Sorry. For some reason I had Haedyn pegged as another bright and shiny soldier of goodness. Still trying to get everyone's name and character squared away.

He must be wearing his sunday best. Thats what threw Hiitar.

thotd
Every time I see that name I have to doubletake and make sure it's not Hitler. :uhoh: :confused:

Background finished. The two notes undernieth were two notes that I thought you might like Isida, and you can use them to your heart's content. Want me to park her in the RG and wait for a call?

[sblock=Isida]Cool :) I did update the background a bit to flesh it out a bit more. I'll park her there. Hope I get a chance to get in the game :)

I think I made a goof with her gear, i'll get that straightened out. She has a few items that could eventualy be considered legendary, if I understand how that works. I hope to aquire the books soon.[/sblock]
 

OK, before I forget. Hiitar's thoughts on getting D. out of gaol

Option 1: You don't have to like it, just do it. - Use forged orders to have him released into Hiitars custody. Probably the most effective, but the most risky. Orders like that would be hard to fake (?) and easy to check (?)

Option 2: Old Business - Hiitar will claim a blood feud between his family and that of D's. D's grandfather usurped Hiitar's grandfathers possession of some territory, betrayed them, ruined his family, that sort of thing. Hiitar has come to see D. before he dies; to gloat basically. Simpler, in that it is harder to check, and perhaps less of 'a big ask' to just be permitted to see D. Of course, it doesn't get D. out. That part will have to be improvised.

Ideally, Hiitar would have D. out before the attack starts. but failing that, if he can get to D. first, Hiitar can direct the others to the right place. Mind Lock? or something like that. One way or another, Thunder would need a way to home in on Wind.

If greasing palms is a fairly common part of Dominion life, Hiitar's going to ask the king for some jewelery and magical items. A +1 daggar is worth 2,000+ gp.

Hiitar will wear a long clock and broad brimmed hat that works to conceal his features. If he can't get both D. and himself out, perhaps he can get D. out as himself. Hat of disguise is probably a bit suspicious, if discovered. Even better would be to have 'a third member' who could conviniently be made to disappear, or who could be left in the cell in D's place. Anyone got any unwanted tame zombies lying around?

Some way of making D. invisible so he can be snuck out. Dust of Disappearance. Ring of Invisibilty. Problem is I seem to remember Isida saying they had beasties that could sniff out or see invisible creatures. Would be a sensible precaution in a fantasy goal I suppose.

Unleashed, what is Haedyn's alignment. Hiitar intends to ensure both characters have the same story. Alignment occured to me as something that might trip them up. We can work around a good alignment if necessary.

So, getting in, getting D. getting out. We need a rendevous point.

Thats about it for the moment.

Haedyn is Neutral Good, but I don't think it will matter too much, as good people would serve in the Dominion's ranks, paying lip service to the cultural norms, too scared to make a stand against them knowing what will happen if they do.

As for story, I don't imagine Haedyn will be talking all that much, being a lowlander bodyguard for a tiefling, though knowing the Valhedrin language will add some authenticity to him being a citisen of the Dominion.
 

So you guys are using Charm and Guile instead of Stealth? Dude, Ssiran can help with that quite a bit. Assuming a kinder read of my racial tranform that says since I picked human I can change which type of human I look like, Ssiran can turn into some other type of human and come along. He has Suggestion, so if Hiitar can say anything even vaguely reasonable, his victims will do it.
