Dredge locks eyes with Immerul, "We should begin our mission.  How do we notify Cranewing of our acceptance?"

Gander finally comes back after about a half hour. This should do it.  I made very few changes.  I added wording so that animal companions, familiars and the like do not need to sign.  However, they get their share of the treasure from the party member that summoned them.  I also added wording so that any hirelings or henchmen require a separate contract.  Next, the division of treasure.  I modelled this after one of my own contracts with a previous group.  First, all monetary treasure is to be divided as evenly as possible.  If it cannot be divided, the remainder goes into a party fund to be broken down later unless a party member has an objection.  In that case the party member could "buy" the item using his own funds.  For example, you find 700 gp and 2 rubies worth 100 gp each.  One party member could "buy" one of the rubies using 100 gp of his own funds.  That makes 800 gp and 1 ruby.  The 800 gp is divided and the last ruby is put into the general party fund.  Magical treasure is to be divided on a case-by-case basis by party consensus.  Some magical treasure will be obvious to who could use it the best.  Others will require a party decision.  Still others will be of no use at all and will go into the general party fund.  Last thing gives voting rights to all signed party members.  I've left it open for you to decide what happens to ties.

Gyrdian, my friend.  By signing this you are not giving up your freedoms.  You are guaranteeing the party is bound by the provisions of the contract.  By not signing, you cannot guarantee that the others will be so bound.  Plus, by not signing, you guarantee that you have no share of the treasure that's found.

Now, if I remember, in one of the groups I was in, we had one person that objected to signing contracts for religious reasons.  He also said that his loyalty was without question.  We thought, at that time, it was all right because one of the other party members vouched for him.  Found out later what his religion really was...
  Granny comes up and tugs on Gander's pants. I think some customers are leaving without paying.

Heh, what?  Come back you sons of a rabid squirrel and an owlbear.  Gander chases after them while casting an illusion of some guardsmen entering the inn.  Granny says, Tale takes 3 days to tell.  I doubt you have time.  Mr. Skolar's address is on notice.

OOC:  I provided a simple framework for a contract.  I'll let you guys hash out the actual details.  This can be done OOC though PMing.  Once you are done and the contract is finalized, you can post it in the OOC thread. Or not as the case may be.  It was a great role-playing opportunity in any case.

Cabor's eyes glaze over with all of the legal ramblings. Under his breath he mutters, "I think I prefer my societies with a bit less civility and a bit more... trusting."

Still grinning at Granny's ruse Cabor hops down off of his stool and stands ready to depart. He glances at Gander's antics and says, "I look forward to hearing the rest of his story when we return. He's certainly well-traveled for an innkeeper."

Gyrdian chuckles at the halfling. Well, if there's no other way around it, this at least is a solid contract. Gyrdian signs his name and stacds up. Hopefully you will learn the value of my word, and one day be able to accept that in place of a scroll. Take care to let nothing happen to that as well.

When you have finished and paid your debts, I will be waiting in front of the stables.
Gyrdian bows slightly and then deftly walks across the room and out the door.

Dredge puts a few coins on the table, finishes his water then stands and follows Gyrdian.

Immerul will carefully read over the contract, making sure that there are no changes Gander "Forgot" to mention. When satisfied, he puts the contract in a scroll case, pays his bill, and walks outside to rejoin the party.

Rolen pays and follows the rest, with his bear following him.

Cador drains the rest of his Rot Gut, climbs back up the stool to place the mug the table, and then follows Rolen outside.

Walking to Cranewing's home is without incident.  You see the normal evening activities under way.  Mothers calling to their children for supper, some teens play-fighting nearby, a panhandler picking up his earnings to head for a bar.  The home you are walking to is at the edge of the residential district.  Just out of the way to be somewhat private, but not so out of the way that it cannot be found by those seeking knowledge.  You see light in the windows as you approach the house.  As you get near the door, the door opens and another group of adventurers leave.  You overhear them talking about finding some interesting items on their job, but that's all you hear before they get out of earshot.  Silhouetted in the door frame is that of a teenage human girl, probably around 15 or 16 years of age.  Before she shuts the door she sees you and calls out, Are you here to see my father?

Dredge stops when the girl addresses the group.  "If you father is Parle Cranewing, then yes."
