Out of Character: the CLW wand(S) would be best in the hands of whomever is most likely to still be standing at the end of particularly nasty combats, so they can revive the others. I'm thinking Krusten and Ildrahil again. The other three will be on or near the front line fairly often. If we stick with just one wand, then I'd say it goes to Ildrahil, we'll want Krusten on overwatch more often than not.
I take it we're selling the Wand then after all? Assuming Kn goes for the standard 50% market price on sales, that's 6,000 gp.
In any case, might I suggest we move things along in the leader thread? Get the escort mission with the merchants done so we can get back to more interesting tasks.

Out of Character: What about gold in hand? Remember I gave up all the other goodies with the understanding that Krusten would want some 'cash in hand'.
Cash breakdown went like this.
At the end of the run we ended up with 50,000 GP in trade credit (Or we will have that total after the side quest back to the cave), and 56,960 in physical currency.
Spent 30,000 in trade credit identifying all the magic items. Sold two wardrobes for another 12,000 gp. Zork and Faerydae are walking off with 20,000 gp apiece in coin, since their characters are retiring with no magic items claimed.
This leaves 20,000 in trade credit, and 28,960 in cash. An even split of that gives each of the remaining party members 4,000 in credit, and 5,792 in cash.
Bear in mind that the magic items you claimed have a combined value of 41,000 gp. With that added in, Krusten received a larger share than anyone else in the party. Save for Bastion with the Rod of Lordly Might that is, but he's the only one really suited to use that Rod to its best impact in combat, and its noncombat functions are made to benefit the entire party, not just him.
If you want more cash, the easy way would be to stick to your bow and sell the magic longsword. It is valued at 32,000.
Out of Character: Thanks for the breakdown. So I have 5792 in gold that I can use now and what's the part on the credit… is that a party pool?
The merchants around here couldn't afford to give us that much in the way of cash in return for the stolen goods, but the town locals will give you items/services, with their value counting towards the balance.
Think of it like a 4000 gp gift card that can be used to buy anything in this one particular town, but doesn't do you any good elsewhere.
That 4,000 is your share of the credit, do what you will with it. Though I do suggest spending the credit before spending the gold, that's what I've been doing.
Out of Character: Ah, thanks for the heads up. I've not been paying enough attention over the weekend so I'm glad to be up to speed now. Time for spending.
Out of Character: Okay, that makes three willing to split the cost of a CLW wand. Anyone else? That's only 150 gold apiece if we all pitch in, for 50 castings of Cure Light Wounds.
If anyone needs help deciding what to purchase for themselves, I'm willing to lend a hand.
All told, I would like to get things moving, we've been twiddling our thumbs for over a week now, and I'd like to test Bastion's build out for real .
Out of Character: I have asked the Dungeon Master about a couple of magic items I found that might be interesting, but I am having trouble finding much that would be really good for Albrecht at this level. I don't want to spend a ton of gold on stuff that won't be as useful next level when he gets wild shape. Any suggestions, Bastion? Or anybody else.
