[QUOTE="Jolmo, post: 2819223, member: 14908"] Checking in. Here's how the old thread ended for Shan and Sulannus:[sblock=RA and Sulannus]*The guard posts is sparsely manned with a few guards on duty in the area.* "Halt, state your business," one of the guards calls out in greeting to the pair. --- "We wish to report a crime," Sulannus says, looking past the guard into the post. "Do you have a superior on duty? I'm sure the watch will want our full report, for a woman was attacked and kidnapped before our very eyes." --- "Another kidnapping?" the guard sighs, "You can give your testimony to the lieutenant then, if you want. Follow me." *He leads them into the small post to a desk where another guard is filling out some papers.* "Lieutenant, sir? We appear to have a visitor from the east who claims to have information on another disappearance, sir." "From the east?" he looks up at the two newcomers and nods, "Ah yes. Greetings, daughter of Sil'derr'an. You have information for me?" --- Sulannus nods, unconsciously assuming a courtier's posture, with her hands clasping each other and her back straightening. "As I came to your city, I noticed in an alley what I first thought to be a brawl...but on closer examination turned out to be a fight for survival. An unseen voice cast spells, summoning monstrous beasts, which this warrior..." she indicates Shan, "and several others, fought bravely. At their side was a young woman, unconscious on the street." "I joined them, but the creatures were too much for us. Though we finished them, they wounded us gravely, and the man who conjured them...a mage who seemed invisible to us...took the woman for reasons unknown. This happened two days ago, we were still too wounded to report yesterday." Finally she lifts a curious eyebrow. "Has this, or something like it, happened before? And if so, would you consider accepting our aid?" Again she glances at Shan and hastily adds, "Should the others be willing, of course." --- (My own post is missing. In short: "I am willing and it seemed the others were too. Do you think the same person was responsible for all kidnappings?") --- *The lieutenant addresses Shan first.* "Is it the same person? I wouldn't know. There could be one kidnapper who made a few kidnappings, an original who made only one kidnapping with copycats, or even disappearances that weren't kidnappings. We aren't really sure." *He turns back to Sulannus.* "An elven vigilante?" he raises an eyebrow, "While our peoples have always been at peace and have been on good terms since our alliance against the northern hordes, you still have no rights to extradition within our domain according to the law. Thus, I don't have the authority to authorise any vigilante actions you would take, none of the guards in the city do...However, if there is really a crazy mage on the loose, I'm sure that were you to take action 'without our knowledge', there would not be many who would call you down for it."[/sblock]How about the character sheets? I have the original version of Shan on disk, does everyone else have their character? The goody xp from the other thread will have to go to Shan. [/QUOTE]
