My apologies been very busy, 18 hours days snatching sleep, etc. Thought I was going to be able to manage 1 post a day, but that turned out to be optimistic. Back to a much more palatable schedule now though and more or less rested.
The creature stalks forward with is odd jerky gait, the hood that conceals its face - though not quite well enough - turning from side to side. Finally satisfied it moves forward and snatches the parchment...
OOC:
You ought to have a surprise round here, but it needs to be triggered by the watchers, so please roll init and if it is higher than both Fury and Zelena you are effectively delayed until after one of them goes. Make sense? E.g if The Duke rolls a 21 and Zelena and Fury get a 14 and 17 respectively The Duke takes a 16.
Its fine if you all want to be on the same side as the demon. No warning actions will not count as surprise round actions, unless they are an attack or something like that.
