Cool. I'm glad we got that sorted out.

I thought of the "River Sipe running through Telkomel" as a establishing use of the wise as well! My line of thinking was: River Sipe runs through the Hegurji Mountains -> There is a city in it's dale -> Hey, maybe I can establish that the river runs through the city. Founding a city at a ...

Again, thanks for clarification! I know I'm getting annoying, but I still don't have a grasp on what a Ob1 "The City of Telkomel-wise" test (for Farouk :P) in particular could look like... 1. Information: Something most everybody knows off the top of their head, or this character in partic...

The key to every job is speed. Get in, get the diamond, get out. No distractions. Ok, this Belief is about to change BUT... I'd make the argument that we just got ambushed by a demon as a consequence of Lilly 's impatience... Any chance I can myself a Fate point from the belief before it's replaced...

While Suen searches for a healer, Farouk builds a makeshift bed, to get Farouk of the ground. Beeing born and raised in the desert, he knows how dangerous it is to lay in the sand. "When the sun is up, the sand gets even hotter than the air, and by night it cools down much faster. In addition, ...

I'm okay with the ruling for now, even though I can't imagine a more basic knowledge about a city than it's main function or source of essential resources... @Eric Can you give an example for something, you would rule as a Ob1 test for City of Telkomel-wise , so I know what to look for when I want ...

I might have been willing to come down to Ob 2, but not Ob 1. :P I'm okay with the ruling for now, even though I can't imagine a more basic knowledge about a city than it's main function or source of essential resources... @Eric Can you give an example for something, you would rule as a Ob1 test fo...

Before we forget this lovely lady:

Marta, an old crone, one of the Church's first followers, prostrates herself before you, "Hail Suen, our savior. Hail Sabit, our matriarch, who speaks with the voices of the god!"

Like mentioned on Discord, I worked on Farouks BITs . I think I got a better feeling for what does and what doesn't work, over the time we were playing. I dropped the Belief about asking the outlaws about the red diamond. Even though I got a bit of artha out of, I somehow never got an answer. :D May...

Lilly: "Not a drop of blood. If anything it is polished by the sand. Slew might be a strong word" and Suen: "Drove off, at least. Farouk, I don't know if I even did anything...but I hope you realize you can trust me." " "Drove off" is enough for the moment. I do n...

When he wakes, he will have 1 Forte.

After 4 hours he is at B1 Forte and gets conscious again. After 16 h in total he is back at his starting B4 Forte.

Now that "we" lost a hefty chunk of our water supplies, Farouk thinks about alternatives. Unless you (Eric) have something else in mind, I would like to roll a City of Telkomel-wise test, to establish that the Sipe River runs through the city. I bet it's corrupted like the rest of the cit...

"And thank you, Suen-Magir . Thank you for saving my life. I owe you a lot." "Hey! What am I? Too short to notice?" Hehe. :D I thought Lilly was still fighting her ear plugs and hasn't joined Suen , Mekertu and Farouk yet. Aside from that I didn't wan't to veer off from Nuteshs ...

Tearing his downturned eyes away from Sabit and toward Nutesh, he lets out a strangled gasp and rushes toward the shifting sands. "Did the demon kill Nutesh? Quick, someone get some rope!" When Suen approaches, Farouk greets him with an ungraceful bow: " Suen-Magir ," This is th...

Mekertu meets you at the edge of the sandwater, extending his hand to help you out, even as the ground laps and falls beneath his feet. "Do not be too upset, Farouk. The desert takes and we live. And now Akhom cannot complain that you overburden Bassam." He looks behind you as you scrabbl...

The Jackal being resolved, I think now is an appropriate time for that. This seems not that unlikely to me, so Ob 2? Sounds good! BL Stuff-wise Ob2; Perception B5 [_5d6s4]=(3, 2, 4, 5, 6)=3=3 Even though it's not that heroic, this roll is the most exciting for me, yet. ^^ Maybe because I'm only awa...

Cool. Thanks for the clarification! :) To be honest: I'm a bit sad that Nutesh just floats. I didn't want him to die of course and it makes sense for him, to not be affected, but this way Farouk achieved nothing for the group, except for loosing a bunch of their supplies :P (He contributed to the s...

Farouk: Your gear instantly falls into the sand as it continues to rush like water. Nutesh is a dead weight in your arms. Bassam snorts and splutters as he falls deeper, ever deeper into the sandwater. The curtain of sand flashes by, the demon retreating, but your focus is now here, with Bassam in ...
