Buy the bar itself.

Buy, like, six bars, and become a landowner.

Sit on it, you're a dragon.

Are you stupid or something? You horde and sit on it.

>>276714
Visit your brother? He was real cool last time and he could train you in all your draconic abilities. Plus, I'm betting he has investment tips.

go buy yourself some land and ask money for rent and shit, then hoard it and sit on it, or more likely in your case, lay on it seductively in a bikini.

The point is, you should invest it while you go about obtaining MORE GOLD.
Also go see what your little boytoy it up to.

Buy yourself and him some awesome outfits, big fur coats

Get magic lessons.

see if it is comfy to use as a bed, also, go equipment shopping, if you have a boatload of money, obviously you want to get better everything, expanding thy magical and draconic abilities sounds good too.

Here's an interesting investment.

Security.

Whether you like it or not, your face is probably going to be the most recognized one around when word gets out that you're the one that took down the golem and received the reward. It's more than likely some punk(s) is going to get it into their head that they can take you on and snatch that money out from under you. I don't know how advanced the banking system is in your area, but a good investment is land. Preferable defensible and a place to stash your new-found hoard.
Then, go full kobold and line the place with death traps and bask in the new investment opportunity of taking money from the fools that go through your death gauntlet. If we're smart about this, there's no risk to your riches.

>>276714
Get a surgeon/wizard to enhance your chest.

>investment tips
I guess he was a merchant. I'm not sure if playing the stock market is really the most dragony way to aquire a horde, mind...

Go buy yourself Jehral.

I recommend getting some more training in your draconic powers. Perhaps, for example, learning to fly. Everybody is suggesting that you invest your money to make more money, but remember how you got it in the first place: skillfully completing a difficult mission. That's where you need to invest, something you are already good at.

>>276714
There's many options actually:

Work wise:
1. Go find your father. or...
2. Learn to fly. or...
3. Train your magics skills.

On the other hand:

1. Ask Jehral out on a date. And I mean a ROMANTIC date. You know: Flowers, dinner, a walk on the beach, etc.
2. Ask your mother to teach you random dragon stuff. You know. Mother/daughter bonding.
3. Buy a fuckload of senseless, useless crap you like. Or the bar itself if you feel like it.

>>276737
which is why magic lessons. If you were a full dragon, you could just go dragon form when in danger. But you aren't. Magic is the next best way to defend yourself.

>>276737
Actually. yeah.

Adventurers will often find the best investment they can make is either a) themselves or b) their allies.

Everything else can be destroyed, devalued, killed easily, stolen, etc.

First order of business is to find a safe, secure place, put all the coinage on the floor and roll around in it naked.
See if that unlocks any particularly dragony feelings.
You don't have to let us watch, either.

>First order of business is to find a safe, secure place, put all the coinage on the floor and roll around in it naked.
>See if that unlocks any particularly dragony feelings.
>You don't have to let us watch, either.
You totally have to let us watch. Now get to it.

Spend some it (read: A lot of it) to train at magic/fighting/whatever, to buy awesome shit (weapons, armour etc), generally things to make yourself more awesome.
Then you can get more money more easily, which you can use to make yourself even more awesome, and then repeat the process infinitely!

Show off to Jehral.

First, this:
>>276745

Then, training! Upskilling yourself is a method of investing money that you can seldom lose out on. Now, if I recall, your magic is more internal and ordinary study doesn't help much, but it would be helpful for you to know a bit of the who and the what and suchlike behind it. Also some standard adventurey type knowledge, geography and monstrous zoology and such. Maybe pick up another language, so you can travel to new places? Or perhaps you can round out your warrior-magey type abilities with more training in stuff like stealth and climbing and locks and whatnot. Besides all that, if you can find a trainer for shapeshifting you need to do it. Or at last someone who can teach you to fly.

Picking up some sort of magic equipment might be a good idea, too. Also... maybe send a wee itty bit of tribute to your mom? Just to keep you on her good side.

>>276749
Maybe learn to do some of the external mana thing that non-dragons do? Since apparently that doesn't tire you out?

>Jehral

I thought we already went over this. He's not interested, and frankly not good relationship material.
I like Jehral but there's gotta be someone better suited to Rynh.

Unless you guys just want to watch a Rynh rerun. Then by all means...Jehral.

As for money usage.

ENCHANTED weapons. You seem to run into a lot of superhumans. Could do with some glowy cranium crackers.

So, suggested courses are:
1. Sex with Jehral (Could be fun, but he's not that into you)
2. Wallow in wealth (You say that you're already getting bored with it, so a short-term thing.)
3. Upgrades/train (Duh, but how is the question?)
4. Visit mommy dearest (Mommy doesn't give a fuck.)
5. Buy land (Do you really want to?)
6. Visit dearest brother (He's cool and gave us free money! Can possibly train in dragon magic, seems to give more of a fuck than mommy. See money.)

>>276753
> there's gotta be someone better
Not that we know of.
Admittingly our fascination with Jehral stems from two primary factors:
1) He's a half-kobold, too!
2) He's adorable.

Additionally, we just don't really know anybody else, except for some of the other mercenaries, and Jehral's the one who is both most reasonably compatible and willing to put up with our crap.

In order to find someone else, we'd actually have to go out and meet other people! And Rynh's not exactly a social butterfly.

Being totally stupid rich might open a lot of doors, though.

>>276714
Make sure that you put away most of the money in a safe spot, oh and that if there is a guardin of your money, they won't let you get any if you're obviously drunk as hell or has a drunk mob with you. Then it's time for a victory party. Get roaring stupidly drunk and hookers (of either gender) for everyone. Then we will see how and where you wake up.

He's probably dead from old age by now. 'Bolds are not known for their long lifespans. Especially not ones who are adventurous.

Actually kobolds can live a long time, they just usually die young.

Consider buying some land.

Buy a new sidekick.

Get huge.

Have a magic weapon made for yourself. Every serious opponent during your job seemed to turn aside normal attacks like they were nothing.

You need a serious weapon to up your odds of success in high-profit ventures. Maybe a dagger that's suitable for throwing, magicked to return to you (safely) while being strong enough to pierce supernatural critter hides. It would also be semi-concealable and more appropriate for day-to-day carry than a sword or a spear.

