[Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

[Luinnar]

Bann-ur will pass for this round as well. If the others are still busy next round, then maybe he'll try busting down the door. But I'll see what happens with the guard outside first. Maybe they'll be able to lead him away first. If not, then my noisy busting down of the door might add a little pep to his step.

[sblock=OOC]Yes, I'm sure the guard will later tell them about the Oni that broke into the office and was rampaging around inside! [/sblock]

 

[Dekana]

[sblock=ooc]The young guard might fall for that, but his superiors probably wouldn't. Better if there's no evidence at all except for the guard leaving his post to go to a tavern.[/sblock]

In the Office

With Garry's help Verloc finishes what he deems to be a convincingly-forged departure form, likely to fool a much more intelligent guard than the poor sod outside. Bann-ur remains standing by the interior door.

On the Street

The guard seems persuaded by Ferris' and Alnar's assertion of safety in the numbers and lighting of a warm tavern. "'Sright. I've heard there's lots of them adventuring types at the Hanged Man. Wouldn't want little missy here to get hurt by that beast," he says with a nod at Jezebel. "Maybe we can someone as to help finish the ritual there."

A shadow of doubt crosses the young man's plain face though, as he says, "But we gotta tell someone though. Can't leave here wif that thing ramming around inside. My uncle'd kill me. I'll just go get a Watchman to keep an eye on the office, then we can go to the tavern for help..."

[sblock=New Round]Round 14

Inside
Garry: You're up!

Bann-ur: You're up!

Joox/Verloc: You're up!

Outside
Ferris: You're up!

Alnar: You're up!

Jezebel: You're up!


The guard seems to be on the verge of abandoning his post, but remains convinced that he should alert a City Watchman. It will take some dissuading to disabuse him of this, in the form of another successful group Bluff and Intimidate check vs. DC 15.

Garry and Verloc have finished up the forgery inside, and are now free to act.

No change in map since last update.

My friend Garris here Alnar motions to Ferris happens to live never the watch offices. Since he has to pick up ingredients for the ritual at his house anyway, he could alert the watch for you. Unless you trust the Oni to not attack us when you are away...

[sblock=ooc & rolls]Bluff 15, Intimidate 21

I was thinking maybe Ferris could stay behind and alert the rest of the party to what is happening?[/sblock]

 

[samursus]

"Yes indeed! I will alert the Watch immediately as I retrieve the rest of the Ritual components...hmm let's see: Dragon's liver, Gnoll's tongue, the last Lie of a dying Politician...." Ferris mumbles to himself as he retrieves his battleaxe and heads off quickly down the street, turning in the nearest dark alley, planning on returning when the guard and the others have left.

Bann-ur whispers to the others that this door is locked and their skills would be required to open it quietly.

" Alright ... ", and he takes a quick look at Bann-ur " ... really, really large man, but I must admit I am with you on this one. I don't share his sissy nor nimble hands ", he says still irritated with Verloc/Joox.

Annoying the hell out of the rogue, Garry grabs the papers from under his nose just as he finishes " Well, this ain't half bad! Now we only need the seal, to seal the deal ", the wolfman says with a huge grin before giving Verloc a friendly nudge with his elbow to the side. " If you could help Bann-ur with the door, I could check that barrel over there. What do you say? "

Not waiting for an answer, Garry moves over to the Barrel and takes a quick look inside.

[Dekana]

Jezebel nods at Ferris as he walks off. Then to the guard, she says,
"Don't worry, he can handle the rest. But we could still use an escort to the tavern..."

Verloc smiles a superficial smile at Garry while nonchalantly toying with the dagger in his belt. He doesn't grant the annoyance the pleasure of an answer, and instead he turns for the door while taking out his lock picks. Finding that Bann-Ur blocks the way to the door, he politely whispers:

"It would be my pleasure to open this door, my muscular friend, but you have to move your big corpus away from the door!"

Move: to F8
Minor action: take out thieves' tools

[Phoenix8008]

Bann-ur's eyebrows drop as he frowns in annoyance at what he perceives as a sarcastic tone coming from Verloc. He steps aside though so that the man can do what he needs to do.
