• Brian's Session Notes

What a night...

First off Angel and I get away from a burning haven(last time I am letting Marius pick our sleeping place). We hike down from on high and into the village of the plebe's. We find that most of the cars have been disabled by taking their ignition caps. I pull out of my back pocket with an effort of will and along with some cash we get a ride. My Camrilla self would be very worried about making sure that I had a great reason to have an ignition cap for a 78 ford truck in my back pocket but my Sabbet self just let the guy wonder.....

We go into town and try to get some cultests to attack the church connected to where Mai is being held. When I go in I get a strong sense of foreboding. I wanted to get them to come out to me, I did not want to walk around a building full of the personal effects of demon worshippers. I pulled the fire alarm, which worked to my surprise. But nobody came running, I decided to be a bit more forceful and started a fire on the lowest level(with a small conjured fire bomb). Still nobody came running, so I figured they were all gone. Fire dept was now close, so I choose to forget that plan and return to Angel.

So we are now driving in a VW van....I feel like I should start singing "Shiny Happy People".(but I don't) We park close to the church and choose to use the hint given to Angel from Riza and go down the coal chute. I had a chance to impresse Angel with my magic, a very diffacult feat, and Ghost Wall'd the brick at the bottom of the coal chute. The place had a large amount of eletronic security for a church. Cameras on every hall and entrance/exit. We depended on our Donning to keep down how well they saw us. Angel overheard a conversation the led us to believe that Mai had escaped on her own within the last hour. Needless to say this was annoying and would make it hard to plant our double. We were going to dominate the guards to make them forget but wanted to see what really happened first. So we moved into the security room using magic, saw that Mai was there....~1sec of static and she was gone. We both have a reasonable grasp of teleportation at this point so it's not a reach. Not even a reach of who, but why didn't he talk to us? We left the corpse there, might devert their attention for a short time, who knows.

We decided to head to the Liteny and start getting ready for the dual, when the mountain caused the city to shutter. This ended up being almost a 30 min earthquake. With a green mist flowing out from the mountain and accross the city. I would rather not have been touched by it but it washed over both Angel and myself. I feared any number of things but I came out of it ok. Angel on the other hand got just a little paler than normal. We thought about about leaving the city, but ended up wandering around a bit. We did some humanatarian work which made Angel feel better about himself. In the end we decided to see if we could finish our mission in the chaos and headed towards the communial haven.

We found that the crypt had caved in on itself. I was pained to see parts of the Litiany in the rubble. People, humans and kindred alike will come again but history of who we were can be destroyed and never recovered. Temporis or time magic might be able to recover it, at least the knowledge part but that is a new concept that I have not quite grasped. Wehunt was indeed in the rubble, so we started trying to dig down. After only a very short time, someone started using Melapomeny. Feral vampires(wights) started to attack, they seemed to be atracted to me for some reason. I trust Angel in battle so I let them come to me and went on full defence. With their attention on me Angel was able to cut them down from behind. Very good tactics on our part. Yay! After killing 4 or 5 of them I notice a cloud of something coming out of the ground and also moving towards me. I had no wish to bask in the evil that seemed to be around, we decided to leave.