>>276732
see >>115919

Invest some into permanent long-term stuff like land and businesses. Stash a little of it away. Use some to finance a caravan of your own. You've seen how the caravan business operates so why not run a caravan to make more money while you think of something else to do? You don't even have to spend as much on guards since you're a pretty powerful force all by yourself.

Maybe you should also buy a magical weapon like people are saying. Something to go with your fire affinity, strength and quick aggressive style like a longsword with an explosive spell tip... A sort of pierce and destroy deal. You need to work out a good way to deal with those tough, strong opponents you keep running into.

You could also go play on the beach, like practice your dragon flight over the water. Because being able to fly is godly.

Invest in your equipment and skills. Based upon your success at the most recent job, I would recommend outfitting yourself as a lethal infiltrator type- items to help you go unseen and unheard, take out enemies quickly (poisons, learn about them), move about quickly and unhindered in unexpected ways (walk on walls? Walk through walls? Open locks with magic and talent instead of fighting ogres?), all that kind of thing. Focus your magical and physical studies in the same direction, and you should be able to pick up some very nice tricks and start taking more jobs just as nicely-paying as the last one.

I've got about fifty thousand and change. That's not enough for any personal army or anything, but it could commission a few quality items from an artificer or enroll at one of the big mage academies, either way I'd probably burn up most of the money.

>have your brother help you invest it
I don't even know if he's really a merchant or if he just poses as one to hide amongst mortals. He or my mother are the only people I know with enough money to pawn this ruby off on though. My mother would for sure.

>Maybe learn to do some of the external mana thing that non-dragons do? Since apparently that doesn't tire you out?
That takes a lot of studying books and sitting in dark libraries and I've never been the studying type. Dragon sorcery just requires that you have willpower and strength and things explode.

>Use some to finance a caravan of your own.
Oh gods. I'd have to try to keep track of the markets and weather and politics and bandits.

>ENCHANTED weapons. You seem to run into a lot of superhumans. Could do with some glowy cranium crackers.
I should pick up some kind of magical weapon. That's just a good investment right there.

There's still a lot of choices that don't involve sleeping with Jehral.
I think that magic weapon should be my first goal.

Go to a Salon and get your hair did.

Mage academy for dragon hybrids in mind, if they have that sort of thing.

>>276903
Magic weapons are nice. You were pretty badass with that spear, although that might be a little bulky to bring with you on future covert ops. Unless you get it enchanted to shrink on command in addition to being super killy, which could be awesome.

>>276919

yessssss

You could get one of those weapons enchanted to convert into other weapons, but then you'd be expected to train with fifty things, and why not just bring fifty weapons at that point and blah.

Spear enchanted to pierce better. Like a drill tip or something. No reason this has to be complicated.

Armor might be another wise investment, though I guess it depends on where we're going to put more points this time around. Jewelery is always in fashion, though.

Hey, here's a thought. It's an incredibly stupid thought, but at least it'd be something to do:

Go get a magic weapon and take down your mother. No, really. Think about. If you succeed you'll have more money than you could ever dream of, and as an added bonus, you will have bested her in combat, which is probably about the only way you'll ever make her proud of you.

And if you fail, well, she's your mom. Maybe she'll make your death a mite more painless than it would have been otherwise.

What have you to lose (besides literally everything)?

>>276903
silly rynh, you pay people to keep track of the caravans, that's want accountants are for!

But if you want to stay the mercenary route, maybe getting some sort of elite instructor wouldn't hurt...
You know, in addition to the magic weapon...

In that case, I vote for a mage academy or something similar.

>>276932
hahahano.jpg

dang, i kinda liked the idea of buying a bar and having jehral serving people on it along with other half dressed males, all the bitches would love it. oh well.

do you have a favorite weapon? so far the most i have seen you putting on action was a set of daggers. hey, you could buy enchanted armor too, something magical that can still protect you! maybe even a ring of regeneration or something like it...

hmmm... something else...

oh, how about a breast operation?

>>276903
>enchanted weapon
there are some rules you should follow here
1. Never buy an enchanted item from shady looking store.
2.If the weapon has ruins that are written in a long lost language.
3. Avoid the colors black, red, glowing red, rusted, or orange. Apart from being generally bad colors they clash with your outfit.
4. If the weapons speaks and tells you to kill throw it out. In fact avoid talking weapons in general.
5. If the weapon is embroidered with some form of phallic symbolism avoid.
6. Most important always make sure you know EXACTLY what it does.
(feel free to contribute)

>>276953
I feel that if the weapons sings then it should be an exception to the not buying talking weapons rule. Just make sure you got a good sheath for stealth missions. It'll be great for parties though.

>>276903
A magic strap-on. I hear gnolls tend to have those, maybe you could buy one off of Dagnyr.

Magic Lance sounds good, plus they double as a handy walking aid for when your walking over tricky terrain, plus extra reach, good for taking people offa mounts, a shortsword as your backup and your ready for anything, unless you want to get a crossbow or something too.

>not rolling around naked in the money
Seriously, you're fucking rich. Even if you're going to spend it, you really should enjoy the cash while you've got it.

As far as weapons... swords are essentially the best weapons you can get for single combat. The advantages of spears mostly apply to military engagements. Thing is, a weapon is just a weapon. Thinking "I ought to get a magic weapon, because I have spare cash" isn't really a way to go about things. First we need to think: What magic do you actually need? So far it seems like you're pretty good all around. There's nothing you need magic to help you with.
If you really want to spend all your money now, I guess look around and see if there's anything unusual available, but you don't actually need any sort of magical weapon at this point. You have both magic and weapons independent of each other, which suits your offensive needs adequately. Really, an investment towards future wealth would be ideal, but of course, if you can't manage your own funds, it's not super liable to work out for you. Although, you could at least buy yourself a home of some sort; that doesn't require much business sense, and it would give you a place to keep your shit and prevent you from needing to stay in inns. It's also a start towards being more than a mere mercenary.

You had trouble getting through that fat guy's blubber, so you should look into a weapon that would help with fighting fat dudes.

>>276993
So, an extendable pointy wizard staff? Aye, sounds pretty good.

An extensible spear that acts as a focus for your natural magics, that would be ideal. It can boost some spells or channel your magic through it, hold the elemental properties for gishy attacks or just enhance your raw magic power.

