[Lonewolf]

After selling my leather armour and buying my chainmail, i have no problem to loan out the rest of my gold with sensible intrest rates. 

[Rasmus]

After selling the pearl and leather armour, getting chainmail instead, you have 52 gold left Lonewolf.

[Lonewolf]

So, who needs how much gold for his toys 

[faitherun (Fay-ith-er-run)]

What exactly does the breathingfilter do?

[Rasmus]

Increases chances of surviving a gastrap, simply.

[skoops6]

Ps. I also want to sell my leather armour and buy a shield

[faitherun (Fay-ith-er-run)]

I shall purchase a breathingfilter then

[Spectral Arbor]

How much gold would I need to borrow in order to purchase a Halberd?

If I can reasonably expect to regain that gold in the next adventure, I'd like to borrow it so I can purchase it. If not, I'll buy a spear and a half-dozen arrows.

Ah, of course, thankyou for clearing that up for me...

You're most welcome. My impish nature does get the better of me, sometimes. Should anyone else require clarification, all you need to do is ask...

[Rasmus]

Ps. I also want to sell my leather armour and buy a shield

That is a bad investment. They offer the same protection, but the shield won't protect you if someone shoots at you, only in melee, and as you can only get 50% out of your leather armour if you sell it, you will lose money.

no you misunderstand, I am also buying chainmail to replace the leather armor. I should have put it all in one post but selling the leather and buying the shield was an afterthought, hence the PS

[Rasmus]

As previously stated Skoops6.

You can't afford it, even if you sell your leather. You lack a bit of gold. And yes, it does impact your Sneaking, twice as badly as your leather armour does.

[skoops6]

hmm, that's odd. I can't seem to find the post you are quoting? I'm not sure why it isn't appearing for me.

Player   Skoops6       
Character   Knee-High Nellin       
Role   Halfling Thief      
Gold   50      
Arrows   5      
Wounds   2      
Fate   1      

I have the 50 gold required for the chainmail, but if it affects my sneak, I'll just pick up a health potion

[Rasmus]

You forget living costs. You leave with 50 gold, but that does not mean you have 50 gold to spend. Next quest I will deduct those spendings before posting your totals to you. You only have 30.

[skoops6]

oh, I understand now. shield then? if it doesn't affect my sneak? sorry about the hassle, this would be easier if I knew the rules at all 

[Rasmus]

Shield would not affect your sneaking. It would however decrease your shooting skill further.

I am off for a week and will start up the next Quest when I get back.

[Wiggus]

Are we ready to go with round two?

[Rasmus]

We are, and we will start Tuesday I would think.

However, Rudolph will be dropping out due to time constraints, so if anyone wants to take over his character or indeed roll up a new one then I am happily accepting applications.

[skoops6]

before we start, I will pick up a shield I think.

[Rasmus]

It will affect your accuracy with your bow. I will make sure to note it in the character sheet prior to the start of quest 2.

[Lonewolf]

Rudolph drops out?

"Poor Rudolph, we hardly knew thee."

*Loots the body* 

Anyway, i think my char is ready to go
