[1] - Has access to chain but due to heat I assume not wearing
during normal riding. Access to helmet as well. But not
assumed worn daily.
[2] - Chain not worn due to heat.
[3] - Assume dress can be taken off for normal clothing and ease of
movement (flying). Due to dress and normal clothing assume
leather armor not worn due to heat inside wagon. Other weapons
can be hidden in wagon inside compartment for access.
[4] - While driving can still get away with a helmet as "protection"
from a fall. While driving hard to have sheathed Tulwar but
could store above driver position on roof storage rack. But
dagger assumed worn constantly.
[5] - Servants could get away with Leather but one with Ring Mail
could be seen as rare. So assuming leather is worn. In driver
mode wouldn't have access to other gear.
[6] - To fill role Strie'bog would not have longbow on back but his
horse as entertainers don't typically have such weapons.
[7] - Shu would not wear armor due to heat inside wagon on any typical
riding day.
[8] - Too hot to wear armor most days inside wagon.
[9] - May not have access to bow or weapons depeneding on riding location.
[10]- "Educated" Healer could get away with wearing leather armor on
the road to proetect oneself from bandits. Dagger is assumed
but other weapons could be suspicious for role.

* Final comments
Clothing is what I will assume at any one time. Same for armor
and weapons. For quick access. For other items you will have
to do some digging to get them. For those riding in the wagon
weapons can be on seats or hidden in compartments. Will assume
that magic items are stored in wagon hidden compartments and not
on any horses or in top storage. Many items can be stored on top
of the wagon and will assume some items there. This will be mainly
the least used items or camping gear. Stuff used often enough will
be on horses.
The wagon rear seat is dangerous to ride on as it was called the
"chinaman" seat as it was cheap. It has ropes but is a dusty
seat.
If you wish to change your role position to say something else
in generic terms like "rear guard" instead of forward/flank for
example then let me know. If you wish to define a skill use let
me know by the deadline.
For Kiet/Kell will assume half day driving time (6 hours off and
6 hours on during the 12 hour riding day ccycle][. For encounters
will assume 50% chance for who is driving and who is on horse. Will
do like Kell morning/Kiet afternoon/Kiet morning/Kell afternoon
type of work schedule unless stated otherwise.
I will not concern myself with food. I will take off rations for
characters. Hunting is possible and can supplement for meat meat.
But near Katai province could be dangerous to hunt.
If need any changes to above let me know.
