ooc - Good point!

ooc- It's all right. I'm sure Engrishonly will count it as 5. Are you going to blow up those sixes or is five successes enough? You are probably safe, since it's unlikely anyone has a 4 or higher Observation, and they'd have you roll an Ob 10 Perception if they were using Beginner's luck...

Wiki's up over here: Keep on the Borderlands - Burning Wiki It's still very basic. Feel free to edit and stuff.

ooc- @ Constance. Just take the test. It would be a versus anyway, with your Sleight of Hand against anyone's Observation (or Beginner's Luck Perception). Get it as high as possible, since it is going to make life very hard for us if you get caught.

ooc - I agree. Although I want to try for a less lofty goal: getting some basic gear so we can help out. "Sir, we will attempt to do as you have suggested. We'll find some evidence. In the meantime, we can be of service by helping clear out the bandits. I'll take Auromos here to the armory and...

Engrishonly, do you mind if I set up a wiki for us on the Burning Wiki site? It might make it easier to keep all of these threads straight. I spent a little while plowing through our various threads looking for stuff and we are starting to generate a lot of deets.

Definitely keep talking to that Friar. He seems like he has some good info. Ask around for rumors. After Engrishonly gets back to it, you two should just go to town in the Tavern. I'll be imbuing and sleeping, and you two can just spam back and forth to your hearts' content.

Depending on how these negotiations go and how much the Captain agrees to our nominal demands, I'd like to fast forward to the next morning pretty soon. The only other things I'd like to do tonight are: 1. Inform the other members of the opportunity to defeat bandits. 2. Attempt to imbue...

Whatever you decide to make it, you will help yourself out if you phrase it in the short-term. It's often easier to make the belief simply the first step of a larger series of beliefs. Then you snag artha as you check off the steps. Specificity also helps Engrishonly know when they've been...

I like this guy. He's got Faith. He's got Field Dressing. He's my new best friend. I like your beliefs. The only thing that I find potentially cumbersome is the Loyalty belief. Are you going to get many chances to use that? Maybe Engirshonly will think of some good ways to betray us...

Persuasion Roll 7 Dice

I'll go ahead and make the roll for Persuasion, just to keep things moving. If I'm over-stepping or using the wrong numbers, we can ignore the roll. Constance: Persuasion 3 + 1 FoRK Initimidation +1D Reputation with Laymen Ferrantos' Help: +1 Auromos Help: +1 Total: 7 black dice.

Ferrantos’ one eye opens wide at Constance's audacity, “Right, mylord Captain. As Constance is suggesting, we would like to help out with your bandit problem. To be effective, we only require some light armor, crossbows, and basic traveling kit. Also, we can convince a number of our companions...

Do you want them to join us in the caves? That might work. It would be nice to have them around to soak up damage. We could suggest it afterwards, but I don't want to get too set on it. It's true that the five of us would likely get crushed in those caves. Aurvang and Avros could probably...

That's probably true. Is everyone interested in messing up some bandits before we head to the caves? We probably need to equip a bit before we go running into a humanoid infested area. Speak up. Oh, I forget, do we start with any artha?
