PLANNING SESSION

"Alright. I promise to wait and do my points after we talk. I've been trying hard not to spend them, but you guys know once I look at a chart, I just toss the points in and have fun." Suzette was slowly working her way through a bottle of wine while sitting on the floor and leaning back against Ozzy.

Ozzy found that wine didn't have much kick anymore and was slowly sipping something Makken called "Baby Dragon's Breath." He claimed they fed it to youngsters of their clan who hadn't grown a beard yet. It was sweet, with cinnamon and peppermint, but burned all the way down his throat, and seemed to sort of pool inside you, building heat.

"We applaud your patience. Ben and Rolly said they had some ideas and I wanted all of us to discuss things."

Ben looked at Rolly, who urged him to go first. "I've been thinking about it and talking to people as I travel, and it gave me a new perspective. The bulk of people in the world don't get through Tier 2 in their lifetimes. It's easier to slowly gain experience in your trade or profession than to constantly be pressing your luck the way Players do. But there are quite a few people in the larger towns that go past that.

"The Legion has an especially large number of middle-Tier professional soldiers. A lot of the info I got is from retired Legionnaires. The most important thing they stressed was that the first 3 Tiers are where you created the base for the higher Tiers. No one suddenly decides to learn magic at Tier 5 or change from a Farmer to a Soldier. They don't have the skills to support the change. Or the mana, or health. Being a Mage is talked about a lot as an example. They learn easy spells that evolve into better ones through study and practice. They spend the Enhancement Points they get on INT and mana. That's just one example, but you can see where I'm going."

He pointed to Ozzy's arm, and then to his own, frowning.

"We can see some of that in going from Tier 1 to Tier 2. I didn't have skills for STR or CON, so I essentially lost the chance to pick up 10 points in each stat. I can start now in Tier 2, but I'll never catch up with Ozzy unless he slacks off on all the skills that give him those stats. I'm not saying you should max all your stats; I'm not even sure it's possible. But Tier 1 is done with—we can't go back and grab those increases. So maybe we need to look at Tier 2 very carefully."

Suzette thought about that and said, "OK, I'm looking at some lovely ways to spend my points in Tier 2. But what do you mean by 'look carefully'?"

"This might sound strange, but I suggest you look at what you don't have—your weak points—then think about ways to increase those." Ben brought up his own sheet.
