We return to Sebury, all out of supplies.

Supplies for the road are in short supply in Sebury so the price is rather high (5 silver per person a day).

The costs for opening a silk shop in Sebury are 10 gold per month for renting the shop, 10 gold per month for hiring a shopkeeper, plus our own living expensives that will cost at the very least 18 gold per month at the cheapest inn in town, we think we could sell silk at 4-5 gold per yard around here. Hard to tell how fast we would sell our silk here though.

We have 90 gold and 231 yards of silk.

I can't believe none of them changed.

Find out if there's anywhere nearby that will buy silk for the same/similar prices we get in Valonde. Perhaps traveling a bit farther away from the Elvish kingdom? If not look into mining adamantine.

>>3561176 Valonde is the local largest city and main trade hub, you won't find anywhere nearby where you can sell for the same price.


We decide to go after adamantine for Hirish.

"Well, where are we going to find adamantine Bailey?", says Selena.

"Adamantine is a fairly rare ore, it can be found in small pockets on various kinds of terrains. But I won't lie to you, our chance of finding a pocket of adamantine, even a small one, is pretty slim.", says Bailey.

We go talk to a local prospector and ask him about adamantine.

"You're looking for adamantine? You must be crazy! That's one of the rarest ores, if not the rarest! You might as well look for metal that falls from the sky, some say the whole supply of adamantine came from the sky, that's why it is only found in small pockets. I can come and help you for my usual rates but I warn you that my expertise won't change the fact that the chance of finding this ore is minimal. It might be months until you find anything, or even years, and once you find it it will likely be only a few pounds of the stuff. Go look for something more profitable like gold or silver, it will be more worth your while."

We have 48 gold

Hmm. Ok. Find out where nearby we can sell silk for the best price, Valonde excepted. Anywhere better than 4-5 gold locally?

Also I guess go to the merchants guild here, tell them we can't pay their bigass fee, and ask if there's an alternative way to get selling rights. Perhaps a 15-20% cut of our profits?

>>3561207
Kek

>>3561207 there's no table of prices for the various villages, we would have to actually travel places and ask, though it is unlikely that small places would pay very much

We give up on going after adamantine for Hirish.

We go to the merchants guild and tell them we can't pay their fee and ask if there's an alternative way to get selling rights, perhaps a 15-20% cut of our profits.

They tell us that to be allowed to sell in the city we must pay what we own the merchant's guild and we should have exercised some more forethought as when their emissary went to collect the fee we obviously had the money to pay for it.

Ooof. Guess they're willing to give up on our remaining product. I figured they'd take something over nothing.

Travel in the direction away from the elvish kingdom to the nearest city and sell there.

>>3561239
Would that be where we just left?

>>3561239
>Travel in the direction away from the elvish kingdom to the nearest city and sell there.

We only have enough money for 3 weeks worth of supplies, there are no cities within reach, only villages of varying sizes.

Then there's the issue that if we spend all the money on supplies for the travel we won't have enough to open a shop and pay our living expenses on whatever village we arrive at.

How do you suggest handling this issue?

>>3561250
Really? No cities for 3 weeks of travel on a road that connects a major city to the elven kingdom? This may be our worst bad luck yet.

Hmmmmmmm.

Any pixies or giant centipedes nearby? With the increase in travel supply costs, getting harpy feathers might not even be profitable anymore.

>>3561297

pixies can probably be found in the elvish kingdom
giant centipedes can probably be found in the mountains to the west or in the swamp to the south

>>3561315
I think the mountains to the west were a month away, so they're definitely no good.

Elvish kingdom I think was two weeks away? Maybe three? Remind me please.

How far away is the southern swamp?

>>3561324

The closest city of the elvish kingdom, Doloroth, can be reached in 2 weeks.

The southern swamp is close to the village of Beeton, about 3 weeks away.

One of the two giants we slayed was carrying a large sack with him. In his sack we found:

A half empty cask of ale
One alive sheep
A large iron cooking pot
A giant sized waterskin

Will we loot the giant's stuff?

We then resume our trip, rolling to see if we find anything else on our way to Doloroth

>>3562742

We arrive at the elvish town of Doloroth!

We go to a tavern called the Broken Shield and Selena goes about with Dandala looking for information.

"Looks like the wizard Ethon has built another golem. He now has two medium sized golems, one stone golem and one iron golem. The creatures are still unproven in battle though, but he flaunts them as the ultimate fighting creatures and protectors of Doloroth. He must have sank thousands of gold coins worth of materials in the construction of each golem."

