Emerald's PbP game

Jarrad: It will cost you 30 gp to be healed fully.



Calzone stares at you all blankly when you request your reward. But we have already paid the reward to V'Skar a couple of hours ago. He said that he had cleared out the creatures lair and even had three of their young that he brought as proof. So I am sorry, if you did indeed help him you will have to take it up with him for your portion.

 

[Capellan]

"So ... he killed the young, then claimed that meant he'd killed the adults too ... and you believed him?

You're not very bright, are you?"

 

[Emerald]

No, No, No, he brought the young in alive as proof, no one can get close to their lair if the adults were still alive, besides there is no way one man could carry back the bodies of two such creatures. He told us we only had to go down the road a ways and we would find the bodies. So we had our local temple cleric scry the area he directed us to and they reported that they saw two beheaded creatures. We took him at his word that he had killed them since he knew right where they were and paid him his reward. I say again if you did indeed help him slay these creatures you will need to take it up with him for you portion of the money.

 

[Capellan]

"Whatever. How far is it to the next town?"

 

[Krug]

Jarrad fumes. "If I find him I'll stick a sword in him."

Jarrad pays the 30 gp to be healed fully.

 

[Capellan]

Jarrad fumes. "If I find him I'll stick a sword in him."

"That's one option. Personally, I just plan to knife his reputation in every tavern from here to home. Once I'm done, he'll never be able to claim another reward again."

 

[MerakSpielman]

"I'm not sure whether to be angry or excited. I mean, on the one hand, our spectacular reward has been stolen out from under our noses, but on the other, we're still so early in our adventuring career and we already have an evil arch-nemesis!"

Kaltide suddenly re-notices Calzone, "Er, not that I'm an adventurer. Not at all. I'm just tagging along for the food and to do any fishing that needs to get done. Yessir-ee. Not any kind of real adventurer at all.

"So, which way did this V'Skar go? What does he look like? I don't like being cheated out of hard-earned cash."

 

[Manzanita]

Reienrt

"Yes, Calzone, here are their heads & our bite & scratch wounds to prove we killed them. I'll admit that stinker did help us, but we certainly deserve our portion of the rewards. Are you able to direct us to where he might be?"

 

[Krug]

"We won't rest until he gives up our share of the treasure," says Jarrad.

 

[Emerald]

Well, he seemed like a nice enough fellow at the time. I hope you find him and can settle this civilly. I am sure it was just a misunderstanding. He said he was headed for Fy. He is hoping to find a buyer or trainer for the young creatures he took. I think he should have just killed them but since he caught them I guess he can do what he wants with them. Feel free to stay the Night at the Slippery Fish again tonight before you head off.
