"I shall go my lady even if these fellows don't, i take care of those around me and help them when possible. If you would kindly show me which way to the Castle I need to go, please do, i will be there quick as possible"(Do you mind if im Lawful Good?, i know im a Sorcerer/Rogue but i was just woundering if i could be). "Would you perhaps have a map so it would be easier to show me where this Castle is? I would be honored to help them out in anyway possible, my magic can be a very useful tool with the works of soldiers beside me. For the reason of this map i have not been here very long, mayve two days or so, this area is very new to me, i only know the city limits since i got dropped off here since my other task was complete."(before the Campiagn)

The unshaven man, the last to line up, elbows his way up to the front. "Well-oh, excuse me," he says as he gently pushes a heavily armored man aside. "Well, my lady, as it happens, I, Parneshan Ferevist, am in the market for a job, and if you're offering me some coin to open a little land for the folk here, I don't know what we're wasting time here for. My companion-" he picks Quiven off the floor and clutches him against his dirty robe "-and I wouldn't refuse an offer to bring a little wealth and glory to the finest mind for magic out of Sembia in the past tenyear," he says with a grin to conclude to his short rambling. "So, in short, I'm your wizard. Now where are these hills?"

 

[Darik]

"Sorry for the interruption Wizard, but i was woundering if you wouldn't mind a young man like myself coming along with you", "I too am a magic user, but im sure we can find some others that would like to come along, if you wish for company that is."

 

[Ringmereth]

"You thought I'd go fight orcs and ogres with just Quiven? He's not much good at keeping them at good blasting range," Parn replies with a smile as he absently strokes Quiven's fur. "I would gladly take you if you can bring magic to bear alongside mine. The decision is our employers', though, and not mine," says the wizard, turning back to the dwarf and human pair.

......She leans forward, almost conspiritorally. "Castle Crag needs men," she says, "But in a larger sense, Cormyr needs heroes. They offer grants of land to heroes who clean out areas of those foul hills and hold it in the name of Cormyr. Would any of you be interested in that task?"

Upon hearing these words, Malachy says, "My father cleaned out the hills and after receiving land, he was still murdered by the savages. But the more land that is cliamed, the less land the murdering bands can have to regroup. So yes I will go and act the hero for you."

Carik RGR 2


The short wiry man near the front says "Being a wonderer, I've not much use for land. However, I hate these critters and would be happy to help exterminate them."

Turning to the Ilia and Gilif, Carik says "I'm sure the we can come to some arrangement."

"My name's Carik, I'm a hunter and scout."

Jareth Trueshield, CLR 2

The young priest nods respectfully to the dwarf woman and the human man. “Lady Gilif, Lord Ilia, as you may be aware, the members of my order are committed to aiding any who may enter the Stonelands on behalf of Cormyr. If these men,” he gestures to the wizard, the sorcerer, the fighter, and the ranger, “choose to accept your task, then I am honor bound to lend my assistance to their endeavor.”

"I can show you a map," Gilif says in response. She finds a scroll tube and unrolls the contents out upon the table in front of her.

"Here we are, in Arabel," she says, pointing. "We are on the western edge of Cormyr, as you know. The mountains you see north of us are the Storm Horns- there are only two passes through them, one called High Horn Pass far to the west, and Gnoll Pass, which is just northeast of here. Castle Crag guards Gnoll pass from those who would invade. The Stonelands are north of the mountains."

She pauses, and Ilia speaks up. "If you would be an adventuring party, rather than joining the garrison at the castle, the reception might be a little cool. The seneschal of the castle is called Bren Tallsword- he has a dislike for adventurers. They will hurry you along to the north."

"If you register your group with Cormyr, give yourselves a name," Gilif says, "he'll have no choice but to give you lodging and aid if you have to fall back to the castle."

[ooc1: Darik- sure you can be LG; you can pick your familiar from the normal PH list.]

[Ranger Rick]

"A name like the 8th home guards? I am fine with that."
