You are a KOBOLD. For months, you have wanted to TRAVEL EAST to faroff lands and see the world. And now, your tribe has asked you to run a caravan to trade with allied gnolls. Your travels across what is known as the Oremor Trail will begin in your secret kobold home, to the fertile Great Wilds - a journey of approximately HUNDREDS OF MILES.

Before you set off, you must register your NAME and OCCUPATION to the record keeper.

You must also state the PARTY SIZE of the caravan, a number from TWO to SIX. While a higher number will help when it comes to MANUAL LABOR needs and UNTIMELY DEMISES not ending the journal prematurely, it will also require MORE FOOD and SUPPLIES to make the trip.

This is a trading caravan, with a mission to trade with allied gnolls, and to deliver a message!

Additional goods will be carried by this wagon, but they are stricly off limits, and will not be appearing in standard inventory. You, with your honor as caravan leader, will never open them except in life or death scenarios.

Flarin will now be "Flava Flav", and wear a fedora. She will also be wearing the disassembled front part of a grandfather clock.
Glilmus will now be "Gil", and wear a Raccoon cap.
Domin will now be "Dom", and wear a fake goatee.
Tlaylder will now be "Chedda", and wear a chef's hat. She will also wear a cat bone earring.

Spectacles would be nice, lest you, Durk Nuuk'erm, be left out of the accessory party. Please choose between spectacles A and spectacles B.

Chedda has begun using your purchased cow (2) to make cheese.

What's Dom's confidence that he can cure this ailment? If he's a n00b... uh, is there any way we can just wait here and send someone back to fetch a healing mage? Or at least some herbs? Losing a few hours on the first day so that someone doesn't ~die~ is probably a good idea. Besides, the "Rest" option generally takes a lot of time anyways...

Alternatively, if that's not really an option, take a rest break while hunting and looking for herbs simultaneously. If possible. How hardcore OT is this?!

lovely. since cholera is the kind of disease that kills you by making you pee all of your nutrients and bodily liquids out of your ass, you should have Gil eat a lot, and even more importantly drink a lot. in fact, fill all your empty containers with water from the river now and have Gil drink more than he needs.

No, that's retarded. The circulatory system CIRCULATES. Sucking the venom is only surefire if you drain ALL his blood, and widening wounds is a terrible idea. Put a tourniquet 2-4 inches above the bite. Keep him calm. Don't give him food or water, that speeds up the absorption of venom. Keep him still.

You apply your BOOT to the snake, and have Chedda cook it up and apply Rattlesnake Cheese Stew to Dom's Snakebite.

If no ferry is available, initiate Operation Cockfloat.

We should also assume we'll get dragged downstream a bit no matter what happens. Depending on how bad things are downstream, we might want to go upstream a good amount before floating across.

Also, distribute bolds and trade goods around wagon in the best way possible to maintain good balance. And don't let any of them rock the boat, or by god you're going to rip off their cute little heads and shit down their cute little fuzzy necks till EVERYONE is blowin' it out their ass.

You have no skill in sneak, and sneaking around isn't your style. You have Bi do that.
You go to the front door to TRADE.

>"Hey, 'bold. You want to trade? We've got rations, Oxen Feed, bottles of cure poison and bottles of cure disease, and weapons of all sorts."

You offer TWENTY THREE (32) chunks of masterwork cheese.

>"Uh.. okay, we're not used to taking so much cheese, but that is good! Here's what we're willing to trade for cheese. And those are some good grandfather clocks you had in there! I'm willing to count one grandfather clock as 15 pieces of your cheese, if you're willing to toss those in."

You use your TWO (2) marble chewtoys (steel) to seduce the goblin. As a BERSERKER PACKIN' BOLD AND A HALF, you get a bonus to this check.

She says that it has been awhile since her tower has had outside company, and offers that if you REST here for THREE (3) days, she'll throw in an additional Bottle of Cure Disease, and FORTY (40) copper pieces, at which point the deal may be finalized. Also, all party members (and oxen) will be fed during the stay without having to use party supplies.

You take a look at the killed wounded ox to see about differentiating the two. It is merely wounded.
Bi fought alongside you, and managed to go unscathed.

Dom dresses all of the wounds. He is now a wound dresser (competent).
Bi uses his Native (Professional) to perform a healing ritual. You're pretty sure it isn't doing a thing, but Chedda smiles, so you aren't going to piss in her gnollflakes.
Dom claims that continually moving may be dangerous for Chedda, but staying here may result in more gnoll attacks.
Lawra Crauft says the river is two days away, and the gnolls won't follow us past the river. She says we're in danger until we cross the river.

