> [World Tree] is a raid party based skirmish where each player takes control of a single adventurer. As a successor to the Floors name, it uses a retouched system that will solve the problems its predecessor had. Players must work to explore the roots of the World Tree. New players may [Wander in] anytime however will be placed randomly.

> As player populations begin to grow, we approach the cap of 30 players in a field, there maybe those that require botting or those that can simply be dismissed. This does not stop one from creating an adventurer however.

For at the time our business had been with the Knot that festered under the town's church. Their insistence to be built so close to it comes to mind when we saw what their private execution chamber had become...

though we didn't see firsthand what became of it, Harokem had scouted that it simply imploded on itself.

All while we await the return of a local threat what took up residence on top of that wretched knot. But that should not have figured in to our concerns at the time. Despite the absurdity of it all. The knot was no more after all, along with their reasons for staying. Unless we missed something.

I apologize for bringing you back to this world, a dream within a dream, that is but a veil of tears, for your work is not yet done, and your comrades yet need you."

Placing a foot down that only items can be distilled. Get items from corpses. this can no longer be short cutted or improvised around.

Fine by me, but then how is distill resolved since it takes an action to distill something looted on the same turn? I can't reasonably assume I'll get an item from a corpse every single time. Or can I?
>>
>>1876658
No problem with you at all, but Some Things Are Not Done.

If the Things Are Done, even if it says repeatedly Not To Do Them, Rabbit becomes increasingly irate at harrowing world.

Problem is not you at all, and is not personal.

Problem is Misunderstandings Which Occur which will lead to Very Big Problems when happy-smart brewler distills 200 corpses and makes 100.000zny on xtal exchange-stock market.
>>
>>1876542
Are those giant green plants there to stay? Because that might be a nice sniping position!
>>
>>1876667
The question predicates that you loot from bodies 99 % of the time. Bodies have a % chance of not dropping anything. Visible resources and grounded materials on the other hand are readily available. Just like attacking an enemy there is a hit roll to determine damage , whether full or ineffectual. The two contradictory results are expected when performing this act.

It's an action to search a body and distill.
Theres a chance it wont work.
If that stops you then don't do it.

>>1876685
Rabbit thinks they add great ambiance to soon-to-be-market-stall! And he did say he would bring up possible sniper tower construction effort at next council meeting.

Is also happy to say that green trees are here to stay as sniper nesting towers for Hero Fika! Effective mayoral beaucracy, is Rabbit.

And recent construction of internal Dunnkirk Gate-Port Network to Hot Bath facilities makes using them even more effecienct-nice! Please enjoy sniper nesting towers and cultural statues of Avdol that Cultural Councillor Mordenkainenny has put up everywhere.

>>
>>1876734
>So that hasn't changed for the most part. Can I do this then?
>>move 4w
>>loot and distill body


Let's break this down.
> Loot: Looting a single target or tile is a once tap or act if more than one tile is being targetted.

> and distill: this is a different operation altogether but its being put in as the same act.
Furthermore we set up a system where you can distill any stack at the beginning of the turn for almost no act cost.
An act is procced for items done in the same turn. If one had to choose between 10 things converted all at once a turn later versus 1 thing converted at the cost of their energy right then and there which would you choose ?

>body: No.

There was a patch for this.

Witnessing a spell gives a chance to learn it like a weapon arte that is there anytime so long as you equip it. However after one rest that memory is forgotten unless written somewhere.

>Have 2 spears now

"In the confusion of hiding from those restless dead, the Knot's influence reached my mind. An infidelity to my... my... hm? An infidelity I don't care to repeat.

"It was hazy after that, you see, and still is. To enter the Knot... I lived a history of extremes of passion. A simultaneous litany of melodrama, uncontaminated by the decay of time or forgetfulness. A tide that would take a mind in or splinter it at any sign of reluctance. Nothing I could do but dive in. I was at least still myself enough to remember my purpose when I reached the secret center.

"There I was offered a wish of my own, but I could think of no use for it. I would have pronounced the Knot's undoing right then, but I felt it trying to tempt me with a cause, and I was curious.

"It is said that Abal lies in a secret kingdom in the heights of the World Tree. Many lives were lost in search of it, and more still to the Knot and its promises of a direct route. Scapegoats and scholars, taking solace in the nobility of the road their blood would pave. I might have been made to join them. But nothing, I understand, lies at the end of the road. The kingdom is never-was or dead, and the Knot could not rebuild it. Such a waste of life for a pointless venture.

"You saw the rest, I think, the souls who passed on instead of staying bound to cold solace. Some spoke of another place a Wish could have taken them, another returned to the Feywood, with whose residents I'm sure first contact will be thorny."

"... Since the moment I had you send me into the dark, I've had only my Undoing purpose to distinguish myself against the experiences of so many lives. But I led a team once. Now. Didn't - don't I? You must reintroduce me. The details. I have to get them right."

Last time it was based on request and delivered on the final day of activity. Think this time there'll need to be a small fee for withdrawing items from it in order to stuff the coffers with enough funds for future adventurers, covering any possible fees for collateral damage, covering fees for emergency couriers, etc etc. The numbers are still in the air, but it'd be pocket change in effect. Something like 5z per item, or for every 5 small items (such as ammunition). Xtals will be 33% of their market price when reduced to a x:1 ratio (so say Firas is 45z for 3 shards, it'd be 15z per shard in effect, so 5z to withdraw one from the loot pile)

I would like to point out that these funds if they manage to stock up high enough will be put towards party-wide benefits, such as the tank for sale or For-all bag improvements (which does include getting additional bags so then leaders and lieutenants have access to it 'stead of just team leaders, unless that's a no-go.)

To be more accurate, maining a combat class has weighed against considerations here despite having a support class subbed. It was definitely an edgecase.

Hello everyone, since we have hit player cap it's clear that taking more would be a bad as processing time are getting longer however there is a sidewise solution for those wishing to get in or free up space for new buns.

Rotation: Taking off for a dungeon day allows one to train in a new license without a Merit.

Patreon: Making this a paid service compensates me for my time and it also rewards players who participate in it. Naturally player participation as well as vouching for new ones is possible this way. Again, while it is not required that one pays to enjoy this game -- it is required for me to make exceptions on an otherwise untenable situation. Furthermore this doesnt affect game balance.

It can be found here.

" Luka Ishibashi
Honored re-founder of Dunndirk a town blighted by a curse, will be remembered as the first of many who would lead us to change the World for the better. Through him, the three Scholar Sisters of Abal were set free along with many other witches held in captivity of a curse. Or so the stories from that Humble Dunndirk wayhouse would retell in their halls.

Let this story reach the ears of new adventures wishing to brave the world under the Tree's shade, Yggdrasil's Roots or her winding Branches... "

The Self Writing book has spoken and more importantly, you did as well. Your future of a next generation has been assured, the treasure you gained should bring renown to many of the Ishibashi name.

" Well then... I suppose we need to find someone who can fill their spot.... Luka you dont happen to have any recommendations do you ? "

If there were any pressing reasons that brought up your reasons to retire we would gladly hear it, as well some feedback on what could improve. However if this is simply a temporary measure then we'll be glad to have you again !

I apologize deeply for my failings, but I am only human. I am no tactician and under my advice, three have already lost their lives and too many dodging their end by a hair's breadth. You too, Rabbitspaw. My heart cannot take any more.

I have gone against my nature to do what must be done but I cannot continue. This is as far as I can go.

But, come. I will not be leaving just yet. We still must send off these dead. Rest for now, it has been a long night. Yngvild, perhaps you would like to look at the guardian in the morning? Bardawulf's body must be located as well.

> Keep a Vigil
> Using my last Paper Seals, create 4x 'omamori' (insight)

The reason that I have been silent the past few days is that I was moving house. I will be starting my final year and will not be able to check on this as often as I would have to. Better that someone else is able to enjoy the game, I think. Thank you for everything.

As the frog hops out into the open. It meets the gaze of the Saurian terror. With 2 exchanges of breath and a tremor deep within in their bones Doof felt something like a primordial emotion. Out of respect, the Saurian terror continues onto its nest leaving the frog alone to get back to the town.

The language of Saurians were not like the words he thought they'd be.
Indeed, it was a language of power.

HOwever upon turn to look at the Titan, Doof could make out deep gashes and cuts upon Cranidyne's form. Something bigger has bested this now wounded monster, and the blood from the knot was not the only thing staining the stones of the blackened church. . .

The Kerbold pounds an even bigger sign and a respectable rope barrier around the stairs, with the monsters being properly disposed of by the vigil the inspector takes a wet towel and wipes his thick neck.

" There, " he declares, " despite these damages , a small pond there, an obstructive tree there, and what seems to be far too much gumbo uncleaned bowls, I can now declare this place fit for Children "

He walks away , leaving the sign to block the stairs to the Highwall.

No. We are in Cranidyne space, something we have to adhere to the spirit of.

Currently the remnants of the Knot fight a host of moblins. One will exhaust themselves to defeat while another will see fruitlessness in this struggle. Best not get in the way of their weird war.

"I'll have you know I've stayed up far longer than this instance and I can manage an extra hou-" the frog finishes their sentence with a sudden thud as they fall limp to the ground. While it was true they stayed awake for almost two full days before, they actually haven't eaten food for almost three altogether. The high spirit intake has finally taken it's toll, and brought the small frog crashing down.

With the conclusion of the first Chapter, World Tree will soon open a new chapter that will follow the adventures of Yggdra's Roots. With inevitable downtime the game will host a few more changes and additions chief of which is two fold;

Parallel Operations Deployment and linked Missions. (Smaller sized groups may tackle different maps in sequence.) This allows for increased player cap and faster processing times. As well as multiple stories to unfold.

Lunaria Calendar.
This feature will allow Dungeon days and weeks to be plotted out to the Lunar Weeks and Arbor Seasons, mapping out world events as well as operations.

More races ! Meet more interesting races that will soon find their way to Dunndirk.

Is not what Rabbit meant, peaceful Friend.

Rabbit meant Do Not Leave. For you are welcome *here*. Rabbit knows the family shrine calls with inexonerable-mighty gravity, but Dunnkirk also has a shrine or two or eight, and small town will need a smart maiden, yes?

And if you go, we cannot meet your sister. Much too many people for a family shrine! But your sister, she can come to visit us!

There is no shame-pain in not seeking violence or death, for the first rule of the Ancient Law is also "Life Without Harm".
(Rabbit interprets this one somewhat loosely, at the best of times)

Also, Rabbit has ulterior-sinister motive. He has no clue how to appease kamis, gods, monsters or elemental forces of nature. Having local shrine maiden with diplomatic tendency is sure to benefit civilian infrastructure and cross-specias communication. Mayora Office will even supply title and badge and cloak.

but not right now

Mayoral Office being Rabbit has to first make badge and cloak from heppa grass and think of title. Supreme Nice Person is working commitee's first idea.

5th of Shadeleaf. [Yes I goofed the calendar but now it would have to stick]
After our battle it was not soon after that word had spread of our deeds. People began flocking to our town and refugees from Farmer's way began to increase in number. It was clear that DunnDirk was becoming a haven for many when months ago it was drying up as a dungeon town. As a result The Wayhouse Federation and Yggdra's Roots pooled our efforts squaring people away and arranging for space in the town for everyone willing to work for it.

At the end of the day, adding in Tributes from other guilds and Avalon the contributions evened out to a mere 18,000 zny up front. With much more squared away for the town to develop and for the Wayhouse Federation's continued patronage. Though Bruno insists that their job was not of profit. Odd...


" Ah so you must be the one fated to meet me n - o ? "

" Do not be alarmed though you approach me I am quite anticipating of this event in fact I have prepared a most suitable reward for your travels "

>The woman approaches.

