[QUOTE="Urko, post: 2221013, member: 30822"] [b]Dockside encounter (Borden, 'he has no name')[/b] After his interview with Calabas, Devian Borden took stock of and gathered up his possessions for tomorrow’s expedition. Too excited to sleep, he decides to take a late night walk. Pier six of the riverside dock is easy to locate. There are several vessels moored there, but no one is about at the moment and it is not immediately apparent which is the one he is to meet. About a hundred yards away, Devian can see a light burning in the dock manager’s shack, but otherwise all is still. Dockside Park, a small imitation of the Public Gardens of Sigilstar, is just across the road. It’s a beautiful night and Devian is still wakeful, so he decides to continue his walk over there – the city walls and frequent patrols usually make the park safe at night. ‘Usually’ being the operant word in this case. Devian has just crossed a bridge and entered a more heavily tree covered area of the park when a blinding bolt of light sails past him, only inches from his head. A kobold, his neck heavy with necklaces and charms, steps out from behind a tree. [color=darkgreen]”That wass a warning, human. Drop your valuabless and leave. Quickly.”[/color] A rustling behind Devian is followed by the sound of a crossbow being set. Neither Devian nor his assailants are aware that there is another in the park this evening. A warforged with no name sits under a tree nearby, lost in his own thoughts and watching this little drama unfold. [color=silver]Devian and ‘he has no name’ need to roll for initiative.
