Green Flame Rising (Exalted vs Dresden Files)

That's a bit of an overreaction, isn't it? The reason for them not publishing their knowledge is logically the reasons presented below:


Simple, logical and no disaster that fundamentally impacts Molly.
Yeah, but it's meant to focus more on the big picture. The 3 examples I put at the start are all things that Molly has personally seen and been upset by over the course of the quest, and they all stem from the same root of the Masquerade, which is also the reason for this latest annoyance. My write-in is about this being, if not the straw that broke the camel's back, than the one that got the camel thinking about kicking the guy who keeps putting more on.
 
Though you do your best to explain why that is not the best perspective somehow you find yourself pulling up to Harry's place deep into explaining the negative effects of burning fossil instead of why property damage and corporeal punishment are not the best way to solve traffic violations.
That's simple to explain, it's because she wrong about the best way to solve traffic disputes. :V
which only makes the spark of mischief in those bright green eyes get even brighter.
Lash has probably been messing with him since they got home, and will continue to do so till it transitions into "old married couple bickering".

In short; he's doomed.
 
Mostly they can't release their findings and have them taken seriously unless they can actually prove them accurate by mundane means.

If you can't actually prove it correct then academia has no reason to take your claimed translation more seriously than any of thousands of other claimed translations.

Of course even if they could they might not want to. Wizards like secrets, but that is another topic. Mostly that sharing with the mundane world would be a huge amount of work and they are unsure that they actually want to.
Not being a linguist, I am honestly unsure how verifiable translation systems are. I would assume that if a massive corpus of texts exists, then verifying a translation system via some manner of internal consistency and adequacy checks would be possible. It would strongly depend on whether actual archaeological material exists.

There's a somewhat similar real-life story of discovery, actually. Prof. Knorozov, a USSR scientist, led a revolution in deciphering mayan language, resulting in its near-complete understanding by modern scholars, all without ever setting foot in any of the ruins.

If the wizards wanted, it would definitely be possible to disseminate this knowledge.

Hell, if wizards really wanted they could fake some brand new rossetta stones for various languages and let them be found by various actual archeologists.

Deep take, Ea Nasir never existed. Wizards made up his shitty copper business to secretly give regular people the needed hints to translate cuneiform. No real person would horde complaint letters like that.

Yep, that is the 'they could have faked it with magic'. What she suspects is actually happening (and keep in mind this is just a guess informed by among other things her biases) is something like this:
  1. Wizard either possesses lost language or rediscovers it, this language has a personal or professional value to them
  2. Original wizard dies, their notes pass on to the White Council as an institution
  3. The council now has these notes in the context of whatever magic was done with them
  4. Notes are filed under the same level of secrecy as the magic, so if Linear A happened to be earthquake magic and summoning the god of Island sinking too bad
 
[X] Frustration, they are gatekeeping entire fields of historical study. They should use magic to make up and excuse
-[X] Or release this anonymously.

Honestly, as long as they are willing to forgo credit, it should be quite easy to proliferate this anonymously.
Without mundane proof it doesn't matter. I'd be surprised if there were no speculative attempts to translate whatever languages they have already, and academics won't get out of bed for the most detailed analysis in the world if the source is "trust me bro".

This is annoying, but as much as it would enrich the world to have this stuff the lack isn't truly harming anyone.

And really, is this where we'd want them focusing their energies anyway? They have a lot of way higher priority items to put wizard time on than this.

What an investment roll. It's too bad it's basically pass/fail.

The appropriate response to a gift, and a rare and expensive one at that which the giver went to the risk of official friction to obtain, is gratitude. Not criticism.
Frustration just makes you look like an ass.

Its been less than five hundred years since it was accepted practice for European nobility to eat Egyptian mummies, leading to widespread looting of tombs and antiquities
www.smithsonianmag.com

The Gruesome History of Eating Corpses as Medicine

The question was not “Should you eat human flesh?” says one historian, but, “What sort of flesh should you eat?”

And even today, looting of antiquities remains a major issue.
Its entirely reasonable for long-lived wizards to exercise some reluctance about oversharing knowledge pertaining to old shit too quickly. Especially if some of this pertains to magic.

I have a question.

