...There's no way you are going to be able to create an entire world, mcclay.
Bet you 5 dorfbucks that enough energy would do it.

...And give weak points to strike.

Ness-Y makes a mark. "Citizen Mayfair-R-FUN-1, what would you do if you discovered a traitor on your team?"

Ah.
Why were we given a sword? Badge/Symbol of office?
GM NOTE: The King appears to believe that a Knight should have a sword. He rightly surmised that you lacked the means to purchase one. Consider it a "housewarming" present.
Very nice of him.

I plan on bringin a world into a age of science and reason. I'm not saying which one.
Which world or which age?

Will the future be born of Strength, war, and change or will it be born of science, weakness, and stagnation? Either way, My goal is to get Humanity into space.
Wait, why is Science associated with weakness and stagnation, but War with strength?
War weakens, Science strengthens.
War keeps everyone strong, science (in excess) makes us weak. To have everything done for us *cough* magic *cough* then we will become weak. We can have these things, but not to where it exerts power over us instead of the other way around.
War weakens as it allows for theoretically greater strength; science only weakens if it more than makes up for it.
Because, you know, war is destructive and people won't give stuff up if they can't replace it.
Either extreme is dangerous, but people are more likely to go to an extreme of war than to science.

Not all of them, just a few! We'd return a copy! And pay for them, too!

Sure. Although, if we saved the king's life in battle, we probably know how to use the sword. We shouldn't, but we can.
GM NOTE: You fought with a cudgel on that day. It was a small detail in one of the early posts, easy to miss.
Ah.

Wouldn't they already be taxed? Lots of the tax money is sent to the king, and I doubt tax collectors would care if there was a lord or not. W just need to take our share.
GM NOTE: You get the feeling that this area hasn't been very well managed recently. As in, the tax collector rarely if ever visits. These people live in a quite, forgotten part of the kingdom (at the moment).
Also, if the local lord doesn't tax people, that's less taxes than those paid by someone living somewhere where the lord does tax them.

38635
Well, that's hardly polite.

How come Xantalo's respawned?
He respawned BEFORE Persus destroyed the ship. Or, rather, sent it to be flooded at the bottom of the ocean. I'm not respawning anyone until they can get out of the ship without drowning.

Oh god, Bucket is making a society of morality, cleanliness, and kindness


We need some disease ridden, immoral barbarians to march right in there eventually

And a devil/god of darkness
It'll be fine as long as the infection is contained. If it can't then yes, we will have to send in the Plague Marines and the Bloodthirsters.
Wait, who made the Bloodthirsters?

38638
And we shall eat your minds. Or at least those of selected scientists and other individuals. We'll leave you some minds to consume as well, to make it an even trade.

I think 10% of food produced is a nice starting tax. We should request something that not spoil fast. We may sell that in the town for useful stuff
That, and 10 hours a week work for our projects
Or something like that.

Tax free land. Interesting option, surely that will make us popular among peasants. We may go that route, but that will mean no money... And still we need to force them working on our projects
Well, we could still sell them the land, but--oh, you mean a realm that is tax-free. Yeah, should attract immigrants.

Give them an option, be taxed or give work hours to our projects.
Better idea: Require each citizen to give a certain amount of "Credits." These "Credits" can be given in cash, labor, or certain goods.

They've been willing to work for us, and feed us for some bizarre reason, why do we need to start forcing them to do more things for us :3
Agreed--this is longer-term.

The best way to consolidate our power is to let them see that their day-to-day existence improves with our guidance. And if they actually refuse the "tax or work hours" thing, what could we do? It's not like we know how to use the sword. Let's just go slowly, calmly and peacefully until we have any way to apply leverage on them, alright?
Sure. Although, if we saved the king's life in battle, we probably know how to use the sword. We shouldn't, but we can.

sneak around towards its hind leg, and then climb up towards its eyes to EAT THEM and go inside the dragon.
No, that's suicidal.
And your point iiiiiiiissss?
...Dying is undesired?
