1. Cash good, bridge burning bad.

Unless the bridge really needs to be burnt and we get paid for it. Then bridge burning good.

It was our rightful pay, and we needed the money.
(Gold +60, Fame +1)

We spent several days at the Full Cup Inn as we looked for our next job. There was a dwarf shopkeeper who had a task for us; a couple of orcs had stolen his wife's diamond necklace. We learned that the orcs had a camp just outside of Tornassa.

It wasn't difficult to find the orc encampment. We spoke to the three warriors who were living there, and they said that they took the necklace because the dwarf owed them money for services that they had provided but hadn't been paid for. They claimed to have been working as guards for the dwarf's store. I wasn't sure about this arrangement; perhaps if they had been half-orcs it would have made sense, but full orcs were not reliable and likely wouldn't have been hired.

I didn't see any safe way to recover the necklace, so we gave up.

We simply walked away; the orcs looked too tough for us.

I was beginning to get used to living at the Full Cup Inn. It got loud at times, but it was nice to be so close to my party. The room I shared with my girlfriend Hermann was just the right size. It wasn't always peaceful.

1) I remember the time Stewart, our fighter, got drunk and came into our room.
2) I remember the time I caught Maris, our thief, stealing from me.

I was really surprised by the betrayal. I caught Maris with her hand in my coin pouch, which I had hidden under a loose floorboard in our room.

1) I didn't say anything, and it never happened again.
2) I confronted our thief and demanded restitution.

It is... really weird for a game like this to have retroactive continuity.

I didn't want to lose our thief, so I said nothing. There hadn't been a lot of money in that purse, and I made sure not to leave anything valuable in our room again.
(Gold -100, Diplomacy +10)

It was in my first year of adventuring that rumors about King Gareth's rule began to surface. I had a front-row seat for the event because we came across a job from his royal highness. A bounty was posted for an escaped elf prisoner. The 250 gold reward drew bounty hunters and adventurers from across the land, all of us hoping to capture the prisoner first.

After a few days of searching Tornassa with no success, we tried a new tactic.

1) I used my Divination magic. (Needs 15 Divination)
2) We spent a lot of money on bribes. (Needs 75 Gold)
I used my contacts in the Thieves Guild to find him. (Needs 10 Thieves Guild Faction)
3) We found his cellmate and tortured him.
4) We were unable to find him.