" Ah I see I soo , I saw, did you avoid the pots like I advised ? Yes ? No ? There was a patch and we didn't get to test it out ? Bah nonsense ! NONSENSE. We have here three cards.

ONE

THREE

TWO !

" Aha. So they have spoken. An inverted priestess, a rather dashing magician with no resemblance to me whatsoever and a pondling frog with a Lee Einfeld Rifle too good for this world. Now let's see here.. "

The woman digs through the instructions muttering to herself at the glossary of meanings.

" AHA ! An inverted priestess beware the false gods or false beliefs or just ones that are kind of bad. BUT THAT WAS IN THE PAST. NO MORE ! "

" And here in the present iiiiis... hmm Magician is oh OK "
" The Magician presents you with Oppurtunity perhaps information on such an opportunity and KNOWLEDGE. DASHING KNOWLEDGE brought forth by talent and hard work however when turned upside down could mean overconfidence in one's own ability or an unwillingness to broaden horizons ... oh but that DIDNT happen ok.. "

"And this one iss... "

" Ah. The Fool, the ability to make the impossible possible. Be wary of tricks Or very very smart dinosaurs even at its best it could signify an opening from a misguided path. Yes. I am done here, may we never meet again "

> The woman checks in on the nearby wayhouse for a week.

> It would seem that you have been given 3 cards. Fate cards are granted to you by a mystic reading, however due to their power they are only given to the Guild Leader to use.
> The Priestess - Though Inverted it is a favorite of Monster Tribes , when one offers the card up to the gods, a [Monster Stampede] will occur. Useable once per day.
> The Magician - The magician is capable of summoning weather. However it must be used at the beginning of the turn, and will also affect your party. Useable once per day.
> The Fool - When used on a single party member, will allow them to act again.

Oh! Nice-pleasant to see you again, missterious fortune-salesperson. Rabbit thinks you got it /mostly/ right last time!

" AHA ! ITS DEATH ! BLACK AND ForeBODING Hands reach out and rend snakes in twain ! Avoid the GIRL ! Avoid the SNAKES! But What's THIS ?
A reversal of fates - a Choice Made ! A battle of scale and steel Hmmmm.."


Hands reach out! And Rabbit was pulled into the sky. Avoid snakes? Snakes live in grass. Rabbit only got pulled into the sky because he was in the grass. Avoid the girl? Krista was very . . . womanly. And Rabbit made choice to rescue Yoko instead of himself, so Yoko saved us all by burning away her Spells. And scales and steel is obvious, yes-yes. Scale into the sky, and D'algers comes with Steel to rescue everyone.

Good fortune for 100zny prophecy of doom-death. Except of course not dead (yet).

Can hold on to your cards for now? Luka has just gone off to talk to her sister. Only leader here is party leaders Doof-Fleur-Harokem-Helga. So is short a card.

Well the Wayhouse Federation now recognizes you as Mayor apparent of Dunndirk and Yggdrasil's Roots as its Proprietor under the Lost and Found provision now to some matters at hand , we've sorted through some of the applicants looking for housing, seems we got quite a few people, but surprisingly not everyone seems to have been keen on -

* Cranidyne Roars in the distance*

Keen on the locale. "

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgKbyhdPwkA

> It seems some applicants have decided to sign up for housing in Dunndirk, currently property value is taxed at 10 zny per tile per Week, collected on Chronos. With that said, Penelope apprises you to the applicant list. You may keep them on refugee status, or accept their terms. Despite the minimum tax it is unsure if they will be able to make the payment each week.

1.Abalathian BlackSmith - Requires a 4 x 4 indoor space for smithing. Abalathians are superb for their sword Lore and bar jokes.

2. Hachibana Herbalist- Can open a gardening Shoppe that sells Heppa concoctions and pay extra on property tax. Will require at least 10 fertile patches and a 2x2 residence.

3. Hachibana Farmer - Can help around. Requires 3x3 Residence, has 2 children, will pay 300 zny up front.

4. Norr Warrior Hanz - Fought in the battle of Dunndirk last night. He's the Norr Warrior. Occupation: Defense.

5. Abalathian Warrior Gretel- Fought in the battle Dunndirk last night, He's the Dark haired one. Occupation: Defense.

6. [ForeRunners] Guild - A 6 man group who doesn't have a god to patronize them yet. The ... they owe the adventurer's guild money actually... Nevertheless they're preferred residence will be anywhere where there is a roof over their head. Or so they claim. Perhaps we can contain more of such people if we built a [Boarding House] but those require a cement foundation.

7. Ex Merchant- Caravan got destroyed during last night's attacks. Requires......
a 4 by 4 space for their cart to sell from. Will pay 2000 up front. He also wants a space that is bright and clean...

8. Hermit of the Tree - A wandering scholar wishes to take up residence here preferably somewhere indoors where they can read.

9. Wysterian Merchant- A merchant travelling with a very large pack filled with peculiar concoctions wishes to renovate the destroyed house to the north... but we'd have to pay the repair fee of 4000 zny....

10. Laborian Expatriot - A scientist would like to conduct experiments in a lab somewhere. They assure me their services suit you but im not sure. Aren't labs [Expensive] to maintain ?

11. A Frog Family that's Evacuated from their Pond ?? - They seemed very apprehensive but they seem to have travelled all the way here from the Other side of the Root. They say a [Draconic] army has attacked their VILLAGE. Th- there's about 7 of them but they can make do with any 5 by 5 spot with water.
As an added note.. it does not seem like they can pay for anything unless they work. But they did offer [Monster Parts]

" Oh There's More !"

12. Sayaki- " I am at your service " He wants an underground cave next to the river. Uhm.. he has a criminal record too > >
13. Retired Performer - " He's raising his nephews after their homes got burned down in Farmer's Way " Family Registry says " Fortaigne. They want a property with outdoor space or something in nature 3 x 3 in size.

14. Quill Quagmire - She's the spotter in last night's battle. She doesnt have much but she's willing to do hunting and scouting jobs for free-- that is until she decides to leave.
Hudson and Sons - This is a construction company. They want to set up shop here and help repair the town. They'll build their own spot so long as its 18 tiles in size and they can reduce construction costs by NEARLY 50% !? Ah that's right. They're also fans of Abobo.

15. Hongri Foreigner - For whatever reason, they fled their home and is willing to help around. They've paid 500 zny up front

16. Avalonian Travelers- This advenutring couple wants to settle down. Both are capable of doing any job adeptly and the adventuring guild has vouched for their reliability.


Limits: Currently our Wayhouse can only provide for your guild and 10 Souls.Children dont count and are therefore included in the numbered tickets.

Construction: Construction is costly and going from foundation to roof is 50 zny per tile. But anything on a stone foundation is simply 25, and making grasslands to road is 10 per tile. You want a road so that you can fast travel from one location to another even during evacuations.

Costs: Townsfolk are obligated to pay the land tax each week but outside of that they maybe profitable to the town or stress its resources. To add more conditions to their tenure you may set your conditions and it is on them to turn you down or accept it.

Expansion:
Hmmmm having access to the Highwall would expand this town greatly and drive up its value if you intend to sell it. Some may even request missions to get them a leg up , you will of course be properly compensated for those.

((Argh! I decided to edit and my ctrl+c didn't work before deletion.. I'm just going to redo it sloppy))

We need to discuss a few things:
• A council to help govern the settlement
• Inspecting and replacing faulty earth that was affected by Shaping. It's not the best material for construction of permanency. Hudson and Sons is rumored to have a Geomage in their employ and their specialization -might- allow for better earthworks but I'm not an expert ((and didn't ask)) and would look to our resident magi about it.
• Cranidyne might need to be dealt with eventually when the population starts growing again. It didn't take long for it to grow last time though. Thought about the possibility of a hunters' lodge to cull their numbers but we should expect them to eventually do the same, if only out of instinct.
• Would like to throw a + vote for Quill and Hanz to stay but if not, then reward them for their contribution.
• We probably should get some city guards
• Layout and infrastructure is going to be important and we should plan for future growth. Contingencies for Crani.
• Sayaki might have some uses but we need to be careful if we take them in. I'd like for us to discuss them and possible future criminal elements.

While background checking [Delver] finds, I pieced together the most up-to-date overview of Dunndirk. Basement will follow soon. These should be used to reference accommodations and renovations.

>>1880615
Help is always appreciated.

Given our limit is 10 people (children not included) and pre-construction housing is quite limited, we're going to need to renovate the mansion's housing quite a bit. Wayhouse and Blue's kitchen would be suitable expansions, especially if we can connect an overhang bridge between the two. We can also set the farmer's housing to be in the SW valley in order to have them the best protected. We're going to also want to spend money to fix the hole in the ground leading to the basement, as it remaining means easy access from the waterfall to the surface for any Sahaquin infiltrators.

>Ask Hudson and Sons if they are capable of constructing a [Boarding House], and if that will let us save space should we accept the [ForeRunners Guild]. (6 people is a whole lot of slots used up)
>How many 'Souls' does the construction company take up?

"Not that my opinion on the issue explicitly matters as I am neither a squad leader nor the leader of the company, but my assessment of the issue is as follows:"

"Hanz and Gretel helped fight off Dunndrik's invaders at personal risk to themselves. There should be no question about allowing them residence by that reasoning alone. Still, they're both capable combatants, and with the Cranidyne there and possible moblin or cult remnants about we will need people to protect the town while we are away."

"By similar reasoning, Quill should also be granted residence. She did not risk harm to herself in the previous battle like Hans or Gretel, but she nonetheless aided us. Much like a town requires guards, a town also benefits greatly from a watchman."

"I would seriously consider accepting the request to zone Hudson and Sons. They will make reconstruction efforts much faster, provide jobs to citizens that do not currently have work, and most importantly their 18 tile office will pay us a very tidy sum in taxes. I trust that a corporate enterprise such as theirs will be able to pay their taxes as well."

"Next, the construction company should cut the cost of the Wysterian Merchant's house from 4000z to 2000z. If we accept the Ex-Merchant caravan and grant them their 4x4 space to sell from, we can pay for the cost of renovating destroyed house to the north AND have two capable vendors in town for both ourselves and any travelers passing through. I suspect that merchants will also be able to pay their taxes."

"Everyone else I feel is on fairly even ground from this point. My personal picks would be the Retired performer, the Hachibana Farmer, the Avalonian Couple, and the Abalathian Blacksmith."

"And lastly, I am interested in the [ForeRunners] Guild. We lack adequate space for 6 people, given our limitation, but perhaps Hudson and Sons can construct a Boarding House for them? If that is true I would consider them an option as well."

"I am not sure how many people Hudson and Sons will bring as part of maintaining their office, however, or if they are self-sustaining and will not count towards our population. Should we be exceedingly lucky and the company will not count towards our population capacity, I would personally like the Hermit of the Tree to stay around as well."
>>
I say we should welcome the groups who can outright produce things. The blacksmith, the herbalist, the farmer, the merchants, the carpenters, and the frog family. We also need people who are willing to defend those who settle here. I'd prefer 2-4 people. Of course given the rather harsh limits on population we'll probably not be able to fit everyone I'd like to see living here.

I did some maths and I think we should accept applicants number 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 14, 16.
-1&7 are merchants which will revitalize our economy
-4,5,14 are veterans that could help us protect the town, they don't require a lot of space so that is good
-8 is a scholar, I think that is reason enough to admit them
-3,13,16 these ones have potential, they either have kids or can help us with random tasks

Posible other candidates
-2 Herbalist aren't the most useful shops, maybe if they can feed themselves they could go over the 10 pops limit
-6 they are too many, we have a limit of 10 residents, they are welcome to join our guild tho
-9 4000z is a big investment, I'd like to have an interview with them before accepting their offer
-10 I can't figure out how to make a 6 sided building with 20 tiles of floor space
-11 too many frogs, see number 6
-15 we could accept them

Beginning to think that the limit of 10 is by tickets and not by anything else. Otherwise we wouldn't be able to house more than a couple of options depending on the combination.

