Tower search and loot!

OOC - Darius, make another search check in #mk and post the results. 1d20.

Saul frowns as he glances over the spellbook. It is worth keeping for now, he decides, but he reminds himself to guard his mind well, and make sure he knows what he studies from it- being done in by his own mad hubris isn't an end he'd relish.

Stowing the grim-faced book in his bag, Saul heads back down to the first floor, checking out inside the fireplace, and inside the bed pillow.

A small fragment of luck is in Darius's corner. As he pokes around, a chance glint of light calls his attention to something atop a dusty bookshelf. With a bit of reaching it can be brought down! A dagger is here - fine and oiled steel, clearly made to last. Further, the pommel has a tiny stone embedded, a bit of darkstone.

This is probably worth some money, one can muse, as he goes back to looking around. As he does, he notes a dim, gray pouch strapped to the side of a chair. Inside are three sets of six coins, banded together with cloth ties. 1 Pence, 1 Silver, 1 Griffon, 1 Hop, 1 Silver and 1 Copper.  Three bands of coins just like this, three sticks of money.

OOC - That's 6 CP, 6 SP, 3 GP and 3 PP total.

Heading downstairs, Saul finds Darius hefting a small load of coins from a cache! Such events happen as he searches the fireplace - a sooty and foul smelling affair, and it takes a few minutes for Saul to figure out the trick to it. A fake brick is in the back, easy to pull out and reveal a cubby hole. It's darkish depths hold a cold, metallic tube. About two feet long, it's top half comes off to reveal an old, carefully rolled up sheet of parchment inside.

Saul nods to himself, stowing away the tube, and gives Darius a quick nod, before checking out inside the pillowcase(s).

RIP!

The sound of old cloth being rent is heard as Saul returns to his labor! Inside the pillowcase are 18 identical golden coins, glittering and shining as they fall to the bed!

OOC - Saul, make a save vs spell and post the result.

Coooooin. Shiny coin. Beautiful coin. So Saul's vision is enraptured by one coin in a set, body still as he stares for long, painfully long seconds! It's not until a bit of drool splashes down from his chin to his hand that he recovers, tearing away his gaze from one perfect golden token in the set. You feel slightly dazed, but by Waukeen...what a coin!

[Carthrat]

Saul shakes his head as he pulls his gaze from the coin- but he puts it in a seperate pouch to the rest when he stashes away the money.

Still, he can't resist playing with it, as he walks outside, just fingering it and rolling it up and down his fingers a little. Pulling his mind away from it for a moment, he gets to the hard work of looking over his new scrolls, and new book.
