BONUS EXP: Group: 400xp
MODIFIERS: n/a


FINAL TOTAL BASE EXP: 18,521xp
TOTAL BASE EXP EACH PLAYER: (divided by 8 = 2,315.1) = 2,316xp each (base)
With 10% Bonus: (231.6) + base = 2,548xp each (w/ 10% bonus)

Caelvanna: +2,548xp

(* The XP listed above is only the portion that will be applied and divided by the actual party. It does not represent the total XP from the encounter, some of which has been applied to the other npc characters in the immediate party.)


~ XP for weapons, equipment and mundane items is 1gp = 1xp. XP for magic items will be 1/10 of their estimated GP value. Special or Relic items will be adjudicated on a case by case basis. All fractions are rounded up.

Note1: Some of these items are still not completely identified, properly valued by the party (In Game) at present, but will be during the course of the voyage. We'll be counting their base XP here as identified/used/etc.

Note2: Even though we only have 7 PCs at present currently, all figures were divided by 8. Even though the PC/player that is no longer in the party cannot claim any of the coin, items or magic found, they were still an active and contributing member of the party during the encounter and helped the party to make it through, so will be included in the XP distribution. The same goes for any PCs that might die during the course of an encounter/mission. They will be considered to have gained xp up until the time of death.

PEKT/XP: Encounter #2: giant squid attack on Seahawk

#2 Post by Argennian »

Encounter 2: Giant squid attack! viewtopic.php?f=35&t=1017&p=29304#p29304
(TOD: early am Day 10, sailing west on the Sea of Ghosts on the Seahawk)


KIAs:

1 squid, giant: (attacked the Seahawk; driven off by crew*)
2,000 + 1536 = 3,536xp total


Treasure: none


Number of party members that fought the creature: 15 (7 primary, 8 secondary)
Primary party members lost: 0
Secondary party members lost: 2


BASE/SUBTOTAL EXP: 3,536xp
BONUS EXP: Group: 250xp
MODIFIERS: n/a

FINAL TOTAL BASE EXP: 3,786xp
TOTAL BASE EXP TO EACH CHARACTER: (divided by 15 = 252.4xp) = 253xp each (base)
With 10% bonus: (25.3) + base = 279xp

Bogdan: +279xp

Note: Even though 2 secondary party members of the 8 that were present and fought the creature were killed in action, all figures were divided by 15. Even though that PC/NPC is no longer in the party, they were still an active and contributing member during the encounter and helped the party to make it through, so will be included in the XP distribution. The same goes for any PCs that might die during the course of an encounter/mission. They will be considered to have gained xp up until the time of death.


* There are times when the party might not necessarily kill the creature or enemy in question, but are successful in running it off and/or making it retreat for its life. In many of these instances, it remains the DM's prerogative to assign partial or even full XP for the encounter as seen fit!

PEKT/XP: Encounter #3: mermen ambush at shipwreck debris fie

#3 Post by Argennian »

Encounter 3: Mermen ambush! viewtopic.php?f=35&t=1017&start=100#p33328
(TOD: early afternoon Day 11, sailing west across the Sea of Ghosts on the Seahawk)


KIAs:

120 mermen warriors: (34 KIAed, 10 wounded, 6 fled from Fear spell, 3 slept from Sleep spell; remainder retreated)
240 + 21,600 = 21,840xp total

Treasure:
(includes all items recovered from the shipwreck debris field)

1. - various colored southern textiles (25gp)
2. - 4 bundles of southern silk, white (200gp)
3.- 2 large backpacks* (containing high-end mountaineering gear and about a dozen very old and strange tools of either ancient gnome or dwarf manufacture; Najania is currently studying these closely)

4.- 5 lb bundle of Stygian Coast high leaf and poppies (10,000-12,500gp)
5.- Chest, small (lockable) with silver-gilded leafing and strange designs* (contains a large and unusual-looking silver key (20gp*), a heavy silver necklace with a massive red ruby (7,500-8,000gp*) and a small scroll tube with a parchment letter/coding within it (100gp). The key and necklace appear to have been enchanted or magickated in some way**)

6.- Eastern ornamental vase, sealed with reddish wax* (still unopened; the reddish wax is identical to the reddish material found on the locks of one of chest found on the island. It has a very powerful eastern protection spell cast on it that Najania will be able to dispel soon) (vase: 250gp, contents: ??)
- The urn is eastern by the looks of it, and very old. A reddish wax seals it, and it would seem that substance is identical to that which was found to be on the lock of the chest that Bogdan and the others discovered here on the island! There were also protection magics cast on it but they are not the exact same kind/type that were placed upon the chest. Although we have not yet opened the urn to ascertain it's contents, Shanny's spirit elders believe it to be somehow connected to those that ambushed us back on the trail.*


Total GP value of items present: 18,095-21,095gp at present (* some items not currently valued/still unknown)
Total XP value of items present: 18,095-21,095xp
Total XP value of the urn and iit's contents: ????xp