Meh. If you keep getting awesome weapons, you'll eventually need a regular place to keep 'em all.

You got a place you can actually say is 'yours', Rynh? Like.. actually owned and not rented or borrowed or something? Or are you cool with your current living accommodations?

Or, perhaps you could buy shares in your favorite bar? Maybe you could get a bit of preferential treatment or something. Shares in the merc company might be good, too. ...or heck. Maybe just buy good, non-magical weapons for your allies.

Then again, perhaps you could just sit on it for a while and take some small, easy job. Maybe you'll come across a good use for it when working?

On an unrelated note, that's a pretty nice looking outfit you've got, too. Very lovely. Cost you much?

>>277009
>You got a place you can actually say is 'yours', Rynh? Like.. actually owned and not rented or borrowed or something?
Rynh should get a private demiplane. Settle for nothing less than the most extreme of decadence. Learning how to make one will take a long time and a hell of a lot more magic than she's got at the moment, but she's got time. And it'll be awesome.

A sword that shoots lightning when you swing it.

Get one of these.

>>276903
More cash to spend on magic weapons first. Go sell that jewel to your mom, then go see your brother and ask him if he's really a merchant or not. Then we will see how much money we have and if he has connections that might give you a better price at a more powerful magical toy.

>>277032
>Sell to mom
>Why hello slightly less shameful daughter, what wonderful tribute you have there.
I'd only say the brother because he's more likely to leave us alive if he just feels like taking it.

Let's just... not visit mother anytime soon, yeah? Brother is a different matter, he can buy the gem and perhaps have other jobs or even special training for you. Or just buy the gem and tell you to piss off, that's fine too.

Oh and screw going it by yourself. You deserve a servant, go hire/enslave Jehral. You aren't invincible and still need someone to watch your back. You can't really buy good enough help to matter or that you would get along with, and your other friends are all too willful and big headed to tag along with you and your riches and not be a pain in the ass one way or another. And in your minotaur friends case that might be literal.

>>276903
Check with your fellow mercs. Surely some of the better-off ones have had magic items made for themselves, or have even made their own in the case of the magically-inclined ones.

Guys, she's not THAT rich

Right a few thoughts on the situation:

Magical training is a good idea, but arcane training takes time and you prefer your innate willpower magic. Don't go to mage school, find some other person with similar abilities to train you or partner up with. Then you can share tricks, compete and inspire each other. Master what you have.

Spears are great for warfare, but they don't work as well in cramped quarters or against surprise attacks.

You should consider leaving the hardcore mercenary business. This golem job will be hard to top and the risks are massive while you barely break even on most jobs. You have money and you'll be best off using it cleverly to make more money.

Consider selling your giant ruby at an auction for high end magical goods far away from where you found it. The auctioneer will obviously try to get you the best possible value for it.

ftfy

>>277126
Yes, coil around dat massive ruby which so perfectly compliments your eyes, why would you want to sell it? Such an appropriate memento of you first big haul.

What we need to get is a lair of some sort. We must aquire... a dungeon! Get Jerhal to go scout something out for you, something secure, but with a nice view... perhaps near the ocean or desert cliffs?

Not too far from civilization though, but at least more than a day's walk.

>>277134
I was gonna say, yeah, keep the damn ruby. It's a souvenir of your first big haul. One day when you are a larger snub-nosed one-wing troll dragon you can have it embedded in a gold necklace.

Yeah shift into a dragon and try it then. It might be all about the scales.

>>277122
Betcha it's much more comfortable when you're covered in scales. Turn into a dragon and see how it feels then!

Dragons probably like it because they're so huge the coins feel like beans in a beanbag.

Why worry about spending it right now? Hell, wouldn't it be fun to have a nice, somewhat mundane adventure that isn't exactly trying to kill us constantly?

I guess that could be good. Basic adventuring is still a decent way to make a living, even though the death toll is still really high. There's enough bandits, gnoll raiders, goblin kidnappers, kobold sneak thieves and random monsters roaming the countryside to keep anyone busy.

>keep the ruby as a souvenir

For now. I really don't have any need for more money at the moment and it's just so damn shiny.

First I need to stop rolling around on my cash and get that sparkling new weapon. The best defense is a good offense and defense keeps you alive.
Quegmar Ironhammer is the local Dwarven weaponsmith and he makes excellent weapons for enchanting, so I'll probably get something from him. Something powerful and legendary and not too expensive.

I generally use swords. They're useful in most situations, but maces and axes do huge amounts of damage too. Decisions, decisions.

>>277179
You could invest in a warpick, nice for that armor penetration, handy for tripping up foes, prying gems out of giant ominous statues, and climbing/ledge-catching/tunneling.

>>277122

>Fine. This is not nearly as enjoyable as you'd think. It's hard and lumpy and it's going to take forever to pick it all back up.

Think that means you need more of it.

>>277179
How about a dirk
or two for that matter

>>277179
A sword is a fine all around weapon. See what options he's got for ya on enchantments, be sure to mention the whole natural magic thing and see if he can work with that.

Pick the weapon you're most comfortable with - a sword, I assume. I'd ask if you wanted to use anything in the other hand, but I assume you're keeping that for your magic. So, something light enough for one-handed use, but that you can swing two-handed if you need to for extra power. Although... since you'll have magic for ranged attacking, perhaps something short and sturdy, maneuverable, good for defense. It'll be more useful for close quarters as well, in dungeons and castles and so on.

Hrrm. How much would it cost for a weapon that can catch spells and absorb their energy for you?

>>277179
I'd say you have the right idea with a blade. However, what kind depends entirely on how you fight/what your physical strengths are.

Ambidextrous? Dagger + Shortsword or twin Shortswords and learn to how to fight with two weapons.

Single Handed? A traditional, well-made longsword should work, preferably with some manner of hand-guard.

It's a sword! It's an axe! It's stylish and unique! A KHOPESH!

Yeah a sword would probably suit you best. See what's available. Remember it has to be durable and deadly enough to let you take down ogres or guys like that Kedex fellow.

