S@squ@tch's N1: Against the Cult of the Reptile God IC

[Phoenix8008]

Wiping the back of his arm across his mouth, Stonefist finishes putting away his waterskin. Seeing Ari head off to question the villager, the dwarf speaks after Alessin. "Well now. I suppose the direct route is now in order, hmm?" He walks slowly down the lane into the village proper, keeping Ari in sight and waving one hand back at the party in a 'come on, follow me' fassion.

Gideon Novak - Human Mercenary

Gieeon ever a proponant of "The direct approach" grunts his agreement and starts forward, whistling a dirty little tune through his gapped teeth.

To your left (#1 on the map) is a wooden house, surrounded by attractive flower gardens, with a small barn beyond. A teenage girl is churning butter on the porch.

To your right, (#4) is a house and barn, both freshly whitewashed. Several cows chew their cud just outside the barn. Three little girls playing in the yard of the house stop and gawk at the group.

In the distance, (#2) is a nondescript wooden building with heavy shutters closed over the windows. The door looks stout, but stands open. No people are visible. Behind this building is another long, low structure.

OOC:

If you want to head further into town, please advise onto where the party is moving on the map.

Whenever possible, please refer to your actions with directions on the map. (i.e. move past buildings #2 and #4 to the intersection) The village map I provided above is not a tactical map, but a map to help you in your interaction with the town of Orlane. The fog-of-war will be lifted as you explore more of Orlane and then you can name your destination.

Building 1 seems closest so Ari poses his question there. He doesn't feel the little girls at 4 would be much help.

 

[Ayden]

Krager follows the others, but keeps his eyes open in case the quiet town is more than it seems.

Alessin Greenbond

Alessin stands a few paces back and allows Ari to do the talking, for now. He keeps his eyes and ears open, listening carefully to the teenage girl's response.

Pleasant Farmhouse and Barn

As your group approaches the farmhouse, the girl runs into the house. Most of the windows in the house have the curtains pulled across them. Shadowy forms are visible behind the closed curtains on the first floor, near the door that the girl ran through.

Gideon Novak - Human Mercenary

Gideon walks down the street, looking for what appears to be the most "well-to-do" residence. (They can probably afford to hire him). If he dosen't see anything that stands out, he will look for an Inn or Tavern, travelling deeper into the town, noting buildings as he goes.

 

[s@squ@tch]

OOC: Let me know if the group is going to split up.

I'd prefer to keep the group together from a logistical perspective, but given the nature of the party, I will not require you to.

 

[airwalkrr]

Such a queer response. Almost as if they don't like elves or something. Ari rubs his chin and looks around to see if the little girls have noticed, if not, he will approach them.
