Tesarik One: Mistakes?
RageofNocturne: good here)
a stray howl: [ Good ]
SwordOfAtrophy: (golden)
Tesarik One: Maria has been sent a missive by a very minor Sarkotan Lord
named Erront Sevonius, and he has requested that she send a group of her
adventurers to meet with him and tell no one what they were doing. He has
offered a decent payment,
Tesarik One: but offers nothing about what he's hiring them to do, only to
come to his manor near Willowby and meet with him and he will let them know
when they arrive what it is he needs of them. He also informs them that no
one in his home
Tesarik One: knows he is asking them either, and to not tell even those in
his own home he has sent for them. Odd. Maria knows very little about this
man, has heard his name in passing, but has decided it's worth checking out -
maybe.
Tesarik One: Since it isn't all that far from Navahla, North of Knifedge,
she has procured horses from the stables for all to ride.
Tesarik One: The horses are saddled and ready, and you have all been given
directions to Lord Sevonius' manor outside of Willowby.
SwordOfAtrophy: The man called Gjenrei felt compelled for two reasons. One,
his boss was suitably intrigued, so that meant he would go when asked. Two,
anyone that shady was likely to be asking something either embarassing,
meaning he was in
OnlineHost: bottledpanacea has entered the room.
psionic wanderer: Akaash normally wouldn't bother with a regular ol' mission
for the OH, but well..at the same time, this was a noble, and nobles had
collections. Sometimes those collections had something one of his other
clients needed, or might one
Tesarik One: "A horse? That is so...antiquated...it doesn't even have
wheels." She was pulling herself upon the horse, she knew how to ride and how
to ride well almost from birth it seemed but she did much prefer all the
gears and wheels and new
OnlineHost: bottledpanacea has left the room.
psionic wanderer: day need, so he decided to accompany the group and
consider it research. An investment for the future! He had a list of things
he'd committed to memory so he wouldn't have to carry the damn thing with
him. He seemed distracted as he
psionic wanderer: made his way to his horse and climbed on, his breeze a bit
more chaotic than it normally was, making his cloak go all a-flutter.
OnlineHost: bottledpanacea has entered the room.
SwordOfAtrophy: trouble, or he was some kind of criminal element himself,
and that could be discovered. Either way, he geared up to go. Horses he was
used to, so he was getting all familiar with the animal for a bit, before
sliding into the saddle.
Tesarik One: fangled things that were being created. She looked over the
map, then tucked it away. She had been to Willowby on occasion, and waited
for the others.
SwordOfAtrophy: "I'm sure we could add some wheels with enough innovation."
Tesarik One: State to add.
RageofNocturne: :: A horse....he kind of questioned if the thing could hold
his massive frame and would tentatively climb onto it which was a sight to
see to say the least. A massive polar bear sitting on a horse. -D-
Tesarik One: Heavy horse for the bear.
RageofNocturne: yay!)

said she was going to go, might as well keep her word. She however did not

old fashioned way to Willowby, to meet with one Lord Sevonius who wants them
to do something but won't say what until they come see him.

bag, she shifted into a snowy white owl that flew to sit on a rooftop nearby.
Waiting for Cyrus to get on and see that everyone was ready before taking off

Tesarik One: Dan is still having issues.

