Jokes on you, it'll only make Bonesword have a wet shirt.

Ok so here's the plan with the whole group split thing.

I tried to split the group and balance it out (somewhat), and I understand the vagueness of the two groups.

The crypt group will be going into the crypt and killing whatever's in it and actually getting the goods within it. This group needs to be careful with how they do the diving into the dungeon and getting that stuff done. This group needs to be calm within the dungeon and they'll have their own encounters separate from the surface. They'll get less loot from unique characters that I have planned out for their encounters, but they'll get first hand at loot within (provided there is any).

The surface will meet a few more characters and will get better loot from those characters I have planned for their encounters. One of them is a goblin inventor that will have a cartel of random crap (be it metals to meatbread), and another would be a possible tribal chieftain. This group can be as reckless as they want, but they need to remember that the crypt is to be protected, and if stuff gets in, the plot I have will change.

I didn't want to split the group up, but it'd be a clusterfuck otherwise if everyone went into the crypt. Any questions about it?

I'm going to give you guys on the surface a reason to stay outside. I understand it may sound kind of bad right now but with a large group that I was completely unaware of at the time. I'll tweak my last post to give a reason for this.

Many apologies about that misconception.

"Should we need to perform surgery, I'd... well... as long as you don't experiment while you perform it." Irthorne was a bit opposed to allowing the Ultharid to do this because of his past, but at the same time he was the best candidate in the party for doing so. Either way, the gnome wizard walked over to the stump he gave his speech on before and stood overlooking the whole group. "This is gonna go pretty well, I can feel it." He fired an arcane bolt into the air to grab the attention of everyone, and then he began his spiel.

"Thank you all again for helping with this, I honestly can't thank you enough. We have everyone who can contribute to this mission accounted for, and now it's time for the dreaded team split." Irthorne didn't want the team to die in the crypt due to carelessness, so the group members he would have to choose to enter the crypt would have to be the ones who he was sure wouldn't bring the cave in. "Kara, Bartimus, Skarrab-Alea, Masrith and Amarilla, you 5 are going to be the group that comes with me into the crypt..." Asking Bartimus to watch Kara was a bit rude, so naturally he and Kara would go into the crypt as a sort of apology to Bartimus. Skarrab-Alea frightened the gnome out of fear for what she could do to him if he upset her, and the same applied to Masrith to a different degree. Masrith frightened the gnome, but that wasn't the reason why he was going in, whereas he was really going in as a guide because he was born underground and had natural traits to accompany that. Lastly, Amarilla was adverse to the sun, so she would go in due to that.

"... and Feon, Kol'Rakul, Andrik, Lorik, and Ingrim are on outside duty. I promise you sort would be compensated for this rather dreary task. I also must ask you guys to stay outside. A few days ago I had a few of the kings men scout out this crypt and they reported a few notes of non-undead leaving the crypt. A goblin, being a bit of a concern to me with all the gear reported on the goblin." Feon's immense strength and Kol'Rakul's... passion were a bit unstable, plus Feon was easily manipulated so keeping her away from Masrith in case of a coup was a good idea. Andrik was better served where he could see and scout easily, while Lorik had a bit of an unstable shadow, which couldn't be tracked in the dark, so there was fear in that. Ingrim was with a large group of his contraptions, so if they all went into this crypt, they'd likely cause a cave in.

"Those going into the crypt, meet in the first room in no more than 5 minutes! Dismissed!"

@KoL
Are you trying to give the swordsman a bonejob?

Edit: Even if you aren't, I laughed a bit.

Okay, I'm going to need to clarify a few things on Neutral Zones, because I can already tell people think they are Venice when they are more like the Savagelands. I'll try and get the Primer up sooner rather then later.

Though KoL should have something in mind for Bonesword since he's already thrown himself to the wolves in sheep's clothing.

@Lonewolf685

I imagined it more like a western-frontier styled America, with outlaws and that sort, where I know there'd be like settlements with voodoo and whatchamacallits.

@Mega Birb
He can't. It's how he wins drinking games.

In all honesty, he probably developed a habit of drinking when he was living with the settlement he defended in his backstory.

Bonesword

~Intermission~

With the recent war over with and one hopefully not happening any time soon, the skeleton was roaming around the cities of the Nexus in his spare time, with the majority of them being neutral, and he was currently spending time at his favorite region. There was a region of neutral territory where anyone was allowed and the troubles of war were pretty much ignored, allowing for the mingling of factions as long as there was no violence out of hatred. The main attraction of this place, however, wasn't the equality of the various factions... This region was well-renowned for it's alcohol, being it's source of unofficial 'power'.

The swordsman entered a locally-owned tavern. It was rather cheap for the prices it sold at, and for what they sold as stock it was just a dandy little place. Bonesword spent a lot of his time here when he wasn't on duty, and a lot of money went into buying drinks. The skeleton wasn't an alcoholic by any means, he just drank heavily mixed drinks which were rather expensive. Without a moment of hesitation, the skeleton went into the pub and up to the bar, where he began to place his order for his standard drink. "A kamikaze and a full bottle of Scotch." Expensive? Yes. Underrated? Hell no. The skeleton waited for his drink as he pulled a small puzzle cube out of his pocket and played with it in his hands, shifting it up and flicking through it while trying to solve it.

@TheWindel
Can there be a drinking game?

The War of the Three

@Lonewolf685
Would it be safe to assume that the 3 factions could mingle there during intermissions, as long as no violence occurred?

The War of the Three

@Lonewolf685
Is there a neutral territory with power in liquor?

Edit: Wait if Bonesword defended a small settlement of humans, would it be safe to assume he can go back at any time?
