Let me ask a question if I may.

I noticed we are starting at 3rd level which means when we progress to 4th level we can choose to increase a Stat (str, int, etc) or take a feat. Are we as Eris' character suggests, creating characters using the 'optional variant Human traits rule'?

I sure hope so! That was the basis for my build from the beginning. I conceived Adan as a Human Dex based fighter, mainly a ranged fighter. The Variant Human let me do that better than straight Human so I presented it to JR and he said Adan was okay.

That's fine if you want to use it.

[Spearmint]

Ok. I considered it. I think I will keep Amistad as he is now but he will roleplay learning towards gaining a feat when he next levels up, probably at this stage looking at the Healers trait.

Sounds good.

[Spearmint]

Yeah, a barbarian who doesn't drink ale or eat meat.

Could be such a thing, I suppose...

That's a vegetarian, isn't it?

How much is 'a gold thayler' worth? Is it 1gp or 10? Or more?

I am trying to get a sense of worth. How much 1gp equates to in terms of daily wage.

Amistad has no real idea of what the local economy is, other than a room for three people is one gold coin per night. He also noted coppers and silvers being given for food. Best guess for now - a gold piece is a days' wage for a regular worker.

[joertexas]

I went back and read the broadsheet text - and it's two thaylers per day!

Sorry about that - I plead lack of focus and high blood sugar.

The pay is as the broadsheet says.

[Spearmint]

A character has to be who they are. I look forward to seeing how JR handles it.

And that is all I am trying to roleplay not being deliberately obtrusive.

There's no rule that says you have to take a job that's offered. If you decided to show up at the dock, then that's fine. If not, then you can post other actions as you see fit.

[Spearmint]

Well presently no job has been offered and he is in the tavern.

[terrymixon]

Well, to be fair, it was offered. Just not accepted at this point.

Okay, so the next move is up to the group. What next?

[Spearmint]

Amistad had posted an in-character action in the tavern to get more info on other potential merchants trading in the area.

Unless Ustasi offers to pay even the minimal 2gp to hire him from North Port for the one extra day, he will not board the ship.

The rate is 2gp - she will be at the dock in two hours.

Do we know how long the trip is?

Not yet - you'd need to ask.

And so I shall. In two hours.
