Heroica RPG - Marketplace

[Costy]

I sell my Helmet for 15 Gold, Leaving me with 454 Gold.

I then buy some counterstrike gloves for 80 Gold, and 2 Meads, 4 potions, a remedy, and 2 smoke bombs for a total of 70 Gold((2*15=30 + 4*5=20 +10+ 2*5=10)= 70

I leave with 304 gold.

[Zepher]

Boomingham, having checked on Servus and enjoying the cool air outside against his face, decides to swing by the markets before stopping at an inn. His breath is visible, but thanks to the residue of drink his insides remain warm. He flips through his new book- it has lots of little money making tips- namely that one can check the boot of a downed foe, because they always hide money there- or sometimes there are inside pockets they've sown shut.

"Tricky devils," Boomingham growls out in admiration. He chuckles at their ingenuity.

His first stop is Anwyl's. He tosses the dwarf his Frozen Sabre and Scupperer, along with the Ruby and Opal. "The Rubber in the darker steeled one, the Opal in the one that's cold to the touch. Don't mess it up. You know the drill, chappo, I'll be back around for them." (180-100=80)

Boomingham then sidles over to Portia's Potion shack and picks out five beautiful bottles of mead (80-75=5). He considers hawking a potion or two for more, but they hardly fetch a price that was worth it, and he figures he may need them, so he tosses the gold on the counter, offers up a smile and wink, and goes to recollect his swords. They gleam on the counter. Boomingham picks them back up and slings them on his back as is now his style. He marches out of the market and looks for somewhere to sleep peacefully.

[Endgame]

I meander into the marketplace, a shadowy figure clad in robes and armor. My pocket is full to burst with gold, having mugged practically every single malignant soul in Miranda. With all that gold, a shopping spree in order. Stopping at Portia's Potion Shack, I practically loot the stores of meads, smelling slats, and nostrums. As I go to check out, I realize that if looks could kill, Portia would have murdered me twice over.

"...Is there an issue?"

"Yes. You."

I sigh and pay for my goods: 10 Meads (15x10=150), 10 Smelling Salts (25x10=250), 10 Nostrums, (35x10=350) and 2 Phoenix Essences (50x2=100) (150+250=400+350=750+100=850 gold spent)

With Portia still shooting me hateful glances, I head over to Anwyl's smithy. I place down my steel fan in front of the "dwarven" smith, the blade resonating an icy aura from the opal imbued within.

"This for your girlfriend, undead?"

"No, I simply don't argue with results. Can you upgrade this to WP: 20?" (130+140+150+160+170+180+190+200= 1320 gold spent.

Anwyl shrugs and sets to work. I grab a quick brunch at the hall, and return with a full stomach - and a nearly empty wallet, compared to how full it was before. I pick up my Steel Fan, the blade now nearly twice as deadly, and pass Anwyl the gold his services required.

(1320+850=2170. 2826-2170=656 gold left.)

[-obelix-]

After he left the Hall, Thalion rushed to the marketplace to get some supplies for the upcoming quest.

"Good day mistress Portia. I would like three potions please." Thalion handed 15 gold to Portia, and put 3 Potions in his pack. He left the marketplace with 125 - 15 = 110 gold.

[Shoker86]

After signing up for the quest Arnulf bought tricorne for 120 gold and sold dagger for 15 gold. He returned to the hall with 38 gold left

Sir Brickington buys 2x (two) Venom, the Winged Helmet, and a shovel. (80 - 135 = 55) Leaving Sir Brickington with 55 gold.

[joeshmoe554]

Jeaux walks over to Smokebeard's smithy where he sells his old bow for 15 gold before picking up a new one for 50 gold. As Jeaux took the new weapon he, decided it deserved a new name. He thought for a moment before carving the name Eminus into the handle with one of the arrows from his quiver.

Jeaux then headed to the fashion shop where he bought a rangers quiver for 20 gold.

(130 + 15 = 145 - 50 = 95 - 20 = 75)

Jeaux returned to the hall with 75 gold remaining in his pockets.

[Tachyon]

Mizuki runs into the marketplace and buys a nostrum(37-35=2)

[Palathadric]

Passing by Gnomeo’s tool shack, I peruse his wares. Interesting equipment you’ve got here, though the variety is limited at best. Considering that, from the sounds of it, we’ll be questing in a dragon’s cave, I think it would be wise for me to purchase a pickaxe from you.

I drop the gold on the table and he hands me the Pickaxe.

45 – 20 = 25 Gold Remaining.

[Kintobor]

Karie walks up to Portia's, a grimacing look on her face. She obviously remembered their last encounter. Karie begins to browse through her wares, one hand behind her back, the other outstretched with her index finger swiftly pointing at different wares, Portia's eyes following its every move. Her other hand reaches for smoke bomb when Portia smacks it.

"Look are you going to buy anything or do I have to call the guards?"

Karie crossed her arms and sighed.

"Party pooper." She mumbled under her breath.

She purchased 2 smoke bombs, 4 potions, 2 remedies, 1 mead, 2 venoms, and 1 lightning bomb, adding up to the sum of 85 gold pieces, which after deducting from her 143, left her with 58 gold pieces. 10- 20- 20- 15- 10- 10= 85- 143= 58

She continued to wander through the market until she came across the gnome again. He kept a close eye on her, following her as she made her way through his wares.

"How much is the telescope?"

"For you, 40 gold pieces."

"That's the original price though?"

"I know."

Karie dug into her pockets and counted out the 40 gold pieces, and handed them to the gnome, leaving her with 18 gold pieces. 58-40= 18

With her pouch of coins severely lighter,Karie carried took her new found items to the docks in search of the Hinckwell ship.