RageofNocturne: alrighty just let me know and i can darken it more if
needed)
Tesarik One: Ok - So you all mount up, and ride for several hours to
Willowby along the Willow Reed River north of Navahla. You've stopped for
lunch on the way, and it is now early afternoon. The manor comes into view in
the distance down the
Tesarik One: road, and it isn't the biggest or fanciest manor in Sarkotos,
but it's well-built and large enough. It has a good bit of land around it,
pastures for horses and even some fields behind it. The house itself is
surrounded by a large
Tesarik One: fence, and the metal gates are closed (locked) as you arrive at
them. You can see six men in the outer courtyard through the gate lounging
around on crates in the open courtyard. Some remains of lunch - some bread
and mutton - are
Tesarik One: lying on a barrel, and a few of them are actively involved in a
game of dice, where no one seems to be the winner yet.
Tesarik One: One of them sits under the shade with a lute across his lap,
quietly playing music for those in the courtyard.
psionic wanderer: He hopped off of his horse as they got close to the manor,
and darted ahead to case the j..er...scout the place out and make sure it
wasn't going to be dangerous! Yes, that one.
a stray howl: Leaving her bag with the Cyrus who may or may not be there,
Qivara shapeshfited back into an owl so that she could fly up and see if
there was another way in or something since they couldn't tell the men they
were there for the
SwordOfAtrophy: Taking a moment to find a place to secure the horse with
grazing space, because that was proper. He crossed the courtyard towards the
lounging men. "Gentlemen, I believe we have an appointment with lord
Sevonius. Would you kindly
a stray howl: noble at his own request and they might not let them in.
SwordOfAtrophy: direct us to him?" Because he felt like a goober standing
outside the gate (because I can't read).
psionic wanderer: Did someone just....march right through the locked gate to
have a chat? Ha!
SwordOfAtrophy: I said I can't read.
RageofNocturne: :: As they arrived he would dismount the horse he had been
on for the rise and would move over to secure the horse aswell in an area it
could graze and get some shade aswell. He would look around and activate his
ring of the armsman
psionic wanderer: Well at least if someone was running distraction, he could
climb over the gate and sneak into the manor or something.
a stray howl: [ spot ? ]
Tesarik One: Well they were all pretty much facing the gate, so climbing
over it would be difficult without being seen. Is Gjenrei talking to them
through the gate then?
SwordOfAtrophy: Yes.
psionic wanderer: Well that's why he'd wander off and get around to the
back, of course.
psionic wanderer: Of course he'd have to wait and see what happened first.
Tesarik One: Lore was off the horse and moving up to the gate as well, after
tying off her horse. She stood by Gjenrei and smiled prettily, trying to
concoct a lie to get them to let them in.
RageofNocturne: to form his armor and gear picking up his hammers to put
them on his back and the smaller third on his hip. The big ursa would then
look to the gates and would look past them and at the ones inside and would
sniff the air and stand
RageofNocturne: back from the gate since he often knew people didnt see a
big armored bear at the gates as something to welcome right on in.-D-
Tesarik One: One of the men stood up and headed towards the gate, standing
about three feet from the metal gate and stared at them for a good long time.
All those he could see. He spit out a piece of straw he'd been chewing on,
"Lord's got no
Tesarik One: appointments today sir, you must be mistaken. I am pretty sure
he'd have let us know," the other guards chuckled hearing him.
SwordOfAtrophy: "How about you go ask him, then."
Tesarik One: "Ahh, he's not even seeing us, you see. He's said no one is to
bother him, and that's our job you know, to do what he says for our pay." One
of the guards playing dice said to his buddies, "With that paycut he
Tesarik One: gave us recently, we should just leave him in there alone and
head to Willowby."
psionic wanderer: His breeze got a bit more agitated, then started to move
around the outside of the fence, as if he was going to head around the
building. As he moved, he reached into his cloak and produced his li'l
leaf-tailed mouse, holding it in
a stray howl: Qivara moved to perch up on the fence still in owl form to
watch the men as Gjenrei continued to chat with the group. Her head
swiveling from side to side a moment.
psionic wanderer: his left hand and stroking along his li'l head and back
with the other.
Tesarik One: "He sent us a letter, you see, with a map. See?" She pulled the
map out and surely it was the map to this house! "I met him once, when he
came to one of the royal balls in Navahla. He told me anytime I was passing
through Willowby,
SwordOfAtrophy: "I wouldn't blame you if you did." He put an arm around
Lore, using her pretty face to keep the mens attention focused this way. He
had more to say, but then she started. Whatever got their attention focused
away from the wandering
SwordOfAtrophy: man.
Tesarik One: that I most certainly should stop by and see him." She smiled
prettily, talking like a well-bred Sarkotan noble in her tone and speech. "I
do believe he would just hate it if he found out that after all these months
the Lady Rossi
OnlineHost: psionic wanderer has left the room.
Tesarik One: came to see him and his own guards didn't let me in. These are
simply my guards and travel companions. A Rossi lady does not leave home
alone, you know." She fluttered her lashes, it was a half-truth. Her
grandfather was
Tesarik One: fairly well known, but perhaps not to simple guards. (Bluff)

