[Nightmares of the Second Age] The Daily Scribe

[Sherwood]

Also true. But, the agents in Creation don't know about the Bronze's disaster in heaven, and orders can still be sent out to various parties by Kejop.

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

A little earlier, Leafar asked if he could be put in a small XP debt to purchase an additional Charm. I'm short 2xp for a 4th Charm, would it be all right if I did the same?

 

[Sherwood]

OH MY GOD! HOW DARE YOU ASK ME SUCH A THING? I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! :mad:


Just kidding.


Yes, two points of xp debt is fine. Just don't make a habit of it.

 

[JayTee]

I almost never see the word Popinjay used. Such a fun word.

 

[MrSerious]

So you're saying no training time for E6?

 

[Sherwood]

You have been blessed by the Unconquered Sun with his favor. Go for it if you have the points.

 

[Arynne]

Is anybody going to tell Aurora there's a new Eastern Goddess of War?

 

[Sherwood]

I'm sure that will come up soon enough.

 

[MrSerious]

If I want to acquire a new exotic Craft like Craft: Sentience do I need to start paying for it for dots 1->5 or do I but craft 6 and get an extra craft ability also rated at 6?

 

[Sherwood]

So you're saying no training time for E6?

Don't forget, you were present when your manse was blessed by the US, so it could be a effect of being so close to your patron god that you get your Essence upped.

 

[MrSerious]

Aurora needs to challenge Ryu to devise an orichalcum heart

 

[JayTee]

Didn't we houserule that craft is all one skill instead of 5+ irrationally divided skills?

 

[MrSerious]

Yes and that's fine for the 'mundane' crafts (earth air fire etc) but I feel the need to check its ok for the exotics.

 

[Sherwood]

If I want to acquire a new exotic Craft like Craft: Sentience do I need to start paying for it for dots 1->5 or do I but craft 6 and get an extra craft ability also rated at 6?

For an exotic one like that, buy them as specialties. For Craft, I allow no limit to the number of specialties for all the esoteric options you have. That way, you can use your regular roll with the specialty and not have to buy the skill a dozen times over.

 

[MrSerious]

So I just pay 3xp and I get sentience at my full craft value? O.o

 

[Sherwood]

Are you going to complain?

 

[JayTee]

/clamps hand over MrSerious's mouth


Nope, he's definitely not going to complain!

 

[Sherwood]

Good. Makes me glad to hear it.

 

[MrSerious]

Heh. Oddly enough a part of me does . Guess it comes from years of spending 150+xp buying up to 7 different Crafts to make an artifact.


If that's your ruling I'll take it. Just feels weird being so easy

 

[Sherwood]

Well, you guys are not low level schmucks, but instead, you are excellent at your chosen professions already. I'm just trying to reflect that fact.

 

[JayTee]

Out of curiosity, did Tiger get anything from the Sun's visit, or was his sacrifice not sufficient?

 

[Sherwood]

Are we about ready for me to post a return to Creation thread yet? I don't want to rush things if there is still more posting to be done.

 

[Lord-Leafar]

If there's any spirits we could contact right now I say we should do it, otherwise I'm good with returning to Creation.

 

[Sherwood]

Hmm. There are the war gods that Aurora want to meet, but that will take some time to arrange. A few days at the earliest.

 

[MaHaSuchi's700]

Remember, while it hasn't happened yet in a thread Storm would have most likely notified you all before leaving that Ejava wants to have a meeting on neutral ground. There's no telling when it will happen, either, but most likely soon.
