OK ... check your gallery thread.

Ryssa was the one upgrading from Chain Shirt to Scale Male.

According to your numbers, MikeD, the two items have the same basic cost? So this would be a net cost of 25gp after selling the chain shirt that no one else wants.

Seems right to me Ex .. but I am not the GM <weg>

I will take your word.

MikeD - unless anyone objects, how about we presume the party pays for "party" expenses (such as upgrading armour, buying new weapons, adding spells and such) since those help everyone, first, and then divides up whatever money is left after all of that is done. Rather than dividing the money first and then trying to borrow funds from people.

I think it's simpler.

So, can you give us the net remainder per pc after all the armour upgrades are done?

Then once everyone has edited their pc to fix their AC (if it changed) and change their money we're good to go.

Please start a discussion on the trip in the game thread and we can leave.

That works for me Zeim.

OK ... I spent 40, Ex at 25 and 175 for Psnde = 240 (after trade ins). Were there any other expenses? I seem to recall some spell costs and maybe something else. Just to confirm ... we are starting at 900, right?

Yes. 300gp for Balthazar's spells, another 15gp for miscellaneous purchases, and 35gp for room and board.

Yes. Starting at 900gp. If people have previous money on their sheets from when we started the game they can just add that to whatever the new amount they get is.

OK so: 900 - 590 = 310 / 5 => 62 gp per character after all is said and done.

Now just to be clear ... I had some other GP awards and I want to be sure exactly what the 900 covers so I don't 'double dip'. Here is the list I have:

So was any of that included in the 900?

Damn, this is much more confusing than 'at the table' <chuckle>

All of it is included. I went thru the whole module, up to this point, and added it all together. If you've written all that on your sheet already (and anyone else who has) just change it to be 65gp total and we can move on.

Got it <g>

Anyone that needs help fixing their stats in the gallery ... lemme know <g>

OK, for the "N" Game, the summary, as I figure it is:

Money-wise: 935.5 gp of stuff. Plus 300gp from Sildar and Halia = 1235.5gp. Divided by 5 = 247.1 gp each

Magic item-wise:

Potions of Healing - 2
Unidentified Liquid - 2 vials
Scroll - Augury, Fireball, Charm Person
Long Sword +1 "Talon"
Staff of Defense
Iarno's Spellbook Should contain:

Cantips - Light, Mage Hand, Shocking Grasp
1st Level - Charm Person, Magic Missile
2nd Level - Hold Person, Misty Step


As for Magic items Kallista would like the Staff of Defense. We need to identify the two stoppered vials and assuming they are potions we'd have 4 potions to split up.

No one was interested in the magical Long Sword, amazingly enough, so unless somebody has a change of heart we can try to sell it (Neptune?) or gift it to somebody (Sildar?), or hold onto it as a bribe for later?.

As for the scrolls and spellbook. Obviously Kallista is interested, but the rules say anyone can use a scroll. A house rule I have used (and usually Neptune as well) is that you can cast spells out of a spellbook as if they were scrolls. The spell disappears from the spellbook if you do this. You can't rip the pages out and distribute them so the book itself would need to go to one person.

So is anyone interested in the spellbook or the scrolls besides Kallista? Jaliera (I think you are taking the magic using thief option)? Davroar? Kriv? Anyone else?

Kriv is also a student of the arcane.

Noted. Edited message above and added the spells in Iarno's spellbook. Consider them to be like a single scroll. (Nep - I used the one in my game as a model. If you prefer different spells please edit.)

I suggest somebody taste the vials so we know what's in them and then everyone put in their names next to their initial choice of an item, as I did here for Kallista.

So we have:

- Staff (Kallista)

I think the scrolls would be:

1 - Spellbook (as a single scroll with 7 spells on it)
2 - Augury
3 - Fireball
4 - Charm Person

Then at least 2 and maybe 4 potions

1 - Healing
2 - Healing
3 - ?
4 - ?

And then finally

Long Sword +1 "Talon"

Jaliera would be interested in spells and a potion.

Also Jaliera has already agreed with her mentor to join the Zhentarim.

If you want my suggestion, we have 4 people interested in magic, Kallista, Davroar, Jaliera, and Kriv. Kallista would like the Staff.

I think we can take the spellbook, since it has 7 spells in it, and make that another choice. Then we can pair one of the scrolls with a potion of healing and make that 2 more choices. That makes 4. We'd have the two other potions left to offer to Chandan and then one scroll for someone to take.

Kriv will stake a claim on the book, student that he is.

Jaliera will bid for fireball and or charm person and a potion of healing.

Davroar? Any preference?

Davroar will taste test the two unknown potions. If either are simple healing spell he will let the others have them since he has healing spells, otherwise he will put a claim on them.

Davroar can't use a sword, so he would probably suggest gifting it to Sildar.

Being a druid, gold does not hold too much sway on him and will gift 200gp of it to Sildar to help restoring order or to recompense any relatives of the dead/missing families from the Redbrands actions.

I did ask in a ooc comment about the waterproof satchel. May Davroar keep that?

Chandan would be interested in any drinkables. Any coinage he himself found, he'd return to the town.

No objection from Jaliera to Davroar taking the satchel.

None here either.

Dugan - Davroar isn't interested in any of the scrolls?

Neal - Chandan doesn't want any scrolls either?

Can Chandan use scrolls? He can read, but he's a monk.

Also, is the Staff of Defence a wizardly staff or a smash 'em in the face staff? (Or both, I guess.)

Chandan could do with an attack upgrade of some sort. He's OK at hitting, but his damage is on the low side.

Anyone can use scrolls in D&D 5e. I posted that earlier. So they are available to anyone.

The Staff is a Wizardly staff. It can be used to hit with, like any staff, but it's powers are to cast defensive spells (Mage Armour and Shield) which requires you to have those spells in your spell list.
