I'll get the chronicles sent over the weekend.
In the meantime, Dr. Zephyr, resurrection is pretty costly, and i saw your gold at 1500 gp.
He does not, unfortunately.
Also, dayjob rolls please if any.
I will contribute all the gold available to me GM to the ressurection cost.
That would be your mission gold then, am i to understand that right?
You've your own costs to worry about first.
In worst case, herr Zephyr can sell stuff to compensate any shortcomings.
So 2000 gp already comes off the chronicle sheet so that Enora can access her gear. From the gear she can pay the raise dead and the 2000 gp for the restoration.
Whatever remains from the chronicle sheet after she used the 2000 gp she gives to Dr. Zephyr.
That makes pregens atreasure trove....
Enora, who's to receive the chronicle?
I just realised that I have not provided the pfs number of the character this should apply to:
# 314670-15
Faction: Dark Archive
Suussmaar
No day job
Here you go!
Sele, Vassago, will you fund the raise dead with prestige or money?
If so, what are the current amounts for the reserve to use?

Given that the time it took the rescue party to find me was just as long as it took for me to rise, couldn't you just as soon rule that rescuers beat rise in the event of a tie, rather than the other way around (i.e. they found my body on the 4th day sometime before I rose)?
You consistently seem to err on the side of whichever interpretation of the rules is more punitive. You don't need to.
That would make a big difference for us all.
Your transformation started in the night of the fight.
Harlis was KO for twice an 8 hour rest, to wake up in the positives.
That's 16 hours after your death, around late afternoon.
I count 4 days for you as 4 nights from death.
I count the 4 days for the recovery team as early as late afternoon of that day.
If the dice for them were lower than yours, they'd have found you before you rose as an undead.
Your situation had a 16 hour head start, is what it comes down to.
And to be fair, in regards to your point of punitive, i've approached the boss' handling of you guys' KO'ed state easier than what would usually be 'everyone's KO, this results in a TPK'. I didn't need to, either, she could've done CDG both of you easily.
I hope to assume this clarifies enough.

Harlis has a total of 1856.2GP in cash after the loot from this adventure which he can put in. He also has 200gp of diamond which he can convert to cash for 2056.2GP he can contribute without selling gear.
Zephyrus note that you should only have a single permanent negative level after the resurrection. So you only need to spend 9PP total (5 for rescue party + 4PP for the restoration).
GM, how much gold did we get for the scenario?
1283 gp.
Really? It should be more than 4K and we defeated all but two of the vampires.
You have to beat them all to get the reward.
Charito was a reward encounter, as was the inner sanctum.
One gains rewards for encounters beaten.
If you can point me to anywhere that says differently, feel free, otherwise this is simply unfortunate.

Carefully check the text of the adventure segment by segment.
From what I've seen from the games I've DM'd, they usually dole out gold at a relatively even rate, saying "if the Pathfinders did X in location Y, award them Z gp" , scene to scene (not even necessarily just the combats) - it would be very atypical at the least to lock 3/4 of all the gold into a single encounter.
They did, actually, in this case.
The sanctum encounter is roughly worth 3/4 the mission's money.

Does it specify we must've killed them ALL to get ANY?
What pisses me off is that I spent several rounds working hard to revive Harlis because I thought he'd be better at taking her down and didn't want him to die, but if I'd just spent those rounds (not to mention that Boon) on myself and attacking her....
As i've said before, an encounter is to be defeated to reap the rewards.
The feasters of the heart are/is the cult. Defeat them to get your monetary reward. Milena is still out there, able to reform it elsewhere.

I feel the same frustration Zephyrus, that curse almost completely shut Harlis down. That being said is without those efforts everyone else would be likely looking at a rescue team extra at minimum. Its a shame that you were hit the hardest when you expended the most beforehand. Hopefully we can all pool together enough to buy the resurrection in recompense.
Okay. So in this case Enora and my character are unfortunately dead. Which is ok.
The chronicle sheet does not provide the 2000gp so she can’t access her gear so she can’t buy a raise dead :-/
Enora will thus give all her chronicle gold to the doctor.
Sele, that's because i hadn't made them yet.
How much can to contribute to the resurrection?
I am about to start shortly with the basics, but can't finish them completely, since i lack a few bits of information, such as how much Vassago is able to contribute.
@ Dr. Zephyr,
Resurrection's cost can also be partially funded exchanging PP for money, at 375gp per Prestige Point spent, up to 1/2 its cost.
Currently you spend 5 for retrieval and you mentioned covering your restoration yourself with prestige.
Funding cost for resurrection: 10,910 gp
Harlis' share, 2056.2 gp
Sele ?
Vassago ?
Zephyr's current money: 1500
Enora will contribute her share to the doctor.
Hate to bring it to you, Enora, but here's what's mentioned in the guide, regarding permanent death of a PC.
[Summary revival options]
"If the player can’t or chooses not to utilize any of these options, the character is permanently dead. That character’s player receives a Chronicle sheet for the adventure with no XP, Prestige Points, gold, and boons."
You'd receive nothing to help fund the doctor's revival.
Right, that means Dr. Zephyr's own share in the resurrection is 6853,8 GP.
She opted that earlier.
A pregen's loot can be sold, provided she pay 2000gp to get access to that option.
However, as the reward money is below that amount, she is unable to.
GM Chyro, thanks. I understand now.
Do you see any possibility that we receive partial credit for the last fight? To be honest I do not really care my character's death as she is only low level but that could very much help the group if Enora could get the 2000gp.
Not according to the guide, at least.
I'll ask on the board, but i would't keep high hopes, to be frank. :o
Right, so i had some responses, which confirmed what i thought as the answer already.
The monetary reward is only awarded when defeating the encounter.
Ok thanks. Then Enora is dead. No chronicle sheet. Sorry Dr Zephyr!
Ahhh, you are right!
Yes, I even have 2000 gp with the current character that I can spend immediately and take off the tracking sheet!
That means I get the whole money for the chronicle sheet plus the whole gear money 11500 gp.
That means I can use 5,450 gp for raise dead plus 2000 gp for restoration and Enora is alive.
Then there are still 4,050 gp left.
Plus the chronicle sheet 1,283 gp.
That means Enora can give Dr. Zephyr 5,333 gp.
Lol. Zephyr, you owe her big, with a capital
Btw, is Spenser back yet?
Btw Enora, you could hold onto that reward money of yours.
Dr. Zephyr can help fund his revival with his chronicle money.
Pregen funds: 4050
Dr. Zepher funds: 2783
= 6783
4127 left.
2000 Vassago
2056.2 Harlis
= 76.8 gp left from somewhere.
Some misc items the doctor could sell?
Wow! So glad this worked out! Thanks GM! Thanks guys!
A different question.
Provided i can find my maps thereof, would you like to play a custom dungeon crawl, instead of a PFS mission?
It was designed for lvl 6-7'ish PCs, i'd not put lvl 8+ in it.
Maybe as a trial run to see how any of the low PFS pcs in your rosters would work at lvl 7.
Or current lvl 7 PCs, for that matter.
I am on vacation for three weeks now so no further games for me, unfortunately. :-)
