Even Newer(er) Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

Still facing Alkas, Castile turns her head to Tlacamatli and beams a smile. "Great games, a royal wedding, and honor to be won? How can I say no to that?" She then turns back to Alkas. "Well then cousin! I'm coming with you, so it looks like we'll be famous together."

[sblock=language]Good point, mewness. Castile will speak Magari since it's the language spoken at home.[/sblock]

"I'll be glad to have you at my side, ain't, I mean nothing like a dwarf in a scrap. The chance for fame and honor could be a boon for me, perhaps if we win these games I can see my dear Lily again..." he says with a far off look in his eyes and a faint smile on his lips.

"Rocco Shadowlost, slayer of devils, looking for some more fun! Ah, Max, you're already here. I thought I'd be the first back."

Hey hey Rocco! The warlord shouts to the waitress again. Two more ales lass and some...err...tree sap?...no that's not right...uh...get Nementah whatever she wants! She's had my back many times already. I can tell you that.

The bartender looks up from wiping down the counter and his eyes are wide at the sight of all the patrons, apparently he was so preoccupied with his cleaning he missed them all come in. He begins tallying up their numbers...

Well, twilsemail does a great job here: http://www.enworld.org/forum/living-4th-edition/302636-l4w-tavern-patrons.html

Nementah (MetaVoid) - Wilden Shaman 6 (I think?)

Likely soon to enter:

So, yeah a full house. A whole mess of mid-high heroic PC's available...

After the PCs leaving for adventure we have:

Controller: 3 (Devinihm, Jonathan, Myrodis)
Defender: 2 (Zaemar, Rocco)
Leader: 3 (Corvus, Max, Nementah)
Striker: 7 (Auntie Mab, Illarion, Maroohk, Raijin, Dante, Haruka, Sigarr)

Total PC's 15. Uh, any DM's want to run adventures? There are currently no other pending adventures... [/sblock]

The thri-kreen realizes that he has not introduced himself to the newer patrons. "My name is Sound of Stone. I hunt for my lost clutchmates."

Dismounting with a clatter, shield falling to the floor, Kamotz looks at the dire wolf sternly, Sit. and with that the beast lays down. Good enough... Kamotz sits close to the wolf, fidgeting with the new riding boots he'd bought from the caravan.

Tlacamatli rises and nods politely to the bartender and other occupants of the tavern. Slinging his macuahuitl over his shoulder again, he leads his recruits outside.

[sblock=ooc]Character list: Alkas, Castile, the Dartmoor Irregulars, Hú Lí, Noriaki, and Takahaan.

The adventure thread is here.[/sblock]

Hú Lí follows Tlacamatli to the door, turns around to face the tavern, taps once on her drum, bows deeply, and backs out, before turning to follow again.

Captain Dartmoor smiles and bows to the dwarf when asked about keeping his men in line. "Of course we know how to behave in polite society. They may need a few reminders between here and there, but rest assured. They'll get them."

As the others begin to filter out, so too do the Irregulars. "Onward! To adventure!" the Captain cries and his men let out a loud, if high-pitched, cheer and charge out the door and down to the docks. Their table is ashambles and thoroughly saturated with gravy from their roast.

Johnathan Michael William Fred Fitzpatrick hops onto the table and bows to his new acquaintences. "It looks like I must go. It has been a pleasure meeting you all." He takes Mab's Hand and kisses it lightly, "Especially you, madam." With that he runs off to join his fellows.

Suddenly, there is a flare of residual magical energy, and before he can react, what seems to be a hole in the air opens up, and sucks Tyris in. The hole then closes, leaving no evidence that it was there.

Devinihm's eyes widen and he touches the talisman that re-summons his armor as a bar patron is sucked through a portal, but as no one else seems to find this odd, he allows the armor to return to its extra-dimensional space for his own comfort as he notices some of his recent companions. He quickly crosses to them.

"Auntiemab, did you see?" he whispers with an edge of worry. "Another man dragged out of the tavern. And by a portal. Are we certain we stopped the bazzlebaums? Could one still be stalking the city?"
