Ash's smile grows wider as he shakes hands with the rest of the group as well, introducing himself. The warblade is excited to say the least. After having spent the last four months simply wandering from one place to another without any plans this is a welcome change in pace for him.
"To be honest, I think that this can teach me more than my studies with the Elan council ever could. They are far too old fashioned, I guess that's what happens when you live for eternity."
"Maybe, but remember that they possess knowledge that you'll never find out here. Make this little side trip short so that we can return as soon as possible."
The psicrystal sounds calmer, but there is still a hint of stubbornness in the telepathic message and Ash doesn't have the energy to argue with a construct, he has tried and failed, far too many times.
"This will surely be interesting, I must say that I'm glad to meet you all, I've been looking for an opportunity like this for some time now."

OOC: A hunt sounds fun, I'm on if the rest of you are, it shouldn't take more than a few posts and we all get to know each other a bit more.

Drones · 12th July 2009, 11:34 PM

Atarneil shakes Ash's hand but otherwise keeps to himself. He looks over the group that has gathered and tries to identify any potential allies for his final goal. The female looked like she would help if properly motivated and the one named Ash appeared to be eager to do anything. Atarneil knows too little about the other adveturers and reserves judgement for now.

OOC: A hunt sounds cool. I'm in.

Demonwolf91 · 13th July 2009, 09:15 PM

You have my bow. I'm always up for a hunt.

Voidrazor · 15th July 2009, 10:47 AM

Still hidden, possessing Marius' cloak, Haereka reaches out to Grabhar's mind, "It's hard to believe, but Marius has proposed something devilish. He'd like to have a have us hunt the new recruits to see if they pass muster. I assume you're in yes? He's just as keen to let then hunt us instead, so be sure to guide the conversation away from that possibility."

drakir_nosslin · 18th July 2009, 08:24 AM

After having introduced himself to the group, including the new recruits, Ash looks around for a free table.
"So, I guess that we'll be here for a while before setting out, so why don't you fil us newcomers in on what we are up against and what tactics you normally use. Just so we don't get in the way of each other."

hellrazor111 · 18th July 2009, 01:25 PM

"We don't really have any group tactics yet, Ash, as we met only yesterday." replies Seifer. "But personally, I am a blaster, of both arcane and eldritch, though I do have other spells available to me."

"As for what we're up against, I can explain. This 'monster' as they call him, was my friend, and he Woren, who are a race of tiger people. To start, the Woren are a warrior race, their culture is based around battle. Well a particular clan of Woren had, over generations managed to breed perfectly with weretigers, in order to create fast and brutal warriors for war, and as untiring workers in the villages." Seifer has drinks brought over for everyone before stating "Our target, my Woren friend, is of that Clan." Seifer pauses for a moment. "Though he was exiled for adopting me."

"I will repeat what I told the others. I prefer to attack quickly and decissively. If you see great advantage gained, I don't mind if you use area effects around me especially if they are fire-based. I am skilled at remaining unnoticed in ambush and when prey knows I'm there it's already too late. I'd appreciate it if you leave out ray effects as I move around a lot and dislike being hit by friendly fire. If you can create difficult terrain under enemies use it as soon as possible. Grabhar is flying and I'm not bothered by such trivia."

Mentaly:
"Haereka, do you see any advantage in revealing yourself to this group before the morning? If not, I'd like to keep an eye on them, and you can do it too especially since they're likely to separate. What say you?... ... on second thought, I'll sleep outside so I will not keep an eye on them. You, of course are free to do as you wish."

Vertexx69 · 18th July 2009, 05:22 PM

Grabhar, HP59/59, AC 34/F27/T21 Saves: F5 R9 W6

The spearmans eyes start to droop a bit. "I see no point in games today. They will be tested in battle tomorrow." He gets up and after a few words with the Innkeeper and a wink to the young barmaid he heads upstairs to "sleep".

drakir_nosslin · 22nd July 2009, 07:46 AM

Ash sips slowly on his new beer before saying anything.
I see, thanks for telling me, I hate to not knowing what I'm up against. I won't ask why you have chosen to go against your adoptive father and you do not need to answer me. As long as we have the right on our side I'm with you. Do you have any idea what he's afraid of, or vulnerable to? This is where we begin our fight, with the preparations!
The elan turns his attention towards Marius.
I like your tactics, and it will be interesting to watch you in combat. Me, I'm quite direct in my approach, I'm not much for sneaking around if you see what I mean. Not that I don't approve of such tactics, it's just that I'm not really good at it. Nah, I prefer to charge straight in at the enemy, it has worked well so far!
Ash grins widely and downs some more beer.

