Boring Sermon


Nyaa

Recommended Posts

Your parent either loved or hated you enough that they suggested STRONGLY for you go to the Temple of Iudocia over the weekend with your allowance at stake, for some good two hours long epically boring sermon talking about complicated genealogy of some long dead prophet mages. You took a seat at the corner furthest to the audience and make enough gesture for your parent's friends to know you are there.

 

Half an hour into the sermon where the preacher begin to retold the story of the savior Medeka, you become so dazed out that you fall off your seat! Everyone is wondering what is happening and are close to locating the source, what to do?

 

Unlock: Temple of Iudocia

 

Exit: Apologize and go back to your seat.

Success: How embarrassing! You heard some elderly murmur about how kids these days lack faith and discipline, which they are right because you fall asleep again within minutes. Snoring loudly enough to get booted out.

 

+1 Stress

-10 Parent Approval.

 

Failure: No failure.

 

Exit: Cleanse (Spell). Keep yourself awake with a spell.

Success: You apologize and go back to your seat, but you are still sleepy from the boring lecture, so you carefully cast the cleanse spell to refresh your mind long enough to survive the lecture.

 

Failure: You apologize and go back to your seat, but you are still sleepy from the boring lecture, so you quickly cast the cleanse spell to refresh your mind, but you messed up and your hand become very itchy. You spend the rest of the sermon rubbing your hand together and faking like you are praying when you make too much noise.

Pray. Pray to god for guidance!

Success: You prayed with all your heart and within your faithful devoted heart, you can feel a beautiful motion of lines circulating and titillating in a structured yet unrestricted action.

Beseech (Pheme). Repeat the beautiful motions you witnessed in your heart.

Success: Lights of miraculous warm fiddle around your hand like fairies dancing to your orchestral of love. Just when the preacher is about to say that magical casting by non-personnel in temple is forbidden, grand light of warmness shot out of the statue of Medeka and enveloped you in the glow of caring love. You feel that you are ready to perform the final phase of the motion in your heart.

Failure: No failure.

 

Exit: Remake (Spell). Release your symphony of faith!

Success: Everyone is awe at the sight of your brilliant grow of light dancing around you and the gentle waves of your hand like it exist to be there to comfort their painful souls. You on the other hand, feel great power rise within you, your mind become sharp and powerful, your body can endure the pain of the world, and your soul and take on the sin of world. Suddenly, demon's arise from the ground and trying to strike at you! But within the moment of impact, you are transferred to the local forest and you heard a voice, "you are not ready, but we have brought you time by erasing everyone's memories. Become strong and stay faithful until the year of Miinera."

 

You make a promise in your heart that you will be ready for the ultimate crusade in year five.

Added Ambush subskill.

 

Fantastic! There should be an Exit if you have the Spell Cleanse and Remake, too. smile.gif]

Wait, acquired spell can be use to solve event!?

 

I think some Religion SS options would be nice also for this.

Yeah, I am planning to make a exit for EVERY sub skill, so this will be a really long page.

This is not how you use Court Fashion... Court Fashion is how you dress. Etiquette is courtly behaviour.

 

Edit: Also, this idea of having every single subskill on an event is totally silly.

Okay, guess I will invest my time on something else after I finish this with a religion option and other obvious one.

 

Edit: Can't find data about remake spell, so I can't make that option.

Effect is that it push all your Attributes by 3 (Charm by 4) by lending a tiny fraction of the power of gods. It also have some minor downsides. (Right now its one of the most powerfull spells we can cast.)

Thanks for the help.
