Hee hee hee! :)

Well, my group has an interesting character, which is basically a transformed
Edeinos who is now a Hospitaller and firm believer in the One True God (and
boy, you should've heard some of the debates he got into with the Dunad wor-
shipping Ayslish mage!).

But anyway, the boy has problems. The Cyberpapists consider him a Demon and 
want him dead for profaning the holy Cyberware... and the Edeinos consider him
the worst sort of abomination, as his very flesh is enmeshed with dead things.

And no one else seems to want to listen tto a preachy lizard :)

In what type of zone was this house located?  Unless it was Aysle
pure or diminant, I'd rule that using the LoObs is a long-range, and
then rolling against the Occult total would require (I assume) a
gross reality total, and probably lots of shock damage, so it's
unlikely the smartass would have stayed conscious.

Sounds like a decent kludge on your part, though.

	Hrm, yeah, but there comes a problem with that and miracles.  Our 
current version of 'faith' in a god is basically
[Religion-Game-I'm-Not-Slamming-Religion-Warning]
that of believing strongly in something which never really acts.  But in
higher Spirit-axiom cosms, they *do* do stuff, which changes the definition 
of faith here.

Yes, that's what Joe Louderback's character Alain did.  Except, as I
recall, one it happened on two different occasions, and one time I'm
pretty sure it was:

    disconnect->2ndCh->disconnect->2nd(3rd?)Ch->mediocre roll

Joe is the King of Disco.  We may just start calling him John
Travolta from now on (sorry, I couldn't help that one).  Anyway, if
anyone on the net is interested, our Charlottesville, VA, gaming
group is taking up a collection to buy Joe a white polyester leisure
suit, and y'all can send money to help out.  |)

	Well, it's been out a week, and I guess Ks Jim's too busy
to review it.  (I assume he bought it, since he buys _everything_. ;-)

	My players decided they wanted to go to the Cyberpapacy, and
so I was wondering if it was any good.
	(IMHO, this was a bad thing to do, considering the party makeup)
	A Gaean Gypsy Occultist/Spirit Medium 
	A Soviet Psi (in his words "a godless Communist")
	A Jewish Cowboy  
	A Aysle Sorceress
	an Athiet LAPD-er
	and a Protestant Wierd Scienist

	I finally came up with a name for the group.

	Kindling

The prologue to one of the early modules (either "Possibility Chalice"
or "Forbidden City") shows one of the CyberClergy sending a heretic's
soul to hell with the command "GOSUB HELL". Thus we see that the
official computer language of the CyberPapacy is BASIC. Use of any
other language is obvously heretical and should cease at once.

Heh. Right now, even *I* don't know what's gonna happen.
