OOC Discussion for Kingdom of Ashes (Leaving Queens, Breaking Swords, & Snake Chicks)

I think there is a printed rule somewhere that states how much it costs to get an item created for a different slot. However, I will be damned if I know where it is. A prize to the first player of mine who finds it without help from the boards!

These are all things that we can be doing in the two or more weeks that we call "down time"-- which, really isn't "down time" at all... They will be (and I'm assuming here) combat free missions that serve our cause well.

Different meaning's..... so long as we are still doing things though okay call it what you want.

Could you summarize the contents of page 288 of the DMG for us?

(also - you win the PRIZE!)

(1) Traveling to One Oak
(2) Traveling to the Jade Forest to possibly hire the Bounty Huntresses to do some of our dirty work.
(3) Tea with Big Blue
(4) A couple trips to the library
(5) Maybe stop by and see how Tara and the other Ninjas are doing
(6) Info-gathering trips (previously planned by Gertie) to some of the major cities
(7) A trip to Sylvanus to attempt to gather more elves to fight for us
(8) A number of trips to multiple dwarven settlements (play up Arfin's murder-- get some more of the dwarves on our side)

1) Cool beans, just need big green
2) This may become battle oriented.... since we did kill two graduates and such.... we should just acklowledge this won't be a walk in the park convo.
3) definately
4) what specifically are we looking for at the library? Any advantage of the whole selura body thing is probably up by now.... unless you guys somehow took her captive... but that starts to get to be a complex story.... and maybe they just wont be there anymore
--speaking of which um- what about the bluemages we have trapped?
5) definately a trip with big green after one oak trip, see if they have made any contacts and friends
6) short poofs shouldn't be a big issue
7) Wahoo!!! Sylvanus isn't off the list!
8) Should we take a dwarf? Have Xath be her old dwarf self? Just may help having a dwarf spread the news as our ally. plus we can mention the whole falling of Arutha forge....

Wondrous Items that don't match the affinity for a particular body slot should cost 50% more than wondrous items that match the affinity. However, Items that overlap in affinity would not cost extra to change slots. (eg. shirts and belts are both Physical Improvement.)

• Headband, Helmet - Mental Improvement, ranged attacks
• Hat - Interaction
• Phylactery - Morale, Alignment
• Eye Lenses, Goggles - Vision
• Cloak, Cape, Mantle - Transformation, Protection
• Amulet, brooch, medallion, necklace, periapt, scarab - Protection, Discernment
• robe - Multiple Effects
• shirt - Physical Improvement
• vest, vestement - Class Ability Improvement
• bracers - Combat
• bracelets - Allies
• gloves - Quickness
• gauntlets - Destructive Power
• belt - Physical Improvment
• boot - Movement

OR, you can add new abilities to an existing item.

The cost to do this is the same as if the item was not magical. Thus, a +1 longsword can be made into a +2 vorpal longsword with the cost to create being equal to that of the +2 vorpal - the +1 sword.

If the item is one that occupies a specific place on the character's body, the cost of adding any additional ability to that item increases by 50%. For example, if the character adds the power to confer invisibility to her ring of Protection +2, the cost of adding this ability is the same as for creating a ring of invisibility multiplied by 1.5.

4) The library can just give us information about the blades, maybe? I don't know, really...
The Red Mages are in their prison-- they need to be questioned.

5) The trip to visit the ninjas will be cool-- Justice is still their de-facto leader... just passed it on to Tara... hopefully, they took her back happily.

6) We've got all the dwarves that came to fight for us-- in fact, we have a treaty with them, now. (Khaz Modan's settlement--spelling? Keaton's character can come with us for that particular thing... having Xath alterself may lead to feelings of being mislead).

6) You can have Keaton's character come with you, if you want. If you do, let me know - that will have to be taken care of over text in some fashion or another, so he can participate. It is, after all, his character...

 

[Xath]

Hey guys...um there have been these 25 redmages sitting in a 20x20 room for over 2 weeks. So...maybe we should do something about that...

 

[The_Universe]

We'll have a party cake and party hats and lemonade!

Also, what are you guys thinking for Arfin's funeral? I thought about just writing something and posting it, but I thought you might want to have more say in how your friend is honored in death...
