(PbP) The Trail of Fire

[Gimble Godshine]

He gestures to the shelf, errm, these are some items that my sons, uhh, found in the hospital, errm, on some, well what I mean to say, and, uhh," He hangs his head a moment, sighs and inhales deeply, he continues at a rapid pace, "-Mysonstoletheseitemsoffthebodiesofadventurerswhodiedinthehospitaloveryonder" He inhales deeply, haltingly almost in tears, "So won't you please buy them I'm sure nobody knows they're stolen and the mage that comes and identifies my things was supposed to be hear but never came, he was following the 'Trail of Fire' to the 'Draconi Cave' last I knew, and, he, he was my broth-" He bursts into hysterical tears, after calming down quite a bit he shows you the items:

Griff's Unusual Stock

A Bottle... It looks empty to everyone but Kharas who see's a small mechanism that would render it impossible to open it, for anyone but a nimble fingered rogue. Griff takes the bottle and tosses it and catches it a few times, "You want THIS? I can't get the Damn thing open, here," He tosses it to Kharas

A black glove It has odd symbols on the palm, Griff Comments, "It says 'Infinity' doncha know," He beams with pride "Used to be into ancient languages" "Ehhm, 20gp."

A Platinum Amulet "I was going to give that to me wife but 150 coin would be fine."

A Beat up looking Robe "Eh, it's got a few patches here and there but it's a fine garment and, aww who am i kidding if you take it for 5 Silver I'll give you this pretty stone I found in the pocket," A pretty pale blue stone is pinched tightly in between his index and thumb...

"That's all me odd Items, well not all, if you find me brother I'll let you all pick a pretty thing from me shop! How does that sound lads? I just hope the bugger isn't dead..."

He grows silent hoping you will purchase his things (After you do or don't make the purchases he gestures to his magical Items...)

"Listen boy. First, we don't want to know anymore of how you get it. You are an honest merchant who need to live like everybody and business can be bad sometimes. I had my share of problems too.

Second, if we ever see your brother, I'll make sure he gives you some news. Just tell me his name and what he looks like, and I won't forget it for sure.

Now let see that.

A Bottle... It looks empty to everyone but Kharas who see's a small mechanism that would render it impossible to open it, for anyone but a nimble fingered rogue. Griff takes the bottle and tosses it and catches it a few times, "You want THIS? I can't get the Damn thing open, here," He tosses it to Kharas[/B]

"Interesting. It can always be usefull. I want it."

A black glove It has odd symbols on the palm, Griff Comments, "It says 'Infinity' doncha know," He beams with pride "Used to be into ancient languages" "Ehhm, 20gp."[/B]

"My last gloves was ruined by the mechanic of a trap I made for my last contract, I need a new pair, they seems good, I want the too."

A Platinum Amulet "I was going to give that to me wife but 150 coin would be fine."[/B]

"Bah! Give it to your wife, and she will be happier for a week or two. I'm not interested."

A Beat up looking Robe "Eh, it's got a few patches here and there but it's a fine garment and, aww who am i kidding if you take it for 5 Silver I'll give you this pretty stone I found in the pocket," A pretty pale blue stone is pinched tightly in between his index and thumb...[/B]

"Nice rock, I'll take him, I may have a chance to do something with it. May be a good lure for a new trap. From afare, it seems precious, but from near, we can see it is not a precious stone. For the robe, can do one more skin on frost day. Not elegant but still usefull."

"That's all me odd Items, well not all, if you find me brother I'll let you all pick a pretty thing from me shop! How does that sound lads? I just hope the bugger isn't dead..."

"As I said, I'll look for it."

Kharas turn to his companion.

"I know, I look like a compulsive buyer, but if something I took interest you, I can leave it to you, I have a bad habit to take all that fall in my hands."

Back to the smith.

"We say, the bottle, the gloves, the robe and stones, and an armor... what you said you had for magic armor."

 

[Gimble Godshine]

"Thank you m'lord, have you tried on your robe, I haven't tried it on m'self I could tailor it if it needed it, and if you don't mind me saying, it may need it...Mr. Dwarf, eh, sir..."

"Ehhm, on the Magic topic, right this way..."

"Hehe, Vaul, you should be nicer to the good shop keeper. It is his job to sell fine weapons, no need to get huffy over it," Xiskrin says light-heartedly, "Hmm, armour on the other hand... Next time I get my hands on a fine bundle of loot you'll hear from me about that breastplate. Oh, and here's 150 for that shiny amulet, I'm sure you could get your wife something nice with that much."

Xiskrin puts on the amulet and tucks it under his shirt.

"One can never get enough magical goodies to aid thee in thy quests," he remarks, "But simply being aesthetic is good enough for me."

