No skool like the old skool. Think of "Natural 20" here as a magical, evil version of Lara Croft.

Alright I can finally get to the vignettes! Almost wiped out half the party at session tonight.

Better luck next time! Perhaps more umber hulks?

Kargas Stormscar |

Well I missed killing the swashbuckler by 4pts with a Slay Living (gypsosphinxes are fun!) and the Dragon Disciple's fire breath and the sphinx's Pounce almost killed the gunslinger. Huge earth elementals nearly got the witch! But there's always next session.

I have modified the loot list so you can see all the prices of the items found (both full price and half price as sold). Total for each character (split 6 ways) is 3062.47 gp, suspiciously close to the difference between level 3 gold and level 4 gold...
Anyway, for example, look at Guiness:
3062.47 gp
- 75 gp for 3 CLW potions picked up along the way
- 150 gp for 1 CMW potion also picked up along the way
- 85 gp for a masterwork heavy shield looted
- 500 gp for 5 rewards for saving his life to the other PC's
-2000 gp to get his hammer "awakened" to +1 magicgives 252.47 gp left over.
Of course, if everyone wants cash, we could miss out on some items, but we could give it a whirl and see if this method works well for us...
Subtract 20 gp for Ripnugget's Crown on display at the Rusty Dragon, and Guiness is good!

Kargas Stormscar |

Off to a creepy start!

Floredana Mandulescu |

So before we get too far into the next part, how much gold are we each allotted? Flo'd like to buy some stuff!
EDIT: Lol creepy af!

Flo, no worries if you don't get a chance today. I'd rather have people's downtime stuff staggered anyway because it'll take me a whole bunch of time to write responses.
Floredana, see the previous posts. You should be able to take the cash or grab any unclaimed item by using putting the item sell price (1/2 retail) back into the party pot...
For those who have claimed items in previous posts, please make sure you edit the loot list to indicate this so we don’t double claim something...

Rig Veda |

it looks like there's a second cloak of resistance on line 35. Is that one claimed? There also appear to be several CMW potions that should be claimed, a couple of CLW, and a remove sickness.
@GM: sorry, I'm unclear, did you say we could trade in town the +1 bastard sword for a +1 longsword?

![]() |

@Rig, reading through the posts it seems that the medium sized cloak of resistance is not yet claimed. Colvyn has mentioned taking the smaller one, but nothing definitive yet. there is also the neck slot item that gives a +1 to saves and lets you cast false life 1x/day no one has claimed.

GM Cellion |

@Rig: You'd have to sell the +1 bastard sword and buy a +1 longsword at full price.
RotRL is pretty generous with its loot, generally to the extent that it tosses plenty of stuff at you that it assumes you'll only get 50% value from. If you *can* make use of it, then that's just gravy. Some other APs are much more stingy, in which case I'd consider allowing PCs to make "even" trades to switch to a different type of weapon.

Floredana Mandulescu |

D’oh, thank you Guinness, when I get back from work today I’ll make purchases.
Flo can grab some potions, but she already has a cloak.

Rig Veda |

aha! Gotcha. Yeah, let's sell that then, and I can just buy a +1 sword. And sure, if no one else wants it, I'll go for the necklace.

Kellek Zaderan |

More like no one else can afford it. ;)

Floredana Mandulescu |

Flo's going to grab a lesser metamagic rod of reach, if that is cool with you GM! Figure with her stellar move rate and being able to cure/buff from close range will do wonders for those tense situations.
Open to thoughts and opinions though!

Stellar choice! Guiness will contribute to a wand of CLW if you want...say 200 gp...if you or Colvyn want to buy one.

Floredana Mandulescu |

GAH! A wand of CLW is quite important still. Fortunately, I have 592gp from last time sitting around :) Guinness, I accept your offer and we have a new wand! :D

Colvyn "Slick" Dashtail |

Back from vacation, I'll catch up on the reading and post tomorrow. I was hoping to do some posting from our rental, but wht I though was internet access in the description of the rental and reality seemed to be highly different.
Thank you for your patience

Heads up GM, I may have another game for Natula in a couple of weeks and it would be useful for my other possible GM (and me) to know what level she will be to plan out our subtier.

Floredana Mandulescu |

Great Green God, do you have character inspiration for Kellek?

