Im sure its not possible to ward an estate to withstand nuke equivalents.
Is that something dream magic can do?
We are well past the point where anybody that would be bothered by exposure would even be able to consider coming after Molly.
Thats just incredible hubris.
Depending on your read of the interaction between Private Idaho and the location splendors it might be possible to design a splendor that rips anyone in a certain range of it into an extradimensional panic room if a powerful AoE effect enters the same space.
The IRS doesn't really care about unexplained income, as long as it's not unreported income. Include all your drug money on your return as "other income", and you're good.
Extradimensional panic room to evac people in danger? Sure. Sounds interesting, and something to investigate.
Thats what I mean.
Yes, in a far more limited fashion:
I still think that raising her bilingual, where one of the languages is Primordial is a good idea for mental development. This should be the most comprehensive / complex language in existence, best for describing complex things human brains struggle with. It should give her significant boosts, and not just in magical development (which we know it will do).As an aside, Amanda is going to have such a weird childhood. Her Mom is actually magic and can send her good dreams*. The babysitters are cyborgs, her dogs all have super powers, and all the cool electronics talk back.
If she goes to Sunday school and someone mentions the Trinity even odds she'll go, "Oh! Like Auntie?".
Addams Family level weird, but magical cyberpunk.
We've talked about it before, but it's worth appreciating that even if we aren't actively working to get her power of her own the passive strangeness around here will be off the charts.
* Even odds that Rosie is a master sorcerer by the time Amanda can talk, meaning she could do some considerable but very subtle bullshit. I'm still hoping she'll be able to "program" daydream style hallucinations to add new software to her brain via rituals. Perfect memory, enhanced reflexes or redirected processing power, all sorts of neat software additions to side load into her brain to grant herself implausible competence at all sorts of things.
I'm sorry if this sound dismissive or like, but... Are you serious? Genuinly curious, I see merit but something makes me think you're suggesting it for laughs.
I am perfectly serious? Like, we actually have confirmation in story that being a native speaker of Primordial Language (the one that we use via SCCP) gives mortal people serious occult advantages:
Also, very silly question but if we used SCCP on Amanda would her random baby screeches that you need to guess on solutions for come out as something understandable?
Do babies count as not sharing a language or not (yet) being capable of using them?
I assume that there would also be in-story mental development effects, but overall this sounds like a non-evil and seriously intriguing plot thread to follow, with interesting in-story consequences. Babies usually start speaking their first words in the ages between 10 and 14 months, so we should be able to see this in-quest too.

I'm unsure of which version and we tend to kind of picking pull from both when picking out rituals for using but either way if she becomes a master or a grand master at her craft she is capable of doing the walking living dream thing so lets be inspirational.Sorcerer Paths of Power said:
That only gets people who are willing to sell, and changes the character of the neighborhood besides.
Rosie is almost definitely a Spanish speaker; bilingual is already covered.
Picking languages for your kid to learn young is one of the most basic early life responsibilities of a parent. Nobody picks their first languages, and every immigrant parent anywhere on earth has picked at least one for their children based on what they think will be most useful for them.
Im multilingual. Im quite familiar with the process.
Man I completely forgot about this. I believe that was after we got held in place by Outsiders twice. Going back through old post you come across a lot of abandoned plans/ideas.
The problem is that there is a qualitative difference between learning a language (and Primordial is a language) as an infant, and as an adult. Would you agree to spending an AP studying / checking child development (full on bonuses applied) to determine the possible effects? Consult Lash, who has high science and academics, and Lore of Flesh (which should apply on at least some level) at 5, do an occult study and spend some crown questions to develop the best possible child rearing regime? This seems like a purely good option.
I'm not going to vote to teach Amanda this, because besides thinking it's an exaggeration that won't have an effect on the quest time, I'm almost certain, considering your votes, that you'll use this victory as an excuse to try to spread the knowledge to all humanity later and I have zero interest in it
I think this might be a bit facetious or very least not quite right because charity full-on had magic and now it does not anymore. Speaking a language no matter how powerful language it is isn't the same as I was a full-on wizard tier talent and now I am not anymore. Unless you're going to compare knowing a language to being a full wizard then I'm going to say it's not that serious no matter how well it predisposes someone to the supernatural.
It is just a language it's a non-human language that is perfectly descriptive but to be frank other than helping her development like any other language would and helping her occult leanings it would affect her development in any other way it's not a mind virus or a spell it's a language. If knowing a language was enough to awake a full wizard Harrowmont would have been one.
Okay, that's a rather derogatory way to say that. Yog has leadings that don't just arbitrarily hog the knowledge that we're not using that people are looking for. This tendency to just say no we know things and we're just never going to tell anyone just because is horseshit it is literally exalted Behavior and wizard Behavior the worst kind of exalted Behavior Dragon blooded Behavior too. Oh they don't need to know the information that they devoted their lives to finding we can just never tell them or never even give a hint or just silently put the information out there even if nothing ever comes from it it's good that they have it.
