The Walkabout is
Gabiluzbad
something our characters can do instead of going on the Showtime jaunt?
sailor bii
yes!
Gabiluzbad
So if I'm planning on going on the jaunt
Gabiluzbad
there's not really any need to vote
sailor bii
yep
Gabiluzbad
cool
sailor bii
it's basically an alternate setting for people to go to if they don't think they'll connect with the jaunt, with the caveat that besides the original information brief and two mod-written mingles (one at the beginning, one at like a week from the end) it's entirely player directed
Quinneapolis
Showtime was the rock music adventure right
Gabiluzbad
Yes
sailor bii
yes
Gabiluzbad
Anyways RE: Showtime
Gabiluzbad
I don't feel like Kohaku has particularly strong synergy with any particular part of it?
Gabiluzbad
But
Gabiluzbad
ERIC loves every bit of this jaunt
Gabiluzbad
So I'm gonna shove her in there somehow
Gabiluzbad
My current plan is to try and sign her up for one of the plot roles
Gabiluzbad
and if I don't get in on that then investigator
Gabiluzbad
Unless something jumps out at me when we get a proper writeup for the jaunt
Gabiluzbad
Mainly I just want her to be super excited about not living in the bronze age anymore
Gabiluzbad
Indoor plumbing! Refrigeration! Hot showers!
Gabiluzbad
It's STILL more primitive than she's used to!
Gabiluzbad
Where's the cell phones!? Where's her PS4!?
Gabiluzbad
If she can get a brand new NES that would be cool though
Gabiluzbad
They don't make those anymore you know
Gabiluzbad
Here's a question though
Gabiluzbad
Are all the jaunts posed as "Arcana A vs Arcana B"?
Gabiluzbad
Like this one is Chariot vs Tower
Gabiluzbad
And if so does that mean that there's a fair amount of Player vs Player action from characters backing opposing arcana?
Gabiluzbad
Like tower vs chariot is pretty one sided but
Gabiluzbad
Star vs Emperor or something might be a bit less clear cut
sailor bii
Star v Emperor won't happen
sailor bii
star is dead :c
Gabiluzbad
That was a random example
Gabiluzbad
Emperor vs Moon then
sailor bii
yes
sailor bii
but yeah, actually, now that we're in the third phase of the game they are going to be Arcanum v Arcanum
Gabiluzbad
I jump in just as shit gets crazy
sailor bii
because the Arcana have entered the tournament part of their game
sailor bii
we won't always tell you who's going against each other
sailor bii
(in fact Olympus argues that we probably shouldn't)
Gabiluzbad
It just happened to be obvious this time?
Gabiluzbad
That makes more sense, yeah
sailor bii
yes. because the intro mingle usually has clues as to who will be next
sailor bii
and neither chariot or tower is very subtle
sailor bii
luckily the next one has at least one subtle arcanum
Rama
Also worth noting is that no one actually supports Tower including Tower's own Marked
Rama
The conflict here was more "end this quickly and cleanly" vs. "we should stop what's going on here because it's terrible"
Rama
But the possibility of a Tower win got more people than usual afraid of the consequences of the latter
