(08:41:42 PM) dkap: Hrm ... quiet here.
(08:46:06 PM) Kintani [~Kintani@c-75-67-240-124.hsd1.nh.comcast.net] entered the room.
(08:46:24 PM) Kintani: And then there were two....
(08:46:44 PM) dkap: One little, two little, three little gamer-geeks.
(08:46:46 PM) dkap: *grin*
(08:47:45 PM) dkap: Got a post-card from Mr. Kern. It was all bright and chipper, from Turkey. I'm trying to break the (obvious) embedded cypher.
(08:48:03 PM) Shaitanna [~Shaitanna@c-75-67-240-124.hsd1.nh.comcast.net] entered the room.
(08:48:22 PM) dkap: And then there were three.
(08:48:23 PM) Shaitanna is now known as Bebhinn
(08:48:34 PM) Kintani is now known as Ammon
(08:48:51 PM) dkap: That might give us enough to at least catch Ammon and Bebhinn up ...
(08:48:53 PM) dkap: *grin*
(08:49:30 PM) Ammon: Well, having Ammon and Bebhinn being in place does indeed provide that opportunity
(08:50:08 PM) dkap: It does. *grin*
(08:50:28 PM) dkap: Right ... where did I leave you too off? Were you reunited with Mr. Eagleton yet?
(08:50:42 PM) Ammon: <@dkap> They are empty now.<Ammon> Go through the gate<@dkap> You are in a well-appointed, Mr. Eagleton lab.<@dkap> And I think I will hang the game here.*** Maureen has quit IRC: Quit: used jmIrc<@dkap> Any final actions?<@dkap> Ahh ... one final impression, the bald-headed individual, who was placing the handprints, seemed to be smiling at you, as you went through the jump-gate.*** dkap has quit IRC: Quit: Swiftly and silently v
(08:51:11 PM) dkap: Right. Then you were. Good good.
(08:51:20 PM) dkap: You are in Mr. Eagleton's lab.
(08:51:25 PM) dkap: He seems to be somewhat of a mess.
(08:51:38 PM) Ammon: Who's there?
(08:52:14 PM) Ammon: Eagleton is usually a mess, unless it's dinnertime.
(08:52:26 PM) dkap: Well ... a few lab assistants ...
(08:52:43 PM) Bebhinn: live asisstants or mechanisms?
(08:52:49 PM) dkap: Live ones.
(08:53:14 PM) dkap: Orpheus is running heard on them. And for some reason Orpheus is a bit ... selfish about other mechanical gizmos.
(08:53:43 PM) Ammon: We all know Orpheus is actually in charge. Eagleton is his Familiar
(08:54:19 PM) dkap: They are not your ... standard people, but they keep shifting into an igor-like shape (hunch-back, poached eye, dragging leg) whenever they realize Eagleton is looking at them.
(08:54:33 PM) Ammon: Hehehehehe
(08:55:04 PM) Ammon: To the room, "Does anyone know how to arrange a meeting with the big Wyrm at the center of 'Reality'?
(08:55:51 PM) dkap: Besides Eagleton's mutterings, the room goes entirely silent.
(08:56:02 PM) dkap: As if they are all cringing, waiting for the hammer to fall.
(08:56:22 PM) Ammon: "was it Wyrm here? Hmmm... Snake? Serpent? I can't remember which term they used."
(08:56:32 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton: "Whatwhat? Oh, Bebhinn, did you come for more drink?"
(08:56:55 PM) Bebhinn: i can always use whiskey
(08:57:19 PM) Bebhinn: but ammon's got some questions
(08:57:38 PM) Ammon: Mutters, "Hmmm... I guess I need one of the scarier residents of this place..."
(08:57:39 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton: "There's a cabinet-thingy over there. It's got some more potables in it. And potatoes, I think."
(08:58:13 PM) Bebhinn: doc--ammon's trying to ask ya something--pay some attention ok
(08:58:15 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton: "At least, they look like potatoes, but they keep drinking the beer ..."
