I think I've made this post or a similar one before, but I'm trying to do my best to roleplay Vyeggar as a jerk without actually being a jerk to the players. If at all I write something that people find upsetting or that makes them uncomfortable, please please please let me know so I can dial back. I can be as obtuse as my half-orc at times, and while I'm trying to stay within the bounds of what's appropriate on RPGX, that doesn't mean I always pick up if something I've written is too far beyond the pale.

(Also, unlike Vyeggar, I'm conflict averse, so if it's easier to just do no bonus skills to keep it fair for all, I'm okay with that too. It's possible I'm reading too much into all of the above posts, as text frequently does not convey nuance. I just want to make sure people are having fun and not getting hung up over the small stuff. And again, if I'm reading too much into things that aren't there, please just ignore this).

You're all good in my book man; I know some people have trouble separating character action from player intent at times, but I'm certainly not one (a little bit of party strife can be just the flavor a game needs!). As for the skill points verdict, I would have been fine with either. I think most people got the result they wanted, but ultimately I doubt anybody's particularly hung up over it. This game seems like its going to be awesome, and I'm just looking forward to seeing the story unfold with all of you!

Noquarter19 -- while my character has the most conflict with Vyeggar, she is at least cooperating with (or using) him in the latest post.

As a zealot she is very protective of prostitutes, performers and the sorts of people his initial posts came of as abusive toward. Her loyalty to the entertainment professions is her religion, it's like a paladin's allegiance to lawful-good deeds. Focus Vyeggar's animosity away from the Family, and eventually Liana will get along with Vyeggar just fine.

10-4 good buddy.

Lentil, how much (if any) of what the guard said did Vyeggar hear? I'm just wondering, where he's pretty low life of a guy how much of a knowledge he'd have of the drug scene.

He'll have heard it all. As far as knowledge on suppliers go, make a Knowledge Local roll

What do you think of arm wrestling as an additional job to do? Purely flavor only.

73gp for a room for the night?!

Well Grim has either unwittingly picked up one of Sandraminae's protege's or the room he selected for the night was Tilly's and shes charging a heck of a lot for it, would explain why she was there when Grim and Phoenix showed up, i really should ask for her name shouldn't i?

Grim is not a considerate lover, it seems xD

And there is a reason as to why Tilly is being such a tool beyond just being a tool and how she knew he was there, but down that path is spoilers.

@Touketsu, Damien paid 25gp for Urin's room.

The next post will probably be some point this weekend at the latest, hopefully earlier. I'm assuming that everyone will want to get straight to the Dragon Road Herbalist as soon as they're awake tomorrow (in game tomorrow), or is there other business you'll want in the morning?

I'm hopefully going to update the Address Book tonight with some more of the NPCs you've been speaking to. Further elaboration on that will probably be made in the next DM post, as a few of you are wanting to ingratiate yourselves in with the staff of the Dead Mermaid.

Also, ignore the post in the dice rolling thread. There's no secret rolls going on. Just go back to sleep.

I was actually going to ask about that. Damien is definitely trying to network with as many people as possible in the casino; I'll spend as many nights as it takes making rounds until he's on a first name basis with every person of consequence there.

Kara will pick up a pack of blunt arrows, just in case non-lethal force is requested.

Emphasis mine. Urin is listed as friendly to Liana and indifferent to Damien, and I wasn't sure if that was a mistake based on her character info.

It is indeed a mistake. I miscounted the column.

Sorry about holding you guys up; it's been a pretty packed week for me. I'll have a post up by tomorrow, I promise.

Hey guys; Lentil wanted me to pass along that his farm's internet is currently so bad that it's preventing him from even loading up the site. DM posts will resume once he's able to get a more stable connection.

Thanks for being patient.
