[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.
