Yes, regroup, then chase down Varen.

Are we sure we don't want to keep a magic melee weapon in the party?

I asked this question recently in the OOC thread, and the only responses were for selling -- if you disagree, please chime in over there.

"Mirra takes the hand crossbow back. "We are still selling the dagger right?"

"Yes."

Also done shopping.

So what's the dagger (and crossbow, assuming we're getting them identified together)?

Have you coughed for the cash as a party?

I think we had consensus for that, yes, or at least no objection.

10 masterwork bolts cost something stupid like 301gp. Might be better to get a masterwork crossbow instead. I think the silvered bolts will cost 2gp each, or 20gp.

Hmm...in that case, the masterwork can wait. I will take the silvered ones though, once the cash has been worked out. Colavre's first concern is his familiar at the moment, which costs around 100 gold.

Actually, the cost of MW ammunition is per 50, or 6gp per unit. So 10 MW bolts would be 61gp.

Cool. Assuming no objections, we'll update the cash split after Mirra identifies the dagger (selling it unless it's something interesting).

CLW wand charges (1d50=49, 1d50=39, 1d50=34)
Lesser Vigor wand charges (1d50=24)

Hamathin recommends spending 510gp of party treasure on the smallest CLW wand, and he wants to spend 50gp of personal treasure on a CLW potion (which is clearly labeled and he makes sure everyone knows where he carries it).

He also buys one CL1 scroll each of Magic Weapon and Remove Fear, for another 50gp out of personal funds.

"We also need to find someone who can identify these weapons, and then to try to sell the dagger. Mirra, do you know someone?"

Saving my cash for now

"Shagraat, fancy a walk? I wouldn't mind having your skills along with this amount of cash...."

"Yes, I'd just as soon not travel the streets with the cash alone. Let's go together."

Hamathin's not particularly comfortable dealing with those of other religions, and his own isn't much represented here, so he'll tag along trying to find a used wand.

Let's go to ooc

"Do we have anyone capable of using a curative wand though, if we purchase one?"

"Yes."

Hamathin has been seen casting CLW.

Hamathin's eyes widen at the treasure, and he listens to the others' plans for division.

"Speaking of wands -- an investment in a curative wand might be worth pooling money for, as we don't know when we'll have such a sum in one place again."

To be clear, that's either CLW or Lesser Vigor. I'd also be happy if we could find a slightly used one to knock down the price a bit.

"My vote would be chest, Varen, Harmel, in that order."

"Agreed. Varen will likely lead us to Harmel. Though if we don't find Varen in short order, we should try to find Harmel directly -- Varen likely took the notes for him."

Hamathin accepts the healing with grace, but is clearly pleased to be leaving.

Hamathin does not seem particularly uneasy, but does seem somehow irked, scowling at the trappings of the human religions.

Hamathin quickly moves to follow the others out (though behind Gaz).

"We ready to get out of here?"

"Definitely."

Another sorcerer level, 2 extra hitpoints (Hit Points (1d4=2)), 2 skill points dropping 1 in spellcraft and 2 in knowledge local.....Profile updated....

But the most important part -- what's your new cantrip?!

Alright, all updated, boss. Fear me and my mighty 12hp (currently 11) and nonzero BAB!

And with that magnanimous gesture, Aubrey the D/M hits 2000 posts!

Level 2 hp (1d8=1) Ouch -- thank goodness for house rules!

"Of course Gaz, you have been a great help, though we treated you badly."

Hamathin gives Colvare a look at that comment, but says nothing.

"If we leave now, this murder'll be thrust on us, too. Then we'd need to leave this town... fast."

K:Local (untrained) (1d20 2=14)

"With the Sharn Watch? It's going to be pinned on us whether we stay or leave -- why make it easy for them?"

"Do you see anything?" Hamathin asks Shagraat.

"We have to take the ledgers and get out of here. I'm out of healing magic, and Shagraat's barely standing."

Hamathin sheathes his sword and returns to examine the severity of Shagraat's wounds.

Heal (1d20 3=14)

I'm down to orisons. Better spend that AP, then I can get you walking with a Cure Minor, leaving me one more to stabilize someone.

When my turn comes

Fair enough!

Aubrey, could you update on where everyone who is in the room is located? It's not at all clear to me for my map. Thanks.

If you said where Shagraat is, I can't find it. If I can't do this without drawing an AoO, I'd like a chance to revise.

Hamathin sidesteps the melee and kneels beside the hobgoblin, whispering a prayer and touching him.

Aubrey, Shagraat

Init (1d20 1=12)

Gaz group:

Everyone, please confirm who is going with who, and then we will go to spoilers as the party has split.

Following the minotaur

Hamathin, coming to, quickly heals himself and rises, trying to orient himself. Considering his options, he follows Mirra and Benedetto through the door, quite confused.

CLW on self (1d8 1=7)

Thanks, Aubrey. Ok, should have a good connection now.

Might be hard to find the next couple days -- next action is to spend an AP to stabilize

Take your time.

I'll just lie here.

And bleed.

<owie>

"Deathless preserve us!" Hamathin cries, touching his holy symbol. He then draws his longsword, steps forward, and prepares for the worst.

Bless, catching everyone. +1 to attacks. 5' step to D7.

Initiative 20, Spot 24 -- now I roll well. Sheesh.

Unfortunately, I was probably toward the front. Call it D8.

"Harmal? Never heard of him."

Sense Motive, DC 20:

** spoiler omitted **

Sense Motive (1d20 3=14) Nope.

Hamathin steps in. "What my human companion is saying is that we are looking for another human. We have no business with you halflings, so you need not worry about us."

Diplomacy (1d20 6=9) Oops. Fun thing about pbp is that I can write either a good or bad diplomacy effort after seeing my roll!

This one has a stone floor covered in sand, and a gallery around the edge, now empty. A large door, opposite the one the party entered, is closed.

"Wait here," mutters the halfling, and heads back out the door the group entered.

Hamathin looks around the room, then, if it is possible with his pallor, blanches.

"People, be ready," he murmurs. "This is looking like an arena -- and one that's been used."

Search 19, Knowledge (Local) 13 (untrained)

Sense Motive: 1d20+3 = 10; Spot: 1d20+5 = 7

The "music" and the crowd combine into an assault on Hamathin's senses; it is all he can do to follow the lead of the others.

Hamathin falls in line with the others.

Following Urthona's lead, Hamathin finishes his drink and rises as well, looking to Rayne.

Rayne's group:

Hey, all.

Heading to Chicago in the morning through Sunday. I should still be able to post most evenings, but I can't promise much.

Rayne's team

Unfortunately, it's the highest modifier that leads. But I appreciate the assist! :D

Actually, I was trying to convey that I hoped the +2 modifier was the lead in the little group, so we could take advantage of my 20!

But you rolled decently . . .

Gather Info: 1d20+2 &#8594; [20,2] = (22) -- Rather hope I'm leading!

Hamathin scowls at Rayne, then nods.
