The base level is +4 for Mike's game unless you took 'poor' in character creation.

Vanyra's a little strapped for cash since she hasn't been getting as many contracts lately (got an 8, rolled a 4)

Just clarification the TV of 16 would be for 3 tickets on the direct airship, while the milk-run route would be a TV of 14.

Yeah, everyone has +4 from the start unless you have modifiers like the Wealth perk. Each rank of the Wealth perk gives you +4 to wealth checks.

You have to roll on Wealth checks, you cannot take 10 or 20. If the item you're buying has a TV more than your bonus then if you can buy it your wealth bonus is reduced by 1 temporarily until you can accumulate more money.

Vanyra paying the rent seems to have depleted hers :P

So it looks like you are all taking the slow boat unless Brett wants to make a Wealth check roll for Yuu, given his bonus it is pretty much a given he could get tickets for everyone on at least the multi-stop airship if he so desired.

I should be able to secure us some air ship tickets, that'll allow us to stay in Ossylia longer. Yuu likes his cushy life.

So is that one day in the air the entire time?  Vanyra's going to be bouncing off the walls, can't wait.

Yes, pretty much a whole day in the air... you're travelling thousands of kilometers.

Brett please make a Wealth check, and let me know if you want the direct airship or the slower one.

Sure, before I do, can you just confirm the PM, please?

Also I think one that has a couple stops along the way might be fun. See some sights on the way south-eastward.

So unless there's any other particular preparations you guys need to do we'll jump ahead to the departure.

Wait, Zelpuz will quickly get that thing that we will need half way through the adventure and would be easy to get here but impossible there and we all think that we should have thought of that. You'll know what I am talking about when we get to that situation.
Besides that, do we still have/keep those walkie-talkies? A simple communication device over (short) distances seems extremely useful.

Chapter 9 OOC

So I've added a new map that details your travel route to Daedalum. Go to Game Map, then scroll to the bottom and select map 5 from the drop down.

It'll be a 3 day trip:
Day 1: Ossylia to Escarmina in the Equatorial City State Alliance
Day 2 morning: Escarmina to Byzantier, two different city states in the alliance.
Day 2 afternoon: Byzantier to Vargrun (an independent city state at the head of the Hakran River)
Day 3: Vargrun to Daedalem by going around the Gorgomnema Mountains.

You'll only have a couple of hours in Byzantier, but you'll be staying overnight at the other places. There are some berths on the airship, but they cost extra. Otherwise you can arrange accommodations at the destination cities; the airline can assist in that. It will actually be more pricey to stay in the airship berths that most of the places you would be able to get in the destination cities. Only if you're staying at top-tier places would it be the same or cheaper.

If you guys wish to do anything, see anything during these short stopovers let me know. But if you're just going to stay on the airship then there's little possibility of anything happening.

I assume we (and esp. Vanyra) want to get out at the stop overs. And taking a look around would not hurt. Might be a good opportunity to check in with the local Order there and see if I can send a note to the headquarters (or if I am on the wanted list). Maybe I can even contact Myrria somehow.

Other than that, see the most important sight-seeing sites and see what the hot topics in the local pubs are.

Yuu would like to pick up a guide book to these places, definitely explore a little time allowing.

Even if Vanyra doesn't realize it right now, after hours in a confined space, she will want to get out and about.

OK, Sounds good. We'll move ahead with the first stopover then. I'll have something for up hopefully tomorrow night.

Also, I'm heading to Japan next Thursday through the 22nd on vacation, so I will not likely be posting during that time.

Just a heads up I'm heading out 7 hours to Japan so I'll be MIA for a while. I'll try to continue this thread in the downtime while travelling.

How many hours do we have here? I know our flight out is the next morning, but just a general hour count.

I'm back.

You'll have about 30 hours in total in this city before you fly off to the next one. It's just after morning now.

Did I sign up as a Freelancer, too, or is Zelpuz just 'tagging along'?

My understanding is that Zelpuz is not actually a Freelancer.

Being a member of the Order of Ashes somewhat precludes him from being a regular member of the Freelancers, but he could have an independent contractor's license with the Freelancers.
