This thread begins the next leg of the game, where GM (likely unsuccessfully) teaches of the wonders of rare-meat. Yes, I know Trump IRL likes his steak well-done, and to me that alone is evidence of controlled opposition. I still support the man, but dammit. Rare meat is the finest you can ever taste, satisfying immediate/basic hunger needs better than well meat, but also satisfying more primal urges and evolution. Remember, meat is only unsanitary if it is old or processed through a slaughter-house with poor quality control.

Enough about meat, lets get back to the game. Infernius is attempting to Leeroy Jenkins at the orcs, except that he has to climb a rope ladder to do so (cloven hooves = slower climbing). Tracy mulls about a very closed for business city that has cannons on the south-face, not yet realizing that unless she wants to go Nightmare (and thus ethereal but also glowing-in-the-dark) she's SOL.

"The gold and jewels have been coming from nearby localities, particularly Cardishore (they're absolutely swimming in money). The jewelry has likewise been going back to Cardishore and Sparintenar, and through them has been transferred further on by other contacts."

Tracy really doesn't like Trollestia though.. The most she'd ask her for is the protection of someone else at this point, although that could change in the future, just not immediately. I'll figure something out.
Also, ask him more about Cardishore

"Its a giant social media, self/group promotional, edifice of narcissism and entertainment. The city was founded in response to,... a musical phenomenon that was once known throughout the Game, but which went missing. A few wealthy patrons got together and started a talent search, which gained money, fame, and recognition. Over time it continued to develop, until now it's a vast and successful major city centered around the pursuit of glory, praise, money, and marketing."

She first has to find a way to explain why the dungeon is kill, and that she had one in the first place.. I'll figure it out after I do the math..

"You've probably seen the line outside. Those are the people without particular skills and talents, who desperately cling to the idea that if they just stand in line and wait their turn, someone will notice them and they'll be admitted inside and experience some fairy-tale dream of success and grandeur. Those people never make it."

Most of it, yes. And yes she does. You'd have to talk to someone in/from Cardishore to find out more, since they're not just giving out the secrets/methods of success, nor what goes on inside.

You should definitely tell your Flashy about the situation so he can de-fuck it. He likes openness, especially relative to finding out from other people first

This. This is also why I/Thez went along with it, because character/biology considered, it is a remarkably in-character set of decisions and responses.

Both. Primarily thrown, but can be used as melee (they're considered shuriken, due to their size)

Yes, but 'hammered' causes the individual to function on a more instinctive and reptilian-brained level. While the reptilian brain is far less reasonable, it is particularly keen when focusing on more natural and subconscious aspects of interaction. Body language and voice intonation analysis is significantly increased, for example.
>>24191
Not much to speak of. Apparently previous parties didn't much care for local flora and fauna.

No, those are closely guarded secrets specific to the communities they would be found in/amongst. Its not like "today" where "Here is the tomb of blah blah, come by and visit, and be sure to check out the gift shop"

Alright, so much for arcana knowledge.. May as well delve into past relations.
What about destinations with specialized craftsmen or serviceable NPCs? Did any of the previous campaigners take note of places where they had equipment made, or exotic spells cast for them? What about potential allies to the party.

Again, the books are antiquated. Its been about 300 years since those books were published. I'd hate to concoct a bunch of details that are entirely irrelevant now.
I can say that Krenshal blur-blur "was" known for two things; autism, and autism. That IS in the books.
>>24200
The available merchants whom you're able to readily talk to all come from by land. They have traveled by foot and can't comment on ports.
Gee, its almost like GM is trying to get the party to ask the 1 living pirate they have at their disposal.

Thez gets bored and <whooof> leaves the stables. Ponymaru snuck out earlier, but was unnoticed 'cuz he got a good die-roll. Trollestia and Tracy (and eggs) remain.
>>24205
Its the bright red dot. Also the gold is the SJW/orc village, and the white dot is where the trolls attacked from.

And there you find Trollestia standing with her head out a window, and Tracy curled atop small car-sized eggs, emanating heat (and a little smoke) with a dazed yet contented look on her face.

IIRC, this is the first Trump has seen of the eggs.