(08:58:16 PM) Bebhinn: ?
(08:58:24 PM) Cagliostro: (oh hey, people! Mike dropped by briefly, he has rehearsal now)
(08:58:45 PM) dkap: Sam: So does Delna.
(08:59:06 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton: "Right. Ammon, what was your question?"
(08:59:29 PM) Ammon: "Do you know how to get a meeting with the big Wyrm under Chaos?"
(08:59:56 PM) Ammon: "At least, I think they said it was under Chaos. Wasn't sure if they were being literal or not."
(09:00:37 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton: "Umm ... no? There's a worm? I've been told I _really_ don't want to meet the local weaver-analogue, though."
(09:00:40 PM) Ammon: "It was a lot of info to take in in one meeting, and they all fled before I could ask questions."
(09:01:17 PM) Bebhinn: b goes searching for alchol since it looks like it is going to be one of those conversations
(09:01:25 PM) Ammon: "Any idea where Bebhinn's family has run off to?"
(09:02:08 PM) Ammon: "I can't imaging you'd have any problems with any 'analog' of the Weaver."
(09:02:21 PM) Ammon: imagine, even
(09:03:03 PM) Ammon: "You can borrow the Web Ball, if you want to try to call him."
(09:03:16 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton shrugs: "It's just what I've been told. Apparently everything is bigger, badder, and in less conflict out here. The three main poles seem to get along out this ways."
(09:03:55 PM) Ammon: "I guess the Three are so big out here that they finally all play nice together?"
(09:04:46 PM) Ammon: "Most of the mess we saw before we came here was pretty much an imbalance of power, and the insanity caused by the imbalance created."
(09:04:47 PM) dkap: Bebhinn: you find it about where he gestured, surprisingly. And, while some of the bottles are open, and the potatoes are giving you several hairy-eyeballs for poaching their pachiene ... there is some good whiskey in there, if smell is any guide.
(09:05:27 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton: "Apparently, most of the mess out here has the name 'Caelin'."
(09:05:48 PM) Ammon: ((Sam's holding Asher, but says, "Bebhinn drinks alcohol and pats the potatoes on the head."))
(09:06:11 PM) Ammon: "Caelin, huh? I'll remember that."
(09:06:29 PM) Bebhinn: see if potatoes want to join the church of ammon--sing his praises--bring out borc to join in
(09:06:29 PM) dkap: When you both say the name, many of the proto-igors wince.
(09:06:58 PM) dkap: They apparently don't have mouths, they are absorbing their alcohol through shoots.
(09:07:19 PM) dkap: The broccoli is smug about how much more superior it is, since it can sing ...
(09:07:38 PM) Ammon: Look around for a Saucer, and then ask Orpheus if any of the hive-mind Saucers are around.
(09:07:59 PM) Bebhinn: if potatoes don't want to join, pat them nicely again and leave them be. carry broc away
(09:09:51 PM) dkap: Orpheus indicates in the negative.
(09:10:23 PM) Bebhinn: sing song quietly to the broc about the benefits of not falling to the vices of pride
(09:10:27 PM) Ammon: "Hmmm... Ah well, I guess I'll have to find the path my way."
(09:11:01 PM) Ammon: Is it still chaos on the God and Pantheon channels?
(09:11:46 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton: "Speaking of paths. I could use your help. I'm supposed to get a bunch of packs through this gate, but I've lost track of where they are. Could you round them up for me?"
(09:12:16 PM) Ammon: "Do you have anything I can track them by?"
(09:12:55 PM) Bebhinn: wander over to ammon to give a hand
(09:13:06 PM) Ammon: "And, do you want me to bring them here, or bring the Gate with me to send them there?"
(09:13:35 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton: "The conditions are only right here, for the gate, so to here they should be brought."
(09:13:45 PM) Ammon: "Okay"
(09:14:10 PM) Bebhinn: count me in
(09:14:14 PM) Ammon: Pack the items anchoring the Souls into the Dedicated Backpack
(09:14:32 PM) Ammon: "So, any clues where to start looking?"
