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

Lola nodded to Liar and returned to her place among the Wilders. She waited some time before speaking to them in a low voice, only when it was certain no one else would hear her. "Someone should ask around, saying they have a friend who enjoyed someone named Vera and if possible set up a "night" with her. Then whomever that is," she looked pointedly at Hill and Edvan, "Could talk to her about the situation. Maybe she has some information that will help us get her out of here. The rest of us need to stick to our roles I think."

Richelle nodded in agreement. "Trying to fit in would be wise. Well, I'm off to enjoy myself... I think I'll hit the sauna before trying some gambling...". With that, the old woman curtseyed and walked downstairs.

As the group tried to determine what to do, Quinn was seen discussing something with a rough-looking bouncer. There was some snickering from the two and a nod of understanding. The man pointed to several collared girls being pushed around and laughed at by three mercenaries.

"Yeah, I might have something like that. I've got a new girl added to our list of slaves. She's still a bit shy, but she'll wise up like the rest of them. She's the tall one over there, by the half-orc mercenaries, but she'll be expensive. 100 gold for the night gets you a chance to do what the others have not yet the coin for. Unless you want one of them to get her..."

The girl the man pointed to looked familiar. Suddenly, Quinn realized that he was looking at the girl Edvan used to by flowers from. She had disappeared after he took a chance to flirt with her, and Edvan had grown sullen after thinking that he had scared her off. It would actually seem that her fate was much different and much for the worse. Hopefully Edvan doesn't notice her because he might react quite badly...

Lola looked to the masked Rovan. She whispered in his ear, [Sblock]"Perhaps we should also try to enjoy ourselves as one of our station would. Any ideas?" she asked mischievously. [/sblock]

Rovan whispered back
[sblock] "I am your humble and loyal bodyguard milady. I am here to serve you in whatever manner you see fit." replies Rovan and Lola can see by his eyes he is smiling back. [/sblock]

Lola nodded her head, the sparkle in her own eyes too. She put the serious look back on her face and began wandering around the Pleasure Dome, giving herself and Rovan a tour of the areas she had yet to see and finding where the action was.

OOC: There is Roulette, Poker, Blackjack, the Pit Fights, tables just to have drinks, sauna, various entertainers to watch at Liar Mukang's main hall, and servants that can be hired on to wait at your beck and call.

[sblock=to the bouncer] "to whome do i have the payment sent to?"[/sblock]

Lola beckoned to Rovan and to the roulette table. It would help for them to seem like they had money to spare. She pulled some coins from her purse and approached and began playing the game of luck.

OOC: I'm assuming that all except Quinn, who already filled his small pouch, is going back to their lock boxes and getting 50gp each.

The man grinned widely and said, [darkorange]"You can pay me directly, as I'm the one assigned to watch her tonight. I'll wait here for the coin and then I'll inform her ward that she won't be coming to her quarters tonight. You're making a good choice. I have a thing against the orcish types and I'd rather see her first sold to one of our kind despite her surliness."[/color]

Rovan and Lola went to the roulette table, where a thin but somewhat brutish man hosted the table. After a couple of rounds and after ordering two glasses of wine from a servant girl they were down 10gp each (and up 10 XP each). They kept their eyes open, as did Hilmdyn and Edvan who sat at a table and purchased an ale for 1gp (and up 1 XP). A barker made an announcement, "Ladies and gentlemen! The pit has now been cleaned up from the mess Otto the Bear has made! What a gore fest that was! In half an hour Rexor and two of his Razor Company will fight against eight fierce goblins of the Grungor Clan! Rexor and his men fight for glory, while the goblins fight for their lives and freedom! Odds will be 10 to 1 in favor of Rexor and his men!"
