Gotta admit, even so. To pass as a noble, you need a noble's outfit, a signet ring, and 100 gp value of jewellery. So they're adorned to 3x the level of a surface noble.

Not that I'm complaining about valuable stuff, of course, but it seems a little odd.

I dunno, it does have the scent of a GM gift from the heavens, BUT Noble Drow really do carry that much ostentation about them. Gems and precious metals aren't even very rare to them, since they live in the underdark, and have an Empire, and have multitudes of slaves to dig it all out.

All I'm saying is, if the Gm wanted to give us some free stuff, he chose a good way to do it. Otherwise, he could have like, thrown 50 commoners down here or something, with 25 gold each. :P

This. Being underground, the drow don't really place too much value on metals and gems. Gold still isn't exactly worthless, but it's much cheaper than it would be to, say, a halfling village. If they were nobles, they'd probably have things you could only get on the surface; maybe wooden rings with amber, or cow leather. And as such, you probably wouldn't make so much off of looting dead nobles if you were planning on selling them to surface markets.

Also, i had a brain fart and mixed up Culpa and Ari. Most likely from lack of sleep.

Too late to fix things now!

Sorry I haven't been updating...I've been feeling like crap recently. I'll try to update soon, but it could be a bit still. Really sorry for all the bullshit about me not keeping this up to date and making you guys wait.

No worries. We can have more Ava and Culpa religious debates. Or Osirio flirting at Ava. Or the gnome being small.

There's a whole range of possibilities.

I find it interesting that Ari is denoted as "The small gnome" of the group. Truly an illustrious position we all envy.

Maybe they're one of the corpses? I will admit I had forgotten about them for some time but... Hm... It's probably just a busy time in their lives.

So that's why one of the corpses was moving... I guess that wasn't undead after all.

Thanks for putting up with my bullshit; I've been going through a lot IRL. I feel MUCH better now. Basically everything is finished, but I need to finalize a few things with my draft. It should be posted tomorrow.

Hmm. With our loot it would seem wise to get Ava a better maul, as she's a melee damage character.

Hey, Osirio. You know you want to pick Ava up something nice...?
