A.K.A Marius Ludstrom

I started with a dream of doing something on the Council.
And lo, something on the Council I did.

I also wanted to try out a Relic Guardian.
Lo, did I also do that thing.

I didn't get too many screenshots or any DM loot, so I'll just get some nice backstory in good ol' spoiler tags.

[hide="Background"]Kyle was a young man from Waterdeep turned desperate scavenger in the Darkening. He survived for a good few years by merit of little except luck, and one black day he was searching a village to add anything to his dwindling food stocks, or maybe even anybody to help him that wouldn't die within the hour. He found it deserted and looted by Cyricists who had murdered the few citizens left behind, leaving horrid reminders in every house in the form of skulls pinned to the walls.

A thrall almost snuck up on him, but he soundly escaped into the course of a much larger shambling horde. As if from nowhere came a man who appeared to have weathered a landslide in his armour, who began to thin the herd and stand in defense over the fatigued Kyle, but closer and closer drew a presence of dread. After multiple retreats, the mindflayer accompanying the horde broke the man, leaving him to be ripped apart by the scores of mindless beasts.

Kyle heard a faint hum behind him and saw a portal, and scrambled hurriedly towards it. His companion uttered his final words; "I am Marius Ludstrom, Servant of Vigilance, Worthless Nothing. Take me." Kyle looked back only to be met with the tangible glare of the mindflayer. As he shot back into the portal, his mind went blank, and his last moments played on repeat...

I am Marius Ludstrom, Servant of Vigilance, Worthless Nothing.

Herald says "you're a prefect, have a free sending" when she should say Councilor (house of governance- the other heralds just refuse to give me free things, which is despicable)

Stadium backroom is inaccessible to all but the Stadium Councilor, and is also populated by black guildsmen.

Suggestions / Stadium Backroom
September 14, 2017, 02:33:35 PM
Self-serving, but: the backroom of the Stadium is inaccessible to anyone but the owner, and inside are some black guild card players! Any chance for just some adventurers in there, and making the entry token a 500gp 'Pass Coin' you buy from Marvin Pond (proceeds hopefully going to the Councilor maybe?)? It could definitely be a cool meeting spot for secret dealings, games of chance or otherwise.

If you're poking around there too, the office is just a little hammock and some key cupboard. Any chance for renovation? I could pay... lacking storage is not great for me.

I love the idea of tinkering. I also love the idea that there should be subjects.

Maybe make it so you can gather some machine scrap and craft a 'Shock Scrambler' that confuses an animatron's friend or foe circuits, and makes it dominated for 30 minutes! You get a little ooc token to represent it in crafting that is lost when it undominates or dies, but you can bring the animatron to a tinkering bench and do all sorts of stuff.

Make it yours for the reset and start tinkering with it like necromancers with undead (pack up and let loose like a catapult pack maybe?), extract its power core safely for more experimenting, etc!

It points you to the left arm if you try to sit in it. I'd sure love to sit in it, but not sideways.

Perma-suits were also changed to 50 favour recently, but the mannequin wasn't renamed. No bug, just an omission.

Spithiwick Nurb in the House of Governance talks about Prefects and the Directorate. Also Prefectures, which I guess are... territories now?

Bug Reports / Mechanical Bed Bugs

I slept in a Dunwarren bed thingo. Now I can rest in weird places (possibly everywhere) and after I rest, I always get regenerating.

Note: this has passed through rest, but not reset (yet)

The 'Welcome to Sanctuary' recordings just on the left as you enter the House of Governance have an option to talk about the Directorate, and then do it.

Suggestions / Medicine Kit Utility
June 02, 2017, 08:11:38 PM
Make it easier to stuff medicine kits by
1) having the ability to put bundles in at a time
2) making it a player tool? choose kit, and then just click all of the herbs you want to put in.
It would be way faster if either or both of these happened.
