[IC Thread] Delving the Mists

Quilan follows quickly, happy to be on the move again and eager for the chance to get some food in his stomache... his stomach churning with anticipation while they walk.

"Oh man... I've been hungry for hours. I'm going to eat a horse... or maybe two."

You arrive at Andrew's after walking for a half hour or so. The building looks a little rundown with some loosely patched holes in it's roof, but it is large enough to accomodate quite a few people.

Inside there are only a few tables full of patrons as it looks to be a slow night. A dice game is going at one table and the rest of the crowd is listening to a gray haired man play a lute on a table facing everyone.

The barkeep looks rather tired and irritable like he wants to close soon, but he says meals of stew and some bread are still being served...along with ale if you want any.

[OOC: Common meals are available here along with ale. Please remove the costs of these from your character sheet if you want to buy anything]
 

Alyson - Anatomist

Telsar and Cerebus

Watching the man scream in pain and fall to the ground, Alyson winks at the woman left standing there. "Are you ok? Don't worry, the last one will be dealt with quickly." Turning to the man standing, and seeing him wince in pain at Natalie's attack, she thinks, This girl can take care of herself easily. Kalri on the other hand is not so adept at fighting. Time to get this over with quickly.

Taking a few steps to 10,49 she takes an attack at the man, aiming for another vital spot. AttBon+8, 1d4+3. "Kalri, take care of the woman, we'll handle this guy. How does it feel to lose to a woman? This'll make you think twice about who to attack at night!"

OOC - Trying to get Kalri out of this, so she can move around the building to 13,52 or somewhere there to look after the woman.

Quilan orders two bowls of stew and bread, gets a mug of ale and then heads to a table where he hunkers down while he eats his meal. He looks around the room to try to identify and gauge the people there as best as he can.

Cerebus and Fangor:

Responding to Alyson's words, "I don't think he's capable of thinking twice, or he would have realized who was a threat to his well being." If he doesn't drop from Alyson's attack, Natalie will again hit him with her morningstar, although probably unable to get the flank unless Kalri doesn't listen and keeps fighting.

If he does drop, make one very quick look at the victim, to see what shape she's in, then move down the alley a bit, trying to spot the guy who ran (who's probably long gone by now), giving chase if she sees him.
 

Telsar & Fangor

-- Round 3 --

Alyson steps over to assist Kalri and Natalie and ends up stabbing the thug right in the abdomen, causing him to double over and collapse. He and his partner look to be in bad shape now, like they might die without medical attention.

Kalri leans on her quarterstaff and breathes out a sigh of relief before picking up her sling. She walks over to the woman and helps her up.
The woman says, "Oh thank you so much for helping me! I believe I've already met you all before...I'm Sulin from the restaurant." She smiles. "I was out purchasing some wine from a uh...less reputable source, and these men must have followed me to take the wine back and my coin purse along with it." She stoops down to pick up a large barrel nested in a harness of ropes and straps that she puts onto her back. "I would very much like to make my way back home now, so if you wouldn't mind giving me an escort home I would be very grateful." She smiles hopefully.

Natalie spends a moment searching down the alleyways for the other man who ran off but he appears to be long gone by now.

OOC:
Alyson move action 13,52 to 10,49 | standard action attack thug #1 | attack result, 20 hits | damage, 6

Salzorin & Gram & Pyrex

Quilan sits down and starts to drink in the crowd.

They are:
Tired bartender and someone cooking in the back (don't catch a glimpse of them at all)
Couple of older drunks at the bar
Gray haired lute player
4 surly looking guys playing dice at a table in the corner
2 tables of about 10 people drinking and talking a bit while watching the lute player

The gamblers don't pay attention to anything but their dice game, the old men at the bar look wasted, and the other tables of people look a bit drunk but seem to be having a good time listening to the music.
 

Cerebus, Salzorin & Gram

Anton orders a mug of ale and looks around for people matching the descriptions of Onar and Goilon. If he doesn't spot them he'll ask the bartender if they've been in recently.
 

Cerebus and Telsar
Alyson will stabalize the men, while Kalri ties them up. "Make sure they are disarmed Natalie. Better safe than sorry."
Once they are stabalized and secured, she turns to Natalie, "So now what? Send for the officials or leave them and escort Sulin here?"

OOC - Heal +14 without the Kit not wanting to waste her efforts much on them.
Once they are stabalized, Alyson will help tie them up nice and secure.
 

Cerebus and Fangor:

Natalie says, "I'd like to do a thorough search on these gentlemen; they might have evidence of other crimes they've committed on their person. And one of us should stay here anyway, until the other can send the guards to pick them up, so I'll stay and search them, Alyson, if you and Kalri don't mind escorting Sulin, then alerting the guards. Just try to hurry... I don't really want to have to stay out here all night." To Sulin she says "I'm glad we could help you ma'am, but I think your customers would prefer to pay a little more for their wine and keep you alive and uninjured. Where did you buy the wine from exactly? If the sellers were in on the attack, I should probably have a word with them."

After everyone leaves, Natalie will take the thugs' weapons first, then double check that they're tied. Then she'll take her time examining the weapons and everything she can find on them [Take 20 on Search checks].
 

Salzorin & Gram & Pyrex

The descriptions you received were very vague so there are several people in the tavern who match them. The bartender however thinks that one of the men at the dice game may be who you are looking for because they are all in here pretty regularly on the evenings, but he doesn't know for sure because he's very tired.

Telsar & Fangor

Alyson easily patches up the wounds of the two men while Kalri ties them up tightly.

Sulin grimaces at the question of where she purchased the wine. "I'm not sure this stock is something they've aquired...legally, but I am able to get a much lower price from them than at the normal markets. Usually I meet them in a run down tenement building late in the evening after I have received a message from them that they have more stock to sell." She gives you directions to the place which might be a bit hard to find in the dark, but you think Anton could lead you there if you really wanted to investigate it this evening. Sulin hefts the heavy cask of wine onto her back and goes to follow Alyson and Kalri.
[OOC: If Fangor has no objections I will assume that they leave at this point to take Sulin back, correct me if I am wrong.]
Natalie spends some time making an inventory of what the men have: [taking 20 on search and taking 10 on appraise]
First thug - Rusted Breastplate, Buckler, Scimitar, 2 potions, 2 Tanglefoot Bags, 12 gp
Second thug - Chainmail, Masterwork Light Flail, 6 Masterwork Throwing Axes; 1 potion, Thunder Stone, 7 gp

[OOC: Could everyone please prefix any posts they make with their name and class in bold? I almost made the mistake of refering to a character by his player name which would have made me feel a bit foolish :p]
