    Aert turns. "My apologies, elf. Your situation amuses me." He straightens. "It has been just over a year since you wandered into my tower. I've been keeping you in my solar. You made a lovely hatrack."

    "When he has said it, he will also have again rejected a peace offer that gives his followers all that they desire, and probably done so to publicly save his skin," notes the Deacon. "I think that will cause his fellow dwarfs to question his motives. At that moment, we must play upon their...

    "So your plan, Sarrom, is to stave off acting against someone who shows every sign of not wishing to come to an acceptable deal with us, until he comes to an acceptable deal with us." The Deacon sighs. "Brilliant. Why do we not simply hand ourselves over to Kalur, along with the North, and...

    [GP] A Game of Politics (Recruiting 2 more)

    Well, I'm not the DM, but if all you need to finish is a few spells and items, just have your character show up--right now we're role-playing, not fighting.

    "I think there's little question of what we're going to offer the dwarfs, though I don't think 10,000 gold is within our means," notes the Deacon. "The question is are we to denounce Lukar publically, as I intended, or privately, as Mr. Quinn suggests." He glances around at his fellow...

    Anguis rolls his eyes. "Mr. Quinn, I do not want to leave a suspected enemy agent in any position of authority whatsoever. You are talking as if Lukar has merely commited some personal discretion, instead of being in the service of a foreign power. I do not want to use whatever hold this...

    The Deacon glances at his fellow from House Centaurus. "Sammor, I consider caution admirable--in moderation. Too much caution can risk the loss of advantages gained, and may transform into delusion masquerading as wisdom. Lukar may not be the Kalur agent in nomine, but his actions indicate he...

    "Hmmm..." Deacon Fevre shakes his head. "No. This does not fit our plan. We should tell them we will meet inside the barracks only if they release women and children. If they do not, we will meet in the same place as before. And that we would like our negotiations to take place in public...

    Pan Chou charges forward, "You will pay for your crimes, evildoer! Strike of Angry Heaven! Fourth Degree!" (Power Attack +8 to dmg, -4 to hit, +7 Melee Attack (+2 from charge), 19 +7= 26 + threat, 15 +7= 22. dmg if hit= 20, if crit=39)

    "I suspect Lukar has kept some evidence of his involvement," notes the Deacon. "Operations of this size tend to leave far more loose ends then their originators hope for. As for Kalur--even without this case, we have a centuries-old tradition of their spying, their warbands, and their rapine...

    The Bold Adventures of Poins--On the Town

    Faulker glances at Alan, amused. "No, for while you may have taken the Emperor's cause, you hadn't taken his Oath, or his Coin." He pulls four silver coins out of his pouch and hands them to the recruits. "And now you have."

    The Bold Adventures of Poins--On the Town

    Sir Faulker leads the recruits to a large barracks. As they walk, they pass a large group of Ogres, wild-looking men, and even wilder looking Nibelungen, gambling. As they enter the barracks, the recruits hear a refrain of a song, sung by a woman with a clear voice and a slight accent. "--And...

    Aert glances at him. "Well, consider this, my friends--during their lengthy reign over most of Tur An Tiel, the Azerai collected a great deal of treasure--much of which was left in their fortress hideaways."

    "As I stated, Quinn, tomorrow, when we speak to them, we continue to offer the fine terms we have been. As Lukar spits and sputters, which he is almost certain to do when he realizes that the amnesty mentioned will not apply to him, we appeal to his followers directly, noting that he is willing...
