Inhale the joy

Inhale the fun

Now it’s time for me to get on top

Of the world

Inhale the music and the warmth

The crowd is ready to bring me to the top

Of the world

(chorus)

Cause the world is mine

I won’t stop this time

Cause the world is mine

And I’m feeling so divine

I’m part of this illusive show

Time for me to get on stage

Lights fade

Tomorrow you’ll be at my feet

Saturated senses set me free

It’s all I need

The world the world is mine

And I’m feeling so divine

Poor Deal (Devil)

POOR DEAL

My father made a deal with the devil

He promised to give me away

If the devil made him rich and handsome

He thought it was a small price to pay

So the devil, he come to get me

But my tears were way too salty

So he said—

“Cut off her hands

Cut ’em off clear

And I’ll be back next tuesday”

Oh my poor mother, she cried buckets

And then she mopped the kitchen floor

She begged my daddy “call it all off”

She begged him—

He said

“When you deal with the devil

The deal is done”…

My mother said “babe we’re leaving

Pack your bag

Hush, don’t say a word

While your pa’s out late drinking

We’ll make like winter birds

We can take a plane, we can take a train, we can take a car

Far from here

We better make haste

There’s no time to waste

Before the devil gets here”

The first time I met him

He was wearing a blue suit

My mother recalled me

As I laced up my boot—

He gave me a jar of butterflies

And oh how my heart fluttered by

It flew past the graves of

The lady hearts he’s slain

But oh how I can’t imagine things so profane

I don’t need your nicknacks

I don’t need none of that

Just give me all the warmth

That your soul can afford—

So he gave me a ring and he made me his thing

We can take a train, we can take a car, we can take a plane

Far from here

We can take a train, we can take a car, we can take a plane

(Far from here)

We better make haste

There’s no time to waste

Before the devil gets here

We better make haste

There’s no time to waste

Before the devil gets here

If God and the devil are the same

Then who’s your daddy now?

Scenes and memories for Sethany and Eve

Eve’s father made a deal with the Devil via Dr Zach Stone, he just never realised the cost. It was the Omicron treatment where Evelyn was gifted with her power, the aftermath of which her parents realised that something dangerous happened and they chose to drop all contact with Dr Stone and the Pangeus Institute.

Sethany has a new plan, this time she will have it all, Eve will be at her feet defeated and the World will belong to Sethany. This will be achieved using her latest device which will transmit a subliminal illusion via Social Media, a subtle form of Mind Control. Every mobile device, electrical outlet, radio and gadget becomes a transmitter for this subtle form of mimetic control. People will actively seek to be ruled by the Eldest of Vandovia and Sethany Strange.

Sethany has spent months setting up the controller and performing alpha and beta tests to ensure that her device will work. This Black Friday will be the start of the new age, a Strange Age , the Age of Sethany.

Going to try to do D&D’s ‘Out of the Abyss’ campaign solo (with a bunch of NPCs as well). One tool I found that people may or may not be aware of is Magic Set Editor. Its designed to let you create your own magic cards. The elements of the story I will need to look up often, like creatures, I’m printing out my own stat cards that I can re-use going forward.

As someone who travels a lot, I’m thinking the more I can put on these cards the better. What I like about this program is that the cards print out perfect size for the card sleeves that are designed for MTG. So for things that require 2 cards of stats I can use a clear sleeve and have it 2-sided. Since I play magic as well, I have so many tokens that I can have them in the sleeve with it in order to give it the card feel.

There are also custom templates you can download. I need to figure out how to make my own templates still. The one pictures is a full text template.

Yeah, I’m hiding from the world in a k-hole

I see them talking gang here, what they say so?

Every hero has its archenemy, Eve might be a fool but her nemesis certainly is not. Sethany Strange is that particular foe.

Still the old adage often rings true, the one about best laid plans.

#SGAM2017

Sethany Strange 8 (24)

Sethany is a Genius, whose plans for World Domination began at an early age. Her parents were totally oblivious and doted on her every whim. Sethany knew that she was destined for greater things, she saw solutions to problems that the other wunderkind could not even perceive, yet she was constantly stymied by other lesser minds, even in the New Golden Age of Man at the dawn of the 52nd Century. She invented a T.R.A.N.S.I.T Key (Temporal Resonance Accumulator Nexus Spatial Interstitial Transfer), with this she attempted to take over the Galaxy, but was foiled by the Galactic Guild whose roster includes Eve 2.0. Her plan had involved infecting the Numinosity (A Galactic Network linking all minds) with a memetic virus. Sethany’s backup plan was to translate her family back to the 20th Century, where she could safely plan the eventual domination of humanity and prevent the formation or the need for the Galactic Guild, by destroying Eve, by economic dominance and careful curation and pruning of the Timelines.