So the main problem for humans in getting into supernatural stuff, or just plain human plus stuff, is the fact that they produce faith but have no inherent ways to actually use it or even gather it as all of their faith is basically "output". Getting anywhere either needs just plain luck or a lot of work on enlightenment, or stealing it by murdering supernatural creatures or other people if you know the right rituals.

Now Demon the Fallen, and Tiffany, is basically the opposite - she can gather faith, use it, invest it and so on but can't produce any herself. And, which is very important, she can give traits that she possesses as a part of the deal. Strength, intelligence, supernatural powers, including those inherent seemingly to her nature as piece of Fallen Angel.

Does it mean she can turn one of the faith points a human has in a faith receiver and turn the recipient into a shonen protagonist/villain? As in powered by faith in themself and getting stronger as their determination and circle of friends/minions grows?

No. She isn't vampire, solar(kinda, in ExWod they could awaken forcibly people into mages) or mage with Spirit 9.
Kinda yes, if she and Molly figure out how to turn Demon the Fallen from splat about possesed(kinda, original person isn't really exist after possession) humans into humans with additional soul stuff without subsuming one or both persons(human plus vits if angels) into some abomination.

Your chain of reasoning here is faulty.

Firstly faith potential has nothing to do with magical ability or anything else, as the DtF book lays out. A wizard can have less faith potential than a priest, and praying to something wouldn't implicitly reduce their powers. It isn't a main blocker of anything.

Magical ability is something it's just hard to break into unless you're lucky enough to be born with a talent for, and even then you have to put in some really work for it. Which is especially hard if your area of focus happens to be something you can't support yourself with.

All of that is mostly independent of what Lash can do, but given the ruling that she can only give up to 3 dot merits in mundane properties I'd assume she can't make people faith powered.

The question is verification, yes. But the proof is in translations, I believe. Now, the question is - do mundane texts in these languages exist? If yes, and there's a number of them, then releasing the translation method + several translations would be proof enough, I believe. At least to get the foot in the door.
What we need to do is arm and organize a security team. We keep adding fixed defenses and then expecting our ghouls to defend the place with their piddly claws.
4)No to Porter's new trainset, at least not yet. We have spent the last five or six months bringing Last Station back to life as he requested. Given the timescales on which he lives, we dont have to jump into the train immediately.
Next month, or the month after.
A compromise, hopefully doable as free action - import some dinosaur corpses (we don't even need to bother our subjects, just materialize somewhere in the forests where there are dead dinos), have Lydia reanimate them via Command the Dead, and subordinate them to Porter. Plus give weapons and armor to a security team from among "core" Jade Dogs. Do the train thing next month, and secure NeverNever this month. Depending on how much we can delay Harvard action ( @DragonParadox any comments here? We are clearly not following normal application procedure. What is the month by which we have to decide / spend AP on this?), either do Harvard, or do Cauldron protection (god crafting or some other way) now. This way we improve security of Last Station, and Cauldron members.

No, Lash is probably the closest* anyone can come to just gifting minor magical talent, but still the mortal would not have the fine control to anything with the ability beside what has been hard wired in. It is like she hands out path magic spells with only one outlet instead of a broad field of magic.

*well closest bar one that you guys know of OOC. VEE can grant the True Faith Merit and that is the start of a path. :V

You've still got a whole semester ahead of you before you have to put in the application. That said if you want to move in and fill the void you might want to do it sooner rather than later. The players in the surrounding area, and even some farther afield, will see the potential of the place.
 
You know... Thinking of publishing scientific papers...

What sort of skill check would that be? I think we could produce sufficiently good sounding justification that our work could be seen as a natural product of science especially if the fact that we are correct is independently verifiable such as new material being translatable.

A lot of that stuff, as far as I understand it, is either fragmentary or missing some context. It's a lot more likely that someone made a fake that fits some select samples and doesn't immediately fail against what little other data exists than that someone figured out a way to do something widely regarded as full stop impossible.

Even if it did get looked over it'd just make the people most likely to do so rabidly obsessed with the how. Because someone either has the receipts for the translations available or jailbroke linguistics. They'd be more focused on that than using what they had, because it's the foundation they'd be trusting their work to by accepting it and could be amazingly useful itself.