Not exactly sure how many people we can actually handle, but here are my sugguesstions:
-Hudson and Sons (50% disccount when bulding)->Ex Merchant (+2000z) -> Wysterian Merchant (-4000/2=-2000). This would leave us with 7 (depending on H&S) slots and a bunch of merchants that would probably be able to pay their taxes.
-BlackSmith (I would consider him quite useful for our melee guys), Farmer, Herbalist, Gretel (defense), Hanz (defense).
-The Hermit. He's a scholar.

Depending on how many slots H&S take, I would consider giving up on the Herbalist, Gretel and Hanz.

Rabbit usually only get to recite the first of these, but now is good chance to say welcome to Dunnkirk!

Refuges get gumbo for free.

Rabbit will pay for it if he has to.

Property with security.

If you are weak and fleeing from burning homes, that last one is tempting-true. And so you are welcome.

>>1880979
This is smart.

>>1880675
Rabbit also agrees.

If there was help last night - and there was - it saved our lives. And reward for that is welcome.

As for Sayaki, he is but a business-frog. In truth, he has done no wrong. He is merely scandalous business-person who tempts people . Rabbit disagrees with method and means, but am not sure it is a Crime, for what has he truely stolen?

Norr Hanz, Warrior Gretel and Quill Quagmire - those are Rabbit's certain picks. We owe them that much.

For the rest, is unsure. And wise-voices speak better if they offer opinion.

1. A blacksmith both usefull and full of entertaining bar-jokes! A frog approves.

2 & 3. We like heppa-grass products. These two seem a wise combination.

4 & 5 & 14. For standing in defense of our Dunndirk, residence should be a given.

6. A frog questions the wisdom of inviting an unknown guild into our home, but the name implies intriguing things...

7. Merchants are helpful, but will this one be taking his cart elsewhere soon? He seems more likely to be a temporary resident.

8. Scholar! Has knowledge and tricks and secrets!

9. Curiouser and curiouser. What is in his bag? And why does he want the house? And, why do we have to pay for it?

10. Science! Also, a frog has grown fond of Laborians. The room&cell norh of Yggdra's study would be ideal. 7sides, 21 tiles, and easy access to another great mind to discuss. Two, if we house the hermit down below.

11. Ah! Cute little tadpoles. We have a riverside spot for them, yes?

12. A Sayaki would be useful to have around. Immediatly, even. A frog would hire them to retrieve a Bardawulf. We feel shamed for not giving that more attention.

13. Entertainment and good deeds. Raising homeless nephews is commendable. But, do we have space for them?

15. A frog is unsure about the Hongri, perhaps a conversation is in order?

16. An asset couple, to be sure, with wide skillbase. Not a bad addition to our little town.

Hudson & Sons. You have no number. Does this mean you wish t establish a shop, but not a residence? Also, a Morde should consult with them, they may wish to purchase some shirtless statues currently rising from our fields~

Thoughts:
Hrmmmm This plan aaaaaalmost lacks proper paths. Or the paths go through people's spaces. Just remember that a road must connect to both exits and everyone has access to it. Places with a single road are troublesome to escape from in case of monster attacks. ON the other hand this place almost makes a suitable fortress from those outside ? Ohohohohohoh.

Some bit of advice:
A single boarding house may be able to house as many [medium] people as there are 2 x 2 rooms and two exits. These can also be built as multiple story buildings on the surface but the higher floor cannot exceed the base floor's size.

Norr Warrior Hans, Abalathain Warrior Gretel and Quill Quagmire - is three.

An Abalthian Blacksmith for armor and fearful weaponry.Renovate for forge - 400zny on stone

A Laborian Expatriot - for else can tell clever Harokem, smart Fika and cunning Lammergeier about the newest guns? 1000 for a Labratory, but all works well underground. Many things are easy to get, but our honorable Longcoats work a heavy burden with guns three winters out of date.
Also 6 sides - he needs roof, side, side, side, side, ceiling.
Is old-smart joke.

A Hermit of the Tree, who is welcome

A Wysterian Merchant who has a large backbag. Rabbit would let him in on resemblace alone, but he also buys a house - and we can reinforce the access to the innerkeep while rebuilding, shoring up the walls that we broke. 4000 in so doing.

A Retired Performer? This to Rabbit means Theater Van, and to Rabbit this means good tricks, cunning knowledge for fighting folk. 450 to renovate for this.

A Hachibana Herbalist and a Hachibana Farmer to work the fertile patchwork - for this gives us food and medicalities, and useful heppa grass for useful heppa potions. 100 for a Herbalist, 225 for a Farmer, and 10 fertile patches.

This is 10 souls, at 6495 znyin pricing at the maximal.

The Frog can have the pond below, at no property tax cost but they can help provide FISH and MONSTER PARTS.
Yes, Rabbit knows this is suddenly 11, not 10 - but with a Hachibana Farmer, Herbalist and Fish, can fit in people.

The Hongri Foreigner is welcome. He can help the Farmer, and we can build him a 2x2 shed (if they like). There should then be food.

We connect them with 81 tiles of road - like so:

This then is 7175 in total
18000-7175 and we have 10825 for ourselves.
Rabbit steals 800 to give them to the Avalonians for a House
Every Yggdran Root could get 317zny.

78 tiles is 780 in taxes, but Rabbit does not care overmuch.

---

Why not the ExMerchant? Offers too much money for simple access. Rabbit is not convinced.

Why not the Hudsons & Sons? We do not have the space, but we do have the money. Once we retake Highwall, they can have an office *there*, and they will have sapce for their office, and we will have space to build.

Why not the Avalonian Travellers? Rabbit would love to offer them a home, actually. But then they will have to tend the fields or hunt for their own food. If they can find the space, they are welcome, and construction we can help with for a simple 800zny (which Rabbit has stolen to give them, if they can fit in)

Why not the ForeRunners? Small town. For this we need a boarding house, so we need Highwall, so we need more Space.

Why not Saiki? He is welcome to take the river bit if he likes. But Rabbit thinks perhaps he would smuggle.

>>1881358
>>1881365
Stolen much from here, and Rabbit agrees - he would like CRANE ACCESS to the underground.
>>
>>1881715
Rabbit has three ulterior motives with this plan:

Evacuation road network should not have single failure point.

Avalonians can fight, and a Theater Van Performer can fight - and they are close to the gates.

Heppa grass in the middle is pretty! Also-also, a healer centrally means access to healing grass and potions, reachable by road in many ways.

. . . And we can plant a tree also in the fertile spot, for Fika! And climbing! And the farmer's children!
(And Rabbit. Will also climb the tree. A lot)

This is a draft for a boarding house on an upper floor of the manor, does it have enough exits? In an emegency, I suppose that the windows could be used as exits.

That first plan the inspector was referring to was also before we were told how roads and housing operates.

Also rubble, from excavation, and elavator transport.

Wanted to avoid having people underground for the most part. Dark, damp places with lingering magic-seepage and open entrance into Faewoods? That sounds like danger of the dying in the dark kind.

Your boarding house is a good idea. We could do it, then squeeze in some people around it in other places.

I still think the Cellar access shouldn't be blocked. Working with what you laid out, we can we skip the bridge, turning the merchant's 5x3 90 degrees, and swapping locations with the Herbalist? This would allow a 2 square space for Cellar access. If the bridge was used as a back door access, we can shift the shape of the pond and place one there? Otherwise, a set of stairs going down from 1 square south can work as well..

It- it's not me that wants to build there, it is the merchant! They want to restore the building that stood on top of the cellar, I am just suggesting that they share the building with the Herbalist.

If you will be wanting to use the cellar entrance, perhaps you should put that in their [Contract] as well?
>>
>>1881974
Hmm.. he says he wants to renovate the destroyed house but makes no mention of actual cellar access? It's a massive cellar and we're footing the bill for the reconstruction..

>Wysterian Merchant- A merchant travelling with a very large pack filled with peculiar concoctions wishes to renovate the destroyed house to the north... but we'd have to pay the repair fee of 4000 zny....

>The North house where the cellar used to be. Or north of that.

North of the cellar would go into Cranidyne territory I think..

A frog wants to bring up a proposal for quest reward dividends and financing the town's well-being simultaneously.

Adventurers get paid 8z each hour they are deployed in the field, with a +8z bonus for being active for an entire day. This results in the full day granting 200z to each adventurer in Yggdra's Roots.

This amount is then deducted from the party's earnings through bounties and quests fulfilled. Adventurers get their salary and the remainder is then funneled into the Guild Bank to fund town expansion, renovations, repairs, etc.

In summary, 8z/hr +full day bonus = 200z per adventurer. Between 29 adventurers that makes 5,800z handed off to Yggdra's Root members and after construction and housing costs leaves 4,755z in the Guild Bank for future use.

This frog believes this pay rate should work for now, and can easily be adjusted to suit future income in case of windfalls or shortages.

I have one objection, none of these involve even token way-shrines to the directional gods who provide their miracles and keep the group alive. At the very least we should place a way shrine at each edge of the main town, if we can't place a full shrine.
>>
>>1882162
Yes yes I know that we don't have any shrine keepers volunteering for residency, which is why I suggest the way shrines instead of a full shrine.
>>
>>1882162
Inspector:[Does he mean Cardinal Gods ?]
Wayhouse Maid:[Yes I believe so]
**The Inspector Clears his Throat**

Ah yes it's a typical custom for Shrines is to place 4 at the corners or one at the center of the Township. Or one in a location that Kami may behold with wonderment.

It should also be noted that this town's graveyard is south to the Fae Woods and soon, the former location of the Root.
>>
>>1881623
Could we get a fully cleared out map of the buildable areas? Both above and underground? The clutter and fog of war entirely removed so we can properly see?
>>
>>1882175
Understood, as long as they're appeased.
>>
>>1882178
>>1881579

There is no unbuildable area, just areas where construction will cost more. Read up for that one.
>>
>>1882183
You misunderstand my meaning. We only have maps that are filled with pictures and fog of war. I was hoping to get ones that were clearer. So we could more easily make decisions on where to place things that'll conform to existing structures.
>>
>>1882158
>200z isn't really enough to pay for books... or armor... or weapons... barely enough for ammo for a few folks.

I mean I'm cool with it, because I'm not one for money, I don't need a lot of it. But others might not be?
>>
>>1882216
It's an early system to work with. We might not always be getting this expansive of a windfall for each excursion, and it softens the impact of having to retreat by providing a financial safety net.

Also the more we store in the bank after maps the more interest will add in to the total, providing a small buffer to bolster our coffers.
>>
>>1882227
Ehn, if other folks go for it, I will too.
>>
>>1882230
There is an alternative which can be proposed, but is currently being defeated by Rabbitspaw and their construction plan:

>Even split between Town, Guild, and Adventurer dividends.
Take the final rewards (18kz) and cut it into thirds (6kz) to divide between each of the branches.
This would then result in 6,000 zenny alloted to the Town's well-being, the Guild's savings and utilities, and then 200 zenny to each adventurer.

However, with what our leader has proposed for construction we have nearly 8kz spent on the town alone, meaning the extra 2,000 zenny over budget gets drawn from the Guild and Adventurer's pockets. This leaves 5kz for each branch, and each adventurer gets 172z with some remainder.

This is the other option we can go with. It's much more annoying to deal with and has a much less reliable safety net.
>>
>>1882258

Do we actually need 6000 zenny sitting in the guild bank doing nothing?

