(OOC) Fitz's Folly (ToA PBP)

[gargoyleking]

Thanks, I didn't even think about asking for swapping out things, as I needed some motivation to make Dellrak grumpy.

Because a dwarf isn't a dwarf unlessnhe's grumpy, right?

Squirrels are evil!

A dwarf can be un-grumpy. When his muscles ache after a good fight, while his head is buzzing after a long night of drinking, Or he's sitting atop a pile of gold six feet high.

Then he's not grumpy, but otherwise yep he is a grump-asaurREX

I've been thinking about the characters and their Faction contacts and the relationships thereof. The factions are kind of an interesting beast of an idea in the first place. NONE of them are truly 'good' as organisations go, which I like. A lot of people think of the Zhents as the 'bad ones' but that's not true at all - they all have the potential for badness.

As far as the contacts and the characters go, I'm going to establish some mixed relationships. You won't necessarily like or agree with your contact, nor are they necessarily your 'boss'. These are simply high-ranking (for Chult) members of these organisations, ALL of which are more powerful in the north than they are here.

They requested aid, sent a bunch of mixed information as to why, and the organisation sent YOU. Also for various mixed reasons. Some of you may have been requested, others gotten 'rid' of, or sent as a punishment, or whatever. It'll come out in time.

I don't have a complete map of the Port yet, BTW so don't go asking where stuff is too much, okay?

Here you r...

Thanks, but I've got that one. It's a preview of the one in the book, but it's missing more than half the city. I don't know what they do with their dead yet - we'll have to leave that kind of stuff for later.

I know I'm not giving the PCs much to respond to yet, I'm just having fun establishing the scene.

I'll start some plot soon.

 

[gargoyleking]

Hope it isn't derailing the plot, but The Nameless does want to do his own quick bit of research first. Namely, studying a death.

[EarlyBird]

Hopefully not one of the PCs?!

And what does he do if no one has died around him in a few days? Go Execution Style (monk reference lol) on a beggar?

 

[gargoyleking]

No, and he doesn't study the recently dead so much as the actual dying.

After reading...

I like the flavor along with the mysterious rping a monk of the long death will can provide. Not something I could probably play well at the moment, just got back into D&D so I'm here to smash things. lol

 

[gargoyleking]

So, are we supposed to know each other already and know we're supposed to be working together? My understanding was not so much.
