Agreed on the group loot divy and redeeming captives.

I'll go with the group on exploration but I do have some:

@GM_DBH - How do you want to handle Freya's acquisition of her animal companion? Does he just show up, or do want to RP that out? I'm good either way.

Any thoughts GM?

Sorry, I saw that, then got distracted.

We'll have a little RP for it soon.

I am happy to work with Isabel on rehabilitation. Note that since I'm a cleric you may want to let Isabel lead on this so that I don't get accused of trying to form a religious cult in which you can only be spared if you convert. ;)

(Not that Lisl would do that, but one must avoid even the appearance of impropriety.)

Where-as I, as a mesmerist, am practically obliged to build a personality cult - thank you for being so understanding Lisl. :)

You scratch my back...

Sorry, too busy today for an update. Normal service resumes tomorrow.

Incidentally, @Isabel, I picked the name Lisl because it was the name of a sister of a friend of mine in school... and my friend's name was Isabel!

Been a busy couple days sorry I haven't updated. I'll catch up and update sometime tonight.

Family emergency, will be MIA for another day or so, sorry for the absence.

Real life always comes first. Hope everything turns out alright.

Family always comes first. I hope things go well for you.

Dumb question perhaps - should I assume everything looted or found is normal human sized (and thus carries a penalty to halfling use) unless otherwise noted?

Yes sorry, if it's small I'll note that in the listing.

Sorry all. I'm too busy today to update. It may be slow the next few days as well. I'll let you know tomorrow.

No worries, I appreciate the heads up!

thanks GM_DBH

I'm away from home for the next 10 or so days. Still have access to a computer, and I bought my books with me to sunny Waikanae, so updating will be nearly as regular as always. Depending on what I'm doing that day.

Six party members, right? 650 split 6 ways is 108 gp, 3 sp, 3 cp each with tuppence left over.

OK, sounds like we're doing 100 ea. + 50 in the group fund. Anyone wanna set up the swag bag, or did I just volunteer?

Went back and looked and didn’t see where we had ever actually gotten the funds from our previous Loot. So I tallied it all up and here is where I see we stand.

50 gp
CLW Potion x4
Enlarge Person Potion
Shield of Faith +2 Potion
24 Days Trail Rations
8x Bottles in Case of Herbal Liquor
Arrows x 76

Sold Loot:
Composite longbow - Sold earlier
Rok’s Chain Shirt
Owlbear Hide?
MW Longbow

Sold goods tally:
1,722 GP
336 SP

A good gold split would be 250 gp each, and 222 gp to the group fund.
A good silver split would be 50 sp each, and 36 sp to the group fund.

But then we still have Rok’s chain shirt, is that a private sale or toss in the group Loot/fund?

Also the MW Longbow if anyone wants it, and the composite longbow, what was the strength rating on it, as that will affect the price...

And if we were allowed to skin the owlbear, whatever that hide was worth.

Hunted out the composite longbow in the thread. It was +2 Str, so it would sell for 150 gp.

The best even split would now put our gold split at 270 gp each, and 252 gp to the group fund. That is, until we hear back on the armor, MW longbow, and possible Owlbear hide. For the record Darian threw his original longsword into the loot pile to sell.

Roks chain shirt sale can be split, half for her, half to the party fund.

So it would sell for 50, 25 to you, 25 to party fund. At this point I assume the bow is a sale too. That’s 25 gp each and 37 gp 5 sp to the group fund.

Total split, old and new sales:
PC’s: 400 gp, 50 sp each
Group Fund: 364 gp, 41 sp

Sweet! Thanks for the book-keeping Darian :)

Isabel will spend the gold to masterwork her armor since she has the cash now! :D

I'll be on travel from Sunday (today) - Friday with limited internet access. Will do my best to keep up, but please autopilot as needed.

Thanks.

I'm now back home, though very tired at the moment. So my regular posting schedule will begin again. Thanks for your patience.

When you're ready to move again please post the order in which you are exploring the hexes and I'll get you moving again.

The plan is 18, 17, 16, 9 (1, 2, 7, 8) 3. With the brackets if we're doing well/not dead yet. If we are then we'll go from 9 to 3 and back to Oleg's.

Sorry folks, it turns out my feeling extremely tired and sore is due to my being very sick. Spent most of the day curled in a ball in bed, and just got up now to throw up what little was inside me. Feeling a lot better for that and hope to be back to normal tomorrow.

Still not feeling good at all folks. Sorry, but another day away for me.

Take the time you need!

I’ve added a spoiler at the top of my Alias for the Party Loot.

Holiday has me a bit busy, headed home tonight and will posts when I get in, sorry for the delay

Loot:

Chain shirt - 2
MW Studded leather - 3
MW Studded Leather (Small) - 1

MW Short sword - 3
MW Short sword (Small) - 1
Short bow - 3
Short bow (small) - 1
MW Composite long bow (+2 Str) - 2
Morningstar - 2
Arrows - 220

Grappling hook with silk rope (50 feet) - 4
Breathing tube - 4
Thieves tool - 4

1000gp total between them.

Adding mundane gear to group loot until we sell.

Coin split is 142 gold, 8 silver, 5 copper each, as well as to Party Loot.

The loot from the pitiful cache concealed under the tree.

MW dagger,
A Wand of burning hands (CL 2nd, 4 charges),
A silver ring worth 75 gp,
A spellbook.

Unfortunately, rain seeping down into the cache has
damaged much of the spellbook but five of the spells (identify, mage armor, reduce person, silent image, & unseen servant) remain intact.

Cache gear added to group loot for now until someone claims some of it or we sell.

Also, going to toss my Parade Armor in the Group Loot and take a suit of the MW Studded Leather. Not a major upgrade by any means, but now I have no Armor Check Penalty.

I'm enjoying the great role play happening here, but have you come to a decision on the fate of your prisoners?

We are waiting to see the results of Lisl’s Truth magic on them to see if they are repentant or not.

Basically going to be all Abadar's Truthtelling tomorrow. I don't entirely expect them to pass, seeing how they do murder for hire, but you never know!

"Hang 'em!

...perhaps I'm getting a bit ahead of myself ;)

If it wasn’t clear, Jory will support either decision.

Removed the wand and spellbook from the list for Jory and Freya, respectively.

Isabel wants to show mercy if at all possible - and why is everyone forgetting that they were told to kill us OR drive us off?

Yes - she's too idealistic I know... that's what you lot are for :P

You now have 2 followers for the moment.

Ludi & Katrina are both Rogue 2 and worked for the mercenaries as scouts and infiltrators.

While not happy at the loss of their equipment, the fact that they're not swinging from a rope seems a fair deal to them. :)

Both are Neutral in alignment, so while not too troubled by morals aren't going to run around burning puppies.

What Hex are you going to now?

Continue with previous plan I think, unless anyone has strenuous objections.

The plan is 18, 17, 16, 9 (1, 2, 7, 8) 3. With the brackets if we're doing well/not dead yet. If we are then we'll go from 9 to 3 and back to Oleg's.

Next leg: 8, 15, 14, 13, 7, 1, 2? That’d let us have cleared the entire northern half.

We will need at least 42-54 rations for the next leg of the trip to cover those hexes. That’d be 21-27 gold. We have plenty of coin. Do we also maybe wanna consider (once we know our coin post sale) ordering a wand of some sort for the group?

A wand of cure light never did any harm! Lesser Restoration is another good one for slightly later on.

I like potions or scrolls for lesser restoration - cheaper than a wand. Won't complain about a wand of cure light though! :)
