Ooc: I think, going to an empty farm and doing the ritual at a secluded place is an excellent idea.

Margaret informs the rest of you about an abandoned barn a couple miles away. The barn there should be a good place to hide for the hour needed. You head over there and there is in fact an abandoned barn. It seems very old, yet somehow you don't get the sense it will fall apart around you.
You take the venom gland and fey lilly, as well as the book that mentioned the ritual. It seems simple enough, but simple can be deceptive.

I am assuming Margaret is going to make the Weird roll. As far as Ajay and Seth, I don't think either can use Help Out unless you can explain how each of you have 0 or -1 weird and yet would be able to help someone perform a magic ritualFeb 5, 2024 8:40 pm
OOC:
Well I don't know about us needing weird to help out, but Seth or Ajay both would have enough experience with the supernatural that they may be able to be told what to do to help with the ritual. Feb 5, 2024 9:02 pm
OOC:
Margaret would be the one rolling weird, but in order to do a move you must be able to do it. What I am saying is this: do one of you have a reason that you would be able to help Margaret with her role even though it seems neither of you are magically inclined and thus have no experience with it yourselves?Imagine giving a plumber advice when you don't really know how to fix a pipe at all. What advice or help could you really give?

You perform the ritual, but the result doesn't seem to match the book as you expect. None the less, it seems to have worked, but you get the feeling you will have to be decisive or else.
OOC:
This version is short lasting. If the spider Shepard finds out, he may flee until it wears off. If he doesn't find out, you should be able to finish him off. To apply it, it will need to be coated onto something that will puncture it, like a knife or arrowhead.

I think we all have melee weapons then (I have a hunting knife). So how many of our weapons would we be able to coat, and if we can coat bullets can we cover a whole clip worth?

OOC:
I'm not sure if you can coat a bullet in what is effectively poison. Would the combustion inside of the barrel dry out the liquid? If we are not sure, I can have one of you roll +Sharp to see if you can figure it out.Success: sure, you can coat a bullet and still have enough for 1 weapon, or for a second bullet
Partial success: sure, but you would be putting all of it on the 1 bullet if you went through with it
Failure: you cannot, and you waisted some of it trying, so now only 1 weapon can be coated

I say we play it safe and just coat a few blades once we get closer.Last edited February 7, 2024 12:07 am

If everyone else agrees then I will send you guys back to the forest, I assume Feb 7, 2024 12:54 am
OOC:
Yeah I think that coating blades is the best way to go. If the bullets were hollow points I would say that you could inject some of the poison in there and be ok, but blades are a better choice I think. I am ready to head back to the forest whenever everyone else is ready.

OOC: I think going for melee weapons like blades/swords are better. With the amount of poison we created, can we coat everyone's weapons with it? Melee weapons, I mean.

OOC:
If you are playing it safe and coating just the edges or tips of knifes, you can coat 3 of them. Once gives prolonged exposure to air, they have 10 minutes of potency, so you should apply just before an ambush or after you have been attacked by it Feb 7, 2024 3:32 pm
OOC:
Yup, let's do this. Do we know if it is immune to normal weapons or can we still damage it with our guns? I am wondering if I can knock it down with my sniper rifle and then we can stab it with the poison. Also, anything else we want to do to prepare?
