Yep, I think it's all in my mega-rogues gallery post. I think in the Timeline bit right now, but I'll eventually move it to someplace else where it can be seen a little more clearly. The timeline is currently at the end of Background. At the end of that post I've also got all the Reddogs named and semi-statted via "this is what a normal one looks like and this is how each is different". Buren or 'Cale" (which I have no idea why as of yet he would have two different names, maybe he adventured under a different name to "protect the family name") is the brother-adventurer.
It's never anyone's fault.Ranger Rick said:Edit: James,

How many illiterate peasants who've spent the last several years getting pounded on by giants know the difference between "venereal" and "cooties you catch from being near the pretty girl"? Disease isn't something I think I'd fun with in an environment where cholera and dysentary would have been pretty common for the last several years.
In any case, you're doing it to Anastasia. That's a lot like accusing Joan of Arc of shenanigans to get backstage at the Kiss concert in Mavic's eyes. Or to put in a more complex manner, Mavic idolizes Anastasia because of her honor and purity of spirit and anything that challenges that doesn't just say something bad about Anastasia it says something bad about Mavic's judgement. It would be like suggesting that Latalya had betrayed Mavic's brother, or that the Reddogs were cowards, or that Mavic was half-giant because his mom liked to drink heavily on hiking trips up into the Jotens.
Better to pick on the dwarf
Reivik's just a warrior-dilettante fighting battles so he can sing showtunes about them...

My humble apologies. I forgot you talking about how Mavic sees Anastasia.

No problems, to be fair if I were the one playing a rogue everyone would have to be watching themselves around me a lot more. You know, like pouring buckets of fire ants into her armor while she was sleeping and telling everyone she was actually a he ("Oh yeah, just check out the way it carries that sword. You ever see a lady do that, bub? Doubt me? Tell you what, I'll give you 10 gold if you just waltz right up there and prove me wrong, go ahead. It's a paladin, what is it going to do? Chop your head off for a little bad manners?")
Mavic's too uptight though. He's like Batman, without the sense of humor and lighthearted banter.

Aye on the crowds. That is why I changed it to something non contagious. And with my +18 diplomancy, I am not far behind. Tack on a +12 bluff and I could do some convincing myself.
Along this topic. How will we present ourselves in court. I assume I would be silent with the king and if need be work/convince the "kings" cabinent to go our way?
PS I have one more reply IC when we get together. than I am done with the "tom foolery".

This is a note to Rick, but it applies to everyone else as well.
The only problem I had with your whole "VD" post is that you posted the reactions and actions of people other than yourself. That's my job as DM. Yes, we are telling a story together, and all of you are as important to the story as I am, but by moving the plot forward in even the small way you did (talking to the guard and getting let past the checkpoint), you made my job more difficult, believe it or not. I had an encounter planned out, which now will have to be changed. The guard would not have just let you in, even if he had known you, even if you had been his brother. They had orders not to do that. That's why there's such a long line.
I'm not mad, by the way, but these kinds of boundaries are important to me for storytelling purposes. Only post for your character. It slows things down, yes, but otherwise things can get very complicated. No hard feelings.
P.S.: Don't worry about editing the post. We'll just deal with it as is and move on.
