Want to know how evil a GM can be?
Jul. 6th, 2004 12:19 amBy now, everyone knows the salient points about my 7th Sea character. Jenny, amnesiac, thinks she's Avalonian, can read and write Vodacce, has these half-remembered skills, primal fear of Sorte magic, yadda-yadda-yadda. There have been theories on top of theories about what happened to Alison and what she used to be.
Well, today I found out what she used to be. And my God, Andy P is eeeeeeeeeevil.
Went to this dinner I was so stressed about, and thankfully Fiora and Pietro's wife didn't try to rip my strands to shreds. I got a few other things, though, mostly from Pietro's five-year-old daughter. "Hello. You're very pretty. Are you married to my Daddy now?" was the first question. The second was addressed to her mother -- "Mummy, why's she got a big--?" "Chew your food, Louisa." Apparently, no one's that much bothered about Alison shagging Pietro -- well, not much. The fate witches in the room were looking at my strands, but not because of who my strongest Cups strand is attached to. And then we were told why we were there. One of the Tessatore -- the strongest Fate Witches in Vodacce -- wanted to have a word with us. And even before that, we got called in front of a quite talented Strega in her own right, one Valentina Villanova. According to her, there's this one huge strand, more like a rope than a spiderweb, pointing in the direction of the Caligari islands. You remember the Caligari? The ones we've killed about two bands of over Syrneth artefacts? Yeah; their island. As it turned out, that strand is pointing the same place Alejandro's damned bracelet is, but we didn't find that out until later.
The other thing we found out was a little bit more about Alison's background. Oh, she's born Vodacce, all right. Not a courtesan. Not a former Vedova. Not even a half-blood. According to the Tessatore, I was a fucking Strega. Fine, the power's all but gone now (she has made me see this one huge strand of mine, though it looks small and thin to me), but the fact is I was born and probably raised a Strega. I'm a Fate Witch. With Scholar. I can read and write. I might have been married. I might have had kids. And, whether husband or father or brothers, someday someone's going to come after me. And then they're going to want to burn me at the stake.
I. Am. So. DEAD!
