General Discussion Thread IX

[Rystil Arden]

Why do I get the feeling that the OoC discussion that is taking place in this thread is the one that should have taken place IC in the Ashin's Commission thread before your characters walked out of the woods to confront the soldiers?

Zaeryl kept trying to have that discussion, but nobody listened

"Grrrrrrrr Die! Die! DIE! Aaaauuuuurgh" *gurgle* *splortch*.

Yeah, Nars definitely heard a splortch.

It never occurred to Michael the rest of the party would decide what the problem in Duvik was before...say, getting to Duvik? Or at least seeing Duvik?

We'll save the rest of the good dialogue for in character

Sure, just remember our employer told us that he considers Fallon to more than likely be the bad guys behind this whole incident:

"This is a truth rod; it prevents the holder from lying. Before we go any further, I am going to ask those who are interested to answer a simple question."

Ashin holds up his hand to forestall any questions.

"I perfectly understand if you do not wish to do it, and I will tell you the question before asking any of you to make your decision. The question is this: Do you own allegiance or debt to the Lord of Fallon, or to any that themselves own allegiance or debt to the Lord of Fallon.

"If you answer 'yes', then I must ask you to leave, with my thanks for your time."

Ashin give those who wish to leave time to do so. To those that remain he hands the rod and asks the question to each in turn.

"Eventually the orcs were driven back and an truce made. But the people of Duvik never forgot Fallon's silence, and so they turned their backs on Fallon and their faces to Orussus for their trade.

"Over the last ten years, Fallon have been making overtures to Duvik, trying to bring the town into their area of influence. In response, group of merchants from Orussus has been pressing the council here to offer an alliance to Duvik. Initially the council was slow to see the need, but the tide of opinion is turning. Fallon knows this, and I suspect that the events in Duvik are in some way tied to this struggle for Duvik. I will not say that the rumours are groundless, but I suspect that Fallon is behind this in one way or another. A disaster offers Fallon the opportunity to make up for the persecution that drove the people out of Fallon and Fallon's failure to assist Duvik 25 years ago.

So in light of that, I'd say even out of character that submitting ourselves to the Fallonese guards is not a good idea. Not that I don't have characters who might have tried that, mind.

Hulygr always listens! He does doesn't think that much about the things he hears. But indeed.. let's get away from that place asap and them talk.. ic

 

[Velmont]

I'll be away for the week end, from Friday morning to Sunday night, so I will likely not post again before Monday. Don't wait for me and move things foward in teh adventure I am in. For my players, well, you'll have to wait.

Clarification on the Craftsman Job... do you earn CPs based on your Skill bonus or ranks? It's not clear.

It says per rank.

Other question.

If we're using transparancy on psionics/magic, can you add magical enhancements to psionicly enhanced items?

Example: Juliana crafts a +1 Psionic weapon, can she later get it enchanted with the flaming power?

 

[Erekose13]

Yes, based on transparency rules.
