Well Ernie has already discussed what happened after you all left. Good thing you did not try to stick around until we stopped talking about the session and OA things in general since it was about 1:30 AM when he finally left (otherwise I might have sent out a little summary last night...grin)
As Ernie indicated, Lord Moshi Isaka offered us 8 Talismans. I suggest that each of the 7 characters pick which one (of the Three they want: Bone Shield (Sanctuary Spell), Frightened Crane (Expeditous Retreat), and Paper Umbrella (Obscuring Mist) ) he or she wishes and they will be getting that as part of their division of treasure. I propose to also include Moshi Yuki in this portion of the division for she played a role in our successful defeat of the Bakemono scum in the warrens.
AS for the rest of the loot, most of it was in minor gems and some coins and bills. We also brought back the Leather Scale armor and half spears to sell. As the DM indicated the possesions of the Samurai and his wife were returned to them.
What we got amounts to the following:
-Small Leather Scale Armor +1 - Base AC3 (wiill fit Gorvak) max Dex +6, Armor
Check (-2 normally, but with masterwork armor this is lowered to -1, weight
20 lbs and it has a 15% spell failure chance.)
- Short Sword +1,+1 (I note that this is thhe weapon of choice of Gorvak)
- Potion: Cure Moderate Wounds (2d8+3)
- Potion: Delay Poison
- Potion: Invisibility
- 6 Long Arrows +1,+1 (will fit a Daiyku, noot a Yumi) (Zenako or Hatori)
- almost 1400 gold worth of assorted loot
Again if anyone if not gonna to be spending their money right away (once we divide up the loot) and want to take some of it in non coin forms, let me know.
What Zenako proposes, and she is keeping in mind previous divisions as well is the following:
Mighty Gorvak recieve a Talisman of his choice and the Enchanted Leather
Scale Armor +1 and the Enchanted Short Sword +1 and 50 gold.
Zenako recieve her choice of Talisman, the 6 magic long arrows and 100 Gold
Hatori recieve his choice of Talisman and 425 gold
Mulan recieve her choice of Talisman and 425 gold
Isaku recieve his choice of Talisman and Potion of Delay Poison and 125 Gold
Soshi receive her choice of Talisman and Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds and
125 Gold
and Noku recieve his choice of Talisman and Potion of Invisibility and 125 Gold.
The "value" of the arrows is almost exactly the same as the potions. The potions all list for 300 gold each. If anyone who I was suggesting receive a potion does not want it, it is likely that Mulan would buy it, however, since these potions are a little higher power than the simple cure light wound potions we have been stocking up on, they might be harder to find on short notice, especially in Marike. It is also possible that Hatori might swap coin for potion, but he must speak for himself.
More on the Talismans, anyone can activate them, no special skill is needed. The three types we are being offered all list for 50 gold each, nice but not extravagent. Activation is a non-provoking standard action.
Bone Shield (Sanctuary) - Anyone attacking the caster must make a Will save to do so, as I read it, this talisman would only last 1 round.
Frightened Crane (Expeditous Retreat) - Doubles movement speed for 10 rounds (also increases Jump)
Paper Umbrella (Obscuring Mist) - Creates a stationary mist around you which gives concealment bonues against missile attacks or long reach attacks as I read it!. Mist lasts for 10 rounds
Zenako intends to request an Frightened Crane Talisman. Zenako will be interested in what her comrades choose, but will not ask twice if you wish to keep it private.
If anyone has problems with the division (as characters or even players) voice your feelings.
Death to Bakemono!! We should perhaps plan on hunting down more of those raiding parties unless Lord Moshi Isaka comes up with something else to do. But please I ask our ancestors, lets keep it out in the open and not down into such horrific warrens again. But the fight must go where it must go.
Ernie I think you know that Zenako will be pointing towards Sohei levels for a while, and Mulan will be sticking with Ranger for at least a few levels.
