To business, as usual with you, my lady," he began.  Retrieving his journal and removing a document therefrom, Mouser said,  "All participants get an equal share in our adventuring party, which I've informally named the Emerald Spire Conquistadors.  The magnanimous Lady Vendi, whose beauty is only matched by her shrewd negotiation skills, has managed to secure letters of marque from Fort Inevitable for our entire party.  Though most letters of marque require its holders to forfeit 30% of their loot to the Hellknights, Lady Vendi has somehow managed to get the Paralictor to agree to let us retain all the loot we collect.  Aside from that, all participants are entitled to 50 gold pieces as a sign-on bonus, plus other benefits as we go.  Truly, Lady Vendi is very generous, provided we permit her to come along."<br/><br/><strong>GM NOTE:</strong><br/><br/>If you have posted before noon on Monday (pacific time), then you are entitled to the sign-on bonus of 50gp.
