Malvoisin's Savage Tide OOC Thread *Resurrected*

That is unless folks wanted to pitch in 125 gp each for a wand of cure light.

As noted above, Anar is definitely in on that. I can't think of anything else that may save our bacon for a bargain.

 

[Legildur]

Consider Bael's contribution to that as a given!

 

[stonegod]

I'll wait on the rest (its a significant investment), of course. Either way, I won't be holding on to the money long. Archivists burn through quickly.

[sblock=peanut cash fund]Perhaps before all the money is spent, a few discreet wagers could be placed on Chongo's upcoming pit fight. I am thinking the wand might practically pay for itself...[/sblock]

 

[GwydapLlew]

Chongo would contribute to a wand as well. Not falling down is always better than falling down.

 

[hafrogman]

I'll put in for the wand. The problem with wagering on Chongo is

a) he might lose (sorry, but it's true)
b) it's been stated that they'll be mostly handwaived into the background. If we start fiddling with the betting, that might have to be revised, to the detriment of the campaign I feel. (no offense Gwyd, but Chongo fighting a battle alone does not make good pbp)

As the lurker who brought up the betting thing, I will apologize for starting that aspect of things. Just thought it might give a little RPing chance, among many you guys already do, to anchor the group more with each other. Something along the lines of you all going to the fight and using your abilities to make sure he did win.

The aura's to bolster his abilities when he entered the area of effectiveness, a well placed charm to take a larger bet than normal, Col analyzing the beast/man for any known weaknesses, that sort of thing.

But from the lurker row, I know I can "Hollywood"ize this a great deal more than might be allowed, and will work on not poking the anthill as often as I do...

 

[hafrogman]

I didn't mean to imply it was a BAD idea, nothing to apologize for, I just don't think it'll work out quite as easily as you visualize.

 

[stonegod]

I'm waiting for Kalen/Voadam to check in before committing to the wand, though that appears to be the consensus. Voadam's been around, but I guess he's still busy with crazy courtroom antics.

 

[Voadam]

I'll chip in on the wand.

I've got to write up an outlook 2007 piece for our news publication detailing important environmental law cases so the next two weeks will be a little ugly on time for me until I finish that and take my family away on Christmas vacation for a week. And I don't expect to be online during that vacation at all.

Normally Wednesdays is my normal clearing date for my weekly publication and I work from home (at the local library) on Thursdays so those are my most pressing normal work week days when I am not as present online. And this game has a very high post rate for a pbp game, which is great but makes it a little tough to jump back into quickly.
