Sound perfect.
About Arc's money, I recall something around 250gps, but I'm willing to let you handle it the way you prefer.

About Van, it is settled then, he goes to the background after getting his novice trait. Since he is designed to become archdruid, he will be happy to be the Lady's forest keeper, and something to do with animals. I guess Van should go back to the Manor with Magian...

Daryen, I was wondering... Does Arc get these two new traits now or when he arrives back to the manor? I mean, could he use the weapon specialisation against the butterflies?

I like to make Trait acquisition during a "down time", but weapon specialization or Mastery takes effect immediately. However, unfortunately for Arc, the butterflies Disadvantage to hit makes all that irrelevant for this fight. So ... yes, he has the specialization/mastery but it won't matter.

Oh no! I was almost counting on the 3-6 successful hit rate... But I understand, and will wait for the battle to finish before updating.
Please do let me know, whenever you have time, if there is any XP points left for Arc after these 2 traits. Thx!

Now that the team arrived at the manor will have some 'down time'.
Arc left 4XP for later, and it has been some time since last XP review.
He is taking weapon specialization (8xp) and Sneaky (10xp)...
Depending on how many new XPs he gets, he may (or not) think of the Scout Prestige. So, I'll wait for your calculations on XP.

I thought Psybermagi "closed out" the XP calculations before he handed it over to me. So, for Arc and Aizashi, you each got 1 XP for the excursion with the butterflies. (You all solved the problem and got the girl out.)

If he didn't cover it, let me know!

It should all be on the character sheet in the history. Anything that Arc did that is not listed or pointed to there may need to be accounted for. @Cathamber take a look and if you see something missing let me know. Typically it is 1 XP per encounter or challenge overcome. I tend to be generous as PBP can be slow to advance otherwise

Ok, I checked by date, I hope I did it correctly. :)
Last XP update on the sheet was at the end of RL September. This would put Arc after the remnants escape and at the library 's rest with 4xp points left for future use.

After that, they met Woosaa (scout commander) and infiltrated the last remnant (with the pit fight, the dragon, the underground escape) and went to the manor (and saved the girl). These are the events for which to add xp.

I remember that Weapons Specialization uses up 8XP, and Traits uses up 10XPs. So I don't think Arc will have enough for the Sneaky trait (I ready erased it from his PC Sheet). I trust he does have enough for the bow specialization, and some more to safe for the future.

Future career path:
Get the Sneaky trait (prerequisite for the Scout Prestige)
Get the first Scout Prestige trait.

On the other hand, Sylvandur finished this last adventure to become veteran. He would get the Archdruid trait (calling a Grizzly Bear). And then he would ask the lady of the manor to be sent to guard one area of the surrounding forests until he is needed again... Please confirm if this is correct, so I can update his PC sheet.

Ordinarily, you can only take a Prestige Trait with XP. (I.e. it can't be one of the first three Traits chosen.) However, since Van is going off to be an NPC, we'll be a bit lenient and just let it ride so you can get him where you want to leave him more easily. If you ever pick Van up again, you'll have to have another "normal" Trait before picking another Prestige Trait.

Arc will wait for your review on pending XP (not in any hurry).
