Map of Thyrela (Basic) and initial survey plans

Map of Thyrela (basic entries for Royal Order of Surveyors)

Leader: Bernard

Other characters: Yoshi, Nob (the kobold)

Surveyors are looking for:

 1. Ideally an abandoned village or ruins in a river valley where the river tracks out to the coast and a good harbour;

2. Ideally somewhere near established local villages (preferably friendly)

3. Access to trees/lumber

4. Party to include several geologists/delvers to survey for precious metals (if found we will take a less desirable village location in order to stake a claim around a commodity we can build wealth from)

5. Party to also include a small (say 20) soldiers to protect survey party and who can be left behind to secure a site if need be. We will need provisions for 6 months for any party left behind. 

6. Party members included in the survey party will be Craig's two characters and Paul's scout only at this stage. All other members will stay back as the preparation and settlement party.

Specialists, protection, royal surveyors, transport and supplies covered in you CP costs (currently 7). The survey is expected to take 3 months (2 weeks there and back with 8 weeks on the ground).

 

How it will work (I have a table, or will have) which lists possible outcomes of your survey. You get 4 d100 rolls (the higher the better with the cutoffs every 10pts e.g. 20, 30, 40, 50) next time we catch up. Basically those on the survey get to make them. You can add CP to increase a roll (e.g. get a 66, add 4 CP to get it to 70) before you take the next roll. That will give you 4 "settings" to choose from. Depending on the skills your characters have you may be able to roll for extra benefits.
