[Adventure] A Chef's Request (DM:renau1g; judge: covaithe)

[renau1g]

"The chief tricksss to keep usss safe, he liesss that we findsss lotsss of gold here. Oh yeah, dragonmen, yeah like him. Big, scary, angry, brown. There's three of them, but theysss ssstrong and scary. Theysss maybe waiting not far away. Ok, you gotta talk to Nibbik if you want to get usssesss help." he replies.

Calisto turns toward the his companions and start to speak in Common. "The kobold tells they are working for three brown dragonborn. They are slave here. He is happy we got rid of the dragon threat but there is still those three in the way. And over that, we still got no Ghoul yet. We go after those three?"

She then turns toward the kobold and she starts again to speak in Draconic "Have you found a library in this cave? We want to find information from the books, and maybe get rid of some inhabitant of that place."

 

[renau1g]

"Library? Hmmm I jussst be guarding up here. They been all excited about sssomething but them dragonsssmensss not tellsss usss nothingsss" he replies.

-''Ghouls! Where ghouls! Why is so difficult finding living dead! Maybe chef can kook with lizard spit instead?''

"The goliath got a point. What are we doing here? We search for corpse eating undead and not for lizard tongues or something!"

[sblock=ooc]

He is there (aura bonus), but I don't know if he can do a check because of the language barrier.
I also would like to regain my Ardent Surges first.

J'ryi interjects, mentioning a forgotten issue. "This isn't adding up. One of your 'friends' ran off into the cave shouting for help after he nearly took off my head with a stinkpot. Who would he be going to for help if you are indeed the victims here?" He lowers his head to the lesser dragonkin's face, and growls at him. "Maybe you were ordered to do so. Maybe you were afraid - or maybe you're lying." Glancing upwards, he mentions, "Besides, I doubt we still have the element of surprise. We should praise our fortune for not having been attacked already - trying to surprise those ahead is probably asking for too much."

[sblock=OOC]J'ryi will make an intimdate check to further vet this kobold's story, not caring that he's probably reinforcing the image of dragonborns being abusive demons in this kobold's mind. Intimidate - 1d20+8=21[/sblock]

 

[renau1g]

"Well... he ran off 'cause the chiefsss isss theresss, if the dragon killsss you we be punissshed for not telling them youse here. " the kobold says, his eyes wide with fright.

 

[Velmont]

"The ghouls will probably be found in the library, but there is the kobold in the way, that's the problem. And the kobold are in our way becaus ethat dragon and a few dragonborn doesn't want us and put them in our way." explains Calisto to Gorghor.

 

[Mal Malenkirk]

-''So go library. Sure be nice if other ingredients attacks us on our way to ghoul ingredient. Be like a market.''

 

[stonegod]

Fissure, continuing to restrain the kobold, looks at the others curiously. Go? Stay?
