[QUOTE="Luinnar, post: 5833818, member: 44459"] Uncle Jaz drags Jax through the door and plops him down on a nearby seat. [COLOR=Green] It's awful! [/COLOR]he announces, sitting down not waiting for Jax to speak. [COLOR=Green]The family is in trouble! There's this Tiefling, his name is Hastings Wellington he is the, shall we say, local crime lord in Bacarte. You were probably too busy robbing houses to know about him... [/COLOR] [COLOR=Green] Anyway, a while ago his goons came to us demanding "protection" money. At first it was not so much so we paid, but soon the payments became larger and larger. And with this and that and business in a slump we found that we could not pay him at all![/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]So we thought "Okay, perhaps he is just a bully and nothing will happen".
