"I should have some leads tomorrow, just let the narrator have a heads up about which ones to follow so he can detail them. Adding a little more muscle to our group might be a good idea, and Gorgath is about to be free ."

"One is going to be a limited hex crawl, one a dungeon near the hexcrawl, and another is a local hit and run, the kind you have to blow town after"

Re: Out of Character 6

A "hex crawl" is usually a wilderness 'adventure' where the goal of the adventure is exploring.  Literally "crawling through hexes" in the way that a "dungeon crawl" is an adventure in a dungeon... but in a dungeon crawl the goal is treasure, whereas with a hex crawl the goal is exploration (but is usually still filled with killing things and taking their stuff).

Broderick's Expedition is a hex crawl in the sewers at this point (mapping and exploring).

Is it wise sending a pyromaniac into possibly flammable sewers??

Also, should Melchizadek drop in to the Wastrels Hope to join them, or is there something Ulo and Gorgath will be doing?

Re: Out of Character 6

Well I'm sure I'd take pretty big exception to walking through knee deep 'sewer stuff'.

I'd prefer a forest. But ultimately, what will give him the best chance of getting a ship ;) or fleet. Or castle, or army...

Hmm, hex crawls seem to be quite open ended - but could still be fun - a forest would be an interesting one given our current party.

"The hexcrawl involves accomanyibg a caravan into Valdassya, not overly far from a potentially lootable target... or so it seems. The caravan route allows for points to be spent on language and survival skills so that you can head off on your own after."

Gareth can create an army for you...of barely sentient fire elementals! Him in a forest, that could also be interesting. Is it bushfire season? I mean, with Gareth it is always bushfire season, but how badly will such a fire catch and spread?

forest fires are a natural process in the forest. Woodelves should be fine with them :D

In reply to Haveron Stormwal (msg # 348):

Very first world issue: my building's elevator broke down Thursday and just went back in service this evening, so I  jumped on the opportunity to do all the laundry so that wouldn't eat my entire day off.
That said I have a limited time to post, but I used the wifi free time to
Flesh out enough of the options for Amelia's rumors that all three opportunities can in fact be used in sequence. Any local gigs not pursued make an opportunity to the Juniors, at a different difficulty level. (Shit that crew needs a payday, as cost of living is killing them even with a newish house.

What about the other leftovers from the pit crew...should Gorgath, Ulo and myself tag along to the Wastrels, or is there something else happening?

Re: Out of Character 6

Have to credit those guards in the Silver Jade Palace.  They probably recognize both Jin (or his tetsubo) and Chou-Zhen, and they're still standing their ground over what they think is a pestilence spirit.

Not that it's going to help them...

I would prefer that Gareth and Melchizidek be in separate threads, but Gorgat is definitely welcome. The queston for you is how many fire mages do you want to play at once?

Re: Out of Character 6

I think our current crew is getting to a reasonable capacity.


We currently have:

Var
Sorscha
Mischa
Berry
Amelia
Gareth
Shroud
Haveron

8 is a pretty big number right now.  I guess some of the 'allies' will be handled with wide strokes but ultimately getting to be quite a bit to manage right now.

I would, of course, enjoy more people to join my proto-company of useful people. As it's all playing perfectly well into Haveron's goals

(Ultimately become the captain/commander of a company that initially works like a mercenary one, but intends to expand into multiple other roles).

:D

Possibly Gorgath, if he is interested, and Gareth's player has a cleric but I try to have one player per character.
