[QUOTE="haakon1, post: 3523688, member: 25619"] Mules are inherently cool. I agree. Characters who are too stupid to remember to bring food or cold weather outfits, etc. deserve to get in a lot of trouble. Part of the fun of the game is equipping characters for the unknown. Nod, the mandatory treasure table (and WOTC saying DM's should be audited for compliance with it in one memorable advice column!) is one of many cheesy elements of D&D designed to make it overly safe (and thereby, less interesting). As for the trading of magic items, I do have one, but I keep a tally of its inventory, rather than the "anything under 2000 gp" method. Basically, I set the initial inventory, occassionally drop, and occassionally add, based on the theory that some other adventurers are also buying and selling from it. But everytime they go in, there's still the +1 scimitar nobody wants, etc. I think of it as an FLGS' used collection, in a small town with few customers. [/QUOTE]
