Currency should be kept up with on CS, and changed upon usage in posts. This also applies to all ammunitions, firearms or bows.  Prices should be made to resemble comparable amounts of common items.. Like a beer is usually 2 or 3 bucks, so to make it easy we just translate to 2 or 3 bits, as they should resemble or be close to comparative currencies of today.[/hider]

[hider= CHARACTER CREATION, SKILLS & ATTRIBUTES]
[center][h3][color=f7941d]Level:[/color][/h3][/center]
You will need to add a level to your character sheet as well. I plan on rewarding everyone throughout the story with experience and each time you level up or learn a new skill I will provide you with new skillsets and points to disperse in your respective preexisting lists as well. Everyone's character should be level one, and should fit into one of these categories: 

         [color=fff200]Rogue[/color], [color=fff200]Cutpurse[/color], [color=fff200]Burglar[/color], [color=fff200]Strong-Arm[/color], [color=fff200]Bodyguard[/color], [color=fff200]Apothecary[/color], [color=fff200]Alchemist[/color], [color=fff200]Forger[/color], [color=fff200]Pirate[/color], [color=fff200]Bandit[/color], [color=fff200]Duelist[/color], [color=fff200]etc[/color].. and everyone should be considered either a novice or apprentice level to start.
[center][h3][color=f7941d]Armor:[/color][/h3][/center]
Armor rating will give you a bit of protection from incoming damage and may take the entire brunt of a blow if you're lucky. These armor attributes will be used when trying to make a saving throw in combat posts. You will roll a 1d20 + Armor to see  if you take a wound or not. The wound doesn't have to be lethal, just a guideline for posting as is intended, for the sake of the story as with the rest of it. Also take note that [color=fff200][b]Regular Clothing[/b][/color] has a mod value of [color=fff200][b]+1[/b][/color], and [color=fff200][b]Bludgeoning Damage[/b][/color] takes a [color=fff200][b]-1[/b][/color] to your score as well.

[center][h3][color=f7941d]Skills:[/color][/h3][/center]
     Beginning characters will also get [b] [color=f7941d]20 points[/color] [/b]to divide into at least [b][color=f7941d]5 skillset[/color] [/b]categories. You may have more than [color=f7941d]5[/color] but [color=f7941d]no less[/color].

    Skillsets include: [color=fff200]Pick-pocketing[/color], [color=fff200]Lock-Picking[/color], [color=fff200]Stealth/Subterfuge[/color], [color=fff200]Scaling/Climbing[/color], [color=fff200]Disarming Security Devices/Traps[/color], [color=fff200]Pilfering[/color], [color=fff200]Shadow-Bending*[/color], [color=fff200]Swimming[/color], [color=fff200]Heightened Sense of Sight[/color], [color=fff200]Heightened Sense of Hearing[/color], [color=fff200]Illusion[/color], [color=fff200]Evasion[/color], [color=fff200]Stealthy Blow[/color], [color=fff200]Silver Tongue/Persuasion[/color], [color=fff200]Pan-handling[/color], [color=fff200]Acrobatics[/color], [color=fff200]Sleight of Hand[/color], [color=fff200]Gambling/Cheating[/color], [color=fff200]Throwing Weapons[/color], [color=fff200]Ranged Weapon Proficiency[/color], [color=fff200]Scheming[/color], [color=fff200]Parry[/color], etc..

  I am open to other skills as well but I prefer these simpler types.. Please make sure your inquiries aren't too lavish.

I'm not going to go to check every roll, and this will be based on trust in the individuals playing.  Remember that these players aren't exactly the best of people, so some failures will add to their character and should provide a good read, and also make everyone write a bit out pocket..  at least that's the idea.  Again you don't have to roll on every occasion or every small action, just on ones that hold weight in each post.  A [color=f7941d][b]Dice Roller[/b][/color] can be found on the home page of the Guild over on the right I think.  Look at Y'Vanna's sheet to see how these points are dispersed. You don't have to only have [b][color=f7941d]5[/color] [/b] skills, just not any less than that.[/hider]