(09:14:37 PM) Bebhinn: puts broc away so it will be safe
(09:15:46 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton: They are supposed to be in this mansion somewhere ...
(09:15:55 PM) dkap: He waves a hand toward the doorway.
(09:16:41 PM) Ammon: Start sniffing around outside of the lab.
(09:16:58 PM) dkap: Lots of scents.
(09:17:07 PM) Bebhinn: lend a nose
(09:17:21 PM) Ammon: Follow the strongest Garou one that's not Bebhinn or I
(09:17:36 PM) Bebhinn: follow along in crinos
(09:17:54 PM) dkap: Crossing and recrossing all over the place, you are following them.
(09:18:07 PM) Ammon: Yeah, shift up to Crinos, it lessens negative reactions from the other Garou.
(09:18:17 PM) dkap: There is a convergence of them in a large ... well ... eating hall, perhaps? Where a shivarry is going on.
(09:18:41 PM) Bebhinn: what's a shivarry?
(09:18:47 PM) Ammon: Keep Eyes and ears open as well, just in case we miss them by a small amount
(09:19:38 PM) dkap: Wild party, lots of noise, music, food, dancing ... the like.
(09:19:55 PM) dkap: You couldn't miss them, for stopping your nose, ears and eyes.
(09:20:01 PM) Bebhinn: tells ammon--looks like ti could be fun
(09:20:07 PM) Bebhinn: it even
(09:20:58 PM) Bebhinn: proceeding with caution though
(09:22:52 PM) dkap: Many of all sorts of clans ...
(09:23:47 PM) Bebhinn: approach with proper respect of a visitor
(09:23:59 PM) Ammon: Go in, following proper protocol. Howl greetings, name, rank, clan, peaceful intent.
(09:24:36 PM) dkap: You are roundly howled into the party.
(09:25:11 PM) Ammon: Join in.
(09:25:38 PM) Bebhinn: join in--offer flask of good moonshine to nearest garou
(09:26:46 PM) dkap: They dance you into the party. Offer you drink, offer you dance partners, offer you food ...
(09:27:27 PM) Ammon: Spread the word that the ride to a new Gaia is set and ready to go.
(09:27:44 PM) Bebhinn: drink, dance, spread word
(09:28:00 PM) Bebhinn: in a ragabash way
(09:29:23 PM) Caelin [~arkhonii@adsl-75-36-188-65.dsl.pltn13.sbcglobal.net] entered the room.
(09:30:14 PM) Caelin: Heya. don't know how long I can be on, but heya!
(09:30:19 PM) Ammon: IEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! It's CAELIN!!!! RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
(09:30:36 PM) Bebhinn: question to dkap--in any shadows are there weremongoose and have they been saved?
(09:30:44 PM) Ammon: ((Hi Mike!))
(09:30:53 PM) ***Caelin finally finds his rep preceding him. the way it was meant to be.
(09:31:27 PM) ***Caelin ((waves to Ammon))
(09:31:44 PM) Bebhinn: and have any other weres been saved or only garou (i know there were only garou in our shadow, but in general)
(09:32:09 PM) Spot [~chatzilla@c-71-232-106-50.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] entered the room.
(09:32:51 PM) Ammon: "Quick, get Caelin drunk, it'll be safer!"
(09:33:24 PM) ***Caelin ((wonders who set the Pattern on fire))
(09:33:36 PM) Spot: ((You wonder??))
(09:33:58 PM) Ammon: ((Hides the Lighter))
(09:34:06 PM) Spot is now known as Auricle
(09:34:22 PM) Auricle: ((Don't you DARE even THINK about setting the Pattern on fire.))
(09:34:49 PM) dkap: *grin*
(09:35:17 PM) dkap: They might have been saved, but there are only wolf here.
(09:37:01 PM) Bebhinn: to ammon--ya know, we wiped out all of gaia's other children in our shadow. after we get these wolves to safety, maybe we should see if we can save some other werefolk. ya know that whole karma thingy
(09:37:14 PM) Ammon: Agreed.