Neurotic · 22nd July 2009, 08:01 AM

"He should be vulnerable to silver as most of lycanthropes. I'm not sure if his background renders him more resistant to it then normal were-creature.

I was thinking that way to go would be to attract attention of his tigers and let them charge into the jungle after prey which would led them to ambush. I'm thinking he would pause, being inteligent and all and that would give me and Grabhar a chance at hitting him alone. Then we regroup and hit him with all we have."

Theroc · 22nd July 2009, 09:48 PM

OOC: I'll assume Seifer shakes Ardularra's hand.

Ardularra frowned at the caution against the use of ray spells, given her primary offensive weapon was such. She also noted the creature would be resistant to her rapier, indicating the closing with this being in melee was likely an unwise choice.

"My primary offensive weapon is a blast of what I can only surmise is arcane power... given some garments interfere with it's effectiveness. Aside from that, I can offer boons and healing to myself and allies... outside of battle, I can see magic as I desire... I can hold my own briefly in melee, though I'd much rather avoid such eventualities..." The Drow woman added to the conversation, giving the general ideas of her abilities, yet remaining non-descript for the most part.

hellrazor111 · 23rd July 2009, 08:12 AM

OOC:yes he did

"Well, the only thing he used to fear was transforming, he goes berserk when he does. Its ok, I'm not really secretive about myself, I chose to fight him because otherwise the village may be overwhelmed, if the government mobilizes he may retaliate with more ogres......and I hope he may reveal something to me if we kill him."

Seifer stops for a minute before saying.
"I like your idea Marius, but he lives under Yggdrasil, and as such he heals quickly, he'll be somewhat better by the time everyone regrouped. I may join you in a direct assault though."
Leaning over to Marius "Wheres Haereka?" he whispers.

After he gets an answer(from Marius or Haereka), Seifer walks over to the innkeeper and has a short conversation with him. When he returns he announces. "All of you will have rooms, free of charge. My "dad" is the innkeeper. Hes not too happy about it, but hes making loads off the other people."

Voidrazor · 23rd July 2009, 09:22 AM

Haereka continues her concealed observation of the newcomers, and replies telepathically to Marius and Seifer in turn.

To Marius, "I'll be happy to look in on them. But unfortunately I won't be able to maintain anything like constant surveillance throughout the night."

To Seifer, "I'm here. Do you need anything dear?"

Drones · 24th July 2009, 03:30 AM

Atarneil watches the whole conversation and carefully files away any useful information. He notes that he needs to obtain silvered arrows for his bow. Also, he would have to be carefull with his spells, as friendly fire was not something he would like to engage in. Realizing that his turn to speak had come, Atarneil says, " My speciality is long range combat, so i'll have to hang back in order to be most effective. Also,i have some skill in providing healing to an extent."

To Seifer: "Where is my room because, if we are not leaving immediately, i must rest."

hellrazor111 · 24th July 2009, 03:15 PM

"You fives rooms are upstairs, first 3 doors on the left and the last one on both sides." Answers Seifer.

"Would you travel to my home with me? Since your remaining hidden, use my blade. If you would rather stay, we can talk later" He thinks to Haereka
"I'll be back shortly." He announces the the group.

Neurotic · 24th July 2009, 04:03 PM

"I'm going to secure some provisions for the conflict. Back soon." announces Marius and goes out.

hellrazor111 · 3rd August 2009, 01:18 AM

'Cmon people, En's been down before, lets get back to the game.

drakir_nosslin · 3rd August 2009, 10:15 AM

Seeing the rest of the group break up, Ash stands as well.
"I'll go freshen up on my sword practice, it was a while since I used it now." The elan stands and heads for the back door.
"I'll see you all later."

Theroc · 3rd August 2009, 06:16 PM

Ardularra nods and rises.

"I will go to my quarters and prepare for tomorrow's expedition..."

And with that, she turned to make her way towards her assigned quarters.

OOC: Hellrazor, how do you want to handle the Pact Magic? RP out the creation of the seal and whatnot? There are many ways of handling them, and I wanted to clarify with you how you wanted to deal with it before I delved into it.

hellrazor111 · 5th August 2009, 03:19 AM

We can just RP the contact and contest of wills. I'll let you do describe most of the rest.