OnlineHost: psionic wanderer has entered the room.
Tesarik One: (CHA 3, Charlatan 5) = +8 = 13
OnlineHost: Tesarik One rolled 1 20-sided die: 16
Tesarik One: They weren't really buying it.
Tesarik One: "Yer not dressed like no fancy lady who goes to balls at the
royal palace."
SwordOfAtrophy: "Would you trapse around the countryside in your fanciest
with bandits about?" He motioned to her face. "When's the last time you saw a
lass this beautiful?"
Tesarik One: The brick fence allowed for movement without the guards seeing
it. There was a back entrance. It was a small wooden gate. It was unlocked,
and an elderly lady was hanging out wash.
psionic wanderer: Well then. He got to the back entrance! He crouched down
and set the mouse on the ground, then moved over to the wooden gate to see if
it was locked. Since it wasn't, he opened it up just enough to get an idea on
what was on the
Tesarik One: Lorelei beamed, and reached up to rub at her cheek to make sure
she didn't have grease or oil or something on her. She fluffed her hair and
gave a little swing side to side. "I don't want to be kidnapped!"
psionic wanderer: other side. Hopefully the lady wasn't looking right at the
gate.
Tesarik One: Nope, she was humming to herself and hanging up laundry.
Tesarik One: The door into the kitchen was open and a lazy black cat lounged
on the stoop.
Tesarik One: Gjenrei if you wanna roll a Diplomacy or Bluff go for it.
psionic wanderer: Well then. He did spot the cat, however, so he crouched
down and picked up the leaf-tail mouse and pocketed it once more, then,
keeping attention split between the lady hanging the wash and the kitchen, he
attempted to just..sneak
psionic wanderer: right past the lady and into the building.
SwordOfAtrophy: (Diplomacy)
Tesarik One: "Yeah well I never seen a lady with rings in her face. I seen
whores with rings though." Laugh laugh.
Tesarik One: Ok
RageofNocturne: :: Well the two were making a convincing story to get them
through the front without incident. He sure as hell believed it but who cared
what he thought. He was a bear! So he remained more on the quiet side. As
they spoke though he
Tesarik One: "It's the new fashion, don't you know?" She bit her little
piercing on her bottom lip and then grinned.
SwordOfAtrophy: "C'mon fellas. She can't be noble and a rebellious little
girl? Who doesn't want a lady at the ball and a wildcat in bed?" He was
trying to appeal to their guy sense.
OnlineHost: SwordOfAtrophy rolled 1 20-sided die: 16
RageofNocturne: would step off to check his horse wouldnt get loose before
stepping over to the front gate with the others-D-
SwordOfAtrophy: (3 Chr, 5 Gallant, 1 rep) =25
Tesarik One: She gave a lil growl and clawed at them playfully.
OnlineHost: Tesarik One rolled 1 20-sided die: 19
Tesarik One: Akaash roll a Stealth.

