Kalorn summoned his familiar from his perch. He hadn't seen anyone follow him - which means either they were very good (great!) or they hadn't bothered, which wold be disappointing.

He nodded to the others, drained his cup. He was... looking forward to this. Teleporting a large group like this took power, and there was professional interest. He dismissed Sooty as an abundance of caution. Lead on, Wizard.

Knowledge arcana to glean as much as he can from the teleportation experience, just roleplaying: 1D20+3 = [6]+3 = 9


The procedure proved far beyond him.

When the group was in position, with a slight frown, he drew his sword (slowly, as to not cause alarm) and rested the point on the floor (gently, as to not scuff the floor, he *hated* soldiers who did that) and put his hands on the pommel, which reached his chest. We don't know what's on the other side... Probably safe, but. Thus.

Feeling uncomfortable around Mord's followers, Sesto heads for the stairs and follows Imani. Yes, let's not delay any further.

Primus follows Imani, taking note of the Teleportation Circle on the floor. He quickly memorizes the sequence. Despite his teleportation ability, he can't create these circles. But it's always good to know sequences to various teleportation circles.

OOC: Keen Mind, can remember everything in the last month. So, he'll know this sequence for a month, unless he writes it down later. Question, does this help him remember the sequence for the circle in Imani's tower, or for the one at their destination? Or both? He's gonna do the same thing when they get to the other side.

Mord summons his followers and they follow him upstairs and array themselves around him as he prepares to be transported to their destination. He shows some interest in Imami's transportation method, though he doubts he'll ever be able to use it himself. He had access to his own teleportation magic, though it was short range and of limited utility by comparison.

Rise of the Dracolich Chapter 2: The Journey


As each person stepped through the teleportation circle, the room shifted around them. Soon, they found themselves in a well-crafted wooden attic. Chests and various trophies, tapestries, and oddities were neatly stowed about the peak-roofed room. A bustle of activity could be heard out the three dormer-windows that lined the north wall: a busy street ran by outside, and a fortified town wall could be seen through the windows, with a pair of soldiers marching along it.

"Welcome to Daggerford," said a well-dressed, greying man in a purple cape. "I am Isteval, and this is my home. By Lathander's light, you are welcome here."

When everyone was through, Imani also came through the teleporter and embraced his friend.

Before stepping through the circle, Kalorn muttered a warding spell. He did so so frequently - whenever stepping into a room, out of a room, around a corner - that it had become an almost unconscious habit.

(OOC: cast bladeward)

He gritted his teeth as he stepped through, momentarily disoriented. As he shifted aside, he scanned the room for threat and seeing none, sheathed his sword. He nodded to the well dressed man and replied simply "Kalorn". His eyes darted around, identifying the room's exit points. His state of alert lowered somewhat when Imani followed through, but only marginally.

Well he was in for it now. "Never been this far west" he commented as he set down his heavy pack, and looked to the others.

Mord looked around the room as he stepped out of the circle with his three bodyguards and nodded respectfully to their temporary host. He released a breath of relief as Imami embraced the man as he'd feared having to actually interact with him. Stepping to the side with his entourage, the warlock took the opportunity to let the wizard do any necessary interaction with the man for now.

OOC: Feigned respect Deception: [roll0] For RP reasons more than anything.

Primus casually stepped through the portal. He’s been through so many of these, it was old hat. He quickly memorized the sequence on this side, just for giggles, then tipped his wide brimmed hat at their host.

Isteval arched an eyebrow when the Mordguard entered his attic, but he was quickly distracted - first by Mord's respectful nod, and then by his old friend Imani's arrival. Mord recognised immediately that Isteval would very likely be offended by his followers. A Knight of Cormyr and Paladin of Lathander, their host could feasibly cause him trouble. The attic was not terribly large and there was an obvious stairway down. Heading downstairs seemed prudent, expected, and probably polite, as others came through the portal and the attic became somewhat crowded.

Mord took the opportunity and quickly ushered the Mordguard out of sight so as to be out of mind. A small smile lit on his lips as he descended having basically pulled the wool over the man's eyes so smoothly. With luck he'd be able to keep them out of trouble until they had left the city.
