Given the debauchery going on within, Elena and the Van Dorn women are left alone by the other occupants of the house, giving Elena a large amount of time to do her magic without being disturbed. Spoiler: Telepathy Roll D100: 73 (Pass), 49 (Fail) Her first use of telepathy works well, but her second fails to provide any bonus to the indoctrination process Spoiler: Brainwashing Roll D100: 15+15 (Successful telepathy)=30 (Fail), 75 (Pass) Putting the two women into the machines for a few hours, Elena is unable to get any results from the mother, but she's able to put the daughter well into the first stage of indoctrination.
(Heh. Understandable, just thought she might just suffer permanent horniness or something, since she absorbed the sphere's power, turning it into... well, a normal paperweight. But alright, guess she'll have a new accessory.) "Aaaahn." Vizelle shuddered as she felt her power increase, "Fufu... fufufu." She cooed, stroking the stone, deciding to embedded it into a choker for her to wear. (Huh, guess she's Yennefer now. ) And unless anyone needs her for something, the sorceress rests for the night.
{come one, give a good throw, be a good dice - how many times she can repeat the tries before someone interrupts them?} As time passes, Elena decided that she could not take many risks. She would leave the daughter to her brainwashing and concentrate on her mother. Hopefully, the brainwashing machine and the full power of her telepathy will break the resistance of woman.
“I see...” Eanne gave the professor a 'yeah, right' look, clearly not convinced, but decided not to press the issue for the moment. “Well, your mechs are certainly impressive. Is that what you specialize in? Or do you have expertise in other fields as well?” She decided to learn a bit more about the professor before moving on to the main topic.
(We could also do that.) She awakens the next morning, Verner nudging her to tell her that the siblings are about to head out.
(Well, I mean both could work. One would be addiction to a normal stone, or we could have her suffer increase sensitivity, so negative rolls to any touching.) "Aahn. Thank you dear, go ahead and prepare for your own mission." Vizelle said with a smile as she puts on her usual clothes, and heads down to make sure everyone knows what their task is.
(It'll be up to a roll, with an increasing penalty stacking with each try) Spoiler: Detection Roll D100: 89 Listening out, she hears no one coming. Spoiler: Telepathy Roll D100: 42 (Fail) Sadly, the mother's passive defences are too strong, and she resists any influence. Spoiler: Brainwashing Roll D100: 30 (Fail) Sadly, the mother's mind remains her own.
"Generally this, as well as cybernetics, and some proficiency with virtual intelligence." She looks at Eanne, launching into a detailed technical overview of her work.
Eanne listened carefully, nodding along and making mental notes – there was no way to know when this sort of thing would come in handy. “I see... very interesting... I can tell you are quite passionate about your work...” The noblewoman commented with a smile when the professor finished her explanation. “As enjoyable as talking to you and learning about the things you do is, let us move on to the main reason I am here...”
{you know what... switch my dice with asddas193's. His dice are certainly cheating} Cursing, Elena released the daughter and gave her instructions to stop anyone from entering. Before concentrating on mother, one last time. Elena turned of the brainwashing device and released the daughter. "Mistress..." She started. At this level, the subject would only accept suggestions of members of the Jade order, not straight orders. "You came so much that you almost lost consciousness. Why don't you allow me to finish pleasuring your mother in a little game she set up, and turn away anyone who would interrupt your mother's pleasure. Just, please, Mistress, if the lord was coming, quickly let me know." With that, Elena returned to work.
"So we've found our killer. We just need to find out why our killer was involved..." Arkhis remarks, going back over the security footage to try and work out where the insectoid might have headed off to after leaving the apartment.
"So long as the faithful see justice and atonement Your Eminence." Yannika bowed her head respectfully. Yannika made no move or effort to deny the cardinal access to her body; in fact she pressed her ass back against his erection and ground herself against it. His obvious appreciation of her body managed to excite her despite her misgivings about the state of the church. "Of course Your Eminence-" she replied, "I would be pleased to attend; you honor me with such festivities." With another farewell, Yannika returned to the palace to check up on how things were proceeding on Lave V.
A lot of the science goes over Eanne's head, but she manages to note down the general areas of interest to Isabella. "Yes, yes." Isabella nods. "The taxes, I understand."
Spoiler: Persuasion Roll d100: 67+15 (Indoctrinated)=82 (Pass) Nodding, the daughter goes to watch the door, grinning at the depravity.
"Good. But first." Vizelle then produces two collars, complete with leashes. "I take it you know what to do? It would be odd if your prisoners looked too clean, no?" She said as she hands the collars to Xi Fei.
Spoiler: Awareness Roll D100: 31 (Fail) Try as he might, Arkhis can't pick up any footage indicating where the killer went after the victim's death.
The cardinal grins and smacks her ass as she leaves. Spoiler: Awareness Roll D100: 10 (Fail) Yannika encounters nothing of interest besides admiring glances as she makes her way back to the palace. Heading to a secure communications room, she finds a hologram waiting for her, displaying Rhaiya, the priestess smiling. "Yannika! Good to see you."
A little more secure, Elena returned to brainwashing the lady, with both the machine and her psychic abilities.
Yannika smiled at the hologram of the woman. "Sister Rhaiya, likewise. I just wanted to call and check in on you and the rest of Lave V, see how you were doing. I've talked with a cardinal, and he'll see to it that the Archbishop and Cardinal that you people beseeched for help will be punished for their failures. How's sister Barra? Has she recovered yet? How've you found the Sect of the Sapphire Hearth, is there anything I could help you with?"
