Message: <blockquote data-quote="Telsar" data-source="post: 1576815" data-attributes="member: 18837">Madame Brie smiles at T'aria, a big smile with a couple teeth missing, apparently pleased at the show of respect.Then she studies Sunedilar for a moment.  At first, by his appearance, there wasn't much to be impressed with, but she may have misjudged.  "I have quite a few enemies.  That punk Hectaras, young human, thinks he can start a thieves' guild.  This city hasn't had an organized thieves guild for 20 years.  Guilds are formed for protection, and most criminals here have no problem getting around the laughable city guard.  He says when he gets set up, I'll be working for him!  That brat isn't fit to wipe my ass.""But he doesn't have much money, and no magic that I know of.  If it's him, he's got a new partner.  The only problem I've had with anyone with magical ability was a priest of Heironeous.  He used to come around here, spewing his arrogant condemnation, saying he was going to shut us down.  All his ranting did was tell more people about the place.  My business increased by half after that.  Haven't seen him in a year, though.""And of course, there's been others who have tried to set up their own brothels... they're all very dead now.  But if someone else is trying, I'll hear word of where he's setting up eventually.  But I don't think I can wait that long with girls disappearing.""Oh.  And as for special skills imparted to the girls... that's a trade secret."  Sunedilar receives a smile as well.While everyone is making plans and ironing out details, Accalon spends an enjoyable hour with the two young whores, after paying them of course, who apparently do know a skill or two.  What they don't know is that Accalon is paying them in more than coins; spreading Asteral's Doom, a horrible but slowly incubating disease. [Loni rolls 20 and resists the first attempt, but both fail their saves thereafter].  Jovana seems detatched once she has her money, but, during a quiet moment, Loni asks Accalon "Are you going to help Madame Brie?  She's a lot more upset about about this then she lets on.  I think she's afraid of whoever's doing the kidnapping, and this is the first I've seen her afraid of anyone".  Jovana gives Loni a pinch, making it clear she doesn't think Brie would like having her talk behind her back.</blockquote>
