The Lamentation of Lolth - Chapter III

[Dhes]

Dunstand sits at the bar of the apple cart in reciting the epic adventure of when he personally made his way trough a dwarves mine and appropriated his most priced forge hammer, when he notices that the patrons that where hanging on his every word and buying his every beer, where more interested in the group of adventures that was gathered at one of the inn’s tables.

Ahh, a new set of faces and maybe a chance to acquire some more comfort before I set out on the road.

He makes his unheard excuses and goose over to the adventurers table.

At the table he sweeps his cloak and make his best leg at the ladies pressed

Ladies and Gentlemen may I introduce my self, I’m Dunstand Tybalt honest trader and adventurer, at your serves.

ooc: the 1st encounter, plz be genteel

 

[Seonaid]

Chastity shrugs at Andreas. "I will go if you wish me to."

When Dunstand comes over, she appraises him visually. "Well met, sir. I am Chastity, paladin of Torm." She smiles in welcome. "What brings you to our table?"

 

[Dhes]

Dunstand winces mentally, “ah dam just my luck a paladin.”

Well uu wel uu noble paladin, I came over to see if I could be of any serves to you and your party, at a very reasonable price.

Fidgeting with one of his many necklaces he offers up a small prayer, “Good Tymora grant me luck.”

 

[Seonaid]

Chastity looks from the newcomer to the others, uncertain how to react.

 

[kirinke]

Teleri smiles, slightly amused as the new-comer's face fell temporarily when Chasity mentioned her occupation. "Well met sirrah Tybalt. I am Teleri Shadow Song a priestess of Sehanine Moonbow." her eyebrow quirked. "How may you be of service to us?" she asked politely

 

[Jarval]

"If you don't mind coming along, I'd be glad of the company." Andreas replies to Chastity with a smile. "Besides which, I think your word perhaps carries more weight than mine." He looks up as the stranger approaches the table.

"Ah, I think you might have got the wrong end of the stick." Andreas says to Dunstand. "We're not in this for the money... well, that's not entirely true, I'm in it partially for the money... but I don't think we're hiring any mercenaries."

 

[Verbatim]

As Andreas' plan seemed to be more accepted by the others, Ayden hoped the others would not mind if he opted to stay within Orchard Meadows. It wasn't that he was trying to be anti-social, but many things had been happening at once, and he felt spending some time in prayer and meditation would be a good thing.

"I will go with you to speak to Sheriff Trond before heading over to speak with Father Ernest, but I think I will pass on returning to Dagger Falls for the moment. A day of rest will be a nice change, as well as allowing me to commune with Finder for a day."

As the stranger approached the table and offered his services to them for a price, Ayden wondered if the townsfolk had began inflating the success of the past two days.

"Andreas speaks the truth sir, while we have collected a few coins over the past two days, our actions have not been guided by our pursestrings."

 

[Dhes]

“Ahh well to my services, I’m a I’m a skilled Rogue, no door is left unopened to me!”

Dunstand signals the inns wench to get another round of what ever the group of adventurers is having.

“How do I get my self in to these things?

“Don’t think of me as a mercenary, but more of a guide to the unexplored. And as to my fee, I only request a small percentage of all found riches and the benefit of have group of adventurers to watch my back. Maybe, there is a chance that you could give me part of my fee upfront, in the form of a nice weapons upgrade?”

Maybe this can turn out for the good, just get a new Rapier or a set of daggers, and I can be on my way, long before they even know that I’m gone.

“May I ask what your next endeavor will be?”

 

[Velmont]

Sielwoodan just appear at that moment.

"A guide? And what do you know about guiding. You doesn't look like someone who could find his way in the wilderness. How you talk, it looks like more a cat burglur than a guide."

Sielwoodan catch the barmaid who was passing.

"Please, bring me some ale, and be sure Felmir have some water... yeah, my mule in the stable. Thanks."

Turning back to the conversation.

"Your skill may come handy at some moment, but don't pretend what you are not."

 

[Jarval]

"Now, to be fair Sielwoodan, there is more than one sort of guide." Andreas says. "While you are at home in the wilderness, I doubt you have quite the same level of expertise when it comes to more urban environments. We each have our own speciality, and who's to say that this gentleman couldn't add something to our group?

"However, I'd hold off on asking for advance payment." He grins at Dunstand. "We'd like to know what you can do before we start parting with our swords."
