Just clarifying the job here: I was under the impression we were being hired to help guard the city while the sherriff takes some men to go get reinforcements. However, Deverin just said something about ill fortune 'along the way.' Are we meant to be filling a hole left by guard leaving with the Sherriff, or to be accompanying the sherriff so that the regular guard can stay with the town?

Thanks, and sorry if I'm being addlepated.

You're not being addlepated. The town wants to hire you to stay put in Sandpoint while the Sheriff travels to Magnimar to requisition reinforcements. When I had Mayor Deverin use the term "along the way," I meant "in the course of fulfilling your contractual duties."

Oh, good. I have a tendency sometimes to lose the thread of the plot if I'm not focused. Wanted to make sure that wasn't the case here before I veered too far off.

250 XP each for roleplay (Taran for staying true to dragon form by harrying down each and every last gold piece he could, even at the expense of fatigue the next day, and Sivan, Elyra, Tac, and Talashia for roleplay, good questions, and interesting decisions made during the night and in the morning in the sheriff's office).

It was hard to not collect every goblin suit of armor and dogslicer so as to make a profit off of their sale. Alas...

BTW, are we using slow, medium or fast Pathfinfer level progression?

Fast. And since it takes slightly more XP in PF to get between levels, you can expect me to hand out XP more frequently and for more things (like rp during an office scene). Play-by-post already takes forever to level up and to get stuff done, I prefer to reach milestones more frequently than a character level (for example) every year or other year.

You haven't latched on to Elyra's plan to unveil Sandstone. She's going to take him to the vet to have him neutered! :-)

Why do you think Sandstone never lets anyone get within arm's reach of him?

It somehow escaped me until just this morning that Sir Jasper Korvaski is gay. Don't know how on earth I managed to miss that detail for two years, but I did.

I was just about to ask if that was in the module or a tweak you made. As for missing it, honestly, with fantasy names being what they are (and, really, fantasy lit having a tendency to skew to the conservative), I had to go back to the Player's Guide to check on a gender for the theatre owner before I knew for sure. But once I had, I'll be honest and say it made me smile, that did.

Ah, but also wanted to ask: we've moved inside the building, but I was wondering if I can have Tac relay his information to the others in the space of travel before we got there? I can do that in actual dialogue, or we can handwave it (i.e. just tell everyone they know what's in that sblock) to avoid too much temporal confusion.

I will be out of the loop from Friday (tomorrow) until Tuesday or Wednesday next week. I plan to drive to Virginia for a long weekend for my family's annual Brunswick Stew.

I forwarded everyone from the Garrison to the Mercantile League because a.) we needed to keep things moving forward and b.) it's my job to do so. But, yes, please do feel free to impart to the others anything your PC knows at any point you wish. I'll handwave when I have to, but in this case, it's probably easier if you just have Tac mutter a quick aside to the others before ya'll start asking after Sir Jasper. I'll go read the IC to see what, exactly, is up today.

A check of the IC revealed that the only one to post after my last update was Ambrus (for the dog). You should be in the clear to throw something up for Tac.
