[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 2948321, member: 29014"] *After a bit more talk, Zykovian has the scrolls he needs. He can begin to study them on the ship, probably.* (OOC: That's true, but what you will typically see is 'bounty bidding'. First they try to get it for free from the guards. If that fails, they put up a bounty. If bounty hunters can't bring back the bounty head for that price, the price will eventually rise until it hopefully catches the attention of someone who can do the job and hits the right level of pay for the risk involved or else gets too high for them to be willing to pay any more no matter what. They pay what it's worth to them, which may not be proportional to the actual danger at first until it rises up there over time. Then again, it isn't clear that Zykovian is even outmatched by this woman--when he caught her, she fled rather than staying to fight ;) Certainly unless she is significantly more powerful than she has displayed so far, he would have no trouble if he brought some of the other characters along too. As for purchases, he won't be able to pick up any big items yet, probably, although he's still doing pretty well for a 3rd-level character :) Certainly none of the others in the group, save the Mojiin who got a big loan from Zyk, were able to buy any new items yet ;)) [/QUOTE]
