Talk:Brisbane Awakening Lex Magica Brisbane
Regarding trial of Freak
- Different people have different recollections of what occurred, e.g. was the punishment a reprimand or banishment; can we (players) please not edit the page further until the ST has clarified the situation.
- I'm also not sure what format the actual Bronze Law record is in, e.g. is it just collective memories, or an actual written down book.
- If it is written down, then which character is doing the writing; e.g. What Strider records may be different (different level of detail/different selective bias) than what an NPC Silver Ladder may have recorded; similarly if it is in a book does that mean Dresden and/or Dornelia have come in and scribbled something different on the book. Again, I'd like an ST to confirm.

Yeah, that's totally fine! Sorry, Sly. :P I've assumed that the Lex Magica is tended by some random NPC and figured I'd edit it to be slightly more neutral/with some more notes about what happened. Dornelia most definitely does not give a damn about Freak's trial.
But I definitely recall that the punishment was a Severe Reprimand, and not Banishment, which was the main thing I was trying to correct.

The original text had some kind of reprimand, which is what I (as a player) remembered, however other players (Cameron, who also editted the entry) remembered something different, which is why I would like the ST to confirm (at some point).
It is perfectly reasonable that different * characters * could remember things differently, I just want to clarify what type of actual record is there, who is making the record (Strider, NPC, etc), what does it say, and did any other character come in and edit the record (scribble notes, etc).

After discussions (email) with both Nathan L. and Owen, I have updated the Trial of Freak. It is written as if Strider (as a Silver Ladder acolyte) has recorded it in the Lex, and then added notes later based on what others have raised, i.e. this is kind of what other characters would find if they wanted to look the Lex.
Of course I, as a player, can make mistakes that my character, Strider, would not, so you are still welcome to change or add, although I prefer it would be kept in a similar style. You are also welcome to do it in an in character style, e.g. "Scrawled in the margin: This trial was a sham!"
