[QUOTE="Brother Dave, post: 6410910, member: 80003"] Laucian perches lightly on the seat of the wagon next to the driver, his back straight and his blue eyes staring absently at the road ahead and his golden blond hair shining as they move into another patch of sunlight. The fine links of his chain mail gleam against his fine gold and red clothing. An elegant rapier rests in a scabbard at his waist, canted up and to the side so it can be easily drawn without interfering with his seat, and a polished shield engraved with a stylized lily wreathed with oak leaves is propped at his feet. The dark polished wood and steel of a crossbow juts up at an angle over his left shoulder. A scowl mars his features as the coarse dwarf swears again, but he resists the urge to turn and admonish him. He has suffered in silence for the most part since beginning this journey, and sees no reason to break his silence and speak to these...ruffians...now. To be fair, some of them might prove useful in the event of an altercation, but still.... [COLOR="#B22222"][I]I cannot believe I agreed to this, escorting mining supplies like a lowly caravan guard.
