But they did use it in the film, and so I can quote it as a source which contains that quote. Like if a writer was quoting something, but you didn't know that he was quoting something, then you could quote from him. I mean it's a bit difficult to attribute to a source which you don't know exists. I think that's right, sometimes I find it difficult to follow my logic. Anyway, I am justified in using it. So there.

As I understand it, for servitors of Janus, large locales are divided into smaller groups (can't remember how cannon phrased it and my stuff is inaccessible at the moment). To use the San Diego area as an example, would this not mean that a servitor of Janus could: 1. Live (Crash with friends) in Oceanside, Carlsbad, Imperial Beach, Clairmont, etc (living in one locale is iffy, I know)... 2. Work at Domino's located in Imperial Beach (cruises all the locales in a 20 mile area... 3. Plays at the clubs in multiple areas in the SoCal area... 4. Does "mission" work throughout and even heads into northern Mexico and LA on occassion. If this jives with memory, said Ofanite is living in an "area" although you might have to hit half the clubs, fast foods and what not in what is commonly referred to as San Diego to actually locate the fellow. The only problem I see with the setup is the idea of showing up for work at a 'certain' time and place on a schedule. Then again, if he's really that good, and a bit consistent he might have an informal relationship with a couple of different restraunts to work, acting as a floater and (usually) showing up just when things are going nuts By the way, I LOVE the Dark Victory scenarios.

The assumption is that RANDOM summonings only hit beings with vessels. Summons specifically targeted at a named being usually just fails if that being has no vessel. I've proposed canon that would let you summon such a being and create a flawed pseudo-vessel for them. - -- ___________________________________________________ / \ | John Karakash - Lucent Technologies/Bell Labs | | (919)388-2665(COOL) MIB2300 | | | | The power to tax involves the power to destroy. | | -Chief Justice Marshall | \___________________________________________________/ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Feb 1999 15:57:41 -0500 From: John Karakash - Lucent ASCC Subject: Re: IN> Re: Hearts Walter Milliken wrote: > > >>From: Elizabeth McCoy > >>. 185 -- "But don't touch them, they're demon's Hearts.
