of his ability. But Skobeloff could only resist the pull of gravity for so long. Eventually, what went up had to come down. And so Skobeloff glided back down, rejoining his group and leaving the now awestruck gliding class in his wake.
Unfortunately for the little Trickster, Skobeloff had underestimated how strenuous that stunt would be on his wings. As a result, he was pretty puffed out when they stopped at the Snouthold.
"I could do with a quick rest." Skobeloff spoke up when Fogdance asked if anyone wanted to stop and the drakes outside his clutch had all finished giving their answers. "After that little detour I took, I'm a bit more out of breath than I would have been otherwise."
With a roll of 6, Skobeloff is exhausted from the flight. Skobeloff uses this failure to fuel a round of the long game. He rolls a 7 and opts to seize a position.
(a total lunar eclipse where all moons are blocked from the sun CAN happen, and it is considered a very bad thing)
I got my hands on the rulebooks a few days ago and just I've reached the part that talks about this. The chapter in question also mentions an interesting unique move. One you decided not to copy over to the list of unique moves on the first page of the OOC tab. Did you not want us using this move or did you simply forget to add it to the list?
