So glad someone is composing songs for us in this game. Wb (and even Tet) keep up your ability in Song/Inspire (respectively)...not only are Fellowship Songs very helpful, but "Rally Comrades" saves PCs in battles.

I think V first adds a Hope point for each PC who had an unwounded (and uncorrupted? can't remember) Focus. Then he goes through and refills each PC 1 point from the pool, starting with those who have the least, and cycling through. Or something...haha.

One nice thing for Hartley, Aerondil, and Telurin is that they are the only three who can use the pool of 6 points, effectively letting us each spend about 2 Hope each "session" without slowly dwindling them.

Aegor, I updated your Heroic Devep tab, but still some issues.

XP
+8 From Me
-4 Valour Rank 2
-4 Longsword Rank 2

Okay XP is good. I put it in the right column. (left side)

AP
+15 From Me
-9 Healing Rank 3 (not favoured)
-4 Hunting Rank 1 (not favoured)
-4 Explore Rank 1 (not favoured)

That is 17 AP, so you have a problem here as you see with AP not adding up.

Let's call the song Old Tharbad Town
Alright.

When I say its time (scene change, etc), everyone but your Dunedain can refresh their hope from the Fellowship Pool. Generally I hand it out equally, so far in all the games it hasn't been a real issue of it running out, and with 6 points but only 3 people drawing from it it won't be a big deal.

I'm on board with making Tharbad a sanctuary.

Hmm. I'm not seeing anything I want to do besides open a Sanctuary. The other obvious one would be to heal corruption, but I don't seem to have any so far.

V, can we do a "Guard the Prison", "Go to the Market Pool" or "Go Hunting with the Dunlendings" roll as a 2nd Undertaking?

Sure those should work. Go to the Black Market that is.

Cool - well if I can choose, I'd like to do something similar to "Guard the Prison".

I think I will go hunting with the Dunlendings. V, do you want to make the role? Then I can narrate the results in the IC thread.

Agreed V, if you roll for me with the Guard, you can "translate" the result and I can narrate ICly.
