Dark Souls 2 Night One – The Fall of the Giant In some impossibly dank chamber hundreds of feet beneath the forest floor, the Chosen Undead faces the Last Giant, quite alone. By now the Chosen’s found blade has been replaced with a sturdy axe, supplemented by a strange enchantment the Chosen has picked up along the way. The battle is fierce, as the Chosen darts among the tree-sized legs of the Last Giant, striking when the opportunity arises. It’s a high-risk game, because one fortunate step by the lumbering ancient thing could quickly rob the Chosen Undead of its “Un.” In extremity, the Last Giant tears its own left arm off with its right to wield it as a club, lengthening its reach and power to even greater… er… lengths. But the Chosen is nimble and strong, and soon the Last Giant is simply one of the Former Giants, its once proud race now extinct.
Whatever weapons or magic Patricia possessed, I’m afraid, were rather less effective against the two-hundred foot drop from the cliff in Majula. The fall killed her quite thoroughly, and she staggered back into the town later that evening significantly more lopsided than she had begun.
Patricia is now HOLLOW.
--- Night One begins here, and will end at approximately 3:00PM Eastern time on Saturday, August 16.

2. Meeko is full of it, if every player begins with one or more power: 3. Powers Every player begins with one or more powers. In most cases, a player may use only a single power per Day/Night Cycle; exceptions will be explicitly noted in the power description in the role PM. Unlike in the prior game, powers are innate to the player possessing them and cannot be passed from player to player. All powers cost one or more souls to use (see below); if you are out of souls, you may not use a power.

And, one final piece of information;
I am currently breadcrumbing that I've breadcrumbed.

Where is #1, Meeko?
Are you trying to say that while you might have a power, you have no souls left with which to use it? If so, that is very different than getting a vanilla role, wouldn't you say?

I recommend against reading into it any further than that.

Having said that, if we have merchants in this go around, make me an offer. Please.

Tell me, Mr.Anderson, what is the use of talking, if you can't speak? I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier. You've for it backwards CookiesNo no. I have Souls, but I'm powerless to use them. I have no way to use them.

#1 was my question about Swammer's covenant.
As for Meeko's lack of power, I'd appreciate any example where his claim and the mod's clarification can both be valid.
Meeko, do you have a passive power, that activates under certain circumstances? Is your power informational? Or is the really no section named "abilities" in your role PM?

I wanted to stop by and say farewell - as it wasn't enough for me to be hollow day one I was also poisoned!
I guess I may have a small hope the person who could cure me may show up before the end of this night. But with the total lack of posts and posters that seem unlikely.
Storyteller, this seem to be a great setup and I for one I'm sorry to see such a lack of active players.

There are a great many actions not submitted as we near the end of Night One. In the interest of not completely borking the game, I'm allowing a brief extension. I will end the Night promptly at 10:00AM on Sunday morning. This will be the ONLY extension I will grant due to missing actions. Get them in, folks!

Unlike most players in this game, you have neither a passive nor an active ability.

Storyteller, this seem to be a great setup and I for one I'm sorry to see such a lack of active players. There is not much use talking in the night when we still don't know anything. If you want someone to save you maybe you should give them a reason to do so. You basically disappeared for the last two days of the game. If you are town, I'm sorry. You have not acted in a towny manner. Were you poisoned before dusk? When did you learn you were poisoned? Why did you wait til the end of Night to mention this? These are the questions we ask everyDay>>>>>

I am here and am reading - but I didn't have anything to add since the Day 1 results didn't give us any further information. I was a bit confused about Meeko's breadcrumbing and couldn't figure out what he was getting at, but it's been somewhat clarified now (having souls but no way to use them). The only thing I can think of is that the Merchants in the previous game didn't have any intrinsic abilities, but could have a lot of souls. That said, this game is supposed to have only intrinsic powers - so powers or abilities can't be transferred between players. This makes me think that we may not have merchants at all in this game - unless they are just selling soapstones.
I also agree with Sinjin in that it's a shame Patricia didn't say something sooner than 30 minutes before the (initial) end of Day. How would anyone know you were poisoned in order to help you?

I don't know what to think, seeing as it's the end of Night and there is no sign on any merchants, it leads me tl believe we may not have any.
Patricia's play is not very townie at all. Night has been 2 full days at this point. I just don't get it.
And OOG/ My family is going to the mountains for vacation. We'll be gone until the 23rd. I will try to check in at night depending on what the wifi situation is like, I can't remember if the cabin has wifi out there.