"Seems like Galemmir has acquired some phoenix feathers for he has crafted a number of wands of firebolt and seems pretty satisfied with himself. He fears that the town might be attacked by something immune to fire though so now apparently he's busily crafting wands of magic missile. Coincidentally or not he's after some pixie dust for his wands, he's offering 150 gold per vial. "

"We might find some escort work taking caravans from here back towards Valonde for about 100 gold for the couple weeks it would take us to get there, most merchants bet they can just outrun most threats on the way to Valonde but some, specially those hauling large amounts of precious stuff, are willing to pay for the added protection. They would also provide us with supplies while we're escorting them."

"We talked to some local druids asking where we could find some pixies and they told us there's a sacred glade a couple weeks travel away from here to the east where the pixies like to gather together to dance. They can fly and become invisible at will, even when attacking people, so nabbing them to harvest the dust might be difficult."

"We only have 22 gold and we kinda need more supplies if we are to travel anywhere. Luckily supplies around here are cheaper, at about 2 silver per person a day, but still we would only be able to afford about a couple weeks at most with our current funds."

> Buy a couple weeks of supplies (17 gold)
> Go after pixies

>>3562810
What's the temperament of pixies? Playful, mean, murderous? Can we negotiate for the dust? What are their combat capabilities?

If we butcher and eat the sheep we looted how long will it last us? Can we forage for food since there isn't a zombie plague here? Also what would our silk sell for out of curiosity?

>>3562864
Could be all of those... there are many kinds of pixies.

>>3562879
That's why I'm asking. The locals who live near them should know

>>3562864
https://youtu.be/EhO5IOjT5JE
You can look up info for a general understanding. I look up the creatures so that I can know some what to expect... its only logical.

>>3562900
No guarantee that OP didn't put his own unique spin on it though.

>>3562864 the sheep would last you three days or so. none of you are trained foragers so it would be a difficult test to forage for food day by day, it would take at least eight hours per day foraging to get food for one day. if you fail the test you might accidentally eat something poisonous and get sick.

We ask around the locals what they know about the pixies, about their temperament, whether they are playful, mean, murderous, whether we could negotiate for the dust and their combat capabilities. We find a druid who seems knowledgeable about the pixies.

"Well, it is a mixed bag really. There are multiple small clans of pixies that group themselves by their general interests, one clan might spend a lot of time playing pranks on local animals, another might patrol their territory carrying their tiny bows shooting anything that comes too close, another might gather and prepare food for their friends. They meet at the sacred glade once every few days to dance and talk endlessly about whatever they have done and seen in the prior days. They have a queen who is a powerful spellcaster who often attends those dance parties. I reckon you're after their dust eh? Well, they don't take too kindly people wanting to grab them and shake them off to gather their dust. Resistance might range from them just flying away to you all being driven away from their territory under heavy arrow fire or even some magical spells if their queen is around. It is not too often that people succeed at gathering pixie dust, but the casualties are not very high. Just make sure you don't kill any pixies and they'll probably let you live - dead pixies don't produce any dust anyway, you'd wanna just knock them unconscious at most. They're rather fragile so don't go around casting fireballs on them and murdering scores of pixies unless you want to incur their collective wrath."

Our silk would fetch maybe 1 gold per yard around here.

The merchants comply and we manage to eventually kill off all the zombies until they stop getting back up. The merchants compliment us for our cleverness and we continue on our trip towards Valonde.

We arrive at Valonde and the merchants pay us the 100 gold they promised us for the escort work.

We now have 122 gold.

The nearest village is Wastead, about a week away, it has less than two thousand inhabitants though, might not be the best place to sell silk.

The nearest village with a decent population is Sebury with over four thousand inhabitants, about two weeks away.

The nearest real city is about four weeks away travelling south, the capital of Faleroth, a walled city with tens of thousands of inhabittants called Huxford. We don't know much about the place just that it has a large standing army and houses the royal family of Faleroth.

Fixing a cursed item the way you two are imagining would imply changing the properties of an already existing magical item, the sort of spell capable of doing that is a miracle or a wish, it would cost you thousands of gold to have it cast for you if you found anyone willing and capable of casting it at all.

Akon says she can cast the spell for us, she asks for 300 gold for it. After hearing the story on how Bailey got cursed she warns us that the cursed item is attuned to Bailey and once she lifts the curse by casting Remove Curse on her it will attune to the next person that touches it, cursing that person. We might wanna store the cursed item somewhere safe before she lifts the curse, or even get it identified as nobody will agree to touch it to identify it after the curse is lifted from it. She tells us to get our preparations done and come back the following day as she needs to prepare the spell.

>It causes the critical hit range of attacks against you to increase by 3 (usually it is 20 so it will be 17-20 in most cases).

>When you suffer a critical hit, it spawns a random demon, usually a Quasit, with a small chance of spawning something bigger like a Shadow Demon or a Barlgura. The demon is not under your control. It usually disappear after a minute, but there's a small chance that it will stay in the material plane for a year and a day.