(09:37:59 PM) Ammon: To Bebhinn, "You keep them here for now, I'm going to figure out a path back to the lab."
(09:38:17 PM) Ammon: "When I get back, we can lead them all to the Gate."
(09:38:44 PM) Bebhinn: start a conga line of wolves so once ammon is ready i can lead them to the gate--sing appropriately bawdy song to keep them entertained
(09:38:58 PM) Ammon: Ammon figures out the most straightforward path to get between the Gate and the Party.
(09:40:01 PM) dkap: Your path is set, and your conga line is ready and willing to follow.
(09:40:20 PM) Bebhinn: start leading the conga line to gate
(09:40:36 PM) Bebhinn: over private pack link tell ammon to herd stragglers
(09:40:41 PM) Ammon: Let Bebhinn lead the line, while Ammon, in Lupus, shows her the path
(09:41:14 PM) Ammon: Lupus should let me bounce back and forth fast enough to herd stragglers while keeping the whole on the path
(09:41:28 PM) dkap: It does.
(09:41:52 PM) dkap: At one point one of the hominid say "Hey! Weren't we supposed to stay in the party room?"
(09:42:28 PM) Bebhinn: b yells--party's moving this way
(09:42:53 PM) Bebhinn: change of loco--so don't me loco and follow to new loco
(09:43:04 PM) Ammon: To the Hominid, "It's time to get this Party on the road."
(09:43:10 PM) dkap: And he, so confused by the logic, just follows along.
(09:43:43 PM) dkap: Ammon, there are a few unconscious ones, you can shift to crenos, and drag them, one at a time ...
(09:43:57 PM) Ammon: Do so.
(09:44:44 PM) Bebhinn: "shake that hot thing--YEAH--(swish tail)--shake that hot thing--WOUH--(swish tail and raise hands above head)
(09:45:02 PM) dkap: You get to the lab, do you lead the line through the gate?
(09:45:11 PM) Caelin left the room (quit: Quit: 1.6.6).
(09:47:01 PM) Bebhinn: get a stick or some such object and make them limbo through the gate (get assistant to help, but do on my own if no one helps)
(09:47:30 PM) Bebhinn: "how low can you---i said how low can you go......"
(09:47:43 PM) Bebhinn: sings limbo song
(09:47:58 PM) dkap: They limbo through the gate.
(09:48:07 PM) Bebhinn: hehehe
(09:49:03 PM) dkap: Count Cagliostro: There is a report of a conga-line, garou party showing up somewhere unscheduled, and a panicked mayor on the communication device.
(09:49:11 PM) Cagliostro: check
(09:49:22 PM) Cagliostro: inform the mayor that I'm on my way and will handle it.
(09:49:29 PM) Cagliostro: (did he say conga line? Hm.)
(09:49:33 PM) Cagliostro: return to the location.
(09:49:41 PM) Cagliostro: Is the firefly crew + Janice still there?
(09:49:48 PM) Bebhinn: over private pack link to ammon--you going through the other side?
(09:49:49 PM) dkap: He did say conga-line, and they are coming through, in full daylight, in the middle of the town square.
(09:50:02 PM) dkap: Not near the castle, thankfully.
(09:51:02 PM) Cagliostro: ah, different location then.
(09:51:06 PM) Cagliostro: so, arrive at town square.
(09:51:07 PM) dkap: Indeed.
(09:51:13 PM) Cagliostro: fortunately the town already has clearance for other things.
(09:51:14 PM) Cagliostro: ;)
(09:51:22 PM) Ammon: To Bebhinn over link, "Once I get this larda$$ Crinos to the Gate, I'll have to go through to get him there..."
(09:52:00 PM) dkap: There are a whole bunch of partying, food-waving, singing, music-making dancing mostly crenos wolves coming through into the town, like someone opened a gate to a really odd Fat Tuesday celebration in New Orleans.
