Date/time stamps would really help me out.
So far as I know, it's about 5pm, the day of the meet for Freddie, and he should be showing up at the target area in the next couple of minutes. |

Bearclaw--I think Fenris was trying to keep it a little loose because we were all travelling differing distances with differing methods...I know as a GM I certainly wouldn't want to keep track of how long it takes Will to fly from New York and Twilight to come in from Paris, while extrapolating the time savings of hitting Mach 4 for a few seconds and cruising at Mach 3 to cover a few other people.
I'd say insert yourself and we can all work it out... |

Blitz - Your link is fubar again :(
Also, are you wearing a longcoat or a normal coat, and either way, what's the concealability of your armor and weapons? Bearclaw - McQuillan was exactly right. As I mentioned, I was pretty much just letting you guys do what you wanted and arrive at the meet site when you want, which is why I'm not posting time/date stamps. For awhile, some of you were 6-8 hours behind the others. |

In Blitz's post, the first word "Nevermore" is a link to a picture.

Bearclaw--When she fixed it the first time, it got linked to a temporary file, probably in a Yahoo! Briefcase or some such...
Blitz--You can shoot me over the photo and I can post it for you somewhere stable if you don't have a spot yourself. |

As I'm not especially good at this IC, I'll do it out of character.
Freddie looks like: Mask = Stevie Nicks, circa 1978 or so, in white lace and a black hat. Real life = A Brooks Brothers business suit, charcol grey, with a white shirt, red suspenders, and matching blue with red and white diagonal stripes tie and handkerchief. A wrap around Ziess optical shades, a charcol grey Mortimer Great Coat and fedorah complete the outfit. Freddie is 193 cm (6'4") and fairly heavy solidly built (97K, or 213#). His skin is very pale, and his teeth and nails are both much more pointy than they should be. His limbs seem to be a little too long for his body, and any careful examination reveals that he's bald under the hat. Astral = A huge, muscular black man, naked from the waist up, with an empty oil lamp hanging from his belt. |

You have to beat my successes to pierce the illusion, don't you? If so, you didn't make it.
PS, as I can't see the picture, what does she look like? The picture in my head was Kate Beckinsdale from Underworld. But that's mostly because I like that picture :) |

Bearclaw--I have to meet or beat. My TN to resist is the Force of the spell, I believe it's also my TN for the Centering...You have 6 successes. If the spell is Force 5+ than I don't pierce it, Force 4 or less than I do...
The description of Kate Beckinsale is close... |

Gotcha, so it's force 5 and you don't see anyone but Stevie, although the astral form is definately out of synch with the form in front of you.

You kept saying Brittany...she's never heard of that (neither have I) so...just play it like a mistake in character. She's not exactly fond of the British ;)
