Harvesting & Loot

Nagpa

The nagpa resembles a human with the head of a vulture and a hunched back. Its skin is shriveled, dry and gray. It smell potently of dust, bird droppings, and spoiled milk. Nagpas prefer long flowing robes, and most carry a staff of their own creation.

Most crafting items have an acronym associated with it, such as "DMG". These acronyms refer to specific guide books. For example, "DMG" refers to the "Dungeon Master's Guide".

This character usually carries: 1 Staff

1 Staff
[3 gp (quality: .5×, size: 1×, normally 5 gp)][4 lb.]
low quality made of oak wood

The tables below show how we determine an item's value and weight modifiers. The first table determines the item's value modifier based on its quality. The second table determines the item's value and weight modifiers based on the creature's size.

d100	% Chance	Quality	Value
1-2	% Chance: 2%	Quality: Superb	Value: 1.5×
3-5	% Chance: 3%	Quality: Almost New	Value: 1×
6-55	% Chance: 50%	Quality: Low Quality (poorly made, high use)	Value: 0.5×
56-65	% Chance: 10%	Quality: Terrible Quality (cracked, warped)	Value: 0.1×
66-100	% Chance: 35%	Quality: Destroyed	Value: 0×

Creature's size and its value and weight modifiers.

Size	Weight(x)	Value(x)	Note
Tiny	Weight(x): ¼×	Value(x): ¼×	Note: Tiny creatures often carry very small weapons & armor, too small for other creature.
Small	Weight(x): 1×	Value(x): 1×	Note: Small creatures tend to use smaller standard weapons, like daggers and shortswords, but it is the DM's discretion if the items are usable or have a modified weight/value.
Medium	Weight(x): 1×	Value(x): 1×
Large	Weight(x): 1×	Value(x): 1×	Note: Large creatures tend to use larger standard weapons, like greatswords and greatclubs, but it is the DM's discretion if the items are usable or have a modified weight/value.
Huge	Weight(x): 8×	Value(x): 2×	Note: The increase in value is for the raw materials (as the items are way too large to be useful).
Gargantuan	Weight(x): 15×	Value(x): 4×	Note: The increase in value is for the raw materials (as the items are way too large to be useful).

Nagpa
Meat

The meat of many monsters is considered vile and distasteful. Monstrosities and aberrations, in particular, may have tainted blood or rancid tasting meat. Dungeon Master's discretion.

This creature produces 10 pieces of meat, weighing a total of 40 lbs.

Random Roll: 2d6 = 10

Medium creatures produce 2d6 worth of meat.

The table below shows how much meat an inexperienced butcher may be able to harvest from a creature, especially after a battle may have ruined some of the meat (i.e. burned, frozen, poisoned, etc.). If a whole creature's carcass is brought to a butcher, the butcher may pay 4x the value rolled in the chart below for the carcass (if the butcher even WANTS this kind of creature - DM discretion). Of course, carrying a heavy carcass can be difficult, and the creature's bacteria that kept it alive will begin to ruin the meat, spoiling it within a day.

Beast Size	DC	Meat	Weight (x4)†	Expire ‡	Value (x2sp)⋆

† The weight of a raw piece of meat is 4 pounds. And one slab of meat (4 lbs.), can be used to make 1 dried ration (2 lbs.).
‡ Raw meat has a very short shelf-life, and will go bad within a day if it is not refridgerated or cured.
⋆ The table above uses a standard price of 5cp per pound for regular a piece of animal meat (such as cattle or deer). The value of meat can vary drastically, depending on the quality, rarity and the creature it is sourced from. For example, dragon meat could cost 10x more than standard livestock meat, while insect meat could cost only a copper or two per pound. A DM can decide if that is adequate, and if certain meat is worth more or less.
