Chosen Ones, Part 4 (Patreon)

By this point in the game, we picked up a new player and the real game is now a bit on the large side, with five total players when everyone can make it. Bingle's survival is a bit difficult, as a result, but the group has had some fun ideas. In particular, they've named the Dark Nation currency "dark o's", because they're circular and come from the dark nation. The Water Nation currency is, of course, called "currents". This section of the game involved a lot more discussion of currency exchange and the worth of goods - while it's not great for a podcast narrative, money is often one of the more important ways players interact with roleplaying games. In Hero, however, we can buy everything with experience points, so the haggling is more for flavor than anything.
