Embarrassed by Tender's unabashed question, you attempt to hush him into silence, but before you can say anything, Randal Morn speaks. "Of course, I offer you the sum of five thousand gold pieces to find the cause of this Drow incursion. This is all we can afford to pay as we are still rebuilding Daggerdales defences"
He stands and summons a porter with a bellow and returns to you. "You may stay here this evening if you wish. It will take around four to five hours by horse to reach the Dordrien crypts. If you go now, it will be the middle of the night by the time you reach there. I urge you to be quick. The Drow will undoubtedly strike again"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK guys, 5000gps to sought the problem.
If you set off now, you'll reach the crypts by late evening, or you can stay in the keep and set off tomorrow.

Mal studies the map closely, the distance, the locations nearby, everything he can. If possible, he would like to see if he has been anywhere near these crypts. If so, then he has a quick solution to get them instantly.
"If I am right, then this place is not that far from the raids. I have been a traveller here in these lands for many years. I can get us there quickly, if you all are ready to get underway. I would like to camp this night near the crypts, to keep a watchful eye on the Drow, should they decide to raid again tonight. What say you all?"
Mal is ready to use his Teleport to move the group to the crypts or as close as possible to them. Since there's a map, it shouldn't be a problem.

That would work. Everyone has heard of the Dordrien crypts. Its a place goatherds graze their flocks. You would'nt have a problem teleporting there. If everyone agrees, we'll get on with the adventure...

{Do we get the 5k in advance, or after? Just wondering about last minute supplies.
{also, for the record I prepared different spells today; will update list soon. If any of the fighters would like to carry a delay poison spell speak up and it could have been arranged last night before I got new spells. Remember that Drow poison could be the death of us if we're not careful. Anything we can do to prep for the inevitable would be wise.}

Lord Morn nods his head "I can out fit you with minor supplies - food, water and some potions we have stocked. I would consider it an advance on your pay"
{Basically, you would get 1000gp worth of minor potions and scrolls, thats all they would have in Daggerfalls at the moment}

"Find the cause of the incursion?" Ewan questions. "If we find the cause, there won't be any incursion to worry about. Nothing sleeps for long in the summer season. If the wolf lies, it is not tired. It is in ambush."
After checking his supplies of potions and beverages, Ewan is ready to go.

"I'm ready," says Tender, leaning back in his chair and yawning. "I'm tired, seeing as we only just got back in town, but I'm ready to go."
He gets up, "Let's teleport, I'm too mashed to walk I think. And let's keep nice and quiet tonight eh...I don't think I'm up for a fight until at least tomorrow."
{DM? Can I spend a grand on potions n stuff then?}

Yup, 1000gp worth of minor potions and scrolls. So, thats anything of 300gp or less for potions and 3rd level or less for arcane and devine scrolls.
Daggerdale has spent some years under the occuaption of the Zhents. It has only just been reclaimed (about 2 years ago). There is little effort put into to making fancy equipment in Daggerfalls unless required.
Make a list of what everyone wants and Randal Morn will have it by morning. You can then all teleport out there to the Dordrien Crypts.

Either way Coppertop wants to percure some Antivenom vials. I think they're the only things we can easily afford here.
At 50gp a vial, they'll grant the drinker a +5 to all poison checks for an hour.
The only spell that might be helpful would be Neutralize Poisonand those scross are 3rd level and cost 375gp apiece. Yes I can prepare said spell myself, but I've got a limited amount of spellslots for it.
At the least I request four vials of antitoxin (200 gp); more if the Party consents. Afterall it will be their butts on the line if things go poorly in the heat of battle.

OODM: The 1000gp is not per person, its for the group. You get 1000gps worth of supplies between everyone.
And Fangor, you guys can teleport tonight, but you wont have the supplies. It will take at least few hours to gather everything together.
Give me a list of stuff.

Tender's not impressed.
"200 advance each, on 5000! Wait! Don't tell me THAT'S for the group too! I'm not sure I want to risk my life for a measly 1000gp! I'd rather move abroad somewhere sunny where the Drow won't find me and leave y'all to it!!!"
{I vote anti-toxins and delay poisons}

"Well, take it or leave it. There are other heroes who would take that coin for this task. We do not have mush in the way of equipment here. Our mages and cleircs are tasked with rebuilding the defenses, not of the manafacture of items. I am afraid that is all we can spare. You will recive the other 4,000 when the taks is done"

My vote goes to Antitoxins as well.
Mal rolls his eyes. He had been accustomed to the quick one's retorts and skills, yet the display of naivity was more than he could handle. He turns to the thief, with a simple question.
"Ah, so the brave Tender wants to run away from the crypts so soon. And here I thought you had gotten past your fear of darkness. So, shall we go without you?"
Mal prepares to Teleport the first wave of people to the location. (Uh, I am still trying to figure out if he can Teleport 3 or 4 people along with him by level 10. I think it's 3, so just wanted to make sure.)

Go with any potions that can neutralise/slow down poison.

"Without me?" scowls Tender, pacing around the outside of the room.
"You wouldn't last long!" he quips, and pokes out his tongue.

{I'm of mixed opinion; I'd really like to get out there tonight before they can get out and about. On the other hand, having these last minute supplies would be quite benefitial methinks.}
5x Antivenom vials (250)
2x Neutralize Poison Scrolls (750)
If no one else speaks up, this is what we'll take. Waiting till morning if need be.
