Heroica RPG General Discussion

So Shadeaux and Ji Pei don´t compromise each other, nor would it compromise either if you were to go on Masked´s quest!

So I have to have 3 Shadeaux reputation to be a Dragoon since I have 1 Hinkwell reputation point?

I think you can be Good with both houses, just not great, so you´d only need two. You just can´t be Great with rivalling houses. Don´t quote me on that though.

Where is the list of rival houses located? I don't want to jeopardize my JP status and want to work on my Shadeaux status.

For future reference, the rivaling families are listed both in the Library and the Training Room topic (in the latter's case, you can find it under the "Expert Job Classes" headline).

OK, thanks. Checked the Expert thread and didn't see it there.

I think that gaining good reputation with the Shadeaux will just make your good reputation with the Hinckwells dissapear.

The sad thing is that Hoke is a straight laced guy, and I can't see him doing anything Shadeaux-y (rim shot!).

But in all Heroica concerned seriousness, Hoke may not make it to Dragoon...

To the best of my understanding, the Shadeaux aren't 'evil' or 'bad'. Conversely, the Hinckwells aren't 'good'. None of the houses fall into such categories. It's just how they've been portrayed in the majority of the Quests they've appeared in, leading to some stigmatisation. Hopefully some future quests will remedy that. Quests which require Metasimians.

I see how that is, but since they are being portrayed as less than ideal people to work with/for, it's going to be a stretch for Hoke.

[Professor Flitwick]

Eh, there are ways around it. I could make Hoptet sign up, but misspell his name as 'Hoke Ablesword'!

Just when I'm on a quest, the fun starts at Heroica Hall .

Is that so? How would you feel about finding a Lvl. 150 Demon in the Mausoleum Suddenly?

I'd suggest Zoltan use his Diplomacy to put him in our team .

Ooc: He didn't follow, you edited...

Actually I didn't, I just posted something later which caused the posts to merge, the editting was spelling. It's just to tie things together.

Well, depending on your outlook, the monopoly the Hinckwells are attempting to acquire on the cloth trade (sure they've spruced the wording up) by taking advantage of underlying corruption in a poverty-stricken city in my quest is relatively questionable ethics-wise.

I'm actually surprised/pleased that no one decided not to go along with Dill's quest because of this. Money does indeed make the world go round.

I see what you did there!

If anyone's wondering, the song's from Cabaret, one of my all time favourite musicals. The song's called Money. I'll post a link in a bit, since I'm currently on my phone.

....Aaaaaand everything is ready for Phase 2 of the final showdown! Ready when you are, 48ers.

On a scale from 1 to Michel Jackson, how dead are we?

I thought you'd get a kick outta that.

Your scale only goes up to Michael Jackson?

I don't contemplate death much.

To answer your question, no, I am not going to be making it impossible.

Lets just say I'm going to make you work for your paycheck.

I can work with that.

...To be honest, I don't even remember what my quest reward is.

To be honest, I never did. Why don't you make it 400 gold per person and a level. That should do it!

[CMP]

It was 900 gold to split and a level of experience each, from the Library.

Only if you're wearing the Kanohi Mask, which you're not at the moment.
