"Bremen!" comes the chorus from the men sitting there. "Bremen! Bremen! Bremen!" The chant rises in volume and speed until speach is impossible and then, silence." ... dy savages should be run out .. of ....town." The voice of the craftsman carries across the room as clear as a bell.The Ubersaxe flicks his head in the direction of the three before returning his attention to you."Of course you have heard of us my friend. Only the newborn and the dead don't know of us. Although many of the latter did, at least briefly. We are the monsters mothers use to frighten their children into obedience. ..." His voice is low and quiet and commanding, and a faint smile plays on his lips.As the ubersaxe talks, four of the Bremen rise and move over to the third table. One of the craftsmen makes to get up but a firm hand guides him back down."We are the winnowers of the chaff," continues the Ubersaxe. "We are Deaths Handmaidens. We are the Bremen."The Ubersaxe speaks calmly and without heat, but his voice seems to fill the room. Words are being exchanged at the other table, but too quiet for you to make them out from where you sit. Mugs are taken from the craftmen's hands and they are lifted to their feet.re whats happening at the other table: sense motive 5: [spoiler]the bremen are going to beat up the craftsmen[/spoiler]sense motive 10: [spoiler]ignore the above + they are going to throw the craftsmen out of the tavern.[/spoiler]sense motive 15: [spoiler]as above + the Bremen move calmly, like people doing their shopping at the market.[/spoiler]sense motive 20: [spoiler]as above + the bremen are enjoying themselves. There seems to be little heat in their actions, like this is a game they play.[/spoiler]spot 10: [spoiler]the halfling remains sitting on the Bremen's table.[/spoiler]spot 15: [spoiler]The Bremen carry no weapons other than knives.[/spoiler]"Its a pleasure to meet you Oscar De Reign."ooc; TH, I loved your post. Particularly Cromwell's hesitation and uncertainty with 'Ubersaxe'. But I couldn't resist. Feel free to edit your post to reflect the Ubersaxe's responce to Oscar's comment etc.</blockquote>
