The Long Night Part One: Embers in the Dusk: A Planetary Governor Quest (43k) Complete Sequel Up

We can just ask Security Council representative if that is the case. Or Durin, if we think Rotbart should know, which he probably should.

1. What was the brief conversation Eldrad had with Jain Zar when he returned? This one?

2. Also why did Zar have to kill the other seers? The Silver Skull I can get, but the Eldar ones? Would they have exploded into plague if she hadn't?

@Durin since others are asking (sometimes inane) questions, I guess I shall too. How would the Quest have turned out if we had started 1000 years before the Emperor's Death? I mean, I still recall your statement that the AdMech would have made Rotbart a Segmentum Governor/Lord-thingy when we found that STC Constructor...

@Durin, is it possible for gods of such ridiculously small and specific domains to come into existence?
@Nurgle - Repeating these things for you. Your Double Downs are messed up as you've got two active in Year 3, and your Personal section is wasting a slot we could be using for a Personal Attention. The High Council Meeting can go into one of the Spend Time With slots - it's never required Personal Attention time before, so I don't see why it would now. Since your plan is in the lead, please fix.
Because I was not up to date on the threat I asked Durin some question over conversation:
@Durin
That means the chance for Basic is: -20% + (62-20) = 22% because basic is the first difficulty level. The first part of the wording support that.
Is that correct or does basic count as the zero level?
2. Lets asume the above is false. Than the chance for basic would be 42% and for advanced -40% + (62-20) = 2%.
Is the double malus wanted?
3. Lets asume that the double malus is wanted, because of the explicit wording. Can Thrant get similar boni from doing the more basic fundamentals leading up to a more advanced? For one or both of the mali?
4. Thrant has already the fundamentals of Haywire and Stealth. Are they basic or advanced?
4a. If one of them is advanced or higher would fundamentals more basic get a bonus for research?
4b. If one of them is advanced or higher what are their more basic fundamental researches?
Because of that @Enjou ,@Nurgle ,@Shard I would normally propose that we look into fundamental research of fabrication but with the comming tech trade delaying it seems fine as well. Just for the large pile of things to do.
@Durin
1. With this beeing a free action we can not double down on it.

Huh? As I understand it, chances for basic are 62%, with every level above it giving -20%. Second part is there simply so we don't have to calculate Tranth's bonuses.
I read it as if the 62% is the bonus Thrant get through stat and skills.

come into existence, maybe if they are worshiped for an extended period, live more then a very brief period, no
1. basic is 0 level
3. advanced would be 42% after bonuses, exotic 22% and relic 2%
4. advanced, not all advnaced build out of a basic

I wonder if there's a god of stepping on small objects.
And now I'm wondering that if Ridcully gets far enough along the path of ascension he'll be able to curse creatures into existence, like the Imperative "Emperor" Blast it and the Bloody Hellfire.
I still consider foundation of nutrition to have significant potential benefits. Everybody needs food, everybody can use it. It has significant long term benefits for every human polity if we simply understand how and why nutrition works better. Decrease in the danger of disease/plagues, longer natural lifespans, improved fitness, decrease infant mortality rates, leading to increased population growth, increase in ability to support a larger population, potentially increase in nutrients/volume for food which can significantly improve supply lines. Just so much stuff can be done with a better understanding of it.
Ok Since people wanted it and @Enjou is right I dropped spending time with Syr and now Rotbart and Jane in year two are doing Anti-Psyker Training: Preparation together

What I think is that the farther Ridcully walks down the path the stronger he becomes as a mortal. Even if he becomes a Transendant he is still technically a mortal. I want him to walk all the way to the end of the path. That way when he chooses and accepts Ascension to Godhood he becomes as skilled as possible. I asked Durin when the Blind Seer trait was upgraded what it would do when Ridcully becamea god and Durin said it wouldn't make make him stronger but more skilled.

Well the above was more a joke in reference to his discworld inspiration, who during a time of great magic started to curse beings into existence via swearing.
Nah I think Transcendents are considered Immortal. They certainly don't care about dying of old age.
Him getting to the end of the path is very much a question mark.
Remember there are Nine steps and he's only on the second.
He may have to ascend early, if only to get a skill boost in dark times.

Oh man bad I knew he was a reference to discworld but I don't know anything about that series.
I meant mortal in the sense that he isn't a god. Yeah he's immortal and won't die unless killed and then maybe not even permanently.
We still got a few chaos gods that we can spy on to get them down the path a little bit more. There is also checking out the emperor's birth and death to get a better glimpse at his rebirth. I think all together that can be another step as well. We can also look deeper or more specific into some of the targets the Eldar had us check. There are still plenty of impressive enough things we can look into to get them down the path. Unless it becomes really desperate and we have to save him or something I'm pushing to try to get as far down the path as possible.
Also something I thought about there is supposed to be three people or things I could block his divination one was Eldrad and the other two were Magnus and his former first captain. Aside from them only God level Wards or similar could block his sight. When we looked into the lion whoever found him was able to block our sight. While it might be possible that it is the captain-general from the great crusade with something the emperor gave them to shield him. I'm thinking maybe it is an Ascended Sanguineous sent by the emperor before his death to get his brother.
