Ptolus- Palace of the Silver Princess (Campy)

[Mista Collins]

Once hearing that comment, Carl looks to the kobolds and then appears to be talking to himself so that everyone can listen. "Oh shucks! I forgot how to open a sack of coins. I wish there were someone around here who would open this bag for me. I'd offer them a nice payment." Pulling a platinum piece from his pocket he starts to rolling it back and forth down his fingers as he whistles a tune.

"Huh, poison? I don't see any poison..." Thorg wonders as he looks at the bag of coins.

[sblock=ooc]Sense Motive... They're trying to use reverse psychology on us, right?[/sblock]

 

[Deuce Traveler]

The kobold shrugs. "Somewhere in castle, thinks I. Maybe near throne. He liked throne."

As Carl and Thorg take a closer look at the bag of coins in Carl's hands they do notice that the coins themselves seem to have a thin glaze over the coppers.

"Okay flee now and return not to this palace, change begins here and now. Flee for a new world order has begun." says Thym in an intimidating voice.

 

[Mista Collins]

With sigh, Carl puts his platinum piece away. "Gross! This is dirty money! I don't want this."

As Thym threatens the kobolds, Carl's appearance changes into something very menacing. He appears stout and green with teeth that could almost be called tusks. His nose becomes flat and his hair black and a total mess. He pulls the look of quite nicely, too bad his hat of disguise doesn't allow him to have the stench of an orc. Pounding his fists together, Carl eyes the kobolds. "Now get!"

 

[Deuce Traveler]

"AAHH!" The kobolds had begun to file out of the room in an orderly manner, but upon Carl's 'transformation' they flee in complete terror. Pete flutters back to Samuel's shoulder and says in admiration, "Now that there is one heck of a trick, boss."

 

[InVinoVeritas]

Thorg smiles broadly. "Aw, Carl! I didn't know you were part orc! Brother!"

He grabs Carl in a bear hug. He stops mid-hug, face dropping.

"Oh, that was tight... Do you need healing?"

 

[Mista Collins]

With a grunt orc-Carl tries to smile. "No thanks, I'll be fine."

Once, or if Thorg puts Carl down, Carl heads for the door. "Let's go find this boss man with a big hat."

 

[Deuce Traveler]

Carl steps out and sees that the corridor is now empty with no signs of the kobolds. There are three more doors on the east side of the passageway, and one door in the center of the western wall. A 'T' intersection is visible at the end of the passage that is still unexplored.

"Did that pixie just address me as boss?" Samuel says quietly.

To the rest of the party, he adds: "Right, I say west door."