EDIT: Date / XP updates to items when identified


Number of party members that fought mermen: 21 (7 primary, 14 secondary)
Primary party members lost: 0
Secondary party members lost: 0

BASE EXP: 21,840xp (Kills) + 20,000xp* (treasure/items)
SUBTOTAL EXP: 41,840xp
BONUS EXP: Group: 500xp
MODIFIERS: *,**


FINAL TOTAL BASE EXP: 42,340xp *
TOTAL BASE EXP EACH CHARACTER: (divided by 21 = 2,016.2xp) = 2,017xp each (base)
With 10% Bonus: (202xp) + base (2017) = 2,219xp each (w/ 10% bonus)

Bogdan: +2,219xp
Caelvanna: +2,219xp
Emm: +2,219xp
Lauranna: +1,110xp magic-user/+1,110xp thief
Ulrich: +2,219xp

PEKT/XP: Encounter #4 giant owl*

#4 Post by Argennian »

Encounter 4: Giant Owl! viewtopic.php?f=35&t=1360&start=20#p42686
(TOD: late afternoon Day 13, landing on the island)


KIA/Driven off/Other*:

1 owl, giant: (moved to attack landing party; halted by Emm casting her speak with animals spell)
150 + 116 = 266xp total


Treasure: island intel/stave off future attacks!


Number of party members that engaged the creature: 1 (Emm)
Primary party members lost: 0
Secondary party members lost: 0


BASE/SUBTOTAL EXP: 266xp
BONUS EXP: 100xp
MODIFIERS: n/a

FINAL TOTAL BASE EXP: 366xp
TOTAL BASE EXP: 366xp (base) (For Emm only!)
With 10% bonus: (36.6) + base = 403xp

Emm: +403xp


~ Emm's use of her speak with animals spell allowed her and her alone to stop the giant owl's attack and to be able to communicate with it. This resulted in an alliance of sorts and ultimately some intel for the party. The druid will be communing with the giant owl again, so potential bonus xp adjustment still possible.

Encounter 6: Giant Crustacean, Crab! viewtopic.php?f=35&t=1575&p=57306#p57306
(TOD: early morning of Day 14 (Day 2 on the island), in watery cave discovered off western offshoot of northern game trail)


KIAed:

1 crab, giant: (came up out of underwater hole in cave floor by ledge)
75 + 57 = 132xp total

Treasure:
found in watery cave where the giant crab emerged

1. waterlogged old skiff with 1 good oar (25gp)floats but needs some attention & another oar!
- Re-serviced and cleaned up; tied up in cove by bow of the Seahawk.

2. contents of crates on ledge & previously-submerged small crate (+1,000,000gp*) on ledge; one was in boat but ended up in underwater hole after encounter
- These crates contain various pottery, textiles and other artifacts that appear to be ancient gnomish and dwarvish in nature. Najania says they are older than anything they had in their museums back home and he believes them to be evidence that the lineage of his ancestors goes back even further than they thought. (as such, these items are absolutely priceless to the gnomish people and so are assigned a special amount*)

3. old, small chest, locked (est. +50,000gp*) found up on rock ledge; looks exactly like the one found earlier by the rat cave
Inside of it was some kind of strange, cylindrical object made of a metal-like material unlike anything ever seen before. It is very thin and precise in it's construction but the material is extremely heavy. Master Najania does not know what it is but suspects that it's meant to be assembled with other like pieces. For what purpose or end, he does not know. Yet...

GP value of treasure: contents of crates & small chest: 1,050,025gp*

(TOD: early evening Day 6 on island (Total time since departed Karagonia: Day 18), back around the fire at the beach HQ)


Treasure: gathered underwater from the former crab den in the coastal cave
Taken back to ship & cove:
1. 2 large sacks (@ 40 lbs/each) & 1 small sack (@ 15lbs.) of coins: (872gp) newly-minted Karagonian gold pieces that were scattered about the floor of the former crab den underwater

2. Very nice dagger & sheath (magical): (15,000gp) dagger +1/+2 vs small creatures; 10' radius magical light on command; A very old, yet powerful blade, magickated to the first level of power for standard applications. When facing creatures that are smaller than a man, it rises to the second level of power. And if that alone were not impressive enough, one can utter the command word inscribed in old-common on the hilt and it will give off magical light in a 10' radius! (command word: Lumen) ~ taken by Lauranna

3. 2 golden rings (1 magical, 1 not): (5,000gp + 25gp)
Ring of Free Action The powerful dweomer placed upon this ring enables the wearer to move at normal speed and rapidity, even when underwater. It also negates the effects of many spells that are designed to hold or restrict one's movement, such as a mage's Slow or Web spell or even a cleric's Hold Person spell. ~ taken by Bogdan

