Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2021
Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
That's quite a bit more XP than I expected. Yay!
The only "treasure" we have is Rhybek's equipment, right? Are we assuming we head back to town from here? Lug would probably want to consult with the dwarves to see what he should do with Rhybek's stuff. He knows the dwarves have funny rules about who owns stuff that used to belong to a dwarf, but he doesn't know what those rules are.

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
Rhybek has the following items, not turned to stone.
Rhybek's battleaxe
Amulet of Moradin (neck)
Shield (on left arm)
Light Quarrels and case (left hip)
Light crossbow (right hip)
Dagger (belt)
Coin pouch (on belt)
- Green Medium Emerald (100gp value)
- blue zircon (75 GP value)
- deep blue lapis lazuli (75 GP value)
There is also the Craige the Mule, and his load:
Backpack
Bedroll
Mapcase, Leather
Flint & Steel
7 Torches
Hemp Rope, 100'
10 Large Sacks
Spade
Wineskin
Saddlebags
Grappling Hook
7 Trail Rations
10 Days of Mule Feed
2 healing potions
Clay has offered to cast Detect Magic. Once you're safely back at Beith's Watch and have rested, he does so. The Healing potions are, of course, magical. The Battleaxe and Amulet are both imbued by Rhybek himself. (2001xp each)
Once treasure is apportioned, you return to town. You'll arrive at town on the Evening of 19 July. You can respond to Baxtaw's call to arms, or you can organize into a new expedition of your own. I'm going to end this thread.

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
Technically... Clarabelle would get a half chair, but I'm happy to not press that issue.
Marullus, were the shield or amulet magical?
For his share, Clay is most interested in:
Dagger - 1.5 gp
Backpack - 1
Bedroll - .05
Mapcase, Leather - .5
7 Torches - .15
10 Large Sacks - 1
Spade - 1
Wineskin - .5
Saddlebags - .05
10 Days of Mule Feed - .025
Mule - 15
Rounding up, that is ~24.6 gp (for easier math), leaving Clay with approx 130 gp share. So, if Lug is agreeable, he'll take the medium green emerald and 30 gp.
He isn't interested in the holy symbol. I have a feeling that, with his training, Craig is worth more than 15 gp - and considering Clay would leave him to be a farm animal at Beith's Watch, it seems silly to take him... Does Lug want a trained mule?

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
Marullus told me in my private forum that the amulet with Moradin's holy symbol on it is magical. He didn't say how, though, except that it's imbued by Rhybek.

Clay lost Asala. He doesn't want the mule?

That sounds good to me.

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
I guess I was figuring things out to maximize what Lug got and didn't really count her because it felt selfish for me.
Let's go back to the drawing boards. I was going to give her the dagger, for sure. What else would she want, Marullus?
I was taking all of Rhybek's kit so I can offer it to a hireling at some point, since we need to provide that stuff.

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
We'll see if Lug's ownership of those items survives his visit to the dwarves.
Lug could use a little cash, but feel free to cut his cash share short.

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
She would accept one of the axe, amulet, or mule as "key items."
Yes, Clay derives some benefit from gear she gets but that is true of all hirelings retained. The main thing is the cash they get, which is wholly theirs (and that they accept objects d'art at whole value, but that isn't really a factor here.)

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
If she'll accept the mule, that'll let Lug still take Rhybek's stuff to the dwarves.

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
Is Lug willing to let her have a magical item and the mule? Clay will give her some coin, too.
Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
Okay, reparse as desired. She gets the mule, saddle bags, sacks, and feed for sure.
If Clay doesn't want the mule along on an expedition, she will return it to her farm.

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
So, what's the split on other stuff?
Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
I forgot to show the actual coin in his coin-pouch (an almost full small sack, actually):
54gp, 56sp, 69cp
You guys can keep the gems and the items divvied as you've agreed. Then just give that extra coin and the mule to Clarabelle. Good?

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
Lug also has Rhybek's axe. The 100' of rope also seems to have fallen off the list. Should Lug take that with the grappling hook?
Lug will sell the crossbow and quarrels for 8 gp, 7 sp, 5 cp.

Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
I'm good with that split. Lug can take the rope and hook. And if you don't mind, Clay will take the rations, which also fell of the list. Or Lug can have some.
Re: Expedition: Blackjack/Return to Kobold Tower - 16 July 2
Lug is set for rations. Clay can take them.
