Scions of the New World:Scene One-Gertle's Gulch...

[Sparky]

Zadkiel's eyes widen at the implication of the elven-made arrows. He walks over to Brahnz and holds his hand out, "Mind if I take a look?" He inspects the arrows closely. His eyes narrow as he peers at the distinctive fletching and he absently answers Brahnz's question. "Uh... not much." The Marshall is absorbed. His wings twitch as a breeze gusts into the bowl.



OOC: Uriel - any idea about the arrows, where they might have come from, or who? Whistler is distracted - Uriel did he find anything on the body? I didn't say he checked - should I have or is that understood? I didn't think to do it, actually.

OoC:No harm done, the body hasn;t gone anywhere.

The dead Scion's wears a suit of Master-Worked scalemail of a dullblue color.. His sword is also of similar (MW) make, being a bastard sword of dwarvish design... In a pouch, the Scion had a few personnal trinkets (some teeth from a bear,it looks like, a pair of dice, a worn silver coin and a 4" piece of Ivory. It might have fetched 10 or 20 Gold, although it has been marred with deep grooves, 4 of them, as if he had ticked off checks for something that he had acomplished.It might bring 5 Gold now.
As well, he had a small pouch containing 30 GP and 3 small stones, tourmalines (appraisal checks needed).

Wallam comes out of the foundry with a bag of something heavy, saying that there are more inside. Within, you see four sacks (2 are sets of saddlebags, actually), all containing money.These were hidden under a recently torn up floorboard. The boy sheepishly says he accidently discovered the hidden treasure.

Found:
Sack One: 623 CP, 234SP, 42 GP (This is the one that Wallam brought outside)

Sack Two: 124 CP,854SP, 126 GP

Sack Three: A bolt of red silk that might bring a hundred gold pieces in Gertle's Gulch and a smaller one of blue that might bring 50 GP.

Saddle-Bags One: 244 SP,325GP

Saddle-Bags Two: 302CP,329SP,125GP

The boy points to sack One and says 'Thet one wuz our's....
the dwarf and miners similarly look at the loot and register suprise,then elation,then resignation, as they know that whatever wealth they had has been lumped togeher, and they can hardly ask for anything, since you have saved their lives...


Edited: I had left out one sack.

The Mantis watches the little boy drag out the saddle bags and looks at the pulled up floor board.

Accidentally, huh? Gabe gives a mental snort.

 

[Sparky]

Zadkiel's attention is drawn away from the arrows by the sound of scraping. And clinking. He looks up to Wallam's dogged, dragging progress. Need to check out that mine before The Boys get themselves killed. He hands the arrow back to Brahnz and points out the pile he'd gathered of the Orcs' and Scion's posessions.

His amber eyes quickly asses the worth of Wallam's haul - and its likely origin. He watches the cascade of expressions on the miner's faces. It's not just my decision. I wish it was. He raises his eyes and scans the others as they gather around. But they risked their necks. What can I say? The thoughts make him scowl and he gives himself a shake before looking up at the foundry. He almost grins at Gabriel's snort, hard eyes glinting as he glances at Gabriel and then back to Wallam.

"More inside, eh? Why don't you show me, Wallam," the Marshall grates. He checks his weapons reflexively and stretches his shoulders.

I cannot accept monitary reward. I am after all very self sufficiant and these people need all the money they can get. they will have my share. Brahnz says. She will look at the bones and trinkets. after a moment she raises her head and says These are all luck talismans. This Scion thought he needed a great deal of luck to survive. He he he.

ooc: Cast Detect Magic.

 

[Uriel]

ooc: Cast Detect Magic.

None of the objects radiate any sort of magic.

 

[Velenne]

Nor does Semm request any 'share' of any reward. As far as he's concerned, he's done a good thing and made the world a better place for a few people...if not a few orcs and a malicious scion along the way. But it couldn't be helped. The Animal must feed.

A short ways away, he is on watch. Really, it's part meditation and part watch, but if it is true that this Scion had a superior, then that superior might come looking...

 

[Jeremy]

The Mantis collects what he believes to be his fair share. It will likely go towards the repair and upkeep of his gear that will likely end up just killing some other slaver.

It's not like a wench is like to drink with me lookin' like this. And the whore who would take my coin, I don't want ta see. Gabe's train of thought is not pleasant as he quietly and efficiently secures his share for travel. Though what Brahnz thinks some mud muckers are going to do with that much bread I can't imagine. She's too soft-hearted. Whistler's conscience is too big for his health too, but he also knows what's gotta be done when the chips 're down.

oC:That's a pretty big haul, actually. Even the most altruistic PC doesn't have to give it all to the NPCs...none of them had anything like that much cash, as is obvious.

 

[ferretguy]

Looking over the gathered loot, Tzzecct states Wouldn't mind keeping one of these gems....perhaps we can unload all this armour and weapons back at town...besides which shouldn't we be heading off there?
