My background so far is literally 'went away from home. am visiting again while in the area.' Feel free to add how your character met Beardsley and his giant metal dil...friend.
Hmm.

There, I went through a handful of books and bought a bunch of random junk that felt appropriate.

Having the person who is giving me a job refuse to share his theories by ignoring me actually makes me want to not take the job.   :lmao

He's already told you all the theories are in the documents you have. And that he's got tons of groups to deal with. You're hardly special in his eyes, at least until you return.

Anytime an employer completely ignores a relevant question it's suspicious, in-game or real life.  He could have just said "read the packet" instead of being an asshole.   :P

He kind of did say that. He replied to the first question with "Read the Packet" and didn't see it necessary to repeat himself for what he considered to be another question in the same vein
Have you ever stood and stared at it, marveled at its beauty, its genius? Billions of people just living out their lives, oblivious.

"Where was the oldest confirmed incident" and "What do you think is going on" are different enough questions that completely ignoring the second person is being an asshole in my opinion.

Your NPC has bad social skills. Seems pretty straight forward.  :P

Are there supplies you need to pick up/want to go around the city first or jump cut to outside the city opening the document?

I don't have anything that I want to buy and Dwarves are rude so I'm fine leaving.  :p

Apologies for the slow response, been a little tied up with other matters.

Now I remember why there's usually a separate dice thread in PbP. I emboldened my text and the dice were afraid of it.
Hmm.

In general, just don't get rear-ended if you want life to continue normally...  :banghead

Hopefully you didn't do it on purpose.   :lmao

So...I just realized that the skills in Arhosa don't allow you to search for anything that isn't Traps or Secret Doors.  I was going to search for clues and realized that that general searching isn't listed as an option.

Perception/Search for Traps

But what if I'm not looking for traps?  The search skill has uses beyond traps or secret doors, the SRD even has the DC for searching for a specific item in a chest full of junk.
