Why use a fort when a fortress-city on a magically suspended floating rock is better?

Answer: because then you would be accused of ripping off the royal palace, plus the cost...
(Yes, I just decided that there is at least a semi-monarchy, and that the castle floats on a rock)

Turn coming soon: Must put a bit of work into pizza first.

Day 6.

RAM dreams of magic. (Since a dream is a free action, I'm sorry but I will be using a random number. +%:random between -0.5 and 0.5: +0.5! You got lucky, but just to test, the next two generated were 0.1 and -0.5, so don't think it's entirely free...)

Schaudy works with the wolf to restore it's abilities. It gets a bit stronger, but it will take time before it can come close to it's youth in strength.
(18%*0.5 magic discovery: 9%. 46. +0.5)

RAM builds.
(13% * 0.5: 6.5%. 38.5. +0.5)


Frederick studies runes:
20% chance +10% per day to find one. On success, reset and bonus roll. Although later ones would theoretically be harder to find, as you would have less to find, at the same time you would start to see patterns that can be used to narrow your search. Also, this assumes using your previous grasp of magic to sense when they have power in them.
20% chance: 56. will be 30% tomorrow.

Also note that discovering their use would be harder. Gaining an elemental intuition of some sort would make it very easy, or finging how to cast them (I think it would be studied automatically...)
More research:
6% chance to learn to apply magic: 84. failed. +2%
Once you can apply magic, there will be rolls to see if you can direct it. By apply magic I mean putting your magic into the runes blindly. You would feel a response on success.
Further developments would include elemental discovery, and a more firm grasp on magic. As it is, you just faintly feel it, like seeing something out of the corner of your eye.

Fair enough. I think it would be helpful to know about a rune first, in order to have something to mess around with. Along these lines, I'll continue drawing random rune-like things in the sand.

Day 7.

Dyjeccu and Ranar continue to help, until it is finished!
The smith, grateful for your help, starts making supplies. They will be done tomorow. Please specify the types of items.
Ranar considers magic(Still no bonus from Fred until you meet him)
(2%: 42. +1%)

Dyjeccu, with nothing better to do, watches the smith and helps where he can. He learns something from it.

I wonder about Frederick, Schaudy, and RAM's preference in arms and armor.
For Dyjeccu, how about breastplate, helmet, short sword, round shield?

Thank you for offering. I'd like an iron rod (Two feet or so. Good as a wand and for bopping hostiles.) plus a few rings and amulets.

I want a full chain mail suit a sword some and some daggers, that is if I can afford them. If I can than any left over money will go towards buying things that the other guys want. Also can I use the day it will take to make the stuff helping and learning from the blacksmith?

This is a smith, not a woodcarver, unfortunately.

Regardless if you could afford it, chainmail takes time(I googled it to confirm a suspicion), and this isn't quite a master smith, either. If he was very good, he would spend time to work in a larger city.

I shall be eternally happy. I shall be able to construct elf hunting giant mecha. Which can pour magma.
Urist has been forced to use a friend as fertilizer lately.

In total, it looks like--
  • Dyjeccu- Breastplate, helmet, short sword
  • Nirur Torir- Iron rod, rings, amulets
  • Criptfeind- Breastplate, three daggers, sword
  • RAM- Breastplate, helmet (Assumed-yours is a vague reference)
Shield (Dyjeccu) and staff (Dwarfguy2) should be self-craftable.

Dwarfguy2, RAM, I think we are waiting for your day seven.

Edit- Nirur Torir's enchantment fodder

I intend to enchant rings and amulets to help my good friends, but that's difficult to do without any rings or amulets.
