hehe the draconic spoiler said "grr arrgh im a dragon wait.. you cut me in half nevermind"

Your Benevolent Dictator |

Crap! I knew I forgot something. :-( The spoiler said, "That hurt! Why did you do that!" It had INT 5. Group1 is trying to diplomasize it, lol.
The wife is pretty sick and was throwing up all night, so I won't be posting for a little while. Since it looks like you're heading back to town, don't forget to figure out how you're going to explain the "borrowed" horse. ;-)

Lyosha Neverhome |

Quit putting bunny ears around borrow!

Zsestrian Raven |

Nooooo, poor Lizard :(
We could have ended that peacefully D:

Lyosha Neverhome |

Hey it bit me first! Self defense!

Your Benevolent Dictator |

So, is everyone heading back to town? Are you bringing the tatzylwyrm? I'll update once I know your plan.
On a personal note, my wife's very sick and is reacting badly to the antibiotics. Gaming's taking a backseat until she's better. I'll get online when I can, but posting will be spotty until things settle down IRL. :-(

Lyosha Neverhome |

Poor Allie, tell her Neverhome is sending positive feelings towards her.
As to the game is the tatzylwyrm light enough to be brought back?

Zsestrian Raven |

Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that. Best wishes to her. :(
And yes, I think that we're getting back and taking the Irrisen Tatzlwyrm head with us as a proof that something fishy is going on.

Lyosha Neverhome |

Okay fine then Ms. Mayor, next time I'll ride back into town on the wyrm and be caring a horse head.

'Silence' |

sell the loot, see about a wand? we might have enough, though my math is always weak. if they have one of course

'Silence' |

If anyone ever has better plans dont hesistate to speak them up, Kitteh Samurai are very laid back and easy going yes yes. I just figured a wand of make us feel better would be the most useful for everyone, especially since it gives our casters whom werent planning on being healers i would imagine a chance to play their charector how they wanted to. and I know Neverhome that you wanted that wyrm head for a trophy, we will just have to get you another one *nods* preferably a ancient red dragon head *nods nods*

Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |

That sounds like a great plan. In fact I was hoping if the Benevolent Dictator would let me retrain a bit so I can use wands but still be a trapfinder. I was thinking retraining my archetype back to standard ranger(for spells) and switch a trait to that new one that lets me DD magic traps.

Lyosha Neverhome |

Ish okay, there's still plenty of stuff to kill and cloakify :3

'Silence' |

Thats what i want to see Neverhome 'that one weird guy with the strange hides and cloaks draped about him like some strange troph.... " Now there is an idea, take a craft skill like leatherworking and make a cloak taking a little from each kill till its done.. how awkardly awesome would that be?

Zsestrian Raven |

I aggre with Calvin laid back kitten Samurai, let's sell what we can and I'll wield the wand (Until I get Healing Hex at level 4).
We have to defend ourselves from all these one-shotting bites :P.
In regard to what to keep, did we bring with us the extra weapons from the stash, or only what we wanted(Longsword, armor, crossbow and funky-curve-sword)? If it's necessary, I'll also sell the Desna pendant :(
Have to go now, sorry. I'll do a appraise check on the head later.

'Silence' |

Oh no of course i meant what was left from whatever people didnt want. I really think for instance you Zsess should keep a hold of say that crossbow, is Erika wants the 'curved wants to be a katanna but isnt really"longsword go for it. If we cant get a fully charged wand perhaps one that is halfish or so will work, maybe a potion or two, Im mostly worried about level 1. Level 1 can be rough (though honestly one of my favorite things is early game roleplaying. I like being worried about my safety. Lets see what we can get minus what people want and worry about having to sell things like pendants later if we must. yes yes *lawls*

Lyosha Neverhome |

Never thought about a patchwork cloak like that hmm sounds neat :3
My Inquisitor of Smiad I played in a RL game by the time it ended had: a troll skin jacket (never had to worry about tears!), Akata tendrils as some collar fluff, kobold skin gloves and boots (different colors), a hyena skull belonging to a former Lamashtu worshiper, a Blue Dragonscale scarf, a White Dragonscale jacket, the lower jawbone of a frost giant as a necklace, and a Rakshasa skin kilt :3

