[LPF] Rescue at Boar's Ridge

[Satin Knights]

The goblin spits in Menik's face.

[sblock=ooc]Sorry, but threatening him that you are going to leave him to die breaks the spell, especially since he is already tied up and helpless.

If your first act was to untie him, or even ask nicely "Where is your boss?" while giving him a little oo-mox, you would have gotten somewhere.

ooc: Maybe Menik should pick up some ranks in diplomacy

Menik wipes his face off and shrugs. "Guess he's not willing to betray his boss."

 

[Deuce Traveler]

Lem mutters to Menik, "Well, at least you were honest."

 

[hemera]

Reianne suppresses a laugh. "That went well. I'm guessing you went with more stick than carrot then? How about you translate for me a minute?" Never mind honesty she thinks to herself, as she prepares herself to switch to actor mode.

Sheathing her sword, and setting down the sunrod for a moment she pulls out her whip. Swinging it idly by her side as she approaches the goblin she says "So we can make this as fun as you want it to be." She snaps the off to her side. "You tell us more about what the necromancer guards and defenses are like, or I start having a little fun with this whip here. Care to test me?" She says flashing her hopefully best intimidating look.

[sblock=ooc]
heh, I am sooooo scary.

[kinem]

Menik backs off a bit (trying to get out of spittle range) and says in goblin

"She is not as merciful as I am. You had best tell us about the necromancer and his guards, or she will have much cruel fun at your expense."

Ru Brike, human ninja

Ru watches silently, eyebrow raising as Reianne's magical charm is dispelled, and Reianne herself proves to be less frightening than she intended. He takes a deep breath, then sighs.

"Well-oiled we are not," he says with a cheeky grin.

"I think we may have to give up the ghost on this one, folks," he offers. "We're past convincing him we're his buddies, and I expect he's seen enough to decide his 'take over the world with magic' boss is the better bet.

"We do still have the hungry hungry whatsis downstairs, though. Gobbo may not be willing to turn over his boss to us, but we might get him to at least tell us what that thing is if he hears it calling for him to get in his belly?"

[sblock=ooc]I'm assuming SK won't allow Aid Another after the fact on Reianne's intimidate check. With the +5 to the DC for retries, we're probably not likely to do much up here, but we might be able to get some circumstance modifiers if we plant him near the hungry monster door. If we can stack Aid rolls for Reianne at that point, we might be able to overcome it, though.

At least, that's my theory, if we want to keep trying to explore this avenue.[/sblock]

Galandra tries to hide a chuckle and turns to the other side. She had expected the interrogation to go run smoothly.

"You need to use fear. What do they fear?" she suggests Menik but then her eyes lit up "Wait... I have an idea"

She whispers to Menik so the goblin can't hear. "These folk, they don't like words, don't they? They think they are evil and magical stuff. Well... Take some blood from him, a drop of your blood too... and write something in his forehead. Do some simple magic and tell him his soul is now yours and you will release it when the necromancer is dead. What do you say?"

"And yes, the hungry one might want a goblin sized snack for that matter" she moves away.

 

[Satin Knights]

While the group is chattering in words he doesn't understand, the goblin's eyes are fixed on the pretty girl. When she pulls out the whip, he smiles. After struggling a bit in his ropes, he rolls over and wags his bum in the air.

[sblock=ooc]It's so hard to keep this PG. For those that want to follow me into the gutter, this sets the mood. *NSFW* Freaker's Ball.[/sblock]

 

[Qik]

Throughout the conversation, Mesem continues to chant to himself in case his intervention is needed. (repeatedly cast Guidance)

Already frustrated at the course the so-called interrogation has ran, the goblin's display of a complete lack of fear at the group sets him over the edge. Sheathing his sword, he grabs the creature by the scruff of its neck and lifts it up, roughly. "I concur with Ru. Let us go."

(As long as nobody stops him...)

Mesem drags the goblin down the stairs and to the door shielding the hungry voice. Slamming the goblin next to it, he points, hoping the message is clear.

(2!? Ugh...)

[Satin Knights]

Since he knows it took four goblins to move the rocks into the way to block the door, he giggles and laughs at Mesem. Then he turns his head and blows kisses towards Reianne.
