Testing a system for hexcrawl exploration.

Here are the rules

I want between 3-6 players.

This will probably be very minimal and casual since its just a test game. If you have questions or suggestions, let me know; the google doc is also open to comment so go ahead and leave one or 50.

Added your inventory box. It might be best to wait till we get our players all in before buying items since the money will increase with each player and you guys should probably work out at least some of the inventory together; like rations and such.

Ugh.

It's a bit of a work in progress. Nit sure what I'm missing but I feel I'm missing a few things.

Spoiler: Weirdo coming in. (click to show/hide)

Name:Eltrix The Returned One!
Appearance: Bronze and more bronze. Four armed and weaved in expensive fabrics. Certain parts slightly more pushed out. Betraying that there is still flesh there that it needs protection or it will be damaged.

A smile beneath a mask. Perhaps green or blue eyed. Perhaps blond haired or black haired. Perhaps the face of someone with bags under their eyes and a life of hardship.

She is more construct then human.



Backstory:Imaging for one moment. That you started out as someone weak. Someone utterly pathetic in every way. Some street urchin or a wild girl and you will understand who she was

But who she is now. Is someone who through the power of rituals and perhaps mythical materials has altered herself beyond belief. With help beyond a doubt.

How would one remove their arms. Their legs. Destroy and remove organs that simply are not necessary. More construct then human food and drink are still required.

Beneath that glowing mask there's still something there. Now she's exploring seeking knowledge seeking something out. In their own mind immortal and wanting to know all.

Starting items:Repair kit. ((Comes with required metal and other parts. Aka medical Kit for her.))
A Shiv aka Knife.
A small pack of food. ((Four rations.))
A canteen of water.
Some oil for fixing up and preventing joints from getting rusty. ((Lantern oil))
Ax
Fur cloak.
Sun cloak.
Basic insulation for form ((pants and shirt))
Hunting spear. It is a shiny spear. Good spear.

...Reserving in case

[AbstractTraitorHero]

Is their any items you would recommend I get guys?

[Ozarck]

PW, I would like to have a double reversible cloak. It has different patterns/colors on the front and back. additionally, it can be turned inside out, and has different colors/patterns on each of those sides as well. I'm thinking green camo(foresty), tan (sand, or maybe like tall grass-colored), dark grey (for cityscapes), and white.

I'm thinking bows and ax for skills for my guy. probably trapping as well, or something to help offset one of my lower stats. Also stealth.

Spoiler: What kinds of stuff we should probably get (click to show/hide)

please review this list and suggest corrections, additions, etc.

basic equipment everyone should get one or more of:
tinder box
shirt and pants
canteen (multiple, depending on the expected duration of the expedition)
ration (multiple, depending on the expected duration of the expedition)
knife
thread and needle set
booze
candles
weapon of choice
ammo for weapon of choice.

secondary items everyone should consider:
fur cloak
knitted hat
sun cloak
straw cape
rope
at least one tool (ax, hammer, pickax, lantern, etc.)
whistle

Things we could use as "group items" (though having more than one of each would still be helpful)
climbing gear (except harness, probably)
collapsible ladder
sample set
collapsible boat

[LordPorkins]

Do you guys perchance have room for 1 more?
Im interested in this game setup.

((Also how many skills do you start out with? And How much Gold?))

[Tiruin]

I'm unsure who is picked but if I am, and despite it saying 'minimal and casual', I'll be picking items after y'all do. Because that will be happening in the real game anyway. Although I do always pick misc items for practicality...
