We both have ours, including all the money and Najiyah's silk-covered camel to boot

Sounds so dirty. .just what are you trying to imply Najiyah is?

A Vizier who knows that a well-groomed camel is the key to first impressions with the Tribes of the Desert, that's who.

All welcome to Najiyah the resplendent! She of the Gilded Camel! Jewel of the Desert!

Jago · Nov 29, 2016

Oh Shayuri. She has a title. And it is so, so much longer than that.

In the meantime, Quickleaf, I'm going to need to request pretty much constant musical references to Lawrence of Arabia once we set out into The High Desert, thanks.

Quickleaf · Nov 29, 2016

Haha. I'll do my best to make obscure Maurice Jarre references.
[MENTION=4936]Shayuri[/MENTION] I'll work up a hit list of targets for your holy slayer PC. Also, going to start statting out the Brotherhood NPCs. Mwahaha.

Jago · Nov 29, 2016

See, this is why I like you as a GM. So accommodating whilst plotting our demise.

Just a quick thing, did we also have alternate basic equipment lists? I have a "Composite Longbow" on my character sheet and its stats do not make me think it is just a regular Longbow.

I may have also just mis-typed the stats, though.

There was this document that I believe we found online and were sharing:

However, looking over their rules for "composite longbow", and I have to say giving it flat-out 1d8+1 damage is not good rules design. A better treatment of composite bows would be ranged weapons that can be fired using Strength modifier for attack/damage bonus, instead of Dexterity; possibly, the bow's pull would be designed for a specific Strength modifier.
