[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 2347099, member: 16166"] [sblock]Diplomacy check (DC 15/25) +24 - Partial Success Gather Information check (DC 15/25) +5 - Failure [/sblock] It was one thing for the people of The Apartments to live in squallor, squatting in shanty homes and living off whatever the streets threw at them, it was entirely different for these same filthy debased creatures to tolerate the presence of someone whose stench was worse than their own. Taran and Twitchy found the people on the surface evasive, for after only a few words many of them would mutter or grunt something at him before waving him off and staggering into the streets. It was hard, but eventually with a gesture and an indifferent partially coherant grumbling, one of the street people gestured towards a discarded pile of paper nearby. Proudly proclaimed on the top of the paper was: [SIZE=7][CENTER][B]The Cryer[/B][/CENTER][/SIZE] [CENTER][B]Serving the People of Metropolis for Eighteen Years![/B][/CENTER] Below which a dozen different sections of the paper spew information on all of the city's dramas and problems, ranging from wild magical storms over the Castillias Bay to the birth of eight-headed kittens to a family of rats in Dugander Town.
