"Hello friend, it's good to see you. I was just about to say hello until I saw you walk into this shop and figured I'd just come in and greet you like civilized human beings."

[sblock=OOC]Ok so a few things going on here, if the charm worked he'll be friendly to me so we should probably treat him as such until we are proven otherwise. I have a local check of +8, and bardic knowledge +7 to see if I know this guy too. A sense motive check of +3 in case he's faking, a bluff of +11 if I know he's faking, or a diplomacy of +15 if my sense motive fails (since I assume it worked and will talk like a friend). Whew, that's a mouthful, let's see how this plays out[/sblock]
 

[sblock="Hashkavak"]Bardic Knowledge: Why, of course, it strikes you as odd that you didn't recognize him before now, but maybe you needed a clearer look. Victor Saint-Demain is a master inquisitive, known to step in on cases that no one else can solve and has yet to give up on a case.
A children's hero and one of the few people that the syndicates of Sharn take seriously. He was an orphan and spent a good part of his childhood in a childrens home before he was adopted by the wealthy Demain-family.[/sblock]

"I should've known you'd spot me. You people seem on your guard a lot, eh? Still, you have to admit," he shifts slightly, "it took most of you a while to spot me. Only Hashkavak seemed to spot me after only a few days," he says with wounded pride.

A small bell tinkles as a dwarf walks out of the backroom to stand behind the counter (approx. 20ft. away). "So..." he pauses as he assesses the situation, "what kind of odd gathering is this?" he grins.

Victor waves him off, "Don't worry, Shiltan. I'm just chatting," the dwarf looks scared a moment and Victor adds, "with friends" clearly meant to calm the frightened dwarf.

"A shame I got caught, really. I was supposed to keep tabs on you people for my dear brother - you know him, I believe?
"Now, shall we leave before the dear Shiltan has a nervous breakdown?"
he points over his shoulder, at the still frightened Shiltan.
 



"Absolutely, friend let us find a nice cafe where we can talk more privately"

As he passes by Finn he quietly says "Frundor was out back could you quietly get him?"
 

"My brother?" he asks, "well, it depends on your definition, I guess. Technically, we're not related I just think of him that way, is all. His parents adopted me in my early-teens," he trailed off.

"Hmmm... as for where we're heading, might we not as well keep going to Overlook? Don't want to let a lil' bastard like Rurin roam around there too long, eh?"

Hashkavak, you're confident that he isn't faking his good nature - though whether it was your spell or his natural behaviour is, of course impossible to tell at present.

Olot, you see the three burst in the door, Hashkavak saying something and everything stops for a moment; no one dares move. Then the stranger says something and everyone seems willing to leave. Puzzling, indeed.

OOC: What's the duration of Charm Person, BTW?
 

Olot stares at the group. He is torn between going inside to see if they are alright, and staying outside. He finally decides that it's better for him to stay away from the main group now, that way if something happened to them, he could potentially be the "knight in shining armor."
 

"Of course Viktor, that is a perfect idea. Let us all head to Overlook."

Again, to Finn (quietly): "Let's try to keep Frundor a secret for now, just in case."

[sblock=OOC]Charm lasts for 3 hours at 3rd level[/sblock]
