[OOC] Constables of the 14th Ward

[jkason]

Ugh. I'm afraid I'm slightly swamped at the moment, and haven't had the time to catch up on all the activity both IC and OOC on this game (it's by far the most active one I'm in PBP). Until then, feel free to NPC Moru as needed.

I think it might be simpler to just divide the cash equally among active constables (probably no share for Rahvin unless he reappears soon and none yet for Brae- agreed on none for Wally). Then we can entertain requests for items, based on party vote and common sense (for example, the wand ought to go to someone who can use it, and the short sword should go to somebody who actually fights with one already). Some people may come up a bit short, but it will probably balance out next time we get a big haul.

Yeah, we have been burning up the circuits lately, haven't we? I've been wanting to pull back a bit, too. Actually, the thing that we need Moru for right now is to check out Darius's tattoo. That's pretty low-impact for you, isn't it? Moru and Darius certainly don't have to go off with the other guys on their little "jaunt."

Uh, could you put that in English please? Becasue I am just a simple, unedumacated Urban Ranger and that quite honestly made no sense to me. In bid for simplicity, Jonas will forgo any claim to any piece there and just take a share, whatever you all figure that out to be in the end.

Sorry. If we split the gold eight ways, that's 948.82 gp per person. So the outstanding question is: what do we do with the magic items?

1. Darius's suggestion was to let party members bid for them. Darius offered 280 gp for the +2 dagger, which would be paid as 40 gp to the other members of the party.

2. Upon reconsideration, Darius thinks that the market price for each item should be what a party member has to pay if he wants the item. I'm not sure how to read the tables, but it looks like a +2 dagger goes for 8302 gp, which is way more than Darius wants to pay, even if he could afford it. Let's sell it.

3. The simplest option is to just sell the items and split the money. Good magic items are hard to find, so we want to give our party members an opportunity to claim such items before we sell.

4. Why can't we split the money and let people have the items they like and will see the most use since it will help the whole group.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Pretty much every party I've been a part of has just split the magic items amongst the members, selling any the group didn't want. If more than one party member wants an item, they work it out - usually by one person allowing the other to have the item with the agreement that they get 'first pick' in the next items contested by those persons. It usually works out well, and most of the items are kept and eventually get used for the good of the party.

For his part, SoulFetter wouldn't mind getting the thieves tools. They appear to be sized for him, and though he doesn't have the skill to use them right now, you never know . . .
He really has no interest in any of the other items.

 

[Scotley]

As my esteemed (and often steamed ) Co-Dm noted we are taking a hands off approach; however, I will say that future magical treasure will be of more interest to specific characters. For several reasons that the DM's prefer to keep to themselves, the initial magic items were pretty generic.

Hey, I resemble that remark!

Done. I'm slowly working my way through the rest.

 

[pathfinderq1]

Looking over the list again, there are some items we are unlikely to use, so they might as well be sold. Some of the stuff, especially anything healing related, we ought to keep.

Thea is willing to keep the random potions and scroll on a "just in case" basis- she'll store them in her Haversack.

For the GMs: if we sell some of the items (namely those listed as "Sell" below), should we figure half book value or full (taking into account our presumed connections and excellent negotiation skills)?

For anyone else: If you want anything, speak up now
