CLOSED Pathfinder: Rise of the Runelords, Burnt Offerings

[Fenris]

OOC: This is why I love social rogues

"Yeah, I know what you mean we were a little wary of this outfit, but it'd a hard offer to refuse eh?" replies Jovik with a smile.

"Yeah I think it's close, but I'm as in the dark as you. 'Soon' was all we were told. Though I did hear Tsuto has his little troop of goblins whipped into a frenzy down in Sandpoint. Tsuto rounded us up in various places. He says he on some 'special' mission for Her. He's Her favorite right?"[/sblock] asks Joivk with a conspiratorial wink to Orik.

"So is Lyrie in? best to meet the team and all I guess." in a more nervous tone Jovik adds, "and, is, uh, is Nualia in?

Danth takes a step behing Jokad, and cunningly slides his holy symbol of Sarenae beneath the neck of his shirt. Then, he turns slightly toward the man, so the symbol of Sarenae upon the face of his shield cannot be seen. Danth wasn't sure, but he figured the man was smart enough to know that a follower of the Dawnflower wouldn't be joining this group.

Kael just kneels down as Jovik talks, petting the side of Mal and listening to the conversation.

If something were to go awry, then Kael will react accordingly, but for now he is just another comrade in arms.

"Look, Lyrie is going to be north, in her lab, no doubt doing something weird. Naulia will be down below. She is always down below. Man, I hate this place. Hate being cooped up here waiting. You can't go up, because the goblins stink, and their manners are ... yeuch! You can't even go and sit out in the room with the open cave entrance because that THING ... the Tentamort, or whatever it is called, is likely to come along and eat you. Then at the end of this corridor you have a bunch of goblin harlots, generally getting nailed by Bruthazmus. Life here is not glamourous. I am giving it 24 hours, and if there is no update on plans by then, I am bailing."

He stands for a few seconds, observing you all.

"Good luck guys. I guess I will see you again in a few hours, when you give up looking for answers and consign yourself to hanging around waiting for something, anything to happen. Oh, and I hope you like pickled food. It is all you are getting"

He finishes that with a laugh, before moving to close his door.

OOC: You can stop him closing his door by asking more questions. If you don't I will assume he goes back to his room.

 

[Fenris]

"Alright Orik, see you soon. If you cut out though, let us know, I don't want to get stuck as the last man on the sinking ship." replies Jovik with a smile as he watches Orik re-enter his room.

As the door closes, Jovik signals the group back to the main hall, where they can see all the doors, but can't be overheard. In a whisper Jovik turns to the others.

"Well, we have a pretty good idea now. We need to find a way down, perhaps in Nualia's room. But we can't search there without dealing with Orik first. Do we take him out, or leave him, or let him leave?" asks Jovik to the group.

 

[Rhun]

"He did not seem evil to me," says Danth with a shrug. "A sellsword of questionable repute, to be sure, but not of the same foulness that we have come to expect here. I say we give him the opportunity to leave."

OOC: If you do want to let him go, feel free to start the role-play of it. I will chip in as required.

 

[Friadoc]

"That's a hard call," says Kael quietly. With a look to Danth, he adds, "As you said, he is just a mercenary."

"However, if we leave him, he'll be a mercenary at our back," says Kael with a sigh. "Either way, it is a hard call to make."

 

[Fenris]

OOC: If you do want to let him go, feel free to start the role-play of it. I will chip in as required.

OOC: We know how Jokad would vote
Hewligan: Does Orik's door open into the room, or out into the hallway?

 

[hewligan]

All of the doors open into the rooms.

Note - decisions today, or I will assume the next move.
