I think I have an extremely unpleasant way around the rules...No Innocence, no deal. I'm really loath to even suggest this, but as a last resort, a traumatized kid is better than a dead one. Is it still a Powers Check if we're inducing a Horror check specifically to save the life of the person it's being induced in?

Also, somebody *please* think of a better idea than this.

Eh, if you do this, you'd be on your own. Kuzan's already wrestling with his own personal Horror, he's not about to unleash one upon someone else, not even in this situation.

That being said, I think things are going to be under wraps soon.

Okay, so those extensive and extremely relevant speeches trump my idea several hundred to one. Note to self: for any given problem, there is usually at least one solution that doesn't involve irreparably traumatizing children...

It might work, mind you.

Of course, swearing yourself into service to an ancient Faerie who doubled as a pre-Sumerian deity also works.

And has the added bonus of Tomas not kicking your ass.

That's good too.

Yeah, didn't say it was a *good* idea (or one that Otto could even have pulled off IC, given his history). I'd say that for any subset of solutions to a given problem, the "Hey, let's irrevocably traumatize a small child" one is near the bottom of the list.

Andre: Human Warlock, Star Pact.

Somehow this no longer seems quite accurate.

Just read that. I'm not sure Ishaq would let anyone kick anyone else's ass tbh

So Fey pact, multiclass feat into cleric, with the possibility of somehow loosing that whole human thing too.

Change is good.

Your build got posted on the optimization boards

A thought: Does the kid's protection extend to not being attacked by goblins? We should probably have a contingency in place just in case we have to get off the plateau with one extra passenger.
