Forgotten Heroes IC

[Lot]

Seifer examines the half-orc out of the corner of his eye, sipping his ale slowly. He says nothing, unhappy with the current situation but not able to think of another course of action.

 

[Komodo]

Kralek waves to the bartender and motions for a drink, then turns to Voadam. "I'm supposed to be meeting a Brother by the name of Kay. He's an old acquaintance of mine, but he has a habit of showing up late. I'm not too worried if she hasn't arrived yet."

edit: ignore this edit, nothing's changed

 

[hafrogman]

Chester nods his greetings to the newcomer.

"Well, feel free to join us while you wait then. Time passed is always better spent with company, I say."

 

[Shayuri]

Lily chuckles. "Rags to riches. Out of curiosity...what are a couple of priests doing meeting in a tavern common room? Up to no good?" her tone is light, joking, and she winks playfully as she raises her mug to her mouth.

 

[Voadam]

"I am called Voadam, the Green Wizard. Tell me, are you just arrived in town? Do you bring any wanderer's tales? News of the border war or of the plague of Mandin bandits? And are you here in response to Brother Markus' request of the greater church or on your own church business?" Voadam drinks some more of his wine.

 

[Komodo]

"Aye, I was sent by Brother Markus," replies Kralek. "Brother Kay and me are here to collect some musty old tome for, ah, historical purposes." He grins. "And, if we get a chance eliminate ah certain nasty cultist."

The half-orc leans back in his chair and takes a deep draught from his mug. "But ye wanted traveler's tales, didn't ye? That I can do you for. Why, just last night, I single-handedly fended off an entire tribe o' goblins who were after some of my father's famous goat cheese," he says patting a pouch hanging off his backpack. "Sneaky little fellows..."

He mutters something and takes another gulp of ale. "Before setting out in this direction, I was wit' a group sent to banish a 10,000 year-old mummy back ta the Forgotten Wastes. Put up quite a fight, that one did, but I was able to finish him off with a solid whack from me trusty sword," he continues, giving the hilt of the greatsword on his back a brief stroke. "Ragged bugger turned into a swarm of beetles soon as I thought he was finished and scurried off inta the cracks. So we set the entire room on fire. Ha!" he laughs loudly. "Thought he could get away, he did, but we showed him. A jar of his ashes is currently en route ta the Wastes as we speak."

 

[Kafkonia]

"Brother Kralek!"

Standing in the doorway to the bar is another priest of Johan. Despite the short haircut and stocky build, however, it is quite obvious that this priest is in fact a woman.

"I'm sorry I'm late," she says, approaching the table. "I was looking over a very fascinating sample I..." She notices the strange looks being given her by the other patrons at the table. "You called me 'he' again, didn't you?" she says, punching Kralek playfully on the shoulder. "I swear, you're worse than my brothers ever were!"

She turns to address the group. "My name is Kay. Brother Kay, as Brother Kralek likes to point out. I tell you, I wouldn't put up with him if it weren't for the cheese."

[SBLOCK=OOC]Kay's character sheet says 'female human.' I hope this gets posted; my previous attempt vanished in the aether.[/SBLOCK]

 

[Komodo]

Kralek wraps a muscular arm around Kay and gives her a swift, tight hug. He chuckles loudly, smiles a toothy grin, and says, "That's what I'm here for. How was yer trip, lass?"

[sblock=OOC]
Ahahahaha...sorry about that, Kafkonia. I blame AT; his first spoiler to me said "he is prone to being late."

[Lot]

Seifer continues to watch these newcomers, slightly jealous of their capacity for assured pleasantries. He turns to Voadam.

"Maybe it would be a good time to explain our situation to these good priests. We should find out quickly if they want to help us."

Seifer returns his attention to the priests.

"I apologize for my rudeness. We...well, we all have a lot on our plates right now and I'm not quite feeling myself as of late. My name is Sir Seifer Dagmar. Anyway, I believe Voadam could explain our current situation better than anyone. Certainly better than me."

The distinctive-looking knight leans back, his hard face looking to Voadam, then back to the priests.

 

[Scotley]

Eglath

"Welcome," adds the large battlehardened Goliath around a buscuit. "I'm Eglath, a simple warrior." His size, muscular form and the massive glowing longaxe behind him suggest that his is a warrior of some ability.