Even as a safety net at this stage it seems incredibly excessive diverting a third of funds for a 'just in case' scenario and giving our people pennies in return. We are doing a very dangerous job, and you're telling us to accept a pittance and make it up with tips it seems to me.

I would propose 2000 zenny for the bank, with 2000z going back into the split funds for the adventurer pool.

That would give all party members approximately 275 to spend, a small amount but at least this assures at least one item for every member.

Alternatively we hit our leader with a rolled up newssheet until he makes some cuts to the initial town spending.
>>
>>1882258
>>1882708
I agree with Helga. Planning for the long term is nice, but in our line of work there is little long term to plan for. Zenny directly in the pockets of the adventurers will ensure more power, possibilities and safety for the entire party.
>>
>>1882258
I will only support putting 6000z in the Guild fund if we're buying a tank with this money.
>>
>>1882708
"If we were to accept the Construction Company's offer, that would cut our expenses from even Rabbit's proposal from 7175 down to 3588."

"...and if we revise the plan and accept both the construction company AND the ex-merchant, that puts our town expenses down to 1588z, whilst still building everything we need to and accepting a full town's worth of people."

"At this juncture I would implore everyone to consider the merits of the construction company, the ex-merchant, or both."

>>1882258
I also agree with Helga, for me 6000z in the bank seems too much unless we're actually aiming to do something with them, like buying the tank. I would support having some sort of safetiy net, but I would also consider that short time investment may be a better option than long time investment in the context of our job. Certain armor, book, recipe, skill, etc. can be the difference between life and death, or at least the difference between an easy situation or a hard situation.

Also, bear in mind that most "good" items (wands, books, armors, weapons, recipes, etc) have a price of >250z. 200z may be too little, specially if we take into account that some people have to buy ammo.I believe we should consider a smaller amount in the bank or remodeling Rabbit's plan for the town.

Just my two cents :^)

This is idea Rabbit likes. And the Boarding House thus expanded becomes useful.

>>1881974
>>1881958
We can stipulate that we must have access to the Knot Area at all Times. And that there will be a Guard watching it.

>>1882162
>>1882168
This is true. Rabbit will correct this flaw immediately. Wise words.
M-maybe it will bring Luka back.

>>1882158
Rabbit disagrees with this, slightly. Hard payment per hour is not Adventurer Work, for this is Commision Based on monsters fought, terrors ended and Quests Undertaken. Quest Rewards, Terrors, Bounty Posters already include sizable payouts, at much larger fractions than 8z/hour. Some will be faster, some will be shorter. Some will involve smaller squads.

Instead Rabbit proposes that 10% of all rewards gathered together by Yggdra's Root go into the town-fund. With income from taxation, this is easily enough.

>>1882258
The Guild Bank is the Town and the Town is the Guild Bank, but the Town and Guild Bank is Us.

It is not three branches, but one root of the same tree. Passive income sources go to the guild bank to pay for expenses, and donations are accepted. But adventurer's need kit and weapons and bombs and tools, and without them, they are nothing and they are dead. Anything not spent on construction is thus saved, and the remainder can be given out as monetary reward for hearty fighters. 6000 zny that gathers dust and an army without weapons does not a fighting force make, Rabbit thinks.

>>1882826
Like this, for instance, where clever cultural communicator coucillor wisely points out ways to reduce initial spending proposal of 7175 to 3588 - a net saving of 3587 (which we then put in a hole in the ground and use for later).

This is why Rabbit suggested a plan as he did, so we could improve it.

>>1882929
Rabbits thinks so. Thank you for your hard business planning work.

You are welcome for the consultation services, I accept payment in gumbo.

Please, all I've eaten in days is Heppa grass.

H-however, looking at your plans here, the roads that you propose underground do not work. You can't have a road going through the middle of a wayhouse and baths! it just isn't proper! I really think that something like this is better. Block off the river and the south tunnels should be a lot dryer.
>>
>>1883142
Aww. H-he can be hunted a little, but it's just that Rabbit does not want assasins' coming to kill Fleur become confused with assasin's coming to kill Mistery Hongri who would be confused with monsters coming to kill darling-little Runa.

It would be a great confusing assassin-monster mess. Best of luck!
>>
>>1883145
I would knock out that wall and add a bridge between the green and blue buildings so that they have an extra escape route. Or put doors in the south face. Remember, Every building should have 2 exits for safety reasons.

I believe the wetness in the south is due mostly to the runes by the manor stairs producing water.
>>
>>1883206
Yes, and you could continue the road north through the blue area and carve footholds into the rock for 'Sayaki' to use. The grey area has nothing there, I just marked it as a potential point of expansion.
>>
>>1883223
Something we might want to maintain, because they give us TWO benefits.

Firstly, runic water, is as far as I know, potable, so having those around as a permanent water source is a good idea.

Two, they flow out, meaning we can convert one of the outflow rooms into a sewage area for flowing out that stuff into the marshlands, which are nature's water purification areas (Seriously, marshlands/swamps are really good dumping grounds for human waste provided it's natural. The places are basically naturally occurring water filters, and tend to already be hard to build in/disease ridden, so it's not that big a deal unless you're using them as a good source as well)

>>1883240
I'd honestly say? Latrine dumping point. It flows right out into the marshes. Keep the runic water points. Have the road be hollowed out under it for fresh water to keep flowing through the overall structure so we still have a potable water source, make sure that black water only dumps into that one gray chamber.

Rabbit wants to keep the river and the damp and the wetness. Frog Children, see. Also frogs. And water in case of fire and for drinking.

Access to different parts of basement should remain possible, so walls impede moveement. The road is for easy travel and to reinforce walls.

A frog has a few notes and questions and objections.
1. A mayoral mansion is occupying space reserved for Signs. Protecting These Eggs is more important than mayor's sleepyplace.
2. Has Luka statues and Avdol statues and delicious Riceball statues. Gilded even! Where are the Jade Amphibian statues?
3. A boat should be made available to all, not just Hudsonsonson.

Yes. This is reasonables. And if we turn the Cellar into a Graveyard and New Business Place, we will need river access.

Rabbit was thinking we would have this as-is, for why would the Hudsons deny it? Later, we can expand harbor! But Hudsons require 18 tile office, and right now have 36. So! We simply adjust...

---
This then is Rabbit's final plan, adjusting.
---

Using double storied buildings, central open areas are preserved for childrens play and theater van performance (that is, violence).

Watchtowers provide sniper perches and warn against incoming, and can be used by jaegers. Shrine for succor. Food from fields of fertile heppa.

Fish + Hunting + Heppa Fertile Patches + Boarding House Expansion means there is room for everyone.
Yes, that is everyone. Even the Forerunners Guild, who will have rooms in the Boarding House.

---

The total cost of this is 4365 (original plan of 3025 + 1200 for towers + shrine + extra road + second story housing )

This is what we will do.
---

13665 is left in guild coffers.

Rabbit spends 1940 to buy
2x Dinner Bell 2xInstant Fire 2xRelay Flag.

This is for the 2 squads that will go to the meeting of the gods.
DRAGON is one of them. Fleur is to recieve 1x Bell, 1x Fire, 1xFlag for the For-All Bag.

Another PARTY is still needed.
Volunteer now.

There are 27 members of Yggdra's roots.

I find this layout sensible, though I don't quite understand how the crane is to be constructed or if it will have solid foundations.

Sayaki as well... I don't begrudge the unscrupulousness of his bargaining, and I certainly don't consider him out of place in a town reclaimed by dangerous people like ourselves, but he's a troublesome element in the mix of children and good businesses, is he not? Perhaps you can say more to reassure me.

Hmmm if you mean to mix it up with the Gods themselves, I would be happy if I and a perhaps some notable personalities come with.

Socializing in the noble quarter is quite an honor but at the same time could be a big game changer for many, especially when we've yet gotten the sponsorship of a [Divine] and until we do, entry into Yggdrasil isn't advisable or the hazards of the aether saturation could rend our spirits within.

For such an event, [Dragon] is a good choice for security however you'll likely want to assemble a team for casing candidates and representing Yggdra's Roots in the court. If Rabbit isn't up for it, I would suggest someone that can just as easily represent our cause without revealing =It=.

The Self Writing Book has it in inks that the event will likely rally all surviving participants of last night and impressing them into descending down the roots to pursue Niddhog's brood. And lastly, the person running the show is

High Warden Iksander Alexandre, a direct descendant of First Warden Isenhorn Alexandre II from which the Halidom of Alexandria is named... you know, back when man and Dragon were still at odds with each other ? So uh.. be nice.

Though, like many who delve closer to Yggdrasil, even kings and sons of emperors are considered a world away from their affairs at home. Some have even been writ out of lines of succession for staying rootbound too long.

With that said, finding a Deity that suits our mission is top priority !

With this in mind, what are our current 'candidates' towards this end Scholar?

It appears to me we have already constructed shrines to appeal to the [Kami] but what are your thoughts on the matter?

In days soon to come, World Tree will undergo a few structural changes. Chief of which is [Split Quest Operation] or SQO.

Under SQO, Squads will assign themselves Quests based on location and choose which days during the week to perform them. Most Outings under SQOs typically accept Parties as small as 1 squad and no bigger than 3. [16~ Total Players] this allows faster processing and higher acessibility for new and interested players.

Missions will run to the end of their assigned day. With extension rules that observe Fatigue Very Critically.

With the [conclusion] of all assigned parties a new SQO will begin, at the end of the week all squads will reconvene during Chronos to be reassigned to a new SQO.

[Benched] [Townbound] adventurers may be in loose circulation , able to transfer between fronts until they declare a deployment, To do so they must at least exist in an adjacent wayhouse, town, or city in order to Arrive [On Time], Otherwise they must declare a new location adjacent to their previous one EVERY 6 HOURS. The only exception to this Rule is during Aerias or Chronos when travelling is twice as effective.

Townbound actions can occur freely but for organization's sake may occuring during World Phase. Any manner of Town Interaction that was possible while in a town is already possible here however some special rules to take note of:
1. GM will not commit resources to any actions that require GM feedback , most transactions are automatic, and story events will trigger on their own and sometimes with the help of a query from the Field. RPing within defined limits is fine, but dont expect QMs to answer it with a response.
2. Though we are connected by ainsible it does not mean you can talk to a team in Hachibana while ordering another in the Bleed , only party leaders can do this. All others must relay calls through the Scholars without breaking the 1st Rule.
3. The Forall bag's range is One Scholar. That's because we're the ones keeping track of it. For this reason, Two Scholars may exchange items with each others' teams but not with those that are in reserves even if they are in Town. To ferry items to a different front, a courier or rider service would be needed. This is actually impossible to do with two teams that are fielded in different adventures because ...
4. One Map at a time ! That's right ! We are implementing this system so that we don't simulate two outings simultaneously.. All of Dunndirk's 3 zones is considered One Map for the purposes of measuring this. If it so happens that there are TWO parties using the same map then their adventure is consolidated and I will cri.
5. Every Outing gets one week or a Whole Thread to themselves !
6. Players that dont participate in an operation may instead spend that day fullfilling other requirements like gaining a new job license.

;tldr.
We're gonna rotate teams to tackle smaller quests.
We're gonna do this across the map in episodic format.

That's the idea. however a floating HardCap exists and will be observed [Any abuse to this system will immediately see its removal]. New Players can always wander in- but existing adventurers may need to enter as a party ? EIther way, dont expect to arrive until hour 12 or 6 on the map.

>Tower fund, 516z, gains 10 in interest

In celebration of landmark success, Tower's minimum contribution to the common fund is reduced to 50z for this payday.

The Tower fund's uses are these:
1. Lower the coordination required to make large purchases for common good.
2. Help cover members' shortfalls in vital purchases.
3. Absorb or provide loose change that wouldn't otherwise generate interest.

