[QUOTE="Narrator, post: 678757, member: 10027"] [b]Game notes and replies.[/b] Sorry if the 'shoving you out the back gate' thing felt a bit rushed but I thought that I should get things moving and throw the ball in your court instead of keeping it as a back'n'forth between your characters and NPC's. That and I didn't want to roleplay the whole 'going down the stairs, past the guards (they nod, one growls), click, click, click (yes Clete, you watch closely), etc. Btw, I've decided to go with bold for my DM'ing actions instead of OOC since I figure reading pages of red text could get annoying :) John, I should've mentioned this before but I forgot. The way I do Gather Info is that you tell me how many hours and how much money you want to spend and that affects the final result. For each hour a minimum of one gold needs to be spent buying drinks, greasing palms, etc. Every hour and/or gold more than that increases the chance of success by +1. There is no maximum however the more you wander about asking people, the more likely it is someone will take notice which can be either a good or bad thing, my call :) The thieves' guild and temples I'll do seperately in the thread soon after I post this. As for equipment, just buy whatever you want up to 1,400gp (hey, you could hock stuff and pull together resources to get that much! :) ) maximum for a single item. However no group of similar items can be over 600gp (ie. you can only buy 4 150gp potions, or 2 300gp scrolls, etc.) and no magic item over 600gp can be purchased in town. Other than that, it's freeform. Roleplay as you please, tell me what you want your characters to do, etc. If you just want to have your character sit in a tavern until everyone else is ready to leave, that's fine to. Website: Aww man... I hate not having SSI... if I had SSI, I'd only have to alter one page but to fix this, I have go back and fix them all! Free webspace sucks! Emails: Heh, yeah, I figured that if someone was actually going to bother to email any of us about the game, then they can damn well say something nice :D Knights: Yeup, there's a write-up on 'em but just be known that you can't use any of that without knowledge checks.
