The road to Vrux.

[RillianPA]

[ooc I'm gonna assume you meant that Morrison cannot identify what the dwarf is working on]

"Jonah, can you tell what he's assembling?" Morrison asks in a quiet voice. No matter what Jonah answers, Morrison will stand up and begin a slow, meandering journey around the restaurant, that ends up at the table of the dwarves, but takes him out of their immediate eyesight.

[ooc He will be watching to see if he can tell what they are putting together, and may rush towards the table if he sees anything really bad.]

Brancista Rogue/Illusionist

Brancista continues eating his calamar. “This is a great choice of eating establishments, Frolm. Once again, my thanks”, Brancista remarks as he takes in the ambiance of the restaurant. “The clientele here seem so undisturbed by the troubles of the real world”, he continues, as he looks around the restaurant.

[OOC: Brancista, noticing that Karl keeps looking toward the dwarves will use this opportunity to see what the dwarves are doing. I have detailed three different actions depending on what he can see.]

Potential Action #1

[OOC: If he can see that the dwarves are constructing something, and the item represents a threat (like a weapon, etc.).]

Brancista puts his hands behind his head, signaling the beggar, and pushes back hard on his chair, tipping it over. Tumbling with the chair, Brancista somersaults backwards, drawing some multi-colored sands from his component belt. He yells, “Assassins on the second level. They are targeting you, Frolm.”

[OOC: Tumble +7, AC 17 (with Mage Armor), Initiative +7]

Potential Action #2

[OOC: If he can see that the dwarves are constructing something, but cannot tell what it is, or the item does not represent a threat.]

Taking another small bite of the calamar, Brancista says, “Dwarves are always so industrious. Well right now, two of them are building something in the restaurant”. Pointing at the dwarves, he looks at Karl and slyly smiles saying, “Well big elf, what do you think those dwarves are doing?”

Potential Action #3

[OOC: If Brancista cannot see what the dwarves are up to.]

Brancista continues eating his calamar, becoming increasingly weary of Karl’s continued looks toward the dwarves. He subtly tries to move his chair to obtain a better vantage point, so he can see what specifically the dwarves are doing.

OCC Potential Action 2
Karl answers Brancista remark in a rather clumsy way "Dwarf ??? where do you see dwarf, I hate dwarf He then nervously stand up and looks at the dwarf making a big signs with mouths and eyes and sits back. He then adds nervously I don't see any dwarves in the restaurant

Frolm looks at Karl and Brancista, visibly concerned. "I don't like to be disturb while I eat. Now that does it" He throws his towel on the table stand up, grab the two halfling women by their waist and turn around. As he walks away he add "Karl, you know what you have to do. He turns towards one of the lady and adds Idiots, I am surrounded by idiots

Johan can't identify the object they are working on. Seeing Morisson leave the table he says "Morisson, be careful, try not to get involved in those kind of things. Johan take a bit out of his plate keeping his eyes on the dwarves and Morisson. Morisson walks among the crowd without being noticed. He climbs the stairs. He approaches the table. He struggle a bit to go through the tables and the waiters walking. He finally position himself such that he can identify the object in their hand. The dwarf below the table is handling
spoiler Morrison

Spoiler

a highly specialised crossbow with a device mounted on top of it. The one above the table seems to be indicating to the other to either fire or hold his fire Morrison can't really tell

OOC Sorry I usually have to write everything very quickly and I make mistake. On the other hand I want to keep this thing rolling.

 

[RillianPA]

Very careful to not look beneath the table, or make eye contact with either dwarf, Morrison walks past the dwarves' table and "accidentally" trips one of the waiters into the dwarves' table, hopefully knocking the table to the side.

"By the hairy feet of Fharlanghn, that must hurt. Oh gods!" and various other exclamations punctuate Morrison's attempt to help the waiter stand up, while he casually reveals the dwarves activities to everyone nearby.

[ooc Morrison is doing his level best to expose the dwarves, but not appear to be doing it on purpose]

 

[spinmd]

Brancista Rogue/Illusionist

Brancista steps up from the table, effortlessly drawing some multicolored sand from his component belt. Looking intently at Karl he says, “Well Karl, what is it you have to do”?

[OOC: Ready and action to cast color spray on Karl if he make a hostile move towards me. If needed, Initiative +7]

 

[DarkMaster]

Morrison, trips the waiters and he falls on the table. The massive wood table fall on it's side. The action reveals a dwarf with a crossbow ready to shoot an arrow downstairs. All the customers around the table starts screaming. The customers are panicking and are trying to leave the building. The waiter is lying on the ground not far away from the dwarf that was standing up. The one on the ground stand up and tries to hide the crossbow. Morrison approaches the waiter to excuse himself and notices that the dwarf swiftly pick a dagger from his one of his suit sleeve.


Karl answers brancista's question with a smile. before you can do anything else Brancista hears people panicking upstairs.

Brancista Rogue/Illusionist

Brancista keeps his eyes squarely on Karl, ready to weave magic together and disable Karl if necessary. “Judging by the commotion upstairs, I’d say that whatever you asked of the dwarves, hasn’t worked out the way you planned”, Brancista calmly says. “Why don’t you dispel whatever hostilities you have growing in that oversized head of yours and let us both leave the restaurant unharmed and able to taste the wind for another day”, he suggests to Karl.

 

[RillianPA]

Morrison will continue to help the waiter, and then look around as if confused as to why all the nearby people are panicing, while moving away from the dwarves. At the same time, he will be ready to respond if either dwarf decides to attack.

Assuming that Morrison is able, he will make his way back to the table with Jonah, and sit down.

 

[DarkMaster]

Karl, taking advantage of the commotion in the restaurant draw his short sword trying to keep it hidden as much as possible. "I never liked you, tonight your gone"

The standing dwarf didn't notice Morrison approaching. He looks calmly at the waiters and cut his throat with the knife. He then raises his eyes, noticing Morrison, and like nothing happened he adds "This men was an incompetent idiot, what are you looking at filthy human, you also want a taste of my blade.

The other dwarf quickly reposition himself. He kneels in front of the ramp and put the front of his crossbow on it to improve the stability of his hand. He is aiming at someone downstairs

Brancista Rogue/Illusionist

Brancista discreetly moves his hand in a quick circle, quietly utters a short arcane phrase, and hurls the multi-colored sand towards Karl.

[OOC: Brancista casts color spray at Karl (DC 14 Will save, 15ft. cone shaped burst). If Karl can take an AoO, Brancista will take a 5 ft. step back to avoid the AoO. Brancista will aim the color spray to only hit Karl, avoiding any other nearby restaurant patrons. Hopefully, Karl’s drawing of his shortsword triggers Brancista’s readied action. If not, critical combat elements you require: Initiative +7, AC 17 (Dexterity, Mage Armor).]
