Heroes, Inc., Day 1: Mysterious Strangers

[frostrune]

Aiden walks over to Aleena, gently shakes her out of a daze, and says softly "Time to wake up, m'lady. Your people await. Do you think you can stand up?" She seems to nod, and he helps her up and guides her up the stairs.

As he does, he tells Timrin "Unfortunately, Peregion isn't going anywhere. Besides, my guards have it taken care of. The people should get to meet their heroes.

"Only one need see the work I do, and he sees all."

"I will stay with Lord Peregion until he is delivered unto the proper authorities."

OOC: Timrin does not go to the top of the tower. Something is not right about this guy

"I hate being spied on," She looks grimly at Shando. "And I have a feeling you're right. This isn't over, not by a long shot."

It's only just begun. she thought.

He's using this to further his own political ends, how nice. that familar soft voice told her sarcastically.

She agreed with it.

Aiden turns to the rest of you.

"I hope you don't mind being given credit for this all. In a couple days when I'm settled in, we'll have much to discuss. Can you take care of Lady Aleena for tonight? My ships are not the best accommodations for the wounded."

"We can - and her father as well," Fin replies. "They're in our charge until morning, regardless."

"Come on, Alethia... let's take her below."

OOC: Back in the machine room, I'd like to run a Detect Magic over Aleena... and also see if the dead priests have anything of interest before we leave. /OOC

"Aye, you're right." she turns to the lady and gently leads her below. "Come on Milady. One foot forward, that's it," she said encouragingly, watching her carefully, sure that the girl's behavior is the cause of some sort of drug.


I don't think this is the cause of a simple bump on the head. The wand should have cured that. That leaves drugs or enchantment. My bet is drugs. It's alot easier to dope someone than enchant them. And drugs can be administered by anyone. she thought. When they are alone, she will broach the subject to Fin.

She has a whole lot of auras that will take a while to sort out. They didn't bother to loot her items, and she may have some of her own long-duration spells going.

The priests carry religious texts as well as a variety of magical items that can be identified back at home base.

Alethia takes Fin aside. "I don't think this is magic that's causing her condition. It's probably some sort of drug or combination of drugs. We need to get her to a healer specializing in that sort of thing," she told him.

Alethia takes Fin aside. "I don't think this is magic that's causing her condition. It's probably some sort of drug or combination of drugs."

"Or both - magical drugs," Fin replies. "The sort of thing the fae specialise in, hmm?"

"We need to get her to a healer specializing in that sort of thing," she told him.

"Yes."

OOC: DM - do we know of anywhere nearby that might have a permanent antimagic field in effect? Banks, jewellers, law courts, something like that? /OOC

Alethia looks grim. "I am so going to brush up on my knowledge of toxins and drugs. This is irritating me," she said.

"There's a lot of us, we should also see what we can dig up on his 'lordship' upstairs as well while we get Aleena some treatment," Dyria said, joining Fin and Alethia. "I also wonder if his men managed to capture a prisoner downstairs?"