Here's an extra - see if you can get an enchanted sheath that if triggered explosively accelerates your draw to near arm-breaking levels. Most people won't expect it and it should multiply the power of your first strike, which is the most important one. We're talking you standing ready to draw and then BAM whoever is in front of you gets cut in half without even having a chance to react.

Big, heavy weapons are for big, heavy people. From what we've heard and seen, you might grow up to be a big, heavy girl, but for now you've still got most of your points in agility.

Swords are a pretty safe bet for just about anyone, though. Look for something sort of like you're holding there, but with a slightly longer grip, so you can use both hands for those really awesome two-handed chops that split some dude in half.

>>277213
Fancy, but silly. Most of the time, you'd be better of with your sword out in the first place.

If you feel swords are your strong point go with one. Don't go for anything too exotic, unless you feel it handles better.

>>277179
I say sword, not too big but something that can be used with one or two hands. For an enchantment how about making it a spell condiut - cast fire or lightning while holding it to give the sword their effects. Especially effective if you've got it lodged in someone at the time. You were relying on your magic a lot in the last mission and this could give you a new way to use what might be your biggest advantage.
Also consider getting a backup shortsword. Not suggesting you try dual-wielding, just that it's good to be prepared.

>>277230
This.

>>277230
You're right, I just really love the look of them.

My first choice would be something practical, like a big bowie knife. They're damn fine weapons, and they're good tools as well. As far as magic, a boring cutting enhancement is probably sufficient.

A khopesh is not a sword.

No, guys, wait, what are we talking about. We all know there's only one true answer.

(To be more serious: she has a natural supply of magical energy, some sort of magical weapon that she can use herself as a battery for might be cool. Especially if it resembles a lightsaber in operation. Compact, deadly, and magical!)

so no rings of regen, nor shield or armor.

i was thinking in a set of thowing daggers with a spell to return. it sounds silly now, because you have fire breath and stuff.

Which means if we can channel mana into it, we have a goddamn huge battery pack for all our magic needs!

This means we can actually create elemental swords out of thin air with the ammound of mana it can hold.

That said, we can probably spend some money on mana crystals to embed into said enchanted weapon.
I'd go with a Kris. Damn things are known to have spirits inside them. They're also wavy, awesome, and cut well.

>>277257
They're also relatively fragile, and have very little cutting power for their size.

I'm gonna go ahead and recommend a kukri, just because I love kukris. Perhaps as a backup weapon since it's not very big. >>277230 is also nice.

>>277274
Maybe, but I was assuming we'd get it enchanted.
And maybe the spirits inside can help.

>>277312
^ Addendum
Maybe we can go questing for a legendary sword?

>>277283
A falcata is just a very large kukri. (Falcatas are also a little straighter, handle better, and are actually known of in Europe in this time period)

>>277283
Kukris are convenient for taking off a limb, but they can't stab worth a damn, and are kind of shit to parry worth. Also, less reach than a Falcata, and more weight than is convenient to use with any finesse.

>>278014
I'm guessing you want a rapier?

>>277179
Sword? Sadness. You were so awesome with that spear...

>>278016
Nah, rapiers need special training to use effectively..

>>278167
they are also totally awesome, though.

>>278190
No.

Get twin falcatas. Dual swords make for pretty beheadings.

And so you can arc lightning between them.

>>277179
If you want something truly legendary, look into something that can "hold" magical energies. Nothing will be more surprising to that nasty Mid Boss of the dungeon if fireballs or lightning starts shooting from your sword!

If that fails, might I recommend something to simply make the weapon itself stronger, such as a Keen Edge or similar enchantment?

>>277179
*checks his rulebooks* Okaaaay, not sure on this one, but I had a sudden moment of GREAT IDEA.

How about a sword that, when it hits, hits HARDER? Like, think something light and fast like a sword, but with the destructive power of one big-ass axe or hammer.

Yeah, there's no way this can possibly go wrong...

Standard longsword, duh. It's what you're used to and comfortable with.

Buy a bunch of markers and stick them together like a big rad sword.

I ask about different kinds of swords and receive a grunt and a puff of smoke for a reply.
"Do I look like some damned elf, making blades all curved and twisted willy-nilly because it makes it look more like a damn tree or something? Do I?"

"No..."

"That's right. If you're a solid fighter looking for a solid weapon, I can accommodate you. Otherwise, find a damn elf to make your sissy dancing blades."

Oh wow. Dwarves take this stuff seriously. How about a sword with a general magic enhancement and a sharpness enchantment then?

>>278308
Anti-magic/sharpness enchantment.
You won't be able to cut through mundane armor, but anyone with magical defenses are fucked.

apologize. You just assumed that them fancy blades had some form of advantages and weaknesses compared to one another rather than the elves making them for aesthetics sake.

Resist the urge to tell the dwarf that a khopesh is technically an axe, which happens to be a very dwarvenly weapon.

Hey! Ain't a damn elfy thing about falcatas and khopeshes! Just tell him to think about the benefits of an "axe-weighted sword" that is the point of the damn curves after all. But he isn't going to change his mind anytime soon so get your blade stout enough to cleave things and you should be good. General magic enchantment is ok I guess? Not a lot of detail on what that does but I'm sure we can work with it.

>>278309
I think anti-magic weapon is fine and all but won't often be useful and could pose a problem for our own magics. So let's not.

>>278324
Are you bloody kidding? YES get the antimagic weapon! I've seen them in action before, and they're KILLER against anybody or anything that uses magic, particularly against mages who totally rely on it Imagine a mage putting up a powerful shield and just being able to cut right through it if it were nothing!

>>278308
How many inches can you handle?
Go for the biggest sword you can handle, with fancy anti-magic and sharpness shit on it.

>>278329
Yeah? Will an anti-magic blade channel our elemental attacks? Can enhancing our own magic get past such defenses as well? How many mages are you expecting to fight anyway? Not working with enough information, and besides we can look into mage killing methods and gear without sinking a bunch of our gold into a magic-bane weapon. It's going to be the only enchanted weapon we have, so general usefulness is a must.

>>278308
>sword with a general magic enhancement and a sharpness enchantment
This sounds good if we can't get a sword that shoots lightning or anything fun like that.
One medium and one short sword with said enhancements please.

Elves are good at fighting nonetheless...

