Lissa can also cast cure wounds if Drusus needs to conserve spells.

It's been fun.

You need not worry about spell conservation. Lesser restoration is one of Drusus' domain spells, so it doesn't use a slot.

Alright, popping on for quick exposition/fun facts about Oisín's beliefs;

Basically, I'm meshing Forgotten Realms and Irish (as well as other broader Celtic elements) pantheons according to my whims to flesh out Oisín's faith a bit more. Since his people have been pretty well decimated, it's unlikely that we'll encounter many practicing Clerics so I figure it's okay to add a few unique cultural elements and aspects.

One of these FR elements which has just come up is the Corner Stones of the Day; Covenant happens in the evening and consists in trading stories with others but doesn't really have an affect outside of flavour. As such, Oisín will observe it when he can and P Cs are interested and it'll be a good way to flesh out my bit of world building for his backstory.

Binding is the other one, happening in the morning and is the more traditional "write and pray for spells" bit which I'll basically just treat as Oisín praying anyway.

So, yeah. If any of you are interested in trading stories or the like, this is the time of day to bug Oisín.

Wooops, forgot to add the result of a certain history check. Look at the post in like 4 minutes to see what has been revealed to our good Cleric.

I don't know if this is still running, but just in case:

It's not in my nature to drop out of RPs, but my heart hasn't been in RPing lately and I'm not sure why. Deepest apologies, but I think I need to drop out or take a breather, at the very least.

It is still running Pyrite... and I do understand. Such burnouts do tend to happen.

Given the nature of the RP, you can step out for a while and when you want to come back we'll justify it in story if you'd like.

As for the rest of us here... things have slowed down a bit certainly. Want me to cut to the next day and then reveal what you find on a cursory search of the keep?

Yeah, I think that's a good idea. =)

Do we know that we're getting the keep as a reward yet? If not, we'd have to retcon a bunch of posts by now, so I say we just plow on. =)

It's been fun.

If we weren't before, I'd still doubt the previous tenants are about to lodge a complaint anyway.

Oisin, I knew it >:( Your thirst for power and taxes drove away one of your companions.

I like to think it was more my resposible civic mindedness.

Resposible civic mindedness is not moe! You can't reach the heart of your allies and followers with such a thing!

Though joking aside, it was a delight to have you in the RP Pyrite, you were really a great contribution to it. I hope everything goes well on your end and for us to meet again soon!

Dalt, since when has anything I've ever done been Moe? Even Ironically.

Also, yes, Sanna was probably my favourite interaction in the party. I sincerely hope you make a reappearance.

Also Faux is always moe.

Uh, Melon, are you still around? I'm going to advance to the next morning and it's been a while since you have posted.

If the game has lost your interest... well that's alright and we'll figure out what to do about it.

Ugh, busy, busy, busy. University is a different experience altogether.

I'm gonna stick with this for now. My pace might be somewhat sluggish, but I'm here.

Understood! Uhh... then, I won't be exactly waiting for Drusus before advancing things, but neither will I take you off the roster.

Within not so long, I should be providing a list of prices and items you may acquire to improve the Keep as well as which areas of it need repairs and how much it may roughly cost to do the labor. Yups, here is your money sink!

This is where 16 CHA comes in handy. I figure we can probably get some deals on bulk purchases since in some cases we'll basically be bankrolling their entire business/city.

Would it be possible to do the repairs ourselves free of charge? Drusus has a bit of a work ethic.

I tihnk it's assumed we'll be helping but none of us are trained masons and we will need people to help maintain the keep and generally make the place liveable.
