Background

With her crossed eye, it was always going to be difficult for Raghild's parents to wed her off. At the advanced age of 23, an old shepherd Kotkell brought a meagre dowry down off the hills. Her father was delighted, and Raghild finally won a toothless and foul-smelling husband of her very own.

Kotkell didn't survive that winter. He was found by his brother, frozen solid on the slopes. With Kotkell's wandering eye, rumours started, of course, and Raghild eventually fled. Half-starved in Dragonscar, she learned how to scrape a living off the leavings of society.

Raghild had something of a talent for stealing pies off window lintels and this got her noticed. A gang of ruffians put her to good use and together they pulled off a pretty profitable job. The gang dispersed but Raghild had learned to like the feel of gold on her fingers. She craves more.

Raghild is a cousin to Hrolf Fairhair, Zossi's retainer

Notes

Bow & 20 arrows: 30 cn Bola: We decided to count these as part of the misc. weight like slings, IIRC Polearm (Poleaxe): 150 cn Mace: 30 cn 2 Daggers: 20 total cn weight Leather Armor: 200 cn weight Misc. Equipment: 80 cn weight

Total: 510 cn weight (90'/30'/90' movement)

Oops, I need to add in the coins you're carrying. 24+510=534. Still same move rate. At 600 cn weight carried you slow down to 60'/20'/60'. You'd have to pare back to 400 cn weight or less to regain the 120'/40'/120' move rate, which is the fastest rate available to characters. At 801-1600 cn weight one moves at 30'/10'/30'. PCs can't carry more than 1600 cn weight.

a)Deposit it indirectly via V. Alfkin who would charge you a modest fee b) Buy gems & jewelry (more portable) c) Hire someone to take it to the monastery d) Loan it to a noble and hope he pays you back with interest e) Invest it in a merchant venture. f) Suggest something else? I'm probably amenable to most reasonable suggestions.