Academics would at least be involved at some step, and our 1 dot isn't that helpful here.

This isn't a math problem either, you don't just work out a language without some sort of h starting point. That's why the Rosetta Stone was so important.

These languages are untranslatable because no one has a point of reference to work from. If we tried faking a paper on this it'd come out reading like that time cube conspiracy website.

I'll quotethis part of Knorozov's biography:
Knorozov further improved his decipherment technique in his 1963 monograph "The Writing of the Maya Indians"[1][9] and published translations of Mayan manuscripts in his 1975 work "Maya Hieroglyphic Manuscripts".[25]

During the 1960s, other Mayanists and researchers began to expand upon Knorozov's ideas. Their further field-work and examination of the extant inscriptions began to indicate that actual Maya history was recorded in the stelae inscriptions, and not just calendric and astronomical information. The Russian-born but American-resident scholar Tatiana Proskouriakoff was foremost in this work, eventually convincing Thompson and other doubters that historical events were recorded in the script.[26]

Other early supporters of the phonetic approach championed by Knorozov included Michael D. Coe and David Kelley, and whilst initially they were in a clear minority, more and more supporters came to this view as further evidence and research progressed.[18]

Through the rest of the decade and into the next, Proskouriakoff and others continued to develop the theme, and using Knorozov's results and other approaches began to piece together some decipherments of the script. A major breakthrough came during the first round table or Mesa Redonda conference at the Maya site of Palenque in 1973, when using the syllabic approach those present (mostly) deciphered what turned out to be a list of former rulers of that particular Maya city-state.[27]

Subsequent decades saw many further such advances, to the point now where quite a significant portion of the surviving inscriptions can be read. Most Mayanists and accounts of the decipherment history apportion much of the credit to the impetus and insight provided by Knorozov's contributions, to a man who had been able to make important contributions to the understanding of this distant, ancient civilisation. In retrospect, Prof. Coe writes that "Yuri Knorozov, a man who was far removed from the Western scientific establishment and who, prior to the late 1980s, never saw a Mayan ruin nor touch a real Mayan inscription, had nevertheless, against all odds, "made possible the modern decipherment of Maya hieroglyphic writing."[18]
For context, Knorozov was a soviet scientist, and, at the time, not acknowledged as one of the greats to whom a lot of stuff was allowed. He has never been to Mexico, and in fact has never left Russia. He has not participated in international conferences. He communicated via mail with the journals he published in. He encountered harsh criticism for going against established paradigm from the established masters of the field:
Upon the publication of this work from a then hardly known scholar, Knorozov and his thesis came under some severe and at times dismissive criticism. J. Eric S. Thompson, the noted British scholar regarded by most as the leading Mayanist of his day, led the attack. Thompson's views at that time were solidly anti-phonetic, and his own large body of detailed research had already fleshed-out a view that the Maya inscriptions did not record their actual history, and that the glyphs were founded on ideographic principles. His view was the prevailing one in the field, and many other scholars followed suit.[8]

According to Michael Coe, "during Thompson's lifetime, it was a rare Maya scholar who dared to contradict" him on the value of Knorozov's contributions or on most other questions. As a result, decipherment of Maya scripts took much longer than their Egyptian or Hittite counterparts and could only take off after Thompson's demise in 1975.[18]

The situation was further complicated by Knorozov's paper appearing during the height of the Cold War, and many were able to dismiss his paper as being founded on misguided Marxist-Leninist ideology and polemic. Indeed, in keeping with the mandatory practices of the time, Knorozov's paper was prefaced by a foreword written by the journal's editor which contained digressions and propagandist comments extolling the State-sponsored approach by which Knorozov had succeeded where Western scholarship had failed. However, despite claims to the contrary by several of Knorozov's detractors, Knorozov himself never did include such polemic in his writings.[8]
And yet, it still worked, because others tested his theories and they worked. If I understand it correctly, this codex is much more comprehensive. You could, in fact, publish the findings, and attribute parts produced by divination to "it came to me in a dream". If it works, it works. The question is whether there's enough material to test it. If there is, it'll get verified. If there isn't, it's not really relevant at all (like how you can't publish about ancient Russian pagan religion because there are no primary sources remaining at all - it has all been completely lost to history).

