Bodyswap at the House on the Hill: Session 2

[hot_mess_express]

You awaken slowly, laying in the middle of a cold, hard stone floor … and realise that you have absolutely no idea where you are, or what in all the hells is wrong with your body.

Maybe you're suddenly bigger than you remember, or smaller. Maybe you've got more limbs! Less limbs! Sharper teeth? Weird, unfamiliar powers and magic to tap into, or perhaps no powers at all? Without a mirror, it's very difficult to tell exactly what — or perhaps, who? — you look like … but maybe whoever else is around you could help you figure that out.

I'm familiar with magic and I'm familiar with Faito.

And considering even if I stole it, it'd just be on this guy, kind of pointless for me to do that, isn't it?

[gingerdiligence]

True. I cannot use it. If you are able to, better it be with someone who can make use of it.

[He'll take it. Doesn't bother putting it on because that seems like a Hassle.]

[Closing his eyes and focusing, focusing, focusing-]

[Tries to tug on the OTHER magic he feels and make a connection and-]

Huh. There's really nothing.

I guess their order was thorough.

[Holding it back out.]

[gingerdiligence]

[Taking it back and putting it back on.]

Does the one making this trial wish for us to fail? I see no other purpose for depriving us of magic and leaving us access to trinkets we cannot use.

[magicalgirladjacent]

I think that's just bad luck. It's likely that necklace is for an order of protectors. It would make sense to lock it to a person.

Just most would lock it a body, not a soul, or mind. Which is probably the case.

I think I still have this guy's magic. At least I feel something.