Sethany Strange is not all that she appears, there was a problem during the transfer to the 20th Century which caused Sethany to split into 3 separate forms, one a small child, a woman aged about 30 and a woman in her 50s. The child lives in a small village near Edinburgh with Sethany’s parents. The other aspects work openly on the international scene, the Matriarch rules a small country in Europe the Kingdom of Vandovia, her younger self is its ambassador to the USA, UK, China, Russia, Europe and Australia. There is a numinous link between all the aspects, another effect of the disruption is that Sethany suffers an extreme form of depression and always feels totally isolated from others. Each form has its own particular powers. The Child is a Master Manipulator, the Younger Self can split herself into multiple selves and the Eldest wears powered armour and has many robots under her control.

Motive: World, Galactic and Temporal Domination, Economic Dominance, destroying Eve

Environment: Anywhere, the child being the rarest

Health: 50

Damage Inflicted: 10

Armor: 8

Movement: Short, Long (Teleportation and Flight)

Modifications: Resists mental attacks and deception as level 9; Understands, repairs, crafts advanced technology as level 11, Speed Defense as level 9

Combat: All of Sethany’s forms have Nanite Armor, both the child and the younger self are usually invisible. The armour allows her to exist without outside air (or air pressure), food or water for up to 14 days at a time.

Quantum Blast: Long Range Force and Energy Blast which inflicts 10 points of damage

Stealth Mode: Become Invisible for one minute, or until she makes an attack

Force Wall: Establish an immobile, two dimensional field of transparent or opaque force 10 feet by 10 feet (3m x 3m) for 10 minutes

Quantum Energy Cloak: Create an Energy Field that gives +5 to Armour against heat, cold, magnetism, light, radiation, sonic, temporal (one at a time, chosen when she uses this power) for 10 minutes

T.R.A.N.S.I.T: She can instantly transfer herself elsewhere, to another place, time, dimension or level of reality of which she is aware

Interaction: Sethany knows that she is a superior being and looks upon others as insects, she generally hides her feelings from others, only expressing her sadness when she is alone.

Use: Sethany tends to scheme about ways of enticing and eradicating Eve, discoveries of ancient and future technology and ways involving other countries and all financial institutions.

Loot: Sethany has a lot of resources, so the chances are high that she has 1d6 Cyphers at hand and 1d3 artifacts

So this is a Strange Hermit, the next card is the Empress

Perhaps the Sethany achieves her goal, or perhaps Eve enters the Inverse realm and things become stranger still

I like how you used a song and the tarot cards to inspire your character.

What Kind of Fool, by All About Eve

https://youtu.be/srpFd7MAssE

Can’t see the wood for all of the trees

Can’t hear the wind for the breeze that whispers

Voice in your head… you like what it said

So what can you do but listen to it?

What kind of fool

Lays all that’s precious to waste?

What kind of fool

Leaves all their treasure to rust in the rain?

They’ll need it again when the sky clears

What kind of fool

Won’t discover the jewel

‘Til the dust clears ?

Fools like us…

Fools who want more than they’ve treasured before

Wanting the dawn of the brightest morning

Reach for the stars ’cause they’re sweeter by far

Than the moon ‘though she’s brighter

And closer to you…

Evelyn’s parents were unable to conceive, one of her fathers friends and a lodge brother recommended the Pangeus Institute and procedure by the world famous Dr Zachary Stone enables the couple to conceive. Evelyn is welcomed into the world by overjoyed parents.

Evelyn from an early age showed signs that although she was physically well developed, her social and mental development was seriously lacking. The parents consult with Dr Stone, resulting in Omicron treatments which awakens her latent Omega Gene.

Dr Stone had originally enhanced the foetus using revolutionary technology, that was the alpha phase, the Omicron treatment would bring forth Homo Ultima.

Now Eve has super fast reflexes and superior regenerative capabilities.

Eve seems to have a knack for being in the right place at the right time, even though she pretty much remains clueless as to what exactly is going on.

Next we have the Hermit.
