oof the chain is heavy and the lock expensive. fine lets go for 25ft to be sure. i hope its worth it.

[Wofl]

[Ashley]  I hope this thing has a lot of treasure because you guys blew almost everything on it.

I hope Joy remembers that Summer promised us that we'd make enough money to level, it's 100gp each and she's only giving us 100? Or 10gp? No it has to be she had a trade plate to offer us.

[Joy the DM] I'll look it up later.

[Wofl]

The "Alice can't math" is so real, haha.

It's 5sp per foot, that's 125sp for 25 ft. Not 3gp.

[Τamamo]

I honestly don't know if this is a joke or if she's seriously this inept.
And imagine saving the world several times but staying level 3 forever because you can't afford to level up...

[Alice]

We all have to live up to our stereotypes. My math disability is the Bera system spelling catastrophe
And no, it's not a joke! It was very late, I was tired and in a hurry!



Anyway, yeah it sucks, that's all my gold coins. Lolibank is empty after this. But Tamamo's right we've got plot armor. We should try to delibertely not have enough money to level up for the lulz

[Wofl]

Leveling up to level 4 requires the following:
- Hero status as determined by a God, demi-god, arch demon, or other non-labeled divine beings with the power to do so.
- 1000 silver pieces of the local currency
- A combined total of 8000 XP and AP
- An orb for direct communication and someone with Godsight, which Ashley has because she rolled a 20 and I had to give it to her even though I didn't want to, I'm not kidding she asked for it and I told her she could have it only if she rolled a 20, or pre-ordained totem or token given by a divine being as a blank check.

Mixed currency will not work.
Silver in bulk will not work.
Or, those who train for years and have not attained the Hero status may still technically attain level 4 but will not gain any more experience, such as the guards in Neverwinter. Unless one of then is in fact a hero, all of them are always level 4, it is the highest level that can be attained without divine intervention. Still they have to pay 1000sp just in case they do ever become hero status.

Additional information that Alice doesn't care about:

To be eligible to marry a Princess or Queen, you must either have royal bloodline or hero status, again, hero status is only given by divine will, in the case of hero status, you will be given the title Prince Consort, advance to Duke, or be the Queen's consort given the marriage is to a reigning Queen.

[Alice]

Thank you but I do not think marrying a princess or queen is among the top priorities of any of us.

[1 lock and 25ft of chain purchased for 225sp]
You now have:
9sp
13gp
8pp

Maybe I made another grave math mistake, but the inventory says we have
5 cp
129 sp
0 gp
8 pp

Your calculation says we have the equivalent of 139 sp + 8pp, so 9.5 sp more. Sure you didn't forget anything we bought?
I believe this discrepancy already appeared after yesterday's purchases. I'll post the inventory after we finished poison cooking.

I believe we spent
1lb tobacco
1lb mandrake
4lbs alcohol
1 glass vial -> poison vial

[Wofl]

Take this surplus as a token of my esteem.

[Kashtan]

graciasI dont know how that happened either.
i had to put the chain and lock in the cart bc it really is too heavy. we could probably redistribute everything but thats too much work.
also help me out:Cat can pull a max of 800lbs of goods with the cart, but only if shes carrying no gear? its a bit absurd if shes carrying 150lbs and then pulls 800.thats the case rn. i think we gotta get the mules tomorrow go to the guild and let one mule pull and one go unburdened then switch halfways. its already too much for Cat to pull unless we put some goods on a mule.

It's easier than you think, just subtract the gear and packs of any Cat or Mule and subtract that from their maximum tow weight (also minus the cart and cart parts etc.)

[Τamamo]

Kashtan is right!
Right now Cat is carrying 117 lbs and the cart is loaded with 827 lbs. She already gave the tent to Yulya but it's still too much. We currently have so many things that Cat can't pull the cart. Maybe that changes when the cooking alcohol is gone.

[Wofl]

Correction, Cat can't pull the cart at the maximum speed. Encumbrance rules apply. Cat can move the cart up to three times her pulling capacity but at only 1/3 the speed (1mph at best). If between 1 and 2 times her towing capacity, it will move at 2/3 normal speed, 2mph at best.

For the sake of the campsite, you did not take the cart with you.

[Wofl]

[Ashley] Jesus, you guys already maxed out the cart full of junk? I might need war elephants after all just to pull around your hoard of baubles.

[Τamamo]

Yeah we're not dragging the cart along to make poison and get robbed by kobolds. The cart is at the guild.
And yeah it's full. Hobby's supplies alone are 500 lbs and the horse feed is another 100. The spare parts are 50 and Harbin's are 20. so from the 800, only 130lbs are available for our things.
