Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

[dog45]

hm... yes and no. Ada's always a bit nervous, and therefore salty, when she runs into someone from the Warrens, as it reminds her of a place she's trying desperately hard to get away from and wants nothing to do with. But as long as Grant wasn't one of those that made her life (more) miserable, she'd try to be cordial.

Ah, Grant's always smooth with the ladies. And seeing how both of them work in the same, er, area of business, they could talk shop. hmm. That'd be weird.

Who ever said Ada is into men...

But yeah, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to assume that some of Ada's and Grant's girls (and clients) have crossed paths at times. Ada doesn't run a bothel so much as a low rent call girl service run out of the Onyx Spider. She brings the girls to her clients (often holed up in their room), but it wouldn't be a stretch to think the two would know each other.

That's cool - dnd escort service. Grant doesn't own or work in a brothel, actually. His ma tends bar at one, and grew up with most of the girls that work in them. He's their self-appointed protector, of a sorts.

Question for Whizbang:

I'm planning on a dwarven ranger that's a member of the Delver's Guild. Specifically as retrieval personnel. So more of a speluking search and rescue type rather than the typical wilderness ranger.

Would knowledge of the Dungeon fall under Knowledge (Dungeoneering) or Knowledge (Local)? Also, the Ptolus PHB doesn't mention what kind of creatures inhabit the Dungeon. Could you give me an idea of the typical creatures so I can select a favored enemy?

Edit: Followed the link in Erekose13, post. Found diety.

 

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

Hmm, you know, that's an excellent question. I'm going to say that Knowledge (Local) actually covers them both, since they're so enmeshed in Ptolus.

Probably the most common menaces for a low level Delvers Guild rescuer would be ratmen or goblins.

 

[Trench]

hm... See, I had Ada pick Dungeoneering knowledge- under the idea that she's picked up lots from Delver conversations she's paid attention to in the Onyx Spider. Should I change this to Local knowledge? (Both would fit pretty well actually...)

 

[Verbatim]

I know I am coming in late in the day on this one, but thought what the heck..might as well throw in an idea even if it doesn't get picked up.

The concept I have is one of a priest of The Lady, nearly a fallen one to be honest, who works the docks healing those he can when his spells are granted, and stiching the rest up as he goes with more common means. When the deaths begin and people start pointing fingers but do little, he knows that this is his last chance to do something that will truly matter. Even though the years have been hard on him and his faith shaken more than secure, he begins searching for the killer.

As The Lady teaches, A long shot is better than none at all...

I will make a formal character sheet tomorrow, but just wanted to get the wheels moving all the same.

I actually had Wikipad pick up both local and dungeoneering--is this a redundancy in this case?