>If you're attuned to the full plate but don't wear it you suffer a debilitating curse that paralyzes you in combat about 70% of the time.

We pay Akon 20 gold for identifying the item for us. We now have 543 gold.

>Store the armor somewhere safe

Just have Bailey stuff it in a cheap sack.

Summoning demons isn't what we're about. If modifying the item is so hard, would it be easier to just disenchant it so it's nonmagical? Would mages at the institute be willing to buy it, and if so at what price? How hard would it be to destroy it?

>>3564477
Hey other anon, would u be will to make compromises? Because having both of us play tug of war with the plot is going to get us nowhere. For the first compromise we can go after the druid when we are done here, then come back and use invisibility to patrol the stress. What do you say? Unless there is something else you would like to do. But I think we should try to work together.

>>3564728
Sure. Only problem I have with patrolling is there's no money in it and our finances aren't in a good state. I'd like a buffer of 1000 gold before we do that.

>>3564748
Ok, I like your plan.

>>3563789
DM what is the cost of healing potions?

We ask Akon about whether it would be feasible to disenchant the plate mail so it's non magical.

Akon patiently explains to us that the process of enchanting a magical item imbues the piece of equipment with powerful magical energies and that disenchanting the item would destroy it, leaving behind a tiny amount of magical residuum that could be useful for crafting new magical items.

She says that Saigon knows the spell for disenchanting magical items and could do it for us for a fee if we want the residuum for ourselves, he also might be interested in buying the cursed armor to destroy it and get the precious residuum for his own magical item recipes.

If the cursed item is destroyed the curse is lifted, although we shouldn't assume Saigon will destroy the item right away if we sell it to him, he might store it for months or even years until he needs the residuum for making a new item.

What do we want to do?
> Pay Akon to Remove Curse from Bailey

> Seek Saigon and ask him if he wants to buy the demon armor

>>3564905
Anon we might be able to use the residuum. I could make our items more powerful.

>>3564942
Alright, I feel like he'll charge a ton but it doesn't hurt to check.

>>3564954
I agree, we should find how much he is charging.

>>3564878
>>3564905

We go seek Saigon. Between his duties as council member and head of the institute for arcane research he's a very busy man. We only manage to get a minute of his attention late at night before he's going out to dine at a restaurant with some local representatives.

"Mister Saigon, we would like you to disenchant a cursed armor for us!", says Selena.

"Disenchanting a cursed armor? My dear, that would take four whole hours! I can't fit it in my schedule. Maybe in a month I could find the time to do it. I would have to charge you 600 gold for the inconvenience. I reckon you want the residuum then?"

"For how much would you be willing to buy the cursed armor?"

"Well, I could use the residuum myself but nowadays who has time to craft magical items. Still, I would buy it from you for 200 gold if you're really despaired to part with it. I might find the time to craft some magic items next year, some residuum would come handy."

"What if we let you keep all the residuum if you just destroy the cursed armor for us?"

"Well, that's one deal I could take! My schedule is still tight, you'd still have to wait about a month until I have time for it, but I could do it for you and keep the residuum."

Spending a month in the local inns would cost us at least 36 gold.

We currently have 543 gold.

What do we want to do?
> Sell something that we have to get 600 gold and have Saigon disenchant the armor so we can keep the residuum for ourselves (what do you wanna sell? diamond (50 gold), holy water (10 gold each, we have 13), silk (we're blacklisted by the merchant's guild but some merchants would still buy from us if the price is low enough, 1-3 gold per yard, we have 99), alchemist's fire (10 gold each, we have 3), horses (30 gold each, we have 4), wagons (15 gold each, we have 2)) (if we pick this option we need to get at least 636 gold because we need to pay for a month of living expenses)

>Have Saigon disenchant the armor and keep the residuum.

Don't just wait around for a month though. Travel back to the mountains for all those ingredients, or Serbury for a head start on finding the druid.

>>3565013

Going to the mountains takes a month.
Going back and forth to Sebury also takes a month.

In either case you'd probably miss your appointment and would have to reschedule it, and who knows when would Saigon have time again.

>>3565013
I agree we should keep residuum. But our mage is still down we could wait a month and have her at full power and reliable. We could sell silk in the mean time. Also we only have a little over 600.

>>3565019
>Have Saigon disenchant the armor and keep the residuum.

Maybe the wording on this option wasn't clear, this one is for Saigon disenchanting the armor and keeping the residuum for himself

>>3565018
We can't leave it with Saigon now and let him get around to it when he's free in a month?

>>3565019
I don't think keeping residuum is worth it at that price. Especially since we'd be losing money by selling silk. We know in a big city it can sell for 7-12. Why in the world would we sell it for 2 now? Missing out on 500-1000 gold.