You've still got a whole semester ahead of you before you have to put in the application. That said if you want to move in and fill the void you might want to do it sooner rather than later. The players in the surrounding area, and even some farther afield, will see the potential of the place.
Ok, can someone from USA explain to me how college admissions work there? Because the timeline on their site is a bit (a lot) confusing:
You may apply to Harvard under either our Restrictive Early Action or our Regular Decision program, both of which allow you to compare admission and financial aid offers from other institutions and to wait until May 1 to make a final college choice.
  • Restrictive Early Action candidates apply by November 1 and receive notification by mid-December.
  • Regular Decision candidates apply by January 1 and receive notification by the end of March.
You are welcome to apply to Harvard using the Common Application which opens August 1, or the Coalition Application, Powered by Scoir, which opens August 15.
If this is correct, we have missed normal application times, but there are somethings called Common Application and Coalition Application which will open much later? How does this work?

Anyway, if we can apply later (after blatantly breaking SAT via dice adjusters and cheating - I am not above using the crown on the test to score perfectly), that's great. Then we delay Harvard one month, and start expanding there next month. Use this turn to protect Cauldron members.
 
So I miss two chapters and @uju32 starts discussing dog daemonhosts and @Yog starts doomposting about us suffering mass casualty events? :V

The underlined errors in the previous two chapters are in order of reading:

1) To Taste Good Cheer:

Fingers run nervously over the warm brass of the cross, warm in comparison at least you stop on the sidewalk, letting the wind send ripples though the folds of grey petticoat, the emerald green dress. The red sash makes it Christmas-y, but brass and green are yours in some way that words cannot quite fit. For just a moment it feels strange to bring them into the House of the Lord, but no, they aren't any stranger than the rest of them Deftly you take out four cloudy plastic containers filled with cookies, perfect as the rays of the winter sun hits them in size in shape in smell of spices and honey and hot coco by the fire.

least, you not least you

size, in shape, in not size in shape in

At this Jackie stirs, pale grey eyes darting to her mother's face under a from under soft auburn bangs. She had not been expecting that answer anymore than you had.

Surprised or no you can work with it, motioning to the cookies: "Want one? I made some Christmas cookies and I could use an opinion from someone who isn't too used to my cooking to give constructive criticism". Normally you would avoid bald-faced lies in church, but since it's in the service of delicious Christmas treats and peace on earth, or at least peace in the neighborhood you think God will understand.

In each box was a hefty number of what had started as from scratch sugar cookies in a variety of shapes. In making them you'd gotten a little lost in memory though; snowball fights, 'helping' baby Daniel open his first Christmas presents, the cold nipping at your nose singing along to songs you did not quite know all the verses too, just following Mom along. Maybe something of that had gotten into the cookies, stranger things had happened after all. Or maybe they are just really good cookies. Either way Mrs Evens polishes one off almost instantly and asks incredulously: "You made these, on your own?"

under soft not under a from under soft

neighborhood, you not neighborhood you

from scratch sugar cookies is wrong for English syntax in this sentence. Try something like homemade/handmade sugar cookies.

"Grab one for yourself, grab two," you say conspiratorially. "It is what they are fore."

For not fore.

"You know we still have a tree house, used to be fun up there, but now I left it tot he little kids..."

to the not tot he

"OK guys, we are heading off again. Thank Mr Russel," you say very loudly to make sure it gets to the back.

Mr. not Mr

2) Feast of Far off Lands:

There is a lot more green than red in the lights that shine over the Last Station, plastic trees cast sharp-edged shadows over faces not quite human: here a Sarah swallows a rib whole, mouth distending her jaw in improbable ways, there Jack stretches like a a cat in the sun as the TV plays Silent Night, Deadly Night to a mixed audience of ghouls and humans... a lot of humans, a lot of humans you have not seen before. You take another look around and everywhere you look an unfamiliar face, many of them young, too thin solemn expressions as they quietly watch the food being served.

