<p>added quote [duplicated in /RidingTheDragon, but I think it goes here]</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>rebeccaborgstrom - 02/13/2004 03:17:34<br /> <br /> Meep!<br /> <br /> That is close but not 100% accurate. :)<br /> <br /> The Acquaintances Background did not exist when the *Maidens* built<br /> that Charm. One of the things I did during Charm building was think<br /> out why each Charm existed in the setting, and, for the few Charms<br /> that have had to change over time, their history. :)<br /> <br /> When *I* wrote the Charm, I knew about the Acquaintances Background.<br /> It changed a little bit since I wrote the Charm, I think, but not<br /> hugely---my best memory, and I'm sleepy right now, is that it added<br /> some kind of option that the Charm doesn't easily duplicate, which<br /> makes it more worthwhile in chargen.<br /> <br /> Rebecca<br /> <br /> <br /> ----<br /> <br /> rebeccaborgstrom - 02/13/2004 18:32:41<br /> <br /> I'm not sure what you're currently asking.<br /> <br /> I'll answer the original question: you can use the Charm to make<br /> genuine Acquaintances.<br /> <br /> No one should censure you for doing so: not the Maidens, not the<br /> Bureaucracy, not the Storyteller.<br /> <br /> The Charm is just a bit wonky because the Maiden of Journeys didn't<br /> know that Sidereals would need Acquaintances when she created it.<br /> Possibly she guessed . . . but I think the Maidens guessed five<br /> million things about the future of the world, and only about ten or<br /> twenty thousand actually came to pass.<br /> <br /> (I mean, look at the Medicine tree. They knew *something* like the<br /> Deathlords was likely to happen; and it's pretty clear they knew it<br /> was going to be bad; and it's also clear that they had no idea<br /> whatsoever what the details would be. I suspect strongly that their<br /> best guess was that Deathlords and Abyssals would be zombies.)<br /> <br /> Rebecca</div>
