[QUOTE="Goonalan, post: 8232541, member: 16069"] Oh, you're such a heartless soul, I would never do that. Hgraam took, from memory- some rations (jerky), a piton, a torch, a tinderbox and a bone charm given to Daktari by one of the peasants that the Dark Squad saved from the Manticores. Just for info all of the items had duplicates in the same (or another PCs) inventory- even the bone charm, the PCs got three of them from the grateful Manticore survivors. So, that's not it- you cynic. Note, I specified the rations were jerky above, not because I love specificity, or for some diabolical DM reason, just to make the following joke- In game the kindly DM asked what the PCs had in their rations- because Hgraam wanted to know what his options were. Buggles must have been away from the mic at that moment- the other PCs therefore filled in the gaps, rations = hard tack, jerky, stonebread etc. Later on when the Giant Crayfish came nosing round the LTH Buggles said- "I throw the thing a banana from my lunch box." Lots of folk laughed at the fact that Buggles had a banana in his pack-up/rations, so- I tried again, what do you Buggles have in your rations- "Errr... sandwiches- egg and cress, a packet of frazzles (bacon flavoured crisps/chips), a wagon-wheel (a large chocolate and mallow biscuit), and a can of top deck shandy- mmm, good. Oh... and the banana." So, there's the hard-bitten adventurers munching and gnawing on their rock-like tack and nibbling around the mould on their rations, and then there's Buggles who seems to be on a school trip, bemoaning the fact that he forgot his hazelnut yogurt. It's the same game- just the outlook differs. Note, I entirely avoided telling you, of course, what Hgraam was up to. Stay safe and well. goonalan [/QUOTE]
