I can't account for either of their tastes', Syllawen or Varth's
. I CAN say that Syllawen does like the exotic, and the dangerous, but heavens me, what have I gotten myself into?
Here is the preview of the map I am working on atm. I'm going to make it look like a drawn map first, then do a geographic version of it. Counties are still to come: http://i42.tinypic.com/2b15w9.png
That. Is. Epic.
What do you use to do your maps? A wacom tablet and PS?
How do I sign up, and what's with the radical departure from Allegedly-Gold "Drakes" (I suspect they're less than a single karat in purity) toward a foreign currency never seen nor used in Tamriel?
You create a character sheet and get it approved by the GM's (Me or Wooly). And that is because gold, even in low purity, is still gold. It works good with game mechanics to use just gold. However game mechanics don't mean squat in this RP and neither does any Bethesda created lore after the OB crisis. The Copper, Silver, Gold, currency system works rather well. Copper is an easy to find cheap ore, silver slightly more expensive, and gold much rarer and more expensive. It makes dealing with currency a little bit more fun.
However now that I think about it I think that gold will be only 10 silver and not 100.
So for the final version of the currency system.
100 coppers = 1 silver
10 silvers = 1 gold
1000 coppers = 1 gold
Coppers are just called Coppers
Silvers are sometimes called Drakes
Gold is sometimes called a Septim.