This guy probably goes with strong medieval kinds of swords, but I feel like you wouldn't like a claymore, a shortsword would be too short for your tastes too..
You'd want something light, fast cutting, and more capable in dexterous hands.
You ma'am want a saber
A Schweizersäbel.
I'd like to mention that the people who wielded these were among the fiercest mercenaries of the time they existed.

I still think that we should handle this sword in the pursuit of legendary items. Nothing like super dragon magic and a powerful sword to back up a claim to fame.

Get a bastard sword, you can use it with either 1 or 2 hands, its the perfect length for any warrior.
In any case, swords are the king of weapons, you can use them as a hammer, you can use them to defend yourself, and you can use them to stab.
You're combining the abilities of a warhammer, a spear and whatnot.
If you use a sword with 2 hands, one on the blade, you can still thrust it hard enough to punch through thin plate. If you plan to fight heavily armored men, get a warhammer as back-up.

An axe would give you a solid offense, but no defense.
Hammers are basicly the same.
Spears are the weapon of peasants.
poleaxes and whatnot take specialisation and are recomended to users wearing full plate, the flail falls under this catagory too.

There's a reason nobility banned peasantry from owning swords.

>>278388
If you plan to duel someone and or face people with weapons of a superiour reach to a bastard sword, get a zweihander, it is recommended to be used with at least a propper breastplate and tassets.
They have a really long reach, hit as hard as a shorter axe, leave a lot less room for defense in the sense of parries, but are extellent against other long weapons. It'll go through plate if you thrust with it with 2 hands.
But remember they're about as long as you are, and they can get heavy. You can't put it away out of combat, and will have to carry it resting on your shoulder. If you sheath it, it'll be out of easy reach when youre ambushed.

Darts and caltrops are recommended, possibly some other shock weapons, but that might get too heavy.

What kind of armor are you packing?

Curved, straight, light, heavy, slashing, stabbing, fencing, crushing. I don't even know what I want.

"Some kind of weight-forward axe-bastard sword with a chopping blade as big as you can handle with a two-handed grip?"

God damn it! Why are there so many kinds of sword?

"Uh... I don't know. I'm thinking."

Yeah that's pretty close. A sword that takes advantage of the fact that you're very strong for your size. Just make sure it's not TOO big and heavy so you can use it one handed.

Can you get some kind of haste enchantment on it?

That looks pretty awesome.

How do you usually fight, Rynh? Quick slashes? Thrusts? Heavy chops? Run around and flail wildly?

He did describe one that sounds interesting. You might want to practice with it if you decide to go ahead with it. Get familiar with your new best friend on the battlefield and all that jazz.

I know, right?
>>278404
add a hand guard (blades gonna slide down that blade and cut her fingers off, make it slightly slimmer and longer (for length but to keep it still useful)

also, add some spikes to that handguard so she can punch someone if it gets way too close...

Also, add a parrying dagger, cause it's a nice way to hold off one person and stab stab another. (well... Schweizersäbels and All Backswords are slash slash weapons. The weapon the guy here is suggesting is also a backsword, and you like slashing too. So it's more about your style)
If We're adding a parrying dagger, possibly a swordbreaker?

>>278404
>no point, only edged on one side
>clearly pretty heavy
>crossguard only where it would never come into play
That thing has all of the downsides of an axe and none of the benefits.

If he's not down with fancy stuff, just go for a normal arming sword. That's probably a better bet than the elven curves anyway.

>>278438
We have knives. We're good there.

>>278442
You don't get it...
It breaks swords.
you lodge it, and then turn it.

And if not that, it makes the opponent unable to use the sword for long enough
It's also bladed on the other end.

>>278460
really at issue is the part where the blade currently under discussion is a two-handed chopping thing, not a one handed nimble blade. Making it longer and slimmer as you suggest puts it firmly into claymore territory, which makes dual wielding even more unlikely.

>>278414
Sabers are nice. They are also quintessential elf swords. The dwarf might glare at you, but it is a common enough blade he should at least sell you one though.

Why not use a long sword imbued with fire or something.

>>278460
It can only work like that on rapiers and smallswords. We have not been faced with those.

Ergo, a second cutting edge is superior.

>>278474
She could do worse than a claymore, if we're talking about the sort that's pretty similar to a saber anyway.

>>278460
The swordbreaker is pretty much the best possible parrying knife. Even though it was pretty impossible to actually break a sword with one, they're incredibly good at trapping blades, which is, of course, just as good if you can take advantage of an opening. The crux of using a swordbreaker is skill and speed - you have to have it held where your opponent can't break your grip or just push through and stab you (which is a thin line - hold it too far from you and your opponent can push it from your hand and keep it too close and the can still stab you) while using the opening created to kill your opponent before they can do either.

Of course, Rynh is a half-dragon so she may well be able to break swords. In which case, a swordbreaker would be an even better investment.

Have you considered a cutlass? Slight curve, yeah, but it's more for hack and slash than fancy shmancy elf swordwaggling. Sure, one could probably get fancy with it, but it's not really neccisary.

Plus, you could pretend to be a pirate when you're drunk.

If so get it enchanted to avoid that problem.

>>278513
Instances where it is useful to turn into a dragon are limited, unless we put a lot of practice into it. Anyways, a shapeshifting weapon would be EXPENSIVE.

Sword. Magic sharp. Magic durability.

Just tell him you're sorry and he's right... listening to that new guy was dumb. Also, ask him where you can get a keg of really good brew.

Oh no you spent five minutes shopping for a sword in a sword store how terrible.
Don't apologize.

Go get your sword magic'ed and then blow money on booze and whores. And look around for some adventure stuff.

Hey, how do rich people travel?

The bastard sword is the best choice, the blade you were conjuring up in your thoughts would function as a 2 handed falchion, which is an early medieval weapon.
When you get down so it, they basicly function as an axe, you lose the ability to propperly thrust or use your weapon as a hammer, and in return you get the ability to wreck chainmail or the bones under it.
You can already go through chainmail if you stab hard enough.

Get a one-handed warhammer you can attach to your belt, in the unlikely event you run into a tin can, you'll be happy you have one.

With the bastard sword you have the perfect balance between reach, flexibility, freedom to choose a shield, aswell as being able to sheath it and not making yourself a big fat target in the process.

