General Discussion

Mind+Time does make a mage think faster, or think back/forward in time, Life+Time would make a mage move faster (such as to search), Entropy+Time would make something probabilistic occur inevitably.

Maybe Torrance doesn't quite have the right combinations to do it :) But that's why there are seven of you... I did rule though that already having Time 2 gave Torrance the chance to find something in 2 minutes, especially with that good roll.

Thanks again for the patience, we're back on schedule with updates in your individual threads first.

Will now write up one for the common thread that advances things a little, even as some of your PCs finish getting grilled.

The next set piece is indeed an investigation of the Burned Wing, whenever you're ready for it, so it could very well be this very night!

Remember I'm compelled to run this partially sandboxy because all of you know the school, its people and its locations, so you're always free to talk to anyone and go anywhere. These things you do will add up to your greater knowledge of what's going on.

I will take Eldarin's suggestion to give everyone a chance to talk a bit first, before I start the next scene. Let's say you all agree to sit at the same table for lunch just to compare notes and make plans. Remember to repeat some of your findings, or if you find it easier that we assume everyone tells everyone everything, so that you don't have to keep retyping/reporting your conversations, we can handwave that in the interests of not letting PbP drag too much.

So remember, I posted some hinted threads, you can go and do those first, or do the exploration first. (Not everything needs to happen in the same day, this isn't a time-sensitive dungeon-crawl where you have to conserve spells and preserve hp. But yes, you've done some social conflict, are about to do some exploration, and there will be 'combat'.)

Already anticipating that Eldarin, when you play out your conversation over lunch, I was going to ask for one roll from each of you which represents your insight on how you might be canny about how to 'stay back' after school or to find your way around, or what the general security is like.

In addition, some of you have Chantry or Sanctuary, those might provide a place to stash yourself away in school while they lock up. Pitch me some idea of what such a place might be. This could give you a bonus on something.

Some of you have Ward. If you're staying back, you'll need a plausible explanation for them or find some way to deal with the responsibility of them. (I may need a roll depending on the number of dots in Ward.)
