Out of curiosity, what's Julian's Riask at now? Broken? Or still at 'below broken'?
|
Broken. Which is better than the gesturing kid that was hired about ten days back.

I suppose if I cut off the tops of the spears those would be too clumsy to use as a handle.

Not terrible handles... but it would be a LOT of work to cut them off with nothing but their own blades.

I'll accept 40L and a knife (40L 15s). I'm not actually sure what I could do with a knife; maybe cut my way through vegetation? Cut ropes? Whittle the poles into spoons or something? That could be a good way to use up all that wood... The obvious answer of what to do with a knife makes me feel a little sick. Her surprised, dead eyed expression-- best not to think of it.

Knife: improvised tool for almost any low-tech skill. Though Peter would get that a lot better than Julian.

I think I'll go get one of the poles and bring it back to the vegetative cave to whittle it down or something. Then I'll ask Ump & co. if "twenty stones" has some kind of special meaning.

"Twenty stones? That could be talking about rocks, it could be talking about vasic, or it could be talking about time."

Not sure what to roll for whittling; low-tech mentions carpentry for making wooden keys, age of sail pirates mentions artist... I'll go with artist; Julian's going for a nice looking carving, and doesn't really have anything specific in mind.

Carpentry or artist will both work: artist is probably more relevant. I think this falls under the category of "practice".
