Does anyone want the eversmoking bottle? It's a fairly useful item. You can pawn it if you have the a bit of money to make up the difference to the party. (I haven't calculated, but probably about 30gp cash will do it.) Then you can buy it out of hock if you get the 333 in the next RL year. Geghard isn't interested.

Thanks for the great adventure, Mindsiege!

i don't really think its fair for one person to get it. this isn't like a regular game where the group sticks together and it would benefit the group.

I think I wasn't clear. The options as I see them are:
1) Sell it for 299.7 and split that.
2) Someone pawns it for 266.4, and adds their 33.3 in cash to make up the difference. The party splits that total 299.7 as if the item had been sold. (The person pawning it still gets their share back, as if it had been sold.) The person pawning it then has the right to buy it back later if they make the 333. It's a risk for the person pawning it.

@secretID:
I think we already adjusted the rules for that, no? I think initially the item can be sold at full price and pawned at 90%.

Aurora has no interest in the bottle.

Oof. Maybe? I know that we discovered that I had wrongly been pawning at 90%. The published rules still say 80% I think that may have been one of the discussions lost when we petered out on the overall topic.

I'm fairly sure that there was a consensus. If we forgot to update the rules in the actual shopping thread, I think now is a good moment.

Happy thanksgiving everyone

[Mindsiege]

Oh yes, Happy Thanksgiving! You're allowed to wish that when you're from somewhere else too, right?

[Corwin]

Absolutely! The whole world is invited to eat too much Happy Thanksgiving!

Let me know if Oguun and Geghard were still meaning to talk to Almavalesh. If not there will be one more update that will need player replies, and after that a final one to end the scene. Then I would like to settle anything further that your characters want to immediately do and finally what's happening during downtime.

For those who are new to it, after each adventure, it is assumed that characters transition through a period of at least 2 months of downtime in which they train themselves with new skills and abilities before they find their next quest. I'll explain a bit more about that when the adventure is officially done, but either way I will start recruitment in the Inn on your Shield as soon as we've got your downtime periods narratively settled. Technically there are no planned breaks on my end, because if nothing unexpected happens I know how the next episode is going to open. That said, plans are made to be overthrown, but that's only on the narrative side of things. I'll definitely progress with launching the next adventure as soon as we've got everything squared away in this one.

I'm also still planning to give everybody a brief response to their feedback, so if there was anything you still wanted to get in, I'll probably write that response after/across the weekend.

after several years on this site, this will be the first adventure i actually completed