psionic wanderer: (+12 quickness, +5 stealth skill, +5 armored ink move
silent enchant = 39)
Tesarik One: Well, Gjenrei's story got the attention of just about all of
them, the bard was still strumming along though lost in his own little world.
"Eh. He ain't paying us enough anymore to fuss. If you say she's a lady come
to see him, then
Tesarik One: she's a lady come to see him." He tugged out a key and unlocked
the gate and opened it, stepping aside. "Can't help you with Kendal though,
little weasel. He's the house steward." The men were leering at Lorelei, and
would continue
Tesarik One: to do that when she walked into the courtyard. They had enough
couth to not whistle or cat call though.
a stray howl: Well this had certainly turned into a show! The moonfey did
her best to not laugh but she was wondering where their other companion had
gone off to. Hopefully he wouldn't run into trouble as they made it through.
Hopping down from
Tesarik One: Oh wait, there was always one wasn't there? She'd get a whistle
as she walked in from one of them.
Tesarik One: The cat did not even lift her black head, nor did the laundry
lady stop her humming as Akaash easily stealthed into the kitchen of the
manor.
psionic wanderer: Once inside, he figured the master of the house was most
likely either a study of some sort, or a master bedroom. So those would be
the areas he'd head towards first to see if he could find the fella!
a stray howl: her perch, she transformed from owl to half naked woman so
that she could grab her bag from the horse and then move to follow the
others. Not seeming to care as she worked to step barefoot back into the
leather and pull it up to
SwordOfAtrophy: "Thank you, sirs." He made like the gallant protector to
offer Lore his arm as they proceeded inside. At the whistle, he said. "Come
now, sir. Give the lady a better compliment than that."
Tesarik One: "Just give a knock at the door."
RageofNocturne: :: As the gate was unlocked he would lift a furry arm and
would rub it on his nose or a moment as something tickled it before he turned
his head and would sneeze off to the side then would shake his head and enter
after the others d
a stray howl: cover herself. Her ice blue cat eyes looking at the whistle
and giving him a little bit of a growl that made the lower half of her face
turn into a wolf's. "Behave."
Tesarik One: He said something low to his companion, something dirty, and
they all laughed.
RageofNocturne: id looking down to each of the men since well...he wasnt
short by comparison. -D-
Tesarik One: Oh, half naked woman? Well shit all bets were off, they all
were catcalling and whistling now.
Tesarik One: But at the sight of the bear. It suddenly stopped.
Tesarik One: Several, "what the fuck is that?" was heard from various men.
a stray howl: She didn't care if the men called at her but the charade that
Lore was a lady would mean she could play guard. No whistling at the lady!
Their reaction to bear man was funny though.
Tesarik One: Akaash on the first floor you come to the study first, but you
see a weasly looking man heading down the wall. Wanna stealth by him or talk
to him?
psionic wanderer: Depended on how well-dressed he was.
Tesarik One: She tried so hard not to laugh and just smiled so prettily
while she walked with Gjenrei, she did have to turn and look to see what got
all the catcalls and did laugh seeing Qivara and then the bear. She turned
and gave a knock on
Tesarik One: the door.
OnlineHost: rekindled flame has left the room.
SwordOfAtrophy: They arrived at the door, as she gave it a good hard knock,
leaning over to whisper a moment to Qivara as they waited.
psionic wanderer: He glanced towards the front when the knock was heard,
however, and opted to hide either way and get past the weasly guy!
Tesarik One: Oh he is dressed in grand, even gaudy robes with dark hair and
pale skin, and rings on almost every finger. As the knock is heard, he begins
to move towards the hallway to the door though. You can still talk to him! Or
slip past!
psionic wanderer: Sneaky sneak.
Tesarik One: Roll your stealth.
OnlineHost: psionic wanderer rolled 1 20-sided die: 17
psionic wanderer: (39 again)
OnlineHost: Tesarik One rolled 1 20-sided die: 15
a stray howl: She was mostly dressed now. Still needed to find someone to
make her one of those things that would have her pants shift with her.. but
she was in no hurry. Everyone had the same bits! Hers were just chilly all
the time.
Tesarik One: You make it past, and reach the study. There is no one in
there.
a stray howl: Gjenrei's whisper made her snort a pit and he earned himself a
pat on the shoulder.
a stray howl: bit* not a pit*
RageofNocturne: :: He would look to the men once more but kept right on
moving up to the front door and would stop dropping onto all fours to make
himself a more acceptable height for being indoors and would sniff around-D-
Tesarik One: Snorted out a peach pit.
psionic wanderer: Well, nuts. At least the guy was heading towards the door,
would make it easier to get up to the other rooms. He didn't figure the lord
of the manor would answer his own door. Or be on the ground floor.
OnlineHost: bottledpanacea has left the room.
a stray howl: no idea how that got in there!
Tesarik One: There is a locked door on the second floor you come to first,
it's the library if you are able to pick the lock and get in but no one is
inside. The other rooms are bedrooms. Guest rooms by the look of them.
Tesarik One: The door would open and the small, weasly man in gaudy robes
and rings stood there staring at them with a displeased expression on his
face. It was just how his face was though. "Yes?"
SwordOfAtrophy: "Lady Rossi to see Lord Sevonius, please."
a stray howl: Lying through their teeth, Take 2.
psionic wanderer: Well..he figured it'd be easier to check the top of the
building and work his way down, so he'd bypass the second floor and move up
to the third! Master bedroom would be his first goal, and he'd likely snuck
into enough fancy places
psionic wanderer: to guess where it was.
Tesarik One: "Lady Rossi?" He looked around, past them, and back to Gjenrei.
"Where?"
Tesarik One: Lorelei's eyes narrowed just slightly but she put on a beaming
smile and gave a curtsy, "Right here, sir. You must be Mister Kendal. The
guards said just to let you know we are here to see Lord Sevonius and you'd
let us right in and
Tesarik One: take us to him." Smile.
Tesarik One: Master bedroom door was locked.
psionic wanderer: That's what lock picks were for. He produced his set and
started working at it. Pick pick pick!
Tesarik One: Roll for it then!
OnlineHost: psionic wanderer rolled 1 20-sided die: 13
a stray howl: Qivara smirked and snorted at the man. Half tempted to just
threaten the man right then for insulting Lorelei but it was their lie.
Tesarik One: Diplo for Lore
psionic wanderer: (13 + 12 quick, +5 lockpicking skill, +3 leaf tail mouse
bonus = 33)
OnlineHost: Tesarik One rolled 1 20-sided die: 16
Tesarik One: +8=24
OnlineHost: Tesarik One rolled 2 20-sided dice: 11 10
Tesarik One: Akaash you easily pick the lock.
psionic wanderer: Well then into the master bedroom he'd slip! Assuming he
didn't crack open the door and find it empty as well.
RageofNocturne: :: He would continue to sniff around and would step up
brushing against Qivara a moment as he did because...well he was big and
furry it was all hard to keep track of at times. He wouldnt speak but he
would look to Kendal possibly s
