Even Newer(er) Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

But if Vermitrax turns into a Lich are we suppose to kill him as well?

And more importantly, would we get paid double? Sharpe says turning to Vermitrax.

"Its the other way around, lich regenerates, phylanctery doesn't. Break phylanctery to kill lich, yes?" Vermitrax resorts to simpler language. He seems distracted form a moment, and then a frown of concern crossed his face "We must hurry, everyone, gather you things, we are leaving."

OOC: roll call for the ones in Undwrneath the Undead! [MENTION=75065]jbear[/MENTION] you can join on the way, as soon as you finish. The sooner the better though

[sblock=OOC] [MENTION=51271]Voda Vosa[/MENTION] Adventure has been wrapped by our judge. XP and all that is being sorted but we have been released to leave. I won't want to level up (though I doubt I would have) because then I'll be even further ahead of the curve of the adventure challenge, so I'll just wait til the end of the adventure to add those xp, if that is okay.

Anyway, ready and willing! Let me know if I should come up with a way to integrate myself or if you have a way to integrate TCO.[/sblock]

Rolling his eyes at such a simple question, Kamotz responds All Lich are belong to Lauto, Lauto pays.

Voda Vosa · Aug 21, 2012

Vermitrax rolls his eyes in turn, not even addressing Sharpe's question.

OOC: Sure, make your intro.

CaBaNa · Aug 21, 2012

Kamotz looks at Vermitrax, points at Sharpe, the shifter smiles and shakes his head.

And we will get to save the tiny invisible dragons! Sharpe says happily.

Immediately after the door closes behind Vimak, it swings open once again. A Tiefling woman with chain armor and a naginata steps inside and bows to no one in particular (the bouncer, perhaps?).

The bartender looks at the newcomer and scratches his head, trying to remember where he's seen her before. The Tiefling notices this and responds to his gaze in kind. "I'm Ilse" she says simply. "I've heard this is a place where people go to find help."

"Huh? Oh, right. It's also a place to order a drink..."

[sblock=a familiar face]Is Cyr in the tavern? I don't think any of Jezebel's other former companions except Sir Exsixten are still active in L4W, but if they are, Ilse looks exactly like her.[/sblock][sblock=Ilse picture, stats]

Whiggins shakes out after standing for the entrance of Sigarr, bone dust settles around Kamotz as it is thrown loose from his robes. The sound of their plate mail scratching together is a raucous din, until finally the pair still themselves again. Kamotz levels his head, noticing they and Sigarr were close to the same height. After a long snuffle, Kamotz chortles You smell like deathly cold and dead bear, come have a drink with us!

The shifter turns to the rest of his group and nudges Whiggins, the dire wolf promptly lays back down, Look it the size of him! Vermitrax! You seeing this? What was that about your barbarian now Sharpe? Kamotz looks to Sharpe to see if he gets his joke, What else have you slain Sigarr, I've sent a young dragon to Lauto recently. Destroyed a Lich too, even though he laughed and said something about being immortal. I'll just destroy him again when he comes back. the smile returns to Kamotz even larger than before.

"Hail hairy one. I too have encountered those that refer to themselves as immortal and have sent them to Helheim. I have recently slain a goliath warrior of great skill. As for a dragon? I have never encounter such a creature, nor a lich. I harken from the land of ice and snow, the dragons would not do well in such a climate. As for your accomplishments, they seem many. A strong warrior you appear to be my good man" Sigarr replies, accepting the invitation.

Luinnar said:
My little barbarian has all grown up! Sharpe says with a tear in his eye.

Wait...you're not one of my brothers, are you? He says, walking up to the half-gaint and looking him over (from waist height).

No, not him. Did I ever tell you I have a half-giant for a half-brother? And a mul and a half-orc and a tiefling and a aasimar and... bah there are too many of them!

"Ah, it appears that some has imbibed too much mead, unless you are Loki in disguise attempting to confuse me. I may not be Vor, but I do know we do not share any ancestry" he replies.

The door opens and a cleric known to many walks into the room. Seeing members of two groups that he has hired for tasks the last two years, he gives a nervous nod to Sharpe and Vermitrax as to say thank you for there services, then moves quickly to the other group of six. He sits down and begins to unravel a map...

The door burst open and a man rushes in, followed by three others, with the look of terror etched in their faces. D..D...DRAGON!!! He is hear! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

The cleric, shocked in disbelief mutters to himself...no...no this can't be true. Acoording to my...

More citizens of Daunton rush through the door. Noises can be heard outside. Call out the archers!!! More footsteps. Citizens! Go to your homes...now! As the other who came into the tavern manage to catch their breath, one of them speaks to the bartender. The rumors are true. It is him! The black dragon is here! He flies over head

Brother Navio, We...we must go now. Quickly, arm yourselves. He gathers his map and stuffs it in his satchel, the hurries to the others motioning them to follow. As you exit the door you see town fold run from one to houses in total panic. Some stand frozen in terror. Forty feet above you, a black dragon hovers over you. It is the dragon Bosch. Arrows fly up towards the beast. Some never come near the target and return to the ground. Cries of pain are heard as arrows hit unlucky citizens. Others shoot flaming arrows which return towards the ground hit houses and business establishments, which soon catch on fire, radiating heat and flickering light throughout the night. It is total chaos.

"Ah, it appears that my skills are needed. I shall accompany you on this quest and afterwards mayhap you shall help me" the brawny half-giant states, gathering his unique weapon and following the others out.

jbear · Aug 22, 2012

Hard on the heels of the woman who entered the tavern, a heavily armoured figured brushes aside the door and steps inside, removing a magnificent emerald jewelled helm.
A smile tugs at his lips as he surveys the somewhat familiar place.

"We have returned to the place where we began. Our blade remains hungry for work. What challenges will present themselves to us this time, the minds wonder. Boris, servant of Sun and Shadow, at your service."

He remains there in a disciplined stance, as though he was waiting for something.

OOC:

The Cursed One aka Boris ready to go.
