Sounds fun

Thanks people, it's good to know ow that I'm not the only person who thinks stuff like books are a useful addition to the game.

Daily! :

@gibbx said in What music do people listen to when gaming:

I don't listen to any music whilst gaming. if I did it would definitely be the 80's. best decade ever.

Cough 60's cough

"Thanks" he said, handing his bag to Dot and Spot and winking at the pair.

"It's been a few years since I've been out this way. Last time I passed through we weren't exactly welcomed with open arms. Some of those farmsteaders don't take too kindly to our folk being on the roads,we should beware lingering in one place too long. A handful of disgruntled peasants may not look much, but their arrows sting."

He ran a paw through the scar along his right side, remembering the torches filling the night sky with burning embers and the hunters shooting arrows into the undergrowth where he had taken refuge.

"I hope we can pass in peace now. Anyway, at least this time I'm in good company." He roared with a grin. He noticed others were arriving in ones and twos. They'd be moving out soon.

"I'm going to see who else is about. Just shout if you need me."

With a final nod he clasped the Nheedra's preferred paw in a warrior's embrace, tapped Ixuo on the shoulder and headed off down the column.

It sure was good to see kin in a place like this.

Posting for toasting

Cronykil gave up haggling with the young street vendor, grumbled and begrudgingly paid her for the waterskin, cured boar meat and wheel of goats cheese tucked under one arm. After glancing around fervently, he relaxed as he spied his new companions. Good, they hadn't left without him. He tucked the provisions away in his makeshift bag, rearranged his bead covered sash to make himself presentable and ambled over to the wagons, nodding to the large Nheedra in greeting.

"A fine day for a long constitutional." He said, lifting a large paw to shade his eyes from the sun and looking back along the line of wagons, wagoneers and their teams. A stern looking woman in armour standing further down the column, made eye contact, unnerving him slightly. He grinned. She had to have a story or two to tell.

"How fare you, Glim?"

@waynestonchurchill wow, I didn't even know that was a thing!

At the moment it's mostly Lord Huron.

"That's a fine blade" Cronykil said, looking up from the sheaf of papers on the neighbouring table and rubbing his ink stained paws together. He wasn't large for his kind, but his ursine features and amber flecked eyes revealed a a creature with a deep curiosity for rare artefacts and knowledge.

"I'm Cronykil of the Salt-folk, from the coastline far east of here."

The brown bearkin rolled up his parchment and placed it in the bag on the bench beside him. His ink well and quill followed and he carefully pulled the drawstring to close the bag. It wasn't a pretty thing, a yellowing tangle of what appeared to be fisherman's nets, crudely tied into a facsimile of a pouch with a cracked leather thong as a drawstring.

He didn't have many other possessions, a dark green kilt, a pair of leather bracers and a leather belt with a coin pouch and large skinning dagger. A hemp sash draped over his left shoulder decorated with colourful beads that rattled as he stood and bowed. He looked like the savage he should be, but his eyes, there was knowledge there, an undeniable power.

Cronykil sat back down and scratched his ear, making the silver earring with its small yellow and red feather decorations dance in the candle light.

"As I said, that's a good sword. Perhaps you'd like to tell me who you've dispatched with it? I'm a writer you see. I'm looking for somebody with a story worth documenting. Are you such a person?"

@vortae thanks

Being able to play as goblins would be cool

Where are the notes about racial bonuses?

Beastmen for sure. Most likely a bear.

I've just sent a request

@muker thanks

@staticsprite I think it would be a really interesting feature. Players could share books and build libraries, write poems and ballads and all sorts.

For guilds, they could give newbies copies of their rules and history. There could be secret books for inner circle members and guild officers. Skill guides... The list is endless.

Hi everyone, I'm Cronykil and I'm hoping to play a scholar/historian/chronicler in game.

Will we be able to write books in this game? I've always wanted to play as a historian/scholar class and I think it would be great to have the ability to create stories and share them with other players.

We could write histories of individual players and their guilds, epics about difficult battles and quests etc.
