Got it. So I believe this means the ball would be in Lady Adriana's court to decide her second domain action?
And/or should I go ahead with the third domain action, which should distract Ghoere for at least for a while?
Lady Adriana should go with her second domain action first. And Medoere won the small war with the spider.
Will not get a post up tonight, I will post after shabbat ends as I don't have enough time before sundown tonight.
If I am caught up correctly, my second domain action contained building and we should be moving to 3rd domain action... if I am wrong please correct me.
No, you're not wrong. Make your third domain action.
What's next? Do we do another set of domain actions or do we do a character action? Obviously, Aglondier wants to go sailing, but if Lady Barad has other ideas...?
After the third round of Domain actions, you total up your RP. Next time, you can go sailing. If the lady has other ideas, its up to her.
If you want to go sailing, I am all for the character action of sailing. Only issue is the bit of a war we have going on right now.
Perhaps we should, therefore, spend the first domain round making diplomatic efforts and inquiring as to the state affairs in Ghoere? We can go sailing after that if all is well!
Sure, we can do that.
Sorry you two. Lead up to Pesach and a Hoocaust survivors event has made this week difficult for posting. I should have a post up tonight.
No worries!
No worries here.
Holocaust survivors talk went well. Thank you both for your patience, I will be back to normal posting tomorrow.

Whatever happened, it was terrible, but it got many Jews to return to Israel.
So... this whole time I have been making a serious mistake with oversight. Apparently, at the bottom of the page for your realm is a list of who has what and what levels are available in each of your provinces. I could not be building guilds this whole time, not without fighting a vicious trade war with the established guilds. I should have probably been ruling the law holdings this whole time instead, if you don't mind I will go back and adjust the law holdings instead as it had the same effect and then start fighting the guild wars from this point. I'm starting to think I should find the handbook for the old game and start reading through it when I get a chance.

Yeah, I asked if you wanted to start a trade war with your guild a while back. Good thing we have this cleared up. Trade Wars weren't covered, so we are going handle them as war moves.
Maybe this will keep Ghoere off your back for a while.
It looks like trade wars would be contest holding and rule holding actions.

Forgot about those. Thanks for reminding me.
Could the earlier research action, which was meant to prepare for this mission, have been used to research the Alter Winds spell and/or find or otherwise acquire one or more water breathing potions for Lady Adriana and a skeleton crew of sea-worthy guards?
Also, can we perform court actions before heading out? Acquiring more information could be useful...
You can perform court actions before heading out. Not sure that Ilien has a navy, but Roesone actually has a navy. The earlier research action has been used to research Alter Winds.
Due to Shavuot I will not be on till Monday night. Bot as needed.

Alright. Enjoy Pentecost.
I am in the midst of a move, so I won't be posting for a few days... I'll level up at get the ball rolling anew at the end of the week!
I'm still dealing with my move and some renovations... And I have no internet yet! Long story short, I am not yet back to my regular schedule, but it shouldn't be too long...
okay.
Are you ready to continue, Rogr?
Yup! I am back! I haven't had time yet to level up, but we can definitely proceed...
Glad to have you back.
Off to Greece tomorrow with the family for two weeks! I'll still be online, but likely not as often as usual... Bot if/when needed!
Also: I'm really enjoying the current scene! It has served to remind me that it's fine to move things forward, but this is, after all, a roleplaying game!
Slow clap.
Enjoy Greece!
I got back yesterday. Nice read, the interrogation. I'm not sure how you both want to proceed from this point...? Continue the conversation with the captain? Seg to a conversation between Barad and Aglondier? Make plans in character? Or ooc and then proceed?
I have been reminded the wedding we are going to has no wifi and terrible reception. I will be in this issue til next Wednesday. Bot as needed.
I am having to do a hard thing. The hardest thing to do as a gamer I think. I am having to cut the number of games I am in.
We recently had a tragic death befall the family, on top of an already expected loss. Add to that the youngest having to go back in for a surgery in a few weeks and I will not ha ve the time I need for all the games I am in.
Thank you all for the time we have spent together, and happy gaming.
Sure. I'll start recruitment for another player(s) to take your place. I'm glad you had fun.
See you 'round the block! My condolences, and all the best to you and your family...
Ok, Niall needs to ask Eltonj a bunch of domain Q's
1) What did he inherit, aside from the provinces and the law holdings?
a) Treasury (Gold Bars) b) Regency (Stored Points)
2) What about Cale and Cole Alwier? The original says they are 4th level 1/2 elven fighter/mages, and Lieutenants. The class is obviously going to change for PF1 rules. Are they inherited as LT's? If they aren't inherited as LT's, can they be recruited? They are rumoured to be the former Queen's children. Are they blooded? Do you want to stat them out (or should I)?
3)Has my investiture happened yet, or do I need to do that as part of Domain turn 1?
4) How friendly is the eastern Temple of Nesrie? Can I get them to do investitures?
5) How does vassalage work? Are Cale/Cole vassals? (note that the original holdings of aerenwe produce more regency than Queen Lilliene could have collected due to blood score). Can I convert/recruit them to be vassals?
Well, all good questions.
A1. High Mage Aelies' sources. You don't have a vast source network, but you control a pretty good chunk of sources in you're kingdom. You also inherit the loyalty of your people, although they all think you are going to be like your (grand?)mother(?). As an Arcanist, probably High Mage Aelies' apprentice, you gain Regency from your sources. So you should have 26 RP starting out. You have a treasury about 30 gb. That's from controlling your provinces.
A2. They can be your lieutenants. One of them is your Chancelor, and the other is your General. They can be blooded, but it's good that they are probably not. If I had access to my Complete Arcane books, I can stat them out for you as warmages.
A3. Investiture already happened. You were invested with both crown and source. High Mage Aelies has retired, along with the Queen.
A4. Pretty friendly. Yes, you can have them do investitures.
A5. Cale and Cole are already vassals, loyal vassals.
A6. The islands are haven for pirates and the Sea Drake. You can't tap them for Sources yet.
Bodyguards
2d6 + 5
Not sure where the table for bodyguard types is. I'd probably prefer to mix them anyways...
They would be fighters or paladins of Nesirie.

Can I have a rangers? They appear to be traditional to the Erebannien...
Proposal
1 ranger (1) Squad Leader https://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/npc-s/npcs-cr-0/novice-scout-half-elf-ran ger-1/
12 warrior (1) 6 Golden Plume Spearmen Equivalent, 6 Golden Plume Shieldmen equivalents
1 Pal (1) - Sworn personal guard, from the temple of Nesirie https://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/npc-s/npcs-cr-0/callous-rake-human-paladi n-1/
1 Adept (1) - Healer https://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/npc-s/npcs-cr-0/acolyte-human-adept-1/
1 Expert (1) - Personal Chef ! (Hedonistic Drawback)Assorted stats are placeholders for current use, up until I get time to personalize them...
That could work. I see no reason why you shouldn't have a ranger.
More questions.
Skills. There are skills (administrate,warcraft, gather information, lead, etc http://www.birthright.net/forums/showwiki.php?title=BRCS:Chapter_one_Skills ) on birthright.net for 3.5, that overlap with the PF 1 skill system: Profession: Soldier vs warcraft... Another is which of these qualify as background skills?
I don't know, I haven't looked at it or worked on it since no one has brought them up in play.
Can you buy expert tools for skills, eg. Administrate, Warcraft, Lead, ...
Not that I know of.
Ok, proposed builds for Cale and Cole Alweir.
HP roll: 3d6
Those work.
