The US Capitol Rotunda (Random/Wild)

The US Capitol Rotunda (Random/Wild)

You place your bets, and you take your chances.

The problem is that too many people on the corporeal plane have too many opinions on what the US Capitol in Washington DC is actually symbolic of. Normally, that would just ensure that no actual Tether would form at all, but even low probability events will come up sometime. In this case, the solution was to link to all of the evenly marginally likely Superior-level Words, in order: the difficulty is that the locus cycles through the possible endpoints so quickly that any user could end up at any number of Principalities.

Roll 666 for each user:

TN2 Flowers/Death
TN3 Creation/The Media
TN4 The Wind/Theft
TN5 Trade/Freedom
TN6 Judgment/The Game
TN7 Stone/Factions
TN8 Destiny/Fate
TN9 War/The War
TN10 Dreams/Nightmares
TN11 Divine Fire/Infernal Fire
TN12 Lightning/Technology

An odd CD indicates a Divine endpoint; an even one, Infernal. On a triple 1, all members of the group jumping through are dumped into the middle of the Seraphim Council; on a triple six, they end up in front of Lucifer's Throne.

Both Heaven and Hell would dearly love to stabilize this particular wild Tether, or even shut it down. Unfortunately, every expert sent in to investigate agrees that it'd be impossible to do without destroying the physical locus, which is, of course, impractical. So both sides have pretty much decided to grit their teeth, and wait. They've also both warned off their Servitors from using the place, not that it was really necessary. Very few celestials like to play Russian Roulette for real.

Seneschal: None
Heaven has a Kyriotate of Stone stashed away in the statuary, and Hell makes sure that there's always a Shedite of Technology being typed on in the area, but all attempts to assign a Seneschal were... messy. They eventually stopped trying.

I'm not sure about the Lightning/Tech one, but it fits better that way...

And if one of the dice falls on the floor, it winds up at a minor Cathedral/Principality?

Well, you could replace it with The Sword / Dark Humor. Or just send them anywhere amusing. :)
