    Incidentally, I think we might not have received experience since.. the island, which seems like a million years ago now; but not for the powerhouse fight you guys did while I was out of commission, and so forth. Seeming as we have 'resolved' our impediment in Bordeleaux, it might be time for a little XP booster.

    And we can do a little social RP at Gunther's while Kwolf does some bird snoopin'! I'll set it up a bit.
    alright, take 100 xp

    Is this for the trial or for stuff before the trial? Trying to determine if Gimgroth should earn it or not. Also has there been any established way to advance the NPCs?

    XP History and Totals are here:

    18/12/22
    Gimgroth 5635
    - Point at which he left


    6/9/23
    Gimgroth 5935
    - Earned on his side adventure I think

    16/11/23
    Bertelis 6725
    Wighard 6675
    Bruno, Meloth 6300
    Jasmine 6250
    Gimgroth 6035
    Kwolf 975
    Schlapp 250


    Of course I should take Meloth off that and put Regine on it

    So Gimgroth has "lost" about 700XP from not being around but is still in the ball park

    Yeah Bramble awarded 300XP for Gimgroth and Beatrix journey side adventure. Has Siobhan improved her stats at all? Wondering how to advance this girls during our travels. Eventually I would like Beatrix to learn Read/Write but that means moving on from Entertainer career.

    I began writing up Siobhan but stopped


    I think we agreed that NPCs would take 1/2XP like Familiars

    So Beatrix would have 200?

    At some point I think Gimgroth will ask Wighard to teach Beatrix her letters as he is not learned in that way.

    used the XP to master Dodge blow. A +10% to my dodge is not a bad thing I think.

    @Bramble, I suggest unless there's a compelling reason, we'd all earn the XP for the group's activities, even though only half were permitted to put their necks on the line. Personal XP rewards are neat, but I think you've done well so far in reserving them for isolated, personal conflicts like Gimgroth's 1st day alley punchup or Bertelis' duel with the sergeant. And even than if one player is surging ahead, it might not feel too good, so concocting a reason to give other players some kind of catchup challenge as a chance to earn more, as events go on.

    I know I just created 'Maxime' with the character creator and had not thought to level her up past that. Though I suppose if we are going to end up doing a 'B team rescues the A team' plot at some point, we might need to lock that down and formalize it.

    lets say you find an old targeteer, and he wants you to do some missions for him.

    I had thought it was for everything everybody had done since the island fight, not just for the duel

    Team Junior Slug Neonate go!

    So that's what?

    Odmar

    Siobhan

    Jasmine's choice of 'prime' orphan, too. Odmar will probably stay home - he has more than earned his pay. Poor bugger had to control all our horses while Wighard kept turning them insane in the bowels of the ship with miscasts.

    Ideally, Regine and Bruno would also have some kind of tagalongs they could have in the Lil' Sluggers. Bruno hasn't exactly bonded with his poor footman, and Farothel is entitled to a secondary character he actually likes! And Regine's not been here long enough to really snowball a follower. But these are good ambitions to add to our entourage.

    Odmar will be our Sam Gamgee, he never asked for any of this, but he will see it through and return to Averland

    Or possibly repay Bertelis by some final act of self-sacrifice
