Ordechai: "Biz Sawda?" (Diplomacy Check: =17)Elder Tribesman: (Appraise Check: =14, FAIL) The elderly tribesman stares at the gleaming coin for a moment then nods, barking something harsh at the two spear-wielding youth's who take a step back from the bars. The elderly tribesman approaches the bars, holding the skull-bowl of carved turkey out like an offering. Ordechai also steps forward, hooking the bowl with his hook-and-stump as he places the coin in the elders other hand with his... when suddenly the elder clutches Ordechai's hand around the wrist! Elder Tribesman: (Strength Check to Hold Grapple: =23)Ordechai: (Strength check to resist Grapple: = 5, FAIL) Ordechai cries out in alarm and attempts to yank his arm back, yet cannot budge. The elderly tribesman seemingly has the grip and strength of an iron golem as his eyes roll upwards towards the back of his head while his other hand twitches in deranged spasms as he begins to mutter the incantations of an ancient spell! (Requires both Verbal & Somatic components apparently) [Svexyn, Wrenwil: Roll Initiative and declare actions. Be aware that any attempt to rush to Ordechai's aid or otherwise interfere with the spell casting may provoke a crossbow attack from Kumbakarna's guards atop the walkway beside you.]</blockquote>
