Ok, I've found the game and requested to join.
For those of you trying to find it on rpol, make sure you are unchecking the "Only active games requesting players" on the front page search screen. Then do a DM Search for "Kuje" and you'll find the game. |

Well, think you're there now but I'm still not sure if I'm doing this correctly. I have all three of you showing up in my The Cast button, as well as character sheets.....
And Ruul, no worries but that bites. :(

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

I think I added the characters. Did you do a search for me as Hoondatha said?
Bare with me, I never used this is a DM. Usually that's why I stick to email. :)

Here's a link to the game: http://rpol.net/game.cgi?gi=45070
Rpol takes some getting used to. To access your character information, click on the Character Details link in the upper left corner of the window. For the moment, I can update the character description, which is the text and picture that other players see if they click on your name in the cast menu. I can't, however, update the character sheet, which should appear directly below the Character Description. Kuje may have to toggle something on his end for that. |

So can you post at least? :)
And I think I added everyone's char sheets now.... It looks like only DM's can do that.

Sent you an updated and "finished" character sheet.
I have only one question about Derlusk, that I can't find an answer for:
How does the city feel about Mercenaries?
Say a band of about 50+ mercenaries came to the city, how would they be able to interact with the public? Would they be allowed in the city if not employed by them?
How about if they are Calishite men, heavily armed?
EDIT:
I should note that the men wouldn't come individually...but as one armed band. How would such a group be viewed? Chased off? Watched very closely?
I have no idea... |

Not really sure how to answer this either. I'd prob say with the way the Kingdoms shift, etc, that they would be watched and told to camp outside of the city.

Re: mercenaries in Derlusk... I'd expect that what Kuje says is largely the case.
Let's remember, also, that Derlusk is a very wealthy realm, so members of the Watch likely do keep a very close eye on just about every suspicious type -- including some less-than-law-abiding mercenaries. I wouldn't think they're given too much free-reign in the city, nor would the Watch be too far from monitoring where they are and what they're doing in town.
Ultimately, given that Derlusk has no actual city-walls, I would think the Watch would want any mercenary encampments close by to their watchtowers -- if only to keep the mercenaries in-line, and to remind them that they are being watched. |

You can also type it up in a text file and PM it that way. That's what I did.
btw, Kuje, could we get edit rights to our character sheets, please? |

I tried to figure out how to do that.... it looked to me that it was a DM only option, not allowed by players.....
Edit: Think I maybe set it so it's possible? :)

Are we allowed to make our own threads?
For example: I wanted to look around town to find out if anyone was in the market for a band of mercenaries (Gather Information +7).
Do I do that in a PM to you, or do I start my own thread?
If I DO start a new thread...how in the nine hells do I do that? |

I don't think players can create threads; I think only GM's and moderators can do that.
That said, I'd like to move that we have as much as possible be "openly" posted, in the general thread. Until we manage to meet up we're going to be posting solo anyway, and I enjoy watching what's happening with the other characters. PM for stuff that's really private, of course, but I'd really prefer if most stuff was open to all. We're all mature role-players, we can keep separate a little bit of in character vs out of character knowledge. |

I planned on posting replies tomorrow or by Friday at the latest. My plan was to write up a post, or maybe more then one, expanding on the actions that you all just posted.
I agree with Hoondatha, I tend to keep only private replies as private but most of the time, most actions are public. At least that's how I did it in my email games, unless it's a plot that's tied in with private stuff from backgrounds.
So yea, give me a day or two to work up a reply to what you all posted. :)
But he's also right, on that site, only mods or DM's can make new threads, which is a bit of a pain. :( |
