2d6+2=7 to Manipulate Lucinda. Note that Lucinda could burn her String on Summer to knock that down to a 6…
if I knew what the phone had on it in detail, I'd burn the String. It's easier for me to punt, and say there's future consequences (also unknown, but not necessarily bad, and not as bad as denying the compromise and giving out the password).

And as tempted as I was with the password: PASSW0RD or 12345, I'll make something up.


Lucinda/Summer says, "My password... is... DOGEATDOG... all capital letters..."

It's the last thing she sees before the darkness swallows her up.

...

mc voice... Let's cap the Victoria/Vanessa bit, and we'll wrap scene 6 & move into scene 7.

I was thinking "PINKBOOTS" or something similar but that's even better.

Seth strides over to Victoria/Vanessa, "I think it's time we stopped this." He stares into her eyes while grabbing the rock, pulling it from her grip. "You chose the wrong side, and lost."

Shutting down Vanessa: Seth Cold Roll: [2d6-1] = 6-1 = 5 - Burning my two strings on Vanessa to shut her down with a 7, giving her the condition "loser"

And that would mark my last bit of XP for scene 6, advancing and picking Heightened senses.

Kate groans, feeling every laceration and every bruise from Seth's charge. She hears Victoria--or whoever's inside Victoria--mouthing off, she reacts instinctively.

"Shut up shut up SHUT UP!" she screams, and staggers over to the body of her friend. She picks Vic up by the shoulders and begins to shake her violently. "Snap out of it! What's wrong with you Victoria! Man the fuck up and take control of yourself!"

Lash Out! Ooh 2d6+1=8 I guess it's Darkest Self time...

At some point she just starts screaming in frustration. "Useless...so damn useless...she can't even control her own body...and neither can Seth..." runs through her mind.

you could also give Victoria/Vanessa a string or have them also do one harm to you...

I've got 3 already. If she gives me harm...isn't Kate dead at 4? :(

Edit: Oh I see its only mostly dead for PCs, but Kate would have to go Dark anyway to recover, so this just pre-empts that.

yeah, or you could just give her a string over you

Yeah I use that sheet too. Would I be giving a string to Vanessa then?

I think so? It is technically Vanessa you are fighting with.

Vanessa is in control. She gets the String.
Looks like you're knocking her out at 3 Harm.

I think we can move to the next scene...

Should we start looking for a realtor? I wonder what residential prices are in Hell? :D

Hell proper isn't too bad, though it's gentrifying. West Hell, though—that's an inflated market. Everybody wants to be in West Hell, with a view of the lava ocean.

I think the next scene will be near the bridge for Kate (almost dead) and Seth (half dead, I think).

Lucinda's list of dangerous enemies will come for Summer. And maybe a crazy ex girlfriend.

And Clark's team will have to figure out the next steps after Domenica became Werewolf chow.

Still letting the ideas bounce around a bit...

I was curious about that, during the fight I chose for them to do 1 harm to me based off of a roll of 8 I think, since its a gang does that deal 2 harm or still just the 1 harm? If it's just one then I'm at 1 harm, if it's two then I'm half dead.

2 Harm on Seth because it was a gang of demonic creatures and undead. (I just made the terms about equal between the pissed off Werewolf and the mob from Hell)

And, yeah, Summer will get to experience having a soul by dealing with the sins of Lucinda (now that the protective info in her BlackBerry went away). That's the idea, anyway.

Alright! With that all squared away I think were good on changing scenes, Now all Seth needs to do is keep his word to Frederick, save kates life and possibly exorcise Vanessa from Victoria if we cant get her old body back!

Full plate indeed...

That really feels like part of Scene 7 to me. Falling asleep after sacrificing Vanessa was a natural scene-ender.
