John



Builds house in region 9 from 10 logs.

Builds 3 lengths of palisade with 15 logs.

(Palisade rules: One length of palisade costs 5 logs (5 units of stone for stone walls). There can only be one palisade/wall per region. It protects all buildings within that region as long as it has at least as many lengths to it as there are buildings in the region. This region has 4 buildings in it and thus needs 4 lengths of palisade.)

Solvess



(To make a bed you need a log and carpentry tools. To get logs you need an axe. -4 axes are completely useless if you have no skill in woodcutting.)

Yes, buildings can be expanded after they are built. But to make a bedroom you need to build a bed, which requires 1 log and carpentry tools.

So we all have slept on the floor in our houses so far? We should change that soon.

Gerionar
"John, you are smith, so do some ironwork and leave the palisade to me! State your prize for a set of iron carpentry tools."

Repeat actions from yesterday: make ropes and leashed from the leather.
After that, build palisade, if I still can.

[mgb519]

Rade
Start replacing my stone tools, starting with the anvil, then the pickaxe.

[solvess]

solvess


I answer Gerionar's call and take anything he can give.
I will help him make anything he could give to me.
I will go to region 8 when Baynir is ready

[Arkbrik]

Start replacing my stone tools, starting with the anvil.

Remember the character name in bold above the actions! It's a small thing but helps me a lot in keeping track of stuff.

[Olothontor]

Baynir De'Carra, Footman


Actions:
* Assemble/Prepare carpentry tools [I'm not sure how many actions are involved here or what materials are necessary.]
* If one action is leftover, chop trees.
* If two actions are left, chop trees and move to Region 8.

Quests:
* Welcome Solvess to the crew.

[knolli]

Gerionar

Cancel previous orders.
Instead of making strings and leashes, I will make Solvess' shield and leather armor.
And I hand him the herbs and 5 logs.
"Maybe you'll need the wood. The money you get when the job is done."

[Ogel96]

Apparently I get to join in now. I'll try very hard to keep up.

Name: Cerulean Mage Geoffrey
Race: Human
Preferences: Unsure
HP: 10
Skills:
Magic(Illusions)[+3]
Librarian[+2]

Scribe[+1]
Magic(Healing Hand)[+2]

Geoffrey
Work at library
(I'm assuming work=money?)

[Arkbrik]

Illusions uses 1 skull.

Healing Hand uses 1 hand from an intelligent creature.

Here's your equipment and initial status:

Cerulean Mage Geoffrey
10/10 HP
0/5 XP
Region A
5 skulls, 5 goblin hands, iron writing tools, 5 parchments, 3 food rations, 30 gold coins.
Magic(Illusions)[+3]
Librarian[+2]
Historian[+2]
Scribe[+1]
Magic(Healing Hand)[+2]

Your first action must be to move from region A into an adjacent region (see the first post for a map). Begin each action post with your character's name in bold.

No library has been built yet. This game is entirely player-driven, and work only equals money if someone else is willing to pay you for it.

[Ogel96]

Thanks-Let me retry that.

Geoffrey
Move into region 5 (For some reason I cannot see the map) and make friendly with the locals (Other players)

*Edit* I begin looking at the remains of any dead creatures to analyze both their workings and potential uses, then write down any useful info I can gather from it

"Anyone have any tools to spare?"

[knolli]

Gerionar
"Good day, Master Scholar. Have you come to study this savage lands? My name is Gerionar and I am the most talkative person here, so you may think of me as the spokesman of our little community. You are welcome to become part of our new village here at the hill (region 9). It would be my honor to build a house for you here were you can do your paperwork on rainy days. As long as you share your discoveries and your talents with us, we shall be best friends. If you really want to waste your talents and do manual labor, maybe Rade has some tools to spare. But in my humble opinion, you should use your vast knowlage to study the flory and fauna of this place. We met some very strange creatures here."

PS: You have three actions per turn/day. You may want to use them.
