comment What is the cost for the upkeep of gear?
Thank you for this I will use this as the starting point to make the final table for repairs. I never thought of it as the players in my setting do not care to craft much.

comment How do I tell how long my adventure is going to be?
Planning smaller encounters and not defining where they happen so you can randomly, or by choice, place them in the players path is very helpful. You can keep these encounters even if you don't "use" them this time around. Lastly fun is fun, it doesn't need to have a limit or a length. All to often we try to "control the fun", don't do it if you can help it.

comment Frequency of combat encounters in Pathfinder
+1 for the reminder to pay Xp for a roleplaying encounter. It is one of the only ways to help encourage players to continue to do it.

comment Is there a way to quickly generate a library for Ars Magica covenants?
+1 I'd like to add I could make this into a table you could use in a program to pop out lists. The more extended the list the better the program can pump out the lists.

comment Can a custom spell's effect last after the caster's death?
@Nigralbus Yes they might want to be able to cast that spell as well, but one can always add many varied and difficult to get as well as expensive components to cast it.

comment How do I roleplay getting used to violence?
+1 for target emotions. How the player is looking to play themselves is what Role-playing is all about.

comment Is a fumble on a natural 1 an official rule?
@Yandros In 10,000 rolls it will average out to exactly that 1 roll in twenty will come out a 1.anydice.com/program/32d Meaning that multiple rolls would equate to the death of the fighter at their own hand more often than anything else.