It might not be the most interresting or creative of choices, but there's a reason everyone and their mom used it.

If you think your dragon strength would allow you to swing an axe at a great speed with a greater endurance than a human, you could concider getting a Danish Beardaxe, it is the biggest axe in existance, and you use it with your left hand as main hand. It'll ruin everyone's day.
It makes a shield basicly useless in combat, as you have to turn and block and that never works out well, but you have to relentlessly attack, and never give the enemy a chance to hit back. It'll either wear him down as the shock of such a huge axe being absorbed by (mainly) his arm will wear him out quickly. It just has little to no defensive moves.

>>278574
If you know how to cast lightning, a warhammer shouldn't be needed.

>>278525
A shapeshifting weapon is probably pretty expensive, but how about your standard portable pocket dimensions? Know any place you can buy storage devices of a magical nature? Bags are traditional, but jewelry might be better suited to shapeshifting. Dragons look good in necklaces and such.

>>278495
Damn it, I can't figure out what time period's names we're using.

Anyway, yeah. That sword looks fine.

>>278513
Swords wit in sheaths, which hang on belts. I'm sure Rynh can find a way to wear a belt as a dragon either around her waist as per normal, or around her neck if she gets to be so big that it wouldn't fit around her waist. No point in spending gold on that.

This sword thing makes my head hurt. I'm just going to bother Jehral until I can think of something productive to do and until my sword is finished.

"Hey, Jehral. What's something productive to do with a lot of money?"

"I'm pretty sure it's traditional to spend it all on ale and whores and gambling until you're so broke you need to go out and risk your life for more money."
I ruffle his hair a bit, which he seems to appreciate.
"Yeah, but that gets boring and a delicate, young girl would never whore around."

"Uh huh... Well, there's always the old standby of wandering around ancient towers and old tombs looking for treasure while trying not to be killed by zombies."

"See? That has potential."

>>278671

We could spend it on ale, true, while our little whore here pleases us with his tounge.

Well there's always a possibility of going to the library and finding out about places of possible interest for item/treasure hunting

>>278671
Jehral looks pretty down. You should flip his shirt up and tie it around his head.

Rynh, if you have no interest in Jehral, why keep him around? I bet you could bonk Thodren for /free/ if you wanted.

Or hey, you know what gets cash easy? Exotic strippers. I bet mom would be proud!

>>278671
Damn, girl, how tall are you/him? I thought he was half 'elf' not half gnome!

Anyhow, yes, dungeon crawling is traditional, but if you are going to be collecting loot you need to 'acquire' a place of your own to store it in.

You know, some place to crash of your own, where you don't catch all the lice every other syphilitic old barbarian or some shit leaves in the Inn sheets.

Some place with potential for 'expansion' and 'upgrading' perhaps?

Why don't you hire him for certain... services...

Also, even if we were to obtain more cash, what would we do with it? Should we invest our cash, get a safe place to keep it so we can swim around in it, what?

Exploring forgotten places might get us some usefull, and hopefully enchanted gear, so that's an option. You could take your little boytoy with you if you like. Just make sure you don't get in over your head.

As for the sword business, don't worry about it, you made the right choice.

>>278671
Bring him along, he shall be our ideas man. Also, what are your thoughts on a nice and light armor?

>>278671
That actually sounds kindof fun. We'll go adventuring! Like, actual adventuring, not mercenary work. Go find some ruins, a tower or something, explore, look for artifacts, stuff like that.

It's probably not quite as stable as mercenary work, because there's no guarantee you'll find something valuable to pawn off, but there's always a chance you'll hit it big, or at least find something some nerdy archeologist would pay for, it's moderately less dangerous than mercenary work, and you won't be bored!

Due to the limits of the adventuring lifestyle, if we decide to drag people along with us, we should really only bring one other person.
Jehral's pretty small and speedy. He's a scout, right? He'd probably be good at spotting things or fitting through tiny passageways. Also, shenanigans!
Or we could ask that girly mage guy we know. What was his name. He's less fun, but he probably knows all kinds of useless trivia that would be helpful while exploring ancient ruins. Also he's an accomplished mage.
Or we could just go wandering alone. Then we don't have to worry about entertaining or providing for other people. Just the inevitable onslaught of crippling, debilitating loneliness. So lonely.

So lonely.

Disregard forced attempts at Jehral romance.
Get drunk in leiu of any proper recreational pastimes in this lousy middle-ages setting.

Jehral's idea brings another to mind.

What if you cleared out a ruin or dungeon, pref one that's both in the middle of nowhere and in the middle of the everything (anyone got a map?) and pour gold into converting it into a secret base of operations or a lair or something. In case things go foul, or you just want some alone time to adjust to rolling in gold, or that plot should come back to bite you in the ass. Or just to have a place to call your own without annoying taxes or being in government territory.

Oh, and forgot about bonking Jehral. You can do better.

>>278671
Poke Jehral in the forehead and say "No, see, I'm looking for something FUN to SPEND money on."

How about a vacation? Where's somewhere cool to travel?

Hey how about you quest for something more feasible than just going around in random ruins where hundreds have probably gone before? There must be mages and sorcerers around who want magical ingredients beyond your blood.

So if you deal cleverly you can get adventure, money, training and more magical enchantments all in one!

>>278702
"Ingredient wrangler for hire" seems like a pretty sweet gig. Most who could afford you probably aren't in much of a hurry (or can pay extra), and are simply too buy to go fight the Great X of Y for it's horn/skin/whatnot. Moderately risky work with pretty good rewards, an excuse to wander across many lands, and enough buffer money to take high risk/high reward jobs without worrying about the medium-sized-frog of ordinaryville being the fucking-huge-death-toad of nobody-lives-hereville by the time the wizard remembers it.

>>278698
I concur make Jehral your bitch by inviting him to join you on an expensive vacation and by make him your bitch I mean well he did say you need wenches.

>>278671
If you go adventuring, you need a party
Since this seemms to make you a warrior (who's also somehow a rogue)
You'll need others of the basic classes. You're gonna need a mage,bard,cleric in addition to you.
Jehral can be your rogue.

>>278671
Take Jehral with you adventuring again. Maybe he'll come in handy this time for something other than hair gel.

