Taliesin will buy studded leather armor and exchange his leather armor (I'm assuming it'll be 50% trade in so the studded leather will only cost me 40g). He wants to wait till the group hires a guide before he goes out to buy more specific things for the trip.

That's fine. Mostly everyone bought personal supplies they think they were going to need with there own cash. You need to hire a guide before the party dips into the gems to buy healing potions, canoes, beasts of burden upgrading armor and weapons etc...Just add whatever you buy to your character sheet and subtract the gold. Everyone made a small post here saying what they bought and how much it cost.
The entrance to the Inn is a large T-Rex skull with its jaws wide open. You enter the Inn by going through the mouth of the T-Rex. There is a curtain hanging in the doorway that you push aside to enter. The common room is large with tables spread out, fifteen in total.
There is a small flight of stairs (7 steps) that lead to a landing where a bar is set up. It's a circular bar with one local Chultan man tending the bar. Across from the landing on the other side of the common room is another flight of stairs leading to another landing. On that landing is a stage. Smack dab in the middle of the room is a large poster board with many papers on it.
The sounds of the jungle, dinosaurs roaring throughout the night and the stifling heat made it difficult to get a good nights rest but you did manage to get some sleep. After you awake and do your morning rituals, you all head to the common room of the Thundering Lizard.
Inside the room, you notice a large female half-orc. She is wearing chain shirt that looks like it was being polished all night. A mace hangs from her belt and she has a large briefcase by her feet. She gets up and waves towards Thor and Tap with a huge grin on her face.
Standing by the bar is an attractive woman. She looks to be around Twenty five years of age. She is clothed in light blue robes and carries a walking stick carved in the likeness of a stylized couatl. She stands 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighs 110 pounds. She nods to the party and gives Kaslo a wave and smile.
Sitting a few chairs away from Eku is another guide you noticed from the Board, Salida. Salida is wearing a soft looking greenish robe and you can see the hint of leather underneath it. A scimitar is dangling on her left hip and a machete is hanging from her right. A longbow is draped across her back and a greenish turban is on her head. She is roughly 5' 4" and in good shape. You notice her scowling at Eku but when she see's you she smiles and waves to Krav.
Sitting in the corner by the stairs to the stage is another woman. She has a brown fedora sitting on the table. She is wearing a set of customized leather armor that looks more like a pair of long shorts and sleeveless shirt. It has the look of something a gladiator might wear in the arena. Mostly for show and minimal protection. A blowgun is leaning against the wall next to her and as she stands you can see a pair of gauntlets on her belt with large spikes on the knuckles. She is very attractive and has the look of someone that is alert to danger at every moment. She gives a big smile and waves to Greggor.
The bartender has a large breakfast laid out for the group of fruits and loaves of bread, various sized hard boiled eggs, and fish. There is coffee set up in containers and other fruity type drinks as well.
Krav, having already eaten when he woke an hour before from a wonderful night's sleep among the sounds of nature, sits down next to Salida with a smile.
"Good morning!" he says.
"I guess my companions had some possible guides come here, too!"
Kaslo nods to Krav and Ahkmenos. "Good morning to ye both", and heads over to the bar where Eku is standing. He motions slightly to Salida with his head and says somewhat quietly "She doesn't seem all too happy to see you here, Anything we should be concerned about?"
"Morning Krav,"She looks around the room at the various people. "I only know of one guide in here beside me and that's her." She says scowling at Eku. "I know not who these other people are. Well, that's not entirely true. That lady over there."
She points to the female with the gladiator gear and blowgun.
"She was a very popular gladiator 20 years ago in Chult. She had a very impressive record of twenty-three victories and only two losses. Her name is Zaidi Balaka but people just called her Zee. After she amassed a small fortune she decided to quit the games and she became an archeologist. She's had some varying degrees of success and has made some very exciting discoveries. I assume she is in need of some help with another find and she is willing to guide your group around in exchange for the help."
Tap returns Undril's wave and greets her with her own voice. Leaving the others to do the talking, Tap shoulders his viol as if it was a violin and begins to play. In his new Chultan bard's garb, he's hoping that a spectulacular performance will pay for the feast that was set out for them. To that end, he leaps and dances amongst the tables while playing a breakneck jig.
Eku takes Kaslo's hand and gives him a warm smile. "It's nothing child. She is afraid of the competition, nothing more. I hear bad things about that one but judge people by their merits, not rumors. I hope you rested well?"
Undril gets up as Thor approaches and gives him a salute. "I am ready and hoping this is the day I finally get to set out to my new post. When you said you had companions I didn't realize you had a war party you were traveling with. Very impressive friend Thor. Shall we meet your friends?"

The various guides applaud your performance and it seems that it loosened everyone up. The bartender gives you a nod and hands you a small pouch.
”This is Undril, she is a cleric from the Order of the Gauntlet. She seeks passage to camp vengeance, which is south of the city. I figured we may be able to help, in return for our escort, there is payment and information regarding the death curse.”

Eku takes Kaslo's hand and gives him a warm smile. "It's nothing child. She is afraid of the competition, nothing more. I hear bad things about that one but judge people by their merits, not rumors. I hope you rested well?"
"Well I would rather not be ten days into the sweltering jungle and then find out our guide doesn't have our best intentions. If you know something about this woman, and why we shouldn't trust our lives with her, I would like to hear it. In fact, I think the whole group should hear it. Would you please comes meet the rest of the party?"

Would you please comes meet the rest of the party?"
Eku frowns but follows Kaslo to meet the rest of the group."I am Eku, I've been a guide around these parts for well over a century, I am reliable and well spoken of by any that have used my services. There are other guides that have less than stellar reputations and have had failed expeditions going out into the jungle but that is their tale to tell. I only speak of myself and my accomplishments. If you choose me as your guide I will do my duties to the best that I can. I know of the great Guardian Naga Saja N’baza that lives in the ancient city of Orolunga, She is the best source of information in Chult and if anyone can answer your questions about the Death Curse and your quest it would be her."

Ahkmenos will help himself to the food and drinks and wait to see what happens between his peers and the guides.

Thor approaches Undril,
“Good morning! You look excited to be on your way finally!” He chuckles at her excitement as well as her polished armor.
