S@squ@tch's Against the Giants - Team Black

[DEFCON 1]

Yoggrith sits and waits patiently as the discussions continue, and even the mention of the brain-sucking did not seem to make an impression on him. Whether that is because he truly was not bothered by it, is very good at keeping his emotions in check, or was really just not listening, is hard for anyone to say.

Jaxel's note, however, sparks more of a reaction that the mind flayer point did. "It is a shame. He was a fierce warrior... although more than a little foolhardy. To keep him on his feet took more doing than a more tactically sound warrior would require."

His head turns in the direction of the new dwarf, although he does not meet the fighter's eyes. "I hope you hold rank in combat, rather than rush about. I do not have the speed to chase you across the field of battle to keep you healthy. But I will endeavor to do so regardless."

He then says to the group at large. "Shall we go?"

 

[Voadam]

Voadam frowns not liking the explanation for the gnome's dissapearance, nor fully believing it. "A moment Magroth. Who did he say his former employers were? I had not heard him speak about such. I think it would be worth confirming this lest it turn out otherwise. If we are being targeted one by one by factions who wish our mission ill it would be best we knew of it."

When Sanne came downstairs, you noticed a small disc, which you noticed was invisible trailing behind her. You have no idea what it is.

Thanor chuckes knowingly at the halfork's comment. If ye've never seen a dwarven phalanx in action, I can understand ye not bein' sure o' me style. Let me assure ye, once I plant me feet, ain't nobody goin' ta move me, least of all meself.

[sblock=Voadam/GM] As the group mills about, getting ready to depart, Ipshivi tugs at the sleeve of your robes and whispers "There is something invisible, some kind of floating disc or point of light following Sanne. I can't tell what it is, but I bet it is magic, and you seem to know the arcane pretty thoroughly."[/sblock]

Aeranduil remains quiet, taking in the conversation.

OOC: During the trip to Stormreach, Jaxel was overheard mentioning that he worked as a finder for House Sivis from time to tiime.

"Bleeding hell, now we have brain-sucking tentacled nasties out killing more of Tharashk's people? Someone's got a powerful grudge against them... Don't blame them for bringing in us to look it up, eh?" Morika said, though it's not clear if her tone is in jest or anticipation. "Oy, I talked t' a local giant druid, said his people wouldn't be making trouble for Tharashk. So at least we don't have to be watchin' our backs as much, eh? What else did people hear? Anything about hate for t' House?"

 

[Voadam]

As someone brings up House Sivis Voadam says "Does anyone know where their house representatives are in the city? I'd like to verify this note before leaving without the gnome. It should not take much time to do so."

Voadam looks to the side a little then nods once in acknowledgement and thinks for a moment with his hand upon his bearded chin as he ponders. He reaches down and pulls out a piece of parchment and quill from his backpack and places them on the breakfast table. Reaching in again he pulls out an inkwell and dips the quill into the well and scratches out a note. He passes the parchment to Sanne with a pleasant smile.

The parchment for Sanne:
[sblock]the note says "Do you bear magics that create an invisible disk of force or point of light behind you that follows you around? If not, shake your head no."[/sblock]

"Which giants? Do you know which type and tribes he was speaking of?"
