New Tavern Thread: The Hanged Man

[DMDanW]

Dextyr listens to the couple as they tell their story and a look of sadness washes over his face. Before he can respond Mikara looks up from her drink. "Sounds like a job for the diplomatic, fatherly type. City thing, houses, parents, eeeeaaahhhh..." She makes some gaging actions and then looks back up at Dextyr. "It's perfect for you," and then mumbles, "but not for me."

"Well I do not know if I am perfect for the job, but I do know the greif that comes with loosing close family members" Dextyr replies. He stands and makes his way over to the waiting couple. "Dextyr M'rgan at your service, and I offer my hand in helping you get your daughter back."

He looks over at Tonk and smiles. "It looks as if your coconut drink will have to wait till after we help these people punch-brother. I promise I will buy you one then, and if we can find enough coin on our way, perhaps I can arrange to even import some of those special spirits you mentioned."

"Hey! Soon-to-be-papa and soon-to-be-mama, this is my Punch Brother, Dextyr! Here is group hug!" Tonk's mighty arms again crush the poor couple, this time embracing Dextyr as well. "I think that maybe at wedding, Dextyr be best man, yes? I no ask him yet, but is okay! We all is one super-happy family! And everyone maybe have drink with little umbrella and fruit! Is awesome! And funny! Why drink no want get wet?! Drink is ALREADY wet! Ha-ha-ha!"

Shorrin stands, "If you will have my hammer and shield, I will go." Shorrin turns to Psais, "Our lives for the life of another. Such is the way it is."

Shorrin has yet to be approved, but he is a level 3 fighter. His level 3 character sheet is linked to his name below. [/sblock]

Tristan sighs and gives a look to Mikara showing his agreement. "Go have a friendly talk with some city person who thinks he's rich because of all the gold he has ... no thanks." Mumbling under his breath the elf adds, "How long do I have to stay in this city?"
[sblock=OOC]I think I'll sit this one out, john. Looks like you've got more than enough to get a full crew with the people who were in the tavern before Tristan, and it doesn't really sound like his cup of tea either [/sblock]

 

[DMDanW]

As Tonk embraces Dextyr and the couple, Dextyr can feel the air being forced from his lungs.

"Ergh, Tonk, easy...you're, Arrgh...crushing me worse than that, Oogh..rock elemental did....."

As Tonk realeases them Dextyr sucks in a huge breath of air and then exhales, making sure all his internal parts are still working like they are supposed to.

"Tonk my friend, I would be honored to be the best man at your wedding, but first don't you think we should Find the girl first? We can celebrate afterward and make any future plans"

Dextyr turns the the recovering couple. "Please take no offense from my excited friend here. He means you no harm, and is only very excited to help you in your time of need." He gives the couple and then Tonk a friendly and reassuring smile.

Dextyr then turns and walks over to their table to gather his belongings. Looking at each Mikara and Tristan Dextyr waves a good bye.
"It was an honor to have fought at your sides. Good luck in whatever may come your way, and I hope that our paths once again cross and we may fight side by side again." He secures his pack, grabs his lute and makes his way back over to Tonk and the others.

The couple looks at Janus with a smile. A few weeks ago our daughter began acting strangely she would walk about in a daze and... Their smile turns to open mouthed shock as Tonk begins speaking. As he continues and approaches their eyes widen and the begin to shake nervously before he clasps them in a hug. They look about the room for help. As Dextyr approaches they latch on to him like a life raft. Our thanks good sir M'rgan. They hold on to him as he extricates himself from Tonk and they look around. Ah, sir Murphy, we would appreciate your aid as well in apprehending this unjust knave. They look over at the dragonborn. You seem very noble and strong as well, sir. Seeing the crowd only growing, the take a step
back towards the door. Perhap we can explain more on the short road out of Daunton to our home near the forest.

[sblock=OOC] Okay we are at the limit for this adventure already, yay. Just one spot open if we run into someone on the way out.

Just Before Nightfall - Tonk (KenHood) striker, Murphy Tang (renau1g) striker, Dextyr (DMDanW) leader, Shorrin (OnlytheStrong) defender, Janus (charger) controller

Waiting on DarwinofMind and Mal Malenkirk potentially, but I will create the adventure board already to get the NPCs talking to the PCs.

Shorrin stands, "If you will have my hammer and shield, I will go." Shorrin turns to Psais, "Our lives for the life of another. Such is the way it is."

"It'll be good ta be at yer side again Shorrin, this time though, I won't be shooting anyone from tha back, I'll be nice and close with this" Murphy says to his draconic ally, patting his bastard sword. "Hopefully, it's a bit warmer than our last time out eh?"

Murphy nods and follows the others out, but before he goes the man turns, looks over the remaining patrons and reaches into his pouch, pulling out a gold piece. He flings it to the barkeep, "One more round fer the pretty elf lass" the man says tossing a wink to Mikara.

"It'll be good ta be at yer side again Shorrin, this time though, I won't be shooting anyone from tha back, I'll be nice and close with this" Murphy says to his draconic ally, patting his bastard sword. "Hopefully, it's a bit warmer than our last time out eh?"

"If I never feel ice again, it will be too soon." Shorrin smiles at Murphy. "When the fighting starts... remember I am on your side friend."

Shorrin gathers his belongings and politely excuses himself from his conversation with Psais. "Until the gods allow us to meet again. May I find you in good health."

Shorrin turns and quickly (and loudly) walks out the door of the tavern.
