Report 799

Report #799
Skillset: Brewmeister Skill: New
 Org: Harbingers Status: Completed Mar 2012
Furies' Decision:
Solution 1.
Problem: At present there are very few options, bar stripping off all your
clothing or having a racial resistance, to deal with the movement penalties
caused by hot weather. This report proposes to give Brewmeisters an ability
which would serve tea recipes 'iced' thus granting a reduction in this penalty.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #1: Iced Tea - Using # snowball(s) can ice a cup of tea
 such that it grants resistance to heat-induced
 movement penalties.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #2: As per Solution 1 but gained also in the Cooking
 skill.

I really like this idea, and it gives brewmeisters a bit more use. I wouldn't
give it to cooks personally, but that is just me, as I feel they have a lot of
use at the moment as is.

Sure, sounds like a great idea. Should also be a hot drink ability to do the
same for cold so that no one has to become a blanketmonster when they walk into
a cold area.

I've also considered envoying Tattoos ElementalTattoo to be changed from 5%
resist elements on elemental plane (which seems too narrow) to more broadly deal
w/movement penalties associated w/weather patterns. I like the intention of this
report, but feel the "snowball" idea doesn't mesh well w/brewmeister (teas &
beers, albeit an odd mix). I agree Brewmeister could use new brews and would not
refute this report.

It's really easy to dress up (I padded my armour), but dressing down is tough.
I need my armour! Thus, I approve of iced teas, but don't think hot ones are as
necessary to provide the reverse functionality.

I like this alright. Fully supported.
---[Raeri on 3/12 @ 00:43 writes]:
Fully support, with potentially a mirrored hot drink too!

Solution 1 supported. Great idea.

Solution 1 is fine, I'm also fine with adding something that will help with cold
---[Tacita on 3/22 @ 14:06 writes]:
To address Janalon's concern regarding snowballs - it is an ingredient in
existing whiskeys/other brew recipes, and as such there is a precedent for using
it in lieu of 'ice' as an ingredient.
---[Viynain on 3/22 @ 18:30 writes]:
Yes, please. I agree with adding iced tea to mitigate heat movement penalties
and likewise desire something for mitigating cold movement penalties.

Support solution 1. Also support a similar skill for cold movement mitigation.
