Cold Ambition - OOC

Alright morons, you're penguin farmers. Enjoy!

YAAAY

I mean. I made a character almanac and an experience log. But, uh, if you guys want to go a lot more freeform ridiculous, I'm fine with that, too.

Right, as discussed with John yesterday, your farm has a stockpile of 303 gold pieces, and 65 penguins. You even have a little dinghy boat all to yourselves, as well as a couple of draft horses and a wagon. Said horses are not adequate mounts, however, and are merely beasts of burden for hauling said wagon around.

... Go nuts.

Oh, yeah. Stat rolls!

Jamros - 15, 12, 13, 14, 13, 8

Dook - 11, 11, 17, 15, 10, 12

Tolr'ax - 9, 10, 15, 18, 13, 15

Finally got my character up. Let me know if I missed anything.

Oh boy, this is gunna be so much fun!

Matt, can you make a map of the island for us? To know where all the kewl places are in relation to our lil farm.

You do not have a farmhand. You can hire one. But you do not currently have one. It's just you three stooges alone on the farm.

Okey dokey

Here ya go.

I'm enjoying the banter. If you need me directly, tag me with a simple [DM].

Momentum is going great! Extremely enjoyable!

Alright chappos, it's taken me most of the day off and on for the village map.

It's been busy, so maybe I missed something. I don't know. Work comes first.

Also... ignore that weird grey tower-y thing just underneath the 'Pegrenfyfe' label.

I love that you guys are all paranoid about being in town, needing to murder someone "just in case."

Im a former street urchin, sir. I know the dangers of the city. I used to rob peeps of their coin and shit.

Also, is the Tradecourt the market place? the bazaar?

The Tradecourt is indeed the business district. Basically all sorts of shops, wares, and services.

I'm going to have to come up with something for Caelbir long-term. He's awesome.

I love it when characters write themselves.

I have no control. It's kind of sad and terrifyingly awesome.

Fixed your little table of Penguin products.
It is now your rubric.
Your penguins are 30-40 pounds, and roughly 2-3 feet tall.

Just had a breakthrough idea.
And Caelbir just got way more fun.

A little background on Seykor.

Long story short, they were sort of a sea-faring Roman Empire type. Large island nation, became leading power in the Northern Ocean and went a'conquering throughout the area, suppressing the locals (vast majority are Humans), and generally ruling like a bunch of asshats. They were haughty and prideful and didn't take well to disobedience of any sort - which is why when, legend has it, the island was swallowed by the ocean - the various lands under their rule were veritably purged of Elves.

It's been a couple millennia, but folks still remember them with no little disquiet, and there's even still a little fear that the Dawn Elves will return. This is why the High Elves - arguably their direct heirs - are disfavored in the Northern Ocean realms. There are a couple of Elf Kingdoms down on the mainland, remnants of the old Seykor Empire, but they are not really in a position to dictate policy too far beyond their borders, being flanked by numerous human kingdoms, and whatnot.

You fellas are at the WESTern end of the Northern Ocean, and Seykor was at the extreme EASTern end, just before you hit the Dawn Sea. And, well, I suppose Seykor itself being gone makes where it used to be the Dawn Sea rather than the Northern Ocean. But whatever. No one goes there. Some nasty magical maelstrom keeps folks well away - a legacy to the downfall of Seykor and their magical hedonism.

Zorra and Bryan clearly dont like authority figures

To Bryan they are the worst, that's what I've decided with his character. The idea that anybody can look down on another, especially in a political position is dumb. Dumb dumb dumb.
