[Let's roll with it. If we linger, I'd suggest only for acquiring more bug killing toys and healing potions. Shardivan is in motion and that is not a small effort.]

Shardivan is in motion and that is not a small effort.] [Bob are healing potions (fruits) an easily purchasable commodity in your game? I always thought in DS it was super hush hush and you had to know someone's third uncle twice removed to get those kinds of store sales. Or maybe my 1990's DM was just extra harsh on me?] |

I'm not huge on potion fruits being rampant. Since there's at least two in this game already, and one in my other game... it's less likely. Think on this. If you were in a world where elemental, psionic and templar healing was available...
Is having a healing tree as important as a silt breathing tree with fruit? Psionics boosting? Combat enhancing, etc...?

Haadan would also make known his business goals for Nibenay.1) Find Weapons cache
2) Find info on Agafari supply (likely a recurring transaction once supply necessities are known)
3) Find info on Bronze supply (seeking a recurring transaction)
4) Covertly revenge the Skysinger twins
5) Network1: Ready to discuss tactics into the "haunted abandoned" building in corner of Elven Market where weapons were mentioned. Banking on using my Urban Survival and Information Gathering. Can we add to goals: Ask our elf siblings of their NPC class and overall strengths? 2 and 3: Poke the nest of trade, stir up sleepy deadly Shom wasps. My contact Telb can be a good start. I will portion some decent bribe coin for him. 4: Yah, review Yiska and Hashke's tale. 5) Do you plan to network as a rival noble, announcing your house and pedigree? Just saying. Laakh will be entering Stone City in best disguise possible. Subterfuge is the local flavor. Ok, so yes, I am aware that the original plan was a simple weapons collection. However, I also am of the opinion that while here we should be setting up for our eventual return in the (very?) near future with Trained Kank (anywhere from ~20 to 50) to sell. We'll get a lot of silver from that transaction and it's a good idea to know who we're going to be best served going to in order to exchange it for Copper to trade in Balic (and craft into things as well) and lay groundwork for securing Agafari timbers which can be cut into barrels, bolts and limbs for crossbows (unless one of the other tree species from athas.org is better suited to their construction). I really like the idea of casting Transmute Kank to Copper here regularly (or at least attempting to). I think it will be a better bet in the long run than just a single grand exchange. Once a week (or maybe every other week), a whole bunch of Trained Kank (20-25) show up on one of the gates to hold what appears to be an impromptu "discount claim auction" undercutting the local market prices by a single silver. We're not seeking to make enemies, we're just looking to offload excess product quickly and we're "willing to go into the red on this transaction". I am in agreement that we should go in disguised. Announce nothing, maybe "clumsily" leave things implying contracts between Tsalaxa and Vordon (or whatever house Haadan would recognize as being in charge of Tyrian Iron). EDIT: When he wakes up, he attempts to exercise (think: tries a plank, probably fails terribly, maybe squeaks a few sets of 10 pushups in, maybe a few windsprints on the deck), though is obviously not in this habit yet. When finished (not too long after starting, long enough to have made the effort though), he'd practice hand-eye coordination by tossing and catching a piece of Tyrian Silver. |

[Then let's do this:
We drop in (EVERYONE IN DISGUISE) and attempt to get the cashe. If we can do it with little to no trouble nor templar alarms being raised,THEN we can switch gears into trader mode (still in disguise) and try to see who would want several scores of kanks and what their ask8ng prices would be. Then we port back to the ship. Also we need to contact the remaining ships crew every 20 minutes. If something big comes their way, they might need us immediately to help defend.]
Seeing the little dwarf start working out, HurK will join him, doing push ups, situps and yoga strength & concentration poses he's been taught by his master's over the years.

Not so fast. Some time early evening, perhaps an hour or so after dark, Laahk gets another feeling as if he's being watched. [-5 PSPs] Let's get a watch order set in the OOC. I missed Laahk's question earlier. His House Shom contact, Telb, works one of the Shom Emporiums in town... but he is known to work three different properties. One is a general public market. One deals in livestock. The other is for secondary evaluation of traded products. They're all between Nibenay's stone palace and the hot springs. Not exactly next to the Elven Market, which is in the SE quadrant of the City. darksunsouthtablelands.obsidianportal.com/characters/telb |
