Call for Death Mage helpers

[emet_sulk]

Hello Avalon! We require some Death Mages to help out with a certain task involving the Fisher King.

Current helpers:
- Emet-Selch
- Walter Dornez
- Hijikata

We require ONE OR TWO MORE death mages (Hor is being offered as the last spot if we cannot find a final member) in order to facilitate this plot. Interested parties would be told that the plan is to help overpower the Fisher King's curse but Emet-Selch will be extremely fussy and only take those who don't seem to have overt ulterior motives.

I can offer Thanatos as a potential but previous interaction with Emet-Selch doesn't give him much inclination to offer assistance of his own volition.

He may, however, agree if asked directly (and politely).

Given he's a god of death he has no reason to have ulterior motives here if the situation is fully explained to him and I expect his character can be vouched for by Hijikata.

Hijikata would vouch for Thanatos alright! We can also assume that Hijikata reached out to him to ask for his help with this.

[inevitablerest]

If it's Emet-Selch's plan then Thanatos would be of the opinion it should be him who is doing the asking.

[mayoninofukucho]

Right - he hatched the plan, so it's probably best if communications run through him! Hijikata will still vouch for Thanatos' trustworthiness.

[emet_sulk]

If you guys like, we can say Hijikata tried asking Thanatos and when Thanatos said that Emet should ask, he told Emet to go ask Thanatos? Although Emet is kind of dubious about asking the guy when he seems so sensitive.

[mayoninofukucho]

That adds up, let's roll with that! Hijikata has negative stats on diplomacy, but he'll gas Emet and Thanatos up to each other without hesitation if needed. They both have been invaluable death magic mentors to him!

Lmao Hiji you're a good friend.

if you want/still have an opening, cleveland here can be offered as the second spot.

[emet_sulk]

Yep, with Cleveland and Thanatos we would have the full five. Would she(?) voluntarily offer/be willing if asked? (Just so I have an idea of how Emet will react if they meet again later.)

[clevebro]

She'd volunteer for it freely when asked!

[emet_sulk]

Awesome! He appreciates the help /thumbs up

[clevebro]

She's got your back bruh!

Just adding a note here that Walter would readily ask Horus because they (kind of?) live together now.

[hor]

It looks like they probs have 5 so Horus will be like /o/ "It's fine, you got this Walter!!" since he doesn't like advertising he's a death mage because of his daddy issues. (He'll be where he's needed, but since he's not needed, he'll go do whatever he wants.)

Cue exasperated grumpy gestures.

Fine, Horus. Go play.
