ADHO15 Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 "The vote looks to stand at three to two in favour of the sewers. Do you stand by your decision, party leader?" Quote
Kadabra Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 "Actually, it seems like a tie, Ad-hoh. You and the ranger are for the sewers, while our two melee combatants wish to go for the gate. Would anyone here object to the two of them causing a distraction up front whilst the three of us sneak in via the sewers?" Quote

ADHO15 Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 "Actually, it seems like a tie, Ad-hoh. You and the ranger are for the sewers, while our two melee combatants wish to go for the gate. Would anyone here object to the two of them causing a distraction up front whilst the three of us sneak in via the sewers?" "My apologies, I must have misheard you. I assumed by the way you said it was the 'obvious choice' that you were in favour of us going that way." "Is the part allowed to split to observe each entrance? I fear that a disturbance at the main entrance may attract more attention than our fellow heroes can handle, and we may need their skills to safely get through the sewers. As our friends said, the sewers are not guarded, so creating a diversion probably will not help us in any way." Quote
Jedi master Brick Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 "cancel what I said last. We need everyone together, going through the gate is suicide, all of us should go through the sewers. We don't want to lose our healer." Quote
swils Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 ... "going through the gate is suicide," ... "We don't want to lose our healer." "I'd be lyin' if I said I was a fan of your overly cautious attitude, Elgar, but then you come and sweep me off my feet with a sentiment like that! I don't see much point in splittin' up, so it looks like I'll be gettin' my feet wet. Anyone got a few mint leaves I could plug up my nose with? Heh heh." Quote
Kadabra Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 "Excellent, we all go through the sewers. I blame the ranger if we end up the lunch of an evil sewer monster. " Quote
Jebediahs Posted June 11, 2012 Author Posted June 11, 2012 Ranger jovially slapped Arasmyth on the back. "Well done, Arasmyth! Smart man. It was an excellent decision having an elf lead us. Did I mention elves taught me everything I know about killin'? Elves raised me in fact. Interesting story..." The duo walked off in the direction of Nahrees and the rest of the party followed. The heroes traveled for half an hour through the unnamed forest when the Maa'ri Ranger raised his right fisted hand, signalling the group to stop. "What have you found?" "Sign. She went down this path." "We must make a quick stop." The heroes followed the orcs off the main path to Nahrees down a dirt trail. After some time they spotted a dwarven man at a makeshift kiosk. His face is partially masked. Rogue hands each member of the party 100 gold. "Here is the promised quest reward. Use it to buy from her if you need to. Her wares shall aid us in our entry into Nahrees." "Eh, hem! I am clearly a man my dear woman!" "Dee, I know it's you. These people are friends. Group, meet my good friend Dee Skyes, Mistress of a Million Faces. Her and I have been friends for years yet not even I know her true form." "Well not so loud! I don't need you blabbin' my identity to all of Olegaia! What can I do ya for?" Trickster’s Mask of the...

Kadabra Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Never fear, Kadabra's is here! Arasmyth tosses 50 coins onto the counter and grabs a gender change mask. Noticing the odd looks he's getting as he unzips his Ether pocket to store the mask, he asks "What? I'm a proud Elf, no way I'm turning into one of you other races, no offense." Quote
swils Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Thormanil chuckles as he trades 50 coins for a Gender Swap Mask "Oh-ho, this is guaranteed to be a good time. I'm sure I'll find at least a few chances to make use of this! Hah hah!" He puts the mask on... "Well? Somebody, tell me how good I look!" Noticing everyone else smirking and nudging each other, he looks down and realizes that his chest is still bare. "Ah.. hm. Kinda figured I'd get a little more coverage outta the illusion. I should probably look into fixing that, and quickly, eh?" Before taking the mask off to break the spell, he dances around a little, and admires his new 'equipment' "What?! Don't tell me you wouldn't take a moment to appreciate the fine details of an advanced spell such as this one... Now, hey! Eyes off the goods, folks!" He takes off the mask and, satisfied with the quality of the first, he decides to purchase a Weredog Mask as well, leaving him with his original 17 gold. Quote
Jedi master Brick Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Elgar bought the elf mask for 50 gold OOC: Great Idea Jebediahs Quote
Jebediahs Posted June 12, 2012 Author Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) Ranger shook his head at Thormanil. "You humans are always good for a chuckle. I suppose we shall refer to you as 'Thormana the Ample Breasted' for the rest of the quest?" Rogue and Ranger make their purchases from Dee Skyes. "An elf? Really? I never imagined you could get any uglier." "Shut up. Buying a mask isn’t necessary for our quest’s completion-” "Hey! I’m trying to make a livin’ here!" "But walking around in a city that hates greenskins without one may cause us extra hardship. It is up to you, Knifk and Ad-Hoh. Rogue, Ranger and Hound join the party!

