Once Brutus is laid to rest, some of his gear will be available to the PCs. There are some in-game background for the character that the PCs will learn about in my next post before that happens.
When his body was found, his
+1 silvered greataxe was missing as was his magical amulet and a special ring given to him by Lady Pendour. (The items were stolen by Eike and/or Xander.) If the PCs find the villains and recover these items, they will be allowed to keep the amulet but
not the axe or ring. (It will be explained shortly.)
These items were found with his body: his
+1 gargoyle studded leather, and punching dagger, as well as the heavy crossbow and bolt case w/24 bolts and 9
screaming bolts that the PCs gave to him when he first accompanied them to Gurnard's Head. The crossbow and bolts are theirs to reclaim, if they want. Or, they will go to another member of the militia.
Brutus became quite fond of Sir Quinn, so the half-ogre boy's special armor is Quinn's to inherit if
@ScottDeWar_jr chooses to claim it. If not, Brutus will be buried wearing it (along with his dagger). I'll post the stats for the armor if SDWj decides to take the armor.
Brutus will be buried after the two villains who killed him are brought to justice. Until then, his body is protected by the
gentle repose spell. (That is one of the few necromancy spells that isn't forbidden to be cast, as long as it isn't used to raise the dead without the permission of a cleric of Hades. Again, I will explain why in my next post.)
