Game Discussion Board

Okay if at any point you as a group want to fast forward we can do so.

Also we can assume (if you all like) that everyone has been taught how to activate their symbol and basically it shines brighter with your sense of commitment to the oath.

Also keep in mind the magic interprets your intent although if you end up harming the village or a citizen it does register that as well and depending upon the intent and the action it glows a different variance of red (aka accidentally hurting someone or hurting someone while protecting another light red -- intentionally killing someone deep bright red). You then just have to report for adjudication to get the Oath cleansed -- or course the latter will most likely not report willingly.

As for meeting with Kezzel, the Oysters will not be ready until tomorrow after midday so if you want to visit Kezzel before you strike out [which I personally would encourage you to do ;) but it is your call] then we can fast forward until that time as well. All I would need would be your intentions for the rest of the day and first half of the next day.

I'm fine with continuing playing through this day, but if others would prefer to fast forward, I'm onboard for that as well. :D
But we do need to get other things than oysters as well, so maybe that should be the intentions if we do end up skipping the day. And I wanted to visit the Book Inn anyway~

Okay -- as an alternative I can do a split thing since I am guessing that the inbetween actions are not going to collide with the initial get going actions I can start that one while continuing with the current one.

I am pretty good at juggling multiple timed event threads.

I would prefer to fast forward to visit Kezzel in the afternoon with his requested food and assume we learn about activating the symbol.

Egret wants to go visit the Book Inn to acquire the food item there -- does anyone want to join him

Lex wants to go shopping for Holy Water and Salt -- does anyone want to join him.

Brindel seems to be opting to stay at the Rock Inn and call it a day, still all stressed out from going to Mamz Inn ;) and then pick up tomorrow after the Oysters arrive and go see Kezzel did anyone want to pitch in on the oysters to help Feliani perhaps acquire enough for everyone to partake?

Shump and Kroog are at Mamz Inn enjoying their time in town for now (I guess) until its time to leave town

So that would be 3 different time threads (no issue here) just need to know who else to include in where...

Who is going to go to the Book Inn just Egret?

Who is going to the market place just Lex?

Who wants to go visit Kezzel in the afternoon, Brindel and?

And I am assuming everyone is going to be ready to leave by the next morning, unless they accidentally get turned into a newt.

So please speak up so I know who to include in which threads.

Lex would like to go shopping for holy water and salt. Do you want to roleplay that out or just give me a flat cost and I'll deduct some gold from my character sheet?

That is up to you Arina -- which would you prefer -- things can sometimes occur under the most mundane of situations ;) -- then again maybe it will be just that simple -- I let the dice speak and let them choose many things it makes for a more interesting story that way.

And you could go with Egret to the Book Inn and then swing by the market place or you can each take separate journeys makes no never mind to me.

Also are you planning on visiting Kezzel with Brindel?


Basically I can hand-wave what you want to hand-wave (within reason) and role play what you want to role-play.

I'm re-reading my last post above and would like to clarify it. When Brindel visits Kezzel in the afternoon, he would like to bring the food Kezzel requested and is willing to contribute up to 5 Dragons (what he has left) to the shopping effort. Brindel would be glad to accompany anyone on their shopping trip but will let others take the lead in talking to the merchants. Brindel hopes others will join the Kezzel meeting. Perhaps the party can learn more about the tower and the swamp as well as his axe.

The symbol I'm referring to above is the one on the characters' hands for the oath.

Finally, sometime between now and the afternoon meeting, assume those in the party who didn't hear the assignment got briefed out of earshot of the villagers.

Thanks rpgventurer -- yep and I got what symbol you meant but again thanks for that clarification -- just waiting for others to chime in so I can set things up appropriately

rpgventurer if Egret and Lex go 2 different directions who would you accompany?

Well, Brindel would go with whoever is shopping for Kezzel, but it's fine if Lex or Egret want a solo journey.

I do not think either was necessarily wanting a solo -- they were just going after 2 different set of items -- Egret was shopping for Kezzel

Arina will join Egret and Brindel is more than welcome if he would like to join us.

So if we're fast forwarding a little, consider that Feliani would've been briefed by the main party on their quest, and that she is agreeable to go along with it. If the party is moving out only tomorrow, after meeting Kezzel, that gives everybody some time to pursue whatever threads they need to pursue (or fast forward them). Feliani will continued to amass the food items necessary before calling it a night.

Okay I think Shump wanted to head out in the morning as that would allow the group to travel a normal distance during the day and get to a normal stopping place rather than having to scout a new one out kind of thing.

So the events would go -- Today: Finish gather supplies/food Tomorrow: Get Oysters/See Kezzel Next Day: Head out

Of course that could change but that is currently what I am understanding

However it would be nice if the rest of the other players would chime in here so we know they are still there

DeJoker, your understanding is the same as mine.

Brindel will join Lex and Egret.

I missed a lot of planning, but I'm okay with the result! Just let me get this straight, we're going to play it out, or are we skipping it and just declaring what we're doing? (I had an impression that you were talking about playing it out, but I'd like to make sure just in case.)

To clarify I am going to be doing several things -- but basically it boils down to running threads for the various aspects --

A) Thread(s) to cover shopping today
B) Thread for visiting Kezzel tomorrow
C) Thread for everyone leaving the next morning after tomorrow

These will all be launched basically in tandem but will be functioning obviously during different times. However, I do not feel there will be any issues with this unless someone decides to through a spanner into the gear box.

All I am doing is trying to give a day or two more for the others to chime in -- then I launch and/or sum things up depending on what happens

Thanks for the summary. I foresee Feliani will participate in threads A and B for sure, before she gets to thread C. I'm open to having these threads be as fleshed out or fast forwarded as necessary, as I'll simply adjust the level of detail I will put into the RPing.

I will probably start those threads tomorrow evening but I am hoping the last two chime in to at least let me know they are tracking these discussions and are aware of whats going on.

Oh, I understand the idea now! It probably might create some continuity issues, but hopefully nothing bad... unless shopping goes very, very wrong. XD
