Not entirely obscure and probably known to learned people, but a random farmer wouldn't know them from Adam and probably just nod and bow. Wouldn't want to offend the gods, after all. <br/><br/>And I'd say most of them wouldn't be happy about it -- it'd be blasphemy to actually try and hurt her over it, I'd imagine, but there's always extremists (well, more extreme extremists, I mean, her temple was pretty cray-cray what with the mass-ritual offering). 'The flame must be freed' might be motivation for an antagonist related to the cult, if you'd like a plot hook. Some wiser and more open-minded followers might endorse it or just think she'd know best what to do.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><br/>Sounds great!  Though I'm sure there's no way we could get some kind of drama or adventure through the fact that she's a runaway godling from an ancient, strange cult secluded away from all of the world. ;)  This is great stuff!  Thanks for posting it!<br/><br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=247429.msg12238425#msg12238425">Quote from: Sain on 13-04-2016, 21:28:38</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I'm not quite sure how much fun it would be to get more xp than the rest via race. It'll just mean Phelypsis is every now and then one level ahead and every now and then even. The fluff itself on Outsider would be alright, but the mechanics don't really translate into anything cool. I can understand the idea behind the race option and what the writer was trying to do with it (encourage players to flesh out role after character gen), but honestly that will not be an issue here ;D I'll try to think of suggestions for better effect while defining her race.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>One quick thing to note with Dungeon World is that character level is not quite as static as you may think, nor does leveling up necessary make you much more powerful!  While there DEFINITELY are some advances that straight up make you better, some of the advancement is also adding more options for characters.  Additionally, XP is given for failed rolls rather than defeating monsters (you learn from where you mess up!) so party level can sometimes not be even, which is okay within the system. I can see what you mean, if that's not interesting for you then we can play around with it!<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=247429.msg12238425#msg12238425">Quote from: Sain on 13-04-2016, 21:28:38</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: Verdana;"><br/>If we go with classic guild halls or something maybe ours could be the private half of </span></span><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">some brothel/inn</div><div class="spoiler_body"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">(http://orig03.deviantart.net/e8a7/f/2014/178/6/1/bg_illust___dungeon_and_fighter_by_u_ra_cil-d7o6fjd.jpg)</span></div></div><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">. Maybe the innkeeper and our characters have an agreement about them getting leads and rumors from the inn keep or something like that? I'm imagining these 'central lands' with proper fantasy civilization are some distance away from the tribal demon lands. Maybe we have some kind of big kingdom or powerful city where more or less all races come together and are kept somewhat civil due to some great power? Maybe whoever is king wields some potent artifact, ooor  they just have really nice army.</span></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;"><br/><br/><br/>I also was figuring there'd be some kind of a city that would be your home base of operations.  Gotta have somewhere to hang your hat and your trophies at the end of the day!  I'm cool with a private half of some brothel or inn.  Any other suggestions or support/descent?<br/><br/>My plan with the guild hall as a whole is for it to create some continuity between adventures.  My hope is that the five of you awesome people will be a long-standing, enduring company that we can have a bunch of adventures with, but I also recognize that Play by Post is often ephemeral.  So next party that starts up?  Another group out of Delver's Company, another chance to add trophies, features, or wonderful magical things to the guild hall.  Maybe someday even set up a Delver's Company Guild Hall thread for slower paced, relaxation and fraternization!</span><br/><br/>(I'm getting a little better at organizing things, I think!  Let me know if my font is coming in funky or if it's not clear!)
