this was for analyse truth, and Aalith is right just the Willpower if you do not have counterspelling, most of you do not!  :P

Oh. It looks like I'm really tired. But it's okay, analyze truth is directional, so he must focus on one person at a time (I think he's onto Rafa), and I'm not even speaking, so disregard that roll :)

nego

As I don' t know, how you usually do the negotiations, I'm posting my roll for it so that you can continue.

Simply just make a point towards what you want to achieve (in IC). More money, some help, more information etc. I'd offer to help with my negotiation skill, but 8 sux seems enough :)

I can assume you are making the points and Freya battles it out as well, but it would be nice to see an Ic about just how you want it done and why you need more cash, this could mean modifers

P.s. Rulling here 20 dice max, exception is rolls with edge. are you OK with this? or would you favour an all out approach?

Analyse truth vs. Rafa? Not going to bother resisting, don't know what he'd be lying about right now...

no problem for me, as I don't have any dicepool that reaches 20 for now and for the forseable future.

Wasn't really analyzing truth. Just an additional effect of the eyes piercing to the soul.
Sorry for a small delay ;)

I may have a dice pool of 20...If I roll twice :)

That's just pure scary  :o If I can tell you the truth, Caretaker's appearance and his name somehow always brings up a gravedigger in my mind. I don't know why, I think there was a comic back then...or something...

iirc, when aiding, the hits of the one doing the aid are added to the dicepool, not added to hits.

i know, but in this case i did roll for Freya the 3 dice, 2 hits, would you prefer to wait a day until she does it herself?
if so we can do that as well,
just i wanted to speed things up.  :-[

Actually Ghede the Undertaker - Lua of the Voodoo that Caretaker is preaching of is usually depicted like a gravedigger in a suit with a cylinder and a cigar. He is a master that leads after death. He digs the graves to free them not bury them though. He is also master of life pleasures - sex, alcohol and cigar.

and he was mentioned in several movies/comic books also. look for Ghede or Guede.

and if I did give that appearance, then my goal is achieved.

There's one thing I still want to do, and that's to look up those names you've given.  I have media junkie, a media sites knowledge (so a good idea on where to look) plus probably the most dice on matrix searches.  I'll do my rolls tonight, but if you can already tell me  the interval, I know if I can do it in the restaurant or if I have to do it at home.  If those people are well-known (equivalent to national or international fame) finding the basics shouldn't be too difficult.  Digging deeper might be of course.

if you can buy a hit, you will have the basic information as they are Trid stars information is everywhere.

I can buy 1 hit on my knowledge skill (media sites) to know where to look, and I can buy 3 hits on my search (if I quickly pop in VR) or 2 if I can't.

“BIG BEN” Howard
Benjamin Howard was born in 2028 in Sacramento, California Free State. Benjamin, also known as “Big Ben,” grew up with a fascination with biology. Later that fascination focused on sims and recorded senses and emotions. He got his Master’s in biochemistry at 23 at University of Southern California, and then continued there to study film. Graduating with a second Master’s degree in fine arts, he began a career with Pathfinder Multimedia. At thirty-one he directed back-to-back hits: Ghosts of 2012, a documentary on the rise of magic, which included some neverbefore-seen enhanced security camera footage from those days, and Yomi, a tear-jerking drama of a Japanese ork growing up fighting prejudice and gang pressures. Most of his films since then have been stunning documentaries or emotionally strong dramas, and he has won Oscars for best documentary and best picture of the year. There has been some controversy over some of the facts he’s presented in a few films, including the European-banned drama, NightWraith and the still-controversial trid documentary Anguish, based on events of the Night of Rage. His current film, A Fistful of Credsticks moves him into the action genre with heroine Jenny Freelance battling a faceless corporation tangled up in the recovery of the lost city of Atlantis.

Pandora
Pandora is a sim star for Pathfinder Multimedia. Her real name is Rebecca Oswick, and she was born in 2034 in Juneau, Athabaskan Council. Her parents are marine biologists. Her mother is from Quebec, so she learned some French. At the age of seventeen, she headed to San Francisco to look for acting work and hopefully build a career for herself. She worked as a hotel maid and as a courier until her big break at eighteen. Director Allan Ford took a chance, casting young Ms. Oswick as lead actress in a series adapted from classic Star Wars literature. The series was a huge success, and her talent was recognized. Rebecca changed her name to Pandora and continued to play strong female heroines. She’s broken out of the typecasting with the occasional drama and suspense-themed films . Her current film is A Fistful of Credsticks, a fantasy action film, where her character must find the artifacts that will lead her to the lost city of Atlantis before some corporation plunders it.
