___Enemy List___
Linna

___Speed Roll___
John: 1 Speed + 1 Roll = 2
Linna: 3 Speed + 5 Roll = 8

___Action Priority___
Linna: 8
John: 2

___Events___
John uses Power Flow (3 Mana)
+13 Strength

Linna attacks (Full Body Motion) John
John attempts to evade with Impulse Evasion:
Linna: 11 Aim + 4 Roll = 15 vs 13 = 3 Roll + 10 Arcane :John
Attack lands, inflicting 9 damage to armor and 1 Trauma to John

Linna attacks (Full Body Motion) John
John attempts to evade with Evade:
Linna: 11 Aim + 1 Roll = 12 vs 14 = 4 Roll + 10 Arcane :John
Attack misses

John uses Falling Star on Linna
Linna attempts to evade with Block:
Linna: 11 Aim + 1 Roll = 12 vs 13 = 6 Roll + 7 Aim :John
Block misses
Attack lands, inflicting 12 damage to ???, 17 Trauma to Linna


"Hoof! You can give that kind of punishment without even using your rod!
I'm getting all fired up!"


After you Power Flow up, the maid swings the apron staff at you this time from a deep stance, landing an armor-crushing blow on one hit, but you manage to Impulse Evade to dodge the second.

She seems to be vulnerable right after an attack from a stance, so you leap up into the air with kinetics and then bring your halberd down as you fall, managing to get past Linna’s block, smashing through a glimmering barrier, and impacting the maid’s body.

Or, well, you think it’s her body. It feels more like smacking a pole into the base of a full-grown tree.

"Let's sit down. I don't mind it here at all."

You settle for a roast chicken thigh and some vegetables while Tabi has some sort of roasted short-noodles and fried fruit slices. The two of you take your plates over to a small table and start digging in.

"What did you study when you were in the university?"

Tabi: ”Magic sequence algorithms in constructs, specifically telepathic interaction between a person and a construct. Trying to figure out a way to record and implant memories without going into the shamanistic spirit stuff, along with trying to develop a cheap, standardized module that you can hook up to a construct and control just by thinking. Those kinds of things you only see in high-end construct weapons and their inner workings are hidden behind layers of security, not something that can be analyzed and used by tinkerers.”

"Before I get on my way, you mentioned gates earlier, think you'd be able t' teach me somethin' about that, unless you think it'd be too dangerous or time consumin' given my mission.
Just ask as if a bunch of those gauntlet users show up 'gain, not sure the three of us would make it out in one piece, so I'd welcome any 'vantage I can get over 'em."


Madenuuk: ”I do not know how to work gates myself, but I know the concept behind them. When someone casts magic, they are in a way opening a miniscule gate that is just enough for them to cast magic. Opening a true gate requires a great deal of skill to force the gate to be wider to the point where larger and more complex entities and energies from the otherworld can flow through.

In the center of the thickest part of the north-east forest where we hunted, there is a small clearing with a village, Ikkuna, where a handful of gate shamans live, secluded from the rest of the world. The safest way to reach the village is taking a path north of Gabel to a different village, Takana, and then south-west to Ikkuma.”

"Hm... these construct weapons seems to be out of my price range, unless you'd be willing to negotiate the Caelum one below 8 gold. No, maybe I should pay you a visit for those some other time. I'll take a lamp for your trouble though, or maybe a few."

You manage to negotiate a deal of two lamps for 5 silver total!

"By the way, have you heard the rumors? Supposedly, the people behind the bombings have a unique form of magic at their disposal... You wouldn't happen to have any exotic magic items, especially ones that might be related to that, would you? I'd be very interested - just for research, of course."

Wares Dealer: ”I’ve heard that they’re using a weird form of magic or some sort of specialized construct. Never seen one in person though.”

Crap, I was literally writing this post when the roll got rolled! Oh well.

Power Flow, do a sort of horizontal Falling Star forward into a big halberd swing. Like an armored halberd-wielding ballista bolt.
"Rasantbrise!"

