Here we go. Let's start by having each character enter the Tavern.

Drulox "Dru" Xorik Human Order of the Dragon Cavalier1 AC20 FF20 T10 HP11

Drulox Xorik, a fairly stout-looking but by no means a 'big' man stands 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs about 190 pounds, much, if not most, of it muscle, although he does appear perhaps a bit soft around the middle. He wears the well-tailored, finer clothes of a gentleman, with finely crafted half-plate armor and an ornate flail dangling at his side. He also has a princely short sword at his waist and rides a fine palomino charger that he calls "Blister" when he dismounts, "Whoah, Blister, good boy." Dru comes into the tavern, idles near the door for a few seconds while his eyes adjust to the dimness of the barroom, and then selects a vacant table not too near the bar, but not too distant either. Before he moves to that table, he takes one last look at Blister to confirm that all is as he left it. Then he moves to his chosen table and draws a chair back.

As Dru enters the room, he sees Janiven busy making some repairs to one of the Keg's tap. She looks toward you as the enter the room and smiles. "I'm glad you made it, Have a seat while we wait for a few others to join us. Would you like an ale?"

Trevor is a small framed human standing perhaps 5'11 and weighing at best 140 pounds. The only thing really distinctive about him is his dark gold hair which would be the envy of many a lass. Simply dressed in brown leather pants and a cream cotton shirt with a brown cloak he definetly has the air of a farm boy out to make his way. Perhaps the oddest thing about him is the large heavy crossbow he carries that anyone sane would doubt that he had the strength to use much less carry. With an almost naive approach he selects a table at random and sits down where he orders beer and some cheese and bread. Once it arrives he happily ignores the others and concertates on the food as most normal 17 year olds would do.

A thickly built hunchbacked figure shuffles in covered in a large hooded cloak. It, for the cloak makes it hard to determine exactly what is underneath male, female, human or otherwise, moves into the shadowiest part of the tavern and finds a seat. The odd figure does have a sword on under the cloak and seems to be dark in color with a unusually long nose. It bobs toward Janiven in what must be a nod. In a flicker of light you see the figure wears a small shield strapped to one wrist with the image of a predatory bird emblazoned on it. The figure wears some sort of strange armor of hexagonal plates sewn onto cloth and seems to have clothing made of dark feathers.

"Welcome Trevor. Have a seat while we wait for a few more to join us. This - motioning to the Human already seated - is Drulox Xorik. I do think I have some cheese." She brings you each an ale and disappears momentarily then quickly reappears with two small baskets of bread and cheese and places one on each of your tables.

The cheese is average, but the bread is a very good sweet bread with just a hint of saltiness.

The ale is unusual but also very good. It's a dark brew with a chocolatey finish.

"Good afternoon, Suzume. Please, have a seat, it wont be much longer. Would you like anything to drink?"

Trevor will nod towards Drulox in greeting and set about consuming the bread and cheese.
