City of the Spider Queen

Seeing that Aden is ready to leave, Dargun leaps out of his chair and joins him. Hoping that their actions will get the others moving.

Renard places a bookmark in his book and stows it away. "I believe we have enough information to begin a preliminary investigation. Lord Morn, are you certain there's no one in the area you might recommend as a contact to begin our research into the attacks?"
 

"No, and I am sorry for that. Our divinations have led us to be certain the drow came from the crypts. But I don't know what you will find there." Lord Morn says rising to see you all to your mounts.

"If I didn't have so much to do here I would have gotten a few friends together myself, and investigated." he sighs once outside. Everyone can tell by his voice that he would rather be braving dark crypts with the drow and possibliy the dead than staying behind.

"May the gods watch over you all, and see you return." he says by way of farewell.

[sblock=OOC] Ok a riding off post from everyone to let me know you are ready (accept from perrinmiller I know he is ready :p), and we will see to the meat of this adventure. [/sblock]
 

As Aden slowly walks to the mounts, dragging his leg occasionally, a slight mumble, little more than a short grumble, can be overheard. Just before the door closes, Lai leaps through and rushes to shelter underneath Aden's cloak. Both man and cat take in the cool night's air.
 

Talhia Shen, human beguiler

Talhia bows her head to Lord Morn, smiling sweetly.

"We'll be sure to tell you all about it on our return," she says with apparent confidences. Then she turns to leave with the others.

((OOC: riding out...))
 

Platinus, Human Druid

The druid basks in the sun as the group steps back outside. "The tennants of the undead not withstanding, if we find that undead are involved it might to have a couple augment crystals of truedeath commisioned from your crafters for the others."

Platinus places a few of his items on the ground in front of him and morphs into his large dinosuar form. He give a throaty call, and Slash comes running over from the stables to join him. He picks up the items from the ground, reattaching them in their proper places, his shield floating out before him. He holds out a small, metallic glob and closes his eyes. It swirls out into a set of topaz yellow crystals that float out into the configuration of a suit of armor hovering just over the surface of his platinum hide. "We'll let you know what we find." His voice is now much deeper and he croaks as he speaks with the vocal cords of the dinosaur.

Lai still screams and runs for cover everytime Platinus shifts form, and Aden quickly picks her up and gently slides her into his bag.
 

Renard puts on his wide-brimmed traveling hat and, clutching a symbol of the wayfaring god Shaundakul, quietly takes his place among his companions.

Just out of Lord Morn's earshot, he remarks...
[sblock=Knowledge roll]Throughout this scene, Renard was reading about the drow who live nearby in his Tome of Worldly Knowledge. This grants him a +5 on his Knowledge (Dungeoneering) check, for a total of 1d20+28=36. HM, please have Renard say something suitably alarming and ominous about the drow to start our adventure. I am your exposition mouthpiece. ;)[/sblock]
 

Slash looks over as the screaming familiar disappears into the casters pack, then back to Platinus. In deep gravelly draconic she states quite matter of factly. "Ir kear si geou catch batobot scivarning moxt snack, vur coita bleeting ivah geou qe japaqed ihk bensvelk." The sotny cast to her thick hide rolling smoothly over her braided muscles. The platinum form of the druid bucks with very disturbing laughter. "Coi ornla ouith Aden mobi vi jennu deal sjek wux tira though."

OOC - if your character speaks Draconic, and you know where the translator is, feel free to eavesdrop. I'm just ammusing myself before we officially take off. :p
 

Durgun, accompanies the others to the mounts, thankful that the incessant yapping is over and that they are finally going to get some action. He is pleased to see that Lord Morn has taken his size and weight into account and provided him with a mule. The trouble is that the mule will slow the the others down and he can walk faster. After pondering for a few minutes, he decides that they are not really in that much of a rush, so he climbs on the mule and says "Ready when you ist."
