Reynaud was only down 3 Con by my records and only 10 hp...I believe.

That lines up with my math.

Excellent. I'll keep that in mind for the next encounter.

OK, I think the computer is fixed. It's a lot faster, and quieter, though it did get rather hot this afternoon.

There goes a large chunk of our money :(

:(

There is always a life of crime....

eh, you should be able to buy a Restore if someone decides to sell a kidney... In a couple more levels, Seir can help you regenerate it.

I'm with Tony. Let's just steal a kidney...

I think this may be the first PbP game where the discussion tab is as entertaining as the gameplay!

*like*

Moving discussion on Detect Evil here.

I think Garrosh gets it for free, and Seir, as a Cleric, can memorize it tomorrow if the travel takes more than a day. Perhaps cast it while she is asleep? I'm not saying we need to do so, just that if the character is feeling like being safe then go ahead.

just remember, detect evil doesn't light up everyone who is of evil alignment. You could meet 10 chaotic evil fighters, who just finished killing and eating an orphanage full of children and they would not detect as evil, per RAW.

and there are several ways of bypassing it.

And, in Rappan Athuk, you are going to have evil background count that will mask evil things...

also, Sense Motive is always an option to get a read on someone...

GM HoF is right, iirc Detect Evil only detects characters/creatures of level/HD4 or above and those with an Evil Aura (Evil Outsiders, Clerics, etc.), and that's when it's not masked in some way. If Garrosh gets it for free, rely on him when its appropriate and save the scroll for when he's incapacitated, and then be aware that absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Sense Motive should be our go to for working out what people are up to.

Being realistic, the fact that she knows their names means that she is no passing marauder. Either she is a close friend or a relentless enemy; either way she is willing to track for us.

Yea, yea - don't blame me when she morphs into a were wolf and her pack joins her in ripping us to shreds.

Oh god. We have no silver...

Yea, yea - don't blame me when she morphs into a were wolf and her pack joins her in ripping us to shreds.

Oh come on now. Do you honestly think...

*goes back to laughing maniacally and scribbling in his GM journal*

*Facepalm*

Well look on the bright side, at least she's not a barghest.

Garrosh is not a big fan of having his stuff, friends or himself, shredded or ripped into pieces. I'll have to disallow it.

or maybe, she is just a Thing, a la John Carpenter...

Nah... She's cute with her puppies and all...

EDIT: She seems not to have answered me on purpose, or it was as if she did not hear Garrosh?

Nah... She's cute with her puppies and all...

...cute puppies...

EDIT: She seems not to have answered me on purpose, or it was as if she did not hear Garrosh?

Guess I need to get my elvin druid drag on....what did I miss now?

Friends.

You missed me asking her stuff about the cute puppies...

It seems as a group we are not so bad at tracking after all guys :D

Garrosh stares curiously at the wolves and the woman for a moment - "Well met. I am Garrosh. these are your pets, friends or companions?" - he asks flatly.

Don't want to stall the action, but had to ask :P

And that movie is REALLY cool by the way :D

it is an awesome movie.

She would have told you there is little difference between a friend and a companion, but that pet implies ownership, which she cannot and will not claim.

Now I'm worried she'll steal my holy symbol and attack us.

This game is messing with my head...

SUCCESS!!!! Mwa-ha-ha-ha!

Sorry for absence.

Losing current apartment, and currently in search for a new one.

Between the packing, work and hunting I'll be a a little irregular for a bit.

Oh dang, I've been there only a few months ago myself.

I despise moving.

ugh. We are considering buying a new house in the next couple years. I am seriously considering putting all the furniture to the curb and buying new. Then it would just be gaming supplies, 2 tons of stained glass, tools, dishes, camping gear

Been there just about a month and a half ago, and again about two weeks ago... It was not pleasant.

sometimes I regret that tiny houses weren't a thing when I got out of college. I would have so loved living in one back in my 20s, and being able to take it with me.

just use a Tiny hut spell.

Giving everyone some more XP for the side quests and RPing. Not enough to level.

Ok! City! Now that you are here, what would you like to do? You have some loot to sell; gems, jewelry, as well as some magic items you could offload if you like.