As I can learn a new skill now I was thinking of getting Kari instead of Kaesu. Especially as I now have a reliable way of healing at range. Theoretically I will be able to heal ~50hp in an emergency with Kyou Kai and then top myself with Kari over the next two turns.

That said Kaesu allows me to bring back the dead, though it is expensive. So I will learn that if Tower thinks it will be more helpful.

Rabbit was not aware you had specialized Tower Fund for mutual purchase purposes.

Totality of cost for 1x Relay Flag 1x Instant Fire 1x Dinner Bell comes to 940.

At 576 + 100 + 50 you are 214 short of repaying full expenses. Rabbit accepts payments in riceballs and zny.

As this 940 was 34 sourced from all of Yggdra's Roots on the assumption no one was setting up specialized accounts, Rabbit feels that there should be a Talk about Differing Accounts.

Rabbit would like to suggest that individual party funds is not a particularly good idea. It calcifies parties into specific sub-units with own ressources own leaders own traditions own rules own benefits.

This means allocating and moving people to different groups becomes consistently problematic, where it should be easy to set up working units for specific tasks.

For instance, sending Dragon + Tower to a Noble Meeting.

Rabbit actually does not think Basil, Jackie, Morat & Yngvild will have much to do at public meeting. Cannot distill people in center of town and should not be cursed there. Cannot burn it. Cannot not reshape i radically. And Fleur, Jenny, Hetros, Ryzo, Fusius, Lammergeier, Harokem is already strong fighters.

Security concerns can be handled, and what is needed then is not fighting but observations. Their talents are better elsewhere.

If the Party is nothing but the Party, and always locked to certain souls, it is not effective for all purposes.

Rabbit would like D'Algers, Fika, Mordenkainen to go - control, support, Runa.

Helga who can Sniff Lies.
Harokem who is not apt to be convinced by Gods
Perovskia who is Smart with Air
Jenny who has business,
Hetros & Ryozo who can Talk to Gods,
Lammergeier who has Eyes,
Fusius who is good Security,
Fleur who is good security

Someone else.

--

But this is because Rabbit's sees Parties as Working Groups with a Purpose.

If that is not the case, and we want to lock parties into being small units with seperate accounts and the same people, this works well too. But then Rabbit cannot in good consciences ask all of Yggdra's Root for donations to pay for party leader supplies.
>>
>>1886679
I don't think we should lock our parties, and I also think that you're overthinking things rabbit. Let each party run themselves how they like. If they are okay with contributing funds to both the Guild and Party funds, then that's their business is it not? Just as a Kingdom set's its own taxes in addition to those that a single town already sets. If the townsfolk doesn't like their town's taxes, they leave or choose a new mayor. Don't try to micromanage each party.
>>
>>1886679
( as the total cost of party leader supplies is 1940, and this is 71 per person that they would otherwise have in their grubby paws )

>>1886687
It is not micromanagement, it's a fear of over-reach.

Rabbit cannot allocate funds to party supplies if parties already allocate funds to party supplies. It is Immoral, capital I. Tower becomes double taxed - once by Rabbit, once by Tower Fund. If this does not make you Upset, you do not understand that Stealing Is A Crime. Perovskia puts in 100 to Tower Fund, but she has already put in 71 by way of Rabbit, so the total is 171. Ryozo gives 121. Harokem gives 121.

171 zny is 34 and one fifth of a RiceBall.
121 zny is 12 thumper rounds, or a Magic Book, or a Cantrip.

People need these things.

You forget that nice coated men handed Rabbit giant sack of 18000 zny for Town and Roots, and Rabbit allocated them as he best saw fit, ensuring all benefited.

*But first he took out money for large purchases for the common good*
>>
>>1886687
But of course if there is no concern, there is no concern.

Would just prefer not to be a tyrant by accident, is all.
>>
>>1886716
You're not a tyrant for having a universal slush fund for us all. It would be purely on Tower's own party leader, not you in this case.
>>
>>1886728
That said, it's not unwise for parties to have personal slush funds as well just in case, and if people leave they can request to withdraw some of the money, but these are all safety and security nets that just protect us against bad times. I would suggest however that any unspent funds go into the Llama bank of the party and guild leaders so that it can accrue interest, and that they track such things.
>>
>>1884142
Yestibles!

It is 25 to build a tile from foundation to roof.
It is 5 to build one tile of road.
If you build on Stone Foundation, it is 12 per tile.

There is not much space in Upper Dunnkirk, but you can look here for plan:>>1884219

A nice 2 story, 2x3x3 house in NE corner next to entrance gate will cost you 450.

A smaller 2x2x2 will cost you 200.

A tiny smart shop with nice counter - maybe 2x2? This is only 100 zny!

Morats Marvelous Merchandise maybe?

You are welcome-welcome to make a home!
>>
>>1876542

>Claim participation merit
>>
>>1886711
The Tower Fund is simply a method of accounting. It budgets for the the team's function, encourages frugality, simplifies discussion of expensive purchases, and consolidates loose change to maximize interest. The money is arranged differently than it is in other teams, but it was acquired no differently and taxed the same. As such, there is no real reason it would have influenced your decision to tax the Roots to pay for the Avalon supplies.

All obligation to pay has been satisfied by the Roots at large, taxed with their tacit approval as members of the Guild. The supplies still belong to the Guild, of course, and will be done with as the Guild wishes at mission's end.

>>1886679
I see your concerns. Your suggested parties I find sensible.

About parties settling, I see nothing yet that worries me, but I know to keep watch.
>>
>>1886679
Honestly Rabbit's paw, why not bring Hero? Or organize a delegation from yourself and other parties as you're the guild leader and bring the best minds, while Dragon plays security?

That seems to be the best option to my mind, we don't want to be too restricted to our parties, sometimes guild members will need to swap about.

I'd advise as balanced a party as possible for the delegation with those who are good negotiators and representatives of their class archetypes. Fighters at melee and ranged, casters both arcane and divine, and then one of the sneakier and more technical sorts.

Heralding the first of many updates, Class Sheets have been updated as well as patched.

The most critical of which are Brewlers who will no longer use [Hand Actions] but instead get a choice of two stances. This is mostly to pare off one powerplay or another.
- Expired License can now expand to School of Hard Knocks OR Redemption Quest.

> School of Hard Knocks rolls another d3 for ranks on the same expired class but also absorbs the entire docket into the Brewler Class as part of a self made style. They must be level 4 to unlock this. And when they do take it cannot take Redemption Quest.

> Redemption quest simply rejuvinates the ability to take ranks in that class again however they must be level 4 to unlock this. And when they do take it cannot take School of Hard Knocks.

The Brewler Level 4, Secret Menu can be accessed with any Named Wayhouse Master. Unfortunately Bruno is currently busy with construction efforts so you would have to seek him out later.

-
Feel free to roll back 1 insight of purchases with these new additions.

Jaeger Changes
Starting equipment is adjusted, as well as a more updated version of Monster Skill / Study as well as some Level 4 Abilities.

The Shrine Keep also gained lvl 4 Abilities.

Please review the sheets if anything stands out and ask questions if you're unsure how to handle progression. Errant should advice on that front.

We will now be making a nightly trip to Avalon where there is much supplies to get :0c

Notes from the QM:
It should be noted that most classes can be "Fully" levelled around 5+ at this stage of the game , the dangers and variety of missions increase. I would urge that players make decisive judgements going forward but at the end of the day realize that with one death one can start anew and almost always with better results. The Invasion of Dunndirk playtested many elements but the intent of each danger had been to simply act on their base programming, in the days going forward expect a human opponent. Or Perhaps a God :0c

My services... will net you 75 for a straight reading... 150 for a deep reading, and document notaries for a hidden premium. I wont be held liable if you end up getting run through with a sword if a nobleman contests your claim..

I see, just a straight reading then.. very well, please open this scroll.

Kail is bathed in a runic glow, patterns of the tree form a lattice in his veins then disappear, the frog then takes the burned sheet and turns it to an appropriate page. Then again... and again... and... again... and-

" It's common for war orphans to be given a nominal name " The frog continues. " It's likely that you hailed from the Valknyres in which case you were given a name like Bell. However that said you have a different match somewhere else, an /ancestor/ in fact who remains this day under the name Baldesion. An odd turn since it isn't a hereditary name but its likely one of their number retired to pursue a family llife. That too , happens.

" A Strongarm and a Fontaigne, it's odd but I dont recall them to be the type to be sending children to the scholomance. Ah but I digress, the old laws of strict households likely saw you troubled and sent you away. I won't pry because these readings have been odd as of late. For example, these people have been showing up as either descendants or ancestors... "

And between such results a deep reading places you in fertile range with the Galufs, Morganas, and the Hellsings. All. Strong. Names. How about an Abobo Letter of introduction ?
>>
>>1888594
" Hmmm A Milihart and something else. But they are distant relatives. Perhaps an illegitimate child ? The other line traces you towards the tree, a place beyond this world. Not unusual considering how the Miliharts are a family that has ever pursued profitable expeditions on a gamble and perhaps a military commission but nonetheless they pulled it off perhaps with some sacrifice and a bit of mismanagement of lives here and there.

Like your previous friends you are a Descendant. Perhaps its something to do with the Tree's size that days stretch like so, the Milliharts dont take kindly to those not raised in the Valknyres you see perhaps it is to protect them from their austere life ?

I do believe you just get /all/ of them.

Hrmrmgrmg... This one points to the Tree as Well. But in at least 3 points. A Jistin shows up in many worlds. How odd. They all tend to borrow genes from those respective worlds too. Perhaps meeting another one will unlock their [Familial Lore] in your blood ?

>Jistin filed under [Yggdrasil]
Now Jistin of Avalon... what do you have on the other side of the tree here... ah a Persimmon. Known for holding the highest average jobs of any person here. Part Time Persimmons or, Patty, or Pamella, or Pachi . Persimmons are also infamous for raising their children alone hence the proliferation of the last name.

Now let's see who this puts you with...
"Abobo, Indrie, Windry, Bikke .. ah that's a pirate crew, and Goemon, and Samsons "

Hmm... Listen.
Pachi works hard okay ? She served us tea for nearly 2 decades. She's looking out for everyone. She's sort of like our mom away from home.

Rabbit has a Name he wants you to trace and notarize, and inform the nobles off.

It is not his own. What Rabbit was before Rabbit is no longer. He left his other self behind in the dark of a prison cell, and the other soul in the copycat of a doppelganger, and replaced it with Luminas.

Maybe one day, Rabbit can return home.

But Rabbit will pay you 150zny to make Yggdra's Roots the True Official Noble Line Name, of Dunnkirk, of Us, and notarize and inform the nobles of Qrloon and Avalon and Abalath and far Kashir and all the counting houses of this.

Once, Rabbit was in a dark place, brough low by deeds done, a catspaw for other movers-and-shakers. Someone offered him a way out, and a riceball, and a Purpose, at only the cost of his own criminal life.

Rabbit named himself. For Luck. Will never be a catspaw again, so is fitting Name.

"Yours is a curious art, Hermit. At first glace it appears as though you merely trace the blood within an individual's veins and compare its qualities to those found in your catalogue in order to determine a closest match. There is another possible way, however. A colleague of mine once explained that the soul is nothing more than condensed aethers, but configured in such a fascinating way as to contain and impart such things as personality, memory, and even hereditary information. My own research into a tangentially related field corroborated these claims. Which leads me to wonder- do you truly just interpret what is already written? Or do you perhaps rewrite just enough of the source in order to fit the interpretation?"

"Ah, professional interest aside, I have another matter I wish to discuss. I've a number of lineages that I wish to ask about. I am sure many of these names will be meaningless to you, and that is fine; all I wish to learn is whether these family lines exist in this world, and if they do I wish to know where they reside. To be honest I have a number of other names I'd like for you to check, but alas I only know of their given names. I shall have to find other means of tracking them down, but for the time being I have an excess of time for once."

