Since the dagger is Pharasma's preferred weapon, I will take one.
Medge will also claim a dagger.
Farmer is also also claiming a dagger.
Medge will revoke her dagger claim in favor of the others.
Bakuu would claim both because she's a dirty Tengu thief, but would be torn because she has a strong respect/interest in Oracles and Clerics. She'd revoke her claim if she sees that both Farmer and Sigrit are interested. :) (Which she does)

Is Bakuu going to claim everything shiny? Is that why she didn't claim the keys?

... Yes. She does enjoy shiny things. :) If the keys ARE shiny, I may have just missed that as a player and she'd try to filch those too. I'll try to be reasonable about it though, she will almost always defer to someone who actually needs the item. Also I'm still taking baby steps into learning the loot system here, and I as a player will never want to take items from people who can actually use them. :|
Are we using the same system for loot that Kyrademon used in Jade Regent? That's the assumption I've been working under.
Yes - only modified per the post i made in the beginning of the discussion board: this post
And - if it comes up - if there is a disputed claim and two people have the same "Claimed Loot" total - then I select randomly. You will always be numbered alphebetically by your character name.
So Aka = 1, Black Willem = 2, Sigrit = 8

I was just curious since chavamana explicitly called those out as "mostly rusty."
There's nothing wrong with wanting all the shiniest stuff. And I'm sure Farmer has a shiny dime that he could trade you for those crummy ol' quarters. ;)

She will trade you 5 dirty quarters today for a shiny dime tomorrow :D
Since after claims and the reversal of claims we only have two claimants, there are no disputed claims.
uniquely shaped mithral dagger (251 gp each) <- FARMER
uniquely shaped mithral dagger (251 gp each) <- SIGRIT
*as mithral daggers they are also masterwork and provide the +1 to hit from the masterwork
mostly rusty set of keys (0 gp)
EDIT: I leave it up to Sigrit and Farmer to determine which person has their dagger and which one needs to recover their dagger from Bakuu.
Sigrit and I decided that she has her dagger.
Then Farmer will have to use his wiles on Bakuu to get the other dagger, I guess.
Hot.
Hot.
I've been spending too much time on Facebook. I was looking for a way to "like" Willem's post.
You can favorite it with the little + in the upper right... but then it just crowds your favorites :)

I like both of these things.
Just so you know, Sigrit is diligently building a lexicon of appropriate ways to refer to people who do not have the fortune to be dwarves.
Catlass: OK
Bad Kitty: No
Wee Little Rat Man: OK, if also offering free food and shelter
Master Willem: OK
The Bird: OK
Source of the Feathers Mysteriously Filling My Pockets That Used to Hold Shiny Metal Disks: Not ok, but possibly justified
Gimpy: OK
Studmuffin: No
Gimpy: OK
Studmuffin: No
Heh heh heh heh to have been a bird on the wall for that conversation.
Hmmm... By the rules all magical items (clothes, rings, shoes, tiaras, etc) other than weapons and armor re-size to work for any person. However, armor does 're-size' itself within a size category - for example the armor you take off the ancient dwarven warlord will fit the effete elven archer just fine.
How, do you guys feel about extending that auto-resizing ability to weapon and armor as well?

I'm fine with it, though it looks to benefit me more than others. Logically, if the same armor will fit a male dwarf and a female elf, it's not bizarre that it would fit a halfling or a ratfolk.
Wee Little Rat Man: OK, if also offering free food and shelter
Master Willem: OK
Technically, "Black Willem" is already a nickname for those keeping track. Then again, he's never introduced himself as anything else.
He also accepted Sigrit calling him a "wee little rat man" (or at least referring to him as such) and there was no bribe at all!

I am fine with this. Magic is magic.
No problem with the resizing thing.
And Sigrits lexicon of polite address for the species-disadvantaged is a work in progress. ;)
resizing is fine.
As a sorcerer, Pasara really doesn't have a dog in this fight. At least not as far as armor is concerned. I don't mind either way.
Medge also has no dog in this fight, and likewise has no objection to autoresizing.
No objections. :)
Magic is magical...
I am at Conjecture all weekend, and my internet access will be worse than anticipated, as in pretty much nonexistent. Willem will be quiet as a mouse until I'm back.
...and I'm back. I was on a panel with Larry Niven, which makes me think they thought I was the other Justin Robinson. Maybe the jazz musician or the basketball player. Probably not the murderer, but who knows.
Misidentified or not, that's cool, Justin. Any good anecdotes?
"Write for the smart ones" was his advice. The panel was about the "art of not explaining" and I was asked if I ever ran into things like that. I mentioned that in City of Devils, I never explain where the monsters came from, and Niven sternly asks me if I knew. When I said I did, he breezily went, "Okay!"
That's awesome, Justin. Don't know if you do, but I'd consider it a benchmark achieved. Congrats.
Thanks, man :) And don't worry, I thoroughly geeked out. I'm still kicking myself though -- the week before in a used bookstore in Oakland I ran across a copy of World of Ptaavs, which is Niven's first novel. AND I DIDN'T BUY IT. I'm still shaking my head over that one.
I've got a copy of World of Ptaavs, picked up from a local used bookstore. If I ever get the chance, I'm totally getting it signed.
"Try not to let it touch you. It can paralyze and it's bite also carries disease."
Not my fault that Pasara looks like a tastier meal than the dwarf wrapped in a breastplate.

I'm pleased that Farmer wasn't its type.

But I have a crunchy coating!

Hi Fenyx.
We are working on Fenyx's wizard and don't plan on introduce him until after you guys are done exploring old Tula Castle
Hi Fenyx. I trust you have checked out what you will be getting yourself into.
Is Fenyx pronounced like the plural of fennic or like the phoenix?
I'm guessing all the letters are silent, and it's really pronounced "Smith."
I'm guessing all the letters are silent, and it's really pronounced "Smith."
SO IT SHALL BE.
I'm guessing all the letters are silent, and it's really pronounced "Smith."
Heh. I used to say that when I saw that 'look' come over a new teacher's face when they saw my name. I'd very quickly raise my hand and say, "Most of it is silent, I pronounce it Mana."
Hi Fenyx (however it is pronounced), and welcome.
Hi!
