A lot. Means I can provide a threat, and you guys can decide<em>how</em>to dispatch it, if it's minor.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=167768.msg7938927#msg7938927">Quote from: ShadowFox89 on 24-03-2013, 22:00:06</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">*raises hand*<br/>My lass, while she can build superscience killing machines, is still in a human body.

One on one, you're probably fine.

I chat with him often, granted, not about NWoD. He probably noticed he hasn't been tagged much and the plot isn't moving, so he hasn't posted here or in the OOC. If you want to discuss stuff with him, I'd shoot him a PM.