Linna waits

John uses Micrometeor on Linna

John: 8 Aim + 4 Roll = 12 vs 26 = 11 Aim + 5 Roll + 10 Evasion :Linna

Linna attacks (Full Body Motion) John
John attempts to evade with Impulse Evasion
Linna: 11 Aim + 4 Roll = 15 vs 13 = 3 Roll + 10 Arcane :John
Attack lands, inflicting 9 damage to armor and 5.5 Trauma to John


After Power Flowing up, you launch a Micrometeor impact bolt, which Linna half-parries, half-dodges, and completely avoids.

"Get ready, I'm coming!"

Launching yourself forward with a slight upward angle like a horizontal Falling Star, you strike at Linna only to miss again, and fail to dodge her own attack, getting a nice bruise from her apron-staff smashing into your armor.

Tabi: ”I had a few basic functioning prototypes for both. The interface construct can be programmed and hooked up to other constructs, works at a range of about 3 meters for non-telepaths. Works great for opening locked construct-based doors, too. I have one with me, actually.”

She pulls out a brochure-sized metal-looking object and hands it to you for you to see. It’s about as thick as your finger and a bit heavy. On what you assume is the top surface are a few buttons and a rectangular crystal with glowing blocky text in it, reading “Door Opener”.

Tabi: ”I lent a few copies of the interface to my friends for them to use in their constructs, makes it easy to set up temporary, easy-to-change controls until they decide on a final control system for their construct. They probably still have ‘em. Called it the Controller Brick.

As for the memory recording and implanting, I got a basic memory recorder and writer working. Never finished making the filter so when it records something, it records everything - all sensory inputs, what your thoughts and feelings are. Lot of data. The memory crystal my prototype had only had enough space for about a tenth of a second of recording, if even. Also all that info being dumped into your head makes it feel like you’re going through that experience instead of it being a memory you recall, so that might need fixing.”


She eats a few forkfuls of her short-noodles before stopping, seeming to think about something.

Tabi: ”Hmm.”

She pushes a few buttons on the Controller Brick you’re holding, and the screen changes to display “Input Test”, with a wavering line graph thing and a picture of a compass, with the needle of the compass pointing towards Tabi.

Tabi: ”It doesn’t look like it can pick up on your thoughts. You weren’t affected by the paralysis thing, either. I didn’t really believe you when you said you were a nullifier, since you could’ve been good at telepathic defenses, but this thing can still point at people who are using some serious pathic guards. Guess you’re the real deal, huh.”

You place a proxy nearby and try to use it to scan people nearby - not thoughts, just locations.

It works fairly well. Without needing to delve into their thoughts, it takes minimal effort to locate a vast number of people in the area. It probably gives away the location of you (or your proxy) almost instantly, though.

The wolf nods his head, and after taking the coffin and equipping your Warhammer, you head up and out to the backyard where you see Horoma holding a rifle, and Miimas standing beside her, pointing towards the distant forest.

"Miimas, Horoma, gonna go see if I can sell a few of these stones, meet you at the gate?"

Miimas: ”Alright, we’ll be there in a sec.”

A crack of ignited powder and a flash of white smoke, Horoma snapping back slightly as her small body absorbs the recoil.

Horoma: ”Meet you there.”

Heading into town, you walk around for a bit before finding a place that looks like they sell magic items. Entering the large, dome-shaped building, the room has tables with various magic organ parts, even a few fully intact ones, and several constructs here and there. The walls are decorated with tapestry featuring ornate designs or imagery of beasts and spirity-things, the majority of the stone floors covered with carpeting.

A shaman dressed in robes greets you.

Store Owner: ”Welcome, how may I help you?”

You nod to the dealer and make your way out of town, putting your cloak back on. You reach the guard tower again soon enough, where the guard waves to you.

Guard: ”How’d that go? Also, did you hear about anything happening? None of their communication lights seem to be working.”

You said you're from the south? Do you mean like, old Daeli territory?"
