The Party Magic Item Haul

The running inventory:

• Wand of Pyrotechnics — recovered from Gnomengarde; briefly held by Harbin, returned with the quest payout.
• Clockwork Amulet — carried by Dax. Used to steady the first swing after Barnaby got him off the floor, when he no longer trusted his own hands; the beheading, two orcs later, was his own (Session 6).
• Hat of Wizardry
• Pole of Collapsing — used to fish the Abbathor necklace out of a dead jelly’s acidic remains.
• Sending Stones (a linked pair) — 25 words per message, one message a day, any distance. Recovered in Session 7: the first pried out of Dazlyn Grayshard’s dead hand on the road, the second put on the bar by his brother Norbus, who had no use for half a pair. Thom carries one; the other travels with the party and has not been assigned to anyone. The word limit is strict: Thom’s first message was cut off one word short of his own name.
• The temple +1 longsword — found by Barnaby under a bed frame in the priests’ sleeping chamber (Session 6). No additional special properties. He kept it when he sold his ordinary longsword in Session 9.

Suspicious acquisitions (not yet identified)

• The Abbathor necklace — gold, nameplate illegible, overwritten in ancient Dwarvish: “This is what happens to those who displease me.” Carried by Rut. Nobody in-game has flagged the risk.
• Abbathor’s holy symbol — a small jeweled dagger on a silver chain, lifted from a skeleton in the temple crypt by Hamish. The Dwarvish runes cut into it read “Greed is good.” Two members of the party now carry jewellery taken off this god’s dead (Session 6).
• A manticore tail spike — pulled from a corpse by Rut, who kept it without saying why. Now filed alongside a mimic tentacle and a green orc eyeball, optic nerve attached (Session 7).

Notable mundane gear

• A thousand ball bearings — Barnaby’s, scattered across the orcs’ only way in, and most of what made that fight winnable (Session 6).
• The orc leader’s chain mail — stripped off the war-leader’s body by Dax and identified as human work out of a Neverwinter garrison, battered and blood-stained. Orcs do not make this. Dax’s read — never confirmed — is that the band took it off somebody who could not stop them, and not far from here (Session 7).
• A sheepskin map of the Sword Coast — orcish scouting notation, read by Hamish. Raid targets marked along the Triboar Trail and the High Road, around Leilon, and near Phandalin, with a clear preference for mountainous ground (Session 7).
• 150 gp and 70 tarnished silver — the last offering chest, from the hidden chamber’s alcove, taken with written permission. The silver went to Norbus (Session 7).
• Thom’s shovel — currently the party’s primary tool against several hundred tons of cave-in.

Sold in Phandalin (Session 9)

• The gemstone coffer’s contents — rubies, emeralds and topaz, carried by Thom and never declared to the dwarves. Barthen bought them for 150 gp. The empty coffer was left in its original hiding place at the temple.
• The great emerald — diamond-cut, roughly 8 lbs, removed from the statue that exploded in the hidden chamber. Thom recovered his backpack with Phantom’s help and sold the emerald to Barthen for 350 gp. Its burden ended with the sale; its properties were never identified.

Those 500 gp and Harbin’s 300 gp investigation payment made 800 gp, shared at 114 gp each. Thornton’s earlier 50 gp was separately disclosed and shared at 7 gp each. Split remainders go nowhere under the table’s standing ruling. No further payment to Norbus was recorded.

Morning purchases (Session 9)

Thom bought scroll-making supplies and a component pouch for 35 gp; no scroll was completed. Barnaby bought a shortbow (25 gp), arrows (1 gp) and a healer’s kit (5 gp), selling his ordinary longsword for 7 gp. Dax bought a shield for 8 gp, without commissioning its optional emblem. Hamish bought a whip for 2 gp. The two religious necklaces retain their last recorded holders; no sale or transfer was established.
