[LPF] Expansion

[sunshadow21]

You take some time to search the vault. The papers and family items you were sent to find are quite easy to locate. Out of the other odds and ends, you actually do manage to find a fair amount of gems, coins, and other interesting items in the various nooks and crannies.

Saktouk Bekloric, half-orc monk

Saktouk offers no resistance to Veniarius taking the cloak.

"The family drunk does seem to be a problem for well-off families, I hear," Saktouk offers. "But can't hurt to try the other doors, too. Seems to me a drunk can sometimes be too lazy to actually transport treasures; might have just moved it close by..."

"I don't think that drunk looted this place," Megan says. "For one, if he can get in here, why doesn't he just take his papers and heirlooms with him to begin with? Also, he never requested anything else aside from those paltry items, so what's the point of deceiving us to come here?"

"Something is amiss. I think someone else took the treasure. Treasure that rightly belongs to us!"

OOC: Dalkon, that post was more making fun of myself for rolling a 1.

OOC: A bit of clarification. Thomas was not the one who requested the papers, that was Samuel, who actually does care about family history. Thomas pretty much took anything of value out of the vault that he could find as soon as he felt his relatives wouldn't complain about it, and sold it to feed his gambling and drinking habits. You can hear all about how the family feels about that when you get back to the inn and give the papers to Nathaniel.

OOC: Ah, thanks for that. I guess the story is not as dark I thought

OOC: So do Megan and Audra have any objections to Veniarus taking the cloak?

 

[VVilhem]

OOC: How is loot suppose to be handled? Do we just take what we want or does the taker pays the party the loot's market price divided by half? We haven't had to figure this out since all the loot so far has been just coins.

 

[sunshadow21]

OOC: Usually you use whatever you find during the adventure. After the adventure, total cash value of the encounters is calculated, and you can either take all in coin, or subtract the value of whatever items you want to keep from your total cash.

 

[VVilhem]

OOC: SS, so we still have to buy our treasure at full price? Why not just buy it at a store then? Dalkon, you can keep the cloak for now.

 

[sunshadow21]

OOC: That's how it's been done in all the games I've finished as characters. The advantage with getting it through the adventure is you don't have to roll for it. Any items not taken by the players in the adventures are thrown into the shopping thread, where they can be bought without rolling. I suspect the full price thing is an effort to maintain overall charcter balance.
