"now would be as good a time as any to take your own fate into your hands you know, instead of crying like that, you could actually go where I told you to look"
(Also, point of order, the Head Wizard of the Society of Wizards would not feel confident about his success going head-to-head with a youngling dragon. Just so we're clear.)
(My point is that this is not a confrontation that you want to become physical. I will happily TPK if you provoke a dragon into open combat. So... Initiative for social combat seems appropriate at this juncture.)
Yep. Sanguine is firmly on the side of the dragon.
So, the scene. Social combat, dragon on the hill, with a readied oven. The princess is next to him, and the blind oracle is some ways down the hill, but in easy conversation distance. Sanguine is sneaking around behind the hill.
(There is a easy way to defuse this in narrative, BTW, and that's let the cake be baked. Its our call of PvP or no PvP and I'll back your decision either way)
@trogdor This is your choice. Apologize, back down, give Sang some sign of allegiance, something to keep the dragon from deciding to eat you both because it's easier.
@trogdor She's backing the dragon, cause the dragon owes her a favour. If you show that you can find where her objective is, she'll try to intercede on your behalf. Many options. Do you want this to be a conflict to show that you're stronger in will than the dragon?
@trogdor Yep. But this means we don't have to both be here for the next scene, but we can be. That way there's options open.
I think it's only polite, given the structure of this game. And I'll try to find some improv resources, cause this is a little more open-improv than most games. The basic assumptions of "party to support" don't hold.
...Hm. Yes, I shall make the dragon a beast stat-wise.
Stunt: Because I am a dragon, I have two extra stress boxes. Stunt: Because I am a dragon, I have a second mild consequence slot that can only be used to reduce physical stress. Stunt: Because I am a dragon, once per game session I can clear a mild consequence as a free action.
I also figured out that I would have independent windows for individual chats. Yey!
But I have to re-open all windows except the main one every time I start up.
Boo.
But yeah, I think a "typing" indicator is a must, if it's feasible. Maybe not for the MVP, but ASAP after.
For the narrative priority token... maybe something generic like the ability to highlight a particular player or something? So it can be used for other things too.
