I know that as a general rule selling loot nets the players half list price.

What I want to know is: In printed adventures (ala Dungeon) when loot has a listed price, is that sell price or the list price?

i.e. when the players sell a 'Foo (100gp)' do they get 100gp or 50gp?

Hi all,

I have a situation where several of my PCs seem to be intent on collecting the heads of their enemies. More specifically the skulls of their enemies so they may clean them and have an everburning flame put inside the skull top make lanterns...

None of the PCs are Evil and the main instigator is Lawful Neutral (The party tends to be Lawful Neutral / Chaotic Good).

We are playing the AOWAP and they got the idea from the rumour about Fixx's head being left in Smenks bed...

The party was ambushed by the towns main thugs, who beat them up and killed one of the PCs in the process (who did ignore a blatant DM hint that this was a beating and not a TPK and decided attacking the halforc barbarian after being given a surrender ultimatum was a good idea...) and stole some of their gear. This put the thugs on their hit list for revenge.

So far they have beheaded two of the thugs they have defeated (coup de grace both, one after unconcious from wounds, the other after unconscious from poison), currently they're claiming revenge and intimidation as the reasons behind the decapitations.

They also captured the remaining two thugs, got the info from them and released them to run away to the Free City...

I can live with the decapitations, (a little unnecessary I feel, but that's my own personal preference admittedly) and sure in the heat of combat and elation at having defeated the barbarian may have lead to the LN instigator ignoring the rest of combat to hack the head off ... but planning to have the skulls polished and turned into lanterns seems a little to borderline for me.

The question really is:

Are they acting in an Evil/Out of Alignment way and looking at Alignment change?

Am I letting personal bias get in the way of my DM judgment?

Any help with this would be appreciated

Cheers
