I will keep that in mind, If I linked the discord when I referenced it would that work out better?

Discord agreement of the QM. Say that at the start, next time. Discord trumps everything!
I don't like including Faris D'jinn, if he's included why can't other franchises get some of their backstory intertwined with DVV? Or include all of the Duck Comics as well? With Teddy Roosevelt!

This isn't an official DVV story ultimately. Its a quest using the concept as a springboard that has severe departures. If the QM thinks he wants to use something then its ultimately his decision, and he isnt going to let stuff get too bloated.
I understand you not wanting to cross contaminate, but its not too hard to include small things without breaking the setting

Easy solution:
Just have *this* Faris D`Jin be an ancestor of the one that would live in Ducktales´ timeframe - maybe a (grand)son of the mortalized other genie and his human wife?

If it helps Marlin, Faris literally just lives in the middle of nowhere and has no connections to any other character within Duck Tales until the episode he appears in. Transplanting him to this setting would require zero patchwork retconning of his backstory, which is definitely something that should be avoided with outside canon additions. I don't plan on arguing for anything that involves heavy baggage that would have to be crammed into the story half hazardly

Nah, it's fine. The world is an amalgam patch-work of multiple worlds. What one small piece brings does not mean everything else follows, I frequently forget that. We are getting bloated though. We already have enough characters running around (which the QM may not be tracking?). One of the more important ones we have yet to even see is Pope Frollo. Not even a rumor about him or the Mirror Kingdoms. If omake writers can just pick and choose from the modern disney franchises though, or add more characters (like some have done).... Ah, it's a needless concern I guess.

Its not needless. Its Why discussions about who to add should be had at all. If something does go too far its important to be able to discuss it and come to a decision without burning anyone

You want a Frollo Omake? ... okay. Don't say I didn't warn you though.

...Yeah, I never understood why DVV turned FRollo into a *Lich* of all things - no idea how that one was supposed to result from his victory at all.

No, it'd be better to merely let your argument stand on it's own merits instead of bringing the QM into it as a way to browbeat your opponents into backing down.
Okay, I get that you're angry, and you kind of have a right to be, but the passive-aggressive stuff is not called for.

Jeez, I didn't see it as browbeating when I did it, but that's probably because I don't have a ton of experience with forum games.
Marlin, I am sorry if I upset you due to my ignorance. I'll try and defend my points more in isolation from now on.

Browbeating may have been a harsh term to use, but you were essentially going "what you say doesn't matter because the QM already likes the idea".
OK, I currently have 80 XP to use, so I'm going to fully fund bonuses on the following five actions:
Correspond with Jasmine
Off the Edge of the Map
Call of the Wild
Not A Stool Pigeon
Feeling Salty
+15 XP on each of those, should leave me with 5 XP remaining.
Edit: What the heck, put the last five XP onto Making Introductions. Makes recordkeeping a lot easier.

[X] Plan: Salty Introductions
- [X][Martial] Send a Scouting Party (East/West/North/South) to probe defenses.
--[X] North
- [X][Stewardship] Feeling Salty
- [X][Diplomacy] Making Introductions
- [X][Intrigue] Not a Stool Pigeon
- [X][Learning] Tinker, Tailor, Engineer...
- [X][Occult]Call of the Wild
- [X][Personal] Bow Flex
- [X][Personal] Correspond with Jasmine
- [X][Will Personal] Off the edge of the Map
Hmm...
Well the most important ones this time are probably [Stewardship] Feeling Salty, [Diplomacy] Making Introductions, [Intrigue] Not a Stool Pigeon, and [Occult]Call of the Wild.
Salty needs 60 and we start at 26 so like a 2/3 chance with no xp. But we really need that money so it might be worth a push.
Introductions needs 55 and we start at 42 so close to a 9/10. Pretty much set but we won't get a chance at good relations with them again for a while now and I assume the higher roll the better it goes and we only need a roll of 68 to crit so probably worth it if someone wants to. I'd probably leave it alone though.
Pigeon needs 90 and we start at 47. Could definitely use a push. Have to roll 43 or higher to pass.
Call of the Wild needs 85 and we start at 42. So again need to roll 43 to pass. Could use a push.

Since Tireless put 5 on it, you only need to use 10.
In that case, I will put my remaining 5 XP onto the scouting expedition.
You forgot Iago's 23, which puts the bonus at +70.

I have no exp given no omake-writing experience. (And all that stuff is really good anyway.) Call of the Wild is definitely something I'd want Exp on given it's a new hero to work on plant-related activities, of which we have a few low-hanging fruits and high-hanging herbs.

I didn't think it counted as having Iago assigned to it so much as he IS the action. If I'm wrong, so much the better.
Sooo...for those wanting to expand to the satrapies, we are aware that we are an arabic kingdom completely and utterly surrounded by turkic, iranian, and pashtuns?
Worse, we are going to try and do it from Sistan, which is the worst part of Iran to try doing this from on account of it being one of the more inhositabible corners of Iran. Western Iran easily has more people than us and the old centers of Imperial Government.
We will need major reforms to run an empire. And yes: We will need to run an empire if we want the satrapies. We probably eventually have to move our capital someday as well.
