City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn IX

[Salix]

"Action?" asks the barbarian. "I've never found any action here. The last time I came by, I recruited some adventurers to accompany me up North, but I've never actually seen anyone else come hire anyone. Heck, I didn't hire the ones I got, either. They came along for free!" He laughs and slaps Talbin gently on the back.

"No. I wouldn't bet you'll get far hanging around here. I'll be hitting the road again myself soon. I'm hunting werewolves. Do any of you have leads as to where some might be?"

"I know what you mean, I was stuck in here for what seemed like eternity last time. Our last venture was neither profitable nor exciting", his forehead crinkles, "Werewolves, have you talked to Lucian here, he seems to have a fetish with that sort of thing". His face breaks into a wide grin at the mention of the word fetish.

 

[Heckler]

"Russna?" Rinya comments, glancing at Dagobert. "I am NOT going back to that library. My head still hurts from when Ridik dragged me in there."

"I know what you mean, I was stuck in here for what seemed like eternity last time.

His face breaks into a wide grin at the mention of the word fetish.

"Oh?" Rowan glances around. "Who's Lucian again?"

 

[Dungannon]

Lucien scans the bar at the mention of his name. "I am Lucien Reyes. Lycanthropes, while truly incarnations of evil, are not my chosen prey. I hunt those beings caught between this world and the afterlife.

 

[Patlin]

Joe looks up from the bar at the talk of 'chosen prey.'

"I don't suppose any of you prefer to hunt land sharks? There are some disturbing rumors drifting down from the north, though no one looking for adventurers yet, so far as I've heard."

 

[Lazlow]

Dagobert looks puzzled. "Land sharks, you say?"

 

[Manzanita]

Lucien scans the bar at the mention of his name. "I am Lucien Reyes. Lycanthropes, while truly incarnations of evil, are not my chosen prey. I hunt those beings caught between this world and the afterlife.

"'caught between this world and the afterlife?' What sort of things would those be?" asks Rowan.

He glances at Joe. "What's a landshark?"

 

[Patlin]

"I'm not sure how much is true and how much is just story," the Bartender says, "but I've heard they're some sort of shark that tunnels through earth rather than swimming through the sea. Horribly dangerous, is what they say."

 

[Manzanita]

Rowan shakes his head. "Crazy, dangerous world, this is. I just got back from the North. Wouldn't mind heading back and visiting those elves." he smiles at Rinya.

 

[Patlin]

ooc: Rowan's obviously still a self starter, and still flirting with any female within a 200 yard radius. If he forms up an expedition of some kind, I'd be willing to DM it. Just let me know who is coming and some of the goals and I'll submit an adventure proposal. The bullette rumor was for a seperate purpose, and need not be a part of the expeditions plans.
