Malvoisin's Savage Tide OOC Thread *Resurrected*

[stonegod]

Col don't. That's why he kept it (and the masterwork buckler and studded leather) aside.

I don't really have an issue with the rapier. I have an issue with Col pocketing all the gold though

'es only pocketed two extra gold, sirrah! And the ring. And the silver. And the potions.

Don't worry, he'll share later (but splitting 30 gp by 7 [the party at the time] isn't even).

I think by use helps. The way we usually do it in RL is calculating the split, then if a person wants a particular items, part of their "split" goes back to the "pool" which is then split amongst the rest. This can also help for splitting of "party" items (like the wand of cure light wounds I mentioned---if we found one, it wouldn't be fair to charge Col for it as it would be "used" by everyone).

I'm good with whatever the group decides for splitting it up, whether we base it on who can use it, or take it out of a pool, or whatever. After all, we are all in this together.

 

[Malvoisin]

I don't think it'll be an issue. Do we want to handle treasure division ICly, OOCly, or a mixture of the two? Methinks this is best answered afore we go much further.

I say a mix....you can make mundane claims here OOC, and if a certain item is particularly of interest (or, if you want to confront a certain mad archivist about a suspected lack of equity in his treasure division practices? )...you can role-play as such over in the IC.

I think given how dangerous the APs tend to be, the treasure division should be based on useage first. The assumption being that Anar hitting 5% more often will keep me alive more than 315 gp * 50% divided among 6 people would.

Perhaps we just keep a tally of who's gotten what in the past in order to make future conflicts easier to resolve.


Edit: I suppose I should put in a bid for the studded leather as well.

I'm planning to keep a treasure tally in the first post of the Rogue's Gallery, in addition to the XP log.

Ah. I can send you a few descriptions via gmail latter if you wish. Just send me a ping through EnWorld (or directly---the address is my ENWorld username at gmail).

I'm not horribly worried about it either, I just like making sure everyone is on the same page; I've seen games fall apart over treasure division before.

 

[GwydapLlew]

Oh, I meant to ask - Mal, how do you feel about being able to substitute Strength for Charisma in Intimidate checks? It's an optional rule, but I'd be quite interested in your answer.

Do, to review:
- 30 gp
- 7 light x-bows: 122.5 gp
- 70 bolts: Usually, these don't sell, so normal ammo is "free"
- 6 leather armors: 30 gp
- 6 bucklers: 45 gp
- 6 rapiers: 60 gp
- mwk studded leather: 87.5 gp
- mwk buckler: 82.5
- mwk raipier: 160 gp
- gold earring: ~50 gp
- silver ring: ~25 gp
- 2 potions (unidentified)

That is 662.5 gp in the pool, not counting the potions. Now, if we divide by 6 (the party that entered), that is 110 gp, 4 sp share each (with 1 sp remainder). Divided by 7 (w/ Niccoli) that is 94 gp, 6 sp, and 4 cp each (with 2 cp remainder). FYI, if we just divide by 5 (the total now), that is 135 gp, 5 sp each.

Note, that in any case, that is not enough for Anar's claim. So he would "go in the hole" for the future or pay the different amount in real money. I'd go with the former (which is more akin to halfrogman's "write it down" method).

Course, I could be a bit too LN about this.

Mal, would a Psion make a suitable PC for Savage Tide? Easy to make a blaster from one of those....
