Victor Shaw's Tsunami Chest
Victor Shaw's Tsunami Chest was a protected time-cache left beneath Aleklot's Rest after Victor had already cleared the dungeon in another timeline with Trixie and Exuba. The chest's graffiti pointed back to Maine's old tsunami disaster, used TSUNAMI as its password, and became the party's main source of Victor-linked loot before the Lawful audit.[1]

Overview
Victor Shaw's Tsunami Chest was a protected time-cache left beneath Aleklot's Rest after Victor had already cleared the dungeon in another timeline with Trixie and Exuba. The chest's graffiti pointed back to Maine's old tsunami disaster, used TSUNAMI as its password, and became the party's main source of Victor-linked loot before the Lawful audit.[1]
How to use this reference
Step 2
Use it to understand the post-dungeon split between declared loot, retained party gear, surrendered items, and Morgan's hidden Ring of Absorption.[2]
Protected Time-Cache
Description
The chest was not ordinary dungeon salvage. Victor Shaw had previously cleared the dungeon during a time-travel mission with Trixie and Exuba, then left a protected cache for the party to find later. Its markings teased Maine's tsunami history and signed off with Victor's particular mixture of affection and insult.[3]
Known Cache Items
Description
The cache included Clean-Step Thieves' Leather, the Ring of Absorption, Assorted Poison Vials, Victor's Well-Used Disguise Kit, the Knife of the Cardinal Carver, the Clear Mind Token, the Minor Acid Ward Charm, and the Steady Step Band. The live loot packet and story notes should be preferred over older item-card variants when they conflict.[4]
Lawful Declaration
Description
Corin Scorn Slatebadge audited the haul under Zone of Truth. The group declared most items and paid the required Lawful fees, but the Ring of Absorption was kept off the record when Ash's Steady Step Band was presented as the recovered ring.[5]
Party Distribution
Description
After the audit, Maine kept the Clear Mind Token and Victor's disguise kit, Jonah kept the Knife of the Cardinal Carver, Ash kept the Steady Step Band, and Morgan later received the hidden Ring of Absorption back from Maine. The remaining declared cache items were surrendered or left party-unassigned after the audit.[6]
Not the Dragon Hoard
Description
Victor's Tsunami Chest and the Castro-linked dragon-lair treasure are adjacent in the Aleklot's Rest aftermath, but they are different hauls. The chest points to Victor Shaw's time-cache. The void gear, dragon-combat rewards, and Castro-linked equipment point to the lair and its forces.[7]
