"Can any of you conjure up a distraction?"

"I could channel the energy to summon an undead creature, but that might raise some suspicion. We could always pay some actual beggar to create a distraction, like knocking on their front doors asking for some food and money. Or maybe you could do your monthly lady-thing that these men ought never see and frighten them away," he states with a wicken grin.

Gurv nods, continuing his pacing.

"Okay, then. The dog is out. I just thought it was a funny coincidence that I was looking at dogs today. It's as decent a plan as I think we can muster based on the information we have. I do like the idea of a distraction. The more we stack the deck in our favor, the better. The undead idea...well, frankly it kinda creeps me out. But I can get over it. If it creeps me out, it might creep them out too. Anything that throws them off their game is a good thing.

Gurv draws both his longsword and shortsword before sitting back down. He places both on the table before him, then pulls a whetstone out of his pouch. Gurv picks up his sword and checks the edge carefully.

"Just remember, if things do go bad...run. If things are not what we expect, we should not force it."

Vyleya laughs, "Believe me, they'd beg for mercy! Alas it is not the right time for such tactics. That beggar idea is interesting though, seems an easier distraction to accomplish. Might be a touch risky for the beggar."

Roland laughs at both Vyleya's and Livingston's comments, and when he speaks, despite the subject, it is with a grin. "I agree with Vyleya; though it is unlikely they would turn a sword on a simple beggar, I would not want to chance it and put another in danger. I could ward him in a way that would prevent him from being attacked, but it would not last long, and I would prefer to reserve Tymora's power for the group after we have entered the building...I have a feeling we will be in need of her blessings. The undead idea is a good one, I feel; even if it does arouse suspicion, and is only temporary, I'd imagine a shambling corpse at the front door would be quite the distraction."

OOC: FYI, I am going to be out of town until Monday morning w/o access to a computer, so I will not be able to post again until then. Please NPC Vyleya as "Front Line Infantry" in any conflict that may arise in my absence.

Gurv looks around at his companions, nodding.

}Okay, then. I'm thinking of getting a few hours of sleep. I'm not sure what preparations anyone else needs to make, but I'm ready to go. I'll be wrapping my weapons up in my bedroll and making sure my cloak covers my mail shirt to make my beggar costume. Besides that, I should be ready. I say we start out by midnight."

Unless anyone makes a comment before he leaves, Gurv will head to his room.

Icklebad Moffet - Gnome Rogue

"For those of you who haven't met me yet, I'm Icklebad Moffett, locksmith and tinkerer extroidnaire". Ickle says with a bow and flourish. "And Gurv speaks wisely. Its off to bed with me and I'll see everyone when the night turns." With that Ickle goes off to his room for his much deserved map.

Vyleya shrugs, "We can figure out the rest when we get there. A little rest sounds good."

She rises and leaves the table. She first tracks down the maid and asks for an old pillowcase. She wraps this around the hook of her halberd and let's it dangle over the axe to give it the semblance of being just a simple pole with a sack tied to it. She then goes to her room and make sure her armor is well-oiled, so as to make as little noise as possible.

She rests until the appointed hour to depart arrives, then bundles herself up in her cloak as much as possible. Her attempts do little to hide the way the freshly-oiled armor catches the light, and the pointed end and hook of her halberd are still painfully visible. The pillowcase seems to have developed a tear where the axe blade abuts the cloth as well. All in all, it is a poor disguise at best.

OOC: Disguise Check = Disguise Check (1d20=1) Ouch! :heh:

I'm back.

Craw Hammerfist · Mar 5, 2007

It is a cloudy and moonless night. The air is humid and a slight mist occasionally falls, merely dampening surfaces, but seeming to muffle sounds a bit.

ooc: map attached. I'll try and figure out how to display it in the thread for future posts.
