Am I rolling these? Or are you?

Uhhh... <glances at dice roller logs> why don't you take care of it!

Also *ding* everyone goes up to level 3. Make your choices and feat selection and PM them to me. Roll for HP etc.

I got a Survival +5. Will aid if anyone has higher.

We'll have another shopping break and once everyone is confirmed their equipment I'll make the updates and upload the new character sheets.

After any other rewards of course.

What other rewards? You were pre-paid for this mission...

Our prepayment was 1000 gp, which was in fact the bribe monies for the he Spider King. We were told we could divvy up anything not spent on the bribe. So we each get 250 gold plus what we made on knivsies, divided by 4. I am uncertain whether we were promised anything beyond that (Hey, Kraw is a mercenary, not a hero).

Nope no other payments. Your Bank of Abadar logs should be current

Finished leveling.

If we took d10 (in my case) /2 or 5 last level, I can take 6 this level, right? instead of roll hitpoints?

I'd prefer to roll but assuming you don't get max HP you'll get a bonus HP every odd level after 1st.

I'll leave it to you guys if you want to have a little side adventure selling the organs. Otherwise if you're eager to keep things rolling we can just narrate past it and dump gold in your pouches. Up to you. I want to give you opportunities to explore the city and the people living within but I can also understand given the pace of pbp chomping at the bit to get to the next part of the adventure.

Also regarding HP... I know I've changed my mind back and forth on this however it has been pointed out that the rules as I've written them allowed for average and while I would greatly prefer rolls for a bit more spice and the nostalgia factor of old school D&D I also don't like strong arming my player over something that ultimately doesn't matter that much so on the honor system if you feel like I pressured you unfairly into rolling when you would rather have taken average then I have shifted my position and you can take your average (round down).

Let it be known that while my rulings are absolute and completely justified they can become refined over time (or in this case refined, unrefined, and then refined again :P)

As usual, let me know via PM

In reply to Dungeon Master (msg # 650):

Im good with handwaving this bit. Kraw has Local knowledge and probably knows an apothecary or two

I have no problems with us just moving on. It could be interesting to explore a bit, but what takes a couple of minutes over the table could take weeks here. Kyra also has good Knowledge: Local skill to find a buyer to dump this on.

Happy to fluff the sale and move on.

Okay. We got 212 gold from knivsies, 1000 from bribe money, 1000 from poison sacs.

Total 2212 gold. Divide by 4 means we take home 543 gold each. Add that to your working total before making purchases.

553. But who's counting?

Also... It's been added in my loot thread bank entry by gm already. Check it hasn't for you, to avoid double counting.

Character sheets and my notes have all been updated. Equipment logs (namely the Bank) should also be updated to reflect everything you've sent me so far.

Hope you dont mind me playing a character with a personal moral compass.

@Kyra: To clarify it's been maybe close to six weeks, not six months. Probably not even. I can go back and review the threads but I want to say maybe a month since the king died?

Let me know when you're ready to move on.

Is there a chance of doing some (very quick) shopping before we go grab her? It occurred to me that if we end up dragging her through the streets some way to hide her would be very useful. How hard would it be to find, say, a potion of Disguise Other quickly? A Wizened Appearance potion or scroll might work in a pinch too.

Manacles are 2 gp? Might be needed, unless we still have a pair from the Meat house encounter (didnt need manacles for the dead guy)?
