>>72927"we should head to the tavern."
>>72932"I will follow. Remember the agreement." Iron follows Dark Star.
>>72934>>72932Aren't we all still in the boat?
>>72932"You've been shot twice and stabbed, Shimmer has been shot, Brie has been shot, and Iron has been slashed, thrashed, and stabbed."
>>72934"Now what's that you've been carrying on your back?"
>>72932>finally gets a chance to join the party[Excited Fighter-Horse Noises]
>>72936Yes, but if he decides to travel to the tavern, it is good.
>>72937Iron looks away from Skies "I see your game. Fine, the chest should cover it."
>>72940"So you want to take 30% of all of the Gold and say that is your '200 bits'?"
>>72942"You know this guy has gold on him, right?"
>>72941"No, you need a doctor"
>>72938Shit I'll get to you
>>72942>>72943"Uh, thanks?" He catches it. "Well, I guess that is that." He turns to Skies. "I can share some of what is inside the chest if you want. Your terms are agreeable." He takes the 30% and stores it in his hide and passes the chest to Skies. "I guess an organization needs more of the gold than me."
>>72944She is not satisfied
"There are 6 of you and you claim 1/3?"
>>72943>>72944"Gold? you Guys found it?"
>>72946"Iron and Shimmer must have found it"
>>72946>>72945"Oh, sorry. I thought you wanted thr chest." He clearly is annoyed. "Shimmer did not take anything when we opened it, so he is out of the question. I do not know if Ash even needs it and Dark Star is supported by an entire organozation, let him use organization funds." Iron recollects. "Because I opened the chest to begin with, as well as the suitcases you wanted me to open it, I should take a bigger share."
>>72948"let me get this straight. You want an entire additional 10% share of the gold because you opened a couple suitcases and the chests? And while we're on the subject, did you bother to ask Ash if she had any use for it rather than just assuming? Did you bother to ask Dark Star how much he is getting from his organization?"
>>72949First, Iron turns to Ash. "Do you need some of this gold, Ash? I feel like you will not tell me unless I ask you directly."
>>72950"Why don't we open it first?"
>>72949>>72948"I havent gotten any money from them."
>>72952>I'm nearly died for freeSister Ash gives him a quizical expression at this statement.
>>72949>>72953>>72951Iron shakes his head. "It is not necessary. There are 10 pieces of gold." He makes some math. "Since you seem interested, we can go with 2 gold bars to you, 2 to Onyx, 2 to Dark Star, 2 to me and 2 to Skies. Not sure of Brie is here to even pick up the gold, so I could go for one more to me and one more for Ash."
>>72954*Replace Brie with "the bat"
>>72954"How about one brick to each participant in the battle including the Bat, and the remainder to your Benefactors who sent you on this mission, and who will want their taxes anyways"
>>72956"Before I agree, any estimation of the value of this gold?"
>>72957A 5 pound brick of gold is worth 250 gp at market price. Gold is a trade good, so it can be sold for it's market price.
To put that in perspective: one set of mundane, nonmagical banded mail.
>>72959Or at least that's what the books say.
Roll to Appraise.
>>72956>>72957>>72959"Fine. But I will hand out." He starts to hand out one piece of gold for each character present. He is left with 5 available gold pieces. "I shall safeguard the rest of the gold until everyone comes and retrieves it. You can tail me if you want to ensure your pieces."
>>72959A single set of full plate costs 1500 gp.
A +1 magic weapon costs a minimum of 1000 gp.
The total wealth level of a level 5 Player character starts at about 9000 gp (or 4,300, for an NPC).
>>72965That a lot more money than I thought we would start out with.
>>72966Calculating CR for this on its own will be difficult>>72968Don't worry, most of the characters are not starting out with anywhere near that kind of money
>>72968Magic items are expensive.
>>72969I mean, combining everything Silver has on him (equipment, weapons, armor, and Bits), he doesn't even have quite one thousand.
>>72970Apparently.
>>72970Also, healing potions and damage-reduction passing ammunition are essential.
Plus trail rations, but survival replaces those in the wilderness.
>>72972I basically started with 0
>>72974I pretended I had normal lvl 5 gold, but gave it all away to the orphanage.
>>72977Oh, sorry. Guess I wasn't paying attention,
>>72941Holds glass away from Dark Star.
>>72969"Well, I'm glad we are all debating on how much shiny stuff we are going to get and not what we do next. How has tonight changed our lives? Are we cleared of this by the government, or are we going to be on the run now?"
