Performer Static
Posted: Sun Jun 15, 2014 6:16 am
At some point there will be a static available somewhere in MS (or multiple somewheres). (I'm sure Castano will advise where and when). It will be in the form of a candelabra that triggers a conversation, which makes it possible for a PC to entertain, in the hopes for a tip, busking style. How it is intended to work (please let me know if it doesn't)...
Click on the candelabra to trigger a "conversation". It is only possible to attempt a performance during "night". This reflects there being more evening traffic in the inns and a cozy level of drunkenness to take the horrid edge off your wailing. The candelabra is how the PC may select what performance s/he is going to take a stab at.
Possibilities are...
Drum
Flute
Lute
Dance
Act (mime)
Comedy (joke)
Oratory (chanting)
Singing
Your first attempt (in any category) is the one that allows for a possible reward. After a first attempt in any of the non singing/non-chanting categories you will not get another shot until the next evening. No one wants to hear you playing your bongos all night, or doing standup. Sorry. They will however tolerate you singing/chanting more than one song.
Difficulties should be tiered (15/20/25/30). Rewards are (xp 2,4,6,8 and gp 1,3,6,18). You get nothing for failing, make that first attempt count!
There are 20+ songs there for woo-ing your lady friends, or mourning lost comrades. There are 3 songs that should only be available to differing races (dwarf, elf, gnome).
Please let me know if something does not seem to be working properly.
If anyone has a song/joke they want added to this, please let me know.
