Guess I'm a little early (better I try and do this now rather than in about 5 hours when my typing will be slightly impaired) but Happy New Year everyone!
May 2010 be misty for you all.

Liability Mourneswaith: 13 July 734 Solar sign: Hemlock. Totem: Snapdragon.
UNIVERSALITY BLACK ZEAL (July 13th)
Sign: The Hemlock. Associated virtues: Zeal. Associated vices: Pride, Wrath. Usually considered a negative sign, especially as a totem. As a Black sign the Hemlock is associated with the moon, earth, and water. As a solar sign it often represents a sharp departure from the life path which would seem evident at birth; numerous and dramatic changes in fortune are to be expected. As a totem it represents a passionate and formidable woman, one who is willing to destroy what she cannot claim for her own. Women with this totem are often intensely charismatic, but are generally highly changeable in their attachments. Women with this totem are often taller than the norm, with dark eyes and strong features.
OPPOSITION RED COURAGE (November 24th)
Sign: The Snapdragon. Associated virtues: Courage, Honesty. Associated vices: Wrath, Envy. Generally considered a somewhat positive sign. As a Red sign the Hemlock is associated with Mars, fire, and earth, as well as with the arcane. As a solar sign it predicts struggle with (and usually triumph over) substantial obstacles over the course of one’s life. As a totem it represents a woman who knows her own mind and is not afraid to speak it—a woman both frank and sincere. Those with this totem tend to be direct and to the point, even in situations where a more diplomatic approach might be more appropriate; their strength of will and disdain for any but the most direct approach often leads them into difficulties, although it generally gets them out again as well. Women with this totem tend to be striking in looks (albeit usually more handsome than beautiful) and to have reddish complexions.

M. Agale: 28 December Solar sign: Carpenter ant. Totem: snapping turtle
CHAOS BLACK OBEDIENCE (December 28th)
Symbol: the Carpenter Ant. Associated virtues: Obedience, Diligence. Associated vices: Envy. The Carpenter Ant is considered an ambivalent sign, although more often negative than positive. As a Black sign it is associated with the moon, earth, and water. As a solar sign it represents a life of constant labor, usually out of the public eye, and often subversive of the existing state of things. As a totem it represents a man careful, diligent, and provident, but fundamentally selfish in outlook and goals. Those with the Carpenter Ant totem often amass significant fortunes—and often do so by working on the wrong side of the law. Men with this totem tend to be small and slender, often with long, delicate fingers and toes.
OPPOSITION BLACK WISDOM (December 5th)
Symbol: The snapping turtle. Associated virtues: Wisdom, Diligence. Associated vices: Greed. The Snapping Turtle is a neutral sign, without strong positive or negative connotations. As a Black sign it is associated with the moon, earth, and water. As a solar sign it represents a static life; one with this solar sign is unlikely to make great changes, for good or ill, in the world around him, being devoted to personal and idiosyncratic concerns. As a totem it represents a man tenacious and most often callous, with one overriding goal or objective to which all other concerns must be subordinated. Generally speaking a man with this totem is cold-blooded and with few friends; they are almost always competent but rarely liked. Men with this totem are usually heavyset and often have bad teeth.

Seeing lots of diligence, hmm.
Also, happy New Decade! What a trip it's been. Including my adolesence and early adulthood. Great time to grow up, blah.
On a better note, if you haven't seen Sherlock Holmes I HIGHLY recommend it to Ravenloft fans! It's not very realistic, occult based, and TONS of smashing good Victorian fun.

Alright, Interlude has been closed down, if some friendly Moderator could lock the thread. Also, "Magic!"
Also, ANNOUNCEMENT
In the future, I will no longer be posting the exact time in every DM post. While it's alright when you guys are together, keeping drama time (that is, number of posts passed) and actual time (hours/minutes/seconds) is problematic when people are apart. So I'll just do away with it, since it so rarely matters anyway.
If you need to know the time, you can consult a watch or ask the DM, though it's almost never important.

I second Ms. Nerit's recommendation re: Sherlock Holmes. There's a real mystery in the movie, so its not just shirtless fellows fighting.
I'm pretty sure my original suspect for tonight wasn't responsible, BTW, though I think someone is giving him an opportunity he has been waiting for in order to further their own agenda.
