That can only be answered by the Oracle called mbl.can we?

I was joking but thats a good question.

Also oh great oracle, can I break of stalactites and use them for arrowheads?

[Drakel]

Team black, I had an idea that we could use the cave as our own personal shelter. It'll make a great base, it's already built for us and should be easy to remodel into it so why not, right?

Also, Great oracle MBL I know that WE, the servants of the great god of blackness can not physically move our great shrine that you have provided to us, but can our god move it for us instead should we pray hard enough?

[Vordak]

And yet another question.

Is it okay to ask other players of a favor OOC, or should it neccesarily be an IC action?

IC is just commands, all discussion happens here. For example when I asked Alphakoka to come adventuring with me it wasn't a command, we talked about it here and he simply commanded it.

[Vordak]

Ah, good. Im planning to craft some some weaponary for the tribe - actualy, that is exactly what we need the clay and pebbles for - and if anybody is willing to help, i could also use some strudy branches to make the pole.

To questions about summoning: So I am thinking creating new entities entirely will be something that relies on your god's strength, and right now your god isn't super ridiculously powerful as far as gods go, so it isn't really capable of creating entities other than you at the moment. As your group grows in power, your god will grow in power as well and learn summonings (Plus they're summoning magic for you all to learn as well anyways). So, no, not right now.

About the rocks: Sure you could collect the stalactites/mites, but there are also loose rocks around the cave for you grab.

About Shrines: Nope, you can't move them, god can't move them, sux2bu. You'll learn to manage them later, but like I said before, they don't go down easy, got god magic protecting them, and that cave is maybe 2 turns travel away from the shrine, unless shit got totally overrun your shrine wouldn't go down before someone could travel from the cave to it (Though you probably shouldn't leave it completely unguarded at night).

[Vordak]

Sorry to pester you mbl, but you've left a question of mine unanswered. :(
May i know how much would transforming a wood&stone tool into iron cost, and just how much PP do i cut down by doing so instead of summoning a ready-made iron tool?

Alright so we can do stuff in shifts. Have maybe 1 or 2 people guarding the shrine at night and everyone else can set up camp in the cave. Maybe have the guards be in the trees or something.

2 questions mbl. First, if we manage to light a fire, how long will it burn for?

Second if I were to gather rocks to make stone tipped arrows it would take two turns correct? One to collect and one to combine?

I see... Is there enough wood to build a temple around our Shrine and still have extra trees laying around?

Um... yeah? You've got like 5 trees if you count the one on the cliff.

Cool....

We need the dagger next to Nat's corpse to be collected by someone who's willing to join Nargle on a trip to the east. If you grab it and you don't want to head with Nargle to the east, give it to someone who does.

If anyone on white wouldn't mind, I'd love assistance with the prayer. I've decided that my being spawned with a talisman is a sign that Her Holy Light wants me to be her Priest. I'm aware that prayer may be inefficient for gathering supplies and equipment right now, but we'll be both building Her Holy Light's strength and possibly increasing my PP rate in case we really need to pray for something in the future.

BTW: Her Holy Light is now the official name for team white's God. His Holy Light is also acceptable.

I just subtract the PP worth of the tool you are upgrading from the cost of making the tool you are upgrading it to. Unless it is a type of tool that would take a lot of resources to make, Wood will generally be worth 1 PP, Stone 2PP, Iron 5PP. So upgrading from wood to iron costs 4PP, upgrading from stone to iron costs 3PP.

Fires will be either indefinitely or for at least for a very long time, unless put out.

Yes, it will take two turns. Plus in the turn you are collecting stones you should probably take the sticks out of your inventory slot, as per the rules about inventory slots that I think you already know.

Also lololol, I forgot to say what item Svenn spawned with, which was rather important. I've edited it into the turn 7 update, so white team people might want to check it out.

Yepp I remember. If you remove something from inventory you can't do an action with it the same turn.

[Vordak]

Okay, i get it. But what would a chimera such as a stone knob studded wooden handle club be worth in PP?

[The Nexerus]

Change of plans, team white. We're getting ready for a swim trip.

Nargle, the arrows are yours. I'd recommend fashioning some tips for them.

[Vordak]

Hoho! Looks like we better prepare our asses foreheads for some praying.

[Holmishire]

Nex, I'll join you in prayer, but I'll probably leave for adventure after this upgrade. ;]

[Svenn]

Wait... what happens when the scroll is turned into a book?

See.

You'll learn spells through scrolls (Single use item that will teach one person a spell) or spell books (Endless use item that can keep teaching people the spell), or you can be taught them by NPCs.
