Bit busy at work so I'm gonna have to delegate this one.

As for the rolls, well, I'm not mad about those. What we're doing there is game changing, like extremely game changing.

Once the weirwoods are fire proof that gives the O.G.'s an in with the Plane of Fire, a whole new plane, away from the Inbred Ice Zombies, where they can consolidate even more power.

The Fungal pods will open up whole new avenues for our production lines. Once hard to acquire materials (provided they are 'organic' in nature) can be synthesized on mass.

Either way either one of these succeeding is going to be a kick in the nuts to our enemies, so we can be damn sure they're probably going to be trying to fuck it up at some point.
 
@Duesal

My recommendation.

Kill the Salt Magnate in a way vaguely connected to us. Drowning them seems fine. Bit of poetry, that.
Reach out to the admiral. He seems to be on the wrong side of history. Let's put him on the right one.
Talk with Ferrego's young relative a bit. I bet we could make this conversation go from "threatening dragon arranging my ship to the wild savage lands" and more into "my new friend Viserys sending me off to make a huge ass profit on unexploited vistas".

  • [X] Arrange for his exile, perhaps to the Basilisk Isles where Saan might or might not be able to get some use out of him. Either the man will find his footing and thrive in his own right rather than grasping after an inheritance he does not deserve, or he will fall.
    [X] Agree with the Sealord's suggestions as for the handling of the first two.
    -[X] For Joronar, have Garin deposit the head of his favorite horse on his bed while he is sleeping in it, and a card with a three headed dragon clenched between its teeth. Should be clear enough.

I just don't like the admiral. His attitude reeks of, "Screw you for freeing the slaves! We were supposed to free the slaves!" He literally hired an assassin to gut our envoys. We were downright lucky that Rhaella wasn't harmed. I'm willing to give him one chance. If he refuses, he's dead. Same with Joronar, but that's mainly because the Sealord likely has dwindling family members.

[X] Dealing with Enemies
-[X] The Salt Minister will be killed, perhaps by drowning. Arrange it so that it's vaguely connected to us, but not too much.
-[X] The Admiral will be approached and we will take his measure. We'll decide what to do with him afterwards.
-[X] Drop by and have a chat with Joronar. Make it clear we are not happy with what he tried to do... but at the same time due to who he's related to we're willing to give him a chance. Our realm is growing fast, and as such the economic opportunities grow with it. Suggest he go to the Basilisk Isles and work in collaboration with Lord Salladhor Saan to assess the value of the new part of the realm, and help build it into a proper trading center. This is a chance for him to grow prosperous in his own right.

Perhaps he could become an officer in the fleet of Tolos in their maneuvers against Slaver's Bay. If he proves stubborn and hostile, allow the Sealord to deal with him as he sees fit.
Why not leave him with the Braavosi?
He'll be working for us soon anyway, no point in switching him around fleets to one he doesn't know and that doesn't know him.
 
@Duesal the admiral doesn't care about slavery, any more than any citizen of Braavos does. He's pissed that we're successfully conquering Essos and have taken the Three Daughters, while being merely "pirates"

I get the feeling it's not that he can accept no one but Bravos freeing the slaves, it's that he has a serious hate-boner for pirates, and the Stepstones is technically a pirate kingdom, he can't tolerate a pirate king being that successful.
 
@Duesal Just reword it as "approaching him to take his measure". We can decide what to do with him upon actually conversing with the man.
 
Idea for Azema:
Ardent Dilettante – Class – D&D Tools
I don't think it's mechanically particularly good (not terrible either), but the class does look like a lot of fun.
Is she levelling again?

Honestly, that class is fluffy as hell for her.
The only trouble is that it isn't very good, actually. Check out the prerequisites: she would have to put a lot of ranks in Perform, then spend feats or levels to get exotic weapons proficiency and level 1 arcane spellcasting.

I'm not saying that it's shit: I'm just saying that for the very minor bonuses it gives her, it really isn't worth the prerequisites.

I was thinking of taking her in a different direction next level actually. Less entertainment, more skill.
Lemme find it again...

... Why do we care about him, @Crake? Why do we want to go out of our way to cater to this guy?

Fine. Changing it to this. But I seriously don't get why people want to spare him in the first place. His efforts very nearly got Rhaella killed. And for what? Because we're cleaning up Essos?
 
@DragonParadox

Consensus.

@Duesal I'm not prepared to cater to him, I'm interested to see if he's even worth our time. Killing him out of hand seemed strange since he's an important official in an important Braavosi institution and we should be natural allies. But somehow we're... not?

So I want to know why. Really why. I want to understand.

Fine. Changing it to this.
Please don't.
We have things to do in Braavos without him already, and that would be wasting time, of which we have precariously little for this turn and remaining activities.
Like looting sacrifices and mercury.
Or devils.

Don't kill him off, but I really don't think we should talk to him now.

If we're doing this at all, it's not going to be in half measures. Everything will be done properly and given the appropriate amount of time and attention.