"Lastly, I'd like to have a deep reading of my own done. My family is one that could not possibly exist in this world, and even if it did the name would be rather meaningless. A family name appears to be quite a boon at the moment, however, so I shall borrow one of my own while I am here. It is possible this world has assigned me one already as part of configuring my person to its particular rules, but even if that were so, I'd certainly like to know what it is."

I only now made the connection between those latter two and their deific namesakes."

"Volga does not seem to exist within this world, which makes sense given what we knew-or know, really- about them and their arrival to the Floors. Avalon and Ignyll and many other parts seem to be intact, however, which means many more of our old friends are possibly out and about. I've a few ideas on how and where to find some of them, but they are not the most time efficient methods and we do have a township to take care of as well."

"Truth be told, I have not yet pieced together how we arrived here. That is a mystery that I intend to unravel eventually, my time within this land permitting. Where we were before that was a world that bore many of the same people and places but under drastically different circumstances, that may or may not have been the distant past of this land and yet may or may not be your world's future. My personal theory is that instead of past or future, we were merely inhabitants of one possibility for this word, and through some unknown process have arrived in a different possibility altogether. Trees are notorious for branching out with both boughs and roots both unless trimmed, after all. I've no real proof at this time, unfortunately, but that is a second mystery I wish to solve."

"I cannot presume to answer your questions for anyone else, but I can certainly answer them for myself. It would be rude not to after you performed a service for me. I indeed have a creator, as do all mortals and once-mortals and now-mortals and even most gods and other objects of worship. I would be very surprised if you've ever heard of them, though. As for a destroyer, I believe I've been destroyed an uncountable number of times, but as the course has already been set and the terms agreed upon by a certain someone, it is inevitable that I will arrive at my destination eventually no matter how many twists and turns are made along the journey to get there. That certain someone being not a warden or a creator, but more like a grandmaster whose set his successor upon a nigh impossible task in order to hold his position himself for as long as possible. I've yet to tire from the journey thus far, so I cannot say I dislike this current state of affairs."

Another one that [Dropped] from the Tree I see.
I dont assume to know a Moonsabre but these branches tell me that your blood has run ins with the
Miliharts and the Blades

> Blades- The Blade family etymology are travelling swordsmen that have done jobs for Predatorian counts on the regular. Usually , immediate families adopt variants of the name to distinguish themselves from other branches. Its not uncommon for them to meet relatives on the field as enemies and when they do open invitation to a Dance of Blades [duel]. Variant names are DuskBlade, DarkBlade, Brightblade, and even GrassSword or SunScythe
Perks: You may duel a family member on the field. Their branch family will offer you their weapon as your branch gains renown.
Cons: On random days you may be called to arms as someone’s blade. Denying this call decreases your renown. Alternatively a Tribute maybe paid instead.

Millahart - Pure Bred Valknyr wishing to find riches in the World Tree in order to improve their life at home.
Faith: Patron Saent Serpico.
Family Tradition: Millahart Fund - A Millahart character may deposit Zenny in their family’s bank while in town. The family will match all contributions made if the same character entered and left the previous outing. The Millahart character will gain 10% of their principal as income at the start of every town thread. Their successor is a named beneficiary who will continue to gain this income.
Family Foibles: Under the Family’s Thumb - The Millahart character may only withdraw money from their account upon the creation of a successor (from death or retirement).

> Other relatives include: All of the Valknyres.

Hmm... yes this OTHER book would do for Kerbolds and tribes from beyond the Root Range and the Outstretch...

Hazama - Kerbold tribe wandering fom the Outstretch Plains to either Avalon or the other side of the Root Range. Feudal Lords, and Hongri Government Officials typically find them as good warrior retainers however some find their unwillingness to commit Sepukku offensive.
Gods: Kami - Specifically Amaterasu.
The Ire of Betters - Nobles and Human Units aggro to Hazamas with little provocation especially when travelling alone. In towns incidents with little room for resolution occurs.
A Lasting Insult - A Hazama can challenge a Commander to a duel within sight range lest they flee in terror. Dying to a Hazama in this fashion even if their pursuer dies has been known to decrease Renown.

" Hmmm your blood may have also tied you to some relatives ere-side of the Tree as well.. "

Mohhomad - Often Practitioners that have dedicated themselves to their art to a spiritual level. The Songs of Vattra, a common staple of the Sidhe Bardsong is a common source of miraculous tales of from across worlds that have lead many to prominence or death.
Faith: Songs of Vattra / The Creator, Warden and Destroyer
Prominence or Death: Rolling a Crit Fail on a |Critical Moment| has lead to a Miraculous turnaround instead. As this may lead to victory, Renown can be gained from it after the tale is concluded.
A Brother from another Mother [or, a Sister from another Mister] - can be called up to help during split deployments with one Renown. The actor summoned has the same exact stats and equipment as you do save for a first name with rearranged syllables.

" I won't get into what other families the Mohommads have gotten together with... "

" . . . . Wait... didn't someone ask for this name before ? Ah, forget it "

Among the new wave of changes there's one last announcement I'd like to cover.

[Post Formatting]
Lately there has been a rather symptomatic mess of data every post. And with processing this is ok. In fact it makes my work easy however while Im not the only audience here I'd like to see if we can attempt Shorthand posts in the near future.

> Deployment Sheets should cover all the objects you are introducing to the field as well as important details. This would be the type of information Im looking for if I want to confirm the existence of gear or details about the skills you are using [as I do not remember 100% of the stuff I make]

Then when performing normal turn to turn actions It should be enough to include only this information in your posts:


>[For Mages stats like Mag Multipliers , Int, and and Casting gear are quite important but the rest can be linked] Alternatively, one may also list their Damage, Hit and Potencies in their attack posts. Those who don't can simply have theirs figured out but this adds to processing a bit.

These will be called [Visible Stats] because this is information what will need to be reflected on the sprite and currently displays what is affecting the game dynamically.
==============

This way when a person deploys, they'll have one big stat block to refer to, if there are changes to their items gear or stats it is acceptable to write up a new one [statistically this will happen less than having big stats per action phase.]

If youd rather keep to one deployment post to link to, then just list all changes on your visible

The day has updated. And soon we arrive in Avalon. Rabbit, if it isn't too much of a daunting task I'd like for you to coordinate with the other squads on which Jobs to tackle for the remainder of the week. This will be the first order of business for Yggdrasil Root's Headquarters.

> MidDay updates. Those who wish to make purchases in town may wait until Evening.

> Im back on the clock folks after these round of updates there will be an expected break for map making.

I bow in thanks for his words. My mind reaching back. The name Hazama was unfamiliar to me, but Mohhomad struck a chord with me, it was my mother's name and it was she who taught me my first Kata, wooden bokken swings,simple steps forward, forward, back, shift right, swing. Over and over again until I could do it in my sleep. She also taught me how to commune, to sing to my Blade and have her sing with me.

"I am Mohhomad Mizuno."

Luney was doing one thing, and it was panickly preparing the new watchtower so he could deploy from while they were at the village and most importantly keeping track of the new all bag doof gave hiim. Was a doozy, but first he needed to calm down for now and really get things ordered together. Perhaps now he could focus a bit on his swordsmanship, that calmed him down a bit when there wasnt time to grab a snooze or relax in the spa.

Mobolins are bad. Protecting vegetable patches are important. Rabbit agrees.
He would like your eyes in the High Ward, however.

But this should do.

Rabbit does not think Hetros & Ryozo should go to the same meeting, as they are the only LK's who can commune with Deceased Spirits.
Should someone fall where help is not near, it need not be their end - but only if you're not both talking to nobles.

So perhaps this then should suffice.
Have tried to ensure an even spread of capability, with some specialization of punch.

Should not be many large sightlines in a city, so if Tower brings the guns to the farms, hunting moblins is easy when you have superior firepower and Orcs are Aether Numb too - therefore bullets do better work against them. Against the mobbing moblin hordes, heavy armor is less effective.

In a closer city, at a noble meeting, more swords then will be useful.
If Rabbit loans Brother Lammergeier's eyes, all should be well.

>>1900137
Why are all Wulfs so eager to die, and so quick to deny the helping hand of friendship? Very well. Rabbit does not force anyone to do a thing they do not desire to do.

In the windy night, a loose window clapped in the cold halls of Carrie's room.
The young Mage winked awake. At the corner of her eye stretched a shadow lit against the light of the moon, childlike in shape, its hair billowed.

Carrie's hand reached into the pillows to find the cold wood of her dueling wand when the light scraped away the darkness on the approaching shadow, revealing Runa.

" Oh- gods you scared me girl w- what are you doing here ? "

Her bare feet were black with mud and something else. The blue light did not afford more description. Nor the time.

" Over here ! " Shouted a prefect. The door swung open connecting a trail of muddied foot steps to Carrie's Chambers.

" W- what seems to be the problem " Carrie demanded.

" An attack ! One of the teachers were bit by something , their blood's gone pale, none of the healers can figure it out "

"Carrie's eyes widened in surprise then she pointed out the window. That Way I think it went that way ! I thought it was strange my window was open ! " The prefects looked out and climbed out holding his hat. One of the others stayed, a Rivern girl, " I'd hate to ask this but might you not be able to aide us Carrie ? "

" Why cause I carry the Grendel name ? Out ! My moon's up anyhow so I can't help you with my magic "

The Rivern girl kept a stern face. "Tch be that way then don't expect us to come to your rescue if it lurked in a corner somewhere "

She leaves through the window like a fish jumping into a pond.

Then, with both doors and windows closed, Carrie lit the tip of her wand with a blue fire. Runa clung to the ceiling with such plasticity that even her hair looked to be painted on.

" Now, " Carrie gasped, "would you want anything to eat ?"

Runa processed the question and then nodded.

Bahamut [Firas] - Favors Aggression and Dominion over those that have wronged you. Formidable Fire Spells and Dragon Slaying techniques make Bahamut's worshippers into excellent Fighters. Bahamut has sided with the Gods during the Uprooting due to Niddhogg's inability to challenge the gods face to face. As such they have found favor with Branch Cities because of our fascinating bravery.

Berial [Abysmas] Gains and Favors from "devouring " spirits too long for the world. Excels at anti magick artes and drain abilities allow them to solo. The Dragon Berial cleanses the earth of impurities, often working alone and displaying a lack of greed for all things material but seeking only to strengthen their ability to pursue their purpose. Those who have died in service of Berial are promised a clean and absolute death and a return to the Tree's roots.

Wendigo [Iron] - A Warrior's Warrior, the Patron saent favors all melee weapons even great weapons and is capable of wielding one in each hand. The Warrior King also lead a life of battle against Dragons and surviving and was considered the third ally of King Arte to unify all of the kingdoms of men to fight in the Uprooting. Those who sought the strength to protect those around them followed in Wendigo The Kingmaker.

> All are Kami and Kami are one. Gods of nature and divinity, heaven and earth , land and sea create the interstice that create the current universe. To place your faith in one of such gods means being in balance with your [Spirit] and achieving peace through the [Cycle] a warrior faces death readily, as a doctor will save a life even if they waste it a minute after. These are the beginnnings of a road to wisdom and self discovery.

Hmph. It's an object of evil that make's men's greed stand out.

Here's what we'll do: I hide the [Black Pearl], somewhere near and safe. You arrange for a member of you family to come and examine the object. We'll examine the Pearl together. If the greed takes hold, I'll claim it back from the Helsing family with force. Don't worry, I wont kill anyone.

