This was another good passage, as far as dice-evil goes.
Storyteller says "Okay. Liu, Diamond, please roll conviction. Diamond, you also need to roll your Essence. Kanfi, you feel an unbidden oraclism welling up within you; you'll have to either speak it or expend willpower to avoid. PM, please make a Charisma + Performance roll."
<ROLL> Diamond Borealis rolls 3 dice: <1 1 4> for a botch!
<<OOC>> Liu says, "Wow. We run fleeing into the wilderness."
<ROLL> Phoenix Maiden rolls 8 dice: <1 4 4 8 8 8 8 9> for 5 successes.
<<OOC>> Phoenix Maiden smilesmilesmileZenithsmile.
<<OOC>> Fang says, "Someone stole all the successes!"
<<OOC>> Storyteller says, "Kanfi, options?"
<<OOC>> Kanfi will speak it. Why avoid the damn things?
<<OOC>> Storyteller says "PM, ordinarily, your successes would be great help here. Unfortunately, we have two botches. You've got 4 successes over the difficulty, which means you can cancel one botch- turn it into an ordinary failure- for 3 successes. Diamond's first roll is a failure anyway; you can make it a success. Or, you can make Diamond's second roll a success by de-botching it and adding the success. Unfortunately, Liu's roll was difficulty 2, so the best you can do there is de-botch.
<<OOC>> Phoenix Maiden says, "Meep. You people keep eating my extra successes and I can never roll enough! :p
<<OOC>> Phoenix Maiden says, "Let's make the first roll a success and then undo Liu's botch. Seems most efficient."
<<OOC>> Storyteller says, "Sorry, but I have to do this. "Is that your final answer?""
<<OOC>> Phoenix Maiden says, "... =P"
<<OOC>> Phoenix Maiden says, "Yes. =p"
<<OOC>> Phoenix Maiden says, "wait, wait, can I use a lifeline? :p"
<<OOC>> Storyteller says, "You ARE the lifeline. *cackles*"
We were attacked by hungry ghosts promptly thereafter. Which only two of us could even attack. And swarms of oversized spiders. It was... fun.
