The Retrievers - Chapter 2

Reinn Aasimar Warmage 1

Rienn studies the odd collection of people in front of him as most of them asked him questions, the fact that they were pointing weapons at him didn't make him to happy but then again if the situation was reversed he would do the same thing. This cave certainly is busy concidering the fact that its in the middle of nowhere, probably one of the gods having fun with us mere mortals again.

Once the questions have finished he brushes himself off and leans back against the cave wall trying to be as nonchalant (don't know if the roll is need but there it is) as possible.

"I'm Reinn, I don't suppose you have found a horse wondering around here, I've seemed to have misplaced mine"

"We found a horse; or rather it found us. How might the two of you have come to be seperated and what lies down yonder hole?"

Some sort of dog creatures jumped me while I was in this cave waiting out the storm, they dragged me into the openning but they underestimated me and I have destroyed them. There are more of them but how many and where I don't really know.

Now that I have answered your question answer one of mine, what are you all doing out here?
 

Mindal Human Scout

With a wry smile Mindal says, "Didn't I say? We find lost horses and collect the reward." His grin lets the stranger know he isn't serious. More somberly he adds, "We have a friend who lost her father up here we've come to recover the body."
 

Durnn, Earth Genasi Fighter 1

After Mindal's response, Durnn chimes in. "Wait a minute. That's not such a bad idea." He turns to the stranger, Rienn. "Yeah, that is what we do. Find horses for a reward. So how about it?" he says, holding his hand out towards the aasimar. He looks at the rest of the party glaring at him. "What? You know, back in the Waterdeep Guard, we sure knew how to take a bribe or two... some day I'll have to teach you all the finer points of doing business."
 

Rienn glances over to where the Genasi is standing and rolls his eyes slightly, not even diginifing to answer him.

"Five to retrieve a body? I didn't realise that this part of the world was that dangerous."
 

Mindal Human Scout

"Given how we found you and your horse seperated out here in this weather you might consider revising your attitude about the dangers around these parts."

"True enough, but I did escape though," he replies with a slight smile, "although it was not my intention to cast doubt on your groups fighting ablities rather on my apparent lack of knowledge on how dangerous this area can be."

With a small pause he relaxes his body stance slightly. "They say the gods work in strange ways, perhaps this is thier way of giving us both a message. I could join your party, I ventured out here to seek adventure, perhaps I have bitten off more then I can chew coming out here alone. I know how to weild the morningstar quite well and I am versed in casting of some spells. All I ask is a portion of what ever spoils we find from now on."
 

Mindal Human Scout

Mindal glances at Kor. What's one more? I don't think the boss even knows how many of us there are. He turns to his companions and gives an exagerated shurg.
 

"Sounds reasonable to me; of course we may not find that much and your share does not include any stake in anything we have been specifically employed to recover," he holds out a hand, "I am Pemberton Dram, artiste extraordinarie welcome to the Retrievers. How many of these dog things do you reckon there are, because we will have to deal with them if we are to sleep here."