Kellek Zaderan |
1 person marked this as a favorite. |

He was one of the first magic-users I made using the red (and later blue, teal and black) box D&D rules set. His name is take from the early evil iconic wizard stated out in the back of the The Shady Dragon Inn supplement (a great source of fantasy sounding names and random NPCs to this day) who got his own action figure and later got a guest spot in an episode of the Dungeon's & Dragons cartoon.
The main inspiration for his character though comes from Raistlin Majere as presented in Tracy Hickman and Margaret Wies's Dragonlance novels. Instead of having a big, lummox of a twin brother like Caramon, Kellek's brother (Sterk Zaderan) is older, stoic, and based more upon lance hero Sturm Brightblade (and is obviously their dad's favorite son).
Fair warning: should Kellek's attitude toward life not improve by campaign's end expect him to try and wrest the Runelords' power and magic for himself. (It's sort of his goal even now.) At that point, I probably hand him to the GM to serve as the primary antagonist for next campaign. ;)

Sure thing. I was intending to get these Chronicles out, but I've been traveling for the last couple of weeks, so I haven't had access to my normal PC to do all the formatting. Expect them some time this next week.

Kellek Zaderan |

Cool beans.

GM Cellion |
1 person marked this as a favorite. |

Just as a heads up, my travel time has been extended yet again, so you'll have to sit tight for your chronicles until after labor day (Sep 3rd). I've now been traveling for work for the last 4 weeks. Well and truly ready to go home :/

![]() |

No real rush. If I could get it or at least the info from it by next Saturday that would be fine. That'll give me a little time to update Nat to 5th level. Hot damn! Fire and Lightning baby! Fire and lightning! Won't Kellek be jealous. {smirk}
EDIT Actually, if you just wanna tell me how much gold she obtained, and if she got 3 xp, and 4 prestige points, that would be enough to level her up with.

Nice. Rory is actually an orphan who grew up at the Tiger Eye Monastery and flunked out as a cleric and a monk, but became a sorcerer with an otherworldy patron and acts like a monk with crazy Qi powers. All his sorcerer spells have "monk power sounding" names and he takes "bluff" and "perform/kata".

Rig Veda |

I can't actually find in my notes... was I able to get a +1 longsword? For the ghoul attack, I just assumed I have a regular one at the moment, but if I can add +1 to attack and damage, I gladly will

GM Cellion |

You definitely were able to buy one if you wanted one! I believe you had the gold for it.

Rig Veda |

cool, thanks

Floredana Mandulescu |

Considering Flo’s actions, I doubt she is in a position for the spoilered sense motive, but let me know if I am mistaken GM!
Guinness, Flo agrees with your idea of checking other patients. She isn’t ignoring you, there just was a time constraint on one series of actions and not the other!

![]() |

Totally understand. Guiness is waiting to see if others have something to say in response to Habe, or you to get back too. He is definitely not going to lie for this guy to protect his business, that is for sure.

Floredana Mandulescu |

Flo doesn't have spellcraft trained, but I am trained as a player to always ask just in case :)

Floredana Mandulescu |

GM, would we have time to sell/buy stuff? Flo would be interested in some scrolls if we have time for it!

GM Cellion |

Yep, you absolutely have time to buy/sell.

![]() |

Guiness has already spent most of his money, so he has nothing additional to get except perhaps to refresh his rations and supply of Dwarven Stout.
Edit: He may check out the armory to see what kind of high end armor they have, although he doubts he will be able to afford his preferred Dwarven Full Plate for quite some time...

Rig Veda |

hey quick update, really overloaded at work, posting rate is way down, might last all semester long. Apologies, trying my best to stay caught up. Little daunting to see 20 gameplay posts :)

GM Cellion |

Thanks for the heads up Rig, and good luck with work!
----
I do have to say though:
Rig, if you're too busy to play regularly (1/day posting), it'd be better for you to focus on your work for now and set the game aside. That way you're not stretched thin IRL, and I won't need to be botting frequently over the next 6 months, or stalling the game waiting on your input for some decision or roleplay. We can have Rig go off-screen for this semester, then when you're ready, we can bring you back into the game.
And Colvyn, on average over the last few months, we're hearing from you once every three or four days. Do you think you'd be able to play/post more frequently? Like Rig, I don't want to be botting you all the time, as I had to during the fight against Caizarlu. And we're definitely missing you on all these roleplaying/info gathering scenes.

Colvyn "Slick" Dashtail |

Sorry about that, we are going through our annual rush time at work and I have been getting home completely exhausted. I will do my best to bring back my posting to par.

Kellek Zaderan |

Got jury duty tomorrow.

Kargas Stormscar |

Is it permissible for Kargas to trade the +1 bastard sword for an enchanted falchion? With additional coins/goods if necessary to finish the cost.

GM Cellion |

Nope, no trades like that possible. Rig asked about that back in August, if you scroll up a couple dozen posts.
You can certainly sell the bastard sword for half-price and buy a +1 falchion if you have the remaining gold.

Rig Veda |

@GM: that might not be a bad idea. I hate to not be able to really be interacting and giving the characters their due. As it is, I'm gonna have to be mostly out of pocket for the next 4-5 days due to travel.
