Scales

Ran the first scene of my Scales game, and I think it went rather well. Heh. I even have a title for the campaign, but I'm not sure if I want to tell the players what it is yet.

I remember when I was running my previous In Nomine campaign. I told the players that the title of the campaign/game was Fiat Justitia. It was a while before any of them realised that the full quote was Fiat Justitia, Ruit Caelum, which could be understood as a little ominous when dealing with a game about angels and heaven and stuff.

Day was otherwise good. But I'm very glad it's the weekend.

1. Know ye then, that our Parents were driven forth from the land of their sole possession and birthright, by an angel which did bear before him or her an flaming sword.

2. Before they did pass from this life, these our parants did reveal unto us the location of the Tree of Life, which is like unto an antioxidant and Botox in the selfsame fruit.

3. Be aware that your name was shewn unto us by the Knowledge of Good and Evil, nor is this Spam; and verily do we hope that with your good aid, may the Land and the Trees thereon be restored unto us.

4. Please delay not, as time is short, and I fear some falling out with mine brother, who is not an Arborist, that should bring your efforts to nothing, a woeful outcome indeed.

But it was such a nice reaction when you did find out. :)

How is Scales playing in translation? I remember you working on this almost ten years ago!

Was it that long ago? Yikes.

It's playing okay so far, but we've only had a starting scene and a couple of dice rolls. It's feeling promising, however. The PCs are engaging nicely with the background.
