This is to give us all something to do when the posts are waiting for peeps to post. This is "out of sequence" with the main action thread. Adventures have a lot of down time this is for that. Tell tall tales, recount stories of Mysantia(put these in both threads. ) I am mostly going to let this be freeform and not do much game mastering here.. You may post an unlimited number of posts here.this is an experiment that I really want to see used. another thought is that you can take my minor NPC and take their roll, do both sides of a conversation, I invite any one who reads this to make up an NPC and play them, there are no rules other than all you can do is Talk.Im going to make a few NPCs that will stay in here , representing people you meet as you go about your day. To make sure this is used , you do all your shopping here. I must be involved if money is to change hands.

hengest's NPC for campfire experiment "Averil" STR 11 INT 12 WIS 7 DEX 8 CON 10 CHA 7 0-level, innkeeper Age: 28 Was mistreated when a servant by a wealthy young man, thrown out and her silence bought with a bit of money. She used it wisely and now is the sole proprietor of this establishment, "The Former Maid." Her intellect is her best asset and she has a good verbal memory (for things said, who said them and when) which comes in handy in her line of work. She is also no slouch when it comes to lugging barrels and trunks. She prefers to hire as little help as possible and do most things herself. Pasty brown hair uncut for ten years in honor of the man she still loves, almost always braided tightly and tied up. mao obviously scrub or edit or tell me about any of this that doesn't fit. Tmw I will try to add to this and do something else in this thread.

Averil says he can have a plate of boiled potatoes or a mug of ale. "Do you have any Old Panther P-ss? (It is super cheep wine it goes for 1 copper, not all bars stock it) "If you want the cheapest fare, you came to the wrong place. Potatoes or ale." Averil polishes a glass without expression on her face.

Averil steps away for a few minutes then returns and keeps her eye on Rock. She shows with her body language that she is listening.

So far this i`s exactly my vision for this thread, keep in mind this is out of time and your pcs can be doing this as you want too. I envision that we will need more of these threads but that is a long way off.

Averil pulls an ale so that there is nearly no head at all and pushes it towards the paladin with a look of recognition.
