Hey!
I don’t think you’re crazy, but I am worried. These IPs have been owned by very sophisticated companies for decades, and they’ve already had every opportunity to extract significant value from them.
It’s hard for me to imagine a materially better monetization path going forward without a very clear and realistic business model.
In the end, everything depends on the price — if they’re selling for a symbolic amount, that’s a different discussion. But if real money is involved, there needs to be a concrete plan that explains how future earnings justify the purchase cost.
Otherwise, it feels like paying for nostalgia rather than cash flow. I’d really want to understand what the business actually looks like post-acquisition. Without that, I’d be genuinely concerned.

The spellctaft check to identify reveals the activation as well so FizFiz should just invent an activation? And usually a shield ring has no uses per da, but is just active all the time. What the CL per activation GM?

Usgar nods at Fizfiz and shrugs after Escher's comment.
"Well, good that you are magic users. Hmmm ... as I cannot use a shield ... I grip my weapon with two hands, this could come handy." he says.
"Are you fine with me keeping it?" he asks you all.

Usgar continues to search the area to see if there is anything of note and after a while, he stops as he believes that there is nothing to be found.
"Come on everyone. I do not think that this fire creature is dangerous and we should move on. Nothing here!"

Usgar seems apologetic.
”Ahh Fizfiz!! Of course you’re not a coward… you dared to … well, and I ran … no, I meant this fire thing!! It’s afraid of us maybe?!“ he says while he’s continuing to search.

Usgar turns around and shrugs.
"Maybe it is a coward! Coward! FizFiz is also not afraid! So let us move on."
Usgar returns to the room and carefully circumvents the fire being to check the room for any clues or items.

“Escher. You are still standing firm, I see. You always looked like you were carved from stone, but I guess it suits you. I could’ve used that attitude of yours when the world went mad!“
He then looks at the goblin that Usgar does not know.
“I tried to get back to you all again … to find you all … but every road led to the Mournland. And… I wasn’t ready to face it. What are you all doing here?! What is this place?!”
He shows you all the blue charm key.
“I have this here!“ he shows everyone.
@GM: Does Usgar know anything about the key or this area?
And is there a map?

He looks back at the group, and scans each face in turn.
“Lia!” he nods respectfully toward the elf.
“You look the same. Still calm while the world burns, eh? I’d say it’s good to see you, but it feels strange … like I’ve dreamed all this before.”
He rubs his temples and grunts in frustration.
“My mind … it’s like someone tore out pages of my life and left only ashes. When the others found me, I couldn’t even remember my own name. The shamans said the magic that hit me twisted my blood …made it wake up. That’s when the rage started. And the… rest?! I’m here.”

Usgar stands still as the group appears.
His hulking, tusked figure with boar-like features has weary eyes that show confusion and recognition. His gaze falls on Karsh’e.
“Karsh’e?” he rumbles, and there’s both disbelief and relief in his tone.
“By the moons, it is you! I thought … I thought maybe the Mourning had taken you all too … or me.”
He steps forward, and he tries to clasp Karsh’e’s forearm in a warrior’s greeting.
“I… I don’t even know how long it’s been. Oh, maybe a lifetime. When I came to, I was alone. Everything was gone. The land itself was… wrong.”
He glances down, and his eyes turn dark.
“The mist or the sound … it burned through my head. I tried to remember who I was, where I was, but there was nothing. Just blood in my mouth.“

You go down, into the belly of the mine. And end up in a place that seemingly made of stone. The whole place is quarried out of stone by magic. You find Usgar there, waiting for you.
Suddenly, a massive gorebrute shifter, that clearly has boar-like features, appears.
His skin is covered with black-grey-pink fur and he has two boar tusks!
It is clear that the more bestial aspects of his animalistic ancestors dominate his appearance as his feet resemble hooves and his hands are rather claws.
The shifter is wearing a breastplate, has a morningstar at his side, and some other weapons on his back.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
Looking forward to playing with you all!

Hello, so I leveled up to 4th with starting gold for level 4 as I saw in the recruitment thread that this was the last guideline for those starting at level 3.
I am just not sure how hitpoints are calculated for level 2 to 3. Is that rolled or a fixed amount based on the dice?

Thanks a lot for the quick and positive response, GM.
I have read through the gameplay a little, but trust in you and the players judgment to decide what method and reasoning would be best to join. Also the level you wish me to enter with and any other mechanics I would leave to you so that I can adjust the character sheet accordingly.
Thanks again!!
You're welcome. Level up level 4. Would you like to be encountered down below? Otherwise, we'd have to wait until the end.
Thanks!
Of course, I can level up to 4th level.
Down below sounds great. Any way that is most convenient for you and makes sense to the story.
See a copy of the character background here in case that makes things easier for you to decide regarding his placement.
BACKGROUND :
Usgar lived in the Eldeen Reaches and was part of a small shifter community of Gorebrutes, those shifters which are loud and aggressive even for their kind. These shifters even are more likely to threaten violence than most other shifter individuals … maybe that is because of their connection to the Wereboars of the past.
During the war no side was left untouched and thus Usgar was forced to leave his village with a band of other shifters to fight as mercenaries in Cyre! Usgar was on a mission in the north of Cyre, exactly where today the Mournland touches against the Cyre River coming off of Scions Sound when the mourning hit!! Nobody knows what exactly happened to Usgar but he was gone for almost two weeks before he was found by fellow shifters that helped him return to his home village.
The amnesia that Usgar suffered from the magical force that hit him, gave Usgar the powers associated with his arcane bloodline and everyone also saw the extraordinary rage that flowed through him. All the uncertainty forced Usgar to eventually leave his home only months after he arrived in the Eldeen Reaches because he had to escape the unbearable environment where everyone believed to know Usgar although he did not know himself anymore.
Usgar still feels an anger inside of him because the loss of his memories and that is sometimes hard to control but that is also paired with an uncontrollable lust to travel and seek something beyond his reach. But Usgar also was clearly advised that beyond his community he has to control himself because the past crusade of the silver flame makes it especially important for him to not constantly escalate situations so that that those that are still feeling uneasy among shifters don’t continue the prosecution of his race instead of chasing real lycanthropes.
Although he has no clue about religion, something inside of him feels that the Traveler is pushing him onwards … where to he does not know but he always remains ready for the journey yet to come! One of these journeys also led him to Sharn a couple of months ago. He had heard a lot about Sharn … and there was something special about this city. He was initially homeless and effectively lived on the street but his brute muscles helped me to find employment as an enforcer or bodyguard. Recently, he has been seeking a more adventurous task and is actively looking for new opportunities.
