[QUOTE="maddmic, post: 905666, member: 9989"] Kuknar was puzzled by what the old man had told him the night before. He had stopped at a small tavern in a tiny town on his way west. Knowing that he had still not reached his destination, Kuknar was prepared to leave and resume his journeys when an old man sat at his table. In an almost inaudible tone, this man told him something very strange. "A town, west of here. An old woman looks for aid. It is the answer to the question that troubles you. See the sign and you will have truely begun your journey." With that, the old man got up and left the tavern. Kuknar sat and tried to make sense of what had been said. Still on the road, he had seen no sign. It had been four weeks since the old man had filled his mind with more questions than answers. At dawn one morning, he came upon yet another town, but this time he heard a cawing and saw two crows sitting on a branch. One crow clearly had the eye of an orc in it's mouth, just waiting for it's companion to be distracted so that it could eat it. The second crow seemed a bit spooked and flew into the town and came to rest on the roof of an inn. Ensuring that the hood of his cloak was pulled up and his face was hidden, he began to walk into the town. Opening the door to the tavern, Kuknar looked around and then approached the bar. There was nobody at the bar, but then a faint voice came from the kitchen area. "I'll be right out." Waiting patiently, Kuknar absentmindedly played with the orc teeth strung together with pieces of leather hanging from the handle of his axe. Not more than a minute later, an old halfling lady came out to the bar. "Welcome to Arbordale stranger. What can I get for you?" Kuknar was shocked to say the least. Clearing his throat he replied in a hushed tone. [COLOR=red]"Actually I believe that I have come here to help you."[/COLOR] He then looks around and continues. [COLOR=red]"I don't have much to give you, but I would like the closest thing you have to a stout dwarven ale.

If she wants to see what he is, then he will be careful not to allow any others around to see. [b] Description :[/b] Dressed in typical leathers of a barbarian when weather allows it.
