Hewligan's Rise of the Runelords: The Skinsaw Murders

[Rhun]

While the others are off doing their thing, would it be possible for Danth to sell his breastplate and purchase a suit of masterwork banded armor? I'm asssuming he could find such a thing in Magnimar, but wanted to check before adding it to his character sheet.

Magnimar is a major city, so you can definitely find masterwork armour, but if you want to get it fitted properly within a 48 hour period then you are going to have to pay an extra 20gp to pay for a few extra skilled helpers for the armour-smith to do the rush job.

Follow standard PHB rules for selling and buying prices, please.

Joivk strained to hear the conversation, but could not make it out over the churring water of the river.

He was about to ask Jokad what he wanted to do, then realized how futile asking a Shoanti would be, since he didn;t want to go charging in.

"Well Jokad, seems one of the seven brothers has shown up. I definitely think we need to get inside. And I would feel a lot better if we had Kael and Danth. Show we wait until this new guy leaves or try to go get Kael and Danth now?"

 

[hewligan]

The return to the city is a short trek, made more exciting by the nerves that come with knowing that 'something' is going to go down, and very possibly this very night.

OOC: I am happy for you all to return this evening, or wait until next day - can someone just make a post to let me know how to progress. The game has been very slow the past week, and I need it to pick up a bit.

OC: I say we return that night.

OOC: Sorry been out of town off and on for the last couple weeks. Another trip coming 6/13 - 6/20. I'll do me best to catch up.


IC: A wide smile splits the Shoanti's face at the appearance of the carriage and the armored man. "Now we're getting somewhere!", he thinks to himself.

Despite his natural urge to confront the man directly he understood the wisdom of his more streetwise friend. Men like this had money. Unless they uncovered overwhelming proof, it would be unlikely the city watch would look kindly on their skulking about.

Jokad strained to hear the brief conversation at the door but it was no use with the constant clatter in the yard.

"Getting Danth and Kael probably makes sense. Should one of us stay and watch to make sure they don't leave? Either way we need to get back here tonight."


OOC: I would suggest fetching the others and hurrying right back. Who knows how long they will be here or if this opportunity will present itself again.

Danth pays the extra gold to have his new armor ready by the time Jovik and Jokad return from their scouting. The banded mail was a bit heavier than he was used to, but nothing he couldn't handle. And if he and his companions kept running into the types of trouble they were prone to get into over the past months, the extra protection would be well worth the cost. The young cleric only wished they had the coin for even better protection.

The party gather together at the orphanage, grab a quick meal, and then immediately set out into the fading light. The city is alive with workers returning home from a long day of labour. Despite the often exhausting work they undertake, there is a lot of friendly banter between the people who throng the streets. The heroes, rather conspicious in their armour and arms, draw a few funny comments, such as "off to the night-clubs lads?" and "what castle are you storming tonight?", and Jokad's favourite (perhaps because it was leveled by a heavily tattooed butcher at Kael and not himself) "Hey pretty redhead, how much for a shot, but without the rest of your fetish crew, and definitely without the dog?" That one was followed by a lot of laughter from the other butchers sitting out front of their closed-up shop.

So much for a quiet and discrete exit from town.

The route back to the mill is quick and easy going. The group are met along the trail by a slow but steady stream of workers coming the other way. Everyone has at least one polite word to say, even if it is just a simple "evening" and a tip of the hat.

By the time you finally arrive, the sun is very low in the sky.

OOC: You are there. Let me know how you want to proceed.

 

[Rhun]

Danth can only grin at the lewd comments toward Kael. "I suppose we should have worn those monk's robes." The cleric pleasantly returns the greetings of those one the road, usually with a small blessing. "Sarenae's light upon you," or similar.

As they arrive in the underbrush outside of the mill to check out the scene, the cleric prepares himself for the coming investigation.


I'll post up Danth's prepped spells shortly.

Jokad shakes his head at Danth, "I don't know how in the eight hells you are going to be sneaking around in that but I guess you weren't too good at it before." He laughs heartily thinking it some grand joke.

"I'm really not too sure what our next move should be. I may be a barbarian but I'm not so foolish to think law on the frontier and law in this big city are one and the same. Our usual tactics of breaking in and ransacking the place until we find what we need may not work here."
