OK couple things that upon review weren't handled correctly:

Expanded spell book: you prepare dailies and utility powers each day (as old school) the expanded spell book adds an extra daily of every level you can cast.

Death and dying:
0 hp: save vrs dying each turn
1-9 slip closer (3 strikes)
10-18 no change
19-20 spend a surge (grats your feeling better)

Stand up : move action no mention of provoking

Second wind : grants +2 bonus to defense

Rituals: component costs vary with spell they are generally not interchangeable. Type of component depends on skill keyed to ritual.

Ranged and area attacks provoke (dragon breath)

If you read this far now you know:
Total xp reward 1450/5 = 290.

Whether there are ghosts in that house is not for me to say! But, there are far more dangerous things than ghosts.

XP:
1300 /4 = 375

Grand total 665.

Inspection of the goods
+1 amulet of protection (silver tree pendant)
+2 bracers of mighty striking
+1 ironwood wicker armor ( treat as barkskin hide +1)

Details on Barkskin Armor
| +1 AC, Minor Action; additional +2 AC until end of battle, reduce this bonus by one each time creature is hit. So it can be treated as +1hide armor with bennies.

of course the dagger:
life drinker+1 (can be used as an implement if you roll like that)

The bone case had a String of peals (there is a gem market have at it.)

A clarification: While the dragon bits arent useful as a substitute component for general rituals etc they may well be useful as material components in the creation of certain magic items. Creativity on the part of the player would be necessary. While the small stature of the beast may not be suitable for a suit of armor, bones may reasonably work for the basis of rings or implements (wands or rods or perhaps daggers) enough skin may be present for the creation of a belt or boots. In any case these items would obviously have to tie in with the nature of the beast (acidic) and either enchanted by either someone with the appropriate rituals or commissioned.

Additionally review of the rules indicate that immediate interrupts are one per round only. This has some bearing on marked opponents who shift or attack other targets.

I've got a rule question:

On page 78 of the PHB, there is a level 2 utility power called "Boundless Endurance" that I'm thinking about taking as I level my character up. It says, "You gain regeneration 2 + your Constitution modifier when you are bloodied."

My question: Does this mean that the regeneration only lasts while I am bloodied, so that once the regeneration increases my hit points above the "bloodied" range, I lose the regeneration? Or does it just mean that I can't use this power until I become bloodied, but once I've used the power, the regeneration lasts until the end of the encounter?

When you expend the daily power as a minor action, you assume the "Boundless Endurance" stance. This stance lasts until the end of the encounter, unless you take up another stance.

As long as you are in the Boundless Endurance stance, you regenerate while you are bloodied, and you don't regenerate while you are not bloodied.

It's also worth noting that Boundless Endurance is a Stance, and so conflicts with Rain of Steel, Defensive Training, and Unyielding Avalanche (among other powers).

You can use the power before you are bloodied if you want... but it won't actually do anything until you become bloodied, at which point you will start regenerating. If you regenerate enough to become unbloodied, you'll stop regenerating... and if you're subsequently bloodied again, you'll regenerate again.

Until the end of the encounter, or you use another Stance power. Or are K/O'ed cause then you arent in any stance..

Helpful?

Weapon Description- Maximum (enchant lvl)

Masterwork    (8)
Exceptional    (15)
Superior          (25)
Legendary       (30+)

Each successive category is equivalent to +1damage. This is a non-magical craftsmanship bonus. If the item becomes enchanted the enchantment bonus overrides the craftsmanship bonus. (Don’t let the apprentice enchant the life’s work of a legendary swordsmith.)

Xp total 2675. Everyone bring 2 copies of your lvl 3 character sheets next time we play.

From what I understand 2 swords were left in the tombs?

Post your character's plan in your thread. Feel free to start a discussion in the post session thread to rp out what you want to do to handle meeting back up etc the thread and be worked out after you decide what each character wants to do... Apparently Theren fell down the shaft knocking himself unconscious...Im sure his balance was off from his previous fall.

Identify Magic Item/ ritual : 5 minutes

* DC: DC 20 + one-half the item’s level. You must be able to see the item. You must make a successful Arcana check to sense the presence of magic within the item before you can make any checks to identify it.

* Success: You identify the item’s enhancement bonus, power, or property.

* Failure: You can’t try to identify the item again until after a short rest.
