I really like that there's no massive freebies. That actually always bums me out when anime/manga/etc do that kind of thing, since the early progression is a really important establishing point and it tends to make the protagonist just seem like they cheesed their way up with exploits or something.

I also really like that it'll be as minimal canon characters as possible and is removed from the canon time period, as I've played a few things that weren't and while it was still fun a lot of the time it was definitely messy and weird and more than a bit dumb dealing with the canon cast.

One other thing I really like is the little notes about trying to keep some of the slight realism things in mind - I've played in DnD campaigns where I'm the only one who pays attention to my supplies and rations and all that, and the DM's never try to enforce it at all, so it just feels kinda pointless. I think it'd be nice having, even if it's not going to be super strict, things like actually having to pay for food and drink and make sure you do so be a thing.

I'm also a fan of the classes thing, but I don't mind if people want to get rid of it either.

One quick question though is: Since we'll be joining the same familia, did you have one in mind? I'm good with any familia personally, but I am curious!
I'd be very interested in participating in this if you can get enough interest going!
Looking forward to it, and to seeing what they come up with!

That seems more like Drow to me than any goblins I've ever heard of, to be honest.

Edit: To clarify, what I mean is that tons of depictions of goblins are certainly rough and tumble and far from cultured, infighting and such happens, but that sort of plotting, back stabbing stuff is very Drow-y as far as I've ever seen personally. As far as this goes though, from what has been explained so far, it doesn't seem at all like 'just short neanderthals' and the laws list doesn't preclude the goblins from being underhanded, mischievous and sneaky. If anything the way it reads, you have to be a bit smart about it - scam someone out of their goods on a bum trade, instead of just steal outright. Blame someones death on a monster while hunting, instead of just shank them in the street. That kinda thing.

Oh lots, really!

Have you thought up the different gods, what do the goblins know about them, what would be appropriate times to give them offerings, what would be appropriate times to have the Shaman ask for aid from them?

What kind of dangers does the village face in general? Monsters, wolf packs, anything of that sort. Obviously rival tribes and other races being hostile sometimes.

What kind of social problems are there, that Jig might have to weigh in on or experience herself personally? Also mainly just anything that would help Jig do her part in trying to guide the village towards being more prosperous.

Ahhh, Clelk gonna do the markup scam :p

Also I imagined that would be the case as far as Shaman responsibilities. I do have a vague idea of what that entails, but if you have thoughts/details on the subject you can toss at me I'd appreciate it!

As to the Chief, I'd prefer not to be both Shaman and Chief for obvious reasons.

Also excited, though I'm still not entirely sure on personal goals for Jig yet. Probably just try not to mess her job up.

What kinda plans do you have for Clelk?

Oh hey, Larissa also seems fun. Gotta have a local gossip!

Ahh, that makes sense! Also, I've edited in a "items" section on my sheet to keep track of anything noteworthy. Atm just the shaman's hut and the shaman's necklace, and likely to stay that sparse for a good awhile.

Also-Also, fun random trivia! Improper shoes, like the kind people used all the time in the old days and still do sometimes presently, will actually jack your feet up on long walks. It's because the sole is flat and hard, so your foot can't do the stuff it's designed to do properly. So in some ways the goblin's are kinda right.
