The Sharn Inquisitive Episode 1: The harder they fall

[DEFCON 1]

"Well sir, I'm Darrin Mahshin, community president, and I think that if you want that story to fly you're going to have to show me some ID, or proof of occupation before I let you snoop around this complex."

"Some ID you say? Of course, my good man! Here... let me get my papers." He reaches into his pocket, pulls out his ID and opens it up, holding it out for the man to look at. "Here we are! And here is my House Tharashk medallion of membership..." he pulls out the necklace that hangs around his neck and shows it to the man. "And of course here on my arm..." he pulls up the sleeve of his shirt and shows off the bicep of his right arm "is my dragonmark as well. Impressive, isn't it? So as you can see, I have all the credentials necessary to conduct an investigation of this type, and that is exactly what I am doing. The others of my firm are out front questioning the owner of this balcony I'm looking at as we speak... as a murder was committed a short while ago, and we believe the persons connected with this address are a part of this investigation. So if you don't mind, my good man, I really must get back to keeping an eye on this balcony in case someone tries to make a break for it. Cheerio!"

[sblock=Pohl]"A murder?! This wouldn't have anything to do with all the ruckus I heard earlier today would it?" Darrin asks nervously.[/sblock]

A murder?! This wouldn't have anything to do with all the ruckus I heard earlier today would it?"

"Can you describe the ruckus, sir?"

 

[stonegod]

[sblock=OOC]I'll be out w/ spotty net access until the 28th. Might be able to check once a day, but probably no more.[/sblock]

 

[mcnathan80]

"Can you describe the ruckus, sir?"

[sblock=Pohl]"Yeah, sure. ABoult half an hour ago I heard a commotion going on a few doors down from me, I think maybe apartment 216, or 217. Any way sounded like someone was fighting or something, you know stuff breaking, sounded like someone knocked something big over... but no shouting or abything like that, I was gonna go over and see if everything was all right, but I have a term paper due, and was waiting until I got to a good stopping point before I went to see what was going on. So there was a murder you say? Who was it? Do you think anyone here is responsible?"[/sblock]

[Sblock=Anders]No prob, we've all been there, if anything important happens that your skills will prove useful, I'll you a day or so to post, then I'll just go ahead and NPC you for that situation.[/sblock]

"Wait a tick, wait a tick... let me write all this down." Pohl takes out a pen and parchment and scribbles all the information the community president spills to him. Once finished, he rereads it to himself again and then looks up at the man. "Indeed. A murder. Someone flung from the heights to the streets of Lower Menthis below. Can't say who it was until we speak with the people in the apartments... get an idea of who might be missing. But I thank you for your information and your concern. I'll alert the city watch to your bravery in answering questions that might bring a murderer to justice." He smiles and salutes the man with his pen, then returns his eyes to the balcony of 216.

[sblock=Pohl]Darrin visibly puffs up at your comments "Well, you know I'm just looking out for the tennents of the complex. Just doing my job and all. Well just let me know if there's anything else you may need." He says before stepping back inside.[/sblock]

[sblock=Everyone]Hey guys, I know Pohl's been talking alot, but ya'll can carry on the investigation Seriously though, is everyone still alive out there?[/sblock]

 

[stonegod]

Anders looks in the windows while he companions figure out their next move. Perhaps something interest is to be seen.

[sblock=Anders]The curtsain is drawn shut making the room difficult to see in.... However, what you can see is an overturned table, and some papers scattered on the floor.[/sblock]

Zenthil looks at the crew and begins to hrumph.

"Damn me for neither being born a half-orc basher nor the son of a locksmith. Anyone want to take a crack at this door?"

[sblock=ooc]Sorry for the delay. I can't believe something as simple as a locked door is keeping us from going forward!

Is it my imagination or did some of the posts disappear? A week or so ago we were on our third page and now we're back on the second page. Strange...strange![/sblock]
