[OOC] Forgotten Realms: Tales of the Dead

[Sigil]

These things happen. Will be around.

[DMZ]

I hope it was worth the wait.

Learning a great many things by watching you write and someone DMing a D&D game, trying to immediately apply them to the game we are playing.

I know of pelmeni! Russian version of pirogi. Not that I'm really into eastern European food, but it's one of those things that's in damn near every culture on the planet, one form or another. Kinda like forcemeat.

[DMZ]

The pirogi you and I know are two different things, it seems.

[Sigil]

I mean to say that forcemeat is in most cultures worldwide, and separately that pirogi and pelmeni are similar.

[DMZ]

Forcemeat sounds like something Storm troopers would eat.

[Sigil]

I really hadn't thought about that one before. Makes sense, though.

The Forcemeat Unleashed.

[DMZ]

Going to need one more day to properly work out what I'm going to do here.

[Sigil]

No worries. Chilling with scotch, Turkey, and in-laws anyway.

[Sigil]

It's kind of funny you'd mention turning tea into ale in the IC. I've got one of those pre-packaged brewing kits (a gift), one of the first things I did with it was turn a batch of Sweet Tea into beer.

It was glorious. Absolutely inspired; one of the best ideas I've had in a very long time. Two gallons of moderate to strong, bitter and sweet, textured brown ale; the flavor was everything I remember from the culture of my upbringing - but with booze. The alcohol was smooth to hit and smooth to leave, blending organically with the black tea and notes of brown sugar, with just the right amount of carbonation. It was art. It was science mixed with a religious experience.

Problem being, Keystone doesn't have a home brewing kit. It'd be simple enough to make one with things found in the marketplace, provided he wouldn't also want to distill. If you'd be willing to cover that under a Cooking Proficiency, I'm up for it. Sadly though, I must recognize the fact that I know things my character does not, and vice versa. More's the pity.

[DMZ]

Sadly, Faerun does distinguish between Brewing and Cooking, so the best I can do is give you an advantage if you ever want to learn brewing.
Nice avatar.

[Sigil]

Nah, that's one of his "retirement proficiencies". He's going to need all available slots to pay for developing martial arts techniques.

And thanks. Always did like classic Red Mage.

[DMZ]

Still around, but real life is a mean thing to deal with. Going to post tomorrow.

[Sigil]

No worries. Do what you've got to.

[DMZ]

I'll attempt to revert back to a 24 hour posting rate.

[Sigil]

Real life is one of those things that takes some priority over the imaginary lives (however nifty they may be) of the characters and settings we generate. If it's inconvenient do keep a 24 hour posting rate going, I'm not going to hold it against you. Lord knows the only reason I'm as active as I am on here is because I'm killing time between catering stretches and odd hours.

[DMZ]

Yay for the return of the 24 hours posting rate(for now).

[DMZ]

Internet fixed, post up.

[DMZ]

Well, happy freaking new year...

I am never starting a new job after new years again.

[Sigil]

My own field of employment has similar pitfalls after the holidays. Funfunfun.

Anyway... CS edited for change in equipment and finances.
