The Four Lands - Dark is Rising

[Lou]

Blue robed human male

Lou,

The goodwife is still tending the central common room and is happy to assign him a room. "Should you be needing a bath sir there are two on each floor to accomodate guest."

The young man responds, "Thank you. I do need to clean up after the hard ride." With a short bow, the man takes his things to his room. After arranging things, he ventures forth to the bath on his floor, taking only his valuables and necessities in his backpack, leaving the saddle, saddle bags, crossbow, and quiver in his room.

OOC: [MENTION=48762]Leif[/MENTION] and @Mowgli need to post so we can get things moving

OOC: Good gravy! I completely missed the opening of this thread! I likely won't have much time to absorb what's happened so far this evening, but I'll get on it ASAP. Once I've caught up I'll post up.

Logan is too busy counting to notice much.

"Here. This should be more then enough. I will take interest. Can you point me toward an alchemist shop of repute and exchange enough money for 1 healing potion?"

He deposits 200gp. He exchanges 18gp 7sp and 1cp. If possible, exchange additional money for healing potion if he has enough money.

While Espejo considers whether or not to get a sfebox, he casually glances round the room.

As the others make their transactions, Anessen take a moment to examine his surroundings.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

As the others complete their business at the moneychangers a tall, thin man turns from the counter as well. Though his features are in the main those of the desert dwellers of the western steppes, the wide horn stubs on his brow and the pointed canines (top and bottom) showing as he smiles reveal that this man shares the blood of an extra-planar being somewhere in his heritage. The Shendyt and Saqraka - the traditional kilt and hooded shoulder pauldrons - further confirm the man's origins in the Western Steppes.

He smiles and speaks in a surprisingly deep and mellifluous voice. "Ah, I see I am not the only one recently directed to this fine establishment. I am Jadu et-Tefl, but recently come to this city from my father's home in the West. And you are the first I have seen here who are plainly traveling rather than working."

[sblock=Appearance]Jadu is 6'4" tall and looks to weigh around 180 to 190, with jet black hair, emerald green eyes and sun-dark skin.[/sblock]

[sblock=OOC/JA]Jadu has just completed the deposit of 150 GP, and the changing of 50 more to local currency - as I don't know the exchange rate (and as financial matters are not my forte) would you mind doing the math for me? Just let me know how much he's got on deposit and how much local currency he's now carrying, please.[/sblock]

 

[Scotley]

"A blessing upon a fellow traveler then Jadu et-Tefl. I am Anessen of the Great Wood. Would you care to join a band of weary travelers for an evening repast?"

Those who are glancing around the room find that several of the patrons are giving coin to the tellers then handing over what appears to be either a steel or lead calling card at which time the clerk places it on the counter in front of him and after a few seconds hands the card back to the person in question.

Sir, I have no idea of what a magical item may cost but there are a few quality alchemical shops on th post and perhaps a magic shop but in truth to find the best bargins and selection you need to shop in the city...we are just a entry and transfer port for many exotic and wonderous items.

 

[Scott DeWar]

Espejo mutters to himself as he works things out. The problem is that its only a good deal if he intends to stick around for a while and as yet his plans are fairly fluid. Still his dad was always trying to hammer into that you needed to speculate to accumulate. So he fishes 100gp out from somewhere on his person and says "Right. where do I sign? here's 50gp deposit and 25gp to change to silver pennies. I make that 500 pennies deposit, 38 pennies commission and 212 pennies cash."

Logan is too busy counting to notice much.

"Here. This should be more then enough. I will take interest. Can you point me toward an alchemist shop of repute and exchange enough money for 1 healing potion?"

He deposits 200gp. He exchanges 18gp 7sp and 1cp. If possible, exchange additional money for healing potion if he has enough money.

Gesturing to Espejo and Logan, 'big O' asks the teller," do these gentlemen get a marker of their deposite? I see others seem to be getting some sort of proof."

Mowgl
[sblock]It is one for one minus the 5% so 143 gold on deposit or 1480 city pennies and you have 450 city pennies to carry.[/sblock]

Addressing the question the young man says "You will have your passbook sir, showing the amount on deposit but is you wish we can issue you a currency card as well that you can use in most establishments to purchase items here in the valley.
