I know there was a short story in one of them too, which one had the short story?

And thanks for answering the questions Tallyrand

There's a writeup of Harry telling some Wardens in training about how he almost botched a phobophage infestation in OW if that's what you mean.

Given the waxing and waning nature of the courts, maybe Spring and Autumn are in wane during this era and in a few thousand years they'll be waxing again while Summer and Winter will be waning.

That's more "room for growth" and "slots for potions".

Probably could have used a line to mention that 

Yeah... that's probably a goof-up.

Which one, Maria or Russel?

But I do not recall her denying using them though.

Yeah, but if she doesn't state that she uses them, and she states that she reads about them in response to a reaction of "how can you use them without frying them", I think the default assumption here is that she doesn't have any practical experience with them.

Also the game mentions in her writeup that "Computers-the theory of, at least-are her hobby.

In a game I'm playing in, my character is a stated technomancer. She is very good at hex wards, and she has designed a magic laptop (It's described as a two-way voodoo doll to a very delicately woven thaumaturgical link to a computer. She uses the Sight to place the magic in such a way as to not fry the circuitry and layers in a hex buffer to direct hex effects away from the hardware). It's quite complex.

I had an idea for a new trapping for Endurance that I figure I'd share (after I realized the stunt I based on it was pretty crappy), but I figure I would open it up to any new trapping ideas you've had.

So, without further ado I present my new trapping for Endurance

Endurance

Take The Hit.

Rather than avoiding damage, you know you can take it, whether it be through size, supernatural toughness, regeneration, armor or some combination thereof. Calculate your Hardiness rating against the attack. This is equal to your Armor + your highest Physical Stress Box + the level of Recovery (1 for Inhuman, 2 for Supernatural, 3 for Mythic) -4, and cannot be less than 1. If the attack would satisfy your Catch, you do not get the bonuses provided by your Toughness or Recovery powers. Furthermore, the defense negates size-based attack bonuses and can be used when surprised (though an opponent can Tag a Surprised Aspect on the defender). If the defender's Hardiness is equal to or greater than the attack's Weapon Rating, then they may roll Endurance to take the hit. However, this can risky. If the defender chooses to Take The Hit, but the Weapon Rating is higher than the defender's Hardiness, they can only defend against the attack at Poor (-1).

For example, Reginald is being attacked by a Troll. He unloads his semi-automatic into it, but the Troll is not vulnerable to those kinds of bullets, so it defends by Taking The Hit. The Troll's Hardiness is 7 (4 base from the stress boxes provided by a Good endurance, 2 from Hulking Size, 2 from the stress boxes provided by Inhuman Toughness, 1 from Armor provided by Inhuman Toughness, 2 from Superhuman Recovery, -4), while the bullets are only Weapon Rating 2. The Troll can use its Good Endurance as opposed to its Fair Athletics, and Reginald does not get +1 due to the size difference.

Reginald's friend Rick, on the other hand, has a shotgun, and many shotgun shells have steel pellets. He fires at the Troll, and his player successfully Makes a Declaration that the Troll is stupid and inexperienced with mortal firearms, so it overconfidently tries to Take The Hit. Because the shotgun satisfies the Troll's Catch, the Troll's Hardiness against the shotgun is only 2 (4 from Good Endurance, 2 from Hulking Size, no Toughness or Recovery, -4). The Shotgun has a Weapon Rating of 3, and is therefore effective. The Troll rolls at -1 as it stupidly blunders into the attack, and Rick gets +1 against the Troll because of the size difference.

and it would be the right time to get some eye sized nifty item of power.
