DT's Old School Campaign- (Chapter 4: The Guild and The Girl)

"I can cut retreat off, if we can find a horse to steal," Hilmdyn says. "And Rovan's sorcery would be of great help. If we're lucky, they're all knocked out, and if only a few are, it still reduced the number in our way as we steal the gems away from those who steal from the dead."

The darkest part of the Street of Crafts was after the Wayfarer's Inn, several yards south from a glass shop and a sharp bend. Very few people lit up their homes late at night in the area, creating a pervasive gloom.

"Here," Lola motioned to the boys, "Follow me." She led them to a particularly dark part of the stress, one where there was a sharp corner nearby. "This would be the best place for us, I think. Around that corner, they would never see us."

Erin gave his own advice after hearing the plan. "So we can probably steal our own wagon from stables connected from a tavern, or perhaps outside from one of the nearby farms. I suppose wherever you get it, you don't want it to be from a place you frequent."

Rovan is struck by inspiration and slaps Quinn on the shoulder "Oy, sailor. How well could we get our hands on a big fishing net eh? Rather than a cart, get a net. Leave it down and well anchored, we they show up raise it in a jiffy eh? I bet we could raise a net faster than get a cart out with the right rigging."

 

[Scott DeWar]

"As Quinn was drinking the last of his watered rum when he gets slapped on the back, Quinn coughs for a bit before replying, "Aye! and me thinks I can still rig a net fer yees. A net bein a lot less skittish then a horse and cart and probably not bein likely to carry a sentance of being drawn and quartered or keel hulled."

 

[Queenie]

"Do we really think a net is strong enough to not break as a wagon runs through it? How are we going to anchor it and to what that will be strong enough to hold it?"

ooc: horses are skittish by nature and the sensation of the net against their faces will definate cause them to balk. you can make a horse walk backwards with your thumb on its chest, I have even done this to make one of my boss's egyptian arabians get into a trailor. and their faces are very sensitive.

"Horses are skittish by nature, and the sensation of the net against their faces will definitely cause them to balk," Hilmdyn offers. "You can make a horse walk backwards just by putting your thumb on its chest, and their faces are very sensitive."

OOC: Thanks for providing me with the info I said Hilmdyn has.
