CLOSED! Rhun's Greyhawk ALPHA Game (ToEE)

“Well, let me put it this way, they are not just bandits, but rather some crazy, demon-worshipping cult. Or something like that. The bandit-activity you speak of, is likely coming from them as well.”

 

[Rhun]

[sblock=Coraine]
Although the vast aura of evil that permeates the area nearly overwhelms your sense, your training and focus allows you to penetrate the oppresive fog and scan the half-orc before you. You detect no trace of evil from this Two Axe.

[Manzanita]

"I see." says the half-orc slowly, lowering his axe. "You don't look like crazed demon worshipers. What are you all doing in such a adangerous place?"

 

[Boddynock]

Reassured both by his sense of the half-orc's moral state and also by Two Axe's behaviour, Coraine steps forward, his own weapon slung at his belt and his arms spread wide.

"We are here to put an end to the evil of this place ... and we welcome all who would join us in this task. I am Coraine Vagrius, paladin of the Invincible One."

He puts out his hand and clasps Two Axe's arm in the warrior greeting.

 

[Manzanita]

Two Axe's remains wary, scarce believing that he's found allies where he expected only enemies. In his life, who has accepted him for who he is? The orcs only kept him as a servent, then as a warrior. Jessica took him, but only for want of anyone else. Her father, Frendor Almat, did not take to him, and sent him on this quest to die. Yet this group was accepting him as he was. Perhaps they were the key to his future. With their help, perhaps he really could deliver a crushing blow to the bandits. That would prove himself to the elder Almat. And that would open the door to his beloved.

He smiles a tusky grin.

"I am with you. I assure you I sincerely want to destroy the evil in this place, and end the reign of the roving bandits, as well as whatever may be behind them. I will lay my life on the line for this task. And if you truly share this same goal, you will find no more loyal companion than I, Two Axe of the ..." he was no longer of the Slow Death clan. He was, umm..."Two Axe, representing the merchants of Dyvers."

 

[Scotley]

Verdis Human (Suel) Warlock

Finally lowering his crossbow, Verdis says to the half-orc, "Well, I guess these guys have enough muscle that it wouldn't really make sense to put a lone spy out here for us to capture. You are a brave soul to face down something like this alone. I am Verdis. Very pleased to meet you."

 

[Manzanita]

"Alone?" Two Axe looks a little embarassed. "It's true. I don't have 20 archers hidden. Just, um, being careful. Sometimes I wonder how my employer expected me to succeed on my own. But I'm sure our odds will increase with numbers. Well met, Verdis."

 

[Thanee]

Dara

Maybe your employers didn't actually want you to succeed... the thought only crosses Dara's mind, though.

“A shame, twenty archers would have been useful. But nonetheless you are a welcome addition to our cause. I'm Dara.”

 

[Rhun]

"Alone?" Solomon looks a little embarassed. "

Character confusion? Or did you rename Two Axe?

 

[Scotley]

OOC: Adding to the confusion--I guess Verdis failed a listen check, I forgot all about the 20 archers...
