That... would be an unexpected consequence for sure.
I'll let Vidmaster7 run the inn. I'd rather do something else.I've been thinking about the denizens of Fawtlburgh.

* Gran and Vid could be innkeepers, either rivals or partners.

So, at last night's game, we had a pretty tough fight in which the fighter died (he failed his saves against Hold Person and was cut down) and the rest of us had to retreat because the healer was knocked unconscious and almost died too (-10 out of -12). As we recovered and planned to go back in the morning to finish the baddies off and retrieve the corpse of our fallen comrade (along with all the stuff he carried), the player of the dead fighter rolled a new character. So we went back, ready for vengeance, and killed everyone. Then the discussion turned to what we should do with the (partially eaten) corpse of our friend. None of us was strong enough to carry him back, so the possibility of turning the cave into a "hero's tomb" was floated. I asked "Wait, are we considering Ed to be a hero?" I got some strange looks, especially from Ed's player, as the answer came back that yes, he was a hero. So I threw my hands up in the air and proclaimed "F*&@! Now we'll have to redo that whole fight!" The others looked confused, so I said "They ate him. They should have been under the effects of a Hero's Feast!"
It a good thing that was the end of the night because after the laughing and groaning no one was ready to continue.
At least its not just the FAWTL people that have to suffer through your jokes.

My co-workers were disappointed today they couldn't trick me. they went ahead and changed all the clocks for day light savings time and tired to make me think I came in early. they failed.

In a few weeks we are going to start up a Rise of the Runelords game. We'll play RotR one week, and then back to Ruins of Azlant, and so on. There are several fighter-types in the group, so I said I might make a Bard. The others thought this was a great idea. I can't wait to make them regret telling me to play a Bard. For starters, I've copied down all the butchered song lyrics I've posted here in the last few weeks and will be singing them whenever I inspire someone. Bwahaha!
That's just totally awesome Gran! If I were doing inspire courage it'd be all just cribbed out from Manowar.

It is a solid idea in theory. A lot of martial really makes that performance stretch out its usefulness. Personally I want to play a Skald and sing all Viking Metal songs. (Amon Amarth for example.)

Whingey's Mom's birthday cake turned out GREAT. But, I left her gift at our house by accident. Oops.Told ye it'd be fine =)

Also, Vidmaster7, Vice president of US would be scccawwwyy.
I don't want to get into politics but I am happy he is not staying with us. for multiple reasons (No guys in black suits hanging around the hotel for starters!)

Blind Guardian too. The thing I don't like about skalds is not everyone can take their performances since it requires audible and visual components so it doesn't apply to animal companions(unless they understand common). Furthermore, gishes(eldritch knight, magus, warlock vigilante) cannot take their performances, as as well as kineticists. Whereas inspire courage applies to everyone.
There we go I can see that post now. day light savings time messing with things.
Ha the time skip has the board all a mess for me. same as last year.

Looks like my phone is dead. :-(
Unfortunately because we're poor we have the pay as you go phones so someone is most likely getting a new number. :-(
Oh I like that avatar. Its like a gnome general. we could call him a captain if you like.

I feel so tired now. Can we get rid of daylight savings time now? I think I said this last year but I have good research saying it hurts more then helps.
Aww but how am I gonna call you without your new number.... wait I don't think I had your old number. also how do you feel about 2am phone calls that start with "I'm bored"Looks like my phone is dead. :-(

I have many siblings so i already turn my phone volume off every night.

So I mentioned that we were going to have a celebrity staying with us. Turns out that is inaccurate its only that persons staff. I'm super relieved.
It was the Vice president (of the USA) BTW. Who was rumored but is not staying with us.
Well you were right. I can probably say without offending anyone politically that he's more well known and less liked than the singer of Weezer.
It is not a bad thing to be less well liked than a rock star. It's like being shorter than a storm giant - you may or may not yet be short.
Speaking of storm giants, I was having a talk with my group about retraining my barbarian to titan mauler and taking a level of titan fighter, and running around with a huge greatsword. We all looked at the picture of a storm giant next to a human, and how big the storm giant's greatsword was, and...just holy crap. It's like a 16 foot blade.
So the GM was like "Oh, suddenly all your combat is in tight dungeon corridors" to which I replied:
"Oh really? In Kingmaker?! Okay, you know what? I'm going to do this, just so you have to rebuild the entire AP and throw out all of the prepackaged notes you have on this game that is 90% outdoords."
Bluff called.
Of course I'm not going to rebuild my barbarian. He's a mounted fury. Do you have any idea how good mounted characters are in Kingmaker? I just wanted to make him feel an ass for trying to stifle a concept. I mean, shit, -6 to -8 or so to attack (not to mention encumbrance from such a massive weapon) for, what, 2d6 more damage and 10-15' more reach, is not a good tradeoff. It's really not. And I was being silly and facetious. I just hate when GMs pull out the ban stick instead of, you know, stepping up their game as a GM and dealing with the unexpected.
Then he started arguing about realism. In a game with giant, physics defying, flying fire-breathing reptiles that are smarter than humans, trolls whose bodies regrow even in an antimagic field, and wizards who can rub bat shit together and throw it and turn it into a giant ball of flame. Again - I wasn't serious about this idea at all, but the very fact that he would argue realism when those are things - that's asinine.
I've been thinking about the denizens of Fawtlburgh.
* Kjeldorn could run the stables
* Gran and Vid could be innkeepers, either rivals or partners.
* Nobody's Home would be a roving monk, honing his culinary skills at the inn(s) as part of a spiritual quest.
* Tacticslion could be a cleric, or cleric/monk
* LisaMarlene, given her fondness for doing Scottish pirate voices, could be skipper of the 'Osprey', a ship operating out of the town
* Captain Yesterday could be honorary head of the town militia, as well as being in charge of the town's fortifications and other infrastructure (day-to-day control of the militia would be in the hands of Sergeant TOZ, with Drejk taking care of the artillery)
* Lynora could run the post office
* Vankyre could be head of the Ironsmith's Guild
* Tequila Sunrise could be the town's free-thinking mayor
* Scintillae could be high priestess of the temple of our knowledge deity, which also acts as a library and school
* FreeholdDM could run a dancehall, which would also provide a safe space for ladies & gentlemen of the night to practice their trade, should they so wish.
* The Vagrant Erudite, with his ferrets, could be the local representative of the Thieves' Guild of Paizonia
* Just a Mort could be a shapechanger, and chief of the local druids' circle
* I could be either the town ranger, or a 'resting' mercenary presently running the town's dodgy school of swordplay.
it has to be underground.
