*After a moment the door opens and Donovan ushers Corbyn into his office.*

*The look of resolve on Donovan's face does not change when Vaun speaks, nor does he so much as flinch when Kidwynn talks about the Grey again. These were words he had heard before.* "Leisure? Self-proclaimed honors? I had thought you less petty than that, Storm daughter. Day and night have lit...

*The talk of bloodshed brought a steely look to the Preceptor's face as he looked over his notes. Seated at a table in the common room with Lightstorm at the ready, Donovan was pouring over the information he had gathered during the past few weeks. There were so many threats, so many possibilites fo...

Even with my late entry I had a blast this event. Not knowing whether or not I was going to be able to attend made seeing people all that much more enjoyable. Also, having four pages of plotlines to sort through within an hour of coming in-game was truly a Haven homecoming. I really enjoyed our info...

Yeah, you may heal them, but they still drop when they move. There's no weaseling out of that.

Ah, Understood. I've been playing it that you could heal/be healed while having real armor repaired, but we should get a clarification on this point.

I've been playing that real armor can be repaired while being worn so long as nothing disrupts the craftsman.

I don't quite get what you're asking, Reid. Why couldn't armor you're not wearing not be repaired?

This is how I've been playing a healer: No, you cannot heal someone who is crafting. Yes, you can heal someone who has potions brewing. No, you cannot heal someone who is being attacked. If they are attacked while in a mass heal they are no longer a part of the circle. If the healer is attacked or m...

*Donovan skims the letter and gives the Lord Regent a smile and a quick nod.*

"What do I think? I think I'll find a messenger."

:D LOL Reid, apparently we're not supposed to agree anymore. I like the idea, but with one modification. Why not just say that upon reaching a certain size a guild "graduates" up and becomes a house? They gain the ability to produce commodities and support additional trade routes. If they ...

Thanks Chris. I'll tell you what I would do to call it up the middle. First, armor physreps would have to meet the coverage requirements to be considered its appropriate category and get full points. Failing to meet those requirements would result in a one category penalty. Physreps for the categori...

See? Right here we have an excellent example of the weight issue coming at odds with the costume issue. This is not the SCA. We're not looking for authentic period costume. We are looking for good looking fantasy wear, and I can't see why the real-life weight of the armor should matter a lick when i...

To beat a dead horse one more time, you can not create rules that make you safe from the GM's. Period. You will always have to put some measure of trust in their vision and their sense of fairness. That said, subjectivity is inevitable. Sooner or later, someone makes a call - be it on the field or i...

I don't think anyone wants to see an additional armor category beyond heavy, so we're left to assign the current armor types to one of three categories. The light armor category is pretty well established (padded or soft leather) and reinforced/hardened leather is solidly in medium. Plate obviously ...

*Donovan glances down at Orien and puts a comforting hand on her shoulder.* "Every Phoenix goes with Kels on this journey, but he must walk the path alone. He is skilled enough that no mortal threat will bring him harm, but the battle he fights within himself is perilous indeed..." *Turnin...
