Hmmm, Verhaden, Mads isn't called "the Fair" for nothing.
Why have Victor do the negotiating when Mads is simply oozing charisma?
Anwyn's charisma isn't half bad either (except she is still incognito for now).

I still haven't decided whether "Fair" is an honest title or a pejorative. Maybe he's "the Fair" because he makes such lopsided, advantageous dealings for himself. Or charges "Fare" for favors--a mercenary after Angel Eyes' own heart.
Mads also has descent int--he'd rather not be at the forefront of something that could be... risky. Especially in a tavern with so many unknowns.

So...as the deal was done, did Anwyn notice the big, burly security guards reacting? Or are those the men who leave with him? Do they ALL leave?
What does Lumbard do once he leaves the booth? Does he leave the Jolly Noose? Go to a room upstairs? Go to another table?
Did she see anyone else watching?

OOC: I'm assuming we have enough money to cover the 45 silver? Ulric can throw in 20-30 if need be, assuming it is an investment that will be repaid. Since Ulric did the negotiating, and most of the party are near-broke (except perhaps Victor and Eris), I will assume (for now) that Ulric has purchased the map from his own purse. This leaves him with 5 silver and 12 copper. If others are willing to contribute they should repay Ulric. Otherwise, Ulric could reasonably expect first pick of any loot won... |

Erm . . . I think you subtracted the map price from Ulric's starting money, not his current money (shown in the "Cast" thread). Victor suggests that he go in for 25 sp and Ulric go in for 20 sp, and they can even up later if for some reason they don't find a horde of treasure that makes 5 sp seem too petty to worry about. The rest of the group has spent equivalent sums on useful crap like torches and crowbars and shovels, so that can be their contribution.

Erm . . . I think you subtracted the map price from Ulric's starting money, not his current money (shown in the "Cast" thread). I double-checked the PC creation thread and found that Ulric (very fortunately!) began play with 14 gp, 15 sp and 26 cp. After acquiring his staring gear he had 6 gp, 14 silver, and change. Victor suggests that he go in for 25 sp and Ulric go in for 20 sp, and they can even up later if for some reason they don't find a horde of treasure that makes 5 sp seem too petty to worry about. Very well. Ulric has also agreed to pay 20 silver: OOC: Ulric pays 20 silver for the map. So the final accounting for the purchase of map is that Victor has paid 25 silver, and Ulric has paid 20 silver. |

With Victor generously paying for the Lion's share of the map, he has 4 sp and 5 cp remaining. Ulric's coin purse contains 4 gp, 16 sp and 12 cp.

That was before I finished purchasing equipment (Ulric is a well-armed magic user). Before buying the map he had 2 gold, 12 silver, and 12 copper. That leaves him with 4 silver and 12 copper after the map purchase. |

Thanks for the extra info and for your honesty Danhem. I will update my spreadsheet too.

Note: Victor now has a coat of arms in his character sheet post in "The Cast", courtesy of Photoshop and a heraldic clip art web site. I can probably whip up a couple more if anyone has any requests.

Well, it looks like Olaf may not be our guy for outdoorsmanship after all. Kind of weird since eris came up with the idea, but his character doesn't have the Wisdom score to execute. Maybe we need a system where no matter who has the idea, the best qualified character carries it out.

The time it took to settle on a good camp site was down to Olaf's low wisdom. The appearance of the other guys, however, was entirely attributable to my rolling a 1 on a d6 for an encounter check. The good news is, due to only to Anwyn's good vision in dim light, you were not taken by surprise  |

Shouldn't Ulric's spell have put four of the attackers to sleep? 2d6 + caster level?
The Baleful Somnolence of Morpheus : 2d6 + caster level HD worth of creatures fall into a magical slumber. Mindless monsters, those with more HD than the caster has levels, and undead are not affected.

The time it took to settle on a good camp site was down to Olaf's low wisdom. Well, I said I would if the party agreed, maybe the party shouldn't agree so fast.  Olaf is smart, but not wise, so he'll have lots of ideas, lots of them will be good ideas, but some will be not so good. He's probably not the best one to decide which is which, though, as he'll probably think his bad ideas are just as good as his bad ones. It might be best if Olaf suggests, but someone with higher wisdom is the one who officially implements those suggestions. |

Let's just roleplay and let the dice fall where they may. |

Anybody taking odds on how many of us will be rolling new characters before the weekend is out? |

Hmm... a very near thing indeed. If Ulric is going to "negotiate" like that in future, he should roll higher |

Hmm... a very near thing indeed. The weekend isn't over yet. First level PC's are very fragile at all times and several of us are teetering on the edge of breaking already. As should Olaf when it comes to hitting his opponent. |
