Lets be serious; if Leviathon had made -everything- public, it would have included a blow by blow description of how awesome you thought the music you had been listening to was.
Does anyone have a current tally of our money and/or loot? If not, I'm glad to volunteer to count stuff up and keep track of it. I just don't want to duplicate work already done.
Sorry folks, I didn't have enough time to move you forward to the next hex, but I didn't want to leave you hanging. That'll be coming tomorrow. You're welcome to post or not post until then.
Blagh, I am bad at remembering to do your detect evil results. The good news is that, as in this case, if I forget, it's usually because there's nothing important to tell (no evil).
A re-asking of the," Do we have a running loot / gold total, and if not, would it be desired that I keep track of that? " question.
Edit: Also, what's our current route? If we don't have one, can we head back to Oleg's to liquidate loot, check in on NPCs, turn in quests ( hah! ), and then finish off the northwest quadrant of the exploring?
I don't think anyone's been keeping track of our loot so far. I know I haven't I do think we still have a route that's heading back towards Oleg's Post (RocketMan suggested it many pages ago).
Looks like we're somewhere between C4 and D3; Once we're in D3 proper, we only need to go through D2 before we can detour in to Oleg's post at E2 before hitting E1.
My first examination shows that ( having sold all mundane gear we picked up from the two bandit fights), the following is the state of the parties finances.
1,922 Gold Pieces and 5 Silver Pieces.
In addition, we currently have: 3 Stag Lord Amulets, Potion of Cure Light Wounds, Wand of Magic Missiles, A Ring, and a Spellbook. The treasure pickings have been a little slim, so far.
I know we're planning on selling the ring; what is the desire to be done with the Wand and the Spellbook?
I think Zinovia was going to take the book and the wand.
Anyhow, since nobody had any more to say, you're back at Oleg's Post. Since you're done with your old route, I'll need a new one before you can venture out again.
For exploration path, I'm going to suggest just going up to E1, heading straight west to A1, right on down to A2, then coming all the way back to Oleg's past along the 2's. Clearing nine more hexes, and setting up a run through the remaining 3's, 4's, and 5's.
As for the merchant; I assume we're selling the mundane gear. So we've got 1,992.5 GP in the party kitty. Doesn't actually give us much of a budget for buying anything fun.
Unless Winterfell wants the masterwork longbow for Viktor I think it's safe to sell that too, since neither Ilya nor Tireas can use it. Ilya would like the arrows though.

That plan sounds good. Second, Viktor doesn't need the bow so I'd say sell it.
With the Masterwork Longbow sold, our current pool is 2180 GP. Let me know if you do go through with purchasing that masterwork katana so I can debit it accordingly; that goes the same for everyone, too. The money is there to be used, but be sure to let me know so I can keep track of it.
And my concern stems from the degree to which we're behind the curve; we're very nearly to third level. We're 'supposed' to have around 3,000 GP worth of gear/wealth each; what we've got is more like 1/6th that. I know that WBL is only a very broad guideline, but that feels pretty stark. Should we try to figure out some extra ways to make money? Guided tours of the Stolen Lands for jaded nobles? *eyes Ilya*
Nah, I wouldn't worry about it. Always wait until the adventure is over before looking over the WBL tables. We've been doing fine with these encounters so far, so I don't think there is any cause for concern.

I get the concern, folks, that you're low on gold. I admit I haven't been monitoring it super-closely, but some of the problem is also that a lot of the money you get over the course of this module comes from quest rewards (tatzylwyrm killing and kobolds, mainly). So things should pick up once you've got that. Rest assured, though, that I'll keep a closer eye on things and make sure you're around WBL by the time you hit level 3.
To de-mystify those rolls a bit, they're something I asked OMG to roll based on a letter he PMed to me. There's nothing untoward going on; I just enjoy having the element of realism that you guys don't know everything that everyone's doing.
So obviously, everyone should feel free to avail themselves of that if you'd like.
If you've got anything to finish up at Oleg's, try to post soon. I'll be getting you back on into the woods now that you've got a path settled later today unless anyone has outstanding business.
Fact check: my latest IC post referred to the Narlmarches being to the west. This is not the case. The marsh in question is in fact the Hooktongue Slough. I've edited the IC post to reflect that, but if you read it beforehand, here you go!
And, for my 4th post in a row, speaking of geography, I've put a new section in the OP of this thread with a little bit about the geography of the Stolen Lands (with lots of giant pictures). I'll add more for other regions if it's something you folks are finding helpful.

I do think we still have a route that's heading back towards Oleg's Post (RocketMan suggested it many pages ago).