'Silence' |

it literally came up to me as i was typing that out and i too went.. hmm thats actually not a bad idea, just about anything can be turned into leather.. i would avoid humanoids i suppose, though i woudlnt imagine too many people would be up in arms by say a piece of gnoll in there or whatever.
I just wanted to tell all of you, thank you for not finding Samurai kitteh all that strange yes yes, I almost didnt make him, but now i am certainly glad i did he is by far one of my top three charectors ever roleplaying, and heck he just started. All he needs now is to find and fall in love with a viking shield maiden and have the worlds most awesome half breed kids or something equally epic *nods*

Lyosha Neverhome |

And we shall help!

'Silence' |

It like just re-registered in my brain that you said group one was trying to diplomasize it.... I retort we did diplomasize with it, just you know diplomacy by blade is all, He/she said "that hurt" and we told it, "hey no worries look, you will never be in pain again now." or something like that.

Zsestrian Raven |

...fall in love with a viking shield maiden and have the worlds most awesome half breed kids or something equally epic *nods*
You'll break Erika's heart. :(
By the way, I'm doing some calculation about how much we could ask for the weaponry, head and chest. I'll roleplay that in character in the gameplay thread after I posted here what I think their approximate value is.
Are we sure we don't want to keep the masterwork chainshirt and dagger?
Edit: Here is what I've come up with:
Leather armor x5= 50G
Studded Leather armorx3= 75G
Light Wooden Shieldx2=6G
Longswordx6=90G
Light Crossbowx2=70G
Tatzlwyrm head= ???
Maybe for sell
Masterwork Chainshirt= 250G
Masterwork Dagger= 302G
Desna holy symbol= 25G
Then, I went to check the chest price just to know if I could say, before DM Your Benevolent Dictator told us how much it was worth, "It's not worth much" or "This could fetch a couple of coins..."and I found...
Cost To determine the price of a darkwood item, use the original weight but add 10 gp per pound to the price of a masterwork version of that item.
So, the chest was made from Darkwood, it was 2 feet long, 3 feet large and 2-3 feet deep. That should be 12 cubic feet, no?
I checked the weight for a Huge Chest: 250 lbs!
Those should be 2500G... I mean, the vendor won't buy at full price, and the chest has been in the snow for some time, but those are still a lot of money for first level, no? Have I missed something important?

'Silence' |

maybe he meant its a 'dark' wood chest as in color. if something strikes your fancy as a need we can keep it, I wont lie, If its not samurai flavoured Silence wont want it, I mean sure eventually i'll have to bite the bullet on armour at least. I m sure Neverhome would prefer to change the chain shirt out for the breastplate, so he has pretty good ac and his bonus to movement still but i see a wand of cure light out of all that which is prolly the goal.
And as to miss Erika, she could still become a viking shield maiden, heck or even a future samurai herself or something i make no promises as to Silence's future. I mean is Silence even a boy? *Lawls*

'Silence' |

Oh and as an addenendum, if we have leftover gold from the possible wand purchase we should look into in no particular order, tents, cold weather outfits, extra blankets, maybe another packmule etc... I mean i dont know how much outdoors cold weather will be involved.. but it is the reign of winter campaign... I dont think it would be a bad thing to be overly prepared.

Lyosha Neverhome |

Yeah I don't mind swapping the breastplate for the chain shirt, it's 350g so we could get 175g for it.

Erika Darou |

Erika can become whatever she wants :P. And as for the stuff, I think depending on the money we get we need to invest in healing items...maybe...

'Silence' |

This one concurs *nods nods* Erika is Erika and is friend. *nods* If you want that curved wants to be a katanna sword go for it. Heck Silence will even 'show' you how to use it and all that good stuff. at least show you how to use it in a rp way that by no means denotes any actual skill with it, but you prolly knew that laready anywho!

