    Remember that this will be the first play-test of the 2E changes.
    Please declare if Armor is 1E or 2E, but remember that Weapon, Armor, and Dodge 'mods' apply regardless.
    Also included is a poll to try to save some time determining format rather than doing it wholly IC.

    Figure a week of voting/greeting should let Orianna/Faye slide in with her return.


    The agreed upon morning has arrived for those of Sacramento wishing to hone their martial skills.

    Stained glass butterflies surround Tuesday, each pane on their tiny wings glows a verity of iridescent hues, while showing glimpses of what was, what is, and what will be. When vulgar magic is cast, the fluttering cascade doesn't last, they shatter. Falling into dull, colorless dust before vanishing completely.

    Well look at this. Unicorn be early.

    ...or was everyone else late?

    Since, you know, Acanthus.

    Unlike last time she wasn't gonna wait to buff. That shit took to effing looong. So yep. Magic-time. She might have jazz hands there, just because.

    Silver d20 lands in her hand as she forms a fate-blue glyph, a favorite spell, the lines of perfict and precise. The colored glass butterflies flutter and shatter, but Tuesday smiles because Luck and good vibes threads through her pattern, and she doesn't have to swallow the oily-Abyssal-ick.

    Since this was about learning and stuffs Tuesday doesn't reach for the subtle threads of Fate to weave around herself to act as a Shield and Sight, but Acadia's sister energy. Two golden glyphs spark one after the other, dissolving around her as soon as she feels it's magic-hug-of-shieldy-awesomeness, and the Time Goggle lenses click-slip into place.

    She debates slipping her brass knuckles on, but settles on no. At least for now. She's gotten quick with 'em and was confidant that when shit got real she'd have 'em where they should totally be, ready to be an awesome weapon of bludgeoning glory.

    Now all she had to do was wait.

    Which was a weird feeling. Since. Acanthus.

    Campanella arrives in a track suit and sneakers that have a certain... barely used... look about them. Too crisp and shiny by far. He is carrying an equally fresh looking duffle bag. Has the Moros Councillor taken up fitness classes? Maybe ignore the slight sheen of sweat to his brow - mentally he's had enough of a workout already.

    Before he even got there! Who would have thought rotes could be so difficult to master?

    He spends a few moments taking in the view. His experiences with the Mind Arcanum were few and he still found the impressions he received with the Sight strange and unearthly. The play of mana and base matter he was used to; emotional stains and psychic imprints... he was not.

    At least he would not be alone with his thoughts.

    He made his way over to Tuesday.

    "Hello there."

    It takes a manly man to own this many shades of purple.

    Or at least an oblivious one to wear them. Rupublican Jack's hair was still growing out and he smelled of indie coffee house when he showed up. Hanging out all night smoking hookah, drinking kafe, and listening to Spoken Words. The things a Guardian has to do to stay on top of the city's pulse. As always, the ratty nylon backpack accompanied him. If anyone was wondering what this guy needed for Christmas. Maybe, just maybe.

    "Tuuuuueeeeeesdaaaaay!"
    Long fingers waggled as he walked over.

    "And Campanella. Hello."
    The finger bobbed up in a 'Wait' gesture. "I just realized. We have the Consilium glues here. That must be why...," he gave he unicorn a hip bump, "...I'm stuck on you."

    The most painful part of today might be the jokes. Blame the coffee house.

    "But, no, seriously. What kind of glue? Gorilla? Krazy? Elmer's?"

    "I thought we'd play this game somewhere else."

    The man is wearing a white tank top, blue jeans and grey sneakers. His hair, instead of the usual dreadlocks is now arranged neatly in a single braid that drops to the middle of his back. At least to himself, he looks like one of those street thugs of Oak Park. Matches the circumstance.

    "Hey there Tuesday, Star, Campanella." His sight aims at each of them as he speaks out their name. "What a nice weather to beat each other senselessly, huh?"

    With snap of fingers, the Obrimos raises his armor and turns his sixth sense on. Forces and Prime, respectively.

    The Archangel was suddenly surrounded by a kinectic force field. He wasn't sure if he could cast under the pressure of a fight, so, better tobe prepared. Anything aimed at him (except for anything not physical in nature) would have to pierce through this protection to hit him.

