Re: [D1 Early Evening] Conversation with Daveth (Open)

[Baelon Drakeson]

OOC: Yield declined - Counteroffer: full Charm defeat consequences (+1 disposition and +1D on checks in the next intrigue). If you decline, you still get your Exchange 2 action. Unlike combat, yielding in an intrigue is not an action.

A piece of advice: with Eloquent, Withdraw is an excellent opening move, though depending on your Will(dedication) you may sometimes end up lowering your ID. Most of the time it will increase, though. As for my mechanics, all I will say is that I didn't make an error - though I did assume that Daveth's status was <
4, though with that roll I the -1D from Bastard Born would not have made a difference (dropping the lowest die would have only dropped it to 27, still 4 DoS).

May request that we keep speculative mechanics discussions in IC threads to a minimum? It makes it hard to follow the IC narrative.
Feel free to hold such conversations in an OOC thread though. :;

[Daveth Coldbrook]

Counteroffer accepted. Figured you would, but didn't see the harm in asking.

I made a copy of all the OOC meta-chatter [url=here][/url], hope I got it all.

And yes, my status is <
4, but even if it weren't, I'd argue that I shouldn't be affected by it, due to my personal circumstances (i.e. close relationship with my brother). Irrelevant, anyway, as you say.

"
You're too kind, Ser Baelon."

[And I imagine our chatter continues on for a while, then we part ways amiably, so thread over? Unless you want to re-intrigue me immediately to persuade me to do something or whatever?]

Edit: Never mind

Ser Jorah stepped forward, signalling for Daveth to join him. As a knight and perhaps the most well respected member of the Household, he felt it his duty to represent them and hopefully show Lord Coldbrook that Daveth has potential.

"
Ah, my apologies, it appears I'm being called upon."
he offers a hand to shake. "
A real pleasure to meet you, Ser Baelon. I hope we can talk again sometime."

[Baelon Drakeson]

"
Of course, Master Daveth. I will seek you out in a day or two, after I have spoken with Lady Isobel about your offer."


OOC: we probably could have continued more or less a-temporally, but I wasn't planning on another intrigue so that's fine. I'm just making friends.

[Colin Corbray]

"
And who don't I find here?"
Ser Colin strides forth in glory with a smile. "
I haven't seen you for many hours Ser Baelon, how is the evening faring for you?"

[Baelon Drakeson]

"
Good, Ser Colin, good. I trust you are well?"

[Colin Corbray]

"
Very well indeed."
Colin replies. "
I had hoped to meet with some more esteemed knights of my own standing but so far so good."

[Baelon Drakeson]

"
You've met me, what else could you hope to gain?"
Baelon says in a joking tone of voice.

[Colin Corbray]

"
That is true Ser Baelon."
Colin replies with a smile. "
I would say we two the finest speciemens of chivalry in the realm, a pity lesser knights have stolen our fame."
