Strahd's "The lost Caverns of Tsojcanth" CLOSED

[Rhun]

Turo bows low to the Chieftain. "We thank you for your hospitality, Chieftain Ga'Tarolash. Our path through the mountains has been filled with peril, and we welcome the chance to rest among such fine people. We will happily await the Laird of the Vale's pleasure."

 

[Steve Gorak]

"indeed we thank you" Keldar says with as much decorum he can muster. "I am suprized you don't see humans more often. I would think that my kind would flock to this hospitable land, to trade and savor your fine brew. Where the previous travellers traders?"

OCC:[sblock] Trying to see if the other travellers are our competition. If they are and since the gnomes let them in, it means that they're likely non-evil, which we need to remember when interacting with them (can't just go and kill good folks...).

Sense Motive (Rog):+7
Diplomacy (Rog): +4

“Many thanks. Your hospitality is truely legendary and we will, of course, honor your requests,” Allyra says, while taking a look around as they are brought into the visitor's quarters.

Turo relaxes in the comfortable room provided, sampling the local brew and food. He smiles at his companions. "You may take your rest here, friends. We are quite safe from enemies"

They were like him
Says chieftain Ga'Tarolash before he turns to leave and points to Eliyyad

Maor relaxes in the room, removing his breastplate to remain with the padding shirt below. Even as he relaxes he shakes his head in dismay. "Already the Blacklunish sorcerers outpace us. Oh well, there is nothing to be done about this now. Let us enjoy this respite."

Allyra

“We could buy a pearl or three, in case we come along something magical we would like to know more about without having to go back to the settlement first. I am able to discern the nature of magical items, but those pearls are needed in the spell. And the price is quite good.”

 

[Yair]

"Certainly" replies Maor, "I think we got some gems and stuff from the ogre's cave, no? Use that to barter for some pearls, sure."

The Audience Room

Noon turns to evening and the hours pass peacefully, the gnomish merchants of the vale are honorable, kind, trusted and chip. Children pop out to see the strangers and scattered by the servants away, just to pop again and flee again.

The Laird will see you now.
Says a small gnome female, a cleric of Glittergold, and leads you around a stone wall to a big 10 ft. high (In gnomish standards) hall, she goes to stand beside the Laird who sit upon an impressive carved stalagmite chair, he is an old gnome with thick beard , a gnome wizard stands to his right, gnome guards armored with polearms and shiny armor stands all around.
The Laird smiles and raises his hand
Laird Gwaylar the wise I am, I greet those who are pure hearted and regard themselves as our allies and friends
He says and takes a swig from his bottle
Tell me …who you are and what news you bring from the human lands and the southern Yatils, and I'll share my knowledge.

Gorash the lonesome is my name, scout and a ranger of the Yatils and Lorridges.
Says the dwarf and bows.

Turo

Turo moves forward, offering the gnome Laird a low bow. "I am Turo Beremwocket, Oracle of Garl Glittergold. We thank you for your hospitality, Laird Gwylar."
