Re: Grimoire of the Rift (IC)
Zachary, with little to do, continues to train. He makes a couple of rounds each night disguised in an old brown scrap robe patrolling the seedy streets as he brings some vigilante justice. He also keeps his ear to the ground about monsters or other supernatural threats.

"Definitely. That's why I'm here, actually. We're heading out to the Dragon province soon and I wanted to know beforehand if you wanted in on the Takuga project."

Re: Grimoire of the Rift (IC)
Lee sips his coffee. "Is Patricia going? I'm only really interested in her. Some same that given her level of training, she's one of the most knowledgeable people in the kingdom." He has a slightly perverted grin on his face. "Plus there aren't that many beautiful girls in Takuga, at least not ones that don't try to kill you."
He smirks and finishes his cup asking for another. "So you're going to Tokugawa huh? Going to see Nova Ryu?"

"Her and anyone else that's willing to help. I would imagine that your bloodlines would be particularly interested, since you'd be particularly good at killing devils. I mean, I know from the histories that a dire wolf who's had his teeth filled with silver can really hurt devils, so I'd imagine your teeth and claws and such would work the same way. Speaking of which, can you give me a referral to the head of your bloodline?"

Re: Grimoire of the Rift (IC)
"Nova Ryu. She is the princess of all dragons. With the exceptions of those who decide to leave and go either independent, or serve other lords."
He sips his coffee. "Our focus is mostly on the game. You see, warfare is but a game to us. Take your Crescent Dragon lady, do you think she could beat a Great Wyrm? That is why we invented the game. Fighting between two or more dragons directly would create mass problems, major damage to the land and cityscape. Making the act of fighting having rules and so on prevents such things. It also puts the fighting in the hands of the humans. If a dragon is so powerful that no human would challenge it, they effectively can't fight, and if they do try to fight directly, everyone turns on them. It keeps us in check."
He finishes his second cup. "Ultimately our slow breeding and lack of numbers prevents that sort of thing from happening too often. There are hundreds of thousands of humans in this kingdom, there are at best a few thousand dragons."

"That reminds me, I was wondering about Lady Aisha's title. Is there any such thing as a Crescent Dragon? Just figured that you, if anyone, would know what that meant."

Re: Grimoire of the Rift (IC)
"The Crescent Dragon is just a title. However she is named that cause she is probably the only human worthy of being called a Dragon. Yes there are humans that could fight say, a wyrmling one on one, but she's probably the only one that could take a dragon of her own age, that is to say a young adult, one on one."
He sips his third cup. "A few of the dragons asked Princess Ryu to ask her to change her title, but out of a combination of respect for Teru, and of Aisha's power, she declined the movement. Some suggested trial by combat, but there was no way to make the trial fair, and just. A human and a dragon's fighting style are too different to make a fair fight out of."
He downs the third cup, if it wasn't for the fact this guy was a dragon and not a human he'd probably need a bathroom.
"Of course there are all kinds of rumours surrounding the various humans who run around this kingdom, from Aisha, to Teru, to the various lords of the realm. Everyone has a rumour about them, some multiple."

Re: Grimoire of the Rift (IC)
"I've already heard a few of the rumors surrounding Aisha and the Princess, and learned first-hand that they aren't accurate. Say, are dragon nobles as schemy as human ones, or do you have more diffused scheming due to having more time at your disposal?
But to get back to the main topic, do you have any advice on dealing with Nova Ryu, or with the demons for that matter?"Prince Fraternal of Pudding, Snuzzlepal, Feezy Squeez Lover, MP, Member of The Most Noble And Ancient Order Of St. George, King of Gae Parabolae.

John spends the next week finding out as much about his new life as he can from mana. What he does, what his ranking within the guild is, what my source of income is etc..Avatar by CutHalion

Re: Grimoire of the Rift (IC)
Your primary job is to do whatever they tell you to. You're mostly assigned to work with Mana due to your ummm.. "former closeness". Your ranking is the lowest rank due to you having no actual merchant training. Your source is small commission on random jobs.
Mana is helpful in this, and encourages you to try and keep learning. She also tries to keep your chin up, as shippers always need bodyguards, and your fighting skills are far above hers.

Lucas
In the week, they have he focuses mostly on crafting. Unless somebody (either from our group or from the guild) wants something from him.
Spoiler
Outcome- 2100 gp and Healing Belt
100 for Danil for initial loan
If you need anything just tell me, as I have the highest money-making rate, I suppose we could treat it more like a group funds.
(Although if you don't tell me what you want I would just use it from time to time...)

Re: Grimoire of the Rift (IC)
At the end of the week your father comes in and looks over your work. "See you don't need my help to do work." He looks over your papers and healing belt. "Healing belts are good items to have, and you made a fair bit of money too. Of course it's always good to experiment some, that's how you learn the fastest, book learning will only get you so far."
He pats you on the back. "I have something to ask of you before you go to Tokugawa. There is a young woman from there, who needs to go back, I was wondering if she could hitch a ride with your caravan."
Edit: Also I checked your sheet. Didn't I give 1000 xp for the festival not 100? Or am I missing something?Last edited by Morithias; 2012-11-25 at 08:36 AM.

Lucas frowns for a second, then shrugs and says
"I have no reason to say no to that. Who is that woman?"
Spoiler
I mentioned that I have 2 sheets, the pathfinder one is where I added 1000 xp, gp changes and healing belt (I have no idea why I added 100 xp to the other sheet)

He nods and asks further "Should I know something about her? Treat her like a friend of family or more like a business partner?"

"Treat her like a human being. Treat her like you would any other person, therefore treat her well. You're a good person aren't you?"
He smiles. "This is a world where there are shapechangers, and shapeshifting magic, you should treat everyone well on that reason alone."
He leaves, leaving you to ponder this sentence.

'Huh, it was a bit weird...' he thinks.
'Is he often as cryptic as this time?' he asks Loiosh.
After this one week he goes once again to their group meeting. Hoping to get the necessary information from Mori/Patricia and to see others well prepared to this trip.
Edit
Spoiler
Yes I think it would be nice to start the Big Quest finally.