>I wander the city, taking in the sights and smells of people living their lives in peace. I do not envy them, but I do feel wistful. As I wander, stopping to buy a scroll of [Arrow Cut] I see it, through a window next to staves and wands. I approach and reverently ask about the blade, the Epee before me and of the one who sold it. What were [Sword Dancers] to use such a blade. I humm almost silently as I wait, seeking out the soul of the blade hoping to here it sing with me. Perhaps, should our mission turn out well I could buy it.

Looking at options to branch out for new skills, I see that the Lore Keepers Historic Rainment is similar to the Shrine Maidens Ceremonial Gi in style and function. The Lore Keepers don't seem to have their armor proficiency listed (I think, I see hats only), are they the same class of armor, and could I wear my Gi to cast Spirit Magic as a Lore Keeper?


It is possible that I am misunderstanding the proficiency system. And also possible that this question doesn't matter because Lorekeepers could be able to cast Spirit Magic as is.

Bringing back some more books would be nice as well.

1. True spells are straight forward with their intent and unless nothing weird occurs on the part of the enemy dont expect it to deviate.
2. Arrow is a ray type rune but it does not arc like ball would. It will also try to conserve as much energy as possible so it looks more like Fig. 1

Fig. 2 is the result of Ring Arrow.

Question 3 is either built on these examples or it can be manipulated by the Intent Clause of runic magic. If you are not familiar with it, multiple versions of the same spell may exist so long as it operates within the letter of Runic. For example, nothing stops you from summoning spikes or blocks from the ground but anything more complex would require a "shaped" spell expertise.

Block concerns itself with the availability of a terrain block. Arrow adds motive range to a spell, and ring expands its surface tension while its centre is hollow and yet a fleshy middle for imagination exists still.

I realize that you may have been learning magic by the book. So I decided to plague your mind with more curiosities so that you're not shocked by it later.

Ah so even the sword set your imagination off as well too huh ? If only you could have been there to see it cousin, her ears and tail twitched as she bent forward. Her voice went lower than a whisper to escape even /human/ ears.

" A sleekfoot woman draped in Travelling Clothes looked to be a performer of sorts. With Trepidation she sold her blade but bothered not to even haggle a higher price. Realizing my mistake it was not her that took the proceeds but the men that accompanied her with tattooes bearing semblance to an Aership crew. When I followed them into Cantrip Quay, they parted ways by boat after her Charge, about 10 winters in age was released back to her. The woman seemed like a ghost of her former self right then... "

Wanda says and then sips her tea. " Though I set the price for the blade rather high, it was bought nonetheless. To make up for it, I had thought to create her a new one, but I feel that her pride wont accept it until those [Land Pirates] are dealt with "

> Ah this Cantrip would be great for us Brewlers had we the magic compunctions for elementalism. And yet the end product leaves a little more to be desired but perhaps its due in most part to the inexperience of scholomance students in the ways of innebriation. What does it do ?

You can create any respectable body of water in a container into a potent swill that will even put a lacquer-er's nose back to their first day of work. This is due to one aspect of water aethers flipping a switch about what makes them water resulting in a liquid aether saturate that will taste like anyone's dull imagination for alqohol. Lacking such an expectation, it will smell like purified aethers which is a lot like burnt sugar.


Either way this [Elementalism] skill can be used by any magic class that can command the elements. Might you be a little dull in such an area a simple shard of the needed crystal will do but it will burn up in the process.

" Hmm " The frog thribs under it tongue, " If we're talking Land Pirates you're either speaking of the Fargulf Gang in the Highlands or the recent spate of Bandits that are plaguing the doomed farmlands of Hachibana. If it's Fargulf I would bid you bring more men , perhaps a flyer, their ship "walks" the hills of the highlands with those blasted cannons. Tearing even the strongest of Knight Shields. However against simple harpies they rely on their Sniper, Paz to pick them off.

As for the bandits. They were once indentured servants of the Landlords there but once they were abandoned to the Moblins as the lords made flight the few that remained and survived off the land have turned to banditry and claimed the far western fields for themselves. They've adopted Yggdra's Root's Tactics of reclamation with a flag made of bedsheets but they spent their first days of rule attacking Adventurers that the former owners sent... "

Indoubitably not. That's how you Learn. Later, we practice the patient art of trapsetting and death-making. Rabbit still has all his fingers, but Rabbits is a lucky mayor. This is why wearing full plate is a great-grand choice.

>>1903303
Rabbit makes a sly inference from the facts at hand - the moblins raid from the Highlands, but are forced there by the Bandits. If we can rescue Hachibana, the threat is resolved, and from there you may plan an expedition to the Highlands while Rabbit talks to Nobles about a Silver Airship Charter.

And with these two things aligned-parallel, maybe Mizuno might massacre a monstrous madman.

>>1896715
If we Travel Highwards, then perhaps Fika has some truth in their words that Family Names are a boon.

Rabbit clambered from a dying world, to fall into prison, to end in a windblown tree, and serve a shiny dragon along the way. Or maybe that was all an ill-concieved drunkards dream of glory? But if Rabbit is an almost sober mayor of an Abalathian town, then so it shall be.

Tell Rabbit of far Avalon, and Heroes, and who he might pretend to be for inspiration in a sometimes scared soul. Rabbit had Conviction in a Dragon once, almost surely true. If we meet one, and Rabbit has a Name, it may be so again.

Jernau,

We've confirmed your existence through our contacts and are surprised that someone from our family registry indeed exists. While we turn men like you away , we've noted your recent rise in adventuring and involvement in the eradication of two Terrors however minor.

About this Pearl. We've heard tales from seamen about a vaunted Black Pearl that had once belonged to a Lindlorean noble's mistress. However such a fine gift was given to her after his wife passed on from degenerative diseases or so records say. In truth the pearl has a power to extend the life of one beyond even a Rivern's Years and perhaps longer, and that the degenerative disease was simply a cover to hide the radical aging that resulted from its removal. Were we to explain more, this seductive power would sway your murderous thoughts but we have but one advice for you. Do not stare at it. For even glimpsing it will whisper its influence into your mind, sell it if you must if your safety is compromised. Or perhaps entrust it to us, we will analyze what we can of it safety willing. Barring that it will be locked away in our vaults amongst the many other Fell Objects that would do evil on the hearts of men.

Answer back if you would wish for further assurances, or make contact with our man on the ground if you wish to give it to him. He will be ready to recieve the object from you in High Ward and of course we will compensate you for your efforts.


For your Enlightenment, Harper Hellsing

> About Letters,
Unless they are addressed to you, it would be in poor spirit to read their contents. Although nothing stops you as a captive audience and there is a quiet agreement to never let it inflect into your interactions in character, there is a moral sword on the side of the recipient to then do with you what they will if it is discovered that you have gone through their personal effects.

Also, while brushing up on Subclassing, I came across: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive/1802772/#p1806785. It seems that stat-ups through Merits are per-class, not universal? I only ask because I've assumed the latter for so long.

"I just got a letter from "them", I guess it wasn't a normal Pearl after all, well now you know what it is. I'll let you decide what to do with it, if you wish so we could contact with a family representative in the [High Ward] I'm sure they will be more than capable to deal with it, or if you prefer you could keep the pearl for your own personal gains, Don't fear if the pearl's powers take over your consciousness I can promise you a swift death once the time comes either way you have till the 7th of "Abysmas" to make your mind, oh and don't stare at it too much bad things could happen"

"This seems like the right way, I'd be much more at rest if this dangerous item is in the hand of professionals, rather than a street vendor who deals in body parts. Tell him we'll hand over the pearl as soon as possible. I'll keep the pearl wrapped in cloth.
And please, ask them if they can contribute to our cause. This route is costing us quite a bit of money, even though it is the right one. Money we can use to fight our common enemies.

About Merits.
We determined that stat ups that cross classes is a better use of Merits due to rarity. This was around the time that we thought 10 floor dungeons would be possible in the game's time frame. So to make it official here, Merits may now be applied cross class.


The lvl 4 abilities does require one to be level 5 by the unfortunate metric that class level is determined by ranks rather than the rare Merit. [Merit used to contribute to level as well when it was class exclusive]

Hello lost wanderer, burnt clothes and all. Maybe time for a slight it of gumbo and some relaxing lack of violent-painful pillaging moblins?

You can catch you breath! And then very soon, those very moblins from which you fled the parties of TOWER and CASTLE will go to fight.

This Rabbit can tell you.
It is a book about Arcadia, the place sought by the Cultists- who shouted loudly for the Gate to take them there, and Krista, who sought its power. More than this, Rabbit does not know.

But he infers the facts:

It is high in the tree of Yggdrasil, and reaching it bestows power

An airship to get there would be convenient.

Take the Map, The Book and the Charter with you and come with Rabbit to the Bar. Not solely because Rabbit wants a drink to restrain his impending sobriety, but also because there we may pay a clever-smart informant for more words about these tools, and how we can leverage them at a Highward Meeting.

Ava Arcadia - Reading into this tome you will be exposed to the many wonders of the lost Kingdom Arcadia, and King Arte's wish to sever the tree as his people fled from the Dragons of Niddhog and the Mages under Maal in order to then wield the remains of the tree as a Sword to be wielded against their combined armies.

The first few chapters made note of its civil life which bore the foundations of modern society however further in are notes of governance that may have influenced early Branch Cities. Encoded in its notes however, were the 6 locations to visit in order to arrive at this fabled city. Ava Arcadia was written by 2 Generations of Swaynes and the third by a Serpico.

And yet it is expected, none of you were normal the moment you took back Dunndirk in a single week.

==Family Research==
Soon we will wander forth to fight and stand and work and die. Rabbits worries a little abou that last point, for moblins lead to burning villages and occassional despair.

To warn away the sting of Death, perhaps you may seek out a family of far flung familial faces? If you fall in batle (And Rabbit hopes you do not!) then your Successor may carry on the banner, in your shared name?

Rabbits feels this Honorable, and so will make the following statement:

****

If you wish to ask the Hermit of the Tree a question about your Family Line, the Dunnkirk Guild Bank will pay 75zny of the cost.
It will also pay the full 150, but then 75 of that will be a Loan that you must kindly pay back when you have the means.

In so doing, you may gain a boon from a family, the Hermit may prosper in the Local Economy, and all shall be well. If you die, a Successor can take up your name.

Can be fired by 1 operator
Has a range of Perception * 3 til Perception * 6 - For short-sighted Rabbit, this is a mere 12-24.

For keen eyed Grandmaster Artillerist Lammergeier it becomes fearsome 18-36.

Rabbitspaw would mount it on top of a rotating satue of Avdol, and have Mordenkainen shape the cannonballs into large fists that Yggdra's Roots could then fire at approaching Local Terrors, but chief financial advisor "Fire Brandy" tells Rabbit this is an "Awful idea tha will bring calamity to the local economy".

Still, if anyone finds the idea of a field artillery piece particularly invigorating, Rabbit feels he should make it clear we can work together to acquire one.

As Ryozo visited the shrine, they are greeted with a bark from a stoic Ama. As she approached with her 3 pups she drops a letter on the ground before him, encased in the Ishibashi seal.

