Round Six[edit]

Intentions Results
The police make an attack on Jack by using Empathy to pick up on James acting weird / having to hide something. See note on James.
The Sisters of the Golden Harness get on television to get the people on their side. See note on Jack.
Anton's player could not make the session. Anton is healing from his wounds, but still wants the media spot-light and revenge on the sisters.
Allan tries to protect the Autumn Court from any potential fallout from a police investigation. Allan tries to rally the wizards against the sisters. He has nothing to trade, but before he can ask (not trade) for help, the Autumn Lady appears, says that she needs to have a word with her knight, and promptly shoes him out the door. Since the Fae (and their representatives) never ask for anything, Allan got into trouble with his boss. He had to try to explain what he was doing to her while hanging upside down from his toes. It was not pleasant.
James tries to get rid of the grainy photograph by turning himself in, and frying the computers. James found out that the sisters had been in the news, and were lobbying for certain parts of the Sex Worker Act to be repealed. He also knows he needs to get that picture gone or he will continue to be in deep trouble. James struts into the police station, not realizing that his gun will set off the metal detectors around the door. He bolts and the police take after him. It takes three police officers to wrestle James down, and they find his revolver. James has officially become a Person Of Interest in the murder investigation linked to the gun. He is grilled and told that they will be checking in on him often. James must be available whenever the police want him. He did not manage to get the photograph erased.
Jack tries to move the nuns into the Media zone. Jack contacts other more mainstream religious groups and tries to rally them to his cause. Several groups have not heard about what is happening with the Sisters, and this gives Jack a chance to emphasize the facts that he wants to emphasize. With Veronica also covering the story, there are some difficulties. Not only is it hard for Jack to spin the truth in a way that he doesn't quite believe, but he and Ronny also have a very long discussion about what he thinks he is doing. Jack manages to send out CDs of Anton protesting against the nuns, but Anton's credibility is being hammered due to his association with James. Still, the media is taking the story seriously (and what televangelist doesn't want more time on t.v.?). In spite of the extra time in the spotlight, the ministers and holy people are fettered by the Sister's status as a fringe cult. They also don't want bad press themselves, because the media could easily ask what they have been up to.

Concessions Offered[edit]

Consession Results
The nuns get positive attention in the media and are not run out of town... ... but they must be extra careful with what they do, now that they are in the spotlight. It will be some time before they can summon a Bear Wrath again.
The police find a large animal to blame the attacks on... ... and although the case is still open, the media pressure is off and they can proceed slowly. The PCs are known to the police as trouble makers, but no charges have been laid.
The PCs were seen as being in the wrong place at the wrong time... ... but Jack looses his official position at the Consession Street Station. (Unofficially, it is another story.) Allan watched his words a bit too carefully for fear of pissing off his boss and making promises, and got a poor teaching review. His TA duties are restricted to marking, but he still fences at Mohawk. The picture of James is still on the computer system. And Anton ... is Anton.