What's a Sarah? Because it's Sarah not a Sarah unless Dresden Files has some supernatural Yenta running around in the background.

thin, solemn not thin solemn

The pudding, more akin to more akin to chinese almond jelly really as far as the taste goes according to Augustus who has the most experienced palette present, does not have any dinosaurs in it, but there's no arguing with kids, empress or no.

For doing the work, either Academics (for humanities), Science (for hard sciences), or Technology (for applied sciences):
Academics
This catchall Knowledge covers the character's eru-
dition in the humanities: literature, history, art, phi-
losophy, and other "liberal" arts and sciences. A char-
acter with dots in Academics is generally well rounded
in these fields, and at high levels may be considered an
expert in one or more areas of study. Not only can this
Knowledge impress at salons and other Elysium func-
tions, but it can also offer valuable clues to certain past
— and future — movements in the Jyhad. If you like,
you can choose a specialty for Academics even at less
than 4 dots.
• Student: You're aware that 1066 isn't a Beverly Hills area code.
•• College: You can quote from the classics, identify major cultural movements, and expound on the difference between Ming and Moghul.
••• Masters: You could get a paper published in a scholarly journal.
•••• Doctorate: Professor emeritus
••••• Scholar: Scholars worldwide acknowledge you as one of the foremost experts of your time.
Possessed by: Professors, Literati, Topical Bloggers, Elders
Science
You have at least a basic understanding of most of the
physical sciences, such as chemistry, biology, physics,
and geology. This Knowledge can be put to all forms
of practical use. In most cases, a player should select a
specialty to reflect a focus for her character's scientific
studies, but this isn't strictly necessary.
• Student: You know most of the high-
school basics.
•• College: You're familiar with the
major theories.
••• Masters: You could teach high-school
science.
•••• Doctorate: You're fully capable of
advancing the knowledge in your field.
••••• Scholar: Your Nobel Prize is waiting
for you.
Possessed by: Scientists, Students, Researchers,
Teachers, Engineers, Technicians, Pilots
Specialties: Chemistry, Biology, Geology, Physics,
Astronomy
For writing the paper, that would normally be expression, I think:
Expression
This is your ability to get your point across clearly,
whether through conversation, poetry, or even in 140
characters or fewer. Characters with high Expression
can phrase their opinions or beliefs in a manner that
cannot be ignored (even if their opinions are misin-
formed or worthless). They might also be talented ac-
tors, skilled at conveying moods or communicating
emotion with every gesture. Additionally, this Talent
represents your ability for poetry, creative writing, or
other literary art forms. For many elders, Expression
is the subtle art of crafting a satirical epigram capable
of socially crippling one's longtime rival. For younger
Kindred, Expression may well be the key to convinc-
ing thirty stake-wielding Anarchs to converge on the
Sheriff's private hunting ground with the right text
message. You can choose a specialty in Expression,
even at less than 4 dots.
• Novice: Your talent has matured past
crude poetry on notebook paper.
•• Practiced: You could lead a college
debate team.
••• Competent: You could be a successful
writer.
•••• Expert: Your work is Pulitzer material.
••••• Master: Steve Jobs asks you for input
on his next mobile device.
Possessed by: Actors, Writers, Poets, Politicians,
Journalists, Web Personalities, Rabble-Rousers
Specialties: Acting, Poetry, Fiction, Impromptu,
Conversation, Social Media
You could probably substitute Expression for Academics, Science or Technology on many of the rolls when making the paper itself.
So I miss two chapters and @uju32 starts discussing dog daemonhosts and @Yog starts doomposting about us suffering mass casualty events? :V
I don't think I am quite at doomposting level yet, but yeah, Last Station is not hard enough of a target for me to feel safe, given the amount of ire from powerful forces we have drawn.
 
If this is correct, we have missed normal application times, but there are somethings called Common Application and Coalition Application which will open much later? How does this work?
Restrictive early action is an option you use to apply to your first choice school. You can only use it to apply to one school early.

Common Application and Coalition Application are two different submission methods/profiles you can use to apply to a school during the regular application process.

Applying early is wonderful because if you get in then you don't need to bother sending out any other applications. Molly hasn't missed any sort of deadline here, plenty of people get into Harvard through the regular application process, let alone superpowered wonderkids who can absolutely steamroll an interview.
