[QUOTE="Khorod, post: 365152, member: 1636"] I really like this idea. I'll have to give some serious thought to changing how I do things. This fits my philosophy very well, just doesn't for my DM. Luckily I have a screen of my own... Why would the farmer get masterwork studded leather armor? Unless this is supposed to be a militia-officer commoner or something. I would expect him to go for masterwork spades, hoes, ploughs, use his wealth to expand his land and livestock, etc. The studded leather would probably come after arming his son with a weapon, or perhaps himself. I mean, while he is competent with the Sickle, there is a reason why most medieval armies carried swords, bows, or polearms. Also, while a human might live to 110, I would expect a certain amount of slow down and retirement in the 60's. Particularly if he is as successful as this. The lifespan limits are supposed to be extremes, but if you place a medieval influence, he would retire and continue as a mostly vocal support to his sons. Maybe become a village elder or something. I doubt the experience would be gained at the same rate. [/QUOTE]
