Planescape - Dead God Rising

[Nalfeshnee]

Nuan has been silently observing the goings on, offers the occasional bleak sermon on the darkness of the multiverse, but is largely quiet

OOC: im not sure is Rowport will be able to carry on playing and i dont particularly want to handle an NPC. Ive sent him two emails, though hasnt replied yet. ive given him a week - considering since he hasnt posted anything in two weeks and checks out the site every day, it could a problem with his internet or the site itself. If he cannotsort it out ill have to let Nuan go, though will keep in mind for later reintrodcution if Rowport gets things sorted out

OOC: Nuan's constant babbling about destruction and entropy was both hipocritical and disturbing. He shall be missed, well not really.

So does the fact that I can't tell anything about the Zeny's age due to his people's long livedness mean that I can't tell anything about how old a fellow Aasimar is since they have almost identical lifespans?

i replied in the OOC thread: try keep longer OOC discussions there (such as full post ones).

Tyrjon

Rubious turns to Tyrjon, 'Any factol with half a brain would know that the one called Tenebrous offers n ought but screed. Even were he not destroyed, he would care about nothing more than himself and keeping and expanding his power. Tenebrous killed many deities in his short life, and had he not been destroyed... who knows what would have happened.'

'I cannot believe that the Dustmen have fallen to this madness. I cannot. But, the temptation of learning the full nature of True Death from its ultimate osure would be too great for many to see through, to see the foolishness of takeing the owrd of an entity so evil. But Tenebrous is dead, destroyed by the righteous years ago.

"I meant no disrespect Rubious, I would not expect droves o' Dustmen to fall prey t' such madness, even if this proves not t' be screed... But the War has proven that even the most canny high ups can fall prey t' the lure of power beyond their reach." There is a hint of bitterness in his voice at the end, remember the folly of his own former factol.

'But dead gods have been known to not stay dead; perhaps a part of him survives in Carceri?'

he says with a grave look on his face.

Looking down at the bloody corpses at their feet and the barmies huddled near cages in fear, Tyrjon's voice is equally grave.

"Someone certainly seems t' believe it."

'I fear that my buisness in the Hive may be linked with this. I was to meet with the so called King-of-the-Barmies regarding the matter of the disappearances that have been plaguing the area. I thinkwe may have discovered more here than he would have ever told me, but i feel as though we must still find him. Perhaps he truly does have something of importance to say.'

"Agreed..." Tyrjons voice trails off as he slowly turns towards two of the "barmies" as they reveal themselves to be more than your typical Hive dwellers.

'What keeps you here? should we not get out of this place now?' asks the Marquis

 

[Nalfeshnee]

Rubious turns to Tyrjon, considering his words.

'Is it too obviosu to think that these kidnappers and their belief in Tenebrous are linked?'

Tyrjon

With the great number of disappearances in connection with a God of Undeath, Tyrjon can draw only one conclusion...

"A body's got to feed... even a god. And I imagine the hunger of an undead god is greater than most..."

The Marquis words stirring him from his musings, Tyrjon raises an eyebrow and nods slowly.

"Cutters, while I'm also tempted t' see where the lower passage leads I think we should see to th' safety o' these people first and pay a visit with this 'King of the Barmies' before comin' back. It's up to you cutters, but I'd like everyone t' be at full strength before persuin' this any further."

Noch the Shadowswyft

Noch was working on the lock while the rest were discussing their next move.

[sblock]
A total of 20 for detect traps, and if none are found, a total of 34 for open locks.
Noch will not open the hatch, but will leave it unlocked if he succeeds.

When Noch hears Tyrjon's decision the shadowswyft snorts and mumbles, "Barmies all." He kicks the lock, and it's obvious that his companions are angering him since they are taking the barmy talk of Tenebrous being alive seriously. Another part of him, the worrying part, doesn't want to conceive of Tenebrous being risen once more. This is beginning to sound not worth the beer money. Regardless, Noch guides the group out of the sewers, and also ensures that they avoid the cranium rats he had befriended earlier.

Rubious
Rubious looks at Noch and raises an eyebrow; Looks like someones' in a hurry to leave. 'I agree with Tyrjon. We get these cutters out of the hive, ang go look for the Barmy King.

OOC: Did Noch get the thing open?
