Game continuation bread, where the party gets ready to wander off into parts unknown, potentially in different directions or to different areas. More bantz to go on in the meantime, but last bread got stale so here's a fresh one.

Those are the spells that can be chosen from, but she's still limited by how many spells she is committed to. Meaning, if she chose feather fall and disguise self, she would not have access to the others. These choices are permanent until Assassin lvl 6.

For those who may be joining us, let me briefly detail the purpose of these threads, so they don't all have to be read-through (there's alot).

The whole point to these threads is 1st - to provide a venue of entertainment, interaction, and what-the-hell else ever (read shit/fun-posting, bants, and general social interaction over a board which by its nature doesn't allow for literal interaction). ITT we play characters based on classic table-top roleplaying rules and systems, where players can express whatever degree of creativity they are inclined to express, in a world that is far more lax about what is 'possible' than the real world.

The practice of expressing and experiencing one's creativity is cathartic in a number of ways, as it allows the player to either explicitly or implicitly take steps against many of the obstacles that they may experience in real life, surrounded by friends and allies who are generally willing to be there for one another, even if they don't agree (which is often).

In between working with/beating-on one another, the group is presented with a variety of contexts and problems through which they are encouraged to creatively work around or circumvent, and ultimately defeat.

Individual players - GM most especially - come from a variety of real-world shitholes (as far as personal experiences and troubling pasts) and this allows the player to work through, processes, sort, and come to terms with said experiences in a more permissive environment than the real world provides. Most players spend a great deal of time on the site for varying reasons, and this gives them something to occupy themselves with while they're doing it. It is - in short - the best answer I can offer to continue to help mitigate the Black-pills which can result of both shitty life experiences and the disposition of consuming too many Red-pills.

So, if you're reading this "that one particular anon", feel free to lurk, read/back-read (again, there's lots) and get lost in this constantly progressing and developing world - a playground if you will - and if you ever feel inclined to participate I will be here several hours of every day to respond and accommodate to the best of my ability. ^_^

forgive me for intruding (pls no bully), but why did you want to give up on black guard and go for assassin? At its first level, assassin doesn't give many benefits, while black guard and rogue give at least attack bonuses as you advance. Most of the good assassin stiff requires something like three levels in it

K, just checking. I've been back-reading, but I wanted to make sure. Encumbrance has more to do with speed than anything, and with the quiver your equipment (stored) doesn't affect weight allowance. Heavy armor would diminish speed is all.

To put things in perspective (this would have been ascertainable by simple conversation and/or eavesdropping) upon the party's liberation from the rats, the city had new purpose and direction. With something to do other than fish and squander resources on the rats' inflated economic structure, the people took to the new initiatives with great zeal and interest. Craftsmen and technicians suddenly had worthwhile projects to direct their attention and skills toward, which only increased after the 2nd Soros fight (rebuilding and renovating). Additionally, they had an opportunity to see that in addition to community development, there was a need for individual development, which they also took to under the guidance and leadership of much of the party. The city now operates as something of an ancap nationalist community, both supporting and assisting one another and working for the betterment of the whole. Through these developments, trade and traffic increased, as the port had become viable and competitive once again, which brought more business, information, and travelers en route to other places. Additionally, the increasing wealth and prosperity brought people from outside the area who wished to take part in the developing community, rather than try and stake it out on their own. This will/is becoming more significant as the absence of the Nerd/Dog made it less risky for random monsters and things to venture out and not get eated by circumstantial exposure, which meant greater threat to outliers. So while the city develops and grows, so do the forces that would confront them, causing a greater unification of the city which only strengthens the community cohesive-ness.

This ain't an encounter, this is a "damn it, I'm going to find something hard to kill and I'm going to kill it" sort of thing. I guess there's not really a way to guarantee that a dragon is an adult, for instance, versus a great wyrn or a wyrmling. (The difference is fatal I know). But there's got to be a way to go into a locale and yell "come out and fight!" Or at least see if there are any monsters (maybe human bandits) rumored to be operating anywhere.

No. Double, simultaneous sneak attacks is the limit (both pistols for example).
>>20447
Its fine. I encourage more questions, as one of the things I've been getting from those "Betterer GM videos" is on how to be more accomodating, involving, compelling, etc. Asking questions during the week is precisely what I prefer, cuz anytime I get a bunch of questions - especially those I can't answer right away - allows me to allot time during my vocational time (which, though labor-intensive is remarkably mentally permissive). I've got a white-board and everything so I can develop ideas and process/progress the desired elements.
In closing (literally, about to walk out the door) keep them coming. If I don't get to them more or less immediately that doesn't mean I won't, though a timely reminder is both appreciated and encouraged.
Any last thoughts, questions, requests, etc.? My main focus for today is "Crafts, monsters, City infrastructure (trade, development, economy), Citizen armies, Side-quests, NPC (Slovenia, +) development, Magic Item potentials, Inter-nation-state aspects (rumors, information), Evolving faction agendas, and Hugs.
