Ok, Yosgrim will pay 100gp for Common items and 400gp for Uncommon. Before your next adventure, you'll get a couple of months downtime. What does everyone do in this time? And additionally, does anyone have any large ambitions they'd like to complete? It's hard to do organize full side quests, but we can certainly make a couple die rolls in private to simulate such a thing.

(( It are 1 common, 3 uncommon and 1 rare spellscroll))

Erix would train more with Chumulk, to also see if he can ride him as a mount. Other than that I think Erix will just try to stay in good contact with his parents and others in his family by helping and working with the animals etc. (you never know when a powerful family comes in handy after all)

Oh for real? The rare one is worth 4000gp I think!

Anyone else doing much in their downtime?

I know Mark will want to go shopping in his downtime.

What does he want to buy?

Alright so 4000+3*400+100=5300/3 equals lets say 1750 pp.

For Erix I think one thing he might look for is a barrier tatoo, but not sure if that's out of his league regarding funds atm^^

Depending on which one you want it could be either 400gp (Rare) 4,000gp (Rare) or 40,000gp(Very Rare). Additionally, you'll need to find someone in the city with the ability to inscribe magical barrier tattoos. In Eberron, this kind of high level magic is actually very rare. You're incredibly lucky to know someone like Yosgrim, who can make physical magic items. He would be the only person wany of you know with that ability.

@ZelocktheDragon - Do you know what stuff Mark was wanting to buy? Otherwise I'm ready to describe the events of the next few months and start up our next adventure, Night Below.

Studded Leather +1 (1,500 gp) + Boots of Elvenkind (2,500 gp) + 5 Healing Potions (250 gp) = 4,250 gp total please let me know if my math is wrong.

Using the math from the new DMG it's a little bit different. Common magic items are 100gp (except for potions of healing which are half price), Uncommon is 400gp, Rare is 4000gp, and so forth. So Studded Leather +1 is 4045gp, Boots of Elvenkind is 400gp. Additionally, if you want weapons and armor you then add the price of the equipment to that price.

The issue is that access to all those items is going to be tricky. You could certainly put in an order to Yosgrim, who will now charge you for item creation, for one of the two permanent items. You'll have to choose between the Studded Leather and the Boots of Elvenkind, and they won't be ready till after your next adventure. As for the other items, your going to have to do some digging to procure them.

So what you thinking @ZelocktheDragon?

Okay, well I will want to pick up normal studded leather and order of boots of elevenkind. Then I will save the rest of my gold. 

Alright. Yosgrim will take the commission for the Boots of Elvenkind for 400gp and will have it ready after your next adventure. You then can easily source the Studded Leather for 45gp.

perfect.

Over the next few months, you all go about your business. Mark spends time looking at his think-board and shopping for better gear, while putting in a new order with Yosgrim. Erix goes about his seperate work of training with Clumulk and other animals. Clumulk grows fast in this time, and eventually becomes Large, allowing Erix to actually ride his Worg companion. You also Al level up to Level 5!

One day, Elero receives a letter from the dean of his old school, Kalrey d’Medano, inviting you to visit her at the villa of House Jorasco for a surreptitious meeting.

Feel free to level yourselves up and then do you go to this meeting?

Sure, let's go to the meeting.

During the downtime, Elero would like to fashion a "rod, staff or wand" out of metal, that has a straight handle portion, then coils in the shape of spring, and then ends in an arrow-like point, and carve the necessary sigils into it to use that as his Arcane Firearm.  Additionally, the morning of the visit, he'll use the All-Purpose Tool to learn the cantrip Message for the day.

Elero does a that before receiving the note and heading to the meeting with Kalrey at the Jorasco estate in Sharn. (I’m speeding through this somewhat as the other players have finished an introductory adventure and are waiting for you all to join up.)

You take the lift to Upper Central, where you find the Temple District, with white cobbled streets and acolytes in flowing robes running between enormous churches. All the major gods are represented: The Silver Flame, The Sovereign Host, even a few gods you’ve never heard of. Set apart from these temples is a manor house bearing the mark of House Jorasco, the halfling Dragonmark of Healing. When you get to the gate, you see let in by a couple of very posh looking Halflings that lead you into the manor and to a meeting room.

Inside you find Elero’s dean, the half-elf Kalrey d’Medani sitting with an older nice looking halfling with two missing fingers on his right hand. The brown haired professor greets Elero, “Elero, You came! Thank you so much for meeting with me. I’m here on a mission from Operation Stoneveil to try and recruit House Jorasco to our cause, and it seems all of our interests may line up with that of The Rouge. You see, Tarric Jorasco here has a son that has gone missing down at Shane’s Welcome. He has said that if we can help return his missing son, he will consider lending House Jorasco’s healing abilities to the cause of rooting out Daask. Do you all think you’d be able to help us?” The halfling next to her is wringing his hands in worry.

"I'm intrigued," Elero says as he approaches them, "and the Rouge are always willing to help children in danger.  I don't believe I'm familiar with Operation Stoneveil, though.  Can you tell us more about it?"

(Operation Stoneveil is the combined efforts of The Sharn Watch and a few of the Dragonmarked Houses to 'put an end' to Daask in Sharn. While instrumental in the Operation's inception, The Rouge has not been invited to join due to a couple of the leader's not trusting/liking you.)

At the mention of children, the well dressed halfling, Tarric Jorasco, let's out a little laugh, "Actually my son is a bit older than a child, he's a young man. Although at times I feel he has the heart of a child, quite an innocent caring lad. He spends most of his time down at the docks in Sharn's Welcome helping the helpless, in fact i'm starting to think that good-naturedness  is what's gotten him into trouble." Tarric sighs, "After his last visit we had a small fight about him shirking his responsibilities to go and help those down there, and he declared he won't be back for days, but that was almost a week ago now. I went down to Sharn's Welcome a couple days ago and asked a few local adventurers to help me find him, but no word. Either they've simply ran off with the money I gave them, or they've fallen into the same trap my Anric has. Obviously it's time to call in the professionals: I'm willing to declare my support for Operation Stoneveil, as well as supply The Rouge with 10,000gp to find my son, Anric d'Jorasco, and bring him home. What do you say?" Both the half-elf and halfling look at you expectantly.

"I think we can help you.  Who would've wanted to harm your son, or failing that, who would want to prevent your son from helping the people of Sharn's Welcome?"

Elero raises an eyebrow. "Is there anyone who might want to harm you, Tarric, and may have abducted your son in order to get to you?"
