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

[s@squ@tch]

OOC: I did a quick check of the RG, and I notice that Hudder, of all people, has the highest Diplomacy mod at +4 in the group, so take that for what its worth. Scary, I know. Alain, of course, as being a bard, has +17 modifier, but rpgramen has used Flee the Scene and is gone.

Hudder is nudged from behind by someone to do the talking thing. "We be 'ere on official 'ouse business as a search an rescue party. We be seekin what became of a pair oh investigatin parties that was sent ta these parts. So we need ta be searchin this whole place til we find em." He taps his shield on the invisible wall in a light knock. "Ya wouldn't be wantin to stop us from doin our jobs now would yuh?" He adds with an innocent grin.

Diplomacy=17

Dori will remain cautious, his hand close to his blade, but not drawing it until they learn the true intentions of the others. Without his spells, the dwarven cleric knew that he was not nearly at full strength.

The robed man listens to the dwarf speak -- his impassive eyes staring directly at Hudder.

As Hudder finishes his appeal and taps on the invisible wall blocking the elevator, a slight smile appears on the mans face. [diplomacy check succeeds - turned from indifferent to friendly]

"Your eloquence has struck a chord deep within me," he says, trying not to laugh,"So, you are on a search-and-rescue operation? And not on a search-and-pillage one?"

"Wait, what's this? " He peers towards Dreadnought, looking above him in the lift, his brow beginning to furrow,"Who is watching us right now?"

Hudder looks back to see what the man is looking at.

Sensing the mood change, Dreadnought puts his sword away. There's a thin rasp of metal as he shakes his head ruefully.

"We've gained the attention of some creature that has been spying on us," he intones. "The invisible eye is following me, and seems to be tireless. Our attempts to destroy it have failed."

"We apologize for the inconvenience. If it helps, I believe these things can't see very far. I am accustomed to keeping my distance from the others when and where possible."

 

[s@squ@tch]

"Well, I am not one who is keen on being spied on from afar."

He watches Dreadnought put his weapon away, then gestures with his hands in an intricate pattern, then he motions his arms quickly again, murmuring some arcane syllables.

"There. Now there is no unwanted interlopers watching what is going on."

"Now, how might I serve your search and rescue effort?"

Morph cocks his head at the wizard. "We have explained our reasons for our presence. What is yours?"

 

[s@squ@tch]

Without looking at Morph in particular,"I travel the lands of Xen'drik to discover the secrets of time long lost."

He snaps his fingers and a small blue globe of light appears over his fingers, it grows and turns as he speaks, showing images of the giant ruins, magical buildings, and artwork, flashing across the sphere.

"Much as a carpenter would ponder the craft techniques and materials of a house built many ages ago, so do I with respect to the ancient civilizations that brought wondrous creations onto this plane."

He snaps his fingers again and the globe disappears.

"I can assure you that the party you seek is not behind this door, as it has not been opened since the giants themselves closed it millenia ago."

"If I may be of further assistance, just ask, else, I need to get back to my study of these glyphs and sigils, to attempt to understand how to disarm them."
