Celebration of the Festival of Saint Theodoros at the Le Roux Estate
This party is the raucous conclusion to the weeklong Festival of Saint Theodoros
🐘 One-Tusk: Things are tense with the Brigade, and I'm ready to shove a cannonball up Koslov's ass, but cooler-heads prevail. Someone stole a gem from Koslov's decadent noble, and we're supposed to care. He wants to search for the thief. I want to see him try and walk after he's folded into quarters. He gets to search- under strict guard, of course.
Eventually, I've had my fill. While we're in the garden, Koslov says yet another counter-revolutionary slight against our newborn egalitarian state, and I just have to pop him one in the face. That's about where things get chaotic…

Milestone Notes
Ildefons
- I dropped the Anatomist stunt to fix a misread of Animal Summoning, taking Menagerie. While I never misused Animal Summoning, I tightened it closer to RAW.
- Specified the skills and aspects of summoned animals, since they are declared "when you take this power" rather than upon summoning.
- Adjusted an aspect: If Doctors Won't Treat Wildblood, I Guess I Will Do My Best -> Associate Member of Firefighters: Wildblood Advocate
- Added Rapport at +1. This one is evident. Ildefons has been practicing his talking a lot this entire segment. A lot. And, especially in the blighter conflict, he used social skills to [try to] talk her down.
- Increased Lore (Myth) from +1 to +2. Ildefons saw Stanimir and his lackey's powers, and he's a little intrigued. He's researching about them and the like.
- Took the "Profiler" suggested Wealth & Favors stunt.
One Tusk
- Changed "Philosophically Minded" to "Strong Opinions on Philosophy"
- Bumped Provoke +1, as One-Tusk fights as much using his words as he does his body
- Bumped Athletics +1, as there's a lot of running, fighting, carrying, walking- all in all, good cardio.
- Took Backup(Wealth/Favors)
