The combined double actions of two societies was a little difficult for me
to combine into one results. I finally decided to apply the following values
(very subjective, I know, but fair, I think):
Weight: Double, double (for a net bonus of +3)
Secrecy: -1 to roll
Determinant: Magic sophistication +4 (the lowest of the two societies)
Difficulty of Task: Mythic (-5)
Modifiers: +1 The actors themselves. +1 for the Myr-Kun carryover bonus from
1415. I decided that the other modifiers would end up in a push between the
two sides involved.
So, +3-1+4-5+1+1(+3 total and the die rolls).
+3+(-1+1+0-1)=+2 (Complete Success)
Suggestion: The mission to "retrieve" the golden mirror is, on the surface,
a complete success, with all actors escaping with minimal injury. Near the
end of the mission, secrecy is abandoned in favor of speed and the "enemy"
is aware of both the theft and the actors (almost certain to seek
retribution at a later date). Matters are further complicated as the Mir and
Eerith actors differ about where the Mirror should be delivered. The issue
if finally resolved by the creation of a duplicate mirror. Each society
retains one and neither the actors nor the enemy are certain which of the
two Mirrors is the actual relic, thus insuring that, before the Mirror can
be used, both peoples must again act together.
>Action 1 and 2:
Steal the Mirror
Type: External Politics
Actor: The Prophet and Mirish assistance (oh yea, and the dog)
Weight: Double
Secrecy: Immense
Prime Determinant: (defer to Mirish co-action)
Task: Mythic
Modifiers: This is a joint action with the Mir, all eerith values are in
supplement to that action.
