Game 225: Peridot

Your team table is still there, along with a small patch of ground and your benches, there's just--nothing else. It's very dark, and bitterly cold, except for a few torches that have appeared around your table and a waning moon amongst a sea of stars.

On the table, along with your mead, is a single bone disk, an awl, and a leather bag.

Joe's voice comes out of nowhere. "Name three attributes of your team, and carve a symbol. Speak your answers out loud and put the bone in the bag when you're done."

You'll find that the awl carves the bone like butter, almost like drawing with a pen.

OOC: The symbol should be fairly simple, to as to be crudely carved on a small disk, and contain no letters, numbers, or colors. Verbal description or a quick graphic both welcome.

Creepy . . .

Yeah, but it doesn't sound too bad?

Attribute 1: Trust
Attribute 2: Beauty
Attribute 3: Treasures family
Symbol: A fish

With a little shudder, the bag spits your disk back out; whatever you carved is now burned in neatly and painted in red. "If this were a charm or spell, what three powers would it grant? They need not be related to your attributes, but you could start with those if you wish. Again, speak your answers out loud and put the bone in the bag when you're done."

~

The family one should obviously be a protective shield.

I like that. Whoever you cast it on is protected at least for a little while?

Maybe one of those powers would be calling your teammates, whenever you're in trouble. Suddenly, poof, people who've got your back are there.

It's a good idea. I thought about talking to people, but people have phones for that. Just seeing someone is great.

What about something to see who you truly are? Family and trust would see that. And some people say true beauty is being who you are?

[Considering.]

Ooh, seeing to the true nature of someone? I like it.

Power 1: Protection Shield -- Just what it says on the tin! Given to people you care about.
Power 2: Summon Teammates -- Who you gonna call?
Power 3: True Sight-- Being able to tell a person's true nature. Not invasive, but seeing what people who trust/care about them. Their "inner beauty," so to speak.

A long scroll unrolls from the bag, along with a quill and inkwell. This is on the scroll.

"Of the sets of attributes listed, tell me which you believe was spoken by which team. For the sake of this game, the knights of Sterling have been divided into free swords and those who are sworn to Personae. If you have no insight, you may leave any or all blank."

"Of the powers listed, tell me which three you would most like to have at your disposal. Do not list what you originally put in."

OOC: For attributes, just put down the number from the list. I've consolidated similar powers into one--for example if two teams put down flying, there would only be one flying power listed. (But if one put down flying and one put down sprouting wings, those would be two different entries.) So if you see a power that's identical in function but differently worded to something you submitted, don't vote for it.

I don't think I'll be any help here.

That's okay. Next one like this, you will be.
