1)Most people did not.
Thats what painkillers are for.
Daniel's judgement has been shown to be rather poor wanting to go on a suicide mission in the NeverNever just for the sake of power, I wouldn't leave it up to him. It should be discussed with his parents as well this does effect them and the household if one of their kids gets their humanity revoked without warning.
Well, I have a feeling that this will simply come down to no, because if Charity has a choice, she will block any participation of Daniel in any actions. Which could cause his not-so-reasonable judgment to flare up and he would go on a quest to find a power that doesn't depend on changes in the type of existence or MOlly's help.
We'd seriously alienate her at least by doing so without talking about it beforehand though. I don't think we can afford to if we care about Molly's relationship with Charity. Daniel is already getting training too so it probably isn't worth going behind her back just to give him an upgrade when he's already getting stronger.
Daniel is canonically an Afghanistan veteran as of the events of Ghost Story, and was actively involved in the Chicago Alliance until Dresden returned from the dead.
Training is not enough for what?
To bring him at least to a level where he can be half as useful as Lydia. At least it seems so to me
Again we are already working on that as it was addressed. He's training in the Five Courts to build character, skill and gain power. He didn't have any avenues for power before which is a good reason why he planned to fuck off into parts unknown.
Neither are any of the Amethyst order. The benchmark is more useful enough.
Hmm, I agree. But then it must be integrated into the plan. However, I won't talk about Daniel anymore. I would prefer to discuss this in more detail when it is specifically about him, and not about Olivia.
Please dont describe my raising IC concerns as fearmongering.
Formarchs are unique supermonsters, meant to be trouble for a full pack of Werewolves.
Mostly we want him strong enough that if he sees evil happening in front of him*. He isn't helpless to act. We don't even need to talk about bringing him on missions for a long time or maybe ever. Molly scale threats are a whole other level.
Thats a misinterpretation of how they are described.
Its explicitly a new process thats (trying to) advance towards making fomarch breeds.W20 Book of the Wyrm p140 said:
He is there because he threw a teenage fit of inadequacy, his girlfriend chose to indulge him and the voterbase voted to give him training over risking him doing dumb teenager shit and creating problems for us.
No, actually.
Fully agreed, especially because there is a solar exaltation available, and it is possible to game the system, and yes, I am willing to invest AP into it. We should at least try to get him that power up, he's one of the few people we can be certain or near certain would be able to handle it.
I am planning to see how we can maximize the chances of him receiving Dawn caste exaltation. He is a good enough fit that expending effort on that is a good idea.
Getting the ability to use Demon Chi and the potential for absurd powers via Disciplines you have to spend XP on is reasonable to me.
