Dear Collegue,

I, Bustier Cassanova d'Attentourt, use this brochure to advertise the Amia Crafters and Traders Federation, a guild for merchants & craftsmen. This guild will further the well-being of it's members, determine fair prices for its member's services, explore new markets and secure resources needed for crafting trade goods.

Contact me if you feel this Guild can be of use for you, and you can be of use to the Guild.

Signed,

// OOC description

The Amia Crafters and Traders Federation (short: Amian Traders) is a non-political faction for people that like to craft or trade stuff. There’s no real leader, just an NPC that takes you in when a member allows you into the guild building, and one that manages your resignation when you want to quit. This way we don’t get many conflicts, I hope.

Requirements:
* no LG or CE alignment
* 10 skill ranks in either Appraisal, a crafting skill, Persuasion OR Lore
* 25.000 gold in cash (you only need this when becoming a member and it's not taken away)

Send me a PM if you are interested.

// Ehm, I would put in the INT and CHA requirements, or make them at least 9

10 isn't that high, and with less then 9INT you can't even talk straight... so that doesn't sound right to me...

(PS: i've got plans in the line for someone who will meet your reqs, will start playing him "soon" and i'm in your timezone, will send a PM when he's meeting the reqs)

I doubt Jynx would be interested in joining a merchant guild (she's CE anyway), but I do think that bardic knowledge lore ought to be counted. It's not some bonus tacked on - even though the GetBaseSkill is buggy and treats it as such. You can still get the full 50 bonus on top of it, and by the rules it is a natural class ability. A level 20 bard, even having spent no skill points, has 20 natural lore.

\// Belgian: I removed it because almost anyone has either and I don't see why a crafter needs high Cha, for example.

// Aleph: We're a Crafter's and Trader's Federation, not a choir or poetry declamation circle or such natural habitats of the average Bard. The addition of Lore was a nice gesture anyway. All requirements have been lowered, and I think it's a quite reasonable set for what you get in return.

What -do- you get in return?

Does the INT and CHA have to be a natural 10 or higher? or can it be a result of stat-boosting items?

//No more Cha or whatever... I'll update my post...

//You are a nosy git, Infernal.

same question, here basically

is it
raw skill points
skill points including natural ability modifiers
skill points including abilities and item boosts/buffs

// Think you can cross skills boosted by items off the list. Otherwise everyone would qualify.

//The reason they are in is to promote people taking those skills. A nice, clean, completely OOC reason. It's the clean ability or skill, ie: what you invested. Or whatever GetSkillRank returns, for the scripting minded.
