Citybuilding and Character Creation

Were you also up for that one I have? Someone has a tie to your creator (or their lineage) and possesses knowledge about your origin they have refused to share. The owe you a debt. (placeholder). This would explain why I insist on saving you despite the risks...

@Remnant: is there anything that GG would need hidden? Cos Frank is your man!

@Kalajel: Shaow seems like the kind of construct which I might approach to do some dangerous work. Sound good? If so, I've to ask you if you succeeded or failed.

Sure! Sounds interesting.

Well if it's possible the memory of a vision he had in the street that left him screaming and openly weeping when he saw it.

I think Partition has the power to suppress memory.

Edit: apparently that’s only short term memories. How do the rules work for doing things that aren’t on your character sheet before you start?

@ flug: What was the task? If it was physical, It's safe to assume I've succeeded. If it required tact and diplomacy, I most likely failed...

That’s the question. It would be something to do with the demon in the labyrinth. How about he asked you to put some pressure (I.e. with thumbscrews) on some demon spawn to find out who is trapped and who might want him out? Seems like it might be within Shaow’s skill set.

With my power Hideous Visage, this is certainly something I could have done and succeeded, so I'll say I succeeded.

Alright, I have this debt left now: Someone convinced you to come to the city to help them with an ongoing problem. they owe you 2 debts. (placeholder).
Any takers between TTtPtV and Georg?

Okay, so Shaow succeeded in getting some information about the demon trapped in the labyrinth and its friends. I owe him a Debt.

@Revenant; does GG have anything physical that he’d need hidden?

I'm catching up on the thread and smiling ear to ear. Love the idea of using the Land's End Labyrinth and the tunnels the way you have.

While I build the list of debts up I will state that you CAN have the left over debts handled by NPCs if you wish. I am composing a master list for debts, NPCs, Rumours and Locations, so will have some questions anyway, but feel free to shout out to me if you want an NPC in the city to have one of your debt connections (one of you HAS to anyway. Persephone's got a boss from hell to worry about...)

@Eugenemarshall; I like the idea that I keep going to you for help by invoking you.

So as a wizard it is implied I can do a whole lot of other stuff by going to my Sanctum. So you can run it one of two ways, you got to me fast enough that I could use my spell, or you didn’t and I had to do something fancy in my place between places... either way that’s definitely me keeping a dangerous secret... do you want that debt @Remnant?

Mmm don't think so, he has minimalist life so probably not...

I'd be fine with long term memory suppression, or even a full erasure of it, being something that could be handled by a previous project in Partition's sanctum. Of course, with something being that monumental a vision, it was probably something VERY important.

No worries. It’s open to everyone then, no takers and I’ll stash something for an NPC.

I don’t think Partition is in a position to be summoning people to the city as it’s only a recent arrival

Also @KaySD I believe Partition is helping GG interpret their visions. And Persephone is my go too when I get in trouble.

Well, it can always be an NPC who summoned me to the city then. It's fine. In fact, I think we should have at least 1 debt tied to an NPC, it helps moving things along...

Yup. I know I'm missing a few of the threads. Lots of things to keep track of.

So given that everyone is Wild and Power faction and the only other NPCs that I know we'll need so far are also both Wild, my suggestions are going to start tying to the other two factions so you're not all utterly stymied when it comes to marking faction for experience.

How would you feel about the person who summoned Shaow being a curator of a museum? While mortal, they'll be someone connected with the supernatural community of Chinatown, and may have called on your expertise of your time period to deal with some difficult problem (and some muscle). I'm thinking something ghostly that needed a traditional approach, and now they're looking into the lost artefact of Qin Shi Hueng that you're looking for.
