Unfortunately, I have bad news to share once again. This has not been a good few weeks.
Abnninja has apparently left us. In spite of the timing, this does not appear to be related to the recent troubles. Please check his introduction thread for details.
Aside from the loss of one of this sites most active posters, this presents problems for this game in particular. There are no scenarios in which Fay would willingly leave Lia to march into danger, and Lia in turn would be compromised by his death. I am going to be working with Kyr on how she wishes to handle this matter.
For Lawrance, I am going to say he can pick up a team of level 2 hirelings, 2 grunts and a cleric, for 6 gp a day, if that sounds good to him. Sorry for the delay, things have been a little… off of late.
For everyone, I'll be moving the story forward shortly if there's nothing further that needs doing.
I think I am ready to move on. Though all of you that poke fun at my tendency to roll really well, for the first time Poljen's new HP roll was not very good. As your resident meat shield/damage magnet, I would guess you WANT him to get more HP... That's okay. It was bound to catch up with me.
Daishain, you mentioned that we'd have to share the loot with the lizardfolk. How hard is that negotiation going to be? Based on their plight with the golem, I would think they'd be very happy with +1 swords and bows to defend the swamp along with the other items the group doesn't claim, yes? They could perhaps take some armor as well.
(Is any of the MW armor full plate? Velon may grab that in case a specific mechanic is developed such that it would be worth switching too. For now it will just be fancier to be worthy of Bahamut, once he pays to get his adamantine moved to it.)
Team, I believe the following is what people have expressed interest in regarding the items. Apologies if I missed anything in your recent post. I think we should award the following members these items because they are the only ones who expressed interest (Unsure of Zarra's interest, but put it on the list). Beyond that, there are some other items I'd think we would seriously consider…
Cratol - bag of gems
Velon - spell slot ring, 1 potion
Zarra - Quiver of Ehlonna(?)
Lia - Bracers of Archery, 1 potion
Poppo - spellbook, 2+ potions
Bag of holding? (Poppo/Velon have interest) oathbow? (No one?)
Oswald's MW bow (No one?)
40gp (Divide evenly? How many are left in party?) remaining potions (Split evenly).
Its not going to be very hard of a negotiation to get a handful of specific things, Snapjaw will back you up there. They're also not going to quibble over the mage's belongings or that of your comrade. What would be a problem is if you walk off with half of the bows or something along those lines.
No MW full plate here I'm afraid. However, all magic/adamantium/mithral gear is considered Masterwork by default, so you're covered as to how fancy you look.
Kyrroeth posted that they wanted the oathbow as well for Lia, and yes put me down for the Quiver of Ehlonna.
I will say, I hope things aren't what they appearing involving Abnninja. I'm concerned, yet hopeful that things will be worked out and they return.
