Whirtlestaff's Wizards' Academy Revisited, IC01

[Scotley]

Tylara

Having drunk and danced to excess the night before, Tylara has been unusually quiet this morning, though she rouses herself to mumble something 'letting sleeping dragons lie' as the discussion turns to the innkeep's problem in the basement. Breakfast and some strong tea seems to have eased her aching head and she eager joins the group in going to Lord Kyle's Manor.

Lord Kyle's Manor

The Wizards make their way the short distance to Lord Kyle's manor, Tlara leading the way with her purposeful, determined stride, and Manny bringing up the rear astride his faithful steed, Kasi. Max, Kerlan, Xavier, and Capizzio in between.

Upon reaching Lord Kyle's place, Tylara immediately pulls the cord to ring the bell, and soon, a little window in the heavy oaken door opens to reveal an aged human face. "Ye-essssss? May I help you?" says the fossilized servant.

 

[KerlanRayne]

"Ye-essssss? May I help you?" says the fossilized servant.

Yes. We would like to speak to Lord Kyle about the hobgoblins occupying his nearby keep. We wish to help."

Lord Kyle's Manor

"Very well, I'll see if he is available. One moment, please." The servant disappears into the house, and then decides that he has made a mistake, so he returns and shows you into an ante-chamber where you can sit comfortably while you wait.

"Well, that's interesting, I wonder what that was about? I hope we aren't waiting long, I'm anxious to see what these hobgoblins are all about. You know I've never actually seen any of the goblin race alive, I once saw a gobilin corpse in the necromancy classes, but to see them alive... that'll be a sight, just like the ogres." Xavier says as he peruses his spellbook and rests comfortably on one of the chairs.

 

[Leif]

OOC: Think perhaps Xavier is maybe a little too curious for his own continued good health?

Next substantive story post coming tonight.

 

[Scott DeWar]

ooc; can capizzio make some sort of knowledge check to see what he knows about hobgoblins, such as their military discipline and intolerance for elves?

 

[Leif]

Yes, absolutely! Give me Knowledge (nature) and Knowledge (dungeoneering) and any others that you think are applicable. In fact, why doesn't everybody who wants to do so make these checks. I'll probably have to cut off waiting for the checks tonight or tomorrow, though, in the interest of getting moving. Also, tell me what you are looking for in particular with each check that you make.

Manny

Apparantly, Manny don't know nuthin' 'bout no Hobgoblins!

[sblock=Leif]KS Rolls 8 and 9. Can I whine now, puh-leeez?[/sblock]

 

[Leif]

[sblock=Mowgli]Manny is herbey granted the spell-like ability: Whine, which is usable at will. [/sblock]
[sblock=Mowgli]But I reserve the right to poke merciless fun at Manny in regard to said Whining.[/sblock]
