Ravana Quest [Exalted/Aberrant]

Reader mode
I'm curious why so many people are voting to walk away and do the same thing but in a slightly different fashion. I mean, there is a serious, non-zero possibility that this is the reasonable guard. If you guys are going to be taking actions to avoid dealing with hostile guards who don't like you, I'd just go over the wall or use PHENOMENAL COSMIC POWER, because "Look for another guard post" seems to be, pretty much "play roulette as to whether or not we get a more personable guard."

It's not "scope out the place and look for the most likable guard, then introduce ourselves to him". If you don't think talking is going to work, you might as well just find another option (like going over/through the walls).
 
MJ12's got a point; we try another guard, we're just hoping they're better than this one. Good odds they're the same or even worse. Horray for not having any pretty options.

[X] Intimidate Persuasively Reason With The Guard
 
[X] Find a different checkpoint. See if that guard's more reasonable. And less bigoted. (1x)

I wonder how many characters this quest is going to go through...
 
[X] Explain why you're here and what you're doing. You can't afford to get in a fight with Abhas' guards when you're trying to get him on your side. (1x)
 
[X] Find a different checkpoint. See if that guard's more reasonable. And less bigoted. (1x)

14*1=14

[X] Intimidate the guard. Adjusting the Shades normally works well enough. (1.2x)
12*1.2=14.4

Well, there we are.

2 die stunt, sooooo

Roll 9d10

And

Pick One:

[ ] Channel 4 Dot Principle (I Gotta Find Out Who Killed Ravana)
[ ] Channel 2 Dot Principle (That Stoic Coolkid Thing)
[ ] Spend One Willpower for One Success
[ ] No Channel
 
Might be worth it to burn the 4 dot principle on this one; this comes off as being a hard task, here, even if it also looks like the lesser evil.

[X] Channel 4 Dot Principle (I Gotta Find Out Who Killed Ravana)
 
Wait a minute, cool shades? Time powers? Epic sword skills?

I'm getting a distinct Dave Strider feel from Chandra.

I'm getting old. Aside from the time powers, my first image was Hiro Protagonist.

....yes, I know its a stupid name. The book deserved a better name for its...main character.
