What exactly are wooden gauntlets? How would those even work?

They are made of a thick, flexible wood. It is overlayed and attached with copper hinges to allow movement.

Sounds awesome actually. Probably gets the Elves super angry. You could kit yourself out with only wooden equipment.

EDIT: I want some wooden chainmail.

Oh. I thought they were just giant rigid gloves or something.

Unless it is metal it is considered a breastplate.

Test balance of mace.
Equip it?

Okay, so can we get a description of where we are, and what direction we came from? Anything we see or hear around us, like fighting or people or loots?

(If you're waiting on something, just ignore me until we start)

I'm waiting on everyone sorting their inventories out.

Mission, I'll trade you my Iron War Hammer for your Copper Helm. I'd rather keep my spear, and I'd rather not have your boots, but I'm open to negotiation along those lines.

EDIT: Oh, and I equip the spear. Do we know if any of this stuff is magical? I can make some assumptions, but you know.

I'll agree to that, I would rather smash someones head in then take a few more beatins to the head with no weapon with which to defend myself

Sounds cool to me. So Squeegy, I give Mission my Iron Hammer in exchange for his Copper Helmet. I check the helmet for lice and if it looks safe I strap it on.

Ok.

I swing my new hammer a few times to get a feel for it.

Then I will sniff my potion somewhat to see if I can gather its use from its smell. Mind you I don't sniff it greatly, more like waft a bit of it towards me so I don't inhale pure poison.

Since Scripture is a skill, does that mean we start illiterate, or just barely literate? And language - I assume we can talk normally in the local language but if we take that skill we choose a new language?

Also, there isn't a melee weapon fighting skill. Did it get left off the list or does it work differently?

You cannot read. All melee weapons are their own Specialization skill. You can take a new language with the Language skill.
