It's being held in reserve, basically. For monsters slain, they'd get half XP value. That's assuming *no one* knows, or those that know are PCs with a strict order to never blab to anyone. If you have hirelings, you can pretty much expect them to blab unless they are fanatically loyal and ordered not to.Talysmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02162328521343832412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7239577512598038009.post-61969640550982804312013-02-06T13:28:47.349-08:002013-02-06T13:28:47.349-08:00Fifth of Scotch = Potion of Delusion.Fifth of Scotch = Potion of Delusion.Talysmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02162328521343832412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7239577512598038009.post-71428849748704381032013-02-06T10:22:05.944-08:002013-02-06T10:22:05.944-08:00I have no issue with the simple mechanic of XP for...I have no issue with the simple mechanic of XP for GP.<br /><br />I do have a few questions for you. Have you ever had a player that wanted to keep their wealth and reputation a secret?<br />Are they stuck at level 1, because of they don't want people to know how much gold they have or how many orcs they've slain?burnedfxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04698632807214685951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7239577512598038009.post-76262062839065887702013-02-06T09:46:20.519-08:002013-02-06T09:46:20.519-08:00I like this concept. certainly explains Beowulf, o...I like this concept. certainly explains Beowulf, or the bard that takes "artistic license" with his mighty deeds. Not sure how I would handle the effect of a smear campaign against someone. <br /><br />Actually, come to think of it, this is an excellent advancment system for domain level play. Kings and great wizards do not gain levels by adventuring underground and risking their lives, they gain experience by making peasents be in awe of them. Tales of the great army they raised, of the long siege undertaken or survived, of how just their judgment is. That is the source of their strength. Fear and respect breeds confidence.Neophagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13247333156099274102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7239577512598038009.post-72686282986997640772013-02-06T07:47:13.566-08:002013-02-06T07:47:13.566-08:00It's just occurring to me now: if you're e...It's just occurring to me now: if you're equating level and confidence, can you gain a quick couple of levels by downing a fifth of scotch?<br /><br />Certainly seems to make some people much more confident in their abilities!Charles Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00941603544547428940noreply@blogger.com
