Death of the Dragons

[Voidrazor]

Well, um, magister Karamon is it? I'm not sure if I can answer your questions. I just envisage what I want to happen and it does. So I guess that means my abilities are mental, or just plain innate. Anyway, you probably don't have to worry about accidently hitting me when you can't see me. I won't be in the line of fire."

Telepathically to Alariass

I've never tried to boost somebody else's powers before. But yes I can mindspeak, so maybe it would work. We'll have to try it some time.

Hareka turns to Grabhar with a grin before he leaves, "Not a shy one are you? My neckline and I would rather, er, shade our glory, or what have you, than get clawed or bitten or otherwise violently ravaged. But yes, that is a good look on you."

She then looks over the curiousities on the table and shrugs, "I don't really know how to use this stuff. Except for the crystal, you affix to a weapon right. But life drinking? I don't think so. Seifer dear, would you be willing to just owe me a favor?"

[Neurotic]

Too much arcane items. I'll take the weapon crystal if everyone agrees.

[Halford]

Alariass nods to himself seemingly,

"Well my new companions I suggest we ready ourselves for the morrow."

With that he departs and makes his way back into the Inn. Once there he takes a room and spends the night as usual thinking and flicking through the well thumbed pages of his prayer book.

[Vertexx69]

Grabhar returns to the Inn and spends the rest of the sultry young barmaid's shift whispering honey sweet nothings into her ear until business starts to die down. He then retires to his room with the barmaid in tow, much to the chagrin of the barkeep who meticulously picks the evenings payment off the bar.

[hellrazor111]

"Goodnight, see you soon." Seifer say as people take an item and leave

Once everyone has left but Hareka, Seifer says "Please have a seat." Motioning to the cot. It is surprisingly soft, like feathers. "You wished to talk to me?" starts putting the left over items back in the crate.

[Neurotic]

Marius went toward the inn with the others, but got lost somewhere along the way. He found himself cosy log to sleep under, covered himslef with his voluminous cloak and promptly fell asleep.

[Voidrazor]

After the others head out, Haraeka flashes Seifer a smile, half sheepish, half sultry. "I really don't have a particular favor in mind. But I'm sure I'll be able to come up with something, while we're out, travelling under th stars. Is that OK?"

After a bit more flirting Haraeka wishes Seifer a good night, gets a meal and rom at the inn.

[Neurotic]

Waking at first light, Marius finds some berries for light breakfast, exercises for short while and meditates on draconic might inherent in his teachings.

Then he starts toward the inn hoping the others are already up and knowing for sure that at least an abomination is awake.

OOC: Haereka might take something and let somebody else use it (such as scrolls or something) and 'have IOU note' within the party.

[Vertexx69]

The spearsage rises silently before dawn. He gently untangles his limbs from the exhausted maiden, still unconscious from the evenings festivities and pulls the blanket up over her slender soft form. He grabs his gear as quietly as he can and heads out for his morning training before breakfast.

In a grassy clearing just to the west of town, he spends an hour whirling his spear about in a complicated series of patterns and thrusts. Throughout the routine, the spear changes length several times from short to standard to long, while he alternates fighting from the ground and executing a dizzying array of swoooping dives and aerial charges.

After bathing in the river that divided the clearing, he returns to his room, placing a small bunch of wildflowers and a couple peices of fruit on the small stool next to the matress by the girl's quietly snoring form. He brushes a strand of her long dark hair from over her eyes, with his large hand, just before the roosters in the village start to wake everyone else. She opens her eyes to his warm expression and very nearly purrs with contentment.

"I think its time for the day to start my pet. I saw these in the field and they reminded me of your sweet scent. So I brought them so you could have something wild to remember me by. I'll be away for a while, but I'll find you when I get back to conitinue our... discussusion at even greater length."

Sharing the craving to just crawl back into bed with eager young woman, he shakes the lust from his eyes and heads down into the common area again to meet up with the others. The smell of cooking food is a welcome distraction to replace the other scent still strong in his nostrils. The morning light pouring in through the open windows invigorates him further, and he takes a seat at the bar where a steaming plate of food set in front of him which he devours without any hestitation. Waiting for the others to finish their morning rituals, and join him here before they set out.

When Haraeka comes in and joins him, Grabhar leans over toward her with a devilish grin.

