With Nuts of course.
Happy Holidays to everyone! Whether you celebrate Christmas, Yule, Hearths Warming, or some other degenerate (Kwanza) or (((unspoken))) tradition, I hope you have a safe and 'as happy as possible' holiday season as you no doubt maneuver in and out of the world of normies and others!
I have no idea if any crucial gaming will occur weekend, but its about to get funky-fresh on several fronts. We last left Torcuil trying to navigate through Krenshal for someone skilled and crazy enough to build a Robo-ponk. Trumpaladin and Tracy were getting their things together to hunt a Unicorn with Elway's blessing and direction. Thez is being a little bit emo (its the hormones) while Infernius continues being a dutiful and upstanding guy.
What will happen next, and in what order? Will the players defy GM's careful designs for the umpteenth time? You can bet on that!

Its not really plans anymore, its more ideas of why its happening this way. What happens from there is anyone's guess.

So I alluded to it in OP but yes, finding "the right gnome(s)" isn't going to be easy, and gnomes are difficult to interact with and roleplay as it is. I'm telling you this as a meta explanation of why Torcuil hasn't been successful yet. There are all kinds of workshops, and that's just the ground level. The city walls actually lead to the edge of a cliff, where in segmented and burrowed-into-the-cliff-face levels a sprawling and often disorderly oasis of autistic creativity has been made. Tools and gadgets whirl and move of their own accord, pidgeons fly everywhere this way and that, all of whom carry a tiny scroll or pouch, its all the romanticism and innovation of the renaissance writ large, except with a hint of gnomish tactless-ness. Welcome to Krenshal.

>disorderly oasis of autistic creativity
I fucking like it. Also, I know nothing of gnomes so I guess its research time.
Torc's is amazed by the intrestingness of it all, and then begins to look for a town map or something of the likes.

There is an empty booth with a blood splotch on one side that says "Information", but there's no one seated there at the moment. Other than that, there don't seem to be any distinguishably evident areas. There's a mess of hallways and doors, but gnomes are quick and efficient on their feet and leave no room for an obviously out-of-place fellow to slip in amidst the bustle.

"Well that's just great"
Welp, my best idea is for Torc to polynorph into a gnome and slip in.
Objections?

oh that's a beautiful idea. I had thought that if I quit the game and Trumpaladin showed up in s future version as a Blackguard Villian, he'd have an obnoxious Warhammer as a weapon that he could point at any player and freeze their actions for d8 rounds or something like that
Well, I would talk to the gnomes, figure out what they want and like and don't like, then ask for the information I want, then use my knowledge of the gnome's motivations to arrange a deal that gets me what I want.
But your "have sex with the gnomes" idea seems more entertaining to watch. Try it

>sex
I promise you thats not what I'm planning.
Plus, its easier to get information when you don't look like a complete and total outsider.
Plus I need someone who can do what I'm looking for before I start making deals.

Behind the first of the otherwise "gnomes only" doors, Torcuil finds the beginnings of a long hallway, with gears, sprockets, and shafts lining the halls and intersections. It appears that a certain degree of power is transmitted throughout the city by way of mechanical devices.

Does this tower have an anti-shrine, where I can get guidance on how to be moar ebil or become moar powerful? Something like the Yuzuhara shrine to soccer?

You mean the whorehouse? Where people beat eachother senseless and then have fivilous and copious amounts of contractual sex (hetero only)? Yes, there is such a place. You can decorate it with divegrass iconography if you like.

She established/conquered/etc it while she was diabolical, right?
Also, does the tower have a machine that can produce masterwork daggers and/or lances? I want to make some more.

A lance-head is a fancy dagger, so yes to both. The Lance-head machine uses denze metal stamped in an octagonal shape with a hexagonal spear-point, barbed on one side.
There's a bunch of dagger machines. Which one?

With the animated demon-gauntlets.
The magick Hoers-shoes allow both her and her rider to make Spirited Charge attacks, so she can do Triple Damage with a single strike from a lance while she's charging.

>A lance-head is a fancy dagger, so yes to both
Can she use her daggers as lance heads? That way, it could be adjustable.
>Which one?
ALL of them!
I g2g for a bit..

A grumpy gnome extends their hands expectantly. "Whda'dyoubringme,Ihaven'tgotalldayyourandomnewbiewhogottheirpositionbecauseof,..." she has the presence of mind to stop at this point.
>>36710
That depends on the effect. I know the classic "paladin"route is a big shiny suit of plates, but thats low energy bullshit. Piece-mail is where its at. You can have a spaulder + murder, a chest-plate of eating faces, a girdle (giant strength or w/e),Bracers of salted earth,... My point is, if you are creative enough you can have whatever array you want. You just have to decide on it and be willing to wait the requisite time.

I swear, you guys all hate me.
Torc jumps back a bit, starteed by the gattling gun of words infront of him.
"Hold up, slow down. I'm not from around here, so stop with the requesting. Second, who are you?"

All on Fae?
I've recently become enamoured by the way Templar knights are depicted. In most images they are completely covered in armor, and you can often see that they are wearing chain mail suits underneath plate armor... Just like Trumpaladin. It's just a beautiful way of saying "good luck hitting me under 30+ AC."
I'm less of a fan of the way Templar horses are depicted. They have white cloth on them that makes them look like Ku Klux Klan horses. Now, now, the really sexy horse armor that I like is the Cataphract armor of the Byzantines, Sassanids, and Armenians. THAT is how you armor a horse.
Unfortunately I don't think I'll be Cataphract-ing Fae, since there is a mobility penalty for anything heavier than light armor. Chain shirt is the heaviest in that catagory, although I like the aesthetics of my little pony partial plate better. The coolest enchantments are etherealness and dimension door. I absolutely intend to try to get a belt of strength for her at some time, since I want her strength up.
I can wait for all of that. But in the meantime, a +4 AC chain shirt is desired
