  • I am headed to Osprey corporate housing. On the way, I reach out to Mnemosyne. If she is available, I'll see if she's willing to help me with this.
  • That generates Two Hold, spent for the following: THE ART OF THE PURSUIT: When Tao assimilates all the information they have available on a target, roll. On a 10+, generate 2 hold. On a 7–9, generate 1. Spend that hold 1 for 1 when actively on the…
  • (Rolled: 2d6+1. Rolls: 3, 6. Total: 10)
  • Until my daimyo had called upon me, I'd been rather affectionate with Junko-chan, touching her hand, pulling her into a kiss, putting an arm around her as we sat on the grass. Since my daisho is not here, I felt comfortable in a sense of anonymity. …
  • I chuckle lightly when she gives out a protest I would never utter aloud myself. When she asks if I'll be at the Pagoda, I reach a hand up to caress the smooth skin on her young cheek. "If I've completed my task, I will be. I will seek you out.... f…
  • I give the retreating avatar of my daimyo a curt nod. When I return to Junko-chan and see her looking at me, I offer a quick smile, more to acknowledge her as I rise to my feet again, "Junko-chan, I am very sorry. My daimyo has called on me to hand…
  • Ohhhh Sarah Pike! I've watched her streams of Overwatch play with Tae Hyun. She is a cutie, very colorful language, and her play is top notch. She has a large following, I didn't know she had a sarariman job, too. I wonder why she works at Osprey? R…
  • The Daimyo is strong, and fair. He cares deeply for his fief and the people in it, as long as they are honorable. Kai is not yet what his father has become, but I hold hope that he will mature. I am not a businessperson, but Yamada's influence has c…
  • Indentured servitude ostensibly has an exit clause. If the servant somehow obtains enough funds to buy their way out of debt, they are free. Of course, servants are rarely paid and often debt grows with interest, so the number of indentured servants…
  • Taigen-sama wishes a virtual check-in by noon, but never before nine AM. He has extensive business dealings across the globe, which necessitates an odd sleep schedule. My daimyo will inform me via a text-only message that he wishes to see me. Then I…
  • I have been to High Park, but only to report to my daimyo, Taigen-sama after enforcing Giri. He's asked me to report to him there in front of others, a show of force. It is demeaning. I do not like it. I am not afforded the privilege of going there …
  • Today is a special morning - I'm not carrying my daisho. It's almost always with me. After a thorough shower with Junko, I slipped into a brown leatherette tank dress, boots and an over-sized purse, all matching, of course. I even threw in a little…
  • When the Honorbound shares a moment of intimacy with someone other than a target, be it physical or emotional, they later learn what Giri they owe other people and may ask them any one question from Absolution immediately, regardless if they have ta…
  • I take advantage of her semi-conscious state to explore her body in the light of the early morning. At Neon Pagoda, the lights and VR obscured her. Last night, we coupled in the hazy glow of drinks and drugs. Now, it is just the two of us, and I'm i…
  • Tae Hyun does a terrible job of cleaning up the tea, but I let him finish his attempt for a moment longer. Ah, he's satisfied with it, good. I return Tae Hyun's bow. I do not bow to mirror his sloppy manner; I bow as I have been trained all my life,…
  • Most food is engineered protein chains. There are several brands of nanite-food available, too - the most popular is from a company called Byte-sized (I know, it's groan-worthy). There's a healthy market for hydroponically grown food, but it's very …
  • Public intoxication isn't directly a matter of Giri, no. Offending someone's honor is, and someone out of their wits can easily cross the line. If Tae's only "a little" under the influence, I'll let him go without trouble. I return his nod. "Thank …
  • Sarah Pike info: "My former boss was a man named Pajun. Pajun Laghari. He was the division head at Osprey Bionics for cyberbrain development and virtual visualization hardware. He's since taken up a CTO position at a "friend" of mine's pet project —…
  • GIRI QUESTIONS After you introduce your character, you may use the following bullet points to develop Giri relationships with other players if you so choose, or develop relationships of your own. * Mnemosyne knows why Tao enforces Giri, she has told…
  • GIRI Tao is the enforcer for The Neon Pagoda, the institute/organization that upholds Giri. When someone needs debts owed to them taken care of, this task falls to Tao. The Neon Pagoda is unique because a prosperous marketplace, largely self-gover…
  • The red and white lights are quite unwelcome at this hour. If the sun is starting to rise, that means I have had four hours of sleep, tops. "Keira," I state clearly enough on the second try to engage the home assistant. "Log the error code displayi…
  • • What is your availability for this game? (Post rates, days off, etc) • What is this game going to be rated? AO? R? PG? • What would you like to focus on in the tone of the fiction: emotions, interpersonal play/drama, philosophical introspection, …
  • Improvement [Detail: When you attempt something that benefits you and fail or when you gain XP from beliefs mark each box per 1XP you accrue. Grab the advancement list from your playbook.]
  • Motley, as you look across the field of battle, some gangers firing at The Fat Man's goons, others taking shots at men who appear, then disappear and have wiz guns that would fetch months of booze and food at the Black Market, you see your opening. …
  • After a momentary hesitation, the pilot calls the information over the comms to his team, and the chopper pulls up out of the Arena, turns in mid-air, then the nose points down at an angle and it takes off like a shot, the rotors gone in moments. A…
  • Sierra, Reese and Fleece each take one of your hands and the three of you dash into the open air of the Arena, running as fast and hard as you can for the stands. As you do, the shadow of the helicopter blots out the sun. You feel their guns trainin…
