Pip and the Magic Hammer

Taric: Shiny, shiny, shiny...
Hal: We should do this in a fair and sensible way
Noa: What is that stuff anyway
Taric: Shiny, shiny...
Hal: Don't know, it looks gold but it's very pale. Pip what are you doing?!
Pip: Who's Pip
Hal: Sorry I mean Sly, put that stuff back, it's to share amongst all of us.
Pip: Na I'll just put it in my sack and we will sort it out later, trust me, I'm a veteran of treasure hordes.
Raven: I think we should count it now, and split it fairly.
Noa: What is that stuff anyway
Hal: Taric, do you know what it is
Taric: Well its shiny... (Raven cuts in)
Raven: I saw Pip hide some away in his pockets
Pip: Who's P... (Hal cuts in)
Hal: Look will you people act sensibly for once in my life! I've been appointed party treasurer as I remember, so ill put it in my backpack and we will split it later
Raven: I say we split it now
Hal: Look we don't have time
Taric: Shiny...
Raven: We have plenty of time.
Noa: I'm with Raven
Raven: Who the hell says you get any anyway Noa
Noa: O come on, I fought as hard as anybody
Hal: Taric what is this stuff, is it gold
Taric: Electrum
Hal Raven together: oh
Noa: is that good
Taric: it's not bad
Raven: Where's Pip
(everybody rushes to the door in time to see Pip strolling down the corridor with a sack full of electrum, suddenly, a large ghostly form materialises ahead of Pip)
Noa: What the fu... (Raven cuts in)
Raven: It looks like a huge gleaming corporeal war hammer of some sort
Taric: Its sort of shiny
(whack, Pip falls to the ground and electrum spills from the sack and various pockets)
Hal: Did you see that! It knocked Pip clean out.
Noa: (Noa quickly examines Pip) he has a nasty bump on his head but will be ok
Taric: There, at the end of the corridor, it looked like another ogre! It ran through the doorway.
