[QUOTE="Tecklenburg, post: 6574004, member: 6781356"] Having arranged things with the constable before we left, I speak to my frightened, cowardly little friend in his native goblin tongue. "Abnor, this is where we part ways. At least for now. You will have work and a place in Earthmaw. They have need of good sled teams and you manage your group with high proficiency. When we return from the Coldlands, you are welcome to come with us." I pat his shoulder and follow the king and his contingent up the steps. The loyal brothers are flanking me one step below on the way up. I'll look back at Xanob and Exel and whisper in goblin, "...stay near me...in case this goes south." When they give me some sign of "affirmative", I'll give them a strong nod, indicating my trust in them. To Saerie I'll speak openly in elven. "You have stalked or battled every wild beast to ever walk, crawl, swim, slither, or fly at some point. What can you tell me of the disposition of white dragons? Should I be deferential in parley or should I stand my ground here?" [sblock]Obviously looking for some help by way of your new move, [B][I]Decades of Experience[/I][/B]![/sblock] I'll await Saerie's reply before I engage the dragon with words. But here is my DD for the Fear effect. [sblock]I'm going to use my 1 prep from [B][I]Bolster [/I][/B]and the presence, bravery, and loyalty of the goblin brother's strengthens my resolve. I'm using their [B][I]Intervene [/I][/B]ability so + 1 but I can only get a 7-9. Defy Danger (Wis) 1, 4 + 0 (+ 1 prep) (+ 1 Intervene) = 7. Success but the GM will offer you a worse outcome, hard bargain, or ugly choice.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
