The Shadow Carnevale (OOC)

Realistically, I don’t think he would ever let her catch him near it. I think perhaps the most interesting thing is for him to think he was subtle, but for her to piece it together, one way or another. How quickly she figures it out (and how she goes about that) I’d rather leave to you.

Yes please :) I don't have any interesting idea about it myself.

My idea is that we will become more see-through until we are gone. This gives Roald his drive to get out of there more quickly.
Even if it is not what you intended, it can still be Roald's (faulty)opinion.

Edit. With 'gone' I mean things like: dead or locked in the dream forever

Pretty much, something like that. 'Carnevale' is not a typo. :)

I’m not sure what others Albeart is talking about. Ezme was walking toward the cords with purpose, and Lille’s last action was to urge Albeart to follow. Was Roald possibly not following? We have Daryl aboard, so that’s all of us.

Also wanted to say that "barely clothed girl and bearly clothed man" was *amazing* :D

I figured the bear would be faster :)
I could be wrong, though. In that case, feel free to ignore that part. I have to admit sometimes I'm losing track of who is where exactly.

As far as I can tell; we were all in the tent. Ezme and Roald left. The other 3 then left the tent to come back together with the group. Then Ezme showed Albert the fire. Then Lille said "Let's go".

I suppose I assumed the bear would be quicker than the others.

The 'wait' for the others could be a matter of seconds, and could also be about continuing to wait for them and moving as a group. You can all be as together as you all want to be.

Ezme started that direction first, but it's quite possible the bear outran her if she were walking as I'd initially written. That being said, after my post, Vague suggested that Ezme was flying?

lol. I'll try to make a clarifying post....

Still enjoying the puns :D

It sounds like you are trying to intimidate your way past the crowd to avoid a fight [ref] [ref]?

Maybe a roll or two of +CHA will do that? You can either combine your rolls or delegate to a single roll from one character (it will matter if it is the bear or the girl (in the leotard?)).

If you roll very well they will part before you. On a middling roll they will try to avoid anything physical, but you will have to deal with them in the way. A low roll will probably lead to a fight.

Girl in a leotard spinning fire around her! But yes. A leotard.

I don’t know how to do a combined effort. We could do that or I’m fine letting @TheGenerator manage the intimidating.

You both roll and then we see how it went, it does tend towards the average, but also spreads the risk.

We could also let one character take the lead (it does look like that would be Albeart given Ezme's 'what he said') and the other player essentially 'helps'. This game does not have any 'Help' mechanic, I prefer it that way and prefer to have the players 'helping' action affect the fiction and therefore what can be done and what consequences we can expect.

These add up to the same thing, but, by the fiction, both characters are working on the same action.

I did my roll. Got a 9. So close...
Give us a boost, Kara! 😁

Er, so don’t roll, Gen? Make something up?

Nono, I mean do your roll. But do better than 9 😛

Ok!

Sorry, guess I'm not much help here!

I lucid dream quite frequently, so that's been helping me come up with ideas for this adventure. Honestly, bursting into song while in a dream is very much a Kara thing, but I figured Ezme can enjoy the experience now and then, too. (Haha!)

Hehe, that's ok. The dice have other plans for us it seems ;)

I decided to have Albert go on alone. I'm hoping it pays off. With everyone being weakened, that might be the best chance.
