A Merc's Life [OOC 01]

[Maidhc O Casain]

Yessir - skills pertaining to mountainous areas in general will serve you well, but those specific areas would be more pertinent to the Barrier Wall mountains than to the Brazen Peaks.

However, I don't think from what I've read of the AP so far that there's any great benefit to be had from specific knowledge of the Brazen Peaks - wandering monsters and such will be very similar. It's only those things specific to the adventure path that would differ, and your knowledge/survival skills specific to the Brazen Peaks wouldn't be much help with that stuff.

It's also worth noting (though maybe not for this adventure) that there is actually some honest to Gods forest and swampland in central Katapesh. Clothing styles change there - more focused on keeping bugs and such out than on staying cool.

So ALL of Katapesh is just a weatherman's dream, isn't it?? Lucky us! Good thing that the technology doesn't yet exist for us to physically feel what our pcs are going through!

THIS is what I meant by 'desert':

and I thought no one cared. Thanks, Ryan!

Desert/Dessert, you say to-may-to, I say to-mah-to.

Sorry, David - I saw your post (256) but there was nothing there for me to respond to. Keeland's "handler" is galivanting about the country somewhere.

And you're quite right, Ryan - I wasn't considering how long it would likely take for Aodhán to determine cause of death and thoroughly examine the body.

On a side note - if we could put OOC stuff that fits better in the IC thread in actual spoilers it would help me sort things in my poor beleagured brain.

I'll get a response up to Houwlou's query of Dashki this evening and move that bit forward.