@ Haereka

"I would have invited you to join us last night, but I remember what that hide of yours actually feels like. Its not something I'd imagine a young girl could... appreciate the way I can."

[hellrazor111]

[Haraeka] You and Seifer talk while he escorts you to the inn. He wishes you a good night and a 'see you in the morning, making sure you get the free room.

The early morning is quite chilly, and a light fog rises up from the river. The inn is busy even now, with people eating before going on with their day.

As you head down to breakfast (or enter the inn)you see Seifer sitting at one of the tables, rocked back with his feet proped up and a mug in his hand. Across from him is a figure armed in adamentine.

[Neurotic]

Good morning, gentleman.

How are you today?

OOC: Add "and ladies" to greeting if any are present when Marius enters

[Halford]

Alariass comes down at a conventional time, though of course he has not slept, and weighs up the new figure with Seifer.

"Morning all, I trust you slept well and are ready to deal with those pesky cats. Ah, Seipher care to introduce your companion?"

OOC: What kind of armor does he wear, what kind of weapons are visible, does he have a holy symbol, etc.

[Voidrazor]

Haereka saunters out of her room fashionably late, catching Alariass' question at the top of the stairs. She pauses, suddenly cautious, waiting for the answer.

This could be a problem, appearing and committing to an identity before gauging the other players was sloppy. Worse, Seifer's ability to somehow see her, when she was both invisible and hiding, was both remarkable and dangerous.

The moment stretching in her mind, Haereka calms herself. She rationalizes, Yes, murphy's Law would dictate that this newcomer is some sort of divinely connected religious zealot, which would, of course, ruin everything. But surely, the actual chances of such a thing being the case were quite small.

[Neurotic]

If the figure in adamantine is War change above greeting to:
Good morning gentlem...

War, good morning! What are you doing so far south?

OOC: just a reminder, Marius and War know each other from the temple...

As Alariass comes Marius nods, but offers no warm greetings.

[Vertexx69]

Grabhar picks up his plate and joins the others at the table now that everyone seems to be congregating arouns Seifer. He nods greeting to all as he digs back into his food, taking great pleasure in every mouthful. The lovely young maid comes rushing down the stairs from his room, and blushes when she sees the spearman still at the inn.

His plate cleaned, grabhar turns his attention to those he will be setting out with soon. "So Seifer, who's your metallic mate here? He's obviously a wiley warrior of some sort, but doesn't smell...local." He adds with a sniff and a winning smile, not a speck of food has been left anywhere on his face. "Are we expecting any other new... hmmm faces before we head out?"

[hellrazor111]

This is War, a newly met friend. He's a paladin from the dragon temple.

As War looks to you, it seems he is not wearing adamentine, rather that it is his skin that is adamentine. At his side is a long sword, but with no handle. He has no holy symbol on him. Next to him on the table is small chest that keeps fidgeting.

Hello Marius, tis a fine morning. I came here because I heard that there is evil attacking this village. I met this fellow while I was hunting for information. He knows where the were-monsters are. Did he already ask you?

After he finishes, Seifer says I'm going to go outside now, need some fresh air, this places is getting crowded. He takes a drink before getting up and heading toward the door.

[Vertexx69]

A slight chill runs down Grabhar's spine at the metallic voice that comes out of the inanimate face of the crusader. Nodding his agreement with Seifer, the windian gets up from the table. "Perhaps we could discuss this...outside. There seem to be quite a few extra sets of ears in the Inn this morning." Grabhar turns and goes outside, quickly catching up with Seifer.

[Neurotic]

Yes, War, all of us here are ready for hunting the hunters. Evil such as this cannot be allowed to run rampant. And there are rumors that certain item I'm after is somewhere in the vicinity.

It's good to see you again. Let's follow others outside to hear details.

[Halford]

Alariass smiles politely, appearing to be a simple if well attired merchant. Observing silently he follows the others outside.

[hellrazor111]

The skies are overcast and the light scent of rain is mixed in with the cool autumn air as you leave the inn. Seifer is crouched down along the mostly empty street, head in his arms.

Seifer gives a couple of sniffs and wipes his face before standing up. He adjusts his armor and sword before turning around. When he sees you, he chuckles and rubs the back of his head. He lets out a heavy sigh before saying Are we ready to go or do you have things you still need to do or any questions?
