I pocket the potion given to me by Jenessa. I will remember to
just call her that. The Eve crosses my lap... Moving on...
Later at the Ranch house I have my shield at the ready, Eldi
Sverđ too ready in my opposite hand. To those who are not
enchanted, I am a pretty blonde woman who looks to be about 20
years old, in very old tattered clothing. Otherwise, now that
I'm free of the ceilings, I'm very tall, nine feet, with horns
that curl like a goat's. My armor and shield are reminiscent of
the Knights Templar, but not quite right.
I approve of Eve's weapons and armor. Her sorcerous powers seem
very useful. As for the wolves, I notice them but I don't
comment on them. I simply stay close to Eve.
Great, we're entering another building. Hopefully the ceilings
are high. I step through the opening and follow Eve into the
darkness. When the lurching form begins to approach, I ready
myself. Shield forward, sword arm back but laying the blade
across the top of the shield reading a thrust.

I gotta find one of those portals. Definitely not going to
involve myself with a chantry, though. But now that I have the
information, there's a will. So the ways shall be found. Later.
When we reach our destination, as suggested by our intrepid
leader, I float around the edges, kind of fading into the
background of things. If nothing else, I can be a surprise if
something attacks. Not that I really have the physicality to do
much, but I can kick and hit with some of the middling of them.

He stayed close to Janessa, alert as they walked along. He
noticed the wolves, but as long as they weren't bothering them,
he would not bother them.
As for what observers saw? That guy looks just like Almanzo
Fitzgerald, who is practically a household name.
When he approached the porch and smelled that smell, he gaged a
bit, and held his hand out for Jenessa to be wary. He still
hadn't let her through the door when the lumbering [i]thing[i]
made itself known. Immediately, he called upon his magic in a
flashy way, producing a small notebook and putting in the names
of everyone present and not antagonistic to him.

She Followed the others through the portal, squinting as they
came out the other side into the bright sun. She looked around
curiously as Eve lead them along. When she saw the first wolf
she stopped for just a second to look at it in a bit of awe. It
was the first wolf she had ever seen that wasn't in a zoo. The
wolves didn't seem inclined to interact in any way so she let
them be.
When they reached the building and Eve opened the door for the
smell of death and decay to waft out she gagged and took a step
backwards away from the building. Phoebus kept her from entering
the building, not that she had been in any hurry to go in, but
the way he pulled out a notebook and wrote things down caused
her to tilt her head.
"What's going on?"

The shambling figure lurches into the light and the party can
see them clearly:
A wounded mortal. He approaches the group, and gasps for air,
but says… nothing.
He just kind of stays there, staring at Eve for a moment. He
says nothing. He does nothing. After a moment’s passing, he
looks utterly confused and afraid.

I call on my glamour and activate Eldi Sverd. It's blade lights
with a white flame, shedding light like a torch would. Now we
have a better view of everything. The man before us, injured and
scared... "If anyone can heal this man, he may remember
something useful." I say to the group.

It occurs to me that luck would be useful about now for all of
us. Of course, I really should have done it before, but I can't
be on the ball perfectly every time. We've all more or less
implicitly stated we're a D&D party, which is about as closely
related as my foster siblings. Since we really don't have time
or inclination to take a blood oath, it will have to do.

"Break a leg, everyone!" I chirp cheerfully, invoking the wish
of luck given to performers and combatants with a wish for the
reverse. Theater people are weird, man.

Hearing Catherine's words, he stepped towards the lumbering mess
of the man. "I allow you to touch me," he said first of all.
Then he takes a handkerchief and slowly began daubing at the
man's injuries. He was attempting to make them seen less severe.
"Sit down, have a rest." Unfortunately the magic did have a wyrd
effect- the area grew lighter and water running could be heard.
He ignored it and focused on the cantrip and the patient.
((Well of Life, Spring 3, Actor 5, 3 successes one scene (!) and

As Phoebus stepped into the house she followed him looking first
at the injured man he was tending to. She had a little skill in
medicine, but Phoebus seemed to be doing what he could so she
went back to looking around for anything that was obviously
strange or our of place.

The man blinks in confusion both as his wounds are healed and
he’s given permission to touch -- but not speak to -- Pheobus.
He’s wearing a cowboy hat, some cowboy boots, a button-down
flannel shirt tucked into his belted jeans. There’s bloodstains
on the jeans and stares slack-jawed at the rockstar.

Nobody was going to BELIEVE this!
Meanwhile, Jenessa finds signs of a struggle everywhere. Knocked
over lamps, blood stains on the hardwood floor and varnished
walls, the shattered bulbs in every light-fixture and blown-in
windows. Something must have come through here, used some kind
of magic, and done a bunch of damage before moving onward.
Eve
I don’t know how this Sovereign Art works, but watching the Bard
I figure it out really quickly.
“You can talk to me, Dean,” I say, moving forward. “And you can
touch me.”
“...what?” he says, his tongue finally loosened by the magic.
“What is going ON?”
Pause.
“Wait I can touch you?” he says, a big smile splaying across his
face.
I facepalm. I help him to his feet. “Yeah sure, just tell me
what happened here,” I say.
“I-- I don’t know,” he says. “All the lights started to flicker
and when I came downstairs this was this chick standing there.
She beat the shit out of Sammy and I,” he swallows. “And then
when I blinked she was just gone.”
