Animus
Animus approaches discovery park. Taking heed of Undrichmann's warning, he begins to concentrate, forming an imago in his mind.
02-26 19:16:33 Animus rolls 7 dice to Sense Life 3 successes
2,10,9,10,1, 3,6,3,7
(restricted to humans)
He then begins to look around, hoping to find this Blackfire. _________________ Matthew Greene

Blackfire arrives now wearing his Leather Jacket.
He sees the man standing there and waves at him.

Blackfire nods when asked his name. He pulls out a cigarette but doesn't light it.

The parks certainly gives off an odd aura, though you can't quite place it. People seem to pull their coats a little tighter around them. Clueless people seem to wander around lost in their own minds. You notice one guy flipping a coin and drop it, only to have the coin bounce off the ground, into a fountain, and then bouncing to hit him in the face. A rather embarrassing moment. If you had to guess, no one had ever seen that happen before. _________________ ________________________

Animus

Animus' eyes narrow. I saw it alright." He activates spirit tongue, searching for any spirit activity, and whispers to his familiar, "Guardian, is there a locus here?"

The spirits here don't talk. At all. In fact, most of them seem to cower at the very idea of speaking to Animus. Even Animus's wolf spirit can't help be fearful, though he doesn't know of what, though he tells you he doesn't think there is a locus here, but there is definitely...something. _________________ ________________________

The fountain appears to be a normal fountain. No magical resonance, no life other than the normal microbes you would expect to find around something such as a fountain.
Your familiar communicates to you that there are certainly weird things he can see in the spirit world, but can't convey what it is because he has no idea what he's looking at. _________________ ________________________

Animus sighs. I guess I'll have to look for myself, then. He turns to Blackfire. "Whatever is causing this, it's made the spirits incredibly fearful." His voice drops to a whisper as he intones words in the Atlantean tongue.
((-2 gauntlet mod, +2 words of power, -1 contagion))
03-01 12:55:26 Animus rolls 5 dice to peer across the gauntlet Failure
7,5,5,3,3
But he is distracted by the other spells already working on his pattern. He takes a moment to regain his focus, repeats the words, and re-forms the Imago in his mind.
03-01 13:01:52 Animus rolls 4 dice to peer across the gauntlet Failure
2,1,5,4
But again the distraction proves too much. He begins again, his voice taking on a sharp edge of annoyance, as he backs the spell with the force of his will.
03-01 13:08:31 Animus rolls 6 dice to peer across the gauntlet (used WP) 1 success
7,4,8,5,4, 3
Finally Animus turns to Blackfire, more than a little flustered. "That was a lot harder than it should have been." As he says this, he scans the spirit realm, trying to see for himself what was so unusual.
03-01 13:20:50 Animus rolls 5 dice to Wits + Comp - 2 1 success

The park is a much different sight in the spirit realm. Though the spirits are there, there is NO "chatter". what catches your eye however, is a single, glowing stone bearing only the mark of the fate arcanum. The it happens.
I need a resolve + composure roll from both of you. _________________ ________________________

Though you can feel something tugging at the primal instincts of anger in the back of your minds, you easily shrug off the effects. Other people in the park however are not so lucky. Within seconds everyone seems to be fighting each other. None are spared from the effects, children and adults alike begin punching each other, fighting, yelling and screaming. Knives are pulled, guns are drawn, and in an instant there are no less than 4 people dead, including 2 children.
I need Animus to roll a wits + composure. _________________ ________________________

Animus' voice takes on a hint of anger. "We've got two stones in the spirit realm, one marked with a rune of fate, the other with a rune of mind. I can get us across the Gauntlet, but not quickly and not in the middle of that crowd." He looks around for somewhere that will be out of view of the sleepers. _________________ Matthew Greene

Animus notices that things that shouldn't happen do, like the coin bouncing several times to hit the guy in the eye, or someone tripping but instead of falling on their face does a cartwheel in a perfect martial arts move. These are the purview of fate, and this stone is clearly modifying the fate in this area. The reasons or origin are still unknown, but Animus is now curious to see how the Mind stone will affect the area. _________________ ________________________

Running late really wasn't his thing, but Fiddler had trouble finding the park.
Upon finding the park, it was clear to him that something strange was going on. He reflexively activated his mage sight, forming the Imago in his mind quickly:
"trailing the long stride" (space 1 mage sight):
Int+Occult+Space=7
03-02 12:51:47 Fiddler rolls 7 dice to Trailing the Long Stride 5 successes
9,1,9,7,6, 8,10,9
he then began to look around for Blackfire. _________________ Fiddler: Active Spells- Twisting Threads, Steel Trap, holding magic wand, mana =9/10, spell tolerance -1
