Lone Wolf: Northern Twilight OOC (calling all players)

[Paido]

Why would he need [rope-use]; he's well beyond Magnakai Primate!

... and for semi-Gordian knots, he always has the Sommerswerd, hmm?

Quick question for the GM
How would you prefer to handle private contact to you [...]

Maybe we could use the PM system of the Mongoose boards (only Relenoir would have to register there as well), or we could at least exchange our e-mail-addresses per that way? (Don't know about you folks, but after bad experiences I'm a bit hesitant to openly post my address on a forum ... :\)

Another reason I ask is because I am almost done with my character history, and I prefer not to post it with my character... it takes the fun out of other players discovering things out during the course of the game.

Hm, true enough ... too late now ... Ah well, a woman's still going to have her secrets.


@ Andrew: Good news, got the rulebook yesterday! Quickly browsed the Buccaneers description - and discovered that the Sailor's Lore (Superstition) class feature doesn't use a "Knowledge: Superstition" skill after all ... Can I take that skill point for "Concentration +1 (1 rank)" instead?

BTW, what "rules" or conventions are there for editing the posts in the Rogue's Gallery and the IC thread? (My first PbP, though I think I mentioned that already ... )

I don't really wanna use e-mail either, since there's viruses on my computer that I can't get rid of and I'm wary of passing 'em on to anybody else. PMing on Mongoose would work best.

Cool beans on the book. My mistake on the skill thing - sure, go ahead and swap that out.

No real rules on editing. Hell, I edit my posts all the time.

So who's pre-ordered Darklands?

How much gold does a Doan start with?

(1d10+10) x2 is what I'll be going with.

What is a Kai Lord granted for weapons from the Monastery? I would like to carry a bow with arrows, a few (5) daggers to throw or fight with, and a longsword. Do I get some kind of mastercraft weapon?

Well, I realize now I screwed up, as Kai get equipment seperate from Sommlendings. So I'll allow you to choose if you want to stick with the Sommlending equipment like the others, or go with Kai equipment.

Sommlending Equipment: masterwork longbow OR masterwork one-handed weapon

Kai Equipment: Backpack, 4 meals, one weapon, light armor of your choice, Kai Cloak OR padded armor, light shield, flint/steel, waterskin, beltpouch, whetstone, Kai Cloak. Kai Cloak grants +1 to Fortitude saves vs. harsh weather (hot or cold).

Eternalknight and adgramaine, as the other two Kai, I'll let it be your decision to stick with your Sommlending equipment or Kai equipment.

Would I start with some form of armor? If not, how much for leather, which I plan to buy?

10 gold crowns.

What languages I'd start with and what others I'd have access to based on Intelligence score.

Start w/ North Speak and Sommlending, due to your +3 Intelligence give yourself Durenese, Dwarven (as there's a dwarf in the party), and say a smattering of Giak.

Until I gain a level, I'll still need a Healer's kit to fix people, so I'd probably have to buy one unless this is commonly granted to Kai skilled in the Discipline. If I have to buy one, how much is it?

Officially, it's not, but I'll houserule it. Go ahead and take one.

Laumspur: Can we get it and how much for clumps and/or potions?

50 gold crowns per clump, potion's basically right out of your price range. Unless you happen to find some in your travels through the Sommlending forest... and for part of the adventure, you'll be on the road to Ragadorn, so you may find some Larnuma. Larnuma, by the way, is 30 gold crowns.

 

[Paido]

Oh, a character still gets his INT bonus in additional languages? Didn't do that ... So I'll have 2 points more for languages or skills (bought my additional languages with skill points)?


Paido, cursed by Jesabela in not enough languages at the moment

 

[Paido]

I'll go for Disable Device +5 (3 ranks), then. After reading the description of that skill, that probably would be a wise move ... (Tell me if you have any objections, I'll re-edit it then.)

Question: do you guys want to RP out some more character interaction, or get on to the beginnings of the journey? I don't wanna really decide that without getting the input of everyone else.

 

[Eternalknight]

I'm ready to move on.

 

[adgramaine]

I'm content with the popular opinion. I will enjoy either or, and I'll let everyone else decide the way they prefer.

I'm easy to please

 

[Paido]

More or less "what Adgramaine said" ...

To avoid a potential stalemate, though: If Krug - as the last one to vote - would like to play out the "evening in town" (or anything else) before we jump to the start of the journey, I'll add my vote to his.


Paido

 

[Krug]

Nah I'd rather move on.
