Thank you.
Showing up with stones already?

As far as showing up with items, I have to say no.
The reason being, other players have to "buy" them with points so it wouldn't be fair to allow other characters to just appear with them.
Now, if you want to earn up the points, buy them, and then play as if you've had them all along, that's fine, but before you earn the points for them, I have to say no.
Sorry, but it's just to be fair.

Ok.
Edit: One more question.
In my first post I played it like she found the Huckleberry, is that ok?
Cause I was thinking that it would be ok if she found the herbs herself rather then saying she had it. If one says they have it on hand or even send someone else to get it that they would have to buy it. Now they could not find it and then gather from there, they could only use it on themselves and maybe someone else in that same area of the herb.
Did you understand that?

I thiiiiink I understand where you are going, but still, I have to say no.
If you buy the herbs with points, you can play it out as if your character has found them in the wild, but you still have to buy them.
Because, if you could just play it out that you found them, everyone could just do that, and no one would actually buy them.
So I still have to say no. The ONLY way you can use herbs, stones, or anything other items, is if you buy them. Then it is up to you if you want to play your character having had them all along, or finding them, or whatever, but you still have to buy them either way.
Does that make sense?

Ok so to become a Shaman I have to have 6 posts were I show that she knows about herbs? Will you judge them and to what degree does she need to show her knowledge?

It's not really any degree, just make your post somewhat related to herbs and healing, etc. For example, you can heal and use herbs and all that without actually officially being a shaman.
So, in a post, for example, you could be walking with another wolf, and come across an herb, like Comfrey or something, and just mention/explain that that is a healing herb, used for whatever.
Or, when you earn some points, you can buy and use herbs in a post, that would also count as one of the six.
It's pretty open to whatever really. :)
Does that make sense? If not, please let me know.
