Even Newer(er) Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

[treex]

OOC: I've started the thread (link here) and quite frankly I haven't got the itty bitty details all figured out so go slow, yeah? Think of it like chocolate, if you eat it all at once you'd get sick. In case anyone is worried, by the time I've run the first encounter (which is done), everything should be smoothed out.

 

[Neil1889]

OOC: Alright, all I want to know is... who's Velma?

Artemis stands up as Lilli approaches the magic tinkerers. "Lilli, this sounds dangerous. Perhaps I should come with you and make sure nothing bad happens. It's the least I can do."

He then turns and addresses the old elf, "Ilarion, it was very nice to meet you. I'm going with Lilli for now. Good journies my friend."

"Erm, right" says Lilli, somewhat nervously. "Illarion, may your road be blessed with Gil's favour. Aside of Goddess Vena, it's the best I can offer right now."

"Lead on, Artemis, but let's listen to the interview at least!"

 

[Neil1889]

Lilli looks somewhat, well, nervous and apprehensive towards Gil as she exits the Common Room of the tavern. But she feels reassurred when she meets Artemis' eyes as he holds open a back-room door for her to pass through.

Gil calls out, 7 RABBIT!

A testy voice drifts down from the stairs leading to the rooms for rent on the second floor: "What?"

HEY 7 RABBIT!

"WHAT?" A dwarven head appears over the banister, scowling down at the common room.

when that doesn't work, he waves the loudly dressed dwarf over, and uses Ghost Sound to whisper directly into @JoeNotCharles 7 Rabbit's ear

"Eaaagh!" Rabbit jumps a foot. "Fine, if it's that important, I'll be there in a minute!" He disappears back in his room and there is a loud rustle of paper and a thump as he closes a chest. He starts stumping down the stairs, muttering as he comes. "trying to study... so many charts... right in my ear... ow..." But when he reaches the floor and sees who was calling him, his face splits into a wide smile.

"Gil! How go your studies?"

After a few moments of catching up he follows the others out.

...but it isn't long before Lilli exits again, the bundle of books in her arms, a disembodied spectral hand dealing with the doors behind and in front of her.

She also bears a rather worried frown and with a "Farewell good friends. Wish me luck," she leaves the tavern with as much pace as she can muster.

Tristan gets up with near complete silence to follow Gil, and comes up beside him in such a way that the scholar doesn't see him when he looks back until he turns to face forward again. "Let us see if the hunt is on then," the elf says, his grin looking far less friendly than moments ago.

Whoa, Gil instinctively covers his pockets and hops back a step, he gauges the expression of Tristan very carefully You remind me of my old classmates... weighs the scholar. He lifts his hands off his pockets slowly, a fake smile creeps onto Gil's face Try not to stab me, by accident.

"Erm, right" says Lilli, somewhat nervously. "Illarion, may your road be blessed with Gil's favour. Aside of Goddess Vena, it's the best I can offer right now."

"Lead on, Artemis, but let's listen to the interview at least!"

OOC: @FourMonos

The human beams from ear to ear, his smile so wide it hurt his cheeks, Thanks for the kind words Lilli, Best Wishes and Good Luck. Artemis, until next time, be safe. Gil moves to hug both of his new friends, before allowing them to depart.

OOC: @Neurotic

Illarion huh, that is some hearing on you... says Gil, *Will be keeping THAT in mind...* thinks the outrageously camouflaged wizard. Take my arm and we'll make our way back.

A testy voice drifts down from the stairs leading to the rooms for rent on the second floor: "What?"



"WHAT?" A dwarven head appears over the banister, scowling down at the common room.



"Eaaagh!" Rabbit jumps a foot. "Fine, if it's that important, I'll be there in a minute!" He disappears back in his room and there is a loud rustle of paper and a thump as he closes a chest. He starts stumping down the stairs, muttering as he comes. "trying to study... so many charts... right in my ear... ow..." But when he reaches the floor and sees who was calling him, his face splits into a wide smile.

"Gil! How go your studies?"

After a few moments of catching up he follows the others out.

Well! I've had time to really nail down the local Dwarven dialect, and I think I'm going to get some practice with my Draconic because we have a kobold coming along. How have your studies been going? asks Gil as he continues into the back room.

BAARRRKKKKEEEEPPPPP Another round for everyone! The dwarf fighter gulps down the remaining ale in his mug and slams it down on the table. Kruk looks around the room with a grin on his face. ha HAAAAA! It doesn't get better than this! He takes his forearm and wipes the ale of his beard, then burps loudly.


ooc: Attention future dms. There are a few Lvl 11's in the tavern waiting anxiously for work.

"Ha! You get hit in head too much times Stinkbeard, you say it not get better than this? We hads lots more fun killing that big red demon guy or when we fight pirates or when we kill kobolds and dragon, oh wait you not there for killing kobolds or dragon. Nobody left who be with Kane to kill dragon. Music Man gone, he was last. Maybe it Kane that problem, maybe if Kane be nicer and stronger then hsi friends don't all go away. Just Stinkbeard and Kane." the bugbear blathers, a rare frown on his face as he thinks back to all his former companions.

[sblock=ooc]
So I think it's just Kruk & Kane left in the tavern now?

So Kane initially was with Wil, Hergunna, Stanng, Mervin and Tessa in Lord Byron's Economic Woes. Lost Stanng, Mervin and Tessa after/during the adventure. Added Kruk and Carolina in Lord Byron's High Seas Stakes. Added Charina in Lost Silver. Lost Hergunna in Lost Silver. Lost Charina, Wil, and Carolina in Brotherhood returned.