>>278730
We're already a warrior, a rogue and a mage (though we aren't especially effective in any one of these roles). We just need a better ranged fighter (Jehral would work) and maybe a healer.

>>278755
But he's too tiny for a proper bow or a heavy crossbow. And he probably can't get very good penetration with throwing knives either. I guess he could work if we outfitted him with grenades or possibly a sling, maybe grenades and a slingstaff, should make for decent range.

>>278671
He looks unhappy. Give him some money.

By the way, didn't you ask that goblin chick to stand by to help you with this job, then not take her? I wonder if she'd be miffed about that. Bring her a present.

But some kind of a revealing and humiliating set of clothes for Jerhal.

>>278671
You could have sex with Jehral. That has potential. ^.^ b

>>278767

A tight latex stealth suit. Just like the one Jerhal always wanted to have

Clothing that hugs the form, yet breathes.

Magical *armor* would be good. It'd have to be something that would not fuck up if you changed shape though.

You know, cause she never had one before...

>>278671
Give him a piggy-back ride while he gives you ideas. (Don't tell him that he'll owe you a piggy back ride later for the service.)

Maybe look through some books for some lost knick-knack or tchotchke of immense power? More stuff like that scarf you... *ahem* 'found' on your latest adventure. Useful stuff. Not stuff like 'this ring can summon squirrels'. ...though, that would be good for starting up a squirrel-kebab place, come to think of it...

Just tell him it's time you two got a move on, those towers and tombs aren't going to loot themselves. When he protests tell him it was his idea, and you need a shifty rogue like himself to do it... and that you'll pay him and maybe even let him touch your giant ruby.

Oh and it isn't just an excuse, you do need his skills if you're going to do anything like that. He's probably the only rogue you know that is trustworthy to some degree.

He squirms a bit, "Don't you have a big pile of cash now?"
I grip him a bit tighter to hold him still, "That's why I said more. We go collect rare monster parts and stuff and make a fortune selling them to scrawny alchemists and wizards who can't get them on their own."

"Aren't most of those things rare because they're very dangerous to get?"

"How dangerous could it be? We killed a manticore."

2. Place Jehral inside Snugli.
3. Carry Jehral in a manner that doesn't involve choking him.

>>279320
>turn Jehral into a trap

and moving onto suggestions that don't involve tormenting Jehral.
Get Jehral a new bow or something, a Compound bow if possible, and go off to ADVENTURE!

>>279308
Did he get smaller somehow or are you starting to get taller?

We're just going to keep at this until you put him in a maid outfit or a bodysuit or something. So do that.

He is seriously adorably tiny compared to you now. Shouldn't you have some antics before getting stuck in with another lengthy dungeon sequence?

>>279308
You need several things to make this monster-organ-harvesting plan work.
-Potential targets
-Known buyers
-Knowledge of what parts of the targets the buyers want
-Preferably a way of preserving them intact so that you don't deliver half-rotted goods
-A team that's willing to go in on this with you on more than a spot mission basis

Attack each of those problems. Finding buyers is likely the first to handle; it'll guide you in finding targets and provide a certainty that other potential teammates will appreciate. Preferably, find multiple potential buyers for any item you're planning on selling so that you can reasonably negotiate prices- if there's only one guy willing to pay you anything, you'll get underpaid for your effort and risk.

>>279320
This is a horrible idea. I'm in favor.

I vote bedroom shenanigans and meido.

Rynh clearly doesn't want Jehral to be a trap, her ideal Jehral is http://tgchan.org/kusaba/questarch/src/127582668064.png
Unless she wants a big manly Jehral that is wearing girly clothes. Is that what you want, Rynh?

>>279399

In that case the obvious thing to do with the huge pile of money she has is to hire a transmuter to beef Jerhal up a bit.

Then put him in a dress.

Carry him with you. Like throw him over your shoulder or carry him in your arms.

>>279445
do the latter! do the latter!

But really, a quest for some legendary stuff would be pretty cool.
It'd also be cool if you could surpass your mom in power/treasure. Make her feel scrawny.

Let's tease Jehral about women's clothing a little but not actually force him to wear it. Then we go find some alchemists and other magic-related dudes and ask them what monster parts they need.

>>279457

Hint at it, and gauge his expression. Be sure to insist that you think it's a good idea, and if he seems to be okay with it,

put those tight panties on him...

Yes~, yes~.

WHAT THE FUCK GUYS ENOUGH WITH TRYING TO TURN JEHRAL INTO A TRANSVESTITE

... Uh. I oppose this trap, transvestite, thing.

In fact... we should be making Jehral more manly. Yes! And he is our good friend, probably our best at this point! We should get him something. Something he would like.

Ask him what he'd like, Rynh!

>>279465
Seriously, this.

What is this, Mudyquest?

>>279465
>more manly
Hey how about we forcibly make his balls drop?

Barbarian garb for Jehral. It'd be good for a laugh, if nothing else.

1) Make Jehral a trap.
2) Rynh, become a reverse trap.
3) ???
4) Lulz.

Or otherwise, procure necessary supplies for monster hunting.

>>279308
Get one of those smart guys from the Merc guild. The ones that actually know what kinda stuff you should bother bottling up and bringing back.

Also, in afterthought, some magic protection would go GREAT with that magic sword. Maybe a bracer with a magical shield in it? Or something that would make your skin turn aside normal weapons? It'll probably be more expensive than the sword, but the long-lived should favor a good defense.

Jehral is just whining constantly. He can go back to being an expendable mercenary scout if he wants.

Pick up someone clever. Gustav would actually be suited to this. He probably knows what materials are in demand and some way of storing them magically. He might also get along well with your client and customer mages.

After we make Jerhal into either a maid or a leotard-wearing trap, we should grab Gustav and discuss this with him. Jerhal can come along as a bait.

>Dress Jehral in girly clothes and fetish gear.

No way. That's the stupidest idea I've ever heard!

Yet, the tiny boldling beckons to me...

You're pathetic for taking the fetishes of others and being swayed by them.

He would look adorable.

>>279666
You know you want it.

>>279666
That's retarded, don't do that.

Yes do it, but do it later, first we go get more riches. Remember that you are part dragon Rynh, dragons can never have to much gold, NEVER!

Cross dress Jehral is the only way anything will ever get done.

