Not quite sure what is is you're after. Are you concealing information, so that it remains secret? (Wouldn't blame you for doing so, just want to know if it's that or a comprehension issue on my part, likely the latter.)

But I'll focus on this:

Just a percentage of the entire loottable or, specific loot? The latter of course being a bit more involved.

$npc->RemoveItem ($itemid, <quantity>);

In the EVENT_DEATH, would accomplish that, though it (was) unreliable the last time I toyed with RemoveItem, when in EVENT_DEATH

I'm thinking setting entity variables may be helpful here, but again, I don't believe I'm grasping your goal and the requirements that goal has to be met under, entirely.