RageofNocturne: traight at him since while he was on all fours he still
stood a good 5'10-D-
Tesarik One: Kendal looks past you all to the guards, who give him a wave,
which he does not return and snorts lightly. Then he steps aside and allows
you all to enter. "Lord Sevonius does not wish to be disturbed, but if you
give me a moment I
Tesarik One: will speak to him and see if he wishes to see this.... Lady
Rossi." He stared at Lorelei down his pointy weasel nose a moment, and then
motioned them into the parlor and headed for the staircase.
SwordOfAtrophy: "Make sure you introduce her as a proper lady.." He said as
the man walked away, not threatening, but not exactly friendly either. He
moved about into the parlor, playing the part and basically glued to within
two feet of Lore.
Tesarik One: Master bedroom was not empty! There was a man sitting on a
leather chair, by a hearth, smoking a pipe and reading a book. When the door
is heard opening, he barks out, "Kendal, I told you I did not wish to be
disturbed! I thought I
Tesarik One: got rid of the spare keys to this room!" He looked up from the
book and was startled to see someone else. The book was slammed shut and he
stood up quickly, grabbing a poker from the hearth, "Who are you and what do
you want? How
Tesarik One: did you get in here!"
psionic wanderer: Well then, he slipped on in the rest of the way and closed
the door behind him quietly, hopefully before that bark carried too far. "If
you do not wish to be disturbed, why in the world would you send for help
from Maria?" He eyed
a stray howl: Qivara wavered on her feet after being bumped by a giant bear
and reached up to pat him on the arm. "Watch out big guy." After that she
gave a nod to the weasel and waited until they were alone in the parlor
before making a face.
psionic wanderer: the poker, and his breeze picked up a bit, but he
otherwise didn't react much. "I'm here on behalf of Maria. I took your
instructions a bit more literally than my associates, who last I saw were
knocking on the front door."
a stray howl: "Shouldn't we contact out other companion to let him know we
got in in case he's still wandering about.."
RageofNocturne: :: With being allowed in he would step right on in again
after the others and would go into the parlor and would look around sitting
himself down but that was after he looked to Qivara and apologized for
bumping her!-- Sorry about t
Tesarik One: "What? All she sent was you?" The poker was put down and he
sighed. He looked fairly young, in his late 30's perhaps with dark hair and
dark eyes, and worry etched on his face.
RageofNocturne: hat, already kind of big and with the fur too sometimes its
hard to judge exactly how close i am to someone-D-
Tesarik One: "Ahh associates, good to know there are more. Come, sit down,
glass of brandy? We will wait for your associates."
a stray howl: "First winter then? You really should try to get a handle on
that." She snorted at the bear a little and then did a spin on her heels as
they waited for the man. "Perhaps we should just walk around poking our
heads in doors... "
psionic wanderer: "Unfortunately, no. Hence all the noise downstairs." He
moved to have a seat, pulling the big ol' collapsible arbalest off of his
back so he could sit comfortably. "No, thank you." He opted to just..look out
the window while he
Tesarik One: "Yes, we should, wonder if he has an insignia?" She tapped her
insignia which she hid under her bodice, didn't want everyone to know all the
time she was working for Maria. "Hey handsome, we are waiting in the parlor,
where are
psionic wanderer: waited. (brb)
Tesarik One: you?" This sent through the insignia to Akaash.
psionic wanderer: Alas, he was too distracted to respond! (ha! brb for real)
Tesarik One: Knock, knock on the door. "Come in," said Sevonius, and Kendal
opened it and looked inside saying, "A.... Lady Rossi is here to see you
sir."
a stray howl: You know he could have said I found a back entrance via
insignia and then they could have attempted it!
RageofNocturne: :: Not at all. Ive had a rew. But my coordination has been
wonky since i came to these lands. Its almost like i have to get use to being
in my own body again. --he said to Qivara-- I am Ragnar Koda. You are?-D-
Tesarik One: "Lady Rossi?" He turned to look over at Akaash, but since the
player is brb, we'll say Akaash lets him know that yes these are his
associates! "Show them up, Kendal."
Tesarik One: Kendal was soon back in the parlor, "Follow me."
a stray howl: "Qivara.." There was a nod of her head to the beast in
greeting before looking up at the entrance of the man they'd been waiting on.
"And like I said. get a handle on it already. Or we may just have to shrink
you." Moving up
Tesarik One: Lorelei smiled brightly and moved to follow Kendal, giving
Gjenrei a wink. She was worried that Akaash hadn't answered her, but
hopefully he was smart enough to have not gotten himself in trouble she
thought. Up she went, with the g
SwordOfAtrophy: "Easy enough." Lore was escorted up the stairs, and he hoped
they were following behind, even the bear.
Tesarik One: group* to the bedroom on the third floor!
a stray howl: close behind Gjen and Lore up the stairs. If she had realized
so many steps were involved she might have actually just flown but then she'd
be pantsless again.
Tesarik One: "Come in come in, Kendal, please leave us alone. Go find
something to do, Kendal." He stared hard at the man, whose nostrils flared a
bit, anger in his face for just a moment, and then he headed out and shut the
door behind him.
psionic wanderer: Akaash would've just shrugged, actually. He didn't know
their names.
Tesarik One: Well that messes up everything I already did, so we will just
fudge it.
psionic wanderer: And he had already told the guy they were knocking on the
door!
Tesarik One: "Thank you for coming and forgive me for the secrecy. You did
not tell anyone you were coming, correct?"
RageofNocturne: :: Yes, sorry Qivara. --he said ashe followed them right on
up the stairs and into the room where he would move off to the side and sit
on the floor looking to the man who had hired them-D-
psionic wanderer: "Apart from everybody in the manor."
SwordOfAtrophy: "We just told them we were here, they think this was a
social visit. Outside of the people here, no."
Tesarik One: He stared at the bear a moment, frowning, but continued with a
nod to Akaash. "I have an issue in my basement. I do not want to get my
guards involved, as it will just cause issue in town and people will
overreact. Two... monsters
a stray howl: Said the one with poor communication skills who abandoned the
team! Qivara nodded when Gjenrei had spoke up and moved to prop up
somewhere on a wall out of the way of the giant uncoordinated bear.
Tesarik One: have moved in and I wish them to be destroyed. I am not sure
what they are. Big..spiked beasts. I was too afraid to get very close. They
have found a way to come and go, and need to go."
psionic wanderer: He accomplished the mission by following the directions
given! This is why you didn't send a group of adventurers to do a sneak job,
as far as he was concerned. He managed tu turn his attention back to the man
as he explained what
psionic wanderer: was going on, also just to see if it seemed like he might
be lying or hiding something from them!
a stray howl: "And no one in the house knows that there are monsters in the
bastement?"
Tesarik One: If anyone would like to roll ... you may roll a Spot. You may
also roll an Insight if you desire.

