sorry have been unable to do much posting here in ooc, internet is spotty at the moment with the provider upgrading our entire area and making repairs in the fibre [seems spots have been partly damaged]<br/><br/>anyway on a spolier arc...considering Elisabeth is a big part of the current story I would love having an idea where it is meant to go and be able to write toward that goal. I mean if she ended up pregenat from some monster or gets cleaned up and healed only to be carried off...having that idea is something that can guide the story...at the moment I have no idea what will happen and as a writer for this it leaves things very much in the air.<br/><br/>Consider it this way, if it was a one on one scene the writer would normally have some idea of where the scene was headed and waht could be expected just so they could add in hints and forbodenings at the conclusion slides toward them. Ciosa and I discussed the scene we did in extreme boucing idea back and forth based on Elisabeth's nightmare and Teddy and it was much easier to write and came out great. So a spoiler and some discussion in occ on how to get there. I do not think would hurt the story and would move it along.<br/><br/>as for bounty maybe a sliding scale...ie to get the next level costs the number it is going to ie for elisabeth to get a lvl 5 apothecary would cost 5 bounty... meaning lower levels are easier to get but it gets harder and harder as one grows in an aptitude. That would mean gettinga  level one is costs only one...oh yes and if you buy 2 levels the cost adds together so going from a 1 to a 3 is 5 bounty.<br/><br/>I would do traits as the next level +1 so going from a 4 to a 5 costs 5+1=6<br/><br/>edges and hinderaces i am not exactly sure ...maybe the point value to get rid of a Hinderance but 2x the point value to get and edge?? after all I would hate to suddenily be able to give elisabeth dinero 5 for just 5 bounty.<br/><br/>Phaia
