[QUOTE="dscrank, post: 118923, member: 3017"] [b]Pedron gets to work[/b] Pedron grumbles a bit at the joyful reunion. That makes another two people he has to slip away from. Still, with this crowd, he ought to be able to manage it. Pedron begins to move further away from the others, until he's certain they can no longer see him. The pickpockets will be out in full force, so Pedron keeps a sharp eye out lest one of his fellows tries to steal from him. Meanwhile, he scans the crowd for a likely mark. If he sees some careless merchant who wears his purse too openly, he'll move close and wait for the false Dragon to come into sight. Then, when all eyes turn to the spectacle, he'll relieve the merchant of his coin and move on. If he's spotted, he'll try to disappear into the crowd, moving as close to a normal pace as he can so as not to look suspicious. If he succeeds with his first mark, he may select another, once he's at least fifty paces away, but only if the procession is taking its sweet time. He has no intention of stealing from more than two people. No need to press his luck. [OOC: What do you expect? Pedron's a thief, and he hasn't had a chance to steal anything in the last two days: he's getting antsy.] [/QUOTE]
