[IC] Stealthy Missions: Prologue

[Inez Hull]

After a few drinks Orland also retires, ready to begin some scrounging, gossiping and muckraking the next day.

 

[Xael]

Stolig floats through a door behind the stairs to downstairs. The downstairs has series of doors with small rooms behind them, each one seeminly identical, containing a bed, shelves, and a closet. The place has multiple lanterns as a source of light, each one equipped with a hood to place over it. Stolig whisks to the general direction of the doors, mumbling something incomprehensible, and floats back upstairs.

*Xael's time-warp (TM)*

You awoke the next day (more likely the same day, but...) from whatever room you happened to choose.

 

[Inez Hull]

Orland will try and wrangle a good breakfast out his employers and then start gearing up ready to leave. He approaches Thorik and asks, "Don' suppose you'll be able to magick us to the city in question? I'm keen ta get snoopin' an' on the job as soon as possible."

 

[Dalamar]

James joins Orland just as he is speaking with Thorik.
"Yes, we should start our job as soon as possible."

 

[Xael]

You find Thorik, Taeghen and Stolig from the kitchen. Stolig is is finishing breakfast while you speak with Thorik. "I'm not leaving at the moment, but Taeghen can take you there.", he says while digging a ring from his pocket and tossing it to Taeghen (who catches it). "Just tell him when you're ready to go."

 

[Inez Hull]

"Let's get goin' then Taeghen, there's fun waitin' ta be had."

 

[Dalamar]

"Yes, let's get going, there are boundless adventures to be had."

 

[Xael]

James & Orland

Taeghen puts the ring to his finger, then his form shifts to that of an old human man in dirty clothing. "There we go again, not a moment of peace here.", he whines (clearly non-seriously). "Youngsters these days...", he continues and changes back to "normal", but then touches you and mutters something. Then your eyesight goes all blurry again.

After a second or two, your vision clears again. You are standing in a smallish and non-decorated room with stone walls and miscellaneous stuff around. There are also couple of other people there besides of you. Taeghen speaks to nobody in particular: "Ah, yes. Now we're all gathered here. You all will be working as a team at least for this mission, so try to get along, will you.

Others

You've been told to wait here (I'll tell later what is "here") for other members of your team. Suddenly, when you are already probably deeply bored, three people appear from nowhere to the middle of the room. A reddish-skinned, red-clad, red-eyed, man with a pointy tail (whom you already know, see ooc thingy) speaks. "Ah, yes. Now we're all gathered here. You all will be working as a team at least for this mission, so try to get along, will you."



OOC: Ok, all the "new recruits" know all the basics of the thing, job and everything else (read the thread, it's not that long and you can skip most of it). You have been contacted by Taeghen (the reddish snob-guy) before so you know him.

Everybody could now post something and give a description of their characters.

 

[Dalamar]

"And who might these be?"
James asks, raising an eyebrow.

James is a human male wearing clothes fitting for a noble.

 

[Someone]

A young man, short and slim armed only with a dagger sits on a chair. He imposes little physically but has an air of quietness, someething perhaps weird, under his black hair. Dressed in fine dark clothes, a pair of blue eyes shine in his pale face, as do so a permanent smile of self confidence, contempt, or maybe that he´s not in his right mind.

"Hello" whispers "My name´s Rowenstin. I´ll provide magical support for this job"
