[LPF] Toad in the Hole

[Caim]

Mortar removes the bolt from his crossbow and releases the trigger. "An ale or 2 or 4 would do a great deal after this day. Thank you madam." He says as he gets down from the cart and makes his way to the door. "Ah rabbit stew." He sniffs the air wafting pass him from the door to the inn.

"How is ya new little friend doin Maui?" He calls to the druid.

[sblock=OOC]I'll get a mini stat block up soon.[/sblock]

 

[Systole]

"Huh? Oh, uh ... a good place to drop the toad? I dunno, frogs were more my bag, and aren't you some kind of nature guy, anyway? Toads ... if I had to guess, I think you're going to want to find a place that's a little damp, but not a full-on swamp. Maybe with some toadstools or something?"

The toad has calmed down considerably. It seems wary, but it's not actively trying to squirm away now.

GM: Sorry, jbear. Totally missed your question.

..... Alvise Biaggio .....

 

[jbear]

Maui looks at Alvise incredulous.

"I know where te toads like to live! I asked you if you know of a place nearby! I think te Brown Water has turned your head into mud! Gah! Forget me. Maui will go and ask a tree..."

Maui doesn't actually say the word mud, though the noun he chooses is somewhat similar.

He falls in beside Mortar as he enters the inn. "I think he is calm. Unhappy. But calm. I think if people were licking me and keeping me in cages I would be unhappy and not so calm, so Tane has blessed us at least a little."

Maui sits down to eat. When the food is served he stuffs it down with very little ceremony throwing meat bits down onto the ground for Taniwha. Mouth still full and fingers dripping gravy he tries to say:

"HI'm howing hu find pace for hoad..."

He heads back out the door and begins searching the area for a good spot for the traumatised toad.

"Well Marcus, there is bread and stew aplenty. The wine is good too." As a gracious guest, he keeps himself to 2 glasses of wine.

 

[Artur Hawkwing]

Marcus is settled in when Maui arrives. Despite his best efforts, the Ranger can't help but watch the show of Maui attacking the stew bare handed. As the druid departs, mouth still half full, Marcus raises his glass, still half full of wine, in acknowledgement before setting it back to the table.

Free entertainment too, great floor show. I wonder what we'll see for an encore.

He chuckles, the wine seeming to have calmed his nerves from earlier. He sips at it and leans back a little, into a more relaxed posture.

 

[DalkonCledwin]

"Entertainment hmmm?" Fae'shiel says hearing Marcus' words... she raises one of her hands towards the room's ceiling, says a few words in an archaic dialect, motioning that hand in a few strange patterns and then outstretches her fingers straightforward towards the ceiling.

Suddenly a burst of bright coruscating light of a multitude of colors erupts from the tips of her fingers jetting towards the ceiling.

[sblock=OOC]Color Spray... not just for combat purposes. Oh and DM, please don't get all technical on me about not being able to use that without a target or something. We are RP'ing here aren't we and this has no practical use as near as I can see other than entertainment value.[/sblock]

 

[Systole]

[sblock=Maui]The half-elf was right about one thing: Toadstools are a good indicator of a good habitat for toads. The area around the inn doesn't have any, and it seems a little sandy for toads. Something tells you the toad hasn't reached its destination yet.[/sblock]

 

[Artur Hawkwing]

[sblock=ooc]*facepalm* Rangers get Wild Empathy, too. Maybe Marcus can help Maui calm Toadachrome.[/sblock]
Marcus looks up at Fae'shiel's gesturing, he sorta seems to follow some of it, but gets lost. When the spray of colors issues forth, making it's dazzling patterns in the air he smiles.

Lady Atchka used to do that sometimes when she got bored. She told me once she thought it would be great if I learned to do it, too, so our colors could dance together.

 

[Scott DeWar]

Vincenzo rests his feet on an empty chair, enjoying the arcane display.

 

[DalkonCledwin]

"Lady Atchka?" Fae'shiel says with an inquisitive and slightly hurt look on her face after her display of colors ended.
