In The Meantime
Okay Dave, Brogg, and two zombies are hanging out just outside the Potion Guild fence. It looks like there are a few entrances into the main building once you get up there, but this gate is the only way to the building. Two guards keep you from entering through the gate.
Brogg, the ring is worth 1d6 x 10 gp. Subtract 4 from that for the flaming oil and there you go. Maybe I'll add some bonus spell info on the DiD ref page. I like the thief abilities there; don't forget Cinder that modifiers apply based on armor and DX.
You guys probably decided that if Cinder doesn't show up by 10 PM or a little afterwards, you'd go in for him.
So as you're waiting, you see a lot of rich people and people in robes entering the gate. Two such people catch your eye because you overhear them mention Master Vrill on the way in! They aren't obviously guildsmen... actually they look like priests. It's a man and a woman. The man is wearing banded mail, with a white tabard over it. He's got a long sword and a large shield. The woman is wearing a fancy dress, with a cloak and carrying a mace. They look like they're in their 30s, and they're holding hands. On the man's tabard is a large brown symbol... it looks kind of like a peanut? Or, maybe a... no... a turd? No that CAN'T be right. It's probably a peanut. The same ovaluar symbol is on a clasp on the woman's cloak. They're both clean, blond, and have sort of a religious look about them.
The man says "So do you remember what time Master Vrill said he would be done here?"
Woman: "The Guildmaster's declaration is at 7. I expect that good Master Gregory will be promoting his research for a couple hours afterwards. Then we'll likely dine at the ranch."
Man: "Yes, this declaration. Very interesting. Some special event that's part of the Guildmaster's Potions for the People project I believe."
Woman: "It's a nice thing for them, darling."
Man: "Hey, look over there. Some destitutes. Let us help them, my love."
Um, apparently they are referring to you guys. They walk on over. You're sort of surprised by this, and even more surprised when the woman pulls out 4 gp and hands each of you 1 gp from her purse. She smiles sweetly and says "I'm sorry for you... don't worry, things will get better." The man nods and says "Times are tough all around. But it's good you have each other. That's swell." The woman smiles at him and says "Just like us honey." They then give each other a kiss and walk into the Guild grounds. You hear the man say quietly to her "You know, that one guy looked just like a zombie."
