Game: Gnome Town

@ForsakenBySleep you reassign the cloud watcher to craft bricks. you congratulate yourself for a job well done and decide to build the Healer's hut tommorrow.
@Gendarme You know farming is a thing that exists, but you have no idea how to go about researching it. Perhaps if you could attract a wise man to the village, he would know. But he'd need somewhere to live.
@Kassarock You forage for food and bring back some very tasty mushrooms that almost have a meaty flavour.
@Duthguy you gather some mud with your eyes closed, just to show off to the workers.

One of the foragers comes back mute and dazed. He can still work, but without a healer it's hard to know what's wrong with him.

@rush99999 thanks for the heads up, i wasn't sure if you wanted the edge of the cemetery nearby or not. I'll update my post

[5E] Peasants of Mass Destruction

<sup>The dwarf looked down at Thel'dek in surprise, scratching under his neck thoughtfully. If he took afront to a kobold speaking to him, it didn't show on his face. "Well, the Mage's Guild wants them accounted for. But perhaps you can get on their good side and they'll let you keep them. They're an enigmatic sort of lot and don't always keep track of their magical inventions, so I wouldn't be surprised. A little above my paygrade though, I'm afraid. I would suggest you start buttering them up once you're settled in to your new work." His eyes crinkled as he turned to look thoughtfully at the dwarf unpacking some of the boxes.

"You wouldn't happen to be a gent named Einkil would you? Scuse my manners, I haven't seen many dwarves in Swampmuck and my cousin Theldrik went on and on about your booze from when he travelled this way last." Seeing his kinsfolk raise the wand, his face broke out in a big grin and he rubbed his hands together. "That's the spirit! Here, let me give you some pointers." He reached into the open crate and pulled out another wand, giving it a quick look over before pointing it carefully at a nearby bush.

"It's good to have a target," he explained, and then muttered something under his breath you couldn't quite make out. He squinted one eye and fired, three brilliant balls of blue light zipping towards the target. The crowd ooe'd and ahh'd as the magic missiles fizzled out of existence moments later, the bush looking worse for wear. He turned to face Thel'dek, the wrinkles around his eyes smoothing out.

"The magic feels a little funny but I hear you get used to it. Why don't you have a go there, fella?" he said, offering the kobold a fresh wand as he dropped the other back into the crate absentmindedly.

The crowd had gone awfully quiet. No one was looking at the frayed bush anymore. The dwarf's clothes sagged around him as he scratched absently at a pimple on his face. The middleaged fellow had regressed in age, his hair growing more vibrant in colour, his ears shrinking and his wrinkles fading away. Before you stood a dwarf on the cusp of manhood, totally unaware of how he looked.

That didn't stop him spotting the two humans on the edge of the crowd however, one tall enough to see over the bobbing heads. "Ayye! he called, "No need to be shy, it's unbecoming of a man of your size. My gosh, they do build them strong out here in the Swamp, ey? You're exactly the type of folk who I'm looking for! I'll get an earful if I don't at least try to convince you to take this work from the Mage's Guild. Come hither," he waved a hand to call them over, but the peasants were starting to whisper among themselves as his voice broke midway through the sentance.</sup>

The crowd is stunned by what they have just seen but they will recover soon and act quickly.

You can roll perception to try to hear what the dwarf was saying or to see which wand is the one he dropped into the crate if you were close enough to see where it went. You can roll insight towards the dwarf or crowd to get more information about their state.

You can roll other abilities as well depending on what you'd like to do, I'm still gauging how much encouragement to give for this group, although I'm assuming we'll end up chugging along once we settle into the swing of things. If you're unsure, let me know OOC and I can give you more info :D

@Necroes Add 14 x Wands to your inventory unless Einkil drops them or puts them in the crates.

Happy belated 30th to @POOHEAD189! Hope you had an awesome day.

It's been 2 weeks since my last GM post so I'll upload the next one later today. I'm still super pumped to read @VeyrinDay Bagnaria's coccoon post and I don't want to make it more difficult for you since this round was a pretty big post, let me know if there's anything I can do to help. Feel free to combine it with this round if it's easier, or we can do a collab. There's no time limit to get it finished so take as long as you need on it.

I'm expecting this round to be a little lighter on info and heavier on rolls so looking forward to seeing what y'all do ;D

[5E] Peasants of Mass Destruction

@rush99999 Tasha's Cauldron is one i don't have, any good?

[5E] Peasants of Mass Destruction

@Necroes 1d20 + int since he's still trying to use it like a wand. You can either make a dice campaign or use an old one if you have one

[5E] Peasants of Mass Destruction

@Dark Cloud excellent! looks like this show is on the road

@Necroes +wis if Einkil's using it inappropriately to stir a pot or something, +int if he's genuinely trying his best to be magical. Technically with magic missile you're supposed to have a target, but I like this way better.

[5E] Peasants of Mass Destruction

@rush99999 I too take umbridge with woodsworth's fancy chicken. How dare they show Swampmuck up!

In all seriousness you can ignore the internal monologuing that doesn't suit your character. I'll be playing up how backwater Swampmuck is at every opportunity for flavour ;D

[5E] Peasants of Mass Destruction

@rush99999 true, I love an open game though so I always feel a little weird at the start.

Arguably you could throw your players in media res into a combat or a castle getting raided and see how they deal with it... actually, i think that's how hoard of the dragon queen kind of starts? but on the outside of the castle.
