We never catch everything. We caught a lot, it was pretty average.

Ugh, really? I was hoping that was especially bad. How much of that was prevented? All of it? None?

Also why tell a precog instead of publishing to some sort of recognized list of eclipse disasters (which could be as simple as #2017Eclipse on Twitter); since the latter would be useful (to emergency response teams and news orgs) with or without precognition I expect follow-through rate on that would be greater.

"Tell a precog" includes "make it known to precogs in systematic ways like that".

In Course of performance I had been hoping that Sadde was Solomon or worked with him or something.

[pedromvilar]

Sadde's flattered that you think their Seal's gonna get as good as Solomon's (not that they don't, but you know, external validation), but thinks they can do much better than Solomon did (granted, Solomon probably had a much tougher going at the time, but).

[DanielH]

Yeah, I would have been disappointed if they were Solomon, which is why I also thought they might work with him to make a better Seal the first time around.

Brand new person here! Just started reading all this craziness about a month ago (So much material, it was ridiculous). Not sure where to post this, but this seemed like a decent spot - it occurred to me that a Bell covered in tattoos, maybe from a world with a tattoo-based magic system, landing in Arda could be interesting.

[Alicorn]

WELL now my brain is trying to invent a tattoo-based magic system

[NemesisNecrosis]

Mwahahahahahahaaa

"You only have so much skin. Use it well."

"You have a tattoo of an X and can therefore turn into or summon an X" has been done a lot. Either do not-that or elaborate on it thoroughly.

How should the system treat "temporary tattoos"/henna?