RageofNocturne: lol)
SwordOfAtrophy: He couldn't tell the man was lying, but something was up,
(and because I forgot he has discern lie -.-) he just crossed his arms and
stared, like he expected more.
Tesarik One: Ok info sent.
Tesarik One: Lorelei peered up at the painting above the hearth, and then
down to the man again, oblivious to everything and just itching to get to the
monsters!
a stray howl: Qivara pushed off the wall that she was leaning against to get
closer to the painting above the hearth and then she looked back towards the
man. "So when did you start reversing your age?"
Tesarik One: He looked taken aback and tapped his pipe on his bottom lip,
staring at Akaash a moment in thought. He began to pace, and then finally sat
back in his chair, "Fine. I thought I could pay Maria's famous adventurers to

manticores and I got
psionic wanderer: "Unlucky for you, then, that I'm less famous and not much
of an adventurer. Asking questions is what I do." He let the fella continue,
then! And listened.
Tesarik One: the pair of them as very young babes. They were fine for a
while, but they have begun to roam the fields and eat neighbor's animals and
so I am afraid that they must go."
Tesarik One: "..Reversing my age? Whatever do you mean?"
Tesarik One: Akaash you can roll another Insight.
SwordOfAtrophy: "The reason we are so good at what we do, is because we
don't just waltz into dire situations with lies and omissions leading the
way. Course, you're welcome to tell those fine fellows outside instead if you
want simple puppets."
RageofNocturne: om and look around before he looked back to the man as he
spoke about the beasts being manticores and wanting them to be dealt with--
Ahh....--was all he said on the matter because it was a shame really. He had
seen it all the time
a stray howl: Qivara pointed at the portrait above the hearth and then
pointed at him. "Same person or is that your father?" She didn't know
nobility so she made an assumption.

Tesarik One: "I do not care what you do with them, as long as they are out
of my basement and out of Willowby!"
SwordOfAtrophy: "....Do you want to give us the whole story this time?"
Tesarik One: He stared over at the painting, "That is my father."
Tesarik One: "I was named after him."
Tesarik One: He was getting frustrated and it was showing. He tossed the
pipe down onto the table and paced again, "Gods above, I've got plenty of
gold and I want these foul beasts gone! Do I have to answer every question
from every one of you
psionic wanderer: He let out a small sigh, rubbed at his eyes a bit, then
well..decided to pick up the wind a little bit around him! Sometimes it
scared people. "You've got one more chance to tell us what's truly going on
with the manticores, or I'll
psionic wanderer: walk, and advise the rest of the group to do so as well."
Tesarik One: before you do the gods damned work I've brought you here to

Just do the job."

manticores in your basement." The light from the fire reflected inside her
irises turning the cat's eyes green before she narrowed them at him. "We

a stray howl: care*
Tesarik One: "Fine. Leave. I'll find someone else!" He pointed to the door,
agitated.
psionic wanderer: He looked to the group. "He's got guards. They can take
care of them." He stood up, and headed right on out the door!
a stray howl: "There is no one else. We will tell everyone you have
manticores in your basement killing your neighbor's children.."
Tesarik One: "I sit in his chair, and smoke his pipe because I loved my
father and I deserve to sit here."
psionic wanderer: Well..he grabbed his arbalest first, of course. But then
it was out the master bedroom and down the stairs.
a stray howl: She was trying to trick him into saying something unexpected
in his agitation but so far nothing was happening. Feline eyes turned
towards Gjenrei and Lorelei.. "Honestly.. I'd still like to take out the
beasts. Their parts are
Tesarik One: He frowned, and turned to stare at the painting. He picked up
an urn on the mantel and then with quickness and ease he spun, opened it, and
poured out powder from it that filled the front half of the room.
Tesarik One: Everyone roll an Endurance!
a stray howl: good money.."
SwordOfAtrophy: He stared. "Your eyes give away every falsehood your tongue
can conjure. Who are you... really?." Steps carried him across the room until
he was uncomfortably close. Until there was ash in his face...

