Heroes, Inc. : Rasheman

[frostrune]

Alethia smiles sadly back at Kayla and turns back to the warrior. Bending down, she touches him and with a quick prayer, they both vanish only reappear on board the ship. When she does so, Naverone calls for Devan, knowing that they can't exactly leave the warrior where he is at the moment

"Devan, we captured this tiger clan warrior. We need some answers out of him, but I need to pray for the spells to do so. We need him secured in the meantime." she said, giving the helmite cleric a quick recap on what happened.

While Alethia tells Devan what's going on, Naverone also tells Timrin, though in a bit greater detail. He's under no illusions on the tiger clan warrior's eventual fate, but hope's to make it as quick and as clean as possible.

"I can take care of this one," Devan says confidently, "I will get the answers you need."

"That was a close shave with Timrin and his group. They will be hunted. Even the Thayans may have reservations about directly attacking the Temple of Mystra but they will find a way to get at them sooner or later. You need to link up with them soon. If your tasks send you on divergent paths, at least get them their gear. That boy's talents may be considerable but it ain't terribly knightly to running about in a potato sack."

OOC: Devan has had a STATUS spell active on all of you. He knew the damage Timrin took and probably felt the finger of death the Thayan cast as well. Any spells in particular you want cast on this guy? Devan is higher level cleric than Alethia. Being out of combat, he can more easily modify his spell repetoir for these types of things.

Alethia smirked at Devan's potato sack comment. "Don't worry, I was planning on teleporting back as soon as I got that one secured. I suspect you know the sort of questions to ask as well as I, if not more so," she said wryly.

ooc:
Command or dominate would probably be best, especially if you want to get real answers, thumbscrews are so passe and inaccurate in any case.

Devan will see to the warrior being properly secured and restrained and at least bandage any remaining open wounds (not healing spells, just heal check).

While he is tending to the wounds he introduces himself to the young warrior. "I am Devan Hardcastle, itinerant priest of Helm. You have been taken prisoner because you ally with the Thayans against the true Rashemi government."

"Why you have chosen this path I do not know. But the Gods have granted all men free will. The path of your life can be changed. That can start now... if you are willing."

"I am going to be asking some questions regarding your clan and your Thayans allies. If you cooperate and answer these truthfully and willingly your fate may be very different than if you should choose to continue to confound me. I am by no means offering you your freedom. That will be decided by others. I am offering you an opportunity to divert from your currrent self-destructive path and take a small step back toward the path of good."

"I will leave you to your thoughts on this matter. Think well young warrior. Right now you are angry. You feel you must be 'tough'. But know this, admitting you are wrong and facing those consequences is the truest test of your mettle."

Devan will then retreat to his quarters to pray for a few select spells : Zone of Truth, Know Opponent, Discern Lies (filling his empty 2nd, 3rd, & 4th spell slots respectively)

About an hour or so later he will return to speak with the warrior.

"I hope you have considered your choices carefully. I would have your answer now. Will you willingly provide me the information I seek to the best of your ability?"

 

[kirinke]

Alethia rests briefly and cleans herself up. She also lets Timrin and the others know that she is coming via teleport aiming for Marco's warehouse and from there will make her way to the temple of Mystra.

ooc:
Depending on what we decided, she'll either be disguised as a merchant or a simple traveling cleric of Selune with her more exotic looks completely disguised.

 

[DM_Matt]

If Timrin is embarassed he doesn't show it. He says, "Thanks Maggie, I suppose we don't have to be fithy anymore either if you've a spell that can take of that as well?"

He then quietly stands by as the witch slowly awakens and responds to Shando.



"I am Sir Timrin Goldmantle and this is Maggie Kiran <gesturing to the mage>. We are pleased to make your acquaintance," he bows humbly.

"When you are feeling better we would like to learn more about you. We have risked much in rescuing you. I trust we have thrown our guantlet unto the right side of this conflict?"

Maggie pulls out a small piece of soap and it bursts in a flash of light. Everyone is clean now.

The witch, getting a bit less confused and more confident she isn't dead, says "Oh, yes. Of course. I am Sara Sammari of the Wychlaren. The Tiger Clan invited the Thayan army in in the middle of the night. No one had time to escape. They promised.....they said they'd be....easy on those who did not resist. But a few days later, as I was coming home from the marketplace when Tiger Clan warriors ambushed me in my flat. Next thing I remember, I'm being burned at the stake."

"Clearly, the spirits of the land have not saved me as I had been promised. Perhaps it your power I should trust in now. What do you want?"

They are alterted as such, and Maggie arranges for a priest to meet them near Marco's Warehouse and lead them to the secret enterence to the temple. Everyone is together now.

 

[kirinke]

Alethia grins at Timrin. "Heard you had an exciting time of it," she said as she gave back the items that had been stowed in her bag of holding.

 

[Hawkeye]

"We managed to make it a block or two before having to rescue someone. At least we made it past the gate."

"Clearly, the spirits of the land have not saved me as I had been promised. Perhaps it your power I should trust in now. What do you want?"

"Interesting...", Devan muses taking time to think. "We are powerful, but unlike the Thayans, we would not be your masters."

"What is your name warrrior?", Devan asks.