(09:52:05 PM) Bebhinn: to ammon over link--let me know if you need help on the other side. if not i'll keep herding them through
(09:52:50 PM) Bebhinn: out loud to drunk wolves bawdy encourgement is routinely shouted
(09:52:57 PM) Ammon: Link: "Okay. Oh, if I drop off the link, it's prolly only a 1-way portal. If I disappear, ask Eagleton to make the Gate bi-directional."
(09:53:36 PM) Bebhinn: link--got it--how long should i wait? until they all get through?
(09:54:21 PM) Cagliostro: right...
(09:54:32 PM) Cagliostro: consider local property values and open second gate to the Urals
(09:54:42 PM) Cagliostro: in front of the conga line
(09:54:52 PM) Auricle: ((lol))
(09:55:26 PM) dkap: Where in the Urals? Town? City? Wilderness?
(09:55:33 PM) dkap: Warm? Cold?
(09:56:12 PM) Cagliostro: the aforementioned reserve
(09:56:27 PM) Cagliostro: eastern side of the mountain range, at the base
(09:56:39 PM) Cagliostro: very deserted, forested, not too cold
(09:56:59 PM) dkap: BTW, they seem either oblivious to the changes, or at least, not very caring about them.
(09:58:26 PM) dkap: They are dancing right through, without a pause.
(09:58:30 PM) dkap: (But with many paws.)
(09:58:39 PM) Bebhinn: hehehe
(09:59:02 PM) Ammon: Ammon will stop with the first dragged Crinos, just on the far side of the first gate.
(09:59:17 PM) Bebhinn: did link drop?
(09:59:21 PM) Ammon: And, then take a look around
(09:59:36 PM) dkap: Oh, they are both wolf and crenos, but you can drag them.
(09:59:47 PM) dkap: On the other side of the gate, the link is still up.
(10:00:09 PM) dkap: You can see them dancing about 12 feet, and then disappearing again.
(10:00:25 PM) Bebhinn: link--everything okay over there?
(10:00:45 PM) dkap: Ammon, you can hear her.
(10:00:52 PM) Ammon: Link: Yup.
(10:01:23 PM) Ammon: So, european town square, castle in the distance, and a second gate?
(10:02:06 PM) dkap: Indeed.
(10:02:11 PM) Cagliostro: Very scenicly gothic castle in the distance on a small mountain, I think
(10:02:20 PM) dkap: But they are simply disappearing, no jump-gate noises, colours, or anything.
(10:02:54 PM) Cagliostro: the second gate is visibly open, though, right?
(10:03:42 PM) dkap: Well ... visibly? What visible manifestations?
(10:03:54 PM) Cagliostro: you can see the other side in the area of the gate?
(10:04:03 PM) dkap: Only directly in front of it ...
(10:04:09 PM) Cagliostro: ah, k
(10:04:16 PM) dkap: Where Ammon is not.
(10:04:17 PM) Cagliostro: it is a one-way gate, btw, if that is not obvious ;)
(10:04:28 PM) Cagliostro: I was curious. ;)
(10:04:44 PM) Bebhinn: question to dkap--can we (ammon and b) still talk to eagleton over private pack link?
(10:05:33 PM) Ammon: Toss drunk Garou to member of Conga-line and have him continue on.
(10:06:12 PM) Ammon: Get more comatose Garou, add them to the Conga-line just before the second gate, but don't go through it myself
(10:07:55 PM) dkap: Yes, you can still talk to Mr. Eagleton.
(10:08:21 PM) dkap: You (Ammon) did meet the Count, didn't you?
(10:08:41 PM) Ammon: Both Bebhinn and Ammon did, breifly
(10:09:49 PM) dkap: Then, you recognize the Count, when you get through ...
(10:10:10 PM) dkap: Several of the dancing Garou help you with some of the comatose, and they get picked up and dragged through the other gate.
(10:11:09 PM) Ammon: Look visibly more relaxed.
(10:11:50 PM) Bebhinn: over link---and can you load us up with some tranqs? enough to knock weres out for a good long time. like days, not months or years?
