So it's Quarter 1, Day 2.

If we're assuming Harinder is here with the group and Leading the Way, I'll make the necessary roll for him. Everyone else will be Hiking, with one of you (your choice) Keeping Watch as you go.

Let me know who's doing that and make a Scouting Roll please.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 9):

I'll do scouting roll, we'd agreed on that earlier I believe.  Let's assume Harinder is here.  If he's not, I've no doubt he'll tell us.

Update: Rolled, posted in Runething thread, please remind me if you want rolls posted elsewhere

In reply to Brevis (msg # 10):

I also have been away. Should I roll? Not seeing the lead the way roll.

Also, did anyone take the second set of armor and cap Lothar got away with?

Also, Harinder is attempting to scan the scene for sights of a camp, horses or other npcs

Eins isn't really the best at stealth or diplomacy, so he's just going to be ready to fight, should it come to that.

In reply to Harinder (msg # 11):

i don't believe anyone took the second set of armor.

Lothar has the other armour in his backpack.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 14):

I cant see it in Lothars backpack? There should also be another skull cap, right?

How about I grab the excess studded leather for Harinder? And two silver exchanged from HArinder to Lothar. We can assume the exchange happening in the background.

My initial idea was to dress up the half-elves to appear less elvish when dealing with the orcs, but on second thought -  they dont hate elves more than humans, right, GM?
And the frailers are already in armor.

In reply to Harinder (msg # 15):

I do have armor of a type, so ok there.  In order to not anger the orc, I am going to do my best to avoid using magic of any kind and generally appear as cast out from society as possible.

In reply to Harinder (msg # 15):

Just note that you'll be over your weight capacity if Harinder dons the studded leather.

Though we could do a trade where you get my leather armor and I take the studded leather?

Just realized I created a stablemaster NPC friend and left town without any horse ><
Harinder could not afford it, anyways.

@Caile - thanks. That made perfect sense, but the mistake is mine - theres only one studded leather, which Lothar dons.

That what he got away with from the tent. Harinder takes one leather armor, but cant carry the second. There are also 3 leather caps ... or two?

@Brevis - I took the liberty of updating the range of throwing axe from Short to Long in your sheet, or was it meant to use in melee?

@Lothar - Gave 1 silver from Harinder to Lothar on the sheet, for the extra studded leather.

@Eins, if GM rules there are more armors from the stolen gear still around, I suggest Eins carry them (1 leather armor, 2 leather caps - assuming Lothar took one cap).

Thanks, that was my error.

In reply to Harinder (msg # 18):

Are you sure?

So, while there were more items available Lothar managed to pick up 2 studded leather and 2 leather caps.

(yes, I know that contradicts what was posted earlier, but that's my bad...)

Lothar is currently wearing 1 of each, leaving 1 of each to give to someone.

If @Harinder is taking those (which I imagine was the whole point of taking more than one) then he has given Lothar 1 silver as compensation for his efforts.

He could use the time that Brevis and Caile are talking to the orc and elf to change into the leathers.

So it still stands that Harinder donning the studded leather would push him past his encumbrance limit. If we pause and chat with the duelants for a while, or maybe later when we set up camp for the night, Harinder and Caile could switch armors since Caile would be able to shoulder the load? Unless Harinder wants to unload something else to get below his limit or carry on encumbered, of course.

In reply to Caile (msg # 22):

do we want to use any excess load as bartering material w npcs?

Could offer up my tent, your wine and Lothar's tapestry as some fancy blanket so that they can have a romantic night camping in the forest? Caile could even sing and play for them :D

In reply to Caile (msg # 24):

i'd be willing to do that if the deal was right

Sorry for the delay, I was going to reply today, but I feel like crap so I'll try and get it done tomorrow.

I'll update tomorrow.

I have to ask. The orc, does he not have tusks like the rest of male orcs in the Ravenlands? His speech is very eloquent and un-slurred, I must say ;)

I suggest there is no need to oeverplay swapping of gear between us. Can we just assume the exchange was made back before they left the village, behind the scene? Caile getting studded leather, and Harinder has leather. I supose the caps (2 leather caps, then?) Lothar got away with.

Yeah, Im assuming he is half-orc, or a female? Its up to GM to decide on what specifics this instance of the Forbidden Lands hold. It is also likely his tusks are cut, perhaps common among the Urhur clan, as they seem to want to be more human-like than other orcs.

He has tusks, but not overly long, and perhaps this and his relatively clear speech is one of the reasons he was exiled.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 31):

Ah, I see. Poor Alachran, misunderstood and cast out. Well, at least he got the girl =D

In reply to Caile (msg # 32):

Are we fast forwarding to the morning or has anyone else stuff they want to do beforehand?