" Ryozo,

Salutations, Shinkai Ryozo I have left this letter in the care of Ama and her family. I hope that it finds you in good health. Forgive me for skipping the rest of the pleasantries, but I must leave Avalon soon if I am to make it home before sunset. I have an important task for you. In my stead, please visit the Keeper here and ask to speak with the spirits of the witch sisters that they are protecting here. The spirits must be sent to rest but it is our duty as Shrine Keepers to ensure that their wishes are fulfilled beforehand. Something keeps Runa in this world that must be destroyed so that she too can go to heaven. I had theorised it to be the Knot but it may have been something else as well, lurking in that Tomb. The spirits may know if destroying the Knot has done the trick but I suspect that this is not the case. I will continue to offer the three my prayer, and the entirety of [Yggdra's Roots] of course, but I cannot go down into that Tomb myself, not anymore. Stay safe and may the blessings of the cardinal four watch over your travels - Ishibashi Luka

" Mordekainen,

I have come in [s]possession[/s] custody of Runa and I am taking that to mean that you are in town today. Otherwise, imagining Runa to having run all the way here from Dunndirk would imply many disturbing things. Ill fortune, I suppose, because on the same night that she had come a teacher in our halls had been assaulted, their wand-arm consumed and the injury irrecoverable from conventional aethers. As we speak, the bleeding was stopped by a [Laborian Medikit], but that arm is permanently gone. I do not mean to write this to you in malice but currently this same crime is being levelled against your charge. However, I feel there is more here than realized. For you see, when I awoke to discover Runa sneaking into my room, it was through the window, and the trail that our suspected monster left came through a door.

Going on this alone, I fear that Runa's safety will not be well in these halls. I will be waiting by Cantrip Quay tonight, if you can not show up I'll call in a favor with Bant's wayhouse. And you owe me Abalathian Gumbo.

Carrie Grendel

P.S. Since everyone at school already knew of that name I don't mind if you did.

Thank you, Mistery Hermit. You helped Rabbit find a tiny flickering self-spark that he thought fitfully gone in drink, darkness and despair. Rabbit is not worthy. But maybe some day. There is mobolins and Jackals and skeletons and harpies and stranger tidings still from burning farms.

But yes. Yes! Also Yggdra's Roots and Heroes and. . . Just a little Light.

" I may have misspoken because you got the Gumbo AND you've arrived...late "
Carrie frowns as she scoops a portion of the carefully carried bown in her hands. The mage is doubled over drinking water from the river as Runa dances to frog flute dance nearby.
" But I guess I won't ignore that you almost got me expelled. You yes you. I'm holding you responsible for what this girl is doing if you and your band doesn't keep her fed. My entire cookie jar and my food supplies for the fortnight wiped out just tonight. I should have taken Florian's offer for midianism whence I had the chance at least then I could have sustained on the supply of humours that the kitchen drains away. "

THe spoon swirled on the empty bowl and as she placed it next to the incapacitated mage.

" Right now that that's settled I used this time to study more of Runa while she was away from your view " She looked at the girl dancing around to the frog men clapping.
" For instance, hers is not a curse, we've looked in the wrong place. It's in her aether, her being, her blood as you put it. Birds fly, fish swim, insects gather, and gods exist for it is not theirs to question, but us humans have always had a special place in the universe as the ones who can write their own destiny yes ? Which is where this girl comes in, for you see we cannot even begin to discern her innate nature and perhaps we are asking the wrong questions, she eats enough for 10 people at least and perhaps if given the ability could consume more. She is Rootborne and probably from the deepest depths of yggdrasil's lost worlds you could fathom. And she's got the blood of a great one, a god in her, though its uncertain whose. For you see it's not enough for someone to be born from a god to become one, they must be realized either from their parentage or the people around her to be recognized. Sounds unusual right ? Well remember the last time we saw the Aesir descend from the Tree, no one had paid any mind to the baby that Freja was carrying but people thought it to be Odin's. It was important for her to carry it paradelike in that fashion, and soon it's possible that the baby can become someone great, attached to the destiny of their late father. "

" THat's the theory anyways, what isn't known and what is share a boundary of equal weight I feel. But now that I know this, it's impossible for Runa to go forward, because if she's weighed down by the ignominy of what I learned about Rootborn, then she will not surpass her destiny... so I have a proposition if you'd like to hear it "

She gets up and stretches.

" I want you to cast [Amnesia] on me, and have me forget you and Carrie's existence. That way, she can continue living a life as a normal child and not as a Rootborne god , enemy of Yggdrasil's branches. What say you ?
>>
>>1907177
"You're aware that 'tonight' is not exactly specific terminology, yes? I do apologize for Runa's behavior, though I was not aware she had slipped away in the first place. I've been carrying food with me this entire time for just such occasion. Perhaps rice balls are not to her liking? And please; not only is midianism incredibly dull, borrowed strength is simply the noose upon which great men and women are hanged. Just as you might exploit its strength your enemies will exploit its weakness, and damned are you if you forget that the power you wield is not truly your own."

"As for your teacher, I would assume they were attacked by some broodspawn of Nidhogg. Runa attracts them, and probably inadvertently led one into the school. Unfortunate, but I have to wonder how both she and it managed to get inside so easily."

"I am sorry to say, but your plan simply will not work. You've asserted that Runa bears the makings of a rootborn god, and that in order to truly become a god that one must have people that believe them to be one. There things being true, the first problem with your plan is that not only will you need to forget about Runa and her destiny, but I will also need to forget about Runa and her destiny as well. The second problem is that the thing that ate her name likely also knows what she is, as may the people who locked her up beneath Dunndirk should they still be alive. Humans are not the only observers in this universe. The third problem with your plan is that it is contingent on her destiny never being discovered by another person, and something so convenient happening for the entire duration of her mortal lifespan is highly improbable. The fourth problem with your plan is that it does not change Runa's fundamental nature as a rootborn god and more importantly a beacon for Nidhogg's brood, who will continue to come for her whether we know her destiny or not. Such a thing is a death sentence for her and everyone around her."

"I must be honest; if I were a professor of yours, I'd give you a failing grade for this assignment."

"Are you certain that nothing can be done? Because if you are absolutely certain, then the only option that remains feasible is to help her pass on to the afterlife where her two sisters wait for her. Her destiny will be avoided, and Nidhogg will no longer be able to reach her."
>>
>>1907223
// I know that Runa being one of the sisters is a long-standing belief, but I still don't think she fits their profile. She doesn't seem terribly dead, for starters.

" The test was not mines to take, but yours. You passed, friend." She smirked.
" Know that had you gone through with the plan it would have been a poor decision on your part and I would have stolen a god from you with a back-fired spell. " She throws away the card into the river to dissolve. A goldfish may have been hit by it, she cared not.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXllNPap39A

" Since you passed and I had decieved you then I'm convinced that you're determined enough to go through with what awaits you at the end. The girl has no name, but has it occured to you that she can find one ? I speak of course about the Hermit of the Tree, though he may speak plain about his methods, he hides more than what he knows. He can with some coaxing trace back the genealogies of gods of course it's not something he reveals to his clients but it's a piece of information he pockets for blackmail. Since the gods , especially the likes of Freja, Apollo, and even King Arte himself, rest his name has been known to fall for mortal appetites. But i'll not speak further on the subject, once we find one piece of the puzzle events will go in motion unstoppable even by us. If it turns out we show up in with an illegitmate goddess at someone's doorstep there's sure to be trouble to follow us and I don't just mean Niddhog. "

" So - would you be willing to go against the gods on this one if it comes down to it ? People like you can only go so far on something half baked like wanting to save someone weak. Basically I'm asking you to die. "

"Ah, right. Him. I suppose that he would work; I'd assumed Nighogg eating a name was a little more thorough and permanent, but I gather that was a faulty one."

"Truth be told, while I certainly acknowledge the concept of divinity and its place in the universe, I do not have much in the way of faith. Where I came from before, all of the gods were dead, and I saw such hailed heroes like Avdol bested by a well-placed rock to the head by one of my comrade scholars while a single knight of ours distracted him. Obviously this land is far, far different and the circumstances have changed considerably, but I have yet to witness the strength of the gods and therefore I have no metric with which to measure them. "

"Ah, you were there too, naturally, but I am unsure if disclosing your fate in that world will bring about something unsavory in this one. Pardon my indiscretious caution, but the rules in every land are different and I've yet to learn all of the ones here."

"That being said, there is no reason to assume from the outset that I will have to go against the gods. It is a possibility that may happen, but not one that necessarily will happen. Do not mistake me for doubting your wisdom on this matter, but I believe you've presented me with a false dichotomy."

"Still, should it come to pass and in the absence of any information as to how the circumstances have evolved between then and now, and how the information I have available has changed then I must say that yes, I would be willing to fight. And should I die, well, I'd intended to reside here for a while and learn more about this land but I cannot simply stay here forever. There are an infinite number of planes and realms and worlds to see, and it is my charge to know them all. That being said, I'd still like to do everything in my power to avoid that outcome prematurely."

"Besides, it's a fundamental law that an event that has occurred once will occur again. In the infinite realm of possibility it is certain that I would be back. Well, eventually, that is."

First Relation:

Galuf- Less a family and more a house dedicated to studying the World Tree to aide in the war against RootFallen and unlock the secrets of magic. Matoyas or Baldesions offer a similar benefit and tell a similar tale.
Faith: Patron Saent Swayne.
Succession Quest: Secrets of the Roots - Reach Level 8. Retire your character and choose an unlocked class. From now on, whenever a character is made with that class, they begin with 2 skills unlocked instead of 1.


2nd Relation: [Possibly a more biologicaly one]
Bell - Of the many war orphans taken up by a local monastery they get names like Bell, Candle, Mason, or Book to signify parts of a church. The abbots within have long witnessed the fall of their gods and therefore only practice their teachings in deed only. Many bells go on to live normal lives.
Perks:
Unbound - Gods have no power over you, yet their blessings come freely if permissed.

Please be careful.

Walking down this road leads to a game of instant bombardment all map range dial-a-mage, where constant shared magical access results in weirdness, rune networks, counter-hacking and a information-based magitech revolution that starts with constant all-map spell targetting point to point and ends with linked squads of soldiers with backline mages overwatching 'vitas ball' as they breach and clear.

You are taking a singular edge case and applying it as slim precedence in a way that circumvents many of the inherent limitations meant to control runic spells, and you're taking a spirit magic feature and applying it universally to a different magic system.

Doing this, keep in mind there is no reason:
A) the other side doesn't do the same
B) a magi scholar-hacker instant-gib nukes one person/group per turn
--B1) "but permission!"
--B2) "and? Scholar hack mages. They'd have a bypass spell, /or/ every armed unit in the world would be doing this already"
C) it turns the game into something radically different

I do not foresee this working out in the way you intend.

>>1910006
TO clarify Pages dont exist in a vacuum, actually they rely on a [Book World] to "provide" that vacuum through a leyline called a Golden Source or True Source. And such things can only constitute as Page when used with a " Cover" or a "Scroll" to provide the focus and stability needed to actuate mana use. Otherwise they tend to burn up like Wards do. Converting Runic pages to Wards for the purposes of Elementalism will likely require some sort of Spell Arte.

>>1910006
When it is implied that the enemy will play intelligently this becomes one of the points of concern you'll face. It's better to limit the range of actions with a certain meta before that becomes an open worry. But of course, it's not like the enemy you'll be facing have access to Lore Keepers .... right ?

We're now changing the name to ground based elemental "Runes" to "Arrays". Because Calling 5 different things runes is silly.

We're now calling the characters Lore Keepers write in their books Runes. And in the same token adding that elemental Runes do exist in their book and supply mana similar to what an array does.

The Student of Magic images will update to reflect this on the next thread.


>Permission: Allow others to use Elemental [Arrays] or dont allow anyone to use [Arrays] placed on the ground. By adding another Shape around the rune [this is doesnt cost an action to do]

RE: Permission incident.
Its been brought to my attention that the turn where an LK casted a vitas spell through an array that they did not own was misconstrued as an LK casting a vitas spell through a vitas book Rune that was not theirs. This interaction is actually false. There was an Array on the ground it was utilized in smart processing. The alternative was that it would be non-process which would have been the correct path to take.

Do not take this to mean that you can cast through someone else's book runes. This was never the case and would require additional skills to utilize beyond Fortress of Thought. In short it is an advance skill beyond the 5th level.