(10:12:04 PM) Ammon: To Cagliostro, "Bebhinn wants to round up some other varieties of Weres before they are lost in the collapse of Shadow. Should we bring them here as well?"
(10:13:05 PM) dkap: Mr. Eagleton, over link: "Tranks don't seem to work ... the same ... here ... Local conditions apply."
(10:13:05 PM) Ammon: To Cagliostro, "Oh, and do you know how to get a meeting with the big Wyrm under Reality?"
(10:13:47 PM) Ammon: To Cagliostro, "I have an Afterlife for him."
(10:13:57 PM) Bebhinn: over link--gimme what ya can. in case we gotta knock a few out. what about sleepy sonics?
(10:13:59 PM) Cagliostro: "Certainly, to other refugees; I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about with the other parts, and I probably shouldn't know."
(10:14:22 PM) Ammon: "okay..."
(10:14:37 PM) Cagliostro: "You might talk to someone about talking to her highness Princess Chandra. She seems to be soul-capable."
(10:14:46 PM) ***Ammon shrugs, and fetches more sleepy drunks.
(10:15:07 PM) Ammon: "Do you know how to get in contact with her?"
(10:15:37 PM) Bebhinn: over link--if i remember right, the chinese/japanese weredragons were descended from dragons. supposedly. someone's definately gonna be pissed if we leave them behind to die. or at least didn't try to give 'em a life boat.
(10:15:45 PM) Cagliostro: "I believe she is a member of the courts of Chaos."
(10:16:08 PM) Bebhinn: over link--none left in our home shadow, but we should check if there are any others who need our help
(10:16:19 PM) Bebhinn: over-link---at least try
(10:16:21 PM) Ammon: "Do they have a phone number? Messenger Broccoli? Something?"
(10:16:50 PM) dkap: (I love my game. Look another sentence that is entirely grammatically correct, that has probably never been uttered before.)
(10:17:06 PM) Cagliostro: "In my dealings with them, they contacted me. Do you have the means of contacting Ilkandacian?"
(10:17:23 PM) Ammon: "I'm not sure who that is."
(10:18:40 PM) Ammon: "The few members of Chaos I've met all took off to deal with the present dabacle in progress."
(10:19:12 PM) Ammon: "And the Gods are in far too much turmoil to be useful."
(10:21:27 PM) Ammon: "On the note of further refugees, we'll probably need to segregate them by type. They tend to try to kill each other, in my experience."
(10:21:45 PM) dkap: They seem all to be partying with each other, at the moment.
(10:21:52 PM) dkap: But, then again, they may be drugged, as well.
(10:21:52 PM) Cagliostro: "I cannot help you then. This resettlement is on Ilkdancian and Norton's behalf; if I hear from them, I will try to let you know."
(10:22:24 PM) Cagliostro: "I have two seperate places set up for them - should I have more subcategories?"
(10:22:25 PM) Ammon: "Okay"
(10:22:55 PM) Ammon: "The different varieties of Wolves tend to get along well enough."
(10:23:24 PM) Ammon: "Where I'm from, the Wolves systematically killed off the other weres."
(10:25:12 PM) dkap: Bebhinn: A raven (corax possibly?) with turette's syndrome flies into the lab.
(10:25:32 PM) dkap: At least, it has a foul mouth, and twitches.
(10:25:45 PM) Ammon: ((She's changing a diaper))
(10:25:49 PM) dkap: It flies in just as the last of the conga line goes through.
(10:26:01 PM) dkap: (Of course ... timing is everything.)
(10:26:44 PM) dkap: Auricle. The pattern is, indeed, not on fire. Just in case (yes, I was reading the scrollback.)
(10:27:29 PM) Cagliostro: "Really. Huh. They don't like competition?"
(10:27:58 PM) Auricle: ((I assumed not. But I am relieved. I think that might be enough for her to focus entirely. And i'm not sure her focused entirely is safe for anyone. *grin* ))
(10:28:40 PM) Bebhinn: well a mother-fucking good mornin' to you too. are ya just a talent raven or are ya be a corax cousin?
