Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

[Maidhc O Casain]

Rook

(To Brindo, with a slightly sardonic courtly bow)

"Sorry I was abrupt earlier - I lost track of an opponent and just realized I still had one to finish off just as you were introducing yourself! I am Rook, and my friends and crewmates over here are Radoon and Marienna. Also along with us, at least temporarily, are Elizabeth and Sir Rodney."

As he talks, Rook will begin walking toward the door in such a way as to 'guide' Brindo along with him.

I need to get us through that door before either Michael or Radoon decides to bring their conflict to blows.

The aftermath.

Brindo follows along apparently eager to meet Rook's companions. Rook gets the distinct impression the fellow is of high birth.

Radoon - Mariner/Fighter/Master Thrower

Once Rook is back in the doorway, I will baracade it to keep anything else from coming up behind and we will hopefully continue toward the back.

BackStage

Radoon easily blocks the door.

OOC: What now?

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Rook

Rook will introduce his new friend to the crew.

Introductions

"Captain Brindo Blackwater, of the Wave Shadow. A pleasure to meet you all." He bows to the men and kisses the hands of the ladies. Brindo is a handsome man in his early thirties with dark hair that falls to his shoulders in oiled ringlets. He has an equally dark and well oiled gotte and mustache. His skin is tanned and he is lithe and fit. Of average height and weight his personality seems to make him larger. He wore some sort of costume that was largely discarded in the battle leaving him in short trousers of black with gold piping and a sleaveless white undershirt. His large dagger/shortsword is tucked into his belt. He received a minor wound in the battle which Marienna briefly examines and finds unworthy of treatment at this time. "That was a rousing fight I must say. What sort of misbogotten horror were we fighting? I've never seen the like."

Radoon - Mariner/Fighter/Master Thrower

"That was a nice bit of fighting back there, we'd love your help a bit with figuring what is going on around here if you are looking for a bit of an adventure. We intend on helping Elizabeth here find her friends, if they are still around and explore a bit of what might be down here at the same time. What'd ya say?"

 

[Scotley]

BackStage

He looks at Elizabeth coyly and says, "How could I refuse such a fair damsil in distress." Marienna rolls her eyes and makes a gagging face at Radoon from off to the side where neither Brindo nor Elizabeth can see her.

Radoon

not to laugh out loud (1d20=5)

Upon seeing M., Radoon has a difficult time not letting out big bellied laugh. He does manage to limit it to a chuckle.

"It seems we have an extra blade. Let's see what we have back here that caused all the ruckus!"

 

[Scotley]

The aftermath

Hearing no ojection from the others, Radoon leads the little band through the tunnels and briefly out into the ampetheather then into another tunnel into the the back areas behind the private room. They soon discover that their are long curving passages behind each tier of private rooms. They soon find kitchens and storage rooms. Almost all of the staff seem to abandoned the place. From the looks of things you'd guess a few helped themselves to valuable items like silver, crystal, expensive foodstuffs and fine spirits. The wine cellars look particularly bare. A couple of fellows in servingmen's outfits have passed out from too much expensive liquor.

OOC: Will you go down deeper into the cellars or up into the rooms behind the original private room you were given earlier?
