Ah, this is nice. Looks like there might be some face-stabbin' time coming up for Mier.

I have a feeling that I set my character up to pass out, but it is something he would try since he doesn't know he's almost out of power. Who knows, maybe it will buy the two from Persistence some time since Sky was worried about that.

It looks like magical strain and experimentation are the route to more power, though. So as long as you don't wake up with a sword at your throat...

I have a semi-pet crow. This pleases me.

It turns out that I am exceptionally bad at this game.

I'm worried terribly about my Namu. This is as it should be.

Hah, I need to make sure Mier doesn't kill anyone else, or my kleptomania will end up with him having an inventory that hits the character limit.


Also, did the man have bolts for the crossbows?

Oh, right, I forgot to write that. Yes, he does. Thirty iron-tipped bolts.

So, I have no mana, don't know how to get more mana and don't know how to cast any spells. Everything I attempt fails. I'm out of ideas.

E: Actually, one more idea.

Sleeping and touching your own namu have both shown some tendency to recharge power.

Or you could stay blissfully unaware of your impending knock out. It's what I intend anyways.

It's certainly more fun that way.  :P

I try not to metagame, even if I know I'm walking straight into danger. It seems a lot more thrilling and in touch with the world if you only act on what your character would know. With that said you're more likely to lose a character or be lost forever by never metagaming. There's a fine line between fun and !!FUN!!.

Eh, I generally take the position that I (the player) am free to metagame however I want as long as I (the character) don't let the metagame put me OOC. So if I (the character) have a decision to make and one branch of that is the reasonable one given the knowledge I (the player) have, I'll generally take it, if it makes sense in-universe. That's the best balance I've found between powergaming/munchkining and being suicidally dedicated to no meta knowledge RP.