(10:29:20 PM) Bebhinn: over link--well speak of the devil--things definately have a sense of dramatic timing in this place
(10:30:15 PM) dkap: Bird: What the *%^!!$ is a corax? And I sure as Q(&% ain't your cousin.
(10:30:17 PM) Ammon: To Cagliostro, "Not really"
(10:31:05 PM) Cagliostro: "Good to know. Can you tell me anything else about them?"
(10:31:16 PM) Bebhinn: to bird: are ya a were? can you change form inta a human? like this (switches to homid)? or are ya just a bird?
(10:32:07 PM) Bebhinn: talented either way, i must say. i know many a truck driver who would be envious of that mouth
(10:32:25 PM) dkap: Auricle: That would be dangerous, indeed, possibly, not survivable for anyone other than an old-lord. Caelin-level debacle.
(10:33:32 PM) Ammon: To Cagliostro, "Where I was from at least, there were several shifters. Wolves, Great Cats, Bears, Lizards, Snakes, Dragons, Ravens, Foxes, Coyotes, Sharks, etc."
(10:33:45 PM) dkap: Bird: What in Bloody &% is a truck driver, and why *twitch* would I (%&^ ever want to be shaped like _that_ &%(*Q mess?
(10:34:09 PM) Bebhinn: to bird: change of scenery
(10:34:13 PM) Bebhinn: ?
(10:34:17 PM) Cagliostro: "Interesting. I was only told about the wolves, and not very much about them. I didn't realize they went after other shifters. That might have implications for other competition."
(10:35:19 PM) Bebhinn: to bird: is there something i can help ya with?
(10:35:25 PM) Ammon: To Cagliostro, "Each was created with a diffrent job to protect and aid Gaia. The wolves got cocky, though, and started killing the others off..."
(10:35:46 PM) dkap: Bird: I don't give a (*%&@ about scenery *twitch*.
(10:35:53 PM) Cagliostro: "Hubris and violence. Excellent. Anything else I should know about the wolves, once their current state wears off?"
(10:36:00 PM) Ammon: Ammon will give Cagliostro the generic White Wolf info on Shifters, if Sam knows it.
(10:36:50 PM) Ammon: If not, I can start the long diatribe here. ;-)
(10:37:29 PM) Cagliostro: I do know it. ;)
(10:37:37 PM) Ammon: List the Tribes, the general overview of their beleifs, general practices for dominance and hierchy, etc.
(10:37:57 PM) dkap: Bird: What the (*& would I need from *twitch* something like _you_? I'm on a *%!& errand from Mandor, *twitch* to some bit of his family.
(10:38:22 PM) Ammon: Ammon actually learned most of the histories of the other shifter races, as well as several Bear rituals, so he'll go into some detail on the different weres.
(10:38:26 PM) Cagliostro: would ammon include the BSDs?
(10:38:34 PM) Ammon: Yup.
(10:38:37 PM) Cagliostro: k.
(10:39:05 PM) dkap: Any of the vamp stuff, as well, to round things out?
(10:39:40 PM) Ammon: He'd prolly go from the BSD's into the Weaver/Wyld/Wyrm description, and how the balance shifted, creating the corruption that led to the BSD's
(10:39:43 PM) dkap: And the interesting correlations between the vamp divisions, and the woof divisions?
(10:40:55 PM) Ammon: The Balance description would prolly then move onto Vamps, Mages, Mummies and Changelings
(10:41:03 PM) dkap: Cagliostro: The Wyld sounds like what the Gardners take care of ...
(10:41:13 PM) Ammon: Since Ammon is too much of a geek.
(10:41:36 PM) Cagliostro: gm: interesting. so hopefully the strain of the inner world won't cause a problem.
(10:41:59 PM) Cagliostro: "How will the lack of a moon affect the wolves? Is it just their breeding cycle that's tied to the moon?"
(10:42:03 PM) Caelin [~arkhonii@adsl-75-36-188-65.dsl.pltn13.sbcglobal.net] entered the room.
