4.0 Gaming Opportunities During Holiday Break

@ Krystoff, if you want to bring Steven over earlier, I'm completely okay with that. Might depend some on Brad... I'll be here in any event.

Hey, that can be fun if Chris & Steven can come over an hour earlier, I know of what 'warm up' adventure I want to run...

Alright Steven and I will try to be there by 5 then. What should I bring for food?

You may bring whatever you'd like. If you can't think of anything, KFC is good (I know Kobe will eat that). You can also opt for South China's chicken wings.

On our way, stopping by KFC to grab some chicken. Should be there around 5:20. Call 425 273 5481 if you need/want anything.

How much loot did we get?

20,000 GP each PC in cash (well, gold bars, magic dust, and common loot that we converted to dollars)

I think you need to keep it separate. 10,000 in residium and 10,000gp. Might make a difference later.

Also, I don't think you can trade the Residium straight across for gold unless your selling it to a vampire clan.

Exactly! The gold peices can be sold to a jewler et. al., but is not currency in the Buffyverse. A few metalurgists etc are interested in the residuum as a curiosity only, but there is no market for it, as it's only use is for enchanting items and no one believes seriously that magic's possible. In other words, except to Ember and you suspect Vampires, residuum is worthless and no one living will pay more than $1 for a teaspoon, which is about everyone's 10k gp share. No one living's ever seen it before (except Devas & Ember, but not in that quantity). Ember's bookwormy research, plus Giles & now Buffy's telepathic teaching, & the way you found in in a very nice bag in a locked treasure chest of gold peices, let's you know residuum is it's name & it's not worthless (by far).

Ember, because of her magical Slayer awakening & fascination with occult research, (i.e. picking ritual casting feat) understands how to magically transform pure gold into residuum, which is needed for all magical enchantings (I think, most anyway). Side note, as the PCs eventually find out, anyone buying or selling more than $10,000 worth of physical gold is required by banking laws to fill out 'race 10k' gov't forms regarding the transactions...

Post Script: That means that Gravin, Stephen's new PC Slayer, started out with (3 magic items +) 17,000 dollars, and now has 10,000 dollars worth of gold and $10k gold worth of residuum dust, but not $37k or $27k. Oh, also, Giles' old place where some were staying just so happened to have the lease coming up and some of you are still wanted fugitives <until someone takes action to face trial et. al.>. Others too (depending on who can play next) are in Munich traveling home (& avoiding Castle Strahd this month at least). If you want to buy a place/car/etc it's whatever your estimate of whatever actual prices are on average. Exception: Los Diables real estate, that is actually much higher than real world.
