I have to say that I've been deeply impressed by the citizenry of Riverhaven. My main character has avoided it for years for personal reasons, so I've never really had a chance to meet many of the people who make their homes there.
I'm sure there are a few bad apples (as there are in every city...) but everyone I've met thus far has been extremely helpful and friendly.
It's a lot harder starting up a new character than I remember it being (what, no ilmenite tipped wands in wildland goblins???), but Riverhaven has made the arduous first few ranks, the beatings, the inevitable deaths... (the getting stuck at the bottom of the slippery dockside ladder due to being too wounded to climb back up it and having to gain three ranks before being able to climb out again... the getting lost in the UnderWharfs... etc...) ... a lot more fun. The Empaths especially have been really kind to my broke, perpetually beat up newbie.
So thank you!

I'm glad you guys like the fishmonger - yes, he's a bit more streetwise than Sir Robyn, so he's more likely to spot the pocket foraging.
I haven't posted for a while, so figured I'd let you know some of the other things on my plan list for Riverhaven:
- Jewelry store (semi-custom jewelry, similar to Eorie in Rossman's)
- More cards for the card shop, as well as other paper products
- Adventurer's garb (think Frank Frazetta and Boris Vallejo, then dial it back to the point where I won't get that mom-like look thinking of my daughter wearing it :)
No plans for a blackboard to record record fish, I'm afraid, but I may be able to get the fishmonger to carry some bait and other supplies. You'll have to have your own pole if I do that, though.
No time estimate on when this will be done, though, so don't get too antsy. The card shop is in QC, the other shops are in the design stage, so they'll be a while. I just wanted to say hullo, and give you a heads up on some of the things being planned.

- custom jewelry store...
Don't suppose it could be actually linked, in, the gem buyer shop.
- artificer/Lockshop
This has always been contentious, could we get one of the pair turned into something other than a 'shop'? Maybe the artificer could become an abode or a building or an enclave and leave the lock shop a lock shop?
Could we maybe get a few more basic bottom line items in both shops?
Namely, blanks in the lockshop (maybe not listed but definitely availible)
Arm/tail bands set with cambrinth in the artificiers?
Carving impliments in either, with advanced carving tools released when advanced carving is released.

re: custom jewelry shop, no, the gemsmith doesn't own the jewelry shop. Not nearly enough sense of style. -snickers-
re: artificer & locksmith shop, they're easily entered by typing "go art shop" or "go ord shop" - no plans to change them.
re: expanded inventories, I'll think about that and talk to the teams which own each shop (magic team for artificer, so no carving knives there, and the thief team for the lockpick shop) to see what they think.

Problem in Plat - Boar hunting area east of Riverhaven on 06/19/2007 03:15 PM CDT
My commoner went to haven to hunt boars, and was completely blocked from the area by the voice of eylhaar. From assisting speaking to a game master it was his impression that the area supposed to be blocked off is only the swamp troll or clerical quest area, not the area with boars.
Can someone please look at the area, as my commoner is ready to fight them weapon/defense-wise, but cannot get into the area.
The room in question is the following:
[Northeast Wilds, Deer Trail]
The narrow trail is barely discernible as it twists through the dense scrub. Every bend and crook has some purpose known only to the instincts of the animals that forged the path. Nearby bladebrush fronds bristle menacingly, keeping animals and adventurers at bay.
Obvious paths: north, southeast.
the messaging I get when i try to enter is this:
>se
You halt in your tracks as a shadow passes over your vision. A cold silken whisper tells you, "Eylhaar am I. Heed this warning, for given lightly it is not. Lead you to Myself this path would before the appointed time. Return you may when such an inexperienced kitten you are not."
If I try to sneak in i get this :
sneak se
Your efforts at stealth are ruined by your involuntary yelp as an emotionless voice whispers, "Slink by Eylhaar you cannot."
it also involuntarily unhides me.
I HAVE taken commoners to this area to hunt in TF.
Thank you.

*the problem is, it is blocking the boar area. not only the trolls, which i know not to pass the pierwalk anyway, and the drychis can only be accesses by going to a certain place and following the voice. I KNOW not to do that. :-) i just wanna hunt boars. they're really the next critter on the hunting scale, swarm halfway decent, and teach well.
Besides which, you can run down as a newbie to the adan'f area and collect armor, or at least you used to be able to do so, or run into a mammoth in an invasion.... even in plat... :-)
so if they want to change the voice ... if you want to proceed, then type YES, if not, go back...
or something. just let me have the option. I just wanna fight some boars.

Re: Problem in Plat - Boar hunting area east of Riverhaven on 06/20/2007 06:40 AM CDT
theres a work-around for rock trolls though, with sufficient climbing ranks you can get into the area, even as a commoner.
I did find a couple ways to get into there.
1. moongate. not always feasible because theres not always a MM awake or in the same province << Active Players: 14 >>
2. have another character drag me in. <can't just go in a group, gotta be dragged>. which is really silly, because the character that can go in there is an empath that can't dance with them yet.
anyway, can the barrier be changed to admit commoners with favors? <i got some to see if it made a difference - it didn't. even though a commoner gets 6 free "departs".

::snaps his fingers::that's what we need, gingko biloba (pretty please with a queen ann cherry on top, Razah?). Oh, and it's 5 departs. Without favors, #6 will dump you back into the character manager. It's a nice, evil way to get rid of mules who started becoming useful.

Re: Problem in Plat - Boar hunting area east of Riverhaven on 06/22/2007 07:15 AM CDT
It's not only in plat.
It's a level requirement, appearently some gm decided way back when to place it just south of the best spot for lavender.
It doesn't check skills or favors.
It only checks level ? 5 ?
This opinion brought to you by soylent green. Results will very from person to person.

Additionally, there is a random chance of a soul hit as you pass through, even if you're well above the level it's checking for.
Proposal: Remove this soul hit all together.

Nigurf Liitseit is pleased to announce the opening of the Scrivener's room in the back of Smaragdaus' Joy in Riverhaven, selling origami paper and greeting cards. Please use caution in purchasing your cards, as there are several racks available. If you STUDY your purchase, you'll find out how to use them.
In addition, a few merchants have found their way to the city for the weekend. While it's not a festival, it may brighten your day and lighten your purse.

Yeah but I probably won't be able to make it on for very long until late Sunday if at all, so uh... be good to know if it was going to be all day Sunday until early Monday or what.
