[Takes place during the Kingsbridge tourney.] (I have assumed her husband is not present, but if that would be unheard of, I can edit.) [Whitewalls] Speak to Erena Blackbriar - Status (Reputation) +Chivalry: 6d6k4+2 21(Unsure if modified by our extant Disposition)
There is someone Trystane has been meaning to speak to again since Summerhall, especially knowing what he had now learned from Laena, so when he spots her watching the jousting, he approaches her in the stands. "Lady Erena. A pleasure to see you again. May I join you?" he asks, bowing respectfully. |

"But of course, Ser Trystane" Erena is warm and welcoming, reportedly pregnant but it hardly shows yet.

With a bright smile, he takes a seat beside her, half watching the activity on the field.
"Are you enjoying the tourney so far? Does your Lord husband intend to join the lists?"
[Figured a little light intro would suffice before jumping into Intrigue]

"It is Kingsbridge, how could I not, ser?" Whether she means it or just so happens to be courteous one cannot quite say, the latter is true in any case.

Erena motions for Trystane to go on.
You're forgetting initiative, free action and chivalry bonus to ID/Composure. Should be 12/14 by my calculations. Free Deception: 5d6k4 20 2 DoS for +2 ID. Intrigue Iniative: 6d6k4 22ID: 14 DR: 4 Composure: 12 Objective: Can't think of anything specific she's after, so let's do friendship. |

Have updated previous post.
"I will be as direct as I dare, my lady."
He keeps his voice quiet, but tries not to lean in so close as to be inappropriate.
"It is my understanding that you have a somewhat different point of view from the rest of your House with regards to certain matters of state. I have no doubt that you are nonetheless treated well, but, if there comes a time that things become fraught and you require assistance - of any kind - I would like you to know that House Starkwood, and I personally as a member of it, are here for you, should political loyalties strain the familial bonds."

Nah, but you should redo the awareness with d6's, and remember that charismatic applies to all tests (but she still wins initiative).

I've redone it. No idea how I managed to do d5s instead of d6s, but dang it my roll was worse this time.
By the way, is her DR4 accounting for the +2 to Disposition I get from Attractive and/or the +1 Disposition from A Midsummer Night's Feast?

Erena politely suggests that she is merely supporting her lord husband and her house, and that she does not find herself particularly alone in that regard, so no, she does not feel alone at all. She does miss her son, though, and if House Starkwood and the knights sworn to it's service were to go beyond their highly regarded sense of honor and duty to insure his safety and happiness, she can scarce think of anything she might desire more.
And bastard drawback. Awareness failed in the first place (and naive also affects it), so no great loss. You also should list composure per DoS. ID: 14 DR: 4 Composure: 7/12 Persuasion R1-2: 2#7d6r1k4 24 22Does a BoA +2 on the second test for 3*4-3=9 influence on both tests. |

"What cold-hearted person could deny such a request from a loving mother?" Erena's concern for her son genuinely warms Trystane's heart, and indeed reminds him of his own mother back in Sunspear. "Of course I shall do as my lady asks. I will gladly see to it that Joffrey thrives at Starkwood, and look out for him as I would my own kin." It was an easy request to accede to. Trystane was already keeping an eye on Symon, so what was one more person to look in on? And besides, he rarely said no to a pretty face, even one he had no chance with. Perhaps being reminded of his own mother, separated from and worried for her son, that made him want to help without asking anything in return.
ID: 12 Composure: 5/14 Frustration: 0 Disposition: Amiable Objective: Friendship (Not sure if the roll is still needed if he's agreeing to her request unconditionally, but here it is just in case) Kingsbridge - Get friendlier with Erena - Persuasion (Charm) +Chiv +Char: 6d6k4+3 232DoS - 2*3-4 = 2 Influence (per DoS? Was that what you meant by Composure per DoS?) |

Yes, 3 Composure per DoS with charm, means 2 influence through her DR.
Also she rolled twice because she won initiative and thus would roll before or after your first test, which should force you to take 2 frustration as you're taking 18 influence total.
ID: 14
DR: 4
Composure: 5/12
Objective: Friendship

[So I guess what I'm trying to do is yield, but I'm not sure how to do that narratively in a way that isn't what I just wrote already.]
ID: 12
Composure: 5/14
Frustration: 2
Disposition: Amiable
Objective: Friendship
Yielding - Will do as Erena asks. Not sure what else to cede.

Charm technique with friendship objective tends to be disposition increases (+2 would probably be fair given where the intrigue is headed), additional looking after Joffrey might be the result of liking her more.
