[IC] New Crobuzon & the World Beyond

[GM Marvel]

[[OoC: I thought about it and Selina doesn’t need the gauntlets, really.  She has magic.  The gauntlets should really go to Tomeal or Kubo.  Selina, as she is currently kitted out, is a bit more of a true tank.  Her stance and Steely Resolve forces opponents to attack her while her allies wail on those enemies.  Maybe she could do with a bit more damage, but I think she’s currently just fine there.  As far as the other items...I dunno.]]

[OoC Tomreal then, not to meta-game  but Kubo just joined our characters this minute while we are identoifying items. It would not make sense for our characters to equip him with hard won magical treasure.]

[OoC the amulet of heath makes sens e for you or Tomreal.. as you are our 'tanks']

Technically wouldn't the meta-gaming be giving a stranger a magic item because IRL you know they're going to join you're group?  In your character's reality you just met this person. I don't recall even a detect alignment or detect thoughts being used to make sure they aren't a danger to the group. And you're currently in an area where you can't even rely on your spells to protect you if he turned out to be a bloodthirsty killer.

Tomeal swore to defend the people who saved his life.  Which I think only Betimi and Selina are left from the original group. So he will be watching anyone who joins.  The kobolds are probably good people though because he's known them for awhile.
