Tactician's log, timestamp --

[lucidlyOrganizational]

As tactician of my team and sole member of my session to know of this forum, I feel it is my duty to record information about our game of Sburb, both to chart our journey and for posterity in case we do not succeed. In the interests of maximum readability I will restrict my usage of my usual color when posting updates to this thread, as it appears surprisingly eye-searing on the background this forum utilizes.

The players, in order of entrance:
Denise - Knight of Doom - arbitraryLogic
Kayley - Smith of Breath - favorablyArtistic
Jayson - Rogue of Time - timepieceHattrick
Robert - Page of Blood - hystericalTamborine
Amanda - Grace of Dream - obligatoryFaithfulness
Myself (Thomas) - Sage of Space - lucidlyOrganizational

As of this post, we are approximately six days into our 'adventure'. Denise, despite being our leader and therefore ostensibly a responsible and relatively unbiased person, appears to despise me still, though the only evidence of it beyond the circumstantial is the continued excess of long and rickety ladders in her extensions of my house. Should drop her off a cliff when I figure out how to teleport things, see how she likes heights then I shall have to discover what exactly she dislikes so much about me.

Kayley is as unrelentingly cheerful as ever, and when I last saw her, while passing through her Land, she appeared to be taking great pleasure in walloping underlings with an oversized and excessively spiked wrench. How odd.

I haven't heard from Jayson since the memo earlier today. Just as well, reading pesterlogs involving him is a constant test of my sanity and ability to handle carelessly used English.

Robert still appears to be having difficulty with his roleplay co-efficient, but didn't believe me when I told him that he would defeat his enemies more quickly if he attacked head-on instead of behaving like Jayson's title should. What use is knowing Sburb's workings if the fools on my team don't believe me when I tell them what to do? Being a Blood player with the attendant healing abilities is no reason to not play efficiently...

Amanda appears to be doing as well as could be expected, considering the disappearance of her elder sister. She displays an impressive ability to harness the power of Dream in underhanded and surprisingly violent ways - but then, she is a Grace. I should keep a closer eye on her, perhaps team up and practice my skills as a tactician while making sure she is happy and mentally healthy. If at all possible I wish to detect her inevitable cataclysm before it happens and direct it towards where it would be least harmful to us players.

I am doing fine, thank you for asking. My land appears devoid of frogs at the moment, though there are massive amounts of 'caves' too small for myself to enter that they could be hiding in.

Another day, another memo. Denise cited the low cost of ladders as her reasoning for continuing to use them; I noted that as the Space player I am essential, and how would I be able to do my frog-breeding duties if I fell to my death? She scoffed and called me an egotistical prick. I shall have to visit Kayley, see if I can see anything interesting in her client's house...

Kayley took my notice about what is dangerous to alchemize in stride, though she refused my suggestion of getting rid of her Squiddle toys on the grounds of them not being dangerous on their own. Then she gave me a hug (odd) and a new wand (this makes two dozen). This one is a velvety black with marbled streaks the color of my text, only spiked to delineate the handle, and has a miniature version of my prefered shirt symbol on the butt. The lasers are, like always, vivid orange.

Jayson has apparently discovered the connection between the Time and Space aspects, and has been tagging along with me and Amanda while we do her Land quests. He is marginally less obnoxious in person and he at least has figured out what his Title/Aspect combination is guiding him to act like so his capabilities come in handy, though his careless attitude still irritates me and I am certain his lackadaisical manner of speech will be the direct cause of my descent into insanity.

Robert is a coward. Not one that absconds, but one that refuses to fight in close enough range to allow himself to be hit. You are a COMBAT CLASS, you FOOL, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO TANK THE DAMAGE! YOU'RE A BLOOD PLAYER, YOU CAN FUCKING TAKE IT!

Ahem. I apologize. His refusal to live up to his Title infuriates me.

Having company seems to have greatly cheered Amanda. I am very glad I took specificNihilism's advice; I was worried about Amanda's reticince to speak of her problems, but now I can see she merely needed more than text comfort. Her sheer destructive capability continues to unnerve me, though I greatly admire her ability to think of different ways of handling her Aspect. And, to put it bluntly, her land is breathtaking.

GenesisArtificer's tips on how to scry were helpful, vague as they were. Intuition does appear to be the word of the day. As could be expected for an active class, they work better when I phrase what I look for in terms of how it would affect me. Useful enough once I got the hang of it, though I still have a headache from my first few attempts. Fool. So long as I stay close any dangers to myself will also be a danger to her. I should have understood that immediately.
