The word that all adventurers like to hear!The <a href="http://TheOnlySheet.com" target="_blank">Loot Divider</a> is a workbook that functions in both Excel and Open Office. It is difficult to compare to other products, as a Google search turned up no other tools like this. The Loot Divider is NOT a treasure generator. It is more akin to a 'treasure accounting' Tool.What does it do exactly?When a group of adventurers find treasure, they usually keep the usable stuff for themselves, and sell the rest. This is where the Loot Divider comes in. Its first task, is to help you price items that you've found without requiring the need to check the book for individual item prices. This means you can save time but avoiding item price lookups. All the mundane items of Pathfinder RPG are included, as are all magical items and even the Epic Items of the SRD (3.5).How to sell items?When items (magical or otherwise) are entered in the Treasure! sheet of the Loot Divider, their value will be displayed. The items 'sell' price is displayed, using the standard selling rate (which is set at %50 by default). This sell rate can be changed for a single items should the need arise. If you have an item that is a work of art, you can tell the Loot Divider its value simply by using the dollar sign followed by the sell value (given by the DM) (like Silver Necklace$55). A video of the Treasure! sheet can be found on the Loot Divider's home page. It will show you how to enter a magical item with properties.Reduce conflicts over Magical items!How does your group handle situations when two (or more!) players want the same item that was found? Well, to avoid conflicts, the Loot Divider allows for the tracking of who got which item using its Tracker Sheet. In that Sheet, up to ten players can be tracked by the amount of treasure they have 'taken' for themselves. With this tracking, it becomes easier to resolve conflicts: The Player who received the 'least' treasure so far should have priority to the item! What about Items that are good, but that nobody wants to 'own'?Some items can be considered "group" items: Stuff that could be used by anyone, at any part of the adventure. For examples, curative magics often falls into that group of items. Items that are for the benefit of the group can be listed in the Group sheet, with a location (which can be a specific player or a place).Can it be customized?The Data table of the Loot Divider allows for the addition of hundreds of custom items. New Armor, Ammunition, Shield and Weapon properties can be added in the Tables sheet. You can even find user shared properties on the Loot Divider's forum.Reporting Loot?The Loot Divider has a Reporting sheet that allows you to make nice reports of the loot for the other players - either on a BBCode compatible forum, or simply using text.Conclusion!After using the Loot Divider for a little while, it becomes apparent that this Tool should have been created a long time ago!! It makes treasure sharing much easier, and significantly reduces the amount of time wasted in looking up the price of items - and possibly the time spent arguing about the ownership of this new magical item!!RiTz21</blockquote>
