Grechen : Female Shifter Rogue 1

Smiling to herself at her success, she decides to search through the market for anything of value or any other easy pickings for extra silvers or coppers. She meanders through the market searching for anything of interest.

Gretchen continue to observe around for potential things to steal. The crowd is moving quickly, people are also moving quickly, transaction are made really fast and it is very difficult to follow everything. (spot roll 3-2) Gretchen is unable to notice any other opportunity to use her dextrous finger.

Grechen : Female Shifter Rogue 1

She is about to give up when she decides to search for anything of value. Perhaps there is something of value amongst all of the junk. She realizes it is a long shot, but decides to search anyway. She starts with the merchant that Tai was dealing with and then moves on to the other merchants. She searches through what they have for sale trying to locate anything of value. She will of course keep her eyes open for any 'unclaimed' money.

Zanick 'Zane' Marcela, human wizard

Zane nods his head in agreement "Lets go then... I want to find this 'tunnel' or whatever... maybe paying the goblin his 3 gold will get us moving in the right direction right away..."

 

[DarkMaster]

Gretchen starts looking into the large pile of junk (search roll 16+5). As she search the goblin (the one who offered to lead the group to the valves) observes her "Anything you want here let me know, I will make a very good price just for you my lady."

After a quick search Gretchen is able to find the following useful items: what seems to be a unused sunrod, a small bell, a scratch steel mirror and 50' of rope. Gretchen can feel the eyes of the goblin on her as she manipulate the various goods on the table.

OOC As for the others I am waiting for your next action. You go back to the market, pay the goblin or go down the pipes.

 

[Delemental]

Tai will return to the market, accompanied by Zane and Pohl, and will approach the goblin merchant. She will catch Grechen's eye as well as she approaches.

"It seems that I owe you an apology, sir. My haste has made me irritable, I'm afraid. If the offer is still open, I would like to retain you as a guide to the valve cluster we spoke of earlier?"

Tai will pay the goblin from her own money if possible, though she has less than 4 gp to her name. Although aware that Pohl has offered to cover the expense, she feels loath to take someone else's money to pay for this. Ultimately, though, she realizes that getting to the valve cluster benefits all of them equally, and she also would like to be able to buy food and a place to sleep after this is over with.

As the others arrives Grechen is pointing at the sunrod and about to ask its price when Tai asks her question. She waits for the merchant's response.

 

[DarkMaster]

The sunrod seems to be in perfect condition. "Ho, I can see we have a connaissor" The goblin takes the sunrod out of her hand and says holding it "I am completly loosing my head here and offers it for the ludicrous price of 25cp"

He then sees Tai approache again, he initially tries to ignore her, but when she asks him the question he smiles and turns towards her. "Ok, I will lead you to the cluster for 50 sp as we previously agreed"He adds looking at Tai very seriously still holding the sunrod.

Grechen jumps at teh chance. She pulls out 3 of the silver she got earlier.

"I'll take it! Do you have change?"

 

[Delemental]

"Ok, I will lead you to the cluster for 50 sp as we previously agreed"

Tai looks at the goblin for a minute, chewing her bottom lip. We agreed on thirty, not fifty, she thinks, but I'm at a disadvantage and we both know it. Pressing the issue now won't get me anywhere.

Slowly, she will turn to address Pohl. "Master D'Velderan, I'm afraid I may have to impose upon you and your House again. As you have heard, this merchant has named a price for his services, but it exceeds what I personally carry. I will, of course, compensate you at the earliest opportunity."

She is looking very uncomfortable about having to ask for money, especially knowing what Pohl's likely opinion is of having to pay the goblin anything.