Agent's ring of the King's Eyes ring with an inscription on the inside of the band: two small circles on each side of what looks to be a dagger. It is a design recognized by members of The Hands as a symbol of the King's Eyes! Some agent amulets and bracelets have been seen with the same symbol; supposedly only given to those of rank and prestige among the King's Eyes! ~ taken by Billy


GP value of treasure: coins, magic dagger & magic ring: 20,897gp

Part 2: Ambush of the remaining soldier contingent: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=1690&start=140#p214636
Starting TOD: 6:41am of Day 10 on island (Total time since departed Karagonia: 20 days)


KIAs*/**:

- 3 Karagonian naval marines (3rd level fighters) 90xp
- 1 Karagonian naval cleric (5th level!) 500xp
(*1 Karagonian navy lieutenant / magic-user escaped!)
(** related KIAs: 1 already injured giant monitor lizard)

590xp + 1xp/hp (124hp)= 714xp total


Treasure:
- Pickles the hatchling dragon turtle! (from the mysterious large milky-white & sparkly egg (@ 5" long by 4" wide) found inside the inner cave cavern) Ulrich caring for!
- Giant baby owlet! (rescued from the soldiers' birdcage) Emm caring for!

Karagonian navy cleric's gear:
1. Karagonian masterwork chain armor (damaged* in fight with Bogdan) (150gp value*)
2. +1 medium metal shield (2,500gp value) Bogdan
3. +1 Footman's mace (2,000gp value) Ulrich
4. Ring of Swimming (5,000gp value) Emm
Osric,p364 wrote:Ring of Swimming (any): This magic jewellery bestows the ability to swim at a movement rate of 210 ft, if the wearer is clad in appropriate garments. The wearer can also dive up to 50 ft into the water without injury, assuming a water depth of 1½ ft for every 10 ft of diving distance. The wearer may hold his or her breath for 4 rounds, and can swim for up to 4 hours before needing an hour of rest. This rest can be gained while floating, since the ring also grants the ability to stay afloat under all but hurricane conditions.

5. Ring of Spell Turning (17,500gp value) Lauranna
Osric,p363 wrote:Ring of Spell Turning (any): This magic ring creates a powerful magic aura around the wearer that will partially reflect any spells cast at him or her back onto the spell caster. There are three exceptions to the spell turning ability the ring bestows:
• Area effect spells which are not directly targeted upon the ring bearer cannot be turned.
• Touch-based spells cannot be turned.
• Spell effects delivered by devices are not turned. Examples include: rods, staves, wands, rings. Note: spell scrolls are not considered devices.

When a spell is cast at the wearer of the ring of spell turning, he or she rolls a d10 and multiplies the result by 10. When damage from the spell attack is determined, the number generated by this roll indicates what percentage of the damage is reflected back upon the attacker. Thus if “6” appears on the d10, 60% of the damage rolled would be deducted from the attacking spell-caster’s hit points and 40% from the target. Further, for each 10% of difference between the damage percentage rolled and 100%, the ring-bearer gains +1 to his or her saving throw. Going back to the example above, the spell’s target would get a +6 to his or her saving throw and the spell caster would gain a +4.

The ring of spell turning also grants a saving throw against spells which normally do not allow one. In such a case, the save will be half of the percentage die roll for spell reflection. Returning once again to the example above, the ring wearer rolling a 60% chance of reflecting an attacking spell would gain a 30% saving throw, reducing or negating effects as appropriate to the spell.

Spells that only affect a certain number of levels must be able to affect the target’s and caster’s levels combined, otherwise the spell has no effect on either party. If the ring’s wearer wishes to receive the effects of a targeted spell, he or she must first remove the ring. (Healing spells are exempt, since they are touch-based.) If both caster and target are wearing rings of spell turning, roll d% and consult the table below.
d%
Result
01-70: Spell fails completely, no effect on target or caster
71-80: Spell takes full effect on both target and caster
81-97: Spell fails and both rings are destroyed
98-00: A rift into the Positive Material Plane opens, both target and caster are sucked in
6. Amulet of Life Protection (20,000gp value*) (currently unassigned)
Osric,p344,345 wrote:Amulet of Life Protection (any): The wearer of this broach is protected against attacks on his or her soul. The charm completely safeguards its wearer from possession, whether as the result of a spell or through the efforts of a demon, devil or like being. Furthermore, should the wearer be slain, his or her soul will enter the amulet and be protected for up to 1 week. If the amulet is destroyed during that time, however, the soul is destroyed along with it.

* POP1 (Osric,p123): For treasure recovered, the guideline is 1xp to the party per gold piece value, assuming that the money in question is successfully extracted from the adventure area and brought to a suitable home base or town. An exception is magic items, which should result in an experience point award of no more than one tenth of their gold piece value if kept.

Note: There are times when the party might not necessarily kill the creature or enemy in question, but are successful in running it off and/or making it retreat for its life. Conversely, there will be times when the party successful evades/bypasses the creature or enemy. In many of these instances, it remains the DM's prerogative to assign partial or even full XP for the encounter as seen fit!