I dunno, we've got 10 days of food left. Let's not attract attention while we're at a standstill. We could get hit by a war party. If we go hunting it should be right when the wagon is ready to go again.

You decide to allow the gnolls another day of living, and go back with a single rabbit for a rabbit stew dinner. Despite your efforts, you are not able to telepathically spawn 100 buffalo, but you were always one for taking life, not making it.

Bi says there is no forge or tools or anything to use the spinning rims to make a metal wheel, bitching or otherwise.

You spend the day talking with your wimminz and for some reason Bi is there too. You toke up the remaining unidentified herbs, and do other stuff like strip poker and whatever else people do on wagon trips. It sure would be something if gnolls attacked right now.

...but they don't come. Gnollflakes did a good job of avoiding them.

Lawra Crauft finishes the next day, and you continue onward.

You arrive at your destination. You are certain this is the place, and Gnollflakes said there used to be a clan here, but there are no gnolls.

You'd rather not pin the crime of arson on a tumbleweed.

It would appear that the gnolls must have had some warning before they had to leave, although not so much that they brought everything. There are still gnollish swords and shields, and some valuables by way of coin, crafts and non-essentials. You find 12 gold pieces, various crafts and tools, and what have you.

The question is, what now? Flava Flav says they have been gone for at least a week. It would be difficult to track them down. You may....

Attempt to track them.
Go back home.
Settle here.
Go wherever you please and please wherever you go as a traveling caravan.

Wait, settling is an option? Not sure we have the people to ensure genetic diversity..

Rest here for a bit and have Lawra make a couple of spare wheels and axles. When done, you might as well track them down.

Genetic diversity is never a problem with Durk Nuuk'erm.

You attempt to track them, resting in the abandoned camp. You spend 3 days like this, in which Lawra is able to craft 2 spare wagon wheels and 1 spare wagon axle.
Flava Flav says there are lots of tracks around going in all directions, it is nearly impossible for her to tell which way they went, or if they split up or not. There is little in the ways of clues, as gnolls were not known for their record keeping. It looks like there might have been a battle involved, but Gnollflakes says all gnoll residences look like a battle took place.

Best timestamp.

Also, ask Gnollflakes if there are any clans friendly to this one in the vicinity. If there were, odds are that's where they'd head.

Also, see if you can find the largest concentration of "new" tracks.

We're not afraid of ADVENTURE.

What do you know of the gnolls you were allied with? Perhaps some searching and diplomacy with neighboring tribes will tell you more
As long as Gnollflakes tells you which ones will least likely fight and more likely speak.

Fuck. Let's go hunting, and capture one of the gnolls alive. Interrogate them and ask if they know anything.

Also we're going to have trouble with rations for Gnollflakes aren't we, if we keep hunting gnolls for food?

Gnollflakes says she'll eat the gnoll rations if she must, it's simply preference that she doesn't.

You go west, following some of the tracks. Luck is on your side, as you reach a clearing, where some gnolls have set up camp. You are prepared to hunt them, but after a talk, they are part of the allied gnolls. All you know is that their leader was called 'Clamp,' which proved to be enough.

You proceed to trade miscellaneous goods for miscellaneous goods, using your Haggling (Talented) on the other gender to get prime deals. You also give the message to pass on to Clamp.

They offer for 1 copper per food ration as well, and you can rest here, talk, or move on.

She says she isn't entirely sure what was happened, she was on a hunting trip. She is on her way to a meetup zone, where she will deliver these supplies, and thanks you. She adds that for the record, the meetup zone is supposed to be a secret, and she won't show anyone who involves themselves with other gnolls.

You buy 160 rations for 1 gold and 6 silver.

With built up resistance to snake bites, cholera and dysentery, and skill and knowledge with crossing rivers, you are certain that the trip back home will be a piece of cake. Would you like to go home and finish the mission?

Well, this is a toss-up. On one paw, you want to complete your mission quick. On the other, you want to make damn sure that this message gets to Clamp. You don't want Gil and Dom's deaths to be in vain if this little gnoll encampment misses the meeting somehow.
You could give Gnollflakes enough rations to get her back to her clan, and send her on her way. Maybe give her back some of the coin you looted from her deceased comrades. Then this pack of gnolls might take you to their meeting place.

The gnoll insists you not follow, and assures you that she will get the goods to Clamp.

You don't have particular reason to see their chief personally, and you believe she is telling the truth.

With that, you have no reason to stick around, and head back. You report a very successful mission back home, and use much of your gold to purchase the wagon for your personal use.

You ended the mission with 6 members in good health, and more supplies than you began with, and all 3 grandfather clocks.

Your rank is King of the Caravans.

With your own wagon and party members, you head out again for new ADVENTURE.
