how many cp's did chye's Naginata gain after the battle? it was well employed during that battle, taking several heads, and skewering a few.  (named items gain independant xp to be spent on enchantments. (currently has 13.)

Re: Awards and development

Juniors:
Everyone gets 4 points, there is the following loot
Cheap weapons:
Dagger $3
Shortsword $64
Large knife $6
Thrusting broadsword $120
Spear $9
Knife $3
Axe $9

Hey boss... my numbers and your don't line up...

Item		Book$	Cheap	Sell$	Your Numbers
Dagger		20	8	3.2	3
Shortsword	400	160	64	64
Large knife	40	16	6.4	6
Thr Broadsword	600	240	96	120
Spear		40	16	6.4	9
Knife		30	12	4.8	3
Axe		50	20	8	9
				188.8	214

Is there an adjustment going on?  Market fluctuations?  Was that Thrusting Broadsword a Thrusting Bastard Sword (that would totally account for the difference there)?  Was the Spear a Long Spear and the Axe a Throwing Axe?  And then everything just rounded down?


And I think I need to develop a chart of the best weapons to loot by pound...  F-ing Spears are not worth it when Small Knives hold the same value at 1/8th the weight.


[EDIT]
Answered in Bone Gate thread; the higher numbers.

Re: Awards and development

She was certainly effective in combat, but I think the intention was for that award to go to a PC.  On that basis, I'll vote for Oly; the quiet knife was very instrumental in getting us inside their perimeter so we could use confusion against them.

Re: Awards and development

I wish I contributed more, but unfortunately, whoever built this character largely killed any real offensive ability.  Luckily, I can pay Norman to do the fighting for me And learn random skills on the fly.

As an NPC I thank you. I got retconned with the new Slayer book, so no freebies.

Point to Oly.

Mancini could drop four on Norman and have him suddenly step up to his potential as a 125point character if wanted... Hirelings are often not who they seem.

Re: Awards and development

In reply to Oly (msg # 139):

After some quick appraisal by Mancini, you learn the following about the demonologist's gear:
He was wearing a magical hooded robe of protection, worth $9600 and useable as a power item of some heft.
The fine, ornate dagger, set with sard and malachite, which Ardenas is sure is magical, is probably worth just over $10000 (all prices pre-sale)

The spell stone needs to be analyzed tp determine what spell is in it.


Thatbook you found previously is not detectable as magic, but definitely has some weird power to it.

Re: Awards and development

Good news is, most of 500 silver after sell-off.

Bad news is, items too valuable for any one of us to keep and use (unless one of us is a bunch richer than another).

Off to the Guild to get that stone analyzed?

Of course. Who can we get to sell them for the best price? Mancini?

I would live the cloak, but for a leprechaun, it would be a tent of protection!

Analysis of the stone would cost $60 and a god reaction roll. While at the guild you should meet Grimaldi and Sederic.

As there were rewards for the big cult battle, there are two each (and only one for Norman) for defeating the demonolgist and his instant As- Sharak

Mancini, I presume you do these investigations prior to going to the guild? Sale price of Cloak and dagger, and type of spell stone? Actually, can magic be used on the spell stone to determine the location of it's caster?

Re: Awards and development

Seems to me it would be sensible at this time to spend a point on Knot-Tying (get off default and finally remember which way the rabbit goes around the tree and which hole he runs back down).  I'll hold the second in reserve for the time being.

In reply to Aoife (msg # 147):

That might be beyond the scope of even Analyze Magic, although it could be used to assist use of a seeker spell. There are spells that obscure that...

He was able to make simple evaluation, but the magic items need clarification in order to properly price them.

Re: Awards and development

Question: Could Mancini try summoning Kalima as Wild Talent?  Or would that be too beyond the pale?
