In the past couple of months, while working at fast food and finding my schedule torn into ribbons, I fell off the fitness wagon. My gym visits became infrequent, and I started eating crappy food again. Although I'm still strong and I still have muscles, they're no longer as easy to see because of the Dr. Pepper I've been drinking, the cups of tea with milk and sugar, and the cookies and pizza I've been eating. And where are my abs hiding? I think I know. Last night, the deleterious effects became obvious when a favourite pair of pants suddenly came unsnapped when I pushed out my stomach.
I couldn't do that no matter how hard I tried this summer.
I'm still too sick to go to the gym and get in a good workout, but I'm not too sick to stop eating crap.
So once again, I am on a quest to regain my definition.
I must say I'll miss the cookies....
Last night's gaming session was a blast, even though I failed in my attempts to protect Maria, the last of the Cappadocian line. I tried hard. Really, I did. I got into her room before her killers (both a Ventrue prince and two Giovanni), and used obfuscation to make myself look exactly like Maria. I was hoping to act as a decoy while Maria escaped, but she was resigned to her fate and sat on her bed like a bump on a log, holding her Bible. In case you don't know, Maria had the True Faith merit.
So I ran over beside her and did my best to protect her, while my Gangrel companion stood at the door and slaughtered all who tried to pass.
But a portal appeared in the room, and in poured black demons and a gout of flame. Following the demons was the Ventrue Prince, and he strode toward us. I attempted to use Dominate on him, ordering him to "Leave!", but he only laughed and thanked me for showing which of the two of us was really Maria. He lunged for Maria, and her True Faith sent him reeling back with an astonished look on his face. I used this opportunity to use Dementation (Incubus Passion), magnifying his fear of her True Faith.
It worked for a while, and he snarled and paced, but gave us a wide berth.
Unfortunately, the two Giovanni shimmered into the room via some discipline for another. One of them lunged for Maria and bit her. He was trying to diablerize her. I screamed and threw myself on top of him, trying to bite him, but missed. And then the Ventrue Prince stepped in and decapitated Maria in one swing, leaving the Giovanni with naught but a head in his jaws.
Having failed, I used Obfuscate to make myself disappear and stood off to the side. The Ventrue and the Giovanni snarled at one another with pure hate in their eyes, and then they vanished.
Maria's body was turning into ash. Distraught, I went through her things, lest they be taken by her killers. She had little. Her clothes, a rosary, and her Bible. But in her Bible I found a piece of paper with notes on a high-level Thaumaturgy ritual which would erase an individual from all memory permanently.
Now I have yet another secret. And perhaps Maria wasn't the last Cappadocian, after all....
And now for some links!
