Re: GM Questions
I need some adjudication here. Namely, do I still count the rolls made, do I just count the Earth roll to (fail to) resist Taint, do I count neither, or what?

Re: GM Questions
Your roll is at +10 because of the Jade, as noted in the announcements, so you would have made it if you'd needed it. You don't need the rolls, you're saved and can leave the water immediately this round. Takako just needs to get out next round.Seppun Dawei wrote: ↑Tue May 26, 2020 1:51 amI need some adjudication here.

Is there something I can do to drag Takako with me?

Sorry for the double post, but Ninube is scouting the Wetlands. Not sure if anything is needed, but the description implies it may be useful, so dropping this here.

Re: GM Questions
One of the books lists crossbow as 5 koku for cost. Can I assume that is appropriate for crafting? I passed the "invention" check, so I'd like to start making one.

Re: GM Questions
You know what we need? More crafting questions. Just in case.
How much slots would it take to change a rabbit pelt into a simple hat or vest with a good old Craft: Tailoring/Intelligence roll? What would be the TN? What for a more complex design like gloves? Can we assume that a rabbit pelt is a material we can easily put our hands on as cooking rubbish?
EDIT: Bonus related question

Re: GM Questions
No. Crossbows take a long time to build realistically, and a longer time to develop. They also require some fairly small fiddly metal bits. I'm willing to give it to you to invent it post game, but it's not really within the scope of this one.Seidou Satone wrote: ↑Tue May 26, 2020 10:44 pmOne of the books lists crossbow as 5 koku for cost.

Like two slots, TN 15 for simple clothing. 3 and TN 20 for gloves. Yes, rabbit pelts are easy to come by. Tanning in this situation is harder but doable.Jiyo Ayumu wrote: ↑Wed May 27, 2020 4:33 amYou know what we need? More crafting questions. Just in case.

Is it possible for those of us who discovered the mutated dhole to report that finding to the Kami without need of a thread (since I assume they're kind of the de facto leaders of the expedition)?
