DF 8 Treasure tables, pg 17 for various garments (and jewelry).  Probably less than 40% if they are still soiled at point of sale.

Good thing there's a cleric around that can cast Clean on such an item before you try to sell it.  Donations to the future Temple of Sethygg are always appreciated.  :P

Nothing seems to have happened in Sneaking In -- did the sneakers get lost?  The rest of us at the Silver Jade Palace are waiting for the earth shattering kaboom panic and chaos...

If only he were conveniently located near the Guild instead off Cleaning an old abandoned abbey.

I'm just sayin... he could be here cleaning crap out of the pants of this dead guy instead of cleaning crap off shrines and windows...


Granted, I bet the window cleaning business pays better than this pants cleaning business.

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 171):

For those who need to know, fireproof underclothing is better handled by spell than by alchemy. While alchemist's aprons and or the fire resistant robe worn by ninja aware of fire using enemies, asbestos undergarments do worse than itch, and only have advantages over the fireproof spell when faced with dispell magic.


I might be a bit scarce for a bit, working out some issues at home.

Re: Out of Character 6

There is no "Fireproof" enchantment*.  The best you can do in GURPS is thus:

Staff/Wand/Jewelry of Resist Fire - $16,000
Salamander Amulet - $4,920
Alchemical Fireproofing - +4 CF


* Fir clothes or armor.  You can Fireproof an area.

Is the alchemical fireproofing permanent for a +4 CF? That seems to differ from what the GM suggested...

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 174):

There was a specific item for sale, alchemists robes, that cost $150 iirc.

I am again recalling 3e; earlier iterations of this game had a furemage paying off debts to the guild casting fireproof. I thought it could be cast on objects, even if not as an enchantment.

OOPS!  Sorry, Dareos is nicer than I am, but he sometimes IC's in the OOC.

That's exactly what I told 'em.  FWIW, imgur provides third party hosting for free, doesn't even require registering, or you can use Flickr if you have an account.  Can't say how long it'll be before one of them (especially Flickr) starts extorting, though.

Welcome, Haveron.  You look amazingly like Snorri.  Might be a good thing he's out of town, else folks would mix the two of you up.

Re: Out of Character 6

Meant to reply before work. But wanted to look some stuff up which took longer than I had...



Gareth:
Is the alchemical fireproofing permanent for a +4 CF?

Two things:

1 - Yes.
2 - This was something I developed for a thread on the GURPS forums about Giving Cloaks Some Love:  http://forums.sjgames.com/showthread.php?t=142345

It was well received and Narrator tentatively approved the stuff in the thread for use.

I was trying to look up where I got the +4 DF from, but I think it was one part math and one part "feels right". Note, it doesn't make one immune to fire damage... it just means your clothes won't catch on fire!



Narrator:
There was a specific item for sale, alchemists robes, that cost $150 iirc.

Alchemist’s Garb is $225 and it isn't fireproof in the least:

DF 4 Sages:
Treated cloth apron, mask, and gloves prevent all ill effects from failures when rinsing off gunk, extracting venom, etc. Also screens out contact agents sprayed from the front.


Narrator:
I am again recalling 3e; earlier iterations of this game had a furemage paying off debts to the guild casting fireproof. I thought it could be cast on objects, even if not as an enchantment.

There's a lot of nonsensical ignoring of the rules in 3e, particularly in the Magic Items books.

Ok. Then I guess Gareth is looking for basic armour lining with fireproofing. Next question is, can he afford it?
