I am going to have it where you will stop at you first hostile encounter, if you want you can chart your path, no diagonal moving. If you don't I will chart it for you, favoring north and west.

You can move up to 4 spaces, after that you won't be able to return.

Soon I may add it where the sooner you leave the more spaces you can go, and a campout feature to go further.

Guards cannot leave the kingdom walls. Warrior will be a promotion that will allow this.

I cant believe I missed an entire day...
Quote
"Peradon, perhaps our guilds may be of use to each other. Thou hast dishonored thine, but I am a man who can forgive thee. May we grow rich together? Shall I propose a symbol of good will, and perhaps we may sell you thy dagger for a price, and we may become partners in thy business?"
"Interesting proposal. How much are you asking for it? I know for sure that I... eh... acquired... some extra gold. How does 10 gold sound?"
"Surely you jest, this dagger is worth 250 at least, why, you could pull the clothes right off someone's back without them noticing a thing if you were so inclined."

I don't think I have the ability yet, but you don't need a stand to sell it, I believe. I think stand is just to store more stuff. Maybe we could melt the dagger? Get metal, would that be possible?
It has since been decided that tools like daggers are useful in themselves even if you don't need the ability, for example we can gather leather with this dagger if we go adventuring, which we could then sell or save for when we learn to craft. So melting it down (especially before we've gotten a skill to do anything with the resulting metal) would be a suboptimal strategy to say the least...

Yeah, I wasn't thinking about it, really only worth selling for a large sum of money otherwise.

GBB, trading and banking sounds good. What are you thinking along the lines of an economy? Variable prices on materials that change from day to day? Like a roll 2d10 or something? As a guideline for human and NPC merchants, and maybe a PREDICT ECONOMY skill for merchants, that allows merchants to know prior to the roll? Maybe roll ahead of time?

"Surely you jest, this dagger is worth 250 at least, why, you could pull the clothes right off someone's back without them noticing a thing if you were so inclined."
"Ha, I could get one of those practically anywhere. If 250 is your final offer, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."
"Go on then, any price lower would be highway robbery! 100 for the dagger+150 for the skill it brings is as fair a deal as you'll find anywhere! Supply and Demand, know-nothing, almost no supply and now there's demand!"

((Really, it's a tier 2 skill anyway, by the time you can use the skill you'll probably have the money to buy it anyway. Also, I find it hilarious that you just recruited a guy because he was good at stealing things, and he'll immediately lose his ability to steal things upon recruitment.))

((Also, for our GM, can the thieves steal from NPCs too or just from players? It seems strange that NPCs can sell us stuff and steal our stuff but can't be robbed... Also, since Vivilas has the stand ability, can he set up a "snake oil" sort of stand, and sell stuff so useless it doesn't even take inventory space to NPCs, things like splinters of wood "From the crucifix", a chunk of rock calling it the "Philosopher's stone" or whatever the equivalent would be for this world?))

Venture out with Squeegy, I didn't come to this kingdom to sit around all day staring at empty streets.

As a guard, Squeegy was unable to leave the kingdom. If you still want to go the path he planned, or if you want to tell me a new path, I'll still credit you as having left at the time of your quoted post.

Well to answer BOTH of your questions the NPCs will mostly sell 'crap' items. I don't mean they wont have a use, but they will be things like not only common consumables, but tools without abilities like a hammer or knife. OCCASIONALLY they will have ability equipment. Even basic, ability-less weapons and items will still raise your temporary level and help you when adventuring.

So theres two answers:

1. If and when this becomes an open simulation, every GM task will be pieced out to GODS, the king, guild masters and their talisman holders... so that if any one of these posts leave, one of their underlings can take up the role, for the gods that may be followers. Any story telling will come from player made quests, and perhaps appointed temporary GMs aka writers.

2. In the linear story, NPCs will offer more and more valuable items. The price wont change, but players will have more and more ways of making an income, tht progression will get easier over time... to combat tougher threats.

The Prosperity God would likely be the person that influence that.

P.S.: I may run two games, one open game, and one for linear sessions that either reset or continue after.

P.P.S.: When an equipment "teaches" its' ability, it will "lose" it and become its' basic variant.

P.P.S.S.: Please check out this wonderful free kingdom game! http://www.noio.nl/2013/10/kingdom/

Yes, do that. Also, if I get injured I come back to the kingdom early because I'm not a determinator out to conquer the world, just a business man.

As Peradon scans the Tavern for some fresh meat, he spots a lone man enter. As he watches the man, he notices that he isnt buying anything, but rather moving around the entire tavern, picking everyone clean of all their money. When he came around to him, Peradon grabs him by the wrist.
"Hm. Sure looks like you've cleaned everyone out here. How would like an opportunity for something more... lucrative?"
"I would gladly. Their are few thieves in this world, so we should stick together. Nothing like endorsed thieving"
