Strahd's "RttToEE" - [OOC]

Rhun · May 20, 2009

Hey guys,

We really need to get this treasure divied up and/or sold so we can determine how much gold we have. Ragnok would like to upgrade his sword, but that will cost something like 6000gp...we need to figure out how much each of our shares are.

I say we take the time and money to identify the unkowns:

An iron torch and three black cones - Unknown.
necklace - Unknown.
ring - Unknown.
cloak - Unknown.

the potions we should probably work on identifying ourselves.

4 potions - Unknown.

And then we either divy up or sell the following:

small black sphere - Bead of force. - keep for future use ?
magical studded leather armor - +1 armor bonus. - sell
brooch - another Brooch of shielding like Thandis have. - sell or keep?
rapier - +1 - sell, unless Ithiken really wants it?
buckler - +1 - sell
wand -- Wand of Invisibility (10 charges) - to Ithiken or sell?

As far as non-magical items/valuable goods, we should sell everything we have.

What does everyone think? Until we get this figured out, we really can't get the game back on track.

Ithiken already has Invisibility as a spell and I've only used it like twice... so the wand is superfluous. Let's sell it. And he's only been in HtH perhaps once, so the magic rapier is just a waste in his hand, so let's sell that too. He will go ahead and try to identify the potions however. I also think keeping the Bead of Force is a good idea to crowd control certain creatures during fights (like we did with the giant ape).

Alright, here is my contribution to the loot process...

ITEMS TO KEEP SHOULD THEY PROVE USEFUL (These could possible have a use later in the adventure?)

- Ochre robes
- A black scepter with violet gems
- black metal tube.
- set of silver chimes
- bronze brazier and three chunks of incense
- skin-covered black drum.

These probably have no actual use, but could come in handy so we should just keep them:

- 6 smokesticks
- Flask of holy water.
- 6 tindertwigs

I fine w/ that division.

s@squ@tch · May 20, 2009

If it is cheaper to buy pearls than pay someone to identify, then we should purchase some for Lenuran to cast Identify.

It probably is...Strahd's call I guess. But the cheapest way is best, since I really don't think we have the money for an upgrade to Korbryn's sword anyway.

s@squ@tch · May 21, 2009

We also should stock up on some pearls to take with us on the road, so we can perform some identifications in the field.

Rhun · May 21, 2009

Not a bad idea.

Strahd_Von_Zarovich · May 24, 2009

Lenuran can identify – it is cheaper. If you pay a wizard you pay for his pearl + his service. So Lenuran is cheaper.

Gold flagon with obsidian inlays (200gp and not 9200gp)
Small statue (50 gp)

The shop gave you 95% of the actual value so"
1724 gold and 3 silver for the mundane items you sell.
2784 gold and 4 silver for magical items you sell.

Now buying 4 pearls for 400 gold:
* Ring of mind shielding
* Necklace of prayer beads (2 blessing)
* Cloak of resistance +1
* Torch of revealing and 3 Incense of dream – when the torch is lit with the incense it creates a 10’ radius of violet light and chill air. They are used to find hidden objects within temples devoted to Tharizdun.

s@squ@tch · May 25, 2009

OK, so totalling things up:

4905 gp (subtracted 400 gp for pearls)
720 sp
845 cp

* Ring of mind shielding -- SELL!
* Necklace of prayer beads (2 blessing) - Miltidas?
* Cloak of resistance +1 -- anyone? or sell?
* Torch of revealing and 3 Incense of dream – when the torch is lit with the incense it creates a 10’ radius of violet light and chill air. They are used to find hidden objects within temples devoted to Tharizdun.

We should keep the last one for now, since ~~Lenuran is now a follower of big T~~ it could be a plot item which we will need in the future.