pass Akaash on the way out.

which they were.. but unconcious. He tried to revive Lore first. Tapping the
insignia. "He used
Tesarik One: Kendal rushes upstairs when told there is a fire.
SwordOfAtrophy: some sleep powder and escaped. Did he pass by you?"
Tesarik One: The door into the basement is double locked.
Tesarik One: An old lock, and a lock that looks much, much newer added.
a stray howl: Qivara tried to wipe the ashes from her face as it came over
and then she was out out. Several weird noises coming from her in her
slumber.
Tesarik One: Kendal rushed in, and saw the three on the ground and stared
wide-eyed at Gjenrei, then looked around again and back to Gjenrei. "Where is
..the Lord?"
psionic wanderer: Well that was exactly the sort of thing he was here for,
wasn't it? So obviously he'd start working on those locks, staring with the
older one. He figured if they wanted him to rush back they could let him know
through the insignia!
OnlineHost: psionic wanderer rolled 1 20-sided die: 20

RageofNocturne: :: Ohh wasnt that a sight to see...a big white bear in ice
armor and hammers on his back asleep. Drooling on the floor as he laid there

pushing himself along until ohh look! He had his head under the bed and fully
laid right on back down. That was nice...a nice dark place to get a good

Tesarik One: The passageway down into the basement of the manor is dark,
there are unlit torches lining a spiralling passageway about every six feet.
The deeper you go the louder the sounds get. The sound of claws on stone,
roars and movement.
Tesarik One: The putrid scent of decaying flesh, and fresh animal dung
stings your nose.
Tesarik One: Qivara and Lore, you begin to wake up.
Tesarik One: Ragnar's still in snoozeland due to flaw.
RageofNocturne: yup yup!)
psionic wanderer: Second lock opened up? That actually surprised him a wee
bit. Shoddy locks. That done, he pocketed his tools once again, then started
to sneak his way on down the stairs. He didn't bother with the torches,

what to do!

on his threat. Have the guards outside search the house, let us know if they
find him." Ok, two of them were good.. "Are you two alright?"
Tesarik One: Two juvenile manticores ripping apart a full sized dead cow.
That's what. They are each about 7 feet long, a good 800lbs each. The
cavernous area has a soaring ceiling, some of the top of the cavern has
fallen away allowing a few

the flesh from the cow. Other half eaten bodies of animals, monstrous
humanoids and humanoids little the large area, rotting.
Tesarik One: litter*
a stray howl: looking up to Gjenrei. "What happened and where is he.."
Tesarik One: Lore rolled over, and then sat up quickly and wiped at her
eyes, coughing, "The fuck happened!?" She was pushing herself up and
gathering her things again, looking around the room. The bear was asleep,
Qivara seemed to have been hit
Tesarik One: same as she was, Akaash was missing again, and there was
Gjenrei, Kendal... and no Lord. "...."
SwordOfAtrophy: "He threw some kind of powder that knocked you out, and
disappeared.. I don't know where he was." He stood up. "What I do know is our
missing compatriot is probably downstairs by now.. so we should go join him
before he gets in over
SwordOfAtrophy: his head."
Tesarik One: "He probably magicked himself out of here. Magic
tel-ee-portation or whatever it's called."
Tesarik One: Kendal made his exit, and gave the orders to the guards, and
then was gone. All gaudy robes fluttering as he hurried along the road.
a stray howl: She growled a little bit and the moment she did the poor
weasel would see her features shift a little on the animal side. She
actually wasn't a fan of quick violence but he'd attacked her obviously now
it was different. Her body
Tesarik One: The guards moved into the house and began to search, some
searched the outbuildings.
SwordOfAtrophy: To the basement then. The two girls he could carry were
walking... the bear.. well he doubted the bear would appreciate being drug
down the stairs. He'd just have to come to on his own. "Come, let's do what
we must."
psionic wanderer: He wrinkled his nose a bit when he saw that mess, then
tapped his insignia. *Well he wasn't lying about the manticores, at least.
They're certainly down here. Distracted at the moment with a cow.*
Tesarik One: Ragnar, wakey wakey.
a stray howl: moving to shift completely into wolf, she picked her pants up
into her mouth and tossed them over her bag before she began to sniff around
to see if she could pick up on the scent of the lord. [scent] "Someone grab
my pants and bag
Tesarik One: "Great, manticores."
a stray howl: please.. " Then she started to see if she could find a trail
inside the room.
RageofNocturne: :: Opening his eyes he would yawn then would stand right up
indeed making a big mess of the bed as he did so! He would then look around
the room and over to the others and he rubbed his face on his arms-D-
Tesarik One: She grabbed the bag and pants, and no, there was no scent of
the lord in the house strong. Just residual from him sleeping in his dad's
bed, wearing his dad's clothes and using his dad's belongings.
psionic wanderer: *I don't quite feel confident against them both by myself,
so you'll all understand if I wait for you, yes?*
a stray howl: She still wanted to make sure there wasn't some hole in the
wall as she moved about the room and waited for Winnie the Pooh to get off
his back.
Tesarik One: "Yes, we are coming now!" She was rushing out, since everyone
heard that, and moving down the stairs towards the basement door. She would
not open it though until the whole group was there and ready. Her haladie was
removed off her
Tesarik One: back and the two sheaths pulled off and stashed.
a stray howl: Oh.. manticores were still a thing and when she found nothing
she moved to chase after Lorelei.
psionic wanderer: He stayed where he was on the stairs so he could keep
track of the manticores and report any changes! Just crouched there, keeping
his breeze as still as possible.

