Hello all, I am a new player to the server, enjoying it quite a bit, playing a character who is a Witch of Rashemen (currently Sorc 3/FS 3/MT 8), taking her Dajemma (a rite of passage for Rashemi people where they travel as far as they want to to learn of the world around them) in Sigil. After talking to some players and DM Iggwilv I was told of the possibility of player driven events, and an IC conversation with a merchant PC gave me the idea of a "business trip" to Nyelthruna's homeland to contact the witches, buy some Jhuild (firewine) and bring it to be sold experimentally in Sigil, for a possible import contract so said merchant PC would have an exclusive (for the moment) product in her list of wares. There are 3 PCs involved so far, Nyelthruna (my Witch) can probably get more involved as well if the event is even possible. So I would like to know if any DM/EM is interested in running it if the event is possible and welcome in the server (if the DM/EM would like, I could try my best and help with the lore involved) This is the product we are talking about (which could be just renamed Wine or a new beverage for the server, if there is enough interest): Jhuild (Firewine) This dark reddish brew is made or certain grapes, fruits, and herbs grown near the city of Urling. It is a common drink for wealthier berserkers. Like alcoholic drinks, jhuild is technically a poison, and a character who drinks it must succeed on a Fortitude saving throw (DC 12) to avoid its effect; those who desire it may voluntarily fail this saving throw. Upon drink firewine, the character takes 2 point of temporary Wisdom damage. One minute later, the drinker gains a +2 bonus to Strength, which lasts for 2 hours. Once the Strength bonus wears off, the user must make another Fortitude saving throw (DC 20) or immediately fall unconscious for 3d4 hours. Whether or not that save succeeds, the user takes a -2 penalty on attacks, saves, and checks for the next 12 hours. It is not possible to become addicted to jhuild or overdose on it (although a person might incapacitate himself by drinking enough to reduce his Wisdom score to 0). A bottle of jhulld costs 70 gp in Rashemen, but in other countries, it can cost 100 gp or more because of its scarcity. Non-berserkers are usually content to drink a weakened form of firewine diluted with ale, which sells for 2 sp a tankard in Rashemen, 7 to 15 gp elsewhere. This weak brew has almost the same flavor as the real drink but does not grant a Strength bonus or cause unconsciousness. Visitors to Rashemen who believe themselves accustomed to jhuild are surprised to find they have been drinking the diluted version. This causes no end of amusement to the Rashemi, especially in a drinking contest with a berserker. |

Welcome and hello! I'll fix you something appropriate. Rashemen is a very interesting place. Give me a few days to think something up and I'll get back to you. |

Absolutely, and thank you very much! Any idea on the number of players you would be comfortable/prefer to play with? I was holding onto RPing the idea too much before someone showed interest. Again thank you very much and let me know if I can anything to help. |

Is sunday a good time for you and the others involved? Don't mind a large crowd for this one. But it must be kept realistic. No races the Rashemi would kill on sight and so on. Send a PM if there is additional elements you wish to include. |

PM sent Krayt, and again thank you very much for taking interest in the idea. I would also like to extend the invitation for the event to any player who reads this thread, we can arrange our characters to meet OOC and if you show interest in participating, I will make sure to mention the trip IC and we can try and work something out from there. |

I would like to thank everyone who took part in the event today, which at some point had 11 players! EM Krayt takes the cake for being probably the most patient person in the world, as well as very skilled in setting mood, giving narrative and creating a fun environment for us to play our trip in. I cannot express in words how much I appreciate the attention everyone gave to this, so I will try a simple THANK YOU |

I must agree, for the size it was, it went remarkably smoothly. Witch made it all that more pleasurable. |

Idle gossip in the Grand Bazaar would point the fledgeling witch towards having a chat with one Lady Vand'hovar. Word would have it that she has something of a past with the Rashemi and the Wychlarren. Given the insular nature of the sisterhood of witches, it is difficult to imagine what dealings an elf might have had with them. Should Nyelthruna prove curious, it is off said that Lucelle Vand'hovar is rarely difficult to find... |
