I am on vacation until Thursday and may not have internet access, so please DMPC Bubba as necessary.

BT: With 10-1 odds on the first fight, when Valgrim bet 250 gp, it means he received 2500 gp in return, with a net profit of 2250 gp. Correct? Or am I doing something wrong?

Feres also bet 250 gp.

Vug did too.

As did Bubba

I forgot that Vug also gets two new alchemist formulas. I'm open to suggestions, but I was leaning towards Monstrous Physique I (poor man's Fly and/or Water Breathing and/or Barkskin and/or Disguise Self), Displacement or Arcane Sight. There are lots of buff-type formulas available, though (e.g. Elemental Aura, Thorn Body).

I actually don't remeber if i did in time, checking through the thread. Displacement is a great defensive one. Allows her to fly and carpet bomb without having to worry too much about archers and the like.

You can all cash in on your bets. Honestly, I just forgot how many bets you made.

Vug, given that that plug supposedly seals a churning horde of ghouls, I say you can't develop sunlight bombs soon enough.

I'll be on vacation until Sep. 16, so I probably won't have much chance to post until then.

Sorry moved to new house, 52 hrs without sleep, internet not installed yet. Will post later

Treasure list (since I have not updated it in awhile, if you wish to claim anything) with sale value

Magical:
Potion of Cure Serious Wounds
Scroll of Restoration (goes to Friar)
Scroll of Heal (goes to Friar)
Brooch of Shielding (35 points) (750 gp)
Wand of Inflict Moderate Wounds (32 charges) (2250 gp)
+1 Chainmail (650 gp)
+1 Light Fortification light wooden shield (2076.5 gp)
+1 Unholy club (9150 gp)
Periapt of Health (3750 gp)
Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds
Scroll of Death Ward (goes to Friar)
Two scrolls of Ethereal Jaunt
Three pinches of Dust of Tracelessness (375 gp)
Two blocks of Incense of Meditation (goes to Friar)
*Wand
Sustaining Spoon (2700 gp)
Three vials of Oil of Gentle Repose each containing a Kyuss worm (taken by Vug)

Non-magical:
Trophy from 1st fight
Trophy of dwarven gladiator
Jade holy symbol of Kyuss worth 100 gp
Bag of 300 gp
Four deep green spinels worth 100 g each
Three aquamarines worth 500 gp each
Seven blocks of exotic incense worth 200 gp each

How about Feres takes one Scroll of Ethereal Jaunt and Vulcan takes the other?

Don't forget the 5,000 gp that came with the silver dwarven gladiator trophy.

Okay, so I'm not much of a gambler. If we each won 500 gp from our bets of 500 gp each, does that mean we each now have 1,000 gp?

The net gain would be 500 gp.

Thanks!

Communal Resist Energy sounds like a plan. We should also spread out to minimize the effectiveness of any breath weapon.

So, how do they keep beasts like Madtooth from just jumping into the crowd and eating spectators?

By putting tasty adventurers in front of the beasts?

I was mulling over the idea of summoning a satyr to cast Fear on the froghemoth, but I suspect having a panicked froghemoth rampaging through the stands would be frowned upon.

That would be awesome! Would probably get Rankanian or whatever his name is, disqualified. It's his monster.

According to Friar's calculations, most of us passed level, right?

Yes, I suggest you spend the rest of the day recuperating and levelling up. If you like, you can go exploring during the night. Only Feres won't be able to pray for new spells before dawn.

HP: 1d8 ⇒ 6

That's cool. I did leave a few spell slots open this morning prior to the battle (2 - 2nd level spell slots and 1 - 4th level spell slot). Per the rules for preparing divine spells, I just need 15 minutes to fill those slots - I plan to prepare two more Bull's Strengths and a Freedom of Movement. I'll also use one of my Pearls of Power to recall Shield of Faith.

Rolling for HP: 1d8 ⇒ 6

May I learn Communal Air Walk and Viper Bomb Admixture from Ultimate Combat?

Shouldn't be a problem. :)

Feres is leveled-up and ready to go.

Awesome, Vulcan just makes it to 9

How much have we won from gambling so far?

If you've bet the maximum each time:

Feres is willing to pay 100 gp out of his share for the jade Kyuss symbol so he can destroy it.

If Vulcan doesn't want one of the Scrolls of Ethereal Jaunt Feres will take both as part of his share.

Bubba would like the shield.

Valgrim will take the potions of healing as a group items and store them in his Bag of Holding.

Can you guys roll Spellcraft checks for the unidentified wand in the main thread to identify it? You can try once per day.

Spellcraft1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31

The cleric was carrying a Wand of Inflict Moderate Wounds with 32 charges. Is that the one?

Vulcan's leveled, Greater Elemental focus is feat choice.

The cleric was carrying a Wand of Inflict Moderate Wounds with 32 charges. Is that the one?

No, there was another wand that we found, in the demon chest.

Got it. That was a Wand of Restoration with 36 charges. Note that you can't use it if the use of the spell needs extra material components, such as removing a permanent negative level.

Friar: Scroll of Restoration, Scroll of Heal, Scroll of Death Ward, Scroll of Ethereal Jaunt (x2), two blocks of incense of meditation, Wand of Restoration

Bubba: +1 Light fortification light wooden shield

Vug: Three vials of Oil of Gentle Repose each containing a Kyuss worm
