Indeed it does, I have not gone over the sheet yet. Will handle soon
He also noticed / was affected by DPE, I think, if his reaction to us was any indication. So he's probably a creature of darkness. If his image is any indication, probably a half-red.Howard Hyde is clearly a supernatural being of some sort, otherwise he would not be able to wear a dark leather vest and leather trench coat in Summer without succumbing to heat stroke.
brainwashing occult drugs seems like a big problem.But, really, should we bring up Pathfinders? They are something that a legit government institution should be interested in - essentially a religious cult terrorist organization.
Harry pulls it off with enchantments, so it's possible he has one for that too.Howard Hyde is clearly a supernatural being of some sort, otherwise he would not be able to wear a dark leather vest and leather trench coat in Summer without succumbing to heat stroke.

Just checked, our social rolls against him were all DC7, so if he is a CoD, he has some serious difficulty adjusters to get it to DC9 before our charms kick in. But given that his own social roll was DC5, it's more likely he's not a CoD and just has a weaker difficulty adjuster to change it by 1 in either direction.He also noticed / was affected by DPE, I think, if his reaction to us was any indication.

That must have been fun for his oh-fuck-O-meter. Physically tangible auras like that are generally not a good sign in the Dresden Files.He seems to ave noticed the aura of unnatural cold since it only happened as he leaned in for a handshake and not as he laid eyes on Molly b
That's a little too much of our personal history I think, especially since it basically invites follow up questions.Fair
[X] Write in - Oh, god, they are... um... really really unprepaired to deal with basically, well, anything to do with the supernatural while mistakenly beliving they have a handle on it due to the tiny drop of power they have. I know. I was in the same place too. I got impaled on a spike of ice in Arctis Tor for it and now I am... well, you noticed the cold. Please, if you have that sort of authority, intervene. They should not go through what I did.

Yeah, but I want to humanize us and minimize our power and capability without actually lying about anything. It offers up a personal connection, but one I don't think can be readily used against us. It doesn't pit us as opposed to agents of the government while still having a valid reason to want those agents to be constrained.That must have been fun for his oh-fuck-O-meter.

For this initial conversation we should focus on Daedalus and the Library of Congress, and make him work for any answers from us.
This isn't the step for that yet. He's the representative of an organization, not someone we approached to make friends with. Minimizing ourselves is the same as minimizing our importance and the seriousness with which they should take us.Yeah, but I want to humanize us and minimize our power and capability without actually lying about anything.

Indeed. I'm not sure if we should discuss it right now, or later though.
[X] Yog[X] The fact that they tried to bug your car, probably illegally
[X] Explain Katrina and your suspicion that someone associated with her might be manipulating the FBI
-[X] DO NOT tell him about murdering anyone. At all. In general do not tell him anything that can be used against you in the court of law.
-[X] Explain how first the police was used against Dresden, and then the FBI.
[X] What is the Library of Congress' relationship with
-[X] ...the Catholic Church?
-[X] ...the White Council?
[X] When he says his organization destroys knowledge what does he mean?
[X] Are they open to collaboration? You are already writing that book with Bob after all, offering them a copy would cost you nothing.
[X] If they are a library, how do you get the library card for their occult section?
Part of me wondered if I could have bullshited my way out of Wright's little recruitment pitch.
That is indeed how we learned it.A small note here, you only know Daedalus was aware Harry was innocent because you hacked their internal communications. Do you want to reveal that? Or by contrast do you want to have that be Molly's suspicion of what they were doing with no proof to back it up?
Now that someone mentioned the Pathfinders, I think we forgot to tell our new aquaintance that we killed hhe local chapter.
That was our original reason for talking to her, I think.
"Oh we were better than fine by the time we got done with the people in Cleveland." Your tone is still low but it is sharp as steel out from under the whetstone. "Not to brag but I figured you would want to know, given your history with them, set your mind at ease while I get some kind of recommendation for among folk of good-heart and certain talents."
We shouldn't tell lies that involve other people without more prep.That is indeed how we learned it.
But we could claim Harry told us about them pressuring him with the video. (They had to pressure him somehow and the video was their only piece of evidence)
Which we know wouldn't be so clear while showing a wizard. And we know they should know that too.
So while we hadn't known they were knowingly arresting an innocent when they did it, we could plausible claim to have learned about it later.
A sentence which is entirely true too. We learned it later (by hacking them). But we could claim to have learned it from Harry.
Not entirely proof, but it either leaves them so inept as not to know wizards have trouble with cameras or well, willing to arrest someone for something they didn't do.
Yeah. Now that we have it we should probably start writing more perception related things into our plans.
Sure, I'll add "no mentioning Bob". I think this goes without saying, but that's not an issue.[X] Yog
It might not strictly be necessary, but it could be worth adding something about not mentioning Bob when it comes to the book. He's Harry's secret after all. A little extra emphasis on how they walked into the regional Warden commander's home with a warrant and some pistols to arrest him could be helpful as well.
Either they thought he was the type to murder mortals and decided to roll the dice, or they didn't and arrested him anyway. We don't need to reveal we bugged their electronics to highlight how that was incredibly stupid, incredibly suspicious, or both.
