Was going to say that you were my nephew, that your parents had died, and left you without a trade. But then I figured finding a woman would be a pretty reasonable excuse to a guard to get into a town.

T'was a reasonably story, though the guard may have thought it curious that a fellow wearing a stout hide carapace, carrying a large axe, and be adorned with a big shiny belt of copper and brass clasps would have any interest in mud farming... but it got you in [img]images/smiley/smiley.png[/img]

Hey guys, we seem to be missing a couple of regular contributors lately so the game has slowed up some.

I am still keen, and I haven't heard otherwise, so I'm assuming for now that both Danhem and Harry are still interested. Tonneau has just joined the game too, so hopefully we'll see some more adventure happening shortly...

Been a bit busy with work--I'll get things rolling again tonight (ESD).

I'm on vacation, been traveling, just got back, relatives visiting for the next two weeks, then I'll be traveling again, my Mom has an operation scheduled on August 8th, and I'll be in pre-planning for school by August 18th. If I'm quiet, or my posts are short, for the next month it isn't because I'm not interesting and enjoying the game. I really am enjoying it very much!

Are we all ready to get a room and divide the loot (and XP!) from the first adventure?

The taverns you currently know of around town are;

• The Jolly Noose frequented by merchant Men, right off the market place,
• The Executioner's Axe frequented by Snorks, right off the market place,
• The Plow and Furrow frequented by farm Men, near the front gate.

Which one were we in to begin with? I say that one, whichever it is.

(I'm too lazy to look it up.)

The Jolly Noose was the tavern where it all began.

Gentlemen, let's move this into the closer of The Jolly Noose or the Plow and Furrow. I'm guessing that is The Jolly Noose.

We, not only need to divide the treasure, but also discuss how we are going to convert, secure and use it.

1. Does this town have a bank or secure storehouse?
2. Armor, weapons and magic shops?
3. Henchmen?
4. Payoffs to the powers that be, here in Ket? And just *who* are they?
5. Allies...we could use allies here in Ket!

We also need information which will probably cost money to obtain. One thing we do know is that our 'One Eyed Jack' story has already gotten to town and seeing as we *only* told our two employees that story...then they have turned already...and that the Snorks were behind the blockade on the road. Do the merchant's guild know what, at least, some of the Snorks are up to?

What, are we going to do about this? If we can't make Ket a safe base of operations for our explorations (and looting) then we're going to eventually end up hanging from a gibbet in the square, having our throats cut in our sleep, or simply being ambushed and overwhelmed by the Snork's minions.
