Averaging 9-10 views per post in an IC thread is pretty normal. I checked a few of the other games I am in and they average about 8-9. But URPGs doesn't get as many lurkers in IC threads as EnWorld. ;)
 




Rules on using the Library as a source to research are as followed.

- Allows for you to make a knowledge check untrained as if you had a rank in that skill ( but no +1 or CS bonus) or gives you a +2 bonus to a check, for researching about the Whispering Way, if you use a knowledge you are trained in. No bonus to researching Harrowstone.

- As you can go to other places that will give you bonuses into researching Harrowstone and The Whispering Way should you need to.
I have some confusion about these two rules. Not that I need to worry about untrained with Bardic Knowledge. Does this mean Firvin gets a +2 Circumstance bonus on researching the Whispering Way by using the Library?
These other places to provide bonuses to research, do we know them yet?

All those that wish to go to the temple will need to make a Diplomacy check to be allowed to "ask questions/review documents" etc. DC 25 and also takes the entire day. If the check is passed I will post up bonuses and such.
Is the DC changeable if we improve Trust first?

I think were were planning to actually RP with the old priest and talk to him. This sounds like something else, but if it is all just to gather information about the mystery, I am fine with just rolling the dice and posting accordingly. I don't want to get bogged down in minutia and keep things rolling.

I am wondering what ideas we have to quickly improve Trust by one point. Particularly if it will make dealing with the temple easier, I would like to do that before we start holing up to just research. We could ask advice on that from Lorrimor's daughter.
 

The rule about the library is you either get to...

A) Make an untrained check as if you were trained (no modifier)

or

B) Gain a +2 bonus to your know check if you are already trained in the skill used.

I guess the bardic knowledge would allow for the +2 as it is already the same as A. Even though it list that you may make know skill checks untrained not that it gives you training in them.

This part of the adventure would fly by if this were a RL session. As it would be ok Day 1 rolls. Then give out info. Ok Day two rolls. Give out info.
Day three you head to the Temple ok let's see if they let you in.

All this is because things are happening in the background and take days (in game) to get done. After the these creepy things have been perpetrated than the adventure will truly begin in earnest and the players taking the knowledge they have gained go forth to (do whatever it is you need to do).

This being pbp we are talking months if we play out everyday. Where like I said this would be done in like a half an hour around the table.

If you had a high enough trust score the diplomacy check would not be needed. But I think Kendra mentioned all the places that could be made to use for research. The library is the easiest. After that it would be the Unfurly Scroll.

And you get a +2 to Diplomacy checks when your Trust reaches 26 (good luck with that - other group has missed at least two spots to gain some, not easy).

There will be plenty of RP time with the priest and all the other characters after we get this ball rolling.

Okay, I think I get it. I posted some rolls.

The post on useful information from Kendra, is it linked at beginning of the RG Thread? (If not, could it be? :))
