[QUOTE="kinem, post: 5280009, member: 24234"] With 'beggars' to the front, sides and rear, the image of Torensecu nearer the front and the real man being guarded in back, the group makes its way down the dimly lit streets. After a while, you are heading down a street next to an ancient wall, a ruin once part of a larger structure. This street is relatively wide and mud-free. In a cul-de-sac near the wall, a group of four men are playing cards on the ground; a few copper and silver coins are stacked in front of each, with a lantern in the middle. Such impromptu gambling is not unusual in the city, and the 'beggars' don't seem overly concerned. The group moves past. Suddenly, one of the gamblers whistles loudly, and the doors of a couple of buildings swing open. Black-veiled men bearing swords pour out and surround the group! Before you can react, the veiled men begin attacking! Further down the street, one of the veiled men casts a spell, which has no visible effect. The veiled men quickly bring down four of the 'beggars' with vicious hacks of their longswords. Both copies of Torenescu, and both get attacked, with the false image sustaining a couple of hits and the real one a sword slash. Barek is also struck (ooc: 9 damage), and when he is wounded, the Torenescu image vanishes. The 'gamblers' stand and draw daggers. One of the veiled man, near the spellcaster, pulls off his hood. It's Rezak! He steps up to the hooded spellcaster and brings his dagger out and up to the man's hooded throat. [COLOR="Sienna"]"Calls 'em off or ye wills be dae first ta go."[/COLOR] Rezak says, his voice full of malice. ooc: The other PCs now act [sblock=map][code].................. ..........BBBB.... ..........dBBB.... ..BBdB....BBBB.... ..B..B...LBBBB.... ..B..B...R........ ..B..B............ ..B..B....B.BBXX.. ..B..B..b.B...XX.. ..B.......B...XX.. ..B..B.vvvB.BBXX.. ..B..Bv>9v....XX.. ..B..Bbt9v..mmXX.. ..B..B.Kbv..mmXX.. ..BB.BhTA.....XX.. ....v9vEc.BdBBXX.. .....v.v..BBBBXX.. ..BBdB.b..BBBBXX.. ..BBBB....BBBBXX.. ..BBBB....dBBBXX.. ..BBBB....BBBBXX.. ..BBBd....BBBBXX.. ..BBBB....BdBBXX.. ..BBBB........XX.. ..BBBB........XX.. ..................