Tesarik One: Gjenrei, roll a stealth for your team.
SwordOfAtrophy: He kinda intended just to walk and being a target, lol
psionic wanderer: Well if he heard them start coming down after him, he'd be
tempted to move into the actual room as far from the manticores as he could
stay!
Tesarik One: Lore didn't have fancy darkvision, and so she waited for
everyone else to go down so she could feel her way down. She could blindfight
if needed (though the sunlight at the bottom did negate the need for that)
but she couldn't see
Tesarik One: down the passageway! Creep, creep.

moving too?)
Tesarik One: Ok so no stealth for Gjenrei?
SwordOfAtrophy: No, the stealth people can go first though, if they want.
Tesarik One: You remain stealthed, but their attention does pause in eating
the cow when they hear Gjenrei and when he appears in the room through the
doorway, he gets a volley of spikes from both of them!

Tesarik One: 52 dmg + spike poison
SwordOfAtrophy: (Bulwark - Reflect) The problem with trying to catch a

found it volleyball spiking that tail into the ground instead.

a stray howl: She wasn't seeing anything.
Tesarik One: Akaash and Lore approached the same pile of dead flesh at the
same time, and though his body had been ripped apart in pieces, there was the
(bloody) head of the man in the picture above the hearth. Lorelei would
easily locate the
Tesarik One: man's torso (what was left of it) and see a piece of parchment
splattered with blood and gore poking out of his pocket.
Tesarik One: She looked down, then looked over at Akaash and then down again
at the man's head, "That is a horrible way to die, ripped apart by a
manticore. Wonder if they'll put that on his tombstone."
psionic wanderer: "Hm." Not much to say about that. He looked back to
Lorelei, assuming she was speaking to him, then shrugged. "Doubt he'll care
either way."
SwordOfAtrophy: "Not if you don't tell anyone that fact..." He'd preferred
'betrayed by asshole son'.
Tesarik One: "Actually that's kind of amazing. I hope my tombstone will say
some crazy way I died!"
Tesarik One: "There's part of his body there I think, it's got a suit on....
there's a piece of paper..." she went and crouched down, tugging the paper
and and opened it.
Tesarik One: It is written in Sark.
RageofNocturne: :: He would step over to the others and look down to the
bodies and would look over the remains and would shake his head a bit-- That
is unfortunate...-D-
Tesarik One: She read it, cause she was a Sark, and could read Sark! "Ah
fuck, what a jackass that son of his is. We need to find him and kill him,
that's what I think. Apparently his dad changed his will and wrote him out of
it, and he
a stray howl: Qivara moved closer to Akaash and Lore when they found the
elder and she just frowned. "Not sure whoever is left will want to know the
man was fed to these things by his own kin"
Tesarik One: sent a very nasty letter to his father saying he was going to
regret it, and that he was his only son and he deserved every last brick of
the manor, and every last copper piece and he'd have it, one way or the
other."
psionic wanderer: People moving close to him! Too many of them. He started
back towards the stairs and moved up a few of them to wait for the rest of
them to finish up.
a stray howl: She nodded a bit. "Remember he said he deserved it earlier..?
Now to find the bastard."
Tesarik One: "Maybe we can find out who he wrote in his will."
a stray howl: "The library then? Kendal was sent to find his family so I'm
not sure who else to ask.." Was probably left to an animal.. weird nobility.
Tesarik One: You do not find out who he wrote in his will, because the man
hightailed it down the street already! But eventually you may hear back in
Navahla that everything was left to the manservant Kendal.
Tesarik One: Kendal had been completely unaware of it too. Some of the other
bodies were people from nearby villages. As of the moment, there is no word
of the man you now know is named "Durant Sevonius".
SwordOfAtrophy: "We can attempt to find him.. but this place has no value
for him now.. it is unlikely he will return. With the ability to teleport he
can be almost anywhere by now.. Just have to keep an ear out for his trail."
