Just a leather thong necklace, with a black opal. Maybe worth 100 g.p. or so.
“Gah! Oh sweet Pelor … After that,” Beldan gestures to Stiggy and Riese, his other hand shielding his eyes, “this Isle of Dread place sounds like a breeze. Hmmm … I think I heard about that place … filled with wingless dragons and giant lizards, and pretty island girls in coconut shell swimsuits …”

"Huh. That's an odd thing for the hag to carry around."

It's faint to moderate divination magic; also some modicum of necromancy involved.
It isn't.....the standard magic item out of the dungeonmaster's guide exactly (nor is it my invention; I see no guidance from the books for this thing so this is my interpretation of what detect magic would show).
"OK. Now that the area seems clear, let's check out the oher doors. After that, we'll destroy the vats."

"Welcome to Fantasy Island of Dread."
Mr Rorke wrestles the Devil....again.

It seems to be a "hag's eye." A coven of hags can create one and scry through it.
You've been on "television," of a sort.
Ha ha! I found the module!!!
What doors do you want?
Alzo, the fairy princess is able to heal everybody to max again.
"You don't get in any more trouble, though....I can't heal you up no more's," she chides, Stiggy especially.

"Break it - it's a spying focus. Unless..." Altai wanders back a bit until he gets to the dragon carcass and the ghoul chewing away at it. "Got you a nice shiny ornament in exchange for the stuff you found for us in the dragon's stomach. Now, just keep munching away."
He returns to the group. "Hags can only have one hag eye, if I remember correctly. If we had broken it, they would just have made a new one. Instead, they can scry away on some dank ghoul hole to their heart's desire." He flashes a smug grin. "Now, let's see where the doors behind the altar lead."
"You don't get in any more trouble, though....I can't heal you up no more's," she chides, Stiggy especially.
"Ah reckon aam nigh invulnerable noo."
<Slurping stops. Tenser licks himself for a while.>
"Rummy!"
"You don't get in any more trouble, though....I can't heal you up no more's," she chides, Stiggy especially."Ah reckon aam nigh invulnerable noo."
Yeah; there's one on the wall.
He looks pretty studly.
That door, at r1, opens into a hallway that goes thirty feet, bends left; there's 50 feet of hall then it goes left and to the door at f1.
There's three doors on the left(i.e. south) side of the back hallway.
None of them even look so much as locked...
"You don't get in any more trouble, though....I can't heal you up no more's," she chides, Stiggy especially."Ah reckon aam nigh invulnerable noo."
"Um ... at least, since you're shorter than the guy who was wearing it, some of the plates sort of overlap, so you can't see too much flesh. Course, you're wider too and - Pelor, don't flex like that!"
chain mail chaps....YEEEEESH!
None of them even look so much as locked...
“Guess I’ll check out these doors … just in case …”
They seem to be just what they appear to be; nothing out of the ordinary.
None of them even look so much as locked...
There's three doors one at 10 feet, 30 feet, and 45 feet away from the bend in the hallway...
This room....appears bigger than on the map. It's 15 feet wide from east to west, and 60 feet long.
There's large stain-glassed windows on the west wall; the misty outside shows through, as does a little sun. (not a mistake).
Theres a 40 foot long, 5 foot wide table down the middle of the room.
There's a door on the east wall halfway down, and a door on the south wall.
At the far end of the table, on a throne, sits a creature, manlike in form, though he seems to be a patchwork quilt of the macabre.
On either side of him, on the wall, is a suit of statuary plate armor
holding a halberd.
He doesn't seem to be doing anything but sitting there on the throne.
"This is... beyond weird. Let's regroup." Altai backs out of the door and closes it quietly. "The thing in there could be anything. However, the real reson we came here was to kill Jag Doom and destroy his army. Let's tear apart the cloning machines first; after that, we can go back and deal with the Corpse King in there. Or just go home."
Knowledge: Arcana 19:
He's back.
<Stig scratches a left buttock that has probably never seen the light of the sun... ever... exposed by one of the all too revealing panels in the armor.>

Or just go home."
"Cloning machines?" Beldan scratches his head. "Was that all those glass tubes and stuff in the other room that you blew up with the fireball? Or are we talking about something else?
"Either way, yep, this place is sure weird. Some patchwork looking guy just sitting there on a throne..." the young man shivers. "That's creepy. We're not doing too badly out of this place loot-wise though. I don't mind sticking it out for a bit longer..."
The vats are just tall brass cauldrons, with a lot of jibberish etced on them, and with something green and gooey inside (think ectoplasmic slime a la Ghostbusters), though, in most cases, the slime is burnt to a crispy smudge within the brass bowls.
You make a big mess. They're pretty much demolished.
There's sticky green ghostsnot all over everybody involved, but it's not caustic or anything. It itches a little bit.
“Yeech,” comments Beldan, looking at the green gunk.
“So what now? Do we head back to the swamp,” he gives a slight, involuntary shudder, “and let them know that the big bad hob is dead? Or do we go and see what’s what with that tattered king?”
Just his teeth.
(It's not Hastur).
"We can go back. The corpse thing is a flesh golem; my best guess is that the suits of armour are animate as well. Constructs are resilient, but largely mindless. I think we can take the thing on the throne."
"Hmmm ... well on the other hand, they're not bothering anyone there are they?" Beldan muses. "And I reckon that golems and such aren't known for their amazing wealth..."
Elgan, having recovered from his near-hag experience, peeks through the door way at the tattered man on the throne.
"If'n ah remembeh's raht, deh constructs is mostly immune tah magics. W'ed havta take 'em all down deh hard way. Which is prolly ok since deh wizzies is mostly outta heavy stuff by now. Prolly. But deh lil' princess iz outta favors fer deh day, an ah'm light on heavy healin' mah-se'f. If'n we iz gonna do dis, we needs tah do it fast an' hard. An' if'n sumone gets hurts he needs tah git outta deh way cuz we maht not be able tah puts him back tagedder agin!"
;)
Stuff:
+2 bastard sword - sell for 8335 gp

In addition, we have 5 unworked diamonds worth 500 gp each - they are not counted into the numbers above.
Also, in addition, Stig'll sell off some of his weapons and armour and put the gold in the party coffers. We don't know what yet, though.

PHB2 has Blade of blood, seeking ray, kelgore's grave mist and I think Spectral hand. Kelgore's (Riese's) grave mist is a fairly good spell. I am gonna scribe Grave Mist, Wall of Fire, and Seeking Ray(4d6 ray of flame, that if it hits gives me a +4 to hit that target with any other ray spells, basically a tracer-spell with damage.). Kelgore's Grave Mist is a decent area of effect spell that saps life from creatures over time. I'll post the details if you need me to.
Does anybody know where pricing of a spellbook is detailed?
