[FR][PBP] Against the Storm Game Thread

[dead_radish]

OOC: You know, that grinning smiley (I usually hate those little things) really works for ubaar. is the one, I'd bet. I just picture this goofy grinning savage with giant shiny teeth.

"I assure you, Ubaar, I am not weak - and the Falcon of War is a powerful ally," Akharos replies.

"But I do respect respect your strength, and your faith in the Thunderbeast."

"I assure you, Ubaar, I am not weak - and the Falcon of War is a powerful ally," Akharos replies.

"But I do respect respect your strength, and your faith in the Thunderbeast."

"Oh, you Strong, Akh.

You blood-brother!
You probably know what it's like to be feared and hated because of your orc blood.

That's what I've been trying to fight - us being treated like third-class people, regardless of what we do.

Ubaar can't wait to show people what we can do to those forces of Storm when we take 'em out."

Ubaar punches his hand into his fist with a loud smack, then smiles a big toothy grin thinking about it.

OOC: dead_radish - you're exactly right - I think you got him down pretty well. He smiles pretty close to the idea of the smiley.

Ubaar punches his hand into his fist with a loud smack, then smiles a big toothy grin thinking about it.

Akharos nods, and extends his hand to Ubaar.

"Agreed. Even being a servant of the gods, Mulhorand is not a place friendly to those who are different... and if you want different, try having orc and dragon blood," Akharos smiled wryly.

Calain wakes up from his massive wounds and sits weakly against the mast, looking angrily at, well, everyone, his hand clutched to a still-oozing arrow wound. He mutters something to himself, and sighs.

 

[Elric]

<Alex goes over to Calain>

"It's good that you're going to be fine. Do you want to devise a plan for avoiding this situation the next time that we're attacked? Your thoughts would be appreciated."

 

[DM_Matt]

Rufus asks "So what are you all to be doing in Luskan for Irusyl? Perhaps I could be of some assistance, or at least give you a few pointers. I know the area pretty well, ya know, and whatever she's got you doing....well, I have a feeling I've done something like it before...Anyone for some hardy dwarven ale? Mine comes all the way from best brewers in the Rift!"

 

[Paragon Badger]

Alcar will grin at Rufus's offer. "Sure, never turn down a drink! Plus I'm might like to gain a little recon about Luskan. I'd like to be better prepared when our next battle come around."

Alcar will wait to see if any of the others are accepting the offer before divulging vital information to a stranger

 

[reapersaurus]

Ubaar visibly twitches at the offer of stout, dwarven ale.

"If, ummmm, you got some extra... Ubaar like a taste."

After Ubaar gets past the pleasant surprise of Great Drink, he'll compose himself and in an aside to the others, "Has anyone checked Rufus out? I mean, are we sure he playing on side of Angels?

OOC: detect evil or something

How we know he not one of Storm's agents, trying to get knowledge of our task?"

He sees Calain's foul mood, and says "Calain - you look like you could use a drink - you OK there, magic-man?"

 

[dead_radish]

Elone shakes her head at Rufus. "I thank you, but no."

She considers Ubaar. "Well, we have thrown our trust in Irusyl, and she has vouched for Rufus. If we trust her, we must trust him. Tomorrow I can ask Solonor to judge him, but for now.... We can reveal where we go, if not what we do, perhaps."

She then sits back to allow someone else to address Rufus.
