Ashy's Oathbound Campaign II, IC

[Voadam]

"I believe our questions should be directed at finding out who sent the asheraki, what their mission was, whether it involved Barbello or Isror, and who the wand wielder was and what his capabilities are in case he tracks us down later seeking revenge for his lost men. As I mentioned before, whether ransom is a tradition among the warring factions here is an unanswered question that could give us an honorable option on what to do with prisoners as opposed to enslaving them, killing them outright, or freeing them. Similarly if Ossian is an honorable lord then transferring our prisoner to him is an option. PC, I have no direct interrogation magic, do you have any charm or other type of magic that can elicit the information we desire from the prisoner? Or perhaps lieutenant you have some relevant powers?"

 

[Ashy]

Tristan wanders over to the clerics, ready for his own personal dose of healing magic. He sits down and leans his back against the wall, his sword resting across his knees as he looks around the cave.

"It is unfortunate about the creature who escaped. With Isror and his companions all gone, this could be a useful location for our own purposes. We might wish to remember it for later, should we ever be in need of a refuge in the future. Still, we must now establish a course of action. Before the asherake awakens, I suggest we decide what we hope to learn from it, and. . ."

He looks pointedly at his companions and PC.

"exactly how far we propose to go in order to get the information. And then we must still decide what we do next, going to Ossian, or accompanying PC seem to be our two most likely choices, unless someone has other suggestions."

P.C. replies, "I can guarantee that whatever you do to it'll be tame compared to what it would have done to us... I say slowly cut out is lungs until it gives you the information you need and then finish it as slowly and painfully as you can...." The frey spits on the asherake and then helps Baja russle up some grub. Soon, he finds what appears to be dried tack of some sort and some unleavened bread, stored in an old backpack beneath some moth-eaten blankets. He also locates a small keg of ale and some turnip-like roots. He looks to Baja, holding one aloft. "I wonder if these are any good boiled?"

 

[Ashy]

"Although I will not stand for the creature to be treated with cruelty, despite what it has done."

At these words, P.C. snorts and shakes his head, but otherwise says nothing...

Meanwhile, Raak has begin sniffing the body of the asherake greedily, drawing light blue motes of something from its form and into its nostrils...

((DAMN IT!!! This site is eating my posts lately. I know I posted on this site before Ashy's bit with PC because I forgot to put my characters speech in teal and when I went to edit it, it crashed on me and now its gone. This is like the third or fourth time this has happened to me in the last couple days! It is starting to really tick me off))

"I had never learned how to invade someone's mind. It is not a power I wanted to know. I had always thought that a being had a right to keep their thoughts to themself. But now I do regret that choice. I cannot tell you this being's thoughts. The best I can do is try to give it an aversion to one of us in hopes that that person can act as an enforcer to help intimidate it durring an interrogation." The xeph replies.

Noticing Raak's antics, Tristan gestures at the lizard while calling out to Kiera.

"Raak, come here please. Kiera, I suggest you look for something magical on our prisoner. It would be bad if he has some means of getting free secreted about his body."

[ooc - Ashy, Ferrix has already mentioned a detect magic spell. . .]

 

[Ashy]

Noticing the equipment that Baja has secured, and once Kiera has tended to any wounds that her companions have sustained, she will cast detect magic and look them over.

Kiera [sblock]

• 3 chain shirts
• 3 suits of 1/2 plate (that look exactly like this
• 3 serrated bastard swords
• 1 thick silver braclet (looks like a large, braided cord)
• 1 plain onyx ring
• 1 anklet (seven tiny, dark colored stone skulls on a string of mithril)
• 11 small grey metallic disks
  
  Are all magical

P.C. looks up from his backpack, from which he is producing a pot and shakes his head. "Nay, but I've got several sharp blades and hooks that should do the trick." He hefts his silver capped forearm proudly...

Raak seems to ignore Tristan, but continues sniffing hungrily...

OOC: Sorry to hear that, Vendetta - I hope it all clears up soon. I spoke to Pcat tonight (actually, I played in his DoD game!!!) and he said that the new servers should be up and running very soon!

 

[hafrogman]

Hauling himself painfully to his feet, Tristan walks over to the lizard and picks him up in his arms.

"Now Raak, if you want to stick around with us and our ready food supply, you're going to have to learn to mind when I tell you something."
