OOC

Yes, she is still in the common room. More towards the bar than at your table.

Purposely left it vague in case the group wants to continue with the dinner conversation, I don't want to take the spot light if they want to continue as a group.

I hogged it a bit myself, so I'm fine with changing camera focus. Plus, since it's PbP, it's a lot easier to maintain multiple scenes/perspectives than trying to keep it straight in person. We'll probably be able to continue our conversation regardless.

How far away is the sink with the dirty dishes?

From the center island, about 5 feet.

I wanted to apologize for being AWOL for so long. My car got stolen a few days ago, so I was pretty distracted with getting all of that sorted out. I'll get caught up in what happened while I was gone, then be ready to drop back in.

Oof, that sucks. Take your time and slide back in when you can.

I'm unsure how this works but the equipment pack I took came with a chest. How does that work with carrying?

Ah, the diplomat's pack. Let's call it a chest for your papers, ink, and pen, sized about 14"x9"x5.5". How you carry that is left to your character, and I look forward to what you come up with. :)

Considering the chest is almost half the size of Coda, you're most likely going to be disappointed.

Coda put his full name 'Coda Ostinato' and for whoever doesn't write their own, he put what they introduced themselves at the tavern.
So:
'Kalis Verimas'
'Maenor Holimion'
'Geno'
'Brother Gustav'
(skipping Daniel as he's a man wrapped in mystery and he didn't introduce himself at the table) 'Daniel Locke'

I just now realized that I neglected to do that, how terribly rude.

Really? We're putting our real names? We are the worst spies ever.

Maenor's name technically isn't signed yet. Theoretically the only names on the paper is Codas, Genos, and Daniels. I wrote it to give the rest of you the option to sign yourselves in for that exact reason but speed along the post. I, personally and in character, didn't see a reason for a fake name though. I don't consider us to be spies at all, just part of a secret organization.

Yeah, and in character I totally agree. I was just teasing. :) Thanks for giving us the option, and for keeping things moving!

I need to get a couple things so I'm fine with skipping the "buying" process, so I don't take up the story with shopping.

That's fine. Just post what you ended up purchasing and deduct the appropriate expenses. Anyone else going to do anything while you're in town?

Nope, I've done my shopping. If people do want a donkey or mule, I can contribute 2 gp.

Purchased:
20 crossbow bolts and case, dagger, soap, whetstone, 10 pieces parchment, extra pouch, three candles, two pieces chalk, signal whistle

All good!

Purchasing:
Pouch - 5 sp
Oil (Flask) x2 - 2 sp
Lamp - 5 sp
Paper x5 sheets - 1 gp
Chalk x5 - 5 cp

Total: 2 gp, 2 sp, 5 cp
