Hi,
This thread is related to my IRL saga in which I offer you the role of the NPC who have to vote ingame. If you are not interested, let me thank you for your reading and have good day. In the other case, please enjoy this little post.
In my saga, the (Provençal) Tribunal decided to invest 50 pawns to buy magical item to fight against faeries, because there seem that faeries have decided to attack all covenants in the Order (and not only covenants, towns and villages too). In provence, the attack made some wounded magi (+- 10) and one died, 2 are lost in twilight and 1 archmagus (Valgravian) lost its mind due to an hermetic effect of unknown source. The Tribunal was rightly upset by the faerie thing and after a much heated debate, decided not to ask the upcoming extraordinary Grand Tribunal to make right to strike preemptively the faeries, but still to have a group of magi ready to defend the weakest magi and covenants of the tribunal.
The faeries used direct attacks (petrification and sword) and indirect ones on the buildings of covenants etc. (bombardment of huge rocks thrown by giants); most faeries where seen, but not all. The archmagus was attacked while he defended the cathedral of Andorra with the town folks inside from the rocks thrown by mountain faerie giants.
During the tribunal of 1270, after these events, there was a vote, and the tribunal decided that a commitee would vote on the proposed items by magi of the tribunal. The propositions are anonymous, only the praeco know which item is proposed by who. Hereunder you will only see what is proposed, not by whom. Some items are from NPC, others from PC. That's why I want to have an external decisive intervention: you.
The commitee gathers 1 PC (representative of his covenant) and 7 NPCs (representative : Garus Flambeau (Castra Solis) Ruberus Verditius (Aedes Mercurii) Gilbert Flambeau (Ostal des exilés) Mariola Jerbiton (Tolosa Paratge) Mélisandre Merinita (Ara Maxima Nova) Marcella (Stella Durus) Lucius Tremere (Berinor))
I think that it would be interesting if the decision is not taken by me, since some PCs have proposed items and hope to have the right to sell some item to gain the vis from the tribunal.
The item would be bought by the tribunal and given to a Brigade of INtervention (some magi who can teleport and are quite ready to help other covenants and magi against the faeries even if it means losing time or life).
If you are interested, you can cast 3 votes among the following list of item:
- first one gives 50 points,
- second one, 25 points
- third one, 10 points.
When all votes (7 first persons who vote here and the player who has already cast his votes) are cast, I sum them up and each item is bought, according to the quantity the magus can do (in max 1 year) and in the order up to 50 pawns.
Each offer is one independant item (charged, lesser or invested), even if a magus proposed multiple options.
(Note: in our saga there is a house rule concerning PeVi guideline : they do base level might points, not +2 magnitude)
