Re: OOC Chat
Well, Barnutan didn't sign up to be a member of a murdering band of road pirates.
As a player, I signed up for island exploration and, when that didn't work out, I signed on for politics/diplomacy.
That, at least in my estimation, leaves us at an impasse.
If S tries to kill them, as a character, B would defend them. Since I have zero appetite for PvP, I would have him run away instead. I would likely leave the game at that point.
If S decides to just rob them, B would probably switch sides after S had relieved them of their cash. He would pledge his service to the injured parties. That would also be game-ending.
So those are his cards; they're on the table.
