Title: Winter Phase Processing 487-488
Post by: GM Craig on October 04, 2017, 12:26:00 PM
1. Experience
For every advancement check you earned during the summer season, roll 1d20. The target is whatever the skill, trait or passion is currently at. If you roll higher, the still, trait, or passion advances by one. Each skill, trait, and passion can have at most only one experience roll, regardless of how many times I told you that you earned a check.

2. Age
Increment your age by 1. As you are under 35, you do not need to make any aging checks.

3. Squire
a. Increment your Squire's age by one (if applicable)
b. Your squire may, at your direction, increase one of his primary skills. Otherwise, he uses his age for all skill checks.

4. Manor Fate (landholders only)
Roll d6 and 1d20 for Manorial Luck (higher is better) and roll 3d6+5 for weather

5. Manor: Commoners
Concern (My Commoners) roll. (landholders only)

6. Clothing
Your best suit of clothing is now worth half it's current value.

7. Family Events
I need 1d20 for family events. Additional rolls may follow this.

8. Skills Advancement
a. You may roll 1d6+1 to generate a point pool, and increase any skills you wish (regular or combat) from that pool to a maximum of 15. Non-knightly skills may not be improved this way.
b. You may increase any one skill by 1 point (to a maximum of 20)
c. You may increase or decrease any one trait, passion or attribute by one point, with the following restrictions: Passions cannot be raised past 20; Traits cannot be raised past 19; SIZ cannot be altered after age 21; Attributes cannot exceed cultural maximums;

Note: If you increase any skills that your Squire also possesses, your squire may increase that skill as well.

10. Glory
Convert your Glory from pending to earned. You gain a bonus point every time your Glory ticks over a 1k increment. So, if you went from 1200 Glory to 3300 Glory, you gain 2 bonus points (2x 1k ticks). This bonus point must be spent immediately, and can apply to any attribute, trait, skill, combat skill or passion without restriction.

Post the rolls and changes in your personal threads please.

Despite being chieftains of a Nord community, do Arne and Valka make rolls for 4 and 5?  Technically they're part of Lady Habren's holdings.

You guys are not landlords, so no #4 or #5 for you.

Are we supposed to do #3? I vaguely remember us kitting out one person each to act as a squire. I just can't remember for sure.

#9 is missing. Is that the birds and the bees one?

I would think after her first/last experience with childbirth whenever Arne was getting a little randy Valka would tell him to go find a sheep or something. :)

OK, I've got Arne, Artaigne and Cedwyn done for winter processing, though Cedwyn owes me a few more rolls.

I'm going to need one of Arne or Valka to make the following rolls:

Childbirth (1d20)
Child Survival (1d20 for each child)

Arne rolled last time, and that was disastrous.  Valka?  Want the honors this time?

I believe you guys have some loot to divvy up. Glory would state that Sir Cedwyn would decide how it gets split, but the Northmen may have other ideas.

Also the Centurion King had intended at least some of the money he gave you to go to Falt, but as Sir Cedwyn is the rightful recipient of all awards, it is in reality his to do with as he wishes.

You recovered some coin from the ships, a suit of rich reinforced chain (10) and a rich shield (6). He had a rich axe, and a lance. There was also a rich helmet. You recovered the Thegn's charger as well, with rich tack and saddle.

You recovered 440 danarii (a little over £2).

I'm also interested in what is going to happen to Artaigne. If he gets some loot, he can maintain himself in Sarum over the winter, but he has been working as Sir Cedwyn's aide-de-camp.

War spoils . . . for Arne's part, he'd certainly expect some of it to go to him and Valka, but he thinks that Cedwyn would be honorable enough to consider that without actually being approached about it, and would trust him to be fair in the allottments.  He'd suggest to Cedwyn, though, that a decent chunk of the Centurion King's cash gift went to Sir Rodric's estate and widow.   

All that aside, he'd still be shooting glances at the suit of rich reinforced chainmail.   ;D

No, but I did roll a 6. No children I believe.

So I don't know how much cash that all would sell for, so I don't know if it'd be better to sell or keep it and divide/give it to whoever needs it more.

Is there a chart somewhere that says how much gear is, like if we wanted to buy it separately?

Ofc he would. Even though it has the same stats meaning it won't do him any better :P

Do you have a copy of the Pendragon sourcebook?  If so, try pp. 163-166

Here's the list and expected prices.

Charger: £20
Exquisite Tack: 100d
Caparison, Fancy: 80d
Exquisite Reinforced Chain: £10
Exquisite Knightly Shield: £1
Exquisite Axe: £1
War gear: £2
Noble Clothing: £2

Let's sell it all and split it. There's really no other way to make it equal among us. Obviously Artaigne should receive something but that's all up to Cedwyn there.

So everything would include the 440 danarii from the ships, reinforced chain, shield, axe, lance, helmet, charger with tack and saddle. The last list includes war gear for £2 and noble clothing for £2 as well.

Plus whatever Cedwyn wants to dole out from the Praetor's gift, if not all given to Habren.

I honestly just need a number so we can figure out upgrades and how much of it is going towards our landlord. I've heard some nasty rumors about him.  :P

All in favor of selling it all and splitting, as per my below post?
Title: Re: Winter Phase Processing 487-488
Post by: Artaigne on November 07, 2017, 08:24:36 PM
Money!

Err, I mean I vote for the selling.
Title: Re: Winter Phase Processing 487-488
Post by: Arne on November 07, 2017, 08:30:38 PM
Cash.  Yup.

Still . . . that charger.  Just curious here . . . it's worth £20 if its sold, but what kinda value could it have if used for breeding purposes?
Title: Re: Winter Phase Processing 487-488
Post by: Geoffrey on November 08, 2017, 10:50:59 AM
I don't know if it would be a lot, a charger is pretty much the standard/typical mount for the average knight.

Now if it's female, it might be worth trying to breed it with Cedwyn's destrier and see if it can produce something a little stronger.  I'm guessing that's what the one Lord (or whatever) that rented him for an obscene amount was looking to do.
Title: Re: Winter Phase Processing 487-488
Post by: GM Craig on November 09, 2017, 05:32:44 AM
Corey is right. There isn't a lot of money to be made from breeding, unless the horse is exceptional in some way. Every knight already has a herd of horses that fairly routinely produce chargers. Sir Cedwyn's mount is an exceptional animal, that's why he was able to make money breeding him.
Title: Re: Winter Phase Processing 487-488

Corey is right.

Probably the first time anyone has ever typed that, even if it was by mistake. :P

Just for that...no money for Falt! :P

Actually...after expenses to get home, Cedwyn would divide it 5 ways. Yes...he knows that means a double share for the Northmen but that's a feature not a bug.
