Re: Town I: Estwatch

So what are we thinking for a next move? I'd say Harlan is still looking for a little more financial security than he's got at present and would be willing to try for a targeted raid of Damring, now that they know a little more about the location, maybe try and scout some information on the orcs th...

Re: OOC Discussion

Just for the record, Harlan will be loosing 1 rank in Criminal on account of him sucking it up. As Harlan prepares his kit for departure in the morning, he notices a slight numbness and uncomfortable stiffness in the index and middle fingers of his left hand. What used to be a fine instrument for s...

Re: Town I: Estwatch

I believe I've got 3D in cash, 2D from the Mayor and 1D from Ag in exchange for the Sword so that'll be 3D vs Ob2. I'll assume I'm working with the same consequence for failure as Raizenbrayne is. [1d6] = 1, [1d6] = 1, [1d6] = 5 Yeah, screw this town. Does using cash insulate me from anything or pro...

Re: OOC Discussion

Where would you like us to keep track of our character sheets? Should I just repost in the original Character Sheet Thread and keep track of it there?

Re: REWARDS!!! (Discussion)

For the record, I would have voted for Raizenbrayne, because I am totally and completely without ego. ;)

Re: Town I: Estwatch

Sorry for my absence from the board as of late. Its been a week. Anyways, I think Harlan will just Suck It up on the Injury, I'm worried about blowing all my cash on the test, failing and then not having cash and having 0 Resources when I leave town and taking on another condition. Also I think my ...

Re: The Tavern

March 14th

Ace leaves a copper on the bar for Ghrym, doffs his hat, and heads across the street to the inn to find lodgings for Harrold and himself. He will take two days to rest fully and to make plans.

Re: OOC Chat

I must admit I'm dealing with a little bit of a learning curve on the timestamp issue. It probably goes without saying, but feel free to leave Ace in the dust adventuring wise while I take some time to get comfy with the whole thing. I'm considering having him wander blithely in the wilderness with ...

Re: Town I: Estwatch

Harlan will somewhat reluctantly hand the sword over to Ag, dramatically rolling his eyes and sighing. Never figured you for a sentimentalist Ag, but if it means that much to you to keep it around, I suppose I can tighten the old belt strap and do with out for a while. If you've got the 1D to spare ...

Re: The Tavern

Ace considers this for a moment with obvious difficulty, a darkness spreading over his furrowed brow. Its clear that the amount of planning, patience and scrutiny necessary for more than the most basic business venture is probably well beyond him. But he might get lucky anyways. Snapping out of it h...

Re: Town I: Estwatch

Makes sense. Just wanted to make sure I was doing my math right. Well...It looks like Ag will be needing his coin, and I'm a bit loathe to sell the blade...What do I think I could get for it on the market?

Re: The Tavern

Nice to meet you Ghrym. And thanks for the ale. I must say I can't imagine why a group of women would wander out into the wilderness, especially on a day such as this. I gather your frontier lasses are a sturdy lot, but all the same. Seems strange. What are they up to?

Re: Town I: Estwatch

So if Harlan wants to go to a healer, that is an Ob2 Resources test. Does that ALSO add to his lifestyle cost at the end of the phase? Or does the Resources test take care of that?

Re: OOC Discussion

I have no doubt that we'll wind up paid. This is just a game that is absolutely punishing in the early portion. We'll get there. But, I'm with you, Sulldawga: we should head back to Damring and haul out some more stuff. We could try to drag the icon back out, which was worth a fair bit of coin. And ...

Re: The Tavern

Perfect! That's exactly the kind of mistake Ace would make. :D Ace looks tentatively at the beer. His brothers and father never let him touch the booze, not after he got violently ill on his 13th birthday after trying to keep up with his elders. But, he figures, he's older now. And on his own! A ri...

Re: The Tavern

Ace hitches Harrold to the post and enters the Inn, dripping wet. His spirits remain high, for no apparent reason, as he approaches the bar. Hello sir! My name is Ace Luitger, son of Bruce Luitger, son of Landon Luitger. I'm new here and am looking for somewhere to stable my ass, Harrold. I was dire...