Endholme is alarge City with these stats.

Base Value 13,600 gp; Purchase Limit 100,000 gp; Spellcasting 8th
Minor Items 4d4; Medium Items 3d4; Major Items 2d4

So, you have a 75% chance of finding any magic item with a value of 13,600gp or less, and the shops in the city can buy items of up to 100,000gp. Items that are valued as more than that, you could still probably find a buyer (or set up an auction), but that would need some work.

I'll get the always available minor, medium and major items rolled up, but if there is anything else you are looking to buy, give me a list, and a d% roll for each item.

If you want to sell gems and jewelry, you can sell them for the value listed on the loot tracker. Magic items sell at half.

First visit the temple to line up a restoration. This is a 9th level caster spell so is it even available?

We definitely sell the jewels off. I think the following should be sold off:

studded leather armor, mwk 175
shortsword 10
light crossbow 35 (Tony, do you want to keep these?)
bolts (10) 4 (Tony, do you want to keep these?)
jasper 30
rose quartz 25
three pearls 170
dagger, mwk 302
silver dagger, mwk 322
potion of cure light wound 50
oil of sanctify corpse 50
scroll of hold portal 25
scroll of detect undead 25
bracers of Armor +1 1000

Keep these
magical dagger, +3 18302
bag of holding (Type 1) 2500

Do we know anything about this?
book 100

Should we try to sell this?
Efreeti Bottle
potion of sanctuary 50 (didn't we give this to the child?)

Agreed with the list Belle and thanks for compiling it, though I say keep the Efreeti Bottle and perhaps investigate it some more now that we are in a large city?

Yep, the pot of Sanct was given to Riven ;)

With only two points of Con damage I wonder if we could get more out of the money spending it on something else. Unless I've forgotten and someone else has been drained too.

Oh duh Belle is hecka drained. Still, probably should shell out for only one.

It's only 280 gold and as you like saying hitpoints are your main resource. I say we should fix you up too, if we have the money.

First visit the temple to line up a restoration. This is a 9th level caster spell so is it even available?

7th level. 280gp. Available.

One of you was restored with Seir's scroll. I thought it was Reynaud, but... Would someone volunteer to go back through the posts since the caravan and see?

I think the following should be sold off:

studded leather armor, mwk 175 87.2 (sells at half price)

Sounds like everyone is in agreement to sell these, apart from maybe the crossbow and the bolts.

Sell everything: 1222 gp 2sp
Sell everything but crossbow/bolts: 1205 gp 2sp

Do we know anything about this?
book 100

It is the spellbook of the wizard who was Brodin's former companion. It contains the following spells, and may be sold for 540gp.

This is what it sounds like I am hearing.

1) Suggest keep, Bag of Holding, Magic Dagger, Efreeti Bottle.
2) Suggest selling items above for either 1222gp 2sp, or 1205gp, 2sp.
3) Suggest buy 1-2 Restorations at 280gp each.
4) Discuss fate of 2 spellbooks; Magnus' and Brodin's Companion.

Action Items
1) Confirm if you want to keep/sell crossbow/bolts
2) Confirm how many restorations you would like.
3) Confirm fate of spellbooks.

Nice summary HoF - I'm gonna say that regarding the spellbook, maybe Belle wants to copy the spells from them beforehand (if she hasn't already), and then they can be sold.

In my opinion both Belle and Reynaud should be restored. They should be at their best whenever possible.

I think Seir tried to use the scroll here, but it failed...? I don't think he tried again.

Wow... No one has any use for the Bracers of Armor? :D

I'd like to copy the following spells from Magnus' spellbook.

Belle, how long will that take?

Do you want to use Seir's scroll to restore one of them? Or just buy both of them and save the scroll for when you get drained again?

Magnus' spellbook can be sold for 245.

Half price does not help. She makes no profit on half price as that is how much it costs her to craft them. Cash it is then. I guess crafting is for party use, not making money, unless I want to make a day job roll.

Why would there be a difference in selling a scroll that you found for 1/2 price or selling a scroll you wrote for half price?

If you want to make money, I'll crack open the Ultimate Campaign and we can talk downtime :)
