[QUOTE="Matthan, post: 6776671, member: 20005"] I wanted to take a stab at dividing loot. Okay, here was my attempt to divide loot earlier. You can see how I valued it this way in the earlier post. I’ve added in the new items. Isaac - the magical sword, chain shirt (for wearing now), Total value: 60 gp Al - the Lizardfolk shield, breastplate, golden tusk+teeth (he ripped 'em out so it seems fair to keep them), thieves' tools, and one healing potion (already used) Total Value: 255 gp Shen - healing potion, thieves guild magic armor Total Value: 136 gp 5 silver Mina – Daedarai – Poisoner’s Kit Total Value: 25 gp Remaining loot: Antidote potions (x2) – up for grabs at 25 gp (ea) or party loot Healing Potions (x2) – up for grabs at 25 gp (ea) Invisibility Potion – party loot Wand – hard to price. My guess with the earlier formula somewhere between 100-150 gp. This is the first item we’ve seen that actually increases numerical effectiveness though so it’s hard to gauge. Broken Half Plate - sell The spare shield – sell -a 50gp ruby - sell -a silver beaded necklace worth 20gp - sell -2 non-magical gold rings each worth 40gp – sell - a homemade arcane focus made from a human skull containing 2 50gp rubies in the eye sockets – sell Coins: 151 cp/5 = 30 cp (1 cp remaining) 432 sp/5 = 86 sp (2 sp remaining) 1022 gp/5 = 204 gp (2 gp remaining) Okay, so what I did is went back to the original list and added up the value of all the treasure that was divided as above (476gp 5 sp). I did not factor in items to be sold (because we don’t know how much we’ll get for it). Then, I added just the gold to that total. That gives us roughly 1,498 gp worth of loot (dropping the silver because I don’t think it’s worth arguing over pennies and dimes at this point). If we divide 1,498 by 5, we have 299 gp each (again dropping silver). If we take 299 and subtract the loot costs from each person, we have the following: Isaac: 299-60=239gp Al:299-255=44gp Shen:299-136=163gp Daedarai:299-25=274gp Mina:299-0=299gp Add up that and we have 1,019 gp that would be given out. That would leave 3 gp undivided along with the sp, cp, and unsold items. My thought is to take the remainder of the money and divide it as evenly as possible. Then, do the same for the items being sold. 3 gp/5 = 6sp 432 sp/5 = 86sp 4 cp 151cp/5 = 30cp (1 cp remain – vote we make a group wish and toss it in the ocean) So, assuming everyone is okay with that distribution of items (I don’t know if TGG ever mentioned if Alejandro wanted that armor), each person would get in coin: Isaac: 239 gp, 92sp, 34 cp Al: 44 gp, 92 sp, 34 cp Shen: 163 gp, 92 sp, 34 cp Daedarai: 274 gp, 92 sp, 34 cp Mina: 299 gp, 92 sp, 34 cp If anyone wants to purchase one of the unclaimed items, let’s have them pay the group and we’ll divide that money 4 ways to the other party members. Does that make sense at all? I feel like that’s a lot of math. If that's agreeable, let's go with that. Also TGG, if during the next scene you have Alejandro mention wanting to go back to the Undercity to check on someone, I would like for Daedarai to volunteer to accompany you (maybe the whole party if they wish). I don't know how or if you want to introduce that. I just want you to know scene wise that if you bring it up, I'll offer to come along. [/QUOTE]
