[DL] A question about binding manitous

["Daphne Brunelle" <dbrune4@po-box.mcgill.ca>]

Hey all!

I know you're probably all tired of hearing me go on and on ad nauseam about
Harrowed problems, but it seems like there's another one looming on the
horizon, namely the Agency (now that my character's been successfully hanged
and shipped out of town *g*), and I could use a hand.
We've got ourselves a MiB in our posse whose mission it is to bring back the
Harrowed character (ie, mine) to Denver where she will either be helped, or
be helped to "move on."
Since I haven't had the chance to look at/purchase the Agency handbook, my
knoweldge of the whole pentagram/binding-of-manitou business is somewhat
limited, and so I was wondering if the rate of success for this ritual is
known, and if so how good it is. I hope the hucksters they have there are
more than reasonably powerful, because I *really* don't feel like ending up
on the wrong side of a flamethrower, if you get my drift.
Anyone got some insight into this?

Thanks in advance,

Daphné

P.S. I promise to find another topic of discussion soon. :-)
