    [Adventure] A scholar in need (DM:Someone, Judge: Renau1g)

    Bones tells the others, "I'm going to take a stroll around the neighborhood to see what I can learn from the locals." Bones walks around to inquire about any suspicious people or unusual activities occurring around Thogorius's house in the past few days. He looks for neighborhood merchants...

    [Adventure] A scholar in need (DM:Someone, Judge: Renau1g)

    Bones furrows his brow in thought, "Finding Thogorius before the Seagull goons would be great, but where do we start? The Theotocopolitan soldiers likely outnumber us, so they will surely find him first if we go door-to-door through all of Daunton and Theotocopolis. Unless, Domenicos, you have...

    [Adventure] A scholar in need (DM:Someone, Judge: Renau1g)

    Bones takes a moment, considering Domenicos's words. "It's important that we stick together, but I am in favor of pressing on toward Thogorius's house first. We are more likely to gain information that may help us gain the advantage in the search for Thogorius." Bones, level 1 human rogue hp...

    [Adventure] A scholar in need (DM:Someone, Judge: Renau1g)

    Bones pulls the bloody dagger away from the injured man's side. Wipes it on the soldier's shirt, and with a spin and a flourish, tucks it in its small sheath hanging from his belt. "I'm glad you could be reasonable," he says politely to the wounded soldier. "This Epigenes... where are his...

    [Adventure] A scholar in need (DM:Someone, Judge: Renau1g)

    Bones picks through the daggers and tests the weight for throwing. He picks one out that he likes and finds a convenient spot to hide it in his boot. Bones takes a quick count of the coin and divides it among his companions (16 gp and 80 sp for each). "Not bad for quick work, but we shouldn't...

    [Adventure] A scholar in need (DM:Someone, Judge: Renau1g)

    Bones quickly retrieves his daggers, and hustles back toward Domenicos. "Let them go," Bones suggests casually to his companions, "we may find ourselves severely outnumbered if whoever is behind this has the entire Theotocopolitan guard in his pocket. We should keep moving--on to Thogorius's...

    [Adventure] A scholar in need (DM:Someone, Judge: Renau1g)

    Bones dashes across the square with surprising speed. He slips behind one of the thugs, pinching the thug between him and the insectoid. Bones slashes his short sword across the thug's back, leaving a painful, bleeding wound. With a nod to Sound of Stone he quips, "Nothing like a good fight...

    [Adventure] A scholar in need (DM:Someone, Judge: Renau1g)

    Bones slips out from behind the market stall, spins toward one of the goons, and takes a stab at him with his short sword. Bones lets out a groan of frustration as he struggles to stay on his feet after the attack. Minor: draw short sword Move: move to I5 Standard: sly flourish, 1d20 + 9 vs...

    [Adventure] A scholar in need (DM:Someone, Judge: Renau1g)

    Sensing trouble, Bones gives Domenicos a wink and slips around behind one of the market stalls, attempting to stay out of sight. He quickly draws a dagger and throws it end-over-end at one of the halberd-wielding goons. Move: move to K4 with Stealth check to hide (if allowed) 1d20 + 9 = 10...

    "I'm ready, Domenicos. I should have enough food and water for a few days. " Bones steps along quietly along with the clang of the armor from some of the other members of the band. "On our way, why don't you tell us a little more about what you and Thogorius have been researching lately?"

    "Not interested?" Bones cries incredulously. "I wouldn't say that... I've spent little time among books and scholars, but my old master Fargrim taught me much about the wonders of the deep parts of the world... Rich in history and ancient stories--not to mention treasures. So tell me about your...

    Bones is in! My first adventure here, and I am pumped! He's a striker, strictly speaking... I'm far more excited about playing the character than the battles. Bones, level 1 human rogue

    Bones saunters over to the discussion, "An expedition!" he shouts. Taking a deep breath to temper his excitement, he goes on "I'm game for an expedition of sorts. So tell me, Domenicos... what type of business do you and Thogorius work for? Where do you think we should start looking?" Bones...

    "I'm Bones, nice to meet you." The young rogue offers a hand to the golden-haired elf, as he takes a pull from his ale. "That's quite a talent for disguise. I've had only a little practice at the art myself--but only in the most crude and mundane forms. All the same, it's a good trick to...

    Feeling refreshed after a nice long nap, Bones re-enters the tavern--with a wink at the pretty elf-maid seated at a corner table. He saunters up to the bar, "I'll have a half-pint of your double-brewed." Upon receiving his ale from the barkeep, Bones plunks a few coins on the bar in payment...

    "Artemis," Bones speaks slowly. "Lord Artemis... King Artemis... It has quite a nice ring. General Bones though... I am no leader, just a wanderer, none will follow me -- leastways, no great number. I must retire for the evening, but I will return!." With a polite nod, Bones excuses himself...

    Bones looks Artemis in the eye as they shake hands. "To the treasures of the Isles!" he says heartily as he raises his glass and then takes a sip. "Where I came from before is unimportant. I've spent some time on the road, before apprenticing with a dwarven treasure hunter. He showed me the...

    "Who's ready to go on a dig?" "You can call me Bones," the lanky human with tousled, dark brown hair greets the strangers in the tavern broadly. "I'll descend into any dark hole if there's a whiff of gold to be found. Traps, critters, I say bring it!" Several of the bar's patrons turn to...
