J. Alexander's Four Lands Part 2, redux

[Maidhc O Casain]

OOC:

I was thinking of actually calling it Angelo's Antics. Rather than making you dance or laugh, it could make you crack jokes/wisecracks (possible in sing-song?)

 

[Scotley]

Angelo

OOC: Sung to the tune of Jimmy crack corn (Blue tail fly)

When I was young I used to wait
On Tetsu and hand him his plate
Pass him the bottle when he got dry
And brush away dragons that fly

Chorus
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
My Dungeon Master's gone away
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

When he would ride in the afternoon
I'd follow him with my hickory broom
The pony being rather shy
When bitten by the dragons that fly

Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
My Dungeon Master's gone away

One day he rode around the lair
Dragon's fangs so numerous they did bare
One chanced to bite him on the thigh
The devil take the dragons that fly

Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
My Dungeon Master's gone away

Well the pony jumped, he start, he pitch
He threw my Tetsu in the ditch
He died and the jury wondered why
The verdict was the dragons that fly

Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
Angelo crack wise, and I don't care
My Dungeon Master's gone away

Now he lies beneath the 'simmon tree
His epitaph is there to see
"Beneath this stone I'm forced to lie
The victim of the dragons that fly"

The Commission

The party sets down and helps itself to the stew which is rich with onion poataoes and carrots and very filling. The room begins to fill up with locals and the other patorns who are also coming down to eat or grab a mug before going home.


OCC:Someone is spending way to much time with FLYNN singing in the bathtup

 

[Scotley]

Angelo

OOC: Gather Information (1d20+7=21)

Once be gets warm and full, Angelo will chat with some of the locals and in proper bardic fasion share a little of what went on in the city in exchange for local gossip and happenings.

 

[J. Alexander]

The Comission

Sitting around the common room and eating Angelo and Tetsu overhear the following conversations topics being discussed:
A group of teamseters is discussing the ale and the road conditions to the North
A group of local workmen are talking about the increased passage of men at arms thru the small village.
A group of local workmen are talking about the weather.

 

[Scotley]

Angelo

Angelo strives to hear the important stuff...about the ale, and the road conditions ahead.

 

[J. Alexander]

The Commission

The ale is above average by local standards and the roads are exceptionally muddy as you go farther north even though they are mostly hardpacked in construction. Some concern is voiced over the bulk purchase of food stuffs etc as it appears several communites became greedy and sold more than they should have.

 

[Scotley]

Angelo

Angelo partakes of the fine ale and tries to follow the discussion, "Are you saying some could go hungry this winter because they've oversold their reserves?"

 

[J. Alexander]

The Commission

"That may indeed happen" one of the men says.

 

[Scotley]

Angelo

Speaking to his companions, Anglelo says, "Too bad we didn't bring a wagonload of turnips with us on our way north. They might be worth their weight in gold by midwinter."
