Crag nods to the others and picks up the staff. Feeling rather put off that he got nothing at all from Terra he examines the staff while walking out of the room.

[sblock=skill checks] Not sure if this would be perception or Nature, so I rolled both, getting a 19 (both have the same bonus, so just pick the skill that is most appropriate).[/sblock]
 

Jax keeps one eye on the staff as he retrieves his dropped weapons. He says to Crag while the party is leaving the room, "Yep, you keep it. A mud staff for a rock man. Very fair."
 


With his dagger and crossbow retrieved, Jax steps toward the northern wall of shelves. He mutters "For everyone else though..." and begins making a mess of things. The kobold grabs various objects, glances at each for a moment, and carelessly tosses any uninteresting ones over his shoulder.
 

As Jax begins rifling through the items, there is a bunch of junk, broken pieces of metal, springs, and other miscellaneous stuff, but there are a few items that catch his trained eye.

The first is a small blade, the blade is carved from a black bone-like material, its handle wrapped in leather. When Jax grasps the blade in his hands, he feels more confident in himself and that he can easily take anyone larger than him.

The second is a set of leather armor, which after wiping off some of the mud that stubbornly clings to it, Jax notices it is inlaid with esoteric runes, but he can't determine their origins.

A large, serrated blade lies lengthwise across one of the shelves, a tiny hole burnt into the stone just under the tip of the large weapon.

There is a moldy sack with a handful of gems of various sizes in the bag, also there is a small chest with coins in it.

[sblock=OOC]
Items:
1 - Goblin Totem Dagger +1 - 1 guess who this would be good for ;) - level 2
2 - Repulsion Leather Armor +1 - level 2
3 - Acidic Fullblade +1 - level 4
Gems - 2 gems worth 189 gp each, 3 worth 267 each
Coins - 600 gp worth

ok, so with time gold, the level 2 PC's should get a bit more gold (78 to be exact) so I've given a few gems that make a bit more IC sense to balance it.

XP spreadsheet attached now. Level 2 PC's get 1709 & level 1's get 1646.

This is on top of the +1 Amulet of Physical Resolve, 2 potions of healing & 400 gp worth of coins/gems awarded below

I guess Crag will just take some of the coins/gems appropriate to his share this time around, since the dagger is obviously for the scaled, short one, and he doesn't wield a Fullblade, nor does he wear leather armor. So if others want to take those, I'm okay with that :)

R1: If we sell the gems, do we only get 1/5th of their worth? I.E. 37gp 8silver for the 189 gems and 53 gold 4 silver for the 267 gems? [/sblock]
 

// As I recall, gems are just cash with flavor, so they are worth their full value. Dorn would certainly be interested in the leather armor, but Rrek may get better use out of the associated daily power..
 


Dorn steps toward the leather armor and examines the runes, fascinated.

"I've never seen anything like this before. I wish I could read these runes, but I've never had instruction in such things" he admits. Though the runes are indecipherable, the power contained within them speaks to him. "I feel... There is a strange force here". Dorn squeezes the armor between his fingers.

"Mind if I try something, Ingot? Don't worry, I don't think I can hurt you with this." Dorn folds the armor over his right arm, takes a few steps back, and closes his eyes, attempting to connect with the magic contained in the runes. The runes begin to glow slightly, and Dorn opens his eyes. "Here goes!" Dorn runs shoulder first at the 'forged, and once he comes within a few feet of him, he stops short, whereupon Ingot is pushed back several feet by an invisible force.

"Whoa!" Dorn smiles broadly. "This could come in handy! Especially when you guys aren't around to keep me out of trouble.."
