Was messing with the downtime/crafting rules.
Hmm, so an apprentice costs 520gp. 5 are 2600gp.
If Imix puts in 5sp of work every day, and works weekdays only , he'd get his first apprentice at day 1456, and the last at (ignoring compound payoffs) day 7280. Basically 4 years each.
Obviously there'd be ways to speed that up.
I'll reacquaint myself with the downtime rules soon, but that is taking into account an average roll of 15 and making the capital, and then turning that capital into a team?
We'll look at ways to speed things up. In the GP game where we used downtime, the time to build buildings was pretty long as is, without taking into account the time to earn the capital.
One thing you all will be getting at some point is capital as treasure, so that will help out.
Ah, no. The standard 5sp for "untrained".
Current plan is to pick up two levels of "profession: teacher", then have Chukix aid. Sadly, he's terrible at wisdom.That'd give 1d20+5+2 sp per day. +2 for the apprentices themselves. +2 for special equipment. Avg 16.5 sp/day. 315 days to the first apprentice.
The apprentice then adds another +4 to training the others. 281 days. 212. 182. 160. Total 1150 days.
An actually talented teacher (say +2 wis, instead of -1) could do each kid 3sp/day faster. 267 days for the first kid, 146 for the last.
Of course, if he just bought capital then it'd be SO much faster, but in this case I'd sort of assume that was replacing a kid with someone who already had training.
Assuming a +0 wis, trained 1 rank teacher (+4), then it would take 547 days.
That's about 7.2 semesters.
That actually sounds about right.
Most teachers are probably better, but there's not many places with a 1:1 ratio.
I hadn't seen the creation of language story before this moment, that.. changes things. The implications are strangely chilling.
Especially given what we're fighting
Ugh. Don't get sick. Catching up now.
Going to wait for Rigel relaying what she knows before Oios clues everyone in on what he found on the morning of Gohzran 5 when the Excise starts travelling and before the noble boy scene.
Meetings all day for me. Good time to hold off for Rigel and Oios to catch everyone up on their findings. I'll check in at lunch.
Glad you're feeling better, Rigel.

Good! It worked!
Right, Oios' post up - and I've just discovered we've been relying on Imix(!?!) to do our Diplomacy; it's a wonder we're not all headed for the crocodile pits ;)
Remedying that now...
It could be worse, at least Imix talks to people.
Istiel's diplomacy uses a d6 dice with a strength modifier.

And very effective she is, too - but Rigel prefers the sort of punch that has fruit floating in it; it can be effective enough, in its own way...
And if Istiel wants to get anywhere with Suuha, she might at least consider trying the other sort of punch ;-)
Oh, I've got plans for Suuha...
You are Joss "kill em all & break their hearts" Whedon and I claim my £10.
Based on my observations, BP "has plans" for everything. WE SHALL SEE.
^^ Haha, yep. The plans are often poorly thought out, not written down, and far-away in execution, but I got 'em!

I hated when he'd do that, but I admit it is an effective narrative device...
FWIW.
Is Rigel intent on stopping Imix having the private conversation? Is this afterwards? He's real keen not to talk about some of these thing in front of her.
^^ I'd think not!
I think there's two ways to reconcile the two posts:
1) Rigel doesn't notice you're staying when the excise leaves, and then doubles back when she does realize it a few minutes down the road, interrupting you towards the end of your conversation with the Clavigers.
2) She's with you from the beginning, and we strike the parts that Imix wouldn't talk about from the record.
Sure. Good either way.
I wrote it so she comes in after he's said the bits he doesn't want to say in front of her - she's busy talking with Oios and then realises, with some alarm, that Mr Non-Charisma is trying to Do Diplomacy, and steps (tumbles) in.
Oios's player has no idea when to do his reveal! Probably when the nobles leave.
OK, Oios, you're up. Then I'll move us onto the night of Gozrahn 6.
*cracks knuckles*
I have a good feeling about Gozrah 6!
It won't be a good feeling for whomever gets monk'd of course.
Board meeting and docent training today. I'll get a post up this afternoon moving us along.
Don't worry, Istiel, d6 diplomacy isn't too far into the future...
Exxxxcellent.
"Corporation is the foundation of success." A simple saying, and nothing more.
Where does one find Paizo's rules for incorporation? I'm sure they're dreadfully complicated.

I'm sure it involves a d6 roll.

Ladies and gentlemen- The dangers of posting from your phone.
I love autocorrect errors. They often almost make perfect sense.* So much better than the errors that I do, which are simple editing errors and typos. Boring and sloppy.
*I'm pretty sure rules for incorporation are going to appear in Ultimate Campaign II.
I'll be busy with work for today and the next day. I'll try to get a post in but I can't guarantee anything.
Oios, Rigel, you two doing anything with Gozhran 6 evening, going to the Way Point or something else?
Yes, certainly doing something; trying to work out what that should be.
Oios feels a bit useless at the latest waypoint and won't have anything to do. Will put up a blurb about that sometime Monday.
OK, great - just checking in to see if I can move anything forward. I'll hold off for Rigel.
Done. Sorry for the delay.
No worries - I was just checking in to see if I could move us along or not. I'll get a post up today.
Sorry here too. Busier than expected.
Hey GM. Could you throw a quick page together about common Three People cuisine? Having a hard time remembering the difference between chicca and matte.
Sure thing, I'll get something up. Chicha is a fermented grain alcohol beverage high in potency and brewed throughout the kingdom. Matte is a kind of tea brewed from the leaves of the yerba matte tree. It is high in caffeine.
I'll think on what some regional delicacies would be and get a few more culinary items up in the next few days.
Hah, I thought Chica was the caffine one because I associated it with 'coffee'.
Just a note, because I've never out and out said it - in the case someone wanted to play a mounted character I was going to change things up - there are no stables in this society, because there's no mounts. There are coywolf pens, however, so the interaction will take place there.
How does that work? Aren't they just dog sized? If they're the size of those wolves we just saw, things are very different.

They're like large dogs - mastiff sized - but they look very similar to wolves. Riding dogs by PF stats. They're also highly respected, so they get large pens.
Don't judge me, I didn't put that much thought into it :)
@Drazan, no worries!
How does the timing work? When should Imix turn up outside?
I'm going to get you into the mix at the start of the next round (and Rigel too, if she's nosy and wants to see what's happening outside).
Oios up!
Sounds good. Will wait for my turn.
Hang on Rigel, don't think we're up yet...
Sorry I wasn't clear enough. Yes, Imix and Rigel can go now. Imix is up!
Sorry, I thought this was a WTF?!? turn for us.
I love Imix's ideas of what constitutes constructive help!
In 18. Wis 9. Cha 8. Genius intellect with no wisdom or understanding of humans to back it up. The scaleheart writeup also pretty much suggests they're instinctively LE, but Suriname are raised LN/LG.
I love Imix - when I manage to get into his headspace everything looks different.

Imix is like a swiss army knife that only contains a machete and a grenade launcher.
It's lovely!
