Hi guys,
a couple questions about flashbacks.
There’s a Red Sash lock in the way.
the whisper says Flashback! I spent some time playing mah jong with One Old Sash, and he told me that they put spirits in their doors. (roll, roll, roll).
So, this is a spirit lock, and I can easily open it with my spirit key.
Can he do this? What can you exactly do in this case? Is is FATE style?
Etienne Navarre
I want to get into the tower.
I approach the two goons at the gate, invoke a FB and say “I’m of militay background: these two were once under my command, so I COMMAND them to let me in for the good old days. (roll, roll, roll)
Allright?
Etienne Navarre failed, and the guards attacked, but this is another story…

Sounds perfect to me Diego! Look at the stories you are telling! The deep character History you are making and hooks for further adventures!
Why are you playing man jong with that old Sash? Is Gambling your Vice? The Devil’s Bargain is that you are sleeping with his daughter yeah?
I don’t think it is exactly Fate style aspects or advantage, though you are establishing real fictional details about the world and the folks within it.
Wonderful. such engaged players. This is how you ‘game’ the system of Blades.
Sean did a similar thing when his character, Arcy bluffed her way past Cyclops at the tattoo parlour. Its awesome.
Yep, that’s good, Diego. Rolling to overcome an obstacle can be done in the past or the present. Just make sure it costs stress when the flashback is particularly elaborate or unusual.
