[@Shovel] [b]Buford the Scout[/b] has the following stats:

[indent]STR 15* || +2
DEX 15* || +1
CON 13 || +1
INT 12 || 0
WIS 10 || 0
CHA 11 || 0[/indent]

If he would like, he can reduce his cha to 9 and int to 10 to increase his primary attributes, meaning he gains +10% xp instead of +5%. This change is small and likely not too noticeable either way, but I'd thought I'd give the option.

[center][h3]Buford the Scout joins the Party![/h3][/center]
[@Shovel][@Duthguy]
Buford and Daniel haggle for a while, and Daniel seems amenable to the bonus in treasure in exchange for first pick on magic items, so long as future party members are ok with it. Daniel may agree to the 10% increase in cut now if he wishes to, and the deal can be paused when new members join the party.

[center][b]CHOICE: Agree to this deal, temporarily?:[/b][/center]  
[b]Example - Current Treasure Cut of a hypothetical 1000gp:[/b]
[indent]429 gp, 3 sp, 2 cp - Daniel the Man at Arms
353 gp, 8 sp, 6cp - Buford the Scout, gains first look at Magical Items
78 gp, 3 sp, 1 cp - Wily Natters
58 gp, 7 sp - Old Man Smith
39 GP, 1 SP, 4 CP - Irene
39 GP, 1 SP, 4 CP - Flint[/indent] 

[b]Buford the Scout[/b] looks around him. Now that he is an [b]Adventurer,[/b] he can have up to 4 henchman himself. A couple of latecomers  arrive, but the pickings are starting to dwindle.
