[QUOTE="Dragonwriter, post: 5684472, member: 54988"] Marcus hadn't really been surprised that he was the only one of the little band from the Drunken Morkoth to be afforded "guard status" or so it was called. Caytis seemed to know a bit about the blade but had his head too much into magic to really focus on the intricacies of weaponry. Val was a nice enough guy, hiring him on behalf of The Cardinal and all that, but he lacked either the grace or the strength of a warrior. Svexyn was... difficult to read. Not that Marcus had really tried. But it seemed like the heavily-hooded man much preferred to keep out of sight, rather than stand and fight. Well, as long as he wasn't using stealthy talents like the scum of the street Marcus had tried to arrest in days not too long past... But really, not too bad a group to be working with, even for such a simple job. And at least things had gone fairly smooth. Up to now... [color=crimson][i]Just when I'm about to have a drink,[/i][/color][i][/i] goes through Marcus's head as he stands and goes to the slowly-waking man. He keeps his eyes on the strange woman, too, but isn't terribly concerned about her. If this was meant to be an ambush, there were easier and more effective ways of staging one. He taps the barkeep on the shoulder and grunts [color=crimson]"Get him some food, too.
