I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

In any case it would be a battle of critical thinking and I refuse to fight an unarmed individual.

I'm going to say that counts as a description of the slime. Yvonne is awarded 100 discretionary XP.
(also, there are now the beginnings of a bestiary )

Not long after Yvonne's journal entry is added to the Bestiary, a different hand added a bunch of arcane numerals.

Some say the stat block isn't entirely correct, but it is a whole lot better than nothing. 75 XP to Ally and 25 to Yvonne.
(Dexterity of the slime is impossible to guess because it doesn't use ranged attacks. and Constitution is impossible in general)

With the size and temperment of a territorial street cat, these rodents have the means and inclination to keep up with the average human, so caution is advised. Thankfully they're easy to put down with any bladed weapon, but they are yet to be seen alone.

Recorded. Another 75 XP.

A note on how loot works in this game: every time you need to pick up some loot, a random position is picked on the loot table. However most loot tables have an 'again' outcome, which means "discard this roll, and roll twice on the same table", which is what allows you to receive multiple items from one loot drop. There is no natural limit to how much stuff you can get, however receiving more than about 40 items is impossible (not to mention absurdly unlikely) due to stack overflow.

Lady Vivienne Floros of the Songbird Company has arrived on Chamark. She has indicated to many independent men and women of means that she would be interested in forming a guild to collectively safeguard their interests on the island.

It is now possible to stop adventuring if you're low on HP. You may set an 'HP threshold' (set to 0 by default) at which you would like to stop and make camp, but if you do you will have to repeat the day (or go back to Port Chamark.) Although this is set for each adventurer, currently the whole party will rest if one of it's members needs to.
Pro tip of the day: you can only use potions during rest (between turns.)
