I like the Goblin Market idea, but the name wont fit. In the Dresdenverse Goblins are hunter types, not merchant. They are servants of the Erlking, Dresden kinda fell into their lap in one of the later books, Turn Coat or Changes I think. Maybe something based on Rumplstiltskin? He sounds like he might be a major wyldfae, not beholden to Summer or Winter, and seemed to love his bargains. And threshold rules wouldn't work, maybe have it Accorded Neutral Territory?</p>Wow, this blew up while I was looking away.

<p>In addition to the doubling, I am using the Critical Hit deck for all monsters, and using the Critical Fumble deck on players only, and dropping the party from the fast track to medium track experience progression.</p>

<p><span class=messageboard-ooc> Personally, I didn't reallly consider this to be part of the campaign, more of a prequel to say, like in a TV show where you see flashbacks and see the characters actually had been around each other, and were more connected than you are led to believe at first. Not everyone is interacting with everyone, and after Kishta's berating, most will go their different ways, unless Salsa throws something into the mix. It does kinda open some doors for the forming of the party later though, even if not everyone here comes back (i.e. gets chosen for the group). It also gives small ties so that should one drop out, there are other characters that didn't originally make it that Salsa could shoot of a PM to to see if they are interested. And this will actually be my first PbP if I make the cut, so this is a chance for me to stretch my creative muscles and get used to fleshing out a character in text, which I much appreciate. I'm seeing there are whole levels of nuance you can use to add more levels of detail to the character. /endwalloftext </span></p>Kishta wrote:"I might remember you. Tyl-Tyldric?
