"Look, sorry, but I really have to be going. I'm needed up-country for an important corporate meeting next month and the camel train won't wait." So saying, he slipped on a Ring of Invisibility and headed for the door. Then he hesitated, struck by a sudden unaccountable dread of doorhandles. He felt a tingling at the back of his neck, as if someone was staring at him. It was weird. So weird that he wondered if the Ring was spooked, and took it off. Sure enough, the feeling stopped immediately. He studied the Ring intently, thoughtfully turning it over and over in his hand. It had never done that before.Across the room, someone stopped gazing intently at Jeremy and refused to wear clothes of a specific color.Keyes the Thief had meanwhile crept up behind Jeremy, taken advantage of his perplexity and picked his pockets. She got 16gp, a map of Neverwinter with Ye Secrett Magick Shoppe marked on it in invisible ink, and a clean handkerchief with a "J" embroidered in one corner. The handkerchief was freshly starched, neatly pressed and appeared to have been folded by someone who was borderline obsessive and at least a brown belt in origami. Jeremy certainly had some odd friends.Throg idly picked up a bar table and experimentally swung it as an improvised weapon. It felt clumsy, though, so he pulled off the table legs, thus creating two pairs of Very Big Clubs and a Tabletop of Shield Bashing. This was better. The ancestors approved. He pushed past Jeremy and charged out of the door to meet the goblins head-on. Alas, his bravery was to no avail. He did not survive.Bard (Balustrade) 19gpCleric (Sister Jericho) 17gpDruid (Moss) 19gpFighter (Foghorn) 26gpRanger (Granger) 14gpRogue (Ronni) 9gp 3ppSorcerer (Edgiban) 29gp, a Girdle of Giant Strength (Storm), and Mr Choppy-Chop the Magic BattleaxePala-Tavern Keeper-Din (Roland Butter) 15gp- - - Mimic (Gobblet, hench to P-TK-D) 18gpThief (Keyes) 30 gp, a Secret Map and a Handkerchief of FoldingWarlock (Jeremy) 0gpWizard (Book) 16gp 1pp</blockquote>
