The sage coughs again seemingly dislodging some of the phlegm that was preventing him from speaking, "Well done. I felt a presence leave my mind and had hoped that it signalled a success on your part. Had it taken longer to close that portal I dear say that something far worse would've come through. From my research it was a rift exactly like that one that had brought the terror that the Five faced above Daunton. Your quick thinking has saved the city. While in the past the actions of the Five were very public, your's I'm afraid will remain less so. Daunton will remain clueless to the imminent danger that it was in due to your timely action."
"Riardon, the sword is quite special, its known as a Sunblade." he says pointing to where it is sitting in the study.
"As a token of my appreciation and in recompense I have a few items that I'd like to bestow upon you. I'm afraid I'll need your help again Rurdev, for they are all stored in the basement." he says leading the shifter back past the closet where the armor and orb were stored. The two head down a narrow set of stairs and return after many minutes bearing a number of small boxes.
Inside you find:
A brooch of shielding +1
A pair of Burning Gauntlets
A Shield of Protection
An Orb of Ultimate Imposition +1
Astrepius also produces the 200 gold coins for Vashik and Dane.
The coins retreived from the altar amount to 1390 gold.
[XP Reward]
Sept 9 - Oct 9 = 1 month = 104 xp ea.
2nd level major quest = 125 ea.
2nd level puzzle = 125 ea.
Bonus for solving puzzle = 50xp for Dane.
So here are the totals I have you at:
Incarnation 1941+104+125+125=2295
Rurdev 1941+104+125+125=2295
Riardon 1495+104+125+125=1849
Dane 1208+104+125+125+50=1612
Vashik 1646+104+125+125=2000
[Treasure Reward]
This is where I struggled the most and why I've taken so long to post. I'm going to apply the LEB rules to help as guidelines (1 item + 1/5 level gold per level of the adventure) and I'm going to count that as 1.75 levels because only two party members advance to 3rd.
So everyone should have 2 items and 150gp.
Treasure:
Incarnation (Rod of Deadly Casting +1 [lvl(1)+1] & burning gauntlets [lvl(2)+4])
Riardon (Sylvan Hide +1 [lvl(1)+2] & Sunsword +2 [lvl(1)+3])
Rurdev (Lighting Scimitar +1 [lvl(1)+4] & Brooch of Shielding +1 [lvl(2)+1])
Dane (100gp as promised) & Shield of Protection [lvl(1)+2] & another item of level 3.
Vashik (100gp as promised) & Orb of Ultimate Imposition [lvl(1)+2] & another item of level 3.
Gold gained by Party (3 gems [100/ea], 2 small vials (potion of healing [50gp ea], 120gp) = 520
Gold owed = 750+2 lvl 3 items worth (1360-200) = 1910.
Final = 1390gp found.
