Q:  Is it possible to kill Gilbert?  /jk
He is your familiar now. You can kill him all you want; the problem is he's just going to keep coming back.


Q:  Is death permanent?
Death is permanent, for the most part. In my mind, there are two one-use ways to get around death that you can find. Mind you, your spot will be taken up if you die, but if you manage to find the workarounds (which are going to be both extremely rare and extremely difficult to reach) then you are added regardless.

It would have been kind of a nod to a similar Elder Scrolls: Oblivion quest, where they would have tried to seduce you, get you to remove your equipment, and then rob you.

Q: Could we have recruited both them and their pimp bodyguard, and have had him slap people?

No. They had no pimp, the prostitution thing was just a ruse to get you inside their lair. And more importantly, they wouldn't join you, as their REAL business was more lucrative than prostitution, and even some unlucky pirating.

So it would of been quite the epic fail of a side quest?  That's what I thought it was going to be at the time.

Well, for one, it would have given you access to their pretty pile of loot. Second, it would have made the guards nice to you, giving you a safe haven should you ever need to run from anyone.

A general idea. It's going to be both a combat boost (when it benefits Armok [most of the time] as well as a boost in other areas that help him, such as provoking fights. It will also allow you to take command of Armok's innumerable numbers of soldiers.

Should people do silly stuff with magic, like giant animals made of fire, or skating across the ocean using ice magic? Or should we stick to, "I shoot fire at my enemies, they burn"...

Should we consider arrows to be as randomly lethal to us as they would be in DF adventurer mode?

Does it seem likely that we will end up being the most powerful people in the universe after a few lucky skill rolls?

Your martial trance was acquired in a way that can only be described as magic. It's going to be a plot hook much, MUCH, later; for the sake of not spoiling it, that's all I can say.

1. Anything goes in this world. Magic is magic. However, if it's utterly ridiculous, there will be penalties, depending on just how ridiculous it is.

2. No. If you're very accurate they could be just as deadly, but not in a "pierce-every-organ" way, more of a "lucky shot hit your throat/brain" way.

3. You will not be. As of now, you are actually rather unknown in the pirating world. There are many pirates that vastly outnumber you, and considering Farceface alone gave you so much trouble, you really should fear the greater pirates (Lore hint: The greatest privateer in the Kingdom of Crystals has Power Armor)

1. It is not. That would be very hard to keep track of, and pretty much pointless, as you could just say that there was a restocking every time you go to port, not to mention the ammo dumps in the ships themselves.
2. Of course. That was actually an error on my part when you failed. I believe you failed to cast it anyways, but don't worry; in the future, feel free to cast it.
3. This is meant to be as entertaining as I can make it, therefore Rule of Funny/Cool always applies. However, that does not mean that you can get away with OOC references (much), or other insane things very often. But for example, if you kick a whore in the crotch, and she rolls a 1 to avoid damage, Armok may intervene enough to give her testicles, just to make it that much more painful.

If something funny happens that isn't based on the current situation in any logical way, expect Armok of Gilbert to be behind it.

A: Well, you made the ship slightly less ugly, and I just felt like giving a nod to another forum game, a rather awesome one at that.
