[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 4105449, member: 29014"] (OOC: I actually already rolled you a Diplomacy check against this guy--the one I rolled was a 12 instead of a 16, but still very high. He basically started out as Hostile to Rinaldo, especially Rinaldo's spooky words of power. Now he is in the Unfriendly/Indifferent range, but he still has orders, and a soldier probably would not defy direct orders even if Helpful (though maybe). (The reason he's bordering on Unfriendly rather than Friendly is because nobody will do what he has asked like four times, instead siccing Rinaldo on him to try to bamboozle him into leaving without getting the answer he came for, which makes him extremely suspicious).) "No. I already know the situation. Though you are not welcome here, you are not technically trespassing on sacred ground at the moment. However, we would prefer you to leave. In any case, I want to hear where your friend is from someone else. Not you. [I]Now[/I] please. I'm not going to listen to another word you have to say until I get what I came for. In fact, if you must know, I shouldn't have listened to as much as I did, but your words sounding convincing. If you are the next person to talk, I will assume the worst." (OOC: @Erekose--that's the elves' idea. They know Rinaldo can outbluff anyone they send, so they wanted to watch someone answer who might have a visible tell or is otherwise a poor bluffer) [/QUOTE]
