So. I’m considering “Demonic Attendant” as a Veteran Advance for my Spider. How does that work? Does it come with a fixed power level?
What sort of stats are we talking about for the Demon, or does it simply grants Potency in certain situations?
So.
So.
Demons are discussed on p61 or the v6 QS and details of their Affinity and Aspect are on the table of the 67th page of the v6 QS. I don’t think you need more than those details as a player.
Well. True. But we’re not a group that do secrets all that much.
If it’s a fire and pray for it work-thing? So be it.
If you read the stuff on Demons it says they are incredibly strong so it’s stronger and faster than any human. Do you need any more information than that? If you say in the fiction something outrageous about the demon then the MC is going to say “No, but” and offer something less gonzo as a suggestion until the effect is agreed amongst the players.
The Demonic Attendant text says “When, having bound yourself by arcane ritual to a demon, you indulge its dark desire, you receive permission to command it and it may not refuse you. When the demon’s desire is not well satisfied, it receives permission to work in secret toward your destruction to be free of its binding.” I’d suggest that the binding ritual is not something lightly undertaken and the “demon’s dark desire” that you should be indulging is equally unpleasant. Look at those Desires in the Demon Table and I suspect that a demon desiring savagery is not going to make you the ideal companion for a crew looking to keep the Heat off.
Yeah, the details of that binding ritual are gonna be very nasty, I’d wager. Assuming your GM is anything like me. 🙂
When you set out to learn and perform the ritual, tell the GM what magnitude of demon you’re trying to discover and bind. If it’s not a very high number, maybe she’ll have some mercy on you.
Alright, that makes sense. Thank you for the input.
