OOC Chat and Planning

I really appreciate you continuing to DM the game Nictorah! I am having a bunch of fun so far, even as I try to establish who Torhak is and what his role will be.

I'd love a fancy item, legendary or not, though level 6 is fun too :) So vote is for item, but happy either way.

Now I'm tempted to say that Lali needs a Belt of Storm Giant strength just to see the look on Torhak's face when she beats him in arm wrestling.

Looks like item has won out. Balance would be difficult depending on the item, but fun. If you prefer, for the sake of the game, maybe we go with a rare / very rare wonderous item? Also, it's not like I'd just hand them to you. Where's the fun in that? You'll earn them.

I realized the type of player I am, when I set this up, then saw your responses. I totally thought it was gonna be the free level up.

Lol, that's amazing though.

P.S - For 37 and Tryne, I wanted to make sure you know you could totally attempt to copy the professor's notes before Kalli's patron arrives. (or could have begun to do so from the night before... it's just a lot of parchment)

PPS - I exported our adventure into a word document for fun... Chapters 1 & 2 alone are 700 pages... and 120000 words...

I certainly didn’t do that on my own. The DM may plan out the adventure, but the players breathe life into them. You guys are awesome!

I love levels as much as the next person, but items are so...crunchy :)

In general, an item's rarity is a fairly bad indicator for its power - I'm looking at you Universal Solvent and Staff of Power :).

Consider using a list like this one, where clever people have tried to do a more fair comparison: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8XAiXpOfz9cMWt1RTBicmpmUDg/view?resourcekey=0-ceHUken0_UhQ3Apa6g4SJA

This will always be very subjective, but I think it will be more easy to balance that way.

With all that said ... can I please have the Scroll of Tarasque Summoning? It's really important to my build :)

😯😯😯😯

KAIJU!!

:)

I didn't mean to derail the discussion with the list of magic item prices. I'm perfectly fine either way.

My thoughts so far on items that would be fun for Lali (in no particular order):
- Crystal ball
- Cloak of displacement
- Some kind of instrument
- Something with fire to go with the ring (maybe simply an encounter with a fire elemental to unlock its properties)

Oh, and it would be fun if someone picked up a sentient item :)

I've already got big plans for my weapons. 🤔 I guess I'd like better armor.

New ideas:
- It would also be cool to have something to help secure the hall. Permanent Guards and Wards would be nice. :)
- Can we upgrade the cart with an intelligent talking elemental, paint it black, and call it KITT? Our driver's surname is Knight, after all. :)

We aready have Famul on the payroll. Let's just download him into the titans body

That went well, was worried Tothak was going to go full Karen in the carpenter

There was definitely a moment when I thought about it...and then was like naw, I like it here lol

So everyone gets 100 GP. And 100 into the 'base fund', or is that going to the carpenter?

So far, everyone gets 100 gp, plus 100 to the base

I leave it to Torhak to figure how the lumber money goes.

Torhak paid for the lumber, he wont' ask for that money back, so the 100 can go in the group fund and he'll take his 100 gp from the job as repayment.

Nah, this is exactly why we have a group fund. I'll subtract 20gp from the current fund to repay the 120gp Torhak spent.

Is there a reason Torhak isn't allowed to pay from his own funds?

An individual shouldn't be expected to fund things for the team.
