If we act without information we may inadvertently find ourselves to be co-conspirators in a plot to exploit the residents of this region. Obviously I do not know that this would be the case, but I also do not know that it wouldn't be, yes?

But it is clear that his claims about the owner of this establishment were falsehoods, and the others in this room are hardly regarding the two of them with warm smiles, yes? I believe that the barkeeper will speak to me once the rangers leave - it is at least worth staying to hear what he has to say before accepting the job." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negative_Null Posted February 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2021 Quote Ok, well I think we're all kind of done with the first scenes, unless Goat wants to get anything else out of Eben. So we'll time skip to the morning when the rangers are leaving if you don't respond by Sunday afternoon. @Chasmgoat 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quivil Posted April 8, 2021 Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 @Negative_Null Quote I'd like to join. I've played a lot of GURPS and only a bit of D&D and am currently making my sheet. Are there any prohibited races/classes here? (I know the GM I play GURPS with has some things prohibited (lycanthropy, necromancy, etc,) so I'd like to check on bans before I make my character) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