[Scubacarrot]

Guts walks into the Marketplace, his eyes betray his soberness. The raider spend the last few days working on his new ship. The co-owners hadn't even bothered to show their faces. He was taking a break, and decided to stock up, should a mission pop up. He started at Portia's stall, and bought:

6x Smelling Salts (6x25=150)

5x Nostrum (5x35=175)

5x Mead (5x15=75)

6x Remedy (6x10=60)

6x Grand Potion (6x10=60)

Total: (150+175+75+60+60= 520) (921-520= 401 Gold Left.)

He then stopped by Fabian's, where he had the Opal from his Armour unmerged, at the cost of 50 gold. (401-50=351 Gold left)

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge takes The demonic scissors to Anwyl, and asks him to disembue the ruby from his demonic scissors (315-50=285), then gets him to upgrade it to WP:17 (285-170=115)

Sarge then exits the marketplace.

[Jebediahs]

En Sabah Nur arrived at the Marketplace. He spent some time looking for an open area that still received a good deal of foot traffic.

"Ah, this will do nicely." Nur's bushy beard and mustache combo raised briefly as he gave a few passers-by a closed mouth smile. He took out a rather official looking piece of parchment. "You have my thanks, Byblos." He squatted using his staff for balance and laid the parchment before him. A waif or two stopped to watch the mage-thief work.

"Watch this, lass." Nur let go of his staff that stood tall on its own. He waved his rocky hand as a distraction and "removed" a mythril shard from the girl's ear. Nur waited expectanly for a reaction but the girl seemed unimpressed. She mimicked Nur's movements and "retrieved" a smoke bomb from his ear.

"Give me that!" The mage smiled wide. "Now, for the real show..." He scooped up a pinch of gravel with his fingers. His hands glowed green as he mumbled an incantation. Nur set the mythril shard on the parchment. The street urchin crab crawled backward to gain distance as the shard began to float. A replica of the shard was imprinted on the parchment where it spun and flickered at random intervals. Nur inscribed some text with a lightning charged finger which sent his audience running. He grinned, returned his items to his pack then pinned his note at the Marketplace.

[The Legonater]

600 gold? Pocket change. Lliw Srum of Timbus I!

I hope I pronounced that right.

[Masked Builder]

Alexis walks into the market, quickly striding over to Portia's. Where she buys:

8x Nostrum (8x35=280)

8x Mead (8x15=120)

8x Remedy (8x10=80)

8x Grand Potion (8x10=80)

"Thanks." She mumbles as she moves to Anwyl's. She places her bow on the table and says: "Let's make this WP: 20 please." (150+160+170+180+190+200=1050) After Anwyl finishes she places her whip on the table. "WP: 18." (100+110+120+130+140+150+160+170+180=1260)

Alexis heads to the hall much lighter.

4501-(Portia's 560 Gold)-(Anwyl's 1050 Gold+1260 Gold)= 1631 Gold Left

[UsernameMDM]

Hoke entered the Marketplace. He rummaged through his pack to see what items he could possibly sell. He pulled out the Scrap Metal and sold it to a traveling merchant for 25 gold pieces.

233 + 25 = 258 gold

He could feel that spring was in the air, but Elphaba was nowhere to be seen. He needed a garnet to finish his collection, so Hoke pocketed this gold and walked about to find a tailor.

[Sandy]

The everyday chores of the citizens of Eubric were interrupted as a wagon without horses strolled along the streets. Mutters and curses could be heard being spewed behind the curtains.

"Bah, late?! I am never late! A witch is always on time. So what if I had a run-up with porcish raiders in the Pantanan marshes? Who cares if my wagon was almost eaten by a Giant Wyrm in the Desert of Woe? What business is it to anyone if I had to stop to pay overdue taxes to the International Coven of Witches in Drandora? I'm here now! Late?! Bah, humbug!"

~Elphaba's Magic Wagon is now open, and will remain in the Marketplace until the end of April!~

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge purchases a diamond for 100 gold, then sells his Ruby to elephaba for 50 gold, leaving him with 65 gold.

[The Legonater]

Time to armour up.

I buy an Amethyst (2855-100=2755) then merge the Amethyst and Diamond into my Briar Bow (2755 - 50 - 50 = 2655).

I then upgrade it to WP:20 (2655 - 120 - 130 - 140 - 150 - 160 - 170 - 180 - 190 - 200 = 1565)

The dead shall be avenged. They shall not die for nothing - their death shall help the freedom of this world. You are no longer the 'Briar Bow'. I name thee Requiem, Last Song of Hans

I buy leather armour. (1565 - 30 = 1535) and upgrade it to SP:10 (1535 - 20 - 30 - 40 - 50 - 60 - 70 - 80 - 90 - 100 = 185)

I do not buy leather armour. I instead buy Tricorne (1565 - 120 = 1445). I am left unsatisfied, but richer.

I also buy a ​Pheonix Essence (1445 - 50 = 1395) a Smelling Salt (1395 - 25 = 1375) a Bedroll (1375 - 5 = 1370) and a Shovel (1375 - 10 = 1365)

In a second burst of shopping, I buy a Garnet, Emerald, Opal, Ruby, Sapphire, Topaz, Diamond and Amethyst, (1365 - 100 - 100 - 100 - 100 - 100 - 100 - 100 - 100 = 565) and imbue them and my Aquamarine into the Tricorne (565 - 50 - 50 - 50 - 50 - 50 - 50 - 50 - 50 - 50 = 115).

There. I am done.

OOC: If anyone wants to check my math, please do.
