Sample Return

The Pathfinders are interested in obtaining samples of certain creatures. Bringing the dead corpse of an Aberration, Magical Beast or Outsider in good condition will grant a reward.

Creature Type Price / HD XP / HD Reputation
Aberration 75 30 +1
Magical Beast 50 20 0
Outsider 100 50 +1

The base reputation gained is 1 / 6HD or part of the creature. They are especially interested in creatures of Thassilonian origin, so will pay double (Price and XP) for these, as well as reward +1 reputation.

They are only ever interested in one of each type of creature. Further samples of the same creature will not grant any reward.
