Priceless = no price = free.

Also, you don't need a god for a religion.

EDIT: And also, considering that the prices of commodities, like deities, is based on the aggregate prices of supply and demand and I wouldn't pay more than a hundred dollars to have my own god. So they aren't necessarily priceless.

Could I get a judge to check my math and such for approval to use 2 DM credits from A Sailor Talks Too Much to credit Cepheus with 200gp (2nd level). Here is the story..... During the archery contest of DeSenzio's Tournament Cepheus and Lord Guillaume - who made an impression upon Cepheus of having questionable honor and ethics etc....-entered into a bet which resulted in Guillaume owing Cepheus 600gp and Cepheus with Jiktu owing Guillaume 4 days work. Jik'tu disappeared after losing to a woman in the tournament. Cepheus thinking this Lord is out to get him takes another job out of town instead of showing to collect his money and work for Guillaume. Cepheus had been counting on the money and has resolved to collect. (being N alignment does not see a problem with collecting since he fears he will come to harm if he does his 4 days work which in his mind releases him from his debt but does not release Guillaume from his.) With some shady secretive after hours extra work outside the city on one of Guillaumes estates he has managed to get away with 200gp without being caught. He does not want to get too greedy and raise suspicion so he did not take the entire 600gp.

This sounds good BigB. Very well thought out.

Some of these posts here, as well as one by Somone in another thread had me thinking about a news article I read the other day. Spam, it seems, is very popular in Hawaii. So popular, in fact, that McDonald's has begun offering an egg & spam McMuffin. No word yet, though, on when they'll start offering Spam, Spam, eggs, Spam, bacon, Spam, Spam,Spam, Spam McGriddle, Spam, hashbrowns, Spam, Spam & coffee.

At first, I had planned a follow up story with that, but thinsg havn't turn as I wished after DH dissapeared... so I don't see any problem that Cepheus have turns things that way.

Does anyone know how long its been IC since Slaves of the Dragon? I was thinking of reusing Grenton in the adventure i'm working on.

It has been several weeks for Planus, Opale and Jack (retired). They traveled quite a distance for their next adventure. Time is pretty adjustable in LEW though. Planus and Opale are now in the Astral plane so feel free to have your adventure take place during those intervening weeks if you want. Its unlikely Planus or Opale will be popping in to say, "Hey, that should have already happened a long time ago."

Got me curious. I'm thinking of bringing in a new character from Grenton.

Thanks to both of you. Trying to come up with some interesting ways for Cepheus to increase his reputation since Jik'tu (DERHAUPTMAN) is no longer around Cepheus may still finish the suit of platemail intended for Jik'tu and let others he adventures with borrow/rent it. I can just see some fighter/paladin/cleric going into battle in armor with big words on it "rent me, cheap just $19.95"

Renting a cleric for 19.95, that's cheap, even better than going to the hospital. I want one!

I'd say that's about right, it likely wasn't much more than that, and as SlagMortar said, time can be a bit "fluid" in LEW. If you've got something planned, I'd like to hear it!

Are you planning on retiring one of your characters, then?

Anyone know a good battle map maker?
