Nah man, losing money to a Tymoran in town means she favors you in the dungeons. It's her version of a tithe.
Lose 10 bob in town for advantage at the DMs discretion in the dungeon. Hell I give my players an inspiration point anytime they gamble with a Tymoran; they can win the bet or something more important later. I think of it like the Luck domain from 3.5e.
This situation is an example of idiots on both sides. The activist could have looked at Potato production in France and Filipino Farmers could have looked at the US South prior to enriched flour. Grow Golden Rice for export and it will become a commodity crop. I know several farmers in the US that would love to grow Golden Rice and no-one outside the Philippines can get the stuff due to the genetics group that is stupidly restricting it due to grain quantity. IF the Philippines doesn't want it the rest of the world isn't that dumb. You just got the money for humanitarian reasons you lucky fucks.
I’ve been really enjoying John Scalzi’s catalog- Started with Starter Villain (delightful!), The Kaiju Preservation Society (Sweet..), Lock In + Head On (fun who-done-its), The Android’s Dream (clever, enjoyable read), Agent to the Stars (funny, creative, pretty good)....
I was thinking about how I missed having an indoor thermometer that measures humidity. It's such a small specific thing, one I'd never think of getting unless pushed to it (which I was by one particularly dry winter). But I like having one now....
That's the thing though, their best track on the album, and probably their best ever, is about why they stick it out with each other anyway (at least as a band).
San Fransisco 1880 would be a plausible setting. The only one that would kinda be out there would be the Samurai and even that's not too far of a stretch.
Actually there are several pretty good settings in the 1860s-80s, California, New York, London, Hong Kong, and Egypt (Suez Canal constructed 1859-1869). The more I looked into it the richer it got.
