You all stand in the main hall of the Academy, reading over the job listings of the day. One particular one stands out in your eyes...
Needed: Adventurers with strong sword-arms (clerics a plus) for investigation. The Roberts family is seeking a group to look into a series of disappearances of various urns and coffins from the family crypt, which connects to a more ancient series of un-explored temple grounds underground. 200 gold pieces per person for succesful resolution of this problem. Please present yourself at the Robert's Mannor on Hightower Hill outside town.
You all are standing in the hall, reading this notice. Please introduce yourselves and post if you want to do anything, or buy any items before leaving for the mannor.

Igor stands there reading the job listing that seems to jump at him. Hmmmm more then likely grave robbers. They shall pay for desecration of the resting places of decent people. He moved back into his room and pulled out from the chest at the base of his bed a small pack that is heavy with gold.
He walks to the vender at the academy and purchases a BAG (200-25=175 gp) and a holy symbol, silver (175-25=150). He thanks the vendor as he moves out of the academy to go to the blacksmith to purchase a longsword, studded leather, and a heavy wooden shield (150-47=103). After purchasing his weaponry he takes the time to don the equipment then makes his way over to the stable to purchase a light horse and a military saddle (103-85=18). He mounts his horse and rides toward the manor.

Anaqualia had been heading to the library when the notice caught her eye. There were several other people who seemed to have more than a passing interest in the mission.
Speaking aloud to herself, she says, "It's about time that I go out an have some fun." Then, grinning, she returns to her rooms to retrieve the money that she has been saving up just in case such an adventure should arise. After purchasing a few items, she goes to the stable and rents a horse to get her through the small amount of time she forsees this mission will take (3GP p/day) and leaves for the manor, anticipating an exciting chance to meet some new people and put some of her skills to the test.
Items purchased: (200 GP start) BAG (150 GP R) studded leather (125 GP R) light steel shield (116 GP R) dagger (114 GP R) Sap (113 GP R) Crossbow, light (78 GP R) Bolts x 20 (76 GP R) Longsword (61 GP R)

Qillanua Yunahe walks past the job listings, when she catches an eye on one that gets her attention. She notices that quite a few people are also interested in this job. She makes her way past the crowd to read it closer.
Human grave robbers surely, don't they ever respect the dead's rest?
She also takes note of the young half-elf's outbust This won't be "fun and games" young one she says to herself, assuming she left before it could be heard.
Yunahe makes her way back to her room to collect her collection of gold, 1200 to be exact. She writes down a list of items to take to the general store. The list contains the following:
B.A.G Daggers (2) Short Sword Long Sword Composite Short Bow (+2 Str) Quiver & Arrows (40) Leather Armor Light Horse (Nina) Riding Saddle Saddlebags Bit & Brittle
She takes this list to the general store and recounts her gold Six-hundred seventy three left, might as well save this in case of a rainy day she thinks to herself. She makes her way back to her room and places the gold back where she found it. Yunahe mounts up, and makes her way to Robert's Mannor.

Sorry guys, work had me moving offices yesterday....
Caatrah is walking the halls when he spies a group of students looking at a new notice. Standing behind them, and able to see over them, he stares at the notice, but then turns to the nearest one. "What's it say?"
After hearing of the job, he decides it is time to repay his debt to the academy by accompanying these students on this job. He runs to his room, actually a little excited for his first job, and opens his bedchest, where he keeps his possessions. He carefully pulls each of the items out, making sure each is ready to be used for the upcoming events.
His Greatsword recently sharpened to a nice sharp edge, a morningstar that he likes to use to bash things with, his suit of scalemail that was handed down to him, his recently purchased BAG that contains all the small items a student adventurer may need, and lastly, his set of 3 javelins. He pats his waist, knowing that he still has some money left from earlier, and decides to spend some of it now as he heads over to the local potion store for a Cure Light Wounds potion. With all the items now ready, he searches for the others, to make sure they are ready for their adventure.
