They said nothing about not sharing this info, so... [Post-Ball]
Hey, while we're all here and all ourselves?
My... Patron God? Ruling Arcanum? Not sure what the right word here is... gave me a list of what all of the Arcana are like, according to them.
Penuel is a they, by the way. Definitely not a "she." I asked.
Anyway, I'm going to text you the document verbatim before properly archiving it in the Leonardo Memorial Library or whatever.
How accurate is this according to your own perceptions? They seem to have a particular hate-on for ROSE, because to hear them tell it she flagrantly cheats at everything for the lulz - but Judgement strikes me as super duper Lawful - try not to be shocked - while the stunt ROSE pulled for the Vale makes me inclined to think she's not Evil, just Chaotic.
...people have played D&D here, right? Or do I need to unpack that?
PS: If I ever meet the Priestess I'm calling her Io. It's probably a new name for her and I think she'd be delighted.

[Having met both, Raidou can say with a decent amount of authority that there is a Difference between the two.]
Judgement doesn't seem to be fond of rule-breakers or rule-benders in general. Magician broke or bent the rules to send us to the Jaunt world Lovers and Devil imprisoned Hermit in to find and release him. Empress and Lovers have claimed people out of turn. And it was infighting between Hermit, Lovers, and Devil which led to Hierophant's death.
[As for D&D, whatever knowledge Raidou has of it is probably via Thorne and/or Gil.]
Judgement, incidentally, has tried their hands at a 'heist.' Magician intimated to an overlay of mine that it didn't go well - I think it was probably Melasurei, a Jaunt we failed.

...Let me see if I have the timeline right. Psyche and Satan imprisoned the Hermit, which I'm guessing they weren't allowed to do. Everyone else thought he had just flounced, because he's the Hermit. ROSE, because being smart is her thing, figured it out felt the only way she could free him was personally - and hijacking a Jaunt.
And the whole cluster... the whole mess idiomatically refuted Cephas. The Heirophant. Who represents...
Morality.
Yeah. Yeah that would refute the embodied idea of "aren't you tired of going apeshit, don't you just want to be nice."

Magician's rescue was later.

[She lived for three months in a computer simulation and saw what glitches and viruses looked like from the inside. There is nothing but anger radiating from Deedee's side of the link.]
It's a damn good thing neither of them can win the round.

Bad.
No wonder Penuel told me that they had messed up and that they were trying to redeem themselves.

They were probably referring to Moebius, which they do still feel a lot of guilt for. Had a dungeon for it and everything.

[private, protected; cw: Moebius]
In practice, it was a punishment Jaunt. Those of us who weren't Infiltrating got dosed with gases that induced murderous rage and then set on each other, then revived to do it all over again and again and again and hopefully start taking our captors - who were all Infiltrators - down with us. The Jaunt ended when all the Infiltrators were killed. Death and Devil came up with it, but Judgement was one of the ones who pushed for a punishment Jaunt, because of what happened during and after the strike Jaunt. It broke us so badly we collectively lost our memories of it and all the Jaunts that happened up to that point, and I don't think Judgement ever forgave themself for that.
The next two Jaunts weren't necessarily as bad from an objective standpoint, but they broke us further, to the point that most people just... gave up, on the second of those two Jaunts. And that in turn killed Star, who was running that one, which Judgement also probably didn't forgive themself for. They ended up retreating into the worst kind of authoritarian bullshit attitude, like every awful authority figure I've ever met rolled into one. There's a reason a lot of Travelers still hate and distrust Judgement.
presumably you have Psi Protect II?
I didn't want to know but I needed to.
I'm so sorry.
she only has I; she's trying to block her own words from being overheard because of Star
The dungeon was relatively recent; it took them that long to admit they had a problem they needed help with.

But it failed, so Priestess had to disguise herself as my spirit bunny and sneak into Questing Country to learn how to make a valence instead and that's how my girl finally stopped the goddamn horrorterrors from sticking their metaphorical tentacles into our dreamstuff.
She was adorably smug about it, too.
no subject
Also you don't just drop that the King in Yellow is real on someone without preamble what the fuck.
[She was going to ask about Questing Country and the Valence but priorities.]
