Loot Thread:

[Anastasia]

Antenora buys the choker and has it melted down(Borrowing Seira for her breath if need be) and reforges it into a cruder but non-infernal choker.  52065 GP left. She'll improve her breastplate to +5. 36065 GP. She adds Mighty Smiting to her spear. 10,065 GP. Antenora will contribute 3,000 to Alicia's magical hideout, 3,000 to Marie, and 4,065 to the Temple of Mystra. She's broke again.

Since Marie doesn't want the 3k, Antenora gives it to Alicia for household expenses. This'll come up sooner or later for sure.

Finally paying the 10k to build Lagann's metal body. Would be helpful if you answered this before I went crazy with purchases, though!

Say 15k total all said.

[Anastasia]

[Corwin]

Lagann will have to wait, then.

Gerelethen's lair:

Heavy Steel Shield+4: 16,000 GP.
Mithral Breastplate+4, nimbleness:  29,000 GP.
Ring of Protection+5:  50,000 GP.
Dusty-Rose Ioun Necklace: This necklace formed of ioun stones grants the wearer supernatural insight ot the battle field, resulting in a +4 insight bonus to armor class.  40,000 GP.
Hunter's Claw: This functions as an amulet of mighty fists+2. 24,000 GP.
A drop of mercury from the creation pools of Mechanus: 200 GP.
The first letter of a lie so powerful that it a Yugoloth ever speaks it, they will become a cosmic being ruling over Yugoloths: 1,355 GP.
A polished wooden top, of what looks to be some sort of elven make: 40 GP.
A set of marbles, with each marble having the design of an outer plane inside as a pattern: 4,300 GP.
Copper coins: 83 GP.
Silver coins: 3,29 GP.
Gold coins: 1,600 GP.
Exotic coins: 9,300 GP.
Box of soul gems: Special. These contained trapped souls within. They are valid currency in the lower plains but they're also profoundly evil, tormenting the souls within. They're of Baatorian make, you can tell that much.
Heroes vs the Dragon: You guys know what this is. A signature on it reads 'Kel'. 14,000 GP.
The Garden: This painting serves as a constant Mage's Magnificent Mansion spell.  Within lies a restful place. Water can be had from the fountain and fruits from the various flowers provide tasty, nutritious food. However, it does lack the unseen servants function of Mage's Magnificent Mansion. Of note, if you look very carefully at one corner, there is a signature to the painting: Morwel. 150,000 GP.
The Iron Duke: This is a portrait of Dispater, Lord of the Second. While not magical, it is a stunning likeness of him by all accounts and a superb painting. It is said to be the last work of Baciar, a traveling painter of antiquity. 20,000 GP.
Creation: This is said to be an image of the creation of the Prime. The truth of the matter is not verified, but the artist's signature is simply 'He-who-sees-all.' 18,000 GP.
Joining  Tower: This portrait was produced long ago by a heretical sect. They claimed that Shar and Selune were the same Goddess, each an aspect of the greater whole. In time, they came to claim that all was one and one was all, merely different aspects of one greater being. The cult died out soon after, but this portrait is a relic of that time. 19,000 GP.
Untitled: This painting is of Far Realm madness. It has no value to any of sanity, save as a disgusting image of non-sanity and non-linear life. To a suitable mind, it may fetch up to 30,000 GP. One would need to make an effort to find someone who would appreciate it.
A Devil's work is never done: This image of ten bodies is said to be a devil's portrait of a perfect sacrifice to Zariel, former Lord of the First. 10,000 GP to the right market, mostly curiosity collectors who don't mind the blasphemy of it. It's value is way down since Zariel isn't in charge of Avernus any more.
Fancy of Music: This baton can be waved to create any music the user can imagine. A DC 10 charisma check is required to use it. 14,000 GP.
Mithral ring: 1,000 GP.
Scroll: Another is written in perfecty precise words, "Speak this before the Razor Throne: Adalani zom prefia - I give my life - Maian alio - To open the secret." ? GP.
Scroll: A third is written in ink the color of rust, "Amal, Perith will come with the moonlight. Do not fear him. Look into his face and you shall find the power of madness, brother." ? GP.
Map: A fourth is a map - to what looks to a valley, with an X in the center. ? GP, looks like a treasure map.
Misc jewelry and metal: 21,000 GP in total.
Huge pile of coins: 120,000 GP.

The whore illusion is maintained in the room. It could be replicated with enough money if one cared to study and learn it, but it's not mobile.

The crystal can be moved if one cares to, though it's far too heavy for normal teleportation to move.

[Ebiris]

Total is 561,207. Split four ways between Alicia, Seira, Anty, and Eudard that works out to 140,301gp each.

Alicia wants the Garden and will pay 9,699gp of her own money to get it.

[Anastasia]

Antenora'll go halves with you on the Garden if you like, Alicia.

[Corwin]

The marbles and the silver/copper/gold/exotic coins interest me. So does the musical baton, and the painting of me. The Garden is clearly in high demand, so I won't make any attempts at it.

re: souls, are all of them evil? Also, is breaking the gem the only way to free a soul from it?

re: crystal, what's the approximate weight? Teleportation with max load and proper preparation could handle a lot.  >_>

I'd like to keep all the scrolls and the map for now, and if they lead to more wealth, it will be shared at that time.

[Anastasia]

re: souls, are all of them evil? Also, is breaking the gem the only way to free a soul from it?

They all scan as evil. Yes, basically. It may be possible to communicate with one in them - Alicia pursued this slightly about Gerelethen.  It takes specialized magic.

re: crystal, what's the approximate weight? Teleportation with max load and proper preparation could handle a lot.  >_>

About 14 tons. It's a twenty foot long and huge-wide dense magic crystal.

[Corwin]

Let's keep the magical gems in the vault or something. I really want to consult with an expert on whether it is preferable to just releasing them to empower the lower planes.

[Anastasia]

What are you guys going to do about the Far Realm painting? That's purely theoretical money if you can find someone who's interested.

[Ebiris]

I'll go ask Mial in Brightwater if she knows anyone who'd be interested in such creepy art and has the funds to pay for it.

We'll hit that IC tomorrow or Sunday, then.

[Corwin]

Interest in sorting through the library.

Alicia and Anty go halfers on the Garden for 75k each. Alicia also buys the Iron Duke, Joining Tower, Creation, and Devil's Work for a further 67k.

Alicia has 5,962gp and Iron Duke, Joining Tower, Creation, and Devil's Work, as well as half a share in the Garden.

Anty has 72,926gp and half a share in the Garden.

Seira has 115,626gp (some made up of exotic coins), a painting of the Crimson Guard, some marbles, and musical baton.
