[QUOTE="drdevoid, post: 1848299, member: 5356"] [b]Delmar's Player[/b] Naturally nothing hinges on it at the moment, but I'd like to have it already discussed. Time is not currently of the essence (in real time not game time) and I'd rather have things lined up so we can progress faster. This is just meant for discussion. We don't have time to buy anything until after going into the P.S. So while I can respect a wait and see philosophy and agree in this case, part of what was being discussed was getting/having the cloaks in the first place. It makes our desire to have them enchanted more real if we actually are have them on us. What I [B]really[/B] would like to see is that we discuss a topic when raised and come to something definitive. I feel it's really hard to keep everyone on the same page in this type of forum. At least it's really hard for me, I've been getting confused. [B]Now why would we want a carpet?[/B] It had been suggested and we never came to a verdict. Again not "Go out and buy it now!" just why we might want to procure one before/if we leave windfall. Here's my impression: it's an alternate ruse that could help us crack the magic carpet case better than the cloak enchanting story. We could be dealing with very different kinds of magics. My logic is simple, while in D&D magic terms Magic Carpets are enchanted by the same people that make cloaks, I don't feel it would crossover in this instance. I'd thought the "get enchanted cloak" angle explains why we were dealing with Weaver's Guild in the first place, not why we'd be going around asking questions about carpets. Was I misunderstanding? For me it came down to this: while one is a cover, the other could be a better snare for a trap. On top of that, we might be able to get Polixarchus to lend us one, or give us one at a discount. Getting back to the other issue, if one is talking about getting a pack animal, getting a wagon is a pretty logical step especially as it's 35 GP. Now we'll probably have enough mounts as is, which is why I was asking the question as to how many mounts we had in the first place. But harnessing two together for pulling a wagon or sled isn't exactly a radically expensive idea. To be clear: We're planning for crossing a desert. I don't want to make endurance or encumbrance checks. If that all comes across as testy, I sincerely apologize. I think I'm just getting anxious for a plan to form and it all to come together. And I'm sure it will after we go to the Prismatic Spray. [/QUOTE]
