Murder's Mark Questions

Liberty's Edge

I am considering purchasing Murder's Mark to run.
How many XP and Fame points should characters receive (max)?
The gold listed on the chronicle (~1300) would seem to suggest 3 XP.

Never mind. I found the answer (3 XP, 4 PA).

But something else is bothering me.

Spoiler:

The description of the footprints says they were made by Robella, under the influence of an enlarge extract. It says that the footprints are not deep enough to have been made by a sphinx, which weighs about 600 pounds. But the enlarge extract would multiply Robella's weight by 8. Assuming average weight for a Golarion female human, Robella's weight while enlarged would be 8*140 lb = 1120 lb, nearly twice the weight of the sphinx! Furthermore, she would be walking on two feet, rather than four feet, as the sphinx would be. It seems to me that Robella's footprints should be much deeper than the sphinx's footprints, unless her feet are considerably larger than the sphinx's feet.
If each of Robella's feet is four times the size of the sphinx's feet, then roughly twice the weight would be spread over twice the area, so the depth of the footprints should be roughly the same.
I'll say the footprints look too deep to have been made by the sphinx, if the characters notice.

Sigh...I used to be an engineer. Now I tutor high school physics, among other subjects. Too much reality is not good for fantasy.
