I get some nifty stuff.
Changelings can copy their party members' skills/powers.

:O
Then you're gonna love my 8th level feat choice, Doom. It's a new variation on the ol' Jack of All Trades.
Bard of All Trades
Gain a +3 feat bonus to all untrained skill checks.
The first Paragon feat I'm likely to take at level 11:
War Wizardry
Attacks versus allies take a -5 penalty and all damage done to allies is halved.
There are currently 23 different Paragon Paths available to me, thanks to multiclassing.

True. Unfortunately, my primary means of emergency locomotion is teleportation. I still chose to take the protective Shield utility over the quicker Expeditious Retreat. I don't wanna die and honestly the more time spent in the maze the better.
I did opt out of my Wizard's Escape in favour of Fire Shield though.

I'm fairly certain we looted it, but we were so distracted by things that we didn't bother asking about the items.

Hmmm. I don't remember the crown being looted. But I may have missed someone saying they did. I thought because it was giving off a necromantic charge that no one touched it.
The sword was broken. The blade stuck in the creatures head (and crown) and only the handle and a busted piece of the blade were in the hand of the mummified man who slayed the vampire.

I think we still looted the crown but never tried it out BECAUSE of its necrotic charge. Given that we were looking to spend the night and thought that we may have been attacked at any moment (given Assrack's propensity for making undead crawl out of the walls in these tombs) we were pretty preoccupied with our own safety at the time.

I have a suggestion for Grendmir that he may not have considered. I thought of this while playing one of my Tuesday night characters, a warforged fighter.
Consider getting a ranged weapon, even a really cheap one like a sling or hell, a handful of rocks.
Why?
You can use your mark, Combat Challenge on a hit OR a miss. There may be situations where it's beneficial to mark someone from far away, even just to give that target a -2 to attack any allies who might be nearer, if not directly encourage that target to recklessly approach you.
I realized this when my party came into combat against a team of halflings, one of whom was sniping from a treetop. We had our hands full with the ones on the ground, so I decided to huck a rock at the sniper. I missed due to low Dex and improvised ranged weapon penalties, but he had a -2 to ranged attack everyone that turn until the party could deal with him more directly.

I have my trident. The problem is having to waste turn elements to switch weapons around.

I meant, switching between it and my axe. I gotta pull things out, putting things away, etc.

You still got 12 hours. :biggrin:
Pull out the Monster Manual. Find the last page in it, and find a random number generator that lets you put in a "from - to". Put in the first monster to the last monster's page, and let it go! Then give us that monster.

I have a choice between 2 feats to take. Both of 'em are pretty awesome.
By the way, here's my loot:
Robe of Contingency +2
+2 AC
(Daily - Healing, Teleportation) Immediate Reaction. Use this power when you are bloodied and an attack damages you. Teleport 6 squares and you can spend a healing surge.
