[Adventure] Kingmaker (DM:renau1g; judge: garyh)

[renau1g]

Elurin talks to the archer boy as he spends a few minutes to heal himself.

			Nice shooting. My name is Elurín. I have heard word that you were not like the other bandits. How long have you been with this band?

[sblock=ooc]Do I need to submit my character sheet every time I level? IF so, how do I do that?[/sblock]

[sblock=Character Reviews]
You only have to do it when you're done an adventure, so once Kingmaker is completed and if/when we move to the next one you'd need to re-submit. So just let me know once it's updated and I'll take a quick glance and see if there's anything major I notice. [/sblock]

"Uh, thanks. Name's Hiccup, well least that's what everyone here calls me. I came around not more than a month or two ago." the fresh-faced youth replies, he looks quite confused about Elurin's' words, considering the death so easily dispensed to his comrades. He almost seems to be waiting for the inevitable blow to finish him, his eyes dart over Ruarc and Faustus warily.

[sblock=ooc]
The above was a result of Elurin's Passive Insight of 20.

Any questions can be directed at him, getting him to reveal some things though will take either Diplomacy (Good Cop), or Intimidation (Bad Cop). Some questions will be easier with one or the other.

[Leif]

Faustus, Tiefling Avenger of Lauto

Seeing the trepidation in the young archer's eyes, Faustus will bare his formidable fangs and make a false lunge at him, as he says, "Boo!"

[sblock=OOC]I should really play characters like this more often![/sblock]

 

[renau1g]

The boy nearly falls over in fright, his face blanches at the tiefling's infernal countenance.

 

[Leif]

Faustus, Tiefling Avenger of Lauto

Faustus thinks, "Damn, I'm good, uhhh, evil!"

 

[Scotley]

Mari smiles at the Tiefling's antics. "Now boy, tell us where Kressle kept her treasure and we might not feed you to our demon here."

 

[HandofMystra]

Elurin moves hastily to place his quarterstaff between his crude companions and a possible source of information. "Pacifying this land will require winning hearts and minds not merely bludgeoning and bluster." To Hiccpup, "we have been charged with ridding this land of bandits and protecting the good people living here. I have heard that you are not like the others. If you can convince me of this and give us some helpful information, I think I can avert the bandits doom and escort you home or you can leave the territory. Why were you with this bandit crew? Telling us where the Kressle kept her haul would be helpful too."

 

[Leif]

Faustus, Tiefling Avenger of Lauto

Faustus begins to look even more menacing, mostly to conceal his disappointment, and thinks, "This Elurin dude is really a wet blanket!"

"Bandits? No, we aren't bandits, we're revolutionaries! The nobles care naught for our plight. We take what should be ours. So what's your story? How much land did they offer your for your help?" the youth replies, the fires in his eyes burn brightly as he speaks, but Elurin's words seem to affect him. He takes you to a spot underneath the tree he was perched on and lefts up a rock, showing a veritable hoard of weapons, gold and potions.

"We found a small burial chamber a few weeks back, haven't been able to move the stuff yet." Hiccup says.

Faustus, Tiefling Avenger of Lauto

[sblock=renau1g]OOC: I tried to get Faustus leveled up, but the code on the L4W wiki threw me for a loop. Got xp and hp raised, at least. For his L2 utility power, Faustus will select Resonant Escape, Encounter, Divine, Teleportation, Immediate Reaction, Personal.
