Against the Storm Part II: Luskan

"I propose that we go into the tavern and subdue the leader of the Kraken and I will teleport him and myself to this room, after he is subdued of course and then we can interrogate him, disposing of him afterwards if need be."

Elone sighs.

"It is not that simple a matter to subdue him. If he were not powerful, he would already be dead from our last encounter. He is a Betrayer, a drow elf, and Solonor only knows what other tricks he has up his sleeve besides those blasted poisons and magic."

She considers. "Still, we could likely ambush him outside the tavern - I suspect attacking him inside a civilized building would not be the best idea. But outside, Solonor will provide me the strength I need to bring him down."
 

garyh said:
"Should we, as my orc-brother rightly put it, need 'whoopin,'" Akharos offered, "my falchion is most eager for some excercise."
Ubaar goes into 'orc mode', commisserating with Akharos about how well we throw down on people when we want to..

"Aww, you remember that time.... not many can stand up to us... kick their BUTTS!... " you know, that kind of thing, ignoring the strategic discussion going on.

He pulls out of the blustery talk with Akharos when he hears Elone say:
"But outside, Solonor will provide me the strength I need to bring him down"

Ubaar responds, "Sweetness, you get me near him when he's not on a BOAT, and I'll smoke him down.
You want Strength, Ubaar's your man, by the way.
" :D
Ubaar un-ashamedly and not slickly raises his eyebrows, winking.

IC: "Is he immune to magic? Perhaps my spells might entangle him or I might summon a creature to hold him down while others subdue him? He does need to be alive does he not? Or perhaps we can just speak to his spirit when he dies?"
 

Elone nods. "The Betrayers often shake off the effects of spells. But there are many of us. It is likely we can catch him in one way or another. And yes, even the Betrayers are not beyond Solonor's grasp once they die."

She then grins at Ubaar. "Indeed, my friend. Away from water, you could knock him down from you wit alone!" She winks.

She considers. "You say you can teleport yourself? Can you do so more than once? And if you do, what sort of a target do you need?"
 

Kelnar ignors Ubaar's lack of grace, timing and play but appreciates him comment about strength

"I cannot teleport more than once today, however I can if we wait. Additionally, I need to be VERY familiar with the target. I do not think we have time to wait; Jaina is in danger and we must get to her quickly.

If Solonar allows you to speak with dead, then perhaps it would be less risky to just dispatch him and then question him...

With the strength of our party and the resistance our friend has to magic, perhaps brut force would not be bad...so long as we pick the battle field

In either case we should strike quickly and soon."

IC: "Agreed. I have some offensive spells ready and can take care of us in battle, but i am far from being a healer and more of a free spirit. That and this human form can be most irksome at times..."
 

Rana adds her advice: "Remember that he is apparently a vampire. that means that he is oging to be harder to subdue short of chaining him up, and even then, we know that he is immensely strong. Regarding using spe3lls to speak with the dead, Shar might be able to block your communications with beings in her domain.

Regardless, we need to get to him NOW...even if in the end we have to kill him and search for Jaina on our own."
 

Elone smiles. "Such a plan is acceptable to Solonor. If he is a vampire, is he weakened by holy items, or sunlight? I can provide the latter...."

"Shall we take him tonight, then? If so, are there any items that would assist us in attacking that we could locate in town?"

OOC: Have we gained any cash up to this point?
 

IC: "Such troubling things, how to hold a vampire still and question him? Can anyone charm or beguile him? I have not such powers to do that. I say rend him limb from limb and offer him sanctuary if he conceeds defeat, then return him to the Earth and be done with him."