>>3565026
It made sense to me. I'm asking if we can't hand the armor over to Saigon right now and get on with our lives instead of waiting around for a month doing nothing. If we travel to the mountains in that time Bailey will be cured right when we arrive.

>>3565029
Ok, what im look at is we can make more money. But we dont have any residuum. To me money is more expendable then residuum. I see your point on lossing out on 500-1000.

>>3565035
I would agree to sell the cursed armor to Saigon for 100 gold, if he disenchants immediately.

>>3565038
I think we should talk to Bailey about what she or other mages can do with residuum. We don't know enough about it to assign a value to it. It helps when crafting magic items, but clearly isn't essential because Bailey has made potions without it. Ask if the amount we'd get from this armor is worth 600 gold.

>>3565043
Very unlikely, he's got no free time for a month. Plus it's not like we need it to be immediate. Our next objective is weeks of travel away.

>>3565052
I think said it could take him months or yrs to need it. Baileu could stay curses that whole time. Offering a discout gives him incentive to removing it sooner.

>>3565068
Even if we sell it to him for free with the condition that he disenchants asap he wouldn't have time to do it for a month though

>>3565102
Ok.

Well, what do you guys want to do?

So far the only vote has been for
>>3565013
>Have Saigon disenchant the armor and keep the residuum

with the addendum of not waiting around for it, just dumping the armor with Saigon and hitting the road, either to the mountains or to Sebury


Is that what you all wanna do?

>>3565119
>Have Saigon disenchant the armor and keep the residuum
I want a confermation that is removed. So wait the month

>>3565123
I'll back for the sake of compromise

>>3565123
>>3565138

We spend a month in the local inns waiting for the day Saigon will cast the spell to disenchant the cursed armor.

We now have 507 gold.

The day finally comes, we're admitted to Saigon's laboratory. Bailey carries the cursed armor there. Saigon then begins to perform the ritual and spends about four hours chanting. At some point during the chanting the plate mail begins to glow white hot and once he's done it crumbles into a tiny amount of fine silvery dust - the residuum. Saigon carefully collects all the residuum into a small vial.

"About a thousand gold worth of residuum!", Saigon says, satisfied with himself. "Your friend should be free from the curse now that the cursed item is destroyed."

What do we want to do next?
> Travel somewhere (where?)
> Buy supplies (about 13 gold per week)
> Enter the fountain portal to slay monsters
> Patrol the streets of the poorer districts looking for clues on the disappearances (how many weeks)
> Go after some component from Alion's list (which one)
> Visit the institute for arcane research looking for fetch quests
> Travel to Longdale to look for the second gem
> Write in

>>3565169
Ok that's kinda annoying.

>Travel to Serbury to apprehend the mad druid

>Have Bailey explain magic item crafting and residuum

>>3565169
What would you like to do anon?

>>3565178
+1

>>3565178
>>3565179
>>3565183

We ask Bailey to explain magic item crafting and residuum.

"Well, when a magic item is destroyed by a disenchant spell about a fifth of its enchanting cost can be recovered in the form of residuum. Residuum can be used in place of rare components when you are enchanting a magic item. You don't use residuum in potions and scrolls, you use it for enchanting things - wands, weapons, armor, this sort of stuff.

A cheap wand with 50 charges of a cantrip could be created for as little as 200-300 gold if we could find the components for it in the open market, its market price being about 350-400 gold or so if we can find a buyer. It would take me about four days to create a wand like that. More powerful wands are of course more expensive.

Enchanting a magical item can get much more expensive rather fast. A simple ring of protection +1 has a market price of about 2000 gold, if we could find the materials for it I could craft one for 1000-1500 gold. It would take me 20 days to craft it. A ring of protection +2 costs about 8000 gold. If we could find the material for it I could craft if for anything between 4000-6000 gold. It would take me 80 days to craft. More powerful magical items are even more obscenely expensive.

Some wizards make cursed items because imbuing a curse in the spell decreases the overall cost of the item. A +5 sword has a market price of a whooping 50,000 gold, but a cursed +5 sword that reduces your AC by 3 when you're wielding it would only cost 32,000 gold, still expensive but far more manageable. If you just add a few curses you can have a powerful item for cheap, with a few setbacks.

Oh, and having trained people helping you craft the items decrease the time it takes to craft it proportionately to the amount of people working on it. That's why most artificers have lots of apprentices - who is going to spend 500 days working on a +5 sword anyway?. The artificer himself still needs at the bare minimum to start the construction of the item and to give the finishing touch on the work so the spells will have his level as base and not the level of one of his apprentices."

We decide to travel to Sebury to apprehend the mad druid Herzoflix!

Sebury is two weeks away from Valonde.

We have 507 gold.

How much supplies are we going to buy?
