You say that like you're surprised.

Yeah, what was that about earlier anyway? I sat down while waiting for the browser to clear, the next moment I was waking up with everyone thinking I'd died.

Hmmm. I'll look into how to give more disclosure in the future, and I suggest you and others consider the same. Had I known that, Thez would not have interfered, in fact she'd have stopped the others from interfering. To be quite honest, I was trying to avoid a hasty mapping of the area that I was going to regret later. Its for that reason I haven't finished the world map, because I'm trying to make the layout as generally believable as possible.
Having said, a fight is literally what is about to happen next specifically because of the events of last night.

A warm breeze blows through Tracy's mane as the sun shines down on the plains outside Port Barry. Birds and wildlife can be seen doing their thing in the distance, and every so often peasants can be seen going to and from the farmland on the north side of the city.

In addition to that one and Port Barry, the Anthill, and the city to the south of the ruined city (the big circle) that has cannons are the four structural areas you are aware of.
Additionally, (though the image is shit), the black lines along the sides are steep cliffs/hills that are largely impassable on foot. Please note, there are caves and natural formations that I haven't mapped because the map is too big for that level of minute detail.

>Thez would not have interfered, in fact she'd have stopped the others from interfering
How would - How should - the characters of responded to that? Thez previously told them that demon blood allows arch-demons to control minor minor demons. Thez told them that Tracy could now be controlled, either by Soros or by Thez's evil mother, and that Thez herself could be and has been controlled, evidently by her mother. The most logical conclusion, should Thez have tried to stop them, would have been that Thez was enthralled by her mother, who was trying to prevent Tracy from being captured because she wanted to control Tracy. This would have lead to a sword fight between Trump and the evidently enthralled Thez.

>>8177
I'm sorry, but you don't just say that one character is a manchurian candidate able to be controlled at any time by the big bad, without expecting there to be repercussions. That is precisely the sort of information that ought to and will have effects upon the gameplay, not just from the set of events that occur, but also from how the player characters respond. If Tracy had run off into the woods and transformed, and then George Soros came back for a fight, Trump and hopefully the the other characters are not going to let Tracy near them at any point in the battle, or near the city, because she could at any time turncoat and literally stab them in the back.

Trumpaladin has been told, first by Thez that Tracy "smelled different," "like a demon," then by Fae that she was an "infernal," and then Vanderiem that she was an evil of the same sort as Thez. More importantly, Thez - who can generally be trusted to be knowledgable on these matters - explicitly stated Tracy could be mind controlled by arch-demons, and Thez's test revealed that Tracy had the influence of both George Soros AND Thez's demon mother. After that, there was simply no way Trump could have possibly trusted Tracy until the Manchurian Candidate issue had been resolved.

Running away made the situation worse - much worse - because it is out of character for Tracy, and because there didn't seem to any reason for it except for bad intentions. Especially when Tracy kicked Inferius (and also stabbed him, but that's more in charcater). Normal Tracy would have stayed in Trump's presence, or would have gone quietly exploring/trying to kill Fae. Not bolt into the woods. The only conclusion that could have been drawn from was that Tracy had turned evil and betrayed the team.

Trumpaldin needed to kill or cure Tracy. Trying to kill Tracy met with objections from Inferius, who also did not intend to let Tracy escape, and so the only course of action remaining was to attempt to cure Tracy.>go through the change in private, and then return for the boss fight; but others kept getting in my way
>>8146
>I suggest that players do a bit more delving/inquiring before,… well,… 'running off with things'
I spent 3+ hours and asked many questions in gameplay trying to get to the bottom of a single important question: is Tracy a demon now or not? And it was answered in the affirmative by a source not to be doubted. As for the attempted to cure Tracy by infusion with Trump's essence, well, if we are being honest here, it was a low risk move. There wasn't much to lose from failing

I see your point. What I mean is that had Thez known that Tracy was resolved to fight off/control the transformation and wasn't just flipping out, she'd have been more accepting. From Thez' perspective, Tracy did 'something', suddenly started to smell infernal, and was going apeshit. She quite honestly didn't know what was happening, and was trying to ascertain while everything was going on. In this case, it was all too sudden for it to have turned out differently. I mean, Tracy wasn't going to mention "Oh, I made a wicked bloody mary, don't freak out". I'm not being critical when I suggest more disclosure, I'm just offering a suggestion that can help the situation be more transparent.
For example, if we assume that after getting back to Port Barry that Trump gave Thez the 3rd degree (which I assume he did) he would get a much more detailed description of Thez' experience and would know that Thez really doesn't know what she's talking about.

There was no implication that she was under foreign control until you suggested it. Like a said, it's not the first time she drank a demon's blood, or had been possessed only to shrug-off the affect after an hour.
Just to clarify her motivations, she was still salty after seeing the Dragonne, and she didn't the same building. Her coping method was getting high (using a mixture of the blood she collected and the Moon Sugar she got from the Khajit), and running off into the woods to get wasted in """peace""".

Further, Thez' experience of mind control was very early and limited; its something that can be broken depending on the resolve of the character. Also, beyond Thez' knowledge, Tracy doesn't have enough of the nature to be controlled, and that such control can only occur when a person is intentionally taken over, which is also not the case.

You said not the first time she had been possessed, not that she had drunken demon blood before

All of which was unknown to all players at the time - Thez, Inferius, and myself
>>8206
>if we assume that after getting back to Port Barry that Trump gave Thez the 3rd degree (which I assume he did)
Actually, Trump has no reason to assume Thez was wrong. He did what he thought may cure her, and afterwards, Tracy went from doing what seemed to be out of character (running away and fighting Inferius) to what she normally does - acting like she owns Trump and shooing away any conceivable competitors for his affection. So it seems what he did worked, or worked well enough to where he can go off and cry from the embarrassment, and then try to stop Inferius from planning a genocide

GM came back, Thez suggested that Tracy's situation was much, much worse than expected, and she could be a puppet of George Soros because of demon influence. Tracy tried to escape, and after a fight was moderately successful. Then, Trump heroically tried to liberate Tracy from Soros's influence by the only means available to him, and seems to have succeeded. Afterwards, Inferius conspired to commit genocide with Sechs and Tracy went for a walk in the woods the next morning

Sorry, was going back over things.
Thez did say that control was a "worst case" scenario, and she was referring to how demons and/or devils can entirely control the weakest of their underlings directly. I suppose the fault is mine, but it was in character for Thez to say so, because she has seen/experienced it.

Okay. Gather information is more of a descriptive skill, to determine if the character can learn useful tidbits (like, "I'm gathering information from the locals at the pub") from otherwise mundane interactions. It doesn't apply in this case. The others:
As you take a closer look, you can see that they're not quite centaurs, as they have sheet-white skin which is covered by armor that covers their torso and horse-body (a mix of armor and barding). Also, their faces are more like blank masks, with sounds uttered from them but no motion of the jaws.
