What do dwarves make ale from? Imported grain would drive up costs (yields from growing grain underground or on mountains can be disappointing). Although fermentation might be easier in a cave. Can ale be made from mushrooms, lichen, or other fungi? Do dwarf brewers keep their "secret ingredient" a mystery to avoid driving off squeamish customers? Possible answers are obviously setting dependent.

Unused campaign idea: For AD&D 1st edition. The players all create name level characters. They find a Deck of Many Things and a Ring of Wishes on their first adventure. The rest of the campaign is dealing with the fall out.

"Adventurers! Your quest is to collect what the peasants owe to their lord!"

"Taxes?"

"Rent."

"Silver?"

"Eels."

"What."

"Y'all wouldn't shut up about historical accuracy."

Medieval English paid their rents with smoked eels. Such payments were increasingly replaced by currency starting in the 13th century, but it continued into the 17th.

Tinkering aroung with #FoundryVTT for our upcoming #13thAge campaign, #ShardsoftheBrokenSky. We'll also use the 2nd edition playtest documents. And #JamesSemple's official #13thAgeSoundtrack as also been added, obviously.

@p_snft Ehrlich gesagt, nach den Erfahrungen in #SH sitzen da lauter "Sturköppe" im #A20-Projekt. Ich fürchte, in NiS wird es auch nicht besser sein. Das geht nun schon seit Jahrzehnten so (ab erster Planungsphase). Es arbeiten sich alle aneinander ab. Vielleicht sind die Betreffenden ja bald mal in Rente 😉 Vorher wird das nichts mit der Einsicht, dies Projekt endlich aufzugeben. Was schon steht, könnte man ja dann zur Fahrrad-Bahn #F20 umbauen 🙂
