B6: The Veiled Society - IC

Mario replies "I see. I may be willing to join you ... but you no doubt will be recognized, staggered or not. An urbane half-orc, a gnome, an elven swordsman, an elven babe, and a man who was initiated into the Veiled Society is not exactly a faceless group of typical working class folks."

Mario replies "I see. I may be willing to join you ... but you no doubt will be recognized, staggered or not. An urbane half-orc, a gnome, an elven swordsman, an elven babe, and a man who was initiated into the Veiled Society is not exactly a faceless group of typical working class folks."

Barek sighs. "You see our dilemma, then," he says through the link. "I never managed to learn any proper disguise magics--what performer doesn't want to be recognized, after all? My best thought might be to use my compulsion magics to make a new 'friend' out of a patron who might act as our spy, unless you have a means to make us, well, not us?"

OOC: Barek doesn't have any ranks in Disguise, sadly, though obviously he has performance skills and a good Charisma. Should have taken Disguise Self for my new spell, I guess, but what's done is done. Too bad Fascinate only works on 1 person. Charm Person it is, unless someone else has another plan?
 

Caridoc has kept quiet until now. Leaving the others to sort things. At this point he suggests "Mario. You and your boys should fit right in here. So I suggest you go first. Once your established, we go in has a group and see what happens. Perhaps Rezak should lurk out the back in case our red-headed friend decides to do a bunk."
 


Mario replies "We blend in better, but during the fight last night some of them saw our faces, too. So if they're on the lookout for trouble, it's still risky.

Besides, who's this red-headed friend of yours? And what are we to look for?"

"Akiros Sonnos. A shipwright. We'd made a tenuous link between him and some missing Kobolds connected to Lucia Vorloi's murder. It was in tracking him down that we came across the note that tipped us to this meeting. I can't imagine The Veiled Society would have its meeting in full view in a public place, so if you're willing to risk a quick walkthrough, we'd be looking for back rooms. For that matter, if we found where a back room might be, we might be able to find a better way in than the front door..."
 

"I'm not too familiar with magic" Mario admits. "Would your spell allow me to talk to you while I'm inside and you're outside? If so, I'll go in with the boys and sculp it out. If I see your redhead, or anything else of interest, I'll tell you. And if we need help, I'll holler, and you'd darn well better come running in."

[sblock=Magic Question]From the spell description: "1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal (or a thin sheet of lead), or 3 feet of wood or dirt blocks the spell. The message does not have to travel in a straight line. It can circumvent a barrier if there is an open path between you and the subject, and the path's entire length lies within the spell's range."

Since there are windows on the bar, and a swinging door, for that matter, I think the 'not a straight line' element means Barek can still communicate through the link while Mario's in the bar, but figure I should make sure before giving an IC reply.[/sblock]

"The spell should be able to wind a path into the bar, yes," Barek says, "I'll test the connection as soon as you enter. If we find we can't hear you, and you don't immediately return outside, we won't wait for the yell."
