I keep hearing that. It certainly doesn't feel true though.

I'd noticed. I added in our characters' picks to the end of my treasure post. We can use it as our semi-official loot list for the moment.
So how's about we offer to trade the ivory succubi figurine, the ivory kraken and the garnet necklace for a wand of cure light wounds at the temple? We can let the priest fret about what to do with the delightfully demonic statue.
Maybe with a bit of work it can be made to look like a pair of beautiful angels embracing.
Read above and offer your two cents on issues of loot division and proposed actions for the group. I'm likewise anxious to get this stuff sorted out so that we can get the ball rolling again.
temple-east side of town to the varisians, advance plot when the streets are a little safer is my vote.
Treasure wise nothing there appeals to me so I'd like my split in cash
Thorson's got some RP needs for cash, Doc, originally I priced the item Thorson is trying to recover at something like 500gp, in reading the loot list and seeing associated values I think that was naively inflated, would 100gp sound more reasonable to you?
I think we need to hold onto the brooch and return it at an opportune time, the other items can be held onto with perhaps an accompanying hit against the gp split by people who want them, the rest liquidated. Sound fair?

Looking for a D&D game in Kona!
How about my idea of trading some of the items at the temple for a wand of cure light wounds for the group? We're all hurting without any means to heal aside from rest.
How about the magic items? Do either Edmond or Thorson, as the two martial characters, have any interest in the silversheen or oil of keen edges? Do either Lynn or Edmond, as the arcane casters, have any interest in the wand of magic missiles? Would people rather sell these items at half value to gain some money instead?
Edmond can't use the wand of magic missiles (not in his spell list and no UMD) and has acid arrow as his orison (and thus casts at will). We COULD use silversheen in specific situations, otherwise I already made my pick.
I agree we should buy CLW wand and later vigor or some such. Actualy, it might be good idea to agree we take 10-30% of all loot into "group treasury" for buying utility wands, travel expenses, raising dead etc.
As for advancing the game: we go to the temple, there somebody should know how to deal with Varisian dead.
Next level I'm getting magic weapon spell so silversheen will be somewhat redundant.
All we need is Oni's two cents on what items and treasures Lynn might want and, if everyone is okay with it, I can set about the task of selling loot, crunching some numbers and reporting back the results.
I agree with Oni about the Silversheen, even though neither she nor I could do much with it ourselves. It's good to have on hand in case we start seeing clues pointing to lycanthropic activity nearby. See a full moon? Here the wolf howl? Time to break out the Silversheen and slap it on!
On the other hand, I can see Valthosian's point about the Oil of Keen Edges. Who can tell when it'd best be used? It's the kind of thing that'd only seem like a good idea to use in retrospect after an unexpectedly tough fight.
I'm not a big stickler for who gets what treasure-wise, I simply like for money and items to be carefully organized so as to avoid reality warping situations in which characters spend funds they don't have or in which multiple PCs erroneously drink the same potion due to poor bookkeeping.
First off, we have Lynn hold onto the Queen's broach with the intention of eventually returning it to the newly crowned monarch. Dj'hân likewise continues holding onto Zalara's deck to use it for the party's benefit.
Second, assuming that its relatively quick and easy to do so, the group exchanges the Chelish gold trade bar for an equivalent amount of gold sails. It might be feasible to do that at or near the Pantheon of Many.
Next, assuming that there are accommodating priests at the Pantheon of Many, the group tithes the succubi figurine and the holy symbol of Shelyn in exchange for a wand of cure light wounds. I figure that Dj'hân, with ranks in use magic device, should hold on to it.
The rest of the treasures (along with the 100 gold sails) are then divided up between the four PCs as follows:
Dj'hân's Share
Miniature gold crown – 350 gp
Staff of desiccating wind – 97.5 gp (sale price)
20 gold sails
31 silver shields
53 copper pinch
Edmond's Share
Ivory scrimshaw kraken – 200 gp
Vial of Silversheen – 125 gp (sale price)
Garnet necklace – 100 gp
Edmond's signet ring – 2.5 gp (sale price)
3 flasks of acid – 15 gp (sale price)
25 gold sails
31 silver shields
52 copper pinch
Lynn's Share
Wand of magic missiles I (25 ch.) – 187.5 gp (sale price)
Silver lover's ring – 150 gp
Adamantine arrowhead – 30 gp (sale price)
Thunderstone – 15 gp (sale price)
5 platinum coins
35 gold sails
31 silver shields
53 copper pinch
Thorson's Share
Oil of keen edge – 375 gp (sale price)
Hand crossbow – 50 gp (sale price)
Teak and jade cigar case – 25 gp
18 gold sails
26 silver shields
52 copper pinch
This way everyone gets a nearly equal amount of wealth (give or take a copper) equal to approximately 471.12 gp. Each character is then free to keep the items in their share or sell them for an equivalent amount of cash if and when they desire to do so. Sound good?
Well, if Dj'han goes selling things he might sell ivory kraken as well. Edmond has no place in his life to call home so there is no point in small decorations. Same with the necklace, although he might be taken with Lynn and give her a gift
So, change Edmond's list of wanted items to exclude 'lovers ring' and add signet ring