 

[Brother Shatterstone]

Krog: (Male /Bugbear/Barbarian 1)

Krog grunts in acknowledgement of the 1000 coins of gold, He gives the bag a quick run through to test the validly of the claims. Satisfied that all is well he scans the smith wears for anything of interest upon seeing none that interest him he speaks, “Smith I mean you no disrespect but everything I need I care upon my back. Maybe when I have more gold I can luck at your more magical stock.” He glances at the rest of the party, “I’m ready when you are.”

 

[Velmont]

"You have sure great works in your store, it is just too bad my purse is not heavy enough. Well, I'll take that bundle."

He puts on a table, the robe with the stone, the black gloves, the bottle and a magical spiked full plate mail.

"Let's see if I still know my math. 5sp for the robe, 20gp for the gloves. The armor is 1500 for armor, 1000 more for his enchantment (OOC:+2) and 50 more for the nice looking spikes. So the total is 2570gp and 5 sp. Am I missing something?"

Kharas start to take his gold out of his purse and count the money.

"Xiskrin, Krog, I need one last thing before going anywhere. It seems I forgot some tools on my last business, while I was testing my last creation. I would need some new ones, so I'll look for some disable traps tools and I'll be ready."

Before leaving. Put the goves on his hands, than put his armor, to finally put the robe, and take the stone and put it in his backpack.

"Tyhe robe will not last very long with those spikes. Bah! It seems pretty useless already."

 

[Gimble Godshine]

Velmont
As you don the robe you realize that there are about 30 little silken and cloth patches all over the robe, some labled some not. when walking out the door you accidentaly trip and the stone flies out of your hand...and starts to float around your head, and you feel like you could Declothe someone without them knowing it with the newfound nimbleness in you...(OOC: Homebrew Ioun Stone, +3 to Dex. ) (I Don't wanna keep adding it in secret...)

Shatterstone
As you put the necklace on you notice the smoke from the armorsmiths pipe flows around you by about 2ft. and the air smells wonderfull, like an orange orchard, mixed with a beutiful summer day

He nods in acgknowledgement towards Krog "As you wish."

"Oh," Yells the shopkeeper "My brother's Name is Xander, altho, He sometimes goes by "Rasp" Out fathers were of a different, eh, sort."

 

[Velmont]

Kharas look amazingly at the flying stone.

"I hate flies, and now I have a stone who is turning around me like a fly... Great! Still, I feel more agile... Bah! It will amaze people and they will think twice before doing anything weird at me!"

The dwarf stop by a blacksmith.

"Hi smithy, I need some tools you may have, tools to disable traps and open lock, and no, I'm not a thief, I'm a troobleshooter, and I need it to earn honestly my living. If you have some masterwork piece of these, I'll take it, if not, regular one will be enough."

OCC: If the trade is done:

"Ah! Now I'm ready to go... Well, that birdman havn't show up yet, so what we do..."

 

[Festy_Dog]

"Heh, not just a pretty bauble," Xiskrin says in appreciation of his new trinket, "And at a discount price too. Good sir, I take my hat off to you."

He pulls his hood back up before returning to the street.

"Oh, and how fares Guk?" Xiskrin asks Krog, "I trust he's in good health?"

"Oh, and how fares Guk?" Xiskrin asks Krog, "I trust he's in good health?"

At the sound of his name the little critter pokes his head out of Krog's backpack a flap of which comically covering one of his eyes as he irrately tries to blow it off his eye, sighing after giving up on his futile attempts, "Guk okay, ride bumpy, anything Guk can do for you?" He grins, you are surprised at how clean and straight his teeth are, not great but amazing for goblin standards, he sees you gawking at his teeth, "Inn-Lady says Guk's breath bad, teathes dirty, she clean poor Guk's teethes, oh poor, poor Guk," He grins at you and says in a softer voice behind his hand, "Inn-Lady pretty, Guk sits himself stills, yes he did!" He does a little dance and acts as if he is walking down a spiral staircase back into the bag.

"He's quite the ham isn't he," says a voice, upon turning around you see the man that gave you the map, you do a double take, he grins and hefts his mace, "Heh, I see you noticed that I have cured my, ah, affliction, oh, how do you like your bags, and I had the armorsmith show you his collection, and I for one found his prices albeit steep..." "Hmmm..." "Aha!" A small puff of smoke issues forth from his finger, "Upon slaying 25 monsters" He draws a silver '25' that floats in the air for a second before it bursts into a little moving, golden picture of a gaggle of little things being chased by a man with a mace, "You will find his wares will be, a mite cheaper." He bows and waves good bye as he starts to fade away, "Bye, Guk," a muffled "Bye Bye, Gimble" Issues forth from the bag, "Bye Vaul," He grins, probably at Vaul's responce.

OOCamn that was a long train ride, NYC-Chicago-Twin Cities, anyway, you get the tools you needed Velmont...

IC:You are heading out of town, or possibly the Weaponsmiths when you notice a sign thereof(OOC:The weaponsmiths if there was a doubt), "SHOP CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE." You hear a soft muffled crying inside...