Jebediahs Posted June 12, 2012 Author Posted June 12, 2012 "Mistress Sykes, would you accept 70 gold apiece for each of your scrolls? I do not wish to spend so much gold when our quest has only just begun." Dee's beard and mustache fluttered as she expelled air in a huff. "Bah! It took me too many masks in trade to buy those scrolls! If I ever see the swindler who I traded with again, I'm going to give him a swift kick in the tenders! I plan on selling them for at least 200 gold once I make my way to Eubric. There's bound to be a desperate mage to exploit. The price is the price." Quote
ADHO15 Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 "Very well. In that case I shall give them a miss and we can go on with our quest." Quote

Jebediahs Posted June 13, 2012 Author Posted June 13, 2012 The party departed the grove not knowing if they'd see Dee Skyes again or what form she would appear in next.

As they get closer they see a tall and lanky lad of eleven seasons playing by a stream of odorless sewage that appears to be clean as water. The boy watched carefully as a handful of elves, a couple humans, a dwarf and a dog came before him. Behind the boy the party recognized the sewer gate they would soon enter through. Before they could get to it, the boy stood in their way. "Hello there! I, I didn't think anyone ever came over here, especially with the wedding of our leader, He Who is Closest to Akkaba to his soon-to-be bride going on." He poorly stifled a laugh but couldn't contain a ginormous grin as he watched Thormanil's perky bosom bounce as he walked. "My apologies ma'am *cough*. We wear a bit more clothing around here. Hm, you all must be new. Are you recruits recently enlightened by the word of Akkaba?" How will the party respond? CAUTION: The Party has a 2/6 chance with diplomacy and a 1/6 chance without of boy accepting party's answer so you could pretty much say whatever you want! Quote
swils Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 ThormanilThormana clears hisher throat, then to hisher surprise, speaks in a rough, but clearly feminine voice, "Ehehe, my apologies young sir! Our hound here decided it would be funny if he stole my top away while I was washing. It hadn't much bothered me til now, but you're quite right--it would be most inappropriate of me to waltz into the city clothed as indecently as I stand before you now! Might I have your tunic, so as to cover myself? I'll buy it off you for a few gold coins... or, perhaps a young man such as yourself would be more interested in touchin' a perfect pair like these, hmmm...?" (S)he grins slyly as he puffs his chest out, and awaits the boy's answer. OoC: For italicized writing(character-actions), I'll just be referring to Thormanil as a he. Keep it gender-appropriate in anything else, though. Quote

As Akkaba's worshipers, we were directed to your city to meet with our brethren and secure a place to spend the night." Quote
Jebediahs Posted June 13, 2012 Author Posted June 13, 2012 OoC: You guys are funny! QM Note: Encounter /roll result: FAIL! The lad begins to stiffen as he raises his hands towards the bared goods. Suddenly, he awakens from his haze. "Hey! Are you trying to mind control me? You are no pilgrams, you are heretics! I'm going to get the guards!" The boy attempts to run towards the Main Gate but slips and falls. What will the party do? "GRAB HIM!" Quote
swils Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 "Things just cant ever be easy... " Letting out a heavy sigh, Thormanil lifts his staff and swings it at the boy, aiming to knock him senseless with the blunt side of the weapon. Quote