Your Benevolent Dictator |

@Hobbes: I tend to give PCs a free rebuild early on in the adventure once they've had some time assessing their character. If you want to do that now, that's completely fine. Swap out archetypes/traits/whatever; just let me know what changes. :-)
@Zsestrian: your prices are good, but here's what the town will pay.
Leather armor x5= 25gp
Studded Leather armorx3= 37gp, 5sp
Light Wooden Shieldx2=3gp
Longswordx6=45gp
Light Crossbowx2=35gp
Total: 145gp, 5sp
Maybe for sell
Masterwork Chainshirt= 125gp
Masterwork Dagger= 151gp
The Desnan Holy Symbol is a bit special. Yes, you can get 25gp for it, but as it is the only tangible remnant of a holy man, there may be repercussions down the road if you treat it as simply a means of easy cash. *evil GM grin*
Tatzylwyrm Head - because it's only found in Irrisen, you might be able to get a couple hundred gp for it - if it's taxidermized properly and you can find an interested collector.
Chest - Damn! I hadn't anticipated y'all trying to sell it, so I just made up some random info. Zsestrian's calculations are spot-on. However, due to the significant amount of environmental damage, you'll probably only be able to get around 750gp for it.
One last thing: Heldren's a small town with a purchase limit of 2500gp, so you'll want to be careful not to bankrupt the treasury as that'll affect future interactions. ;-)

Lyosha Neverhome |

Also forgot to ask earlier but is the Sentinel's Cold Iron Longsword masterwork or normal?

Lyosha Neverhome |

Add 10g for my starting hide shirt.

Lyosha Neverhome |

Sweet :3

'Silence' |

Id say lets just sell the mundane and the chest, lets keep a hold of that cold iron longsword, may come in useful. the chest in itself should pay for the wand so we actually came out ahead.. yay team us. Of course... im not there to say all that now that i think about it, oh wells no worries sell sell sell the loot!

Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |

Thanks a bunch YDB! I'll post the changes in a few hours after I have my late dinner. And I'd be happy to hold onto the wand so the witch can do witchy stuff.

Lyosha Neverhome |

What would skinning and transforming stuff into things like cloaks and gloves be under? Profession or Craft?

Lyosha Neverhome |

Yeah I've been in games where it was Craft (Leatherworking) but also Profession (Tanner) so was just curious which one YBD went by.

Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |

Alright pretty much done. Lowered cha a bit to int for more skills. Traded Fast Talker for Trap Finder. Not trained in bluff anymore(but I'll get it back someday), but trained in handle animal and stealth now. And I can use wands/will get spellcasting.

Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |

Bluff is +1 from charisma and +2 from the shiftless racial trait. The situational modifier is for when I don't have my armor/shield so it doesn't include my ACP.

Your Benevolent Dictator |

Yes, you've definitely surpassed my expectations. Here I was thinking you'd be the tame group that would help me relax after dealing with insane Gnome sisters. Instead, you're stealing horses, selling background scenery chests, and planning to taxidermy a tatzylwyrm - and we're only two encounters into the AP! So. Much. Awesome. :-)

Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |

That's cute that you thought I'd be tame. :)
Just sad I can't antagonize old horn-head.

Your Benevolent Dictator |

Yeah, for some reason I thought that a CE Gnome pyromaniac and her Primal Magic sister would be crazier. Of course, besides you, there's a Samurai Cat, Halfling Batman, the unluckiest Witch in the world, a depressed Barbarian, and "Legs". :-)
It's almost 2am here and I have work in the morning, so I'm off to bed. Have fun storming the castle!
...
...
...
I mean have fun buying stuff!

Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |

Nope, how silly of you. Good night.

Lyosha Neverhome |

BORROW! HORISE WAS BORROWED! AND IT WAS ONLY SINGLE HORSIE!
:3 Glad you're having fun too, I'm having a blast :3
