==To Be Destroyed==

[[Treasure in Transit]]

==Freshly Acquired==

[[Freshly Acquired Treasure]]

==Wolf Keep==

*[[Party Treasury]]

===Magic Items===
*A gem, known among magicians as yedrium. It can be used to hold a charge of magical energy for an extended period of time before discharging it in a controlled manner; the gem glows slightly when containing the energy, dimming and crumbling to dust when discharged
*Battleaxe +1, forged from curious metal
*Pole arm +1 
*A +1 knife, razor sharp and with a handle wrapped in rough leather. It bears a vague resemblance to the knives that fisherfolk use to clean and gut their catch. Wielder can ''water breath'' as per the spell once per day.
*Three ounces of Crocodile Tears
*Potions
**Animal Control
**Diminution x2
**Dragon Control
**Fire Resistance
**Gaseous Form x2
**Invulnerability
**Levitation
**Oil of Slipperiness
**Philter of Love x2
**Polymorph
**Sweetwater

===Non-magic items===
*Four doses of Firesand (a handful of fine black powder, possessing a pungent odor)
*Masterwork sword
*Masterwork shield
*The non-magical weapons are all ancient, and of unusual stylings that suggest they were fashioned in a different land. All appear to be of extremely high quality, and would likely sell for 500 gold apiece. There are three swords, five spears, a battle axe, three warhammers, and a mace.
*A pair of wicked looking handaxes with hafts of polished ebony and steel heads that shine dully in the sunlight.  The handaxes are masterwork and balanced for throwing, with a +1 bonus to hit and an increased range of 10' (base).  At a guess the twinned hand axes would be worth in the neighborhood of 600 gold if sold as a set.
*Five ounces of Crocodile Tears
*Three war-horns: a battered old war-horn, fashioned of bronze, an ogre's battle horn -- this one made from a yellowed and cracked tusk of some huge beast, bound in copper bands, and a third horn, taken from the third ogre band
*Five jars of a rich purple dye
*A score of abalone shells, perfect in shape, size and color, rippling with incandescence. Nathet believes that these would be ideal ingredients for the production of potions of water breathing, most likely enough to make at least one, maybe two.
*12 statues of creatures [https://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?780003-IC-II-ACKS-The-Wilderlands-of-Absalom&p=20407667#post20407667 turned to stone by a gorgon].
*19 stone of red ichor from a salamander, worth 1100 gp

==The Candle==
*A ring of metal that looks like the key Karag saw the shaman use on the entrance to the mummies tomb.
*A second large circular key, resembling the one that opened the mummies' tomb
*A large brass key from the painting-and-pit-trap room on sublevel 10 of the Candle
*3x Carreg Duw stones
*A farseer similar to the one Rabanus possess, but made from the giant fang of some terrible monster, and chased in gold and silver (Eyes of the Eagle)

===Magical Library===
[[Magical Library]]

==Junction Warehouse==
*Storage Capacity: 10,000/10,000

=Setting=
After a century the forces of Chaos have begun to subside and weaken and the Realm of Man has begun to expand again, to retake territory lost in the past hundred years and even expand past its original borders. The Five Princes of the Inner Kingdoms have called for all able-bodied adventurers to venture into the outlands, to drive the barbarians and humanoids and abominations out and establish new domains for Law and Order. The adventurers have a charter from the Scarlet Prince, granting them ten year monopolies on any trade routes opened with friendly territories and the ability to draw upon the population of the Inner Principalities for labor, for skilled craftfolk, for soldiers and for settlers. Of course, the adventurers could also do it on their own and attempt to establish their own domains without owing fealty to anyone. They also have a map, a century out of date and likely inaccurate; the incursion of Chaos has warped the landscape in strange ways in addition to the more mundane monsters wreaking havoc on the towns and villages beyond the River Sarn.

The seasons are like Philly, approximately three months long each, but the winters are much colder. There may very well be a supernatural reason for this -- perhaps even connected with the presence of Chaos.

==Deepwater==
Deepwater is a domain with four hexes: Wolf Keep (13.39), Modnar's Folly (12.39), xxx, and xxx.  The stronghold value is 99,600 gp.  Due to the Mirror of Scrying, the domain is effectively four hexes in size.  The Sarn river runs through it, with the Amanzici river merging into the Sarn just below Wolf Keep.

===Wolf Keep===
The land revenue for this hex is 7.5.
The land is probably not that great for farming, at least not much past a narrow band on either side of the river. It is, however, ideal land to raise goats, sheep or even cows (again, think west Texas terrain). Fish and fowl are plentiful in the river -- or will be again, now that the trolls are gone. There are copper, silver, and agate mines -- and the possibility of quarrying sandstone.  What makes it really valuable, however, is the location of the Keep for controlling (and taxing, potentially) river traffic.

==Property in Hob==
The Company owns [https://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?765089-IC-ACKS-The-Wilderlands-of-Absalom&p=19947314#post19947314 three buildings] in Hob.  The whole of the waterfront of Hob is approximately a half-mile long. The two waterfront buildings stand about a quarter-mile apart.  There is a tannery at the southern edge of the village, with a blacksmith's forge located nearby. The building with the empty lot is in the center of the waterfront; the brick building on the northern edge. The third building is slightly to the north of the center of the waterfront, set back two blocks. Of the three buildings it is in the most "residential" part of town.   
*A two story adobe building, set back from the waterfront by several blocks. Like many of the buildings in Hob it is showing signs of neglect and age. It is about one thousand square feet in total, with a small cellar of about three hundred square feet. Purchased for 500 gp, and repaired for another 500 gp.
*A wooden single story structure of about six hundred square feet. Acquired for 200 gold and repaired for another 50 gp.  Also acquired a side-lot that hasn't been built on yet for 75 gp. The lot is currently filled with nets, scraps of wood, floats and other riverine detritus. It measures roughly forty feet square.
*An adobe brick building of about eight hundred square feet.  Acquired for 250 gp, repaired for 100 gp.

