[OOC] Death & Taxes

Tough choices... Heightened Awareness or Counteroffer... *strokes beard*

Oop! I'll be banking it I believe... this reminds me...

I should take the knack for it shouldn't I? But I have so many T1s already ...

T1s and T2s... Those things are just so easy to buy up... so much to do with them.

It's a handy talent, and probably worth a rank or two if the GM is doing their job adding setbacks to checks when warranted. One rank gets you -2 setbacks on one skill, two ranks gets you -2 setbacks on three skills. But you can always try to brute-force those setbacks by using your Augment spell more profligately; that adds more potential successes and advantages to counteract the setbacks with magically enhanced ability. Up to you, really!

Facing a writing deadline today, and have to prep something for tomorrow. Sorry for the delay; I should be able to update things sometime tomorrow, or Wednesday latest.

No worries man don't stress take your time.

Bringing the wine to the festival is a great idea if you want to impress the village folk! I didn't want to step on your toes if you had intended to sell it or something. We can suggest that you left it with the farmer to bring with him in the evening. Your horses are at the mayor's barn, not far from the Galbernost farm.

I believe you and Bruv are teaming up to go to the trading post, and he's got his cestus, which basically looks like big, metal-studded gloves, so you two should be fine. If Tronus is going to the manor, he can probably keep his weapons with him. Nera, too, with her bow. Those are the two most obvious weapons that would merit the setbacks, aside from Nekurr's dagger.

Sorry, if the party is all together at the mansion, we can keep that post for latter. I though we were splitting already.

You'll break off shortly. But until the manor, the path was the same.

All that knowledge and insight :D

Lol, his lack of 'book learnin' in this regard seems to have let Hildar down....although on that roll swapping a couple of Green dice for Yellows probably wouldn't have altered the result overly :)

Sounds like a plan... So far it all fits and Isle was trying to steal the liquor, but there could still have been something inducing him to do so... particularly with magic dolls and hallucinogens being used around here and this strange fertility that just smells like magic :D

Background info on him as being heavily in debt due to gambling or being crap at it but still doubling down and needed to clean up his act before he got back from this business trip or his marriage was over should be considered. Disgruntled guy walking in like he owns the place and opting to snag alcohol due to a state of depression which isn't within his rights and getting into an altercation does fit the douche stereotype. Need a few more facts before I'd say we have an accurate timeline and possibly the truth. Since we've also found out there's this guy named Isle working for the Baron who's clean shaven no nonsense and has his stuff together... vs the disheveled sleep deprived alcoholic divorcee I was expecting to find with a log on his shoulder about how his life is poopy.

right, I obviously only remembered the liquid that could be some sort of liquid :D

Seems like we've lost Remnant and Mcneils5 (hopefully only temporarily). Remnant's been quiet in my other Genesys game, too.

Since they're instrumental in reading the documents in the mayor's house, let's give them a bit more time. If I haven't heard from them by Monday, we can assume their characters read over the two documents Nera found and go from there. But hopefully they find their ways back!

In the meantime, I'm happy to let Bruv and Nekurr keep hitting the gravel around the village. We're in no rush, but it's good to maintain a bit of forward momentum.

That cat will just flirt with all the ladies around and spend all his money until they return :D

LOL. Flirting is a valid investigatory tactic. :)

I forgot to add: Somebox, feel free to have Nera poke around in another part of the manor if you wish. We can assume she alerts Tronus and Hildar to the books she found, so no need for you to be paralyzed waiting for that line of inquiry to progress.
