(OOC: Of course. Alaric just doesn't have anything else to say right at this point in the tavern. I would never just disappear or stop paying attention. If for some odd reason I couldn't post for a few days or weeks, I would say so. And I've been active in several other threads in the past few days.)

Alaric decides the conversation has turned boring, especially with people just up and leaving now, so he walks out to go get some rest rather than wait around for anything else interesting to happen.
 

OOC: Okie dokie. Just a reminder, I wait to post until every player has posted, so if you have nothing to really contribute, just say so. ;)

The Adventurer's Guild Compound

The guard's eyes go wide with shock, "This is a sentient being, and a member of the guild! I should have you arrested!"

At that particular moment, the others come out of the tavern and see Muzdum and a guild guard arguing over the dragon's body and...

Shayuri sees a pale young woman near the dwarf and the guard, trying to calm the guard down.

Aohdan, Alaric, and Valen see Estelle.

Estelle sees three more of her former companions, accompanied by an Emiran woman she doesn't recognize. Trailing behind them, sticking close to Valen, is an elven woman she also doesn't recognize.

The Adventurer's Guild Tavern

Still inside the tavern, Vashar answers Johen's questions as he inspects the bodies of his companions.

"Our group was put together by a guild official from the large number of new members who've signed up just to compete in the tournaments. None of us knew eachother very well, and we certainly didn't know she was a dragon. I'd imagine the guild officials knew, of course. She didn't act sick until she attacked us."

He gets up, brushing off his hands, "I should go speak with the guild officials. And your companions appear to have left without you."

The Lords' Mansion, Lady Nineveh d'Anovia's Quarters

The servant raises an eyebrow in annoyance, "Be aware that threatening a servant of the Lords' Manor is a criminal offense and is also likely to result in an embarrassing dressing down for your lady. I'm sure you fine, upstanding gentlemen don't want your lady to suffer diplomatic repercussions."

Dominic ignores Renaldo completely, seemingly unaware of his arrival, "Give me the damn platter, peon!"

At this point the door to Lady Nineveh's quarters opens and Nineveh herself appears in the doorway, "What is all this?"

Dominic shoves the servant down, drawing his rapier, "Beware, my lady! This lout has poisoned your food. He's an assassin!"

OOC: Please make a Sense Motive check.
 

OOC: ahk! now[/be] what have you done to poor renaldo!


Renaldo stands befuddled by Dominic's uncharacteristicly aggressive behavior

1d20+7=21

(will post next accordingly to his success or failure to sense someone's motive)
 


Outside the guild, Shayuri thinks she knows what's wrong and hurries to reassure the guard.

"Excuse me, I was there and I saw what happened. This dragon..." her voice lowers sadly, "...she died of the plague. She was maddened and attacked, but she didn't die of the wounds anyone made while defending themselves. I'm willing to make a statement of that fact under oath. No one here is guilty of murder."
 

"Yeah! The woman's right, ye better watch what yer sayin' boy, Ah' know very important people up there, so don't make me use my influences!" The dwarf protests.
 

Dominic is clearly not himself and may be the victim of some sort of magical influence.

Mi' lady! something is not right! please stand back!

Dominic! snap out of it!

Punch dominic in the face (i have to get to work soon, can you take care of rolling for me? click on character sheets below to get a link to renaldo)
 

Aohdan speaks up to support shayuri's account. "Pardon my dwarven friend, he does have a dark sense of humor. We are investigating the dragon plague and in his zeal over finding another victim he has gotten a little ahead of us in bringing the body to an appropriate place for study. Possibly you could direct us there, mister...". Aohdan raises his eyebrows for the implied question.

Valen shakes his head and can only barely restrain a grin at the exchange between Muzdum and the guard. He then signals to Estelle and whispers briefly to Aleera. "That is Estelle. She was originally part of our company, and as I remember, William's lady."

The tall ranger then approaches Estelle. "Glad to see you are well. Let me introduce you to Aleera."