[[Notable Events and Meetings]]

==Mr. Hand, our Factor==
Mr. Hand will be able to do the following for you:

*Recruit basic mercenary troops.
*Sell magic items, provided he has them in, ahem, hand.
*Find buyers and sellers for trade goods.
*Retain specialists.
*Arrange for supply trains to venture out, *assuming the infrastructure is set up*. If there's not a PC or henchmen with the train, they won't want to travel through uncleared hexes.

He comes with an office and warehouse with a capacity of 10,000 stones worth of goods/treasure. Assume that 1,000 stones worth can be stored in a vault-like space and the rest of the storage is simply locked. The warehouse/office will also be guarded by two veteran crossbowmen 24 hours a day. I need y'all to tell me if you want him based in Junction or Rhea's Ford. If he is based in Junction the above will cost you 500 gp a month (assume the 1st month is already paid); he will be closer to the frontier but in a smaller market. If based in Rhea's Ford the above will cost you 750 a month (again, assuming the 1st month is already paid); he will be farther from the frontier but in a larger market town.

Note that the above cost includes payments on the warehouse and the salaries of Mr. Hand and the guards, but does not include the cost of recruiting troops, IDing magic items and so forth. There will be the ability to ID magic items in Junction, but the sale of them will be limited to Rhea's Ford.

==Other Adventuring Parties==

Arwyn's Band

*They are led by Arwyn the Acrimonious, a she-warrior of some renown. The party counts amongst its members a mage, a cleric of a deity I have never heard of and cannot pronounce the name of, two rangers, a bard for singing Awyn's praises and a cloaked, silent man who's duties and abilities I have been unable to determine, and a score of so mercenaries, cooks and so forth. I do not know there goal, only that I observed them purchasing furs and blankets and other cold-weather gear. Therefore, I can only conclude they are either heading north, to where winter still holds the world in an icy embrace, or west, towards and perhaps beyond Rocky Peak.
*Secondmonth, Sixthyear: Arwyn the Acrimonious and her band of adventurers stumbled into Junction just as winter was setting in, laden down with treasures and artifacts gleaned from what many have claimed is a city perpetually frozen in ice, far to the north. The notoriously reticent warrioress has refused to answer any and all questions, but she and her comrades have been preparing for what looks to be another cold weather voyage.

*Her brother is stricken by a mysterious curse that prevents him from speaking the truth. They had heard tales of a spring somewhere to the southeast, that has the power to cleanse one who drinks of it of all such afflictions. They were unable to find it, however.  They stopped in Pevin, of all places, for a week of R&R but no idea where they went afterward.
*Secondmonth, Sixthyear: A band of bandits to the south, led by a one-eyed bandit queen, has become emboldened over the last few months of fall, striking the occasional caravan or exploration party venturing south of the Scarlet Principality, and even venturing within its borders to raid outlying villages. The road connecting the Principality to the bladedancer monastery at Eros has become even more dangerous than usual thanks to the depredations of the one they call 'Sanke One-eyed'!

[http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?765089-IC-ACKS-The-Wilderlands-of-Absalom&p=19754636#post19754636 Bribras the Bold]

*The trio claim no injuries, and have none visible, apart from the scratches and welts one might accumulate from running recklessly through the undergrowth, fleeing for one's life. Two of the three, Tika and and Isum, are both clad in chain mail; Tika wears a sword in a scabbard and has a short bow slung over her shoulder, while Isum has a one-handed axe and shield. The third member, Bribras the Bold, wears banded plate under a crimson surcoat and carries a war hammer and shield. Prominently displayed on a chain around his neck is stylized horses's head in profile with a twinkly ruby for an eye. To Hira's eye the three appear to be relatively inexperienced, at least less so than her employer. They may or may not be as seasoned as she is.

*"Look," says Bribras, "we're new in town, drawn like half the people here by the promise of the wealth to be found out here on the frontier. I am, if I may modestly say, a rather important person back east, and my comrades are as dear to me as my own brothers and sisters. I will be willing to pay five hundred gold alcedes to whomever is able to recover the petrified remains of my three companions, so that we may restore them to life."

*Aside from Sanke One-eye's crew, there are another two bands: the Free Folk, who hang out mostly to the southeast, and the Redfoot Gang, who mostly work the other side of the Sarn (from the Candle). As far as can be told, the bandits mostly survive by robbing isolated communities, merchant caravans and scavenging amongst the ruins of the ancient ones. There are also a few beastman tribes roaming the llano, as the ogres call it. Some gnolls, a group of sun-hardened orcs that call themselves the Rock Spiders, and some of the other species such as cerves.

[https://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?780003-IC-II-ACKS-The-Wilderlands-of-Absalom&p=20121251#post20121251 Jade Eagles]

*The adventurers [Dawulf] has with him are a company that call themselves the Jade Eagles. Harn's heard some about them; they mostly stay up north, in the forestlands, and range as far as the steppes north and east of Rhea's Ford, where Qutai's folks come from. They've made a name for themselves as pathfinders and caravan guards and, from his brief interaction with them, they seem to be a serious group of men and women, intent on doing their job and preparing for the trip.
