[QUOTE="darkbard, post: 8887022, member: 1282"] (Since Nephis's player is in the room with me right now, we've discussed the following and I am incorporating her input to my post below.) [I]Before retrieving the Scrolls of Xanthar from their dusty shelf, Chanvati orders Pa'avu to search the body of their lead assailant. The goliath uncovers a coin purse of payment and incriminating evidence linking his cousin Amna to this assassin, member of a secret sect within the priesthood of the Empire. The Empire feels its finances stretched thin as a result of this current crisis and considers my family an economic threat to its hegemony. My uncle has been considering capitulating to the Empire's demands, urged on by his eldest child, Amna, but my father has been urging his brother to hold steady, seeing great opportunity for our family. This assassination attempt is a display of power to cow my father by putting his heir in mortal peril. When Chanvati relates the outline of this to Pa'avu and thanks her for risking her life for his safety, she responds, "Gosb'tar, I overheard your cousin arranging something like this but could not tell you since I had no proof. Would you have believed me if I spoke out against your family? But I have been ever wakeful to protect you." Chanvati considers this but does not reply. Something to mull over, this. The two ascend the spiral staircase with the Scrolls tucked beneath a coil of rope and packets of lentil-cakes in Chanvati's pack. There is a riot of activity in the central chamber now, as clearly something The Oracle revealed has the scribes and military officers in an uproar of shouting voices. Yet the ever-watchful Mind still looms above in the mezzanine. "Lend me your vitality, Pa'avu, to fuel my Discipline." Chanvati reaches out and grabs the goliath's wrist, drawing ki from her to augment the psionic fog with which he shrouds them, masking their exit from psionic and mundane notice alike as they slip past the Spectral Servants and out into the plaza, prize in hand![/I] [HR][/HR] Pa'avu makes an Endurance Secondary Skill check Roll 3 +7 = 10 vs Easy DC 8. Success. Chanvati makes an Arcana Primary Skill check Roll 10 +9 +2 =21 vs Medium DC 12. Success! [/QUOTE]
