[QUOTE="mfloyd3, post: 6581388, member: 23867"] Larissa rounds on the wizard, her face a mask of outrage. [COLOR="#A9A9A9"]"You would take their gear?"[/COLOR] she demands in fury. [COLOR="#A9A9A9"]"Loot the bodies of men who fell in honorable combat? This is not the lair of some poisonous beast -- It is a field of honor!

"I would see that their loved ones are cared for."[/COLOR] [sblock=ooc] Sorry if this complicates RP for anyone else by potentially shaming them into not taking treasure, but here's what I want to do: Larissa has 7800 gp in-hand. That, combined with her share of the nominal value of the loot for the adventure, is enough to purchase an Extravagant cost of living for 10,000 gp. Here is the rough sequence of events: 1) She obtains the names of the slain, and gives enough of her own gold to the families to cover the balance of the 10k. 2) The gesture earns her sincere respect among the army, particularly given how badly the general has treated his own men by pushing them into a combat in which they were clearly outmatched.

Part of this effort involves a significant grant to expand the temple into something more grandiose. I'd been toying with the idea of buying the Extravagant lifestyle and going this route in a few levels. This is a bit sooner than I would have liked, but the RP creates too good an opportunity to pass up.
