I thought it was funny :)
I as well thought it was most amusing :-)
I also got a huge kick out of it.

The only thing about this thread that I find not amusing in the slightest is that Murgen is apparently being left out as a chooser. Without him and his incredible leadership of the Lowbies, you lot probably wouldn't have ever made it off the first floor. Ingrates. ;)

(In case the wink is not indication enough for those of you lacking in even a modest "sense humor ability" ... I am joking! We lowbies were amply rewarded.)

All right, I think I put everything mentioned in the thread in a google spreadsheet.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing

Let's see if it helps.
Write 1 or 2, in your PC's name column
1 : if you want this item / this item will definately improve your PC
2: not your first choice, but you can still use this item

Start with the permanent items.
Let's see if this can help.
Add items if I forgot anything.
In the "first round", let's try to attribute one permanent item to everyone.
Mostly concerned by Marisha and Jack, hope there's something for you too.

Not sure what to do with Yeshua's Grace, as it is an Ilmateri relic.

I was recently insta-smeared as well. It is indeed no fun. If it makes you feel any better, the portal led to a platform that had the final exit and all the final loot. If you’d gone through you’d have been toast anyway.

I think the Ogre Gauntlets were another joke post. It came just under dergon's joke post. I thought. If they were not a joke, then Toliv also very much would like those Gauntlets as a first pick - as he's a frontline fighter most times and almost always overweight. :(

EDIT: Looking back at the post, now it does not seem like a joke.
There were Gauntlets of Ogre Power??! NICE! please oh please please pretty please!

Quality shitpost
There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind

Toliv would be willing to donate his Bracers +1 Armor, and Ring +1 STR to the group if he can have those gauntlets of Ogre power. Just some incentive if the group agrees for him to have them. As I said the Armor he got is nice, but his AC does not even change - and he's the only Elf on the server who can wear full plate anyway (lol). What it does best is frees up his glove slot, and if he got the Ogre power gloves, the ring +1 STR he has now would also not stack. So, he'd not hesitate to give over those two items above which should help others out as well as help Toliv a lot. Just a thought. Here's hoping!

All right, this is what I've come up with:

Wayfarer: his magic sword, <open slot>
Dahvet: Book of Levi (divine favor 1/day), Amulet of natural armor +1
Keryn: The wanderer's ring (bonus wiz spells & blue light), Magus guard bracers (+1AC)
Marisha: Cloak of Flame Broil (Fire resistance 5/-), <open slot>
Toliv: Gauntlets of ogre power (Str +2), Black swan (full plate +1)
Bran: Ring of cold (Fire resistance 5/-), <open slot>
Jack: Leather armor +2, dagger +2

Galadorn, Bran would take you up on that offer for that Ring +1 Str.
I have no use for the other item, but perhaps Marisha does?
There are two remaining items, that no one wanted: Ring Resistance +1, Metal Staff (AC +1 Deflection).
I propose that they be sold and Marisha and Wayfarer split the gold between themselves.

Scrolls go to Keryn (I'd take the Dispel magic one, but I'm pretty sure it's Arcane! :P).
Ice bolts between Jack and Toliv.
I'm surprised the potions are so unpopular! ;)
Bran can cast all of those effects as spells, so I've no particular need.

So... How does that sound?

Thank you!
And yes, Toliv would be happily forthwith IC (and I would be happy myself OOC) to donate to the group the Ring +1 STR for sure. ((i usually save those weakest magic items as IC gifts to be honest... I know how great it is when a 1st level character meets up with an established PC, and after some RP is just given a cool item... i've given hundreds away, and it's always appreciated)).


and BTW, I only mentioned the Bolts of Ice since there was 99 of them, and if by some chance we could "trade some of them" for arrows; Toliv would love a few. He's a dead-shot (pardon the pun :( ) with the bow (ALL his feats are Bow related), and worships Solonor Thelandira...but we have so many archers when we are in a large group (like last weekend), and we needed frontliners so badly, Toliv often has to assume a tank role... none of that matters anyway, but if the bolts can be traded for arrows somehow, Toliv would love a few ... but it's very low priority - VERY low priority - in fact if Jackman, and others who use Crossbow want them all, it's totally fine.

I’m sure everyone (maybe except Bran) would want potions. But they should be used to help even things out for PCs who got less.

So... How does that sound?
The Ring of Resistance +1 is +1 universal saves and 15m light
I think there are 2 Rings of Cold. If Bran has one, Jack gave another to Marisha.
I'm happy to give someone Jack's current set of Leather +1. You might want to change the color from lost sewer baby shite yellow.