(10:42:31 PM) Cagliostro: "I also get the impression that vampires and werewolves do not get along well in general, but there are exceptions?"
(10:42:34 PM) Ammon: "First off, it'll prolly scare them incredibly."
(10:42:44 PM) dkap: Bebhinn: Didn't Mandor claim _you_ as a relative?
(10:43:17 PM) Bebhinn: sister
(10:43:23 PM) dkap: Exactly ...
(10:43:34 PM) dkap: Bird: What the (*& would I need from *twitch* something like _you_? I'm on a *%!& errand from Mandor, *twitch* to some bit of his family.
(10:43:42 PM) Ammon: "Positive relations between Vampires and Garou is very, very rare, but it has been known to happen."
(10:43:58 PM) dkap: Ammon: especially if one is a mime?
(10:44:21 PM) Ammon: Luc was our poster child for Golconda. ;-)
(10:44:30 PM) Bebhinn: to bird--proceed then
(10:44:31 PM) Cagliostro: "Scare. Hm. I don't think I want to see them scared. I think I'll stick with 'unknown' for now. We don't know if there are any moons, because the sun never sets."
(10:45:01 PM) Ammon: "I know a Moon that might be looking for a place to be."
(10:45:31 PM) dkap: Count, didn't Spot say he could feel a moon-presence?
(10:45:38 PM) Cagliostro: "You should talk to Faythe, who is the ... proprietor? of this place."
(10:45:49 PM) Cagliostro: dkap: you know, I have no idea.
(10:45:55 PM) Cagliostro: how many months ago was that? :)
(10:46:24 PM) Ammon: "As for the Garou, the lack of a moon will likely drive some to depression/suicide. The Wolves you just received were the Moon's guardians as much as the worlds. Many will take the loss of a moon as a failure. "
(10:46:55 PM) dkap: Auricle: (Spot) Do you recall?
(10:47:00 PM) dkap: I could grub through the logs ...
(10:47:30 PM) Cagliostro: found it, from 9/1
(10:47:36 PM) Cagliostro: there are moons.
(10:47:57 PM) Ammon: Oh good
(10:48:08 PM) Ammon: That will help.
(10:48:19 PM) Cagliostro: revise last revision to: "I think there are moons here, but I have not seen them. I have been informed that visiblity is not important, but I would think it would tie to the phase of the moon."
(10:48:26 PM) Cagliostro: "Does the moon have a phase if you can't see it?"
(10:48:47 PM) Cagliostro: "And what does it mean for a moon to be weaver-tainted?"
(10:48:48 PM) Ammon: "Once the party wears off, the Wolves will likely start to seperate back into tribes, and there will prolly be some fighting, and the occasional death."
(10:49:21 PM) Cagliostro: "Do you have a feel for how much territory each wolf will need?"
(10:49:30 PM) Bebhinn: child is sleepy
(10:49:37 PM) Bebhinn: good night all
(10:49:37 PM) dkap: Indeed, so am I.
(10:49:46 PM) Bebhinn left the room.
(10:49:50 PM) dkap: Once Ammon and the count finish up, I'm calling it game.
(10:49:56 PM) Ammon: Ammon will sit down with Cagliostro and figure out details.
(10:50:40 PM) Cagliostro: sure. we can maybe hash stuff out over email if we have additional thoughts.
(10:50:47 PM) Cagliostro: game is reasonable.
(10:51:14 PM) dkap: Right then! Until next week, true believers!
(10:51:27 PM) Ammon: Go into general Garou behavior, travel, ability to integrate with human culture, etc
(10:51:59 PM) Ammon: Yeah, we can hash stuff over in email, if needed
(10:52:14 PM) Ammon: To that point: ericdeans@ymail.com
(10:52:15 PM) Cagliostro left the room (quit: Quit: Leaving.).
(10:52:31 PM) Ammon: G'night
(10:52:37 PM) Ammon left the room (quit: Quit: ~ Trillian Astra - www.trillian.im ~).
(10:54:47 PM) Auricle left the room.
