It makes me sad that you would think a simple festival is somehow going to end in murder. I mean it probably will but still. Also murder isn't against the law unless your an official? See this is exactly what I was talking about when I said we should be looking out for the common people of the city.

In Ravnica, killing itself is not illegal but it is illegal to disrupt commerce by killing a trader or business person. Which was so great to me when I read it, not because I support killing homeless people, but because I thought it was a good way to balance the need for adventurers to be able to kill people and the need for not total anarchy. (At the end of cop action movies, I often wonder, "Wow, that Internal Affairs investigation is going to be crazy.")

Fair enough. Still I think this is going to be something that gets right on Zau's back; unless you starving and kill for food then it's just wasteful. Fight out your issues, leave each other battered and bloodied, but killing? That's just needless.

Oh, I'm not saying it is not ethically wrong. I was just talking about the reasoning behind it.

I am currently using a straightedge to check lines from squares to light sources to demarcate lightly, heavily, and totally obscured terrain. I am not sure I am going to go through this much effort every time.

ETA: I just finished and it took forever but it's beautiful.

ETA2: To establish this for everyone, gp and sp are in paper notes in various values (e.g., 1 gold note, 5 gold note, etc.) and cp are in coins with holes so the copper can be strung together.

Home, will edit my post from earlier to have better intro fluff... will respond to clank... will try to polish off my sheet ... and then once I've done updating all my games and characters I'll work solely on backstory.

And if I remember, I'll eat tonight too.

Paper money is generally a note saying that the holder of the currency is entitled to some amount of precious metals (such as gold) in exchange for them, right? And its value is based on a treasury set up by the area (city, county, country, etc), and its inhabitants have agreed the paper is worth that currency. Are these notes universal to all cities / countries in your world, are they recognized as currency when traveling outside of our current city? Or by smaller towns / villages outside major cities? And what central body has made/distributed/promised this currency? If the currency isn't standardized throughout the world, how do merchants do business with local regions? Sorry, I just need to know how this is going to work.

That is how paper money works if it's on a gold standard or something, yes.

The gold note is universal. Though local currency may look and be called differently, 1 gold note is equivalent in all currencies and is recognized as such.

First post edited, and the second one up. Sorry for the delay there Clang! Lead on.

Going to be posting in my other games here, but definitely will be around to continue RP.

I've made some more notes to my sheet DS, I think thats everything save for the backstory.

If I wanted a chest in my room or something is that bought out of the starting cash?

A standard chest is free, as is most standard furnishing. You only get one immediate chest per round though.

A long as its a nice chest, I'm okay with only getting one chest per round. *cough*

Uh oh, Squinty and I are the face characters

And we saw how well that worked out in your game when I tried to play a face character. I say you take this one.

Well, my worse diplomacy is still a 12. So there's that. It beats negative numbers.

That'll do. XD

(1) Gold is represented by paper notes, so fool's gold may not work as currency.

(2) Aren't we being good people? Wouldn't it be kinda a bad thing if we played pratical jokes and conned people out of money?

~SE++

Came here to address the (1) above, I had actually typed up my response but then it hit me...

Are gold coins a thing or soely the gold notes, ie paper money. If not they perhaps gold bars or some such could be faked.

Sai is unaligned, but Im not sure where he stands on con jobs. Normally I'm a rogue and I'd be all over it, hell even my rangers are a bit con man-y. I've got bluff down, cause I figured he'd be one to bend the truth a bit, but I should figure out more of his presonality.

Bed time for now.

Gold exists but trade is done with paper notes. But I had conveniently decreed that lace is the component of deception rituals so you're just turning lace into paper. Also, generally any inconsistencies from me switching out metal coins for paper notes will just be handwaved.

On the fool's gold question - we could take a Robin Hood approach, only using the fake gold on the wealthy/evil, and donate a specific amount of real gold to the poor.

Hahaha! Fool's Gold. I foresee no possible way this could horribly backfire on us! No seriously this is going to end in tears. The mere fact this ritual exists means every merchant is going to carry around a Gem of Trueseeing or something. Just watch.
