Story Post: Iron Man

I must say, this is a place most odd.

I do not think the other monks particularly like each other.  This new monastery is tense, on edge in a way that reminds of the mood when Brother Mayfield was discovered to have hoarded supplies. I have spent much time thinking during my recent Vow of Silence (given to me the very day I arrived. while not peculiar in itself, as contemplation on new situations is best done in solitude, it unnerves me when compared to the other goings-on), and have decided to learn as much as I can about this new place before settling in. I can only hope that my duties as Cellarer allow me enough opportunity to look around, and I hope that the Son of God our Lord smiles upon me as I make my way in this world. I shall make my way to the Cellar, and will see what I can discover there.

OK, questions.

1- The map, particularly the paths to different-lettered maps, is extremely confusing.  How can I get to any Herbs?

2- I was confused over where I should put Story Posts, so I just made a generic post.  Are we still doing the Proposals method?  How’s the dedicated Story Post format coming along?

3- Is there an acutal “cellar” to which the Cellarer can go and work?  Or should I just slink off to the Pantry?

4- Can I use those Movements to gain Books, Keys, etc. *anywhere*, or only in specific places?

5- The King James Version quote things are perfectly legal.  I technically voted twice (making my second vote the “real” vote), and included it in the comments, netting me a total of five Knowledge once the voting on them closes.

6- “Hints” for the Encrypted Rules.  Are they parts of the cipher, or hints about the content of the Rule?

7- My GNDT seems incomplete.  May I change it to fill in the basics, without actually changing myself?

Thank you.

1) Use the Path to the Infirmary (see Movement rule)

2)This Story Post is acceptable

3)Ask AG and e’ll make you one

4)If the Ruleset doesn’t restrict the location, you can do it from in the middle of a wall for all we care.

5)Ruleset - “After that Proposal becomes Enacted or Failed, e may increase eir Knowledge by 1 at any time in the next 24 hours, up to 1 per Proposal e did this on”

6)You can answer this easily by obtaining a hint.

7) It seems complete to me, but nobody would complain if you set your Blessings to 0.

8) A+,  for  Story Post.  Bible verses would also add flavor.

Hopefully I was able to answer all of your questions in IRC. If you have any others, feel free to ask, post them, etc. Good luck!
