This is all in character, and in no way do I mean any disrespect out of character.
A lean character cloaked in black walks up to the tavern message board and smirks to himself.
Yes it was an awfully rude gesture, but the amateur work being done before him was almost unbearable! No assassin in her right mind conducted business like this! But as bad as she was, her potential employer was much worse!
In his response to her note he had addressed the assassin by what appeared to be the name she commonly went by. At least, it didn't look like an alias.
Next he had announced the place where they were meeting, which, given the obvious nature of their meeting, was not at all a wise thing to do.
Lastly, he had signed his name on the bottom of his note! If there was any way to pin point exactly who these law breakers were, they had made it easily available for everyone to find! Did they realize paladins, bounty hunters and bands of heroes in search of work also read the tavern corkboard?
The whole thing must have been a joke! Or else the work of amateurs trying to break into the business. Kheldar hoped this wasn't the handy-work of one of his past students and started scratching something with an inkpen under his cloak.
After a moment the rogue reached up to tear a tag off a post advertising the sale of short swords, or "Halfling longswords" as the advertisement much preferred to call them. When he left the board there was a new note under Tyrian's.
