I don't know... It seems a bit much at the moment. We don't have much money from our winnings.

I'm sorry sir but that's just more than we can afford right now. Do you by chance have any healing belts?

"Hmm, I was hoping for a better rate since we were shopping in bulk. Any chance of that?"



"At any rate, do you have any other long spears to show us? Pehaps higher quality than your standard model but not as pricey as the last model you showed us. Which I must admit, was a very good deal. It shames me I cannot buy it right now."

"Also, what scrolls do you have on sale? Given our circumstances I don't know how likely we would be to buy one, but you do have good deals so it doesn't hurt to look"

He is willing to lower the prices. I'm just giving the base value of the items. As for Longspears and Scrolls... I have plenty of spears but, not very many Scrolls... meaning they might cost a bit more than usual. he grabs a normal Make Longspear out and all of the Scrolls he has (between 10 and 20). Spear is 302gp, Scrolls depend on what you want...

he was the one to say scrolls were on sale. I was just curious which ones...

I have an interesting proposition for you. You sell your goods to us for 75% of their actual price, and take that 15% to bet against us. If we succeed, we can pay you back the money we owe and the money you lost. If we lose, you get your merchandise back and an extra 15% of its value. Wadda ya say.

Just because they're on sale doesn't mean that they can't cost more than usual...

Nonetheless, there are Scrolls of Enlarge Person, Cure Minor, Inflict Minor, and various other 3rd lvl or lower spells.

He laughs.... [BI saw your last fight... those Gnolls hardly stood a chance... it seems much more reasonable to bet ON you than AGAINST you. [/b]

"Well we are not allowed to bet on ourselves... And the odds tend to favor against us. I believe the gnolls were 25 to 1 against us. How about we hand some money over to you for our next fight, you bet it all on us, we split the winnings and you sell us a few items next time at cost rather than retail? That sounds pretty fair."

"Might I suggest that he place bets on our group for us, splitting the profits, and he give us store credit equal to a portion of the gear he has added to inventory due to our killing of others in the arena. Between the bets he should easily be able to offset the costs of giving us store credit, and stacking the odds slightly in our favour while betting on us will give even more cash to him."

After a long meditation, John, will see what he can find out about the next 'opponent'. Simply knowing its race is of little concern, knowing weaknesses and what things it might possess will help in the fight.

You wander about until a jet of fire comes out of the window of a door. Are you going to look in to see what it was?

At first all you see is a single reptilian head... but, once you are looking directly in the window, you can see 6 heads all attached to long necks that connect to one body... the creature then sees you... and shoots a burst of flames from all of its mouths directly at you... you just barely make it out of the way in time... Ah... checking in on your next fight, are you? says an Orc.

I am the Monster handler... I can tell you that, that there is a Pyrohydra... they are vulnerable to cold, in fact the only way to stop the thing from regrowing its heads is to use cold on the stumps.

I have a couple Scrolls of Lesser Orb of Cold... although, that Spear I showed you is probably your best bet if you want a consistent amount of cold at your disposal.

Don't be so hasty to focus on long term cash. A few cheaper things that have a long term use would still be a good idea. I could use a well made buckler, and I'm sure we could get a lot of use out of an amber amulet of vermin, and a set of arcanist's gloves might be useful for you.