>>279666
Do it. The numbers command you to.

Just put a bow in his hair.

Resist the urge, Rynh. Don't let the shippers tell you what to do!

Find more quests, acquire more gold.

Rynh, we have given you an entirely practical non-fetish set of objectives: >>279380. Use them.

While you did say you'd take steps on the romantic front after the last mission, Jehral doesn't have to be the target and you should really get into some vanilla stuff before you go for the wildly kinky.

>>279681
Nonsense

Dress him up.
Then leave him in a bar.
All by himself.
He's going to be sore in the morning.

>>279666
Before the temptation becomes too great: Little brother little brother little brother little brother little brother little brother little brother little brother little brother little brother.

Well, you could just go for it. Maybe not the full deal but certainly molest the boy.

In the very least we have to find some fun way to embarass him...

>>279685

He'd only be our half brother, and it's a little late for that.

Tell ya what, Rynh. Go have a few drinks with him. He's yer buddy. (Potential for more, perhaps, but definitely buddy.) You can flesh out your ideas on future business ventures. Bring a bunch of paper and something to write with, in case you get some awesome ideas but you're too drunk to remember 'em later.

>>279705
This, is a sound idea.

It won't have been the first time this sort of thing has happened...

>>279685
Keep that up and you will summon Raital

>>279705
This.

also:
>>279666
>>279308

Is it me, or Jehral seems to be colder? Like... more distant?

>>279718
Well it's a good thing Rynh is a dragon then. Warm Jehral up, Rynh.

>>279718
Ask him what's wrong.

Go drinking with him and get him plastered so he'll confess his true feeling about you.

>>279718
He's obviously not been crossdressing enough.

>>279745

Maybe that's why he's distant, he doesn't want Rynh to find out.

>>279740
Then when you don't like what you hear, put him in a maid outfit and sell him to Dagnyr.

>>279747

But then buy him back from Dagnyr during the male maid slave auction, confess your true fetish to him, and happy end.

Gawd, just man up and admit you like him. Get drunk together. Get a room together. Get fucking together.

Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

>>279666

Ignore those voices. Or, at the very least, get yourselves both VERY drunk so that you have an excuse if he regrets it.

In fact, go to a bar anyway! Buy some drinks and hang out with Jehral, he's pretty much your best friend! And there's no better place to pick up an adventure than your local cantina i mean tavern.

Just start drinking. We'll tell you when to stop.

>>279666

Do it. You know you want to...


Then get plastered with him still wearing girly clothes.

Maybe we should trap up Jehral a bit just to mess with him. What's the point of getting rich if we can't use it to do w/e the fuck we want? And getting rich so we can just go out and get more money is kinda stupid, even if we are a dragon.

While we are at it, let's get him some enchanted armor. As much as I love the idea of making him fight legendary creatures in a dress. Trying to fight things like that in a dress will get you killed. Or we can just have his current stuff enchanted. The dress can be what has has to wear while we get his stuff enchanted.

>>279666
He beckons because he is your only friend. That and he still owes you for that handjob. So go get the two of you drinking, it will solve your problems one way or another.

Don't buy anything expensive for Jehral. He's so ungrateful. He didn't come off badly from the chimera slaying job so he can buy his own stuff. He could even have gotten a proper girlfriend while you were busy destroying that golem.

I guess you could buy some little girl clothes on the sly so you can dress him up for the laughs the next time you go drinking though.

Anyway find some kind of ingredient that's in high demand. You need to get the ball rolling on this rather than wasting too much time on Jehral.

>>279777
This.

>>279795
I understand that dragon fewmet is a valuable spell ingredient.

Now Rynh, he's already got enough problems with not being the man in your relationship. You shouldn't emasculate him any further.

>>279666
God damn, Rynh, you're sad. You have one friend in the entire world, who sticks with you for some unfathomable reason, and instead of appreciating them and listening to what they tell you about what they do and don't want out of your relationship you continually push them around and heap abuse on them. What's wrong with you?

Make other friends if you need a sex toy.

I'll lead him into it gradually. I'll "get my hair did"? It's kind of long and stringy at this point anyway, so I could stand to do something with it.

"Oh gods, it's not too girly is it?"
"I guess not, since you're a girl. Allegedly.

>>279999
Ponytails are hot *sagenod*

He's seen the entire package as an elf, how can he doubt your gender?

"A girl that can kick your ass."
"Speaking of asses, you'd better watch yours if you're going to look all girly surrounded by vicious mercs."
"Maybe you should be the one to match out. So small and delicate."

>you continually push them around and heap abuse on them.
That's how you show affection. Insults and physical violence show you care.

Anyway, speaking of emasculating him...

>>279999

That looks a lot better.

"IF I'M GOING TO LOOK GIRLY, I'M GOING TO NEED SOME GIRLY DRESSES. You can help me shop for them."

I have to grab him and hold tight to keep him from squirming away.

"Come on! Please! Anything but that! Even you wouldn't be so cruel!"

"Like hell I wouldn't. Now help me look like a pretty girl, dammit!"

Say to him if you promise to help me out then I will do something for you in return and keep that promise. He will be more willing to do it and give him a kiss on the cheek. He will then do all your bidding.

Point out that he owes you for
THINGS

>>280006

Make sure to pick up some ligerie while you're at it. Then ask Jehral how you look in it.

>>280016
This is a good addition to the cunning master plan. And after all, frilly lingerie is one of the most girly things there is.

>>280009
yes
>>280016
YES [make sure he doesn't pass out from lack of blood to the brain]

>>280020
>make sure he does pass out from lack of blood to the brain

FTFY

>>280016
this

>>280006
Ah! Rynh you clever girl, you!

This is the perfect opportunity to, while getting dressed, ask for puppy-head to lend you some "assistance" getting laced up... when he steps into the changing area, well, we'll let ourselves get creative~!

"HOW DID THIS HAPPEN!?

Okay. I guess this is kind of funny.

>>280049

No, this is VERY funny.

Take a picture so we can manipulate him further. Wait, cameras don't exist.
Wait. Use your convenience magic to do something to the same effect.

Then tell him it makes his butt look big.

Most importantly, steal his regular clothes and hide them somewhere. This is the lynchpin of the whole plan.
