[Information] How This Works

[Wretch]

As I've mentioned in a previous post, each day, you guys will be allowed to roll a gather information check (Considering that: 1. You are in town 2. You've had time to hear rumors and have been exposed to the information. For instance if your character stays in his Inn room all day, he wouldn't have much of a chance to learn about any rumors or whatever else).

Now these checks will result in your character having heard about rumors, Jobs and even quests all of which will add to the game and make things more interesting.

Having said that though, I now need to stress something, even though some of the quests you learn about will be labeled as such from the start , some of the stuff you hear might start out as a mere rumor, but may eventually lead to a quest or other interesting goodies. Keep that in mind before dismissing things as ''just rumors''. Now thats not to say that every rumor will lead to something, most will lead to nothing, but don't leave anything unchecked until you are sure, this way you won't miss out.

Now whether it's a rumor, job, or a quest, each of these have a DC, meaning a score you need to beat with your gather info in order to unlock the said bit of info. That means that some of you might learn about more stuff then others and you can then choose to share or not.

You'll notice that some DC are negatives (EX: -2) this means that the rumor in question is so wide spread that everyone knows about it. So in other words, if your given any chance to gather info, you'd unlock all rumors with negative DCs immediately. You'll also notice that DCs get lower as days pass, this is because the rumor has had time to spread about and is more generally known to the population.

There will be exceptions to this however, some rumors are secret and known only by a select few, the DCs of those rumors will never decrease and in fact, some of these might not be possible to learn about through use of gather infos. So as to avoid complicating things further, we'll get to those in time.

Anyway, this is it for now, I'll start posting in here immediately, though you guys might not be able to read about them just yet.