    "So... Who's against who?"

    Despite his readiness, Michael wasn't comfortable at all. He was there because he needed so. Even a pacifist has to fight sometimes.

    Bolide had mixed feelings about today. On one hand he wasn't the best fighter to be going into a sparring session that would undoubtedly draw the attention of the Arrows. On the other hand it was now or in the face of a hoard of zombies. Something told the Apostate he'd suffer either way, but this was undoubtedly the nicer chance to get his feet wet.

    The Theurgist entered the Circle in basically the same attire he had worn to Concilium. Boots, jeans, a t shirt, and his magic hoodie jacket combo. This time however, both pockets of the hoodie and the leather jacket held bottles of water. As he entered the Circle the golden glyphs of his Sight and Shield were willed into existence using the mana from his artifact, and obscured with mana from the same source.

    "Hey folks." Bolide said as his attention fell to the oddly dressed Councilor who Recognized him. He wasn't sure what to say about Star's outfit, but he knew he hadn't seen that much purple on one guy since the last time he was in Baltimore during football season.

    "So how does this work exactly?" His attention began to nervously meander across the group, looking for anyone who could fill the new guy in.

    Opting into 2E for Matter Armor but wasn't sure what to call it in the Dice roller. Also Bolide has cast 2 cloaked spells in scene, which if I remember correctly entitles people to rolls of Wits+Occult-1 and Wits+Occult-2 to notice him casting his sight and Armor respectively.

    A clean white and easily disposable shirt along with a set of ratty jeans and gym shoes are Thrope's choice of attire. If this is even close to Arrow training then the shirt won't be worth saving but no one notices blood in jeans after a few washes.

    Green glyphs form as will becomes Imago and is pushed onto the world. The first completes and unfurls then seeps into Thrope. Shortly after the second glyph forms with more life to it and fades as soon as it completes. Something twines into Thrope and he grins at the feeling. Life and Death mean so much more when you feel it. Everything else with a pulse or something like it becomes a ream of information known with only a glance.

    Hopefully no one will get stupid and try to get themself bled out.

    "Hey." a nod to Campanella.

    "Staaaaarrrr!" Tuesday calls back, snorting at his lines and hip bumping him back, "Cha-please. Crazy. Have some sense please." a silly unicorn grin.

    "Hello Archy." See this no full name. And a her rasp is a might bit frosty. The unicorn ignores the Archangel while planning on putting lizards in his things. She didn't know what things yet, but there would be lizards in them.

    To the pretty boy, "Last time we did this it was a free for all typed deal but since this a learning thing, it might be better one on one. Tuesday snorts at the Shaman, "Yeah....last time it got pretty bad. Fisher almost died, Avis was well. Yeah. It got pretty bloody."

    So yeah, maybe the free for all for this time was a bad idea. But Tuesday wanted the symmetry. Last time was a free for all, this time should be too.

    "Merr. Kay. Whatever. So we're just waiting on Avis and Faye?"

    "I believe so," Campanella stirred.

    "That doesn't mean we can't get something started." He looked around the little group. "Perhaps... Perhaps. Yes. If we split off into pairs... Yes, just like Tuesday has suggested. Uhm. We could reconvene afterward and talk shop. Or at least, compare notes?"

    He set his bag down.

    "Any preferences on pairings? I'd have thought for best effect that Tuesday and Star should not pair, given they are of the same Cabal... And - correct me if I was wrong - a number of us understand Matter... Perhaps we should not pair if we can help it. Maximise our exposure to different Arcanum in action...?"

    He added helpfully, his voice trailing away somewhat weakly.

    "Really? Like where? Golden One?"

    What a weird thing to think. Was there literally any better place than private property out in the middle of nowhere surrounded by tall stone walls? Not in this Guardian's book. Maybe Brother Topknot wanted his miracles out in the open so he could hand out bibles like the Gideons?

    "Annnnnnyway. Let's do this," as in Stop Over-Thinking Camper, "Pair off by whenever people joined the Consilium. Figure that'll even things out and probably pair people up experience wise. Soooooo. That's me and Crazy Glue, Bolero and Thrope, and then Camper and Micky. We'll do them one at a time so people can, like, offer suggestions."

    Guess that makes the Angel Super!Glue.
