@Duesal think we can probably bluff her into not daring to touch it unless it is about life and death. We are afterall dread sorcerer-king Viserys Targaryen. Will add such a warning now.
 
Busy at work and can't contribute much at the moment.

Stop trying to give away our Mithral! That shit is rare and expensive. It might seem like we have a lot of the stuff, but we really don't, especially when we consider how many more of our own people will need armor soon.

We're better off just not giving it to her at all. This is like giving a child a knife IRL because they might need it, giving them no training on when and where it should be used, then telling them not to play with it. Of course she's going to run off and play adventurer. She's a little girl.

Changed it to mwk bronze armor like Waymars instead. Fits better with their theme anyway.

Ysilla is getting a dragonhide or mithral armor though, she is practically one step from going full PC adventuerer.

Edit: @Duesal she wont if she is terrified she will be cursed. :p

Can... Can we please not send Waymar's sister to her death? Or even hint at making her an adventurer? @Fehu I mean, we can leave such mad ideas to after we spoke with them?

@all this girl is what, 8?

What about a ring of mending, infinite uses per day?

Okay, this is way too much. Ysilla is a child. Not a PC, a child. She doesn't have magic, she can't fight. Don't give her anything but PfE. Especially not dragonhide when we have yet to equip our own PCs in dragonhide.

When she becomes a PC, then we equip her.
 
Yeaaaah... So let me just abridge what will not be contentious.

[X] Present the following Gifts:
-[X] Fabricate 5 (1lb) daggers of Cold Iron with bronze details and First Men runes. (One for each member, using the Rhyonish mace.)
-[X] Lord Royce and sons are given MwK bronze armor like Waymars, additionally weirwood longbows with obsidian tipped arrows.
-[X] Lady Royce and daughter are given Shaitan necklaces, Ysilla's a PfE amulet, additionally a few bolts of PoE fabric. (Good Quality, but the novelty is its extraplanar fibers.)
-[X] Books
--[X] Waymar knoweldge compendium on the Vale mostly.
--[X] History, religion, and law of Planetos.
--[X] Whomever with the knowledge Arcana adds esoteric texts and why-pacts-are-usually-too-good-to-be-true.


And... that should be good.

Don't need to dump "Oh and by the way, the Inner Planes/Outer Planes are a thing, for realz" on them just yet.

I strenuously object to your assertion that Ysilla has any sort of PC levels, and considering the extordionary claim, that an 8 year old in a low-magic environment is likely to be close to PC, I would like some evidence, or an explanation of your rationale, as I do not see the logic behind your statement.

Edit; sanity:

Also, I personally want the PfE to give to Ysilla to give to Dana to pay the debt.

@Crake, keep in mind this is the opening gift. I think we ended up giving them too much. You know what, I'll just make my own edits. We need something to "sell" at the end of all this. Also the armor is probably going to be taken as an insult.

[X] Opening Gifts
-[X] Fabricate 5 (1lb) razor-sharp daggers of Cold Iron with bronze details and First Men runes. (One for each member, using the Rhyonish mace.)
-[X] Weirwood longbows with obsidian tipped arrows.
-[X] Lady Royce and daughter are given Shaitan necklaces and additionally a few bolts of PoE fabric. (Good Quality, but the novelty is its extraplanar fibers.)
-[X] Books
--[X] Waymar knowledge compendium on the Vale mostly, detailing magical creatures that once resided there, their dangers, and how to deal with them.
-[X] Waymar visits in plain clothes initially. We want to be dramatic when showing off his enchanted armor. We plan to surprise Waymar with the ring that holds his armor, along with other magic items, as his knighthood gifts.

And am off now, all I wanted were the CI daggers anyhow.

Ysilla aint an adventuerer and dont have any PC levels .... I never said that. But she did agree to favors and if it means accompanying wildlings into the mauntains. But you are right.

She's a future adventurer. We'll cultivate her when the time comes. I'm hoping to eventually awaken magic in her for some neat runic casting.
 
Description: These leather gloves bear the markings of hard wear, scorch-marks cuts and other less identifiable perils yet they are almost comforting to wear, seeming to guise the wearer's fingers away from harm by perilous mechanical devices.

Abilities:
  • The wearer gains a +5 competence bonus on Craft and Knowledge checks made to repair or understand mechanical devices.
  • Once per day, the wearer may touch a device and instantly analyze it, learning its purpose and general method of operation, as well as diagnosing any acute malfunctions of the device, but not its magical powers or additional non-mechanical effects.
Absolutely going to Lya. Well, for crafting purposes. Maybe we can have this for crafting and make her a set of gloves for battle?

We can always buy more in the Opaline Vault, it's not all that rare there, still expensive of course, but we can buy as much as we need there, it's 12 Scepters per lb there, so that's 24 IM per lb, giving then 5 lb of Mithril only cost us 120 IM, we can go to the Opaline Vault and back within less than a day, so I really think we should make those daggers of Mithril instead of cold iron, Mithril just looks so much more impressive.

Before we got a steady source of Mithril I get saving it, but we have a source we can buy as much Mithril as we want from, so 5 1 lb daggers is just 120 IM.

Okay, an epiphany has occurred. The Bone-Thrall whip is very useful to us. Distasteful to the extreme, but useful nonetheless. We can use it in Tyrosh. When a powerful fiend shows up that we'd normally kill out of a lack of options for containment, we can get it with the whip and march it right off to sacrifice.

I want to bring the whip to Sothoryos as well. Actually, I want to bring it to every major hotspot of sacrifices until we reach the Ninth Circle of magic and get Dominate Monster for Viserys.

No. Mithral. Weapons.

Cold Iron is extremely rare and pretty useful. Mithral for a weapon is just Silver without the -1 damage.

@Duesal van you please include the scheme to have Waymar in plain clothes for the visit? Viserys can make some excuse no problem.

Got to catch intermunicipal bus soon. And I hate typing on my phone.

Anything that powerful is more likely than not going to beat the saving throw to resist the effect. Viserys has a higher spell DC on BP and GSE. Lya, Tyene, Dany, and Malarys, too.

Aww... :( Okay, trophies, then. And crafting materials.

Mithral however look far more impressive than cold iron, Mithral looks magical, cold iron just looks like normal iron, so while cold iron might be more useful, Mithral is more showy meaning it's a better prestige gift.
 
If our Baleful Polymorph really has a higher DC than Dominate Monster this item really is all kinds of useless. How on earth does a level 9 spell get beat out by level 5? I want to sacrifice it out of pure disgust now.

Showy is just a matter of fabricated ornamentation, using bronze/gold/silver.
 
A Monkey would be disrespectful towards our Monkey citizens, may i suggest instead a less noble creature, such as a stag or a Cat?
Can we please not go there? The day when the inbred pyromaniac is politically correct is the day he's dead inside. Let's get back to the regularly scheduled blood sacrifice and insults thrown in the faces of the Gods themselves!
