Tarja's psychic presence is pretty large so I'm sure Kadia could sense her, whether she wanted to or not. ;)

Sensing auras, eh? I wonder if Kadia would be able to sense, Ei'lycia since she can hide herself physically and mentally. That ought to be interesting to explore later on.

[Lawtan]

Umm...she's half-passed out at the moment from having to rush in/toss land out of the way to get to the portal...
I'll write out her coming back tonight...
Hmm...mayhaps. Her aura-sensing is untrained, whereas her telekinetics are...

As far as I'm concerned, if someone is psychic, they can sense other people doing "psychic things" around them the same way... they can hear someone speaking around them. Some people have better "hearing" than others, but unless the character is specifically "deaf" there's no reason they wouldn't be able to sense others under normal circumstances, people specifically hiding their presence excluded obviously, though just like a silencer on a gun, there'll still be *something* there unless... they actually shut off their psyche.

Ctrl+F and replace psy for spirit in there as well.

Yeah, you two are good at giving Dante a hard time in trying to figure out who's where.

Kadia: Who? Little old me? *blinks faux-innocently*
*Rurik, being very faint in aura - he is a machine, after all - creeps up to steal from Dante while Kadia lights up her aura brilliantly*

I really don't think Rurik should have a psychic presence at all. I might not have mentioned it in the setting overview, but psychoactive AI's are like... nuclear-deterrence caliber off-limits. The Network is way too important to the survival of humanity to risk something like Shodan or Deus getting loose in there.

[Suzerain of Sheol]

Also, speaking of Deus, was wondering if anyone here is familiar with Shadowrun and/or the Renraku Arcology Shutdown module in specific. Was thinking it'd adapt pretty damned well to Esch with a few serial numbers filed off. No point doing it if you've all seen it before, though. Even if I did put my own twist on it.

[Quiet Man Cometh]

It's already been established that I have no idea what you're talking about. Not sure about the others though.

[Lawtan]

I always wanted to play Shadowrun! I love the novels!
-Warning - Irrational fandom approaching-
I have some of the old rp books, where there were stories of AI that actually become "gods" in their own right, and one died, one went missing, and the final is insane...
Then there is Tommy Talon and his group...
Gods...Shadowrun was what got me into Norse Mythology - Ragnarock!

[Suzerain of Sheol]

I believe the insane one is Deus, iirc. I can't remember the other two. Was Megaera one of the others?

I'd have to go over the arcology setting again to see how much I'd need to change to make it fit in Esch (I mean, we have magic and cybertech and magic internet, so it shouldn't be too hard), but I take that as a yes, you'd be for this? :P

[Espy]

So uh. I might have gotten a bit bored (yes, I'll get the profile up tomorrow), and felt like practicing with my new pen, so this happened.

(For the record, o's and c's are pains to write.)

[Quiet Man Cometh]

Very nice, Espy. :)

My sister made me write out all the place cards for her wedding, so I got to sit down with my sister-in-law's calligraphy pen set and an instruction book and try and make things look good. Certainly wasn't that fancy though.

[Lawtan]

That's the fountain pen, correct? Very good!

[Espy]

@Quiet -- Thanks!
@Law -- Yes; it's a lot crisper than the calligraphy pen I had been using before.

Also...uh...profile will happen sometime soon-ish, I hope. Was asleep until 4pm.

[Lawtan]

Ha! I've just been reading about the Tuatha da Danann most of the day!
Why don't I feel guilty about that?
