    Elements at full power likely can. But the elements are only as strong as the relationship between the holders. When Celestia used them on their own, they weren't as strong. With the current state of friendship between the bearers, they wouldn't be that strong either. THat's (mostly) what I...

    That's just absurd. DC 150 is ALREADY meant to be basically impossible to mortals (and extremely difficult for Names too), and you think the DCs are going to be 200s?! Things that even NAMES would (on their own) be LITERALLY unable to do even in their specialties? Nah. We're probably going to...

    If it didn't come at the cost of kidnapping and banishing our own twilight, I definitely would have gone for it. Who knows, maybe if Velvet ACTUALLY becomes an Hour we can go back and make this Twilight our Name/Long. Who knows. We won't have time (or means) to go back to her for quite some...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    probably in two turns? we need a 3-circle ritual site, which we'd have to try and get next turn somehow. As for BtRC3, I THINK something like Axe + Biedde COULD be doable. Many obstacles can be faced with more than just 1 lore, and we CAN usually afford to fail a roll sometimes. Axe + Biedde +...

    except... -UNAVAILABLE: The Master is gone. :eek::eek::eek: in regards to wrong keys... can we even use them "subtly"? Because if they notice it's hardly less suspicious than banishment. that's fairly reassuring. keep in mind we recruited the top 1%, basically. I think 15 to 20ish is...

    I've been so damned BUSY... I've actually very quickly skimmed the update, and kind of regret not being able to be PROPERLY suprised by... things. But well, let's see what actually happened. I actually only know basically three things: 1) The vote is about how to deal with Windigo Jars 2)...

    It's certainly POSSIBLE that failing the action still has it count, but we won't know until we fail. which we'd rather avoid doing, of course Dealing with Fascinations and Dreads costs actions anyway and is inconvenient as it gives us maluses (and that's ignoring the NARRATIVE consequences)...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    unlikely to be "nothing". Take the Blank Plains: We got access to Mare-summons there. the Tower indicated the path forward for House of the Moon AND gave an SH scrap (admittedly useless to us) (and I don't remember if we got anything else, but I think not). more or less what I expected and...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I think it was more a "don't go overboard" that a "never do them ever". @OurLadyOfWires sorry if you already explained it, but are you fine with making a second sacrament action conditional on still having a reroll? We have no real reason to believe they're together. Neighnia was Copper's...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    The sacrament is the result of doing all 3 actions. But those actions themselves should still have value, and Velvet has never killed someone with an EiB As for personal SH, we can write a conditional to only do the third action if we haven't consumed the reroll on the second, and Baldomare SH...

    we were out of rerolls on SH and the DC is ABOVE 110. it was considered a bit too risky. As for Biedde. I'm leaning Edge Sacrament too. The ONLY valid alternative would be I think to send him leading an expedition instead, and that's probably not worth it right now (and we could send other...

    IF we did a Winter Influence there might be a good argument to take at least one of the 3 "winter sacrament" actions. They don't require us to be at 4/4, so if we did 1 next turn (and hopefully the reroll would ensure it succeeds) then we could do the other two on the following turn.

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    We don't necessarily need heart 4 for ruined church. But we AT THE VERY LEAST Need the heart influence up while being at full health, which means reserving a Mareinette action for it. Normally we have +39. With a +40 from heart influence, +79 total, I'd be willing to give it a shot. Heart 4...
