    PH1: The Darque Demense (Bront judging)

    Eleria draws her rapier and passes through the threshold behind Elthic and Abdul. Still near the front entrance, she surveys the interior. “It would seem that something, at least, is intent on keeping us from finding the secrets of this place, so I suggest that you do not stray far from the...
  2. Deus Ex Machina

    PH1: The Darque Demense (Bront judging)

    More than a little surprised that she received an answer for her question, Eleria realises that whoever (or whatever) it was, the source of this voice was somehow sentient and may be reasoned with. Again she calls out. “We are employed by the rightful owner of this house… and have proof! We...
  3. Deus Ex Machina

    PH1: The Darque Demense (Bront judging)

    As she hears the voice, Eleria’s right hand instinctively creeps towards the hilt of her rapier. She calls out in a demanding tone... “Who speaks? And by whose authority do you make these demands!” Know: Arcana/Spellcraft: 4. I wanted to know if the speech was some kind of magical effect...

    PH1: The Darque Demense (Bront judging)

    “That is quite a useful talent you have there, Xir.” Eleria comments when he descends, beckoning him to come with her back around to where the others are waiting. When they are all together, she speaks her thoughts. “There are three doors accessible from the ground. The front, the rear and a...

    PH1: The Darque Demense (Bront judging)

    “I did not sense anything about Lucius Darque that was untoward, except perhaps, that he is a bit of a pretentious sod with an inflated sense of worth. Though he pays well and that suits me just fine.” When Eleria hears the other suggestions, she replies. “Unfortunately, I can offer little...

    PH1: The Darque Demense (Bront judging)

    Confident in their ability to complete the task, Eleria offers, "So, I assume that we will rendezvous with you back here with the key?" Once she is satisfied with Darque's response, she asks no further questions of her employer. Instead, she resolved to deal with any situations as they arose...
  7. Deus Ex Machina

    City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn X

    “So it seems. When do we depart?” Valdaris makes ready to leave. OOC: Damn it. I obviously didn’t convey my meaning very well. I was actually implying some kind of attack en route, though I can see how you got the impression of the city watch. Either way, Valdaris is in. Set-up a thread and...

    1st Level HP's = CON..thoughts on the rule

    Don't understate the importance of CON. Sure, it's not used as some other things like DEX for example, but when it is used it's often much more important. Potentially, the three most likely causes of death (-10 HP, Failed Death Saves and Drowning) are all CON based. And, you become helpless if...

    City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn X

    “As much as I hate to say it, that man is right.” Valdaris says as he points to Kol. Looking about the inn, the only other people who seem even vaguely interested in the job are Ruud, Taelythenihel and Ciprinus. Two mages and a druid. “Though if you want any chance of success in actually...

    PH1: The Darque Demense (Bront judging)

    Eleria Moonsilver [AC 16, HP 7/7, (0) Spells 1/2] Eleria listens intently as the man describes the task at hand, trying to recall anything that she had previously heard about the name Darque before. As the daughter of a merchant, she was trained not to accept the first amount offered, so she...
  11. Deus Ex Machina

    City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn X

    Valdaris leans back in his chair and listens to the man’s speech, weighing up whether to graciously accept the offer or tell Thorne to take his stupid tests and shove ‘em somewhere unpleasant. In the end, he decides against taking any action. Instead, he prods Taelythenihel forward, speaking to...
  12. Deus Ex Machina

    City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn X

    "Yeah.... we'll see..." Valdaris grunts, though he is not at all bothered with the elves. Just the smug merchant, or financier, or whatever he was.
  13. Deus Ex Machina

    City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn X

    Valdaris is oblivious to the conversation in elven, though he is not particularly interested anyway. Elves were known to be an arrogant race, so it came as no surprise that they now discussed things amongst themselves. Barely acknowledging Ruuds return, he continues to wait for some kind of...

    "Don't bother giving chase, druid. You're wasting your breath. Taelythenihel here seems to think it's some kind of trick!" OOC: Said as Valdaris walks back to the inn.
  15. Deus Ex Machina

    City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn X

    Valdaris is unmoved at the mention of the bard. They generally had little use in his line of work, so missing her was no great loss. “Well, perhaps your paths will cross at some later date… Though bards are a strange breed. They seem to value much that is unimportant to the rest of us! As for...

    City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn X

    “Huh? Uh, yeah.” Valdaris replies, still looking somewhat confused at the recent turn of events. Though, Taelythenihel’s offer is by far the best for now, so he grabs his beer and joins her. When he reaches her, he places the tankard on the table and slumps down into a chair opposite. He then...

    City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn X

    OOC: Yes. I expected as much... Still, one must play one's character. :p Posted BTW.

    PH1: The Darque Demense (Bront judging)

    Eleria Moonsilver [AC 16, HP 7/7, (0) Spells 1/2] Uncertain of where they are being led, Eleria notes the name of the store and follows the two men into the shop. At her age, she is still quite impetuous and has barely thought of any danger that might be present, but the idea of following them...
  19. Deus Ex Machina

    City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn X

    Moments after Taelythenihel, Valdaris returns to the inn looking tired and disgruntled. He marches straight over to the bar and orders a drink to quench his thirst as looks around the inn and reflects on the situation. OOC: 'Nock, you're a slippery devil. That was a good one you pulled on us! :o

    Valdaris shrugs, then it dawns on him that Taelythenihel is a practitioner or the arcane arts and that she may have such means of communication at her disposal. He takes one more glace at the back of the barbarian disappearing into the distance, before deciding that it would be folly for him to...
