would add to all of them some basic defensive building or something.

[Astarael42]

by "defensive building" you mean like the making a defensive wall around camp? Done.

[Astarael42]

New Updates:

Maps will be added into Character's tab info post soon as well a "chapter update"...basically to include the intermission between where the boat dropped us off and through the winter at Baulder's gate

I will be putting up a post to recruit new members: if anyone shows up here...welcome but be aware we move very slowly. The others can attest to that.

Posts regarding your actions over the winter, what sort of job you got, if you made any friends in the city, etc. Basically a slice of life post would be welcome. This is a large port and trade city; any typical jobs one might find here are fairly easy to obtain. work at the inns, guard work, dock work, farm work, hunting, fishing, smithing, etc. Almost anyone will be willing to take on an apprentice if they don't already have one. If you want some atypical/highly skilled job (want to be an opera singer, a thief, a wine maker, a blade smith, a midwife, etc) let me know and we can work it out within reason.

[orcpunx]

well.... For argurious i will be aiming for guard work, farm work and hunting.
will come up in a post in the next few days.

[Astarael42]

@orcpunx all those should be super easy to find. People always need grunts in those fields; hard labor but easy to find.

All of you if there is some "thing" you want for your characters or some "pet" you want for them please let me know here. Now is the time for me to work them into the story. We are traveled, wiser, and more focused than ever before...its a great time for our characters to start growing up into proper adventurers.

[Jollan]

I think Aiden would do guard work as well to learn how to fight. He already hunts, so maybe he could help Argurios with that. Since he grew up helping his father in the smithy, maybe he would get a job there as well.

[Astarael42]

all that should be good too @jollan. I assume you meant blacksmithing not armor or weapon smithing which are harder to break into.

[Jollan]

Pretty much. While Aiden's father did both and very well, Aiden hadn't started learning weapons and armor yet, because it was much more advanced than what he was learning and forging at the time.

[Astarael42]

Yeah that's absolutely no problem then. You could find "grunt" work at any one of those things.

[Jollan]

click if you dare!

*ahem* anyways, I should try posting in a couple days, I'm finishing off the semester with a ton of papers.

[orcpunx]

For Argurious he will also work with a leathercrafter.

when it comes to items
here is some stuff we would defenitly need for traveling.:
-leather long coats with fur on the inside.
-sleeping ruggs
-bows
-knifes
-ropes
-thin chains
-hatchets
- H saws
- new boots
- tarp
- cooking pot
- some water skins

For argurious:
- some leather
- bee wax
- nedels

maybe some other stuff... will see when i finish my post.

[Astarael42]

@orcpunx just be aware we can't actually carry much weight. Brisa is already at maximum capacity and the other two are close with what we already have. Will need to be really picky about what can be carried. Aside from bedroll, clothing, food, knives, and a tarp anything else needs to be thought over very well. Remember you are carrying all your personal stuff (weapons, personal items, etc) as well. Pick and choose what is absolutely needed for survival.

[orcpunx]

One thing i was thinking about is when we go forward we could have a little cart to help carry stuff..... i mean if we work over the winter we should be able to afford it.

[Astarael42]

Sure. If one of the two boys is willing to pull it (or split time pulling it).
