Important question for:
@Muskrat @TetNak @Wbweather @Boronind

We each have 1 Treasure. Telurin is buying goods to trade with the Dunlendings (either during the Fellowship Phase or Adventure Phase). If anyone wants to take a risk, and pool their Treasure, we can buy more and have a chance for a greater return.

Let V know if you want to put your 1 point of Treasure toward this.

Depends what we can do with it. Aravule would be more apt to use it to rebuilt Tharbad in some way. Or save it to hire Dunlendings or others.

That's fine with me. Mechanically, spending our Treasure to rebuild Tharbad should be the same as raising Standing. If we do get a return, we also have the option to split it up to do what each of us likes. However, in the short term that's how I'd have Telurin spend T anyway. (In the long run when we're back to being centered around Rivendell, I have ideas for other reasons for needing T).

Oddly, for a Treasure Hunter, Halleth doesn't care that much about wealth. (The treasure her cares about are lost artifacts of Numenor and Arnor.) And OOC I don't find trading very engaging, so I'll pass.

Well, as Tet said, we'd use the Treasure to hire Dunlendings or to help the cause in Tharbad. But if it doesn't make sense ICly that's fine... if Halleth would do that for the reasons given fine. Just wanted to mention the opportunity.

Just need to hear from Wb and Boronind.

Perfect.

@Boronind is the last one, and @Tetnak needs to confirm yay or nay.

Invest your Treasure in the trade, or not?

I want to use it to hire Dunlendings primarily for retaking/securing Tharbad, and secondarily for our expedition. I won't fund the expedition personally.
