3 days seems fine to me - I'll assume the DM isn't leading us astray.

Lets go find some bad guys!

providing I've read everything right we should be good to go

It appears that this currency system was ill advised lol.


1 Lead bead (bd) =1 Copper Piece (cp) 1/100 CP
1 Ceramic bit (bt) 1 Silver Piece (sp)1/10 CP
1 Ceramic Piece (Cp)=1 Gold Piece (gp) 1 CP
1 Silver Piece (sp)= 1 Platinum Piece (pp) 10 CP
1 Gold Piece (gp)= 100 CP

Essentially a Cp is equivalent to a gp. The cp (copper pieces) can be a bit confusing with the upper case Cp (ceramic pieces). So they're charging 8 gp per day basically. an excessive amount of gold.

it's just the templar background was the only background from what I recall that said GP instead of CP. I assumed it was a 'perk' for being under the God King's employ.

The world essentially runs on 'ceramic pieces' CP while the average person survives on ceramic bits (bt) Meaning the majority of people live on silvers / week like in a typical d&D universe economy.

If the Book you gave us was wrong or misprinted let me know and I'll edit my post. Otherwise. Klik started with effectively 1500 CP (in the 15 GP the book states) and will primarily just use to to benefit the group on the down low.

How will Proficiency in Survival factor into survival days?


If I understand, this world is different from the standard setting and so natural food may be harder to come by...


Will I be able to scrounge up edible roots, track animals for meat, etc and essentially not NEED to purchase days... That said of course, the purchased days will probably be of a better quality, and would probably last longer than say a freshly killed beast...

We can beat up that elvin party and take their food.


3 days sounds good

Sorry Kaelyn lol, It'll be 15 Cp not 1500 Cp, that's a huge fortune I must've mistyped it or copied it from somewhere that wasn't using my rules.

Hmm.. The price of survival days seems to be a bit much.. Lemme edit it from 5 Cp on average to 1 Cp on average. Commoners would be getting food or be trading labor for food. The four e dark sun setting recommended 5 Cp for one survival day but that seems crazy no matter how I look at it...

Post will reflect that. Normal price is 1 CP, they'll be charging 3 CP (so 3 gp basically) per survival day. If you could edit your post Kaelyn that would be good

@shield. You could potentially scrounge up food. You'll still have to make that wisdom survival check but there are obviously some areas that are defiled which will not have any food. Additionally the check will be rather difficult. Prolly a 15 on "Easier" land and a 20 on average territory like the one you'll be travelling. It's up to you whether you'd like to risk it

@Keeper, You could definitely do that xD

has been edited. let me knnow if it's now sufficient.

4e currency was pretty much video game esque. it was not uncommon for 4e parties to amass hundreds of thousands of gold.. so it doesnt surprise me the basic's seem higher.

okay sounds good! I didn't know that but thanks for letting me know

The suggestion to travel by night seems to make sense, but first a question for our GM. Is it typical to travel at night? What would people normally do?

Most people tend to travel through the day, make camp during night. Despite the heat of the desert, it's easier to travel by day since you can see everything, use the sun as a marker and stuff.

B) main reason imo, is that the desert gets cold during the night. Like freezing cold, -20ish degrees Celsius. It's up to you guys how you wanna travel though.

EDIT: Doc also only has two proficiencies. I think that might be from the background?

Choose two from history,medicine, persuasion

2nd EDIT: Apparently I forgot to add background proficiencies. Nomad, you'll get 2 from your background, athletics plus insight. Choose 2 from
Acrobatics, animal handling, history, intimidation, perception or survival.

, concerning Morrigu, I'm not sure if'she's trying to persuade or intimidate

insight, medicine, religion, perception stealth
Tools: Healers Kit
2 from class 2 from background stealth is racial

I'm more than fine leaving right away to a) not deal with the cold and b) allow a most timely update

I'll update those in a bit.

Update days might have to get shifted to monday nights? I won't shift it officially but if I don't post by sunday don't panic

I've been having IRL DnD on sunday nights instead of saturday nights lately (due to others schedules). Regardless I'll try to update sunday nights!

Additionally: from now on if everyone has posted, then I'll pump out another post instead of waiting till sunday.

Morrígu was trying to use being drow to get a bit of a discount. Or entertain herself. I'll post her reaction tomorrow.
