Thanks Zepher!

"Very well, I'll show you the way." The mage led the party up the marble stairs and into the majestic home. They went through the front entryway, down a hall and at the end of the hall through a black door. "He's expecting you, it would be best if you don't touch anything in here. I will leave you to your meeting." She looks over at Bocaj. "Are you staying with these folks, or should I walk you out?" "I think I'll stay for now, I wanted to say hello to Sir The party heads into the room. It's full of what look to be artifacts and many tomes and scrolls overflowing shelves. "Ah you made it! You are a bit earlier than I expected, did you get all six of the boxes? Bocaj! You aren't from Heroica now are you?" "No, me a hero?" He laughs. "I'm to old for those sorts of adventures, and I have my shop to look after. No, I'm just escorting these folks from town to your home. I was headed over to Marvella's to deliver something tonight." "Ah, very well. So," He clasps his hands together and looks at the party with a grin. "who has the boxes?" How will the party respond?

Very cool!

There is a minifig for all of these, including Wald now. So I guess Warwick wins.

You are good at it then. I dunno if you are good at your first job or not, but I think I will assume yes based on your ninja skills.

Heads and Torsos are Boss. - I said it because they are. Someone sneaky Big Cam gave me the title.

Excellent work. I love all the little details you put into it. Thank you for taking separate shots of each of the detail items!

Welcome to EB!

"It would be my pleasure, m'lady." He leads the party down the road to the estate. They stop at the closed golden gate. Just as Tesni is about to ask what's next, a woman with a staff comes down the white marble stairs and opens the gate slightly to speak to them. "Who are you, what do you want?" She then sees Bocaj and something like a smile cracks her grim face. "Bocaj! Long time no see. Do you have a delivery for Favarious? He didn't mention anything." "No ma'am. These fine folks were in my shop asking where they could find the Manor, and so I though I'd show them to it directly." He smiles sheepishly at the orcish mage. "Though, I was so excited to come by, I failed to ask them what thier business is with him." "Ah, well we can rectify that right now." She looks over at the party. "How can we help you?" How will the party respond?

[pid][/pid]216A SS GuppyTowne by V&A Steamworks, on Flickr Another wonderful creation from V&A Steamworks, this little town is full of detail. Turning a ship into a home is not easy, turning it into three homes is amazing. There's some great SNOT work here, and a few little scenes happening. Click the photo to see the huge 2604 x 2367 size image. What do you think? [bloggedcp][/bloggedcp]

Was great to see the whole layout in the comfort of my own home! Thanks for the video Mike.

Excellent work ! Your sculpting is freakin awesome. Farscape is my altimeters time favorite scifi show, bravo on such nice figure creation. I'm looking forward to seeing some fun scenes.

Bocaj leads the party out of the marketplace and through the city. They travel through nice areas, and skirt the downtrodden. Heading up a steep street, they get to what must be the Hilltop District. The homes are spaced out with glorious landscaping. Each home more spectacular than the last, but not by much. All the homes seem to be protected by magic and even in the low light of the evening they glimmer and glow. As the path heads down into a small valley, Bocaj points at a huge white palace rimmed with pine trees. "There it is, Favarious Manor. I can leave you here to go about your business, or come with you if you'd like. I don't mind either way. Always have wanted to see what Sir Favarious keeps in his trophy room, but I do have this delivery to make up the road." How will the party respond?

Zepher I agree with everything you jus said.

"Sounds like a plan. We will head up there in a few minutes, I only have to ask you folks to step outside while I lock everything up." He ushers the party out the door and heads back inside after telling them he'll join them in a moment, they hear a click as he locks the front door. Standing on the street in front of the building, the party notices how deserted the streets are now. The sun has set, looks like all of the shops are locked up tightly. They all just stand around quietly for a moment waiting for the shopkeeper to come out. Then, Maurice steps out in front of everyone and turns to address the group. "Tesni, Namyrra....Eric. I need to talk to you all about something before the shopkeeper comes back out. This quest we are on, is just not sitting right with me. We've been chased by thieves since before we even had the first package, why? We are being paid a lot of money to deliver these packages to this man we are about to meet, but doesn't that seem strange to any of you? Why so much gold, why even have Heroica do it at all? Things are delivered every day safely around the world without any help from heroes. It does not feel right, and I am not sure why nobody else seems to feel this way." He pauses for a moment, pulling the Bag of Holding out of his pack and holding it in his clenched fists. "Worst of all, we just assisted a bank robbery. You can try and excuse it by saying we didn't know what was happening, but who shot first, I ask you? What happened to all the customers while we were busy dividing the loot? What did Toby mean by silenced? Ennoc knows that Eric has no soul to be saved, but what of you Tesni? Through this quest, who have we helped so far? Have we bettered the world? What about that little girl crying in the streets of Eubric? We ran right past her, we wanted our gold! This is not a quest of The Righteous Light, this is not something I can be involved with anymore." He hands Tesni the bag and lowers his eyes. "There is another Hero here in Mistaria, I've seen her a few times now in passing. I fear the worst, this evil place shall not take one of us if it can be helped. I feel that Ennoc is giving me a sign for my true calling, I must go and try to find her and help if I can. I am positive that you can continue the quest without my assistance, besides I never manage to hit an enemy anyway. I know when the ship leaves, and please do not fear as I will be there with you, but for now I take my leave. Goodbye friends, and may Ennoc guide you to do the right thing." Before anyone can say a word, Maurice takes off down the street and disapears between two buildings. The shopkeeper arrives to find the party staring at an alley, Tesni holding a rough leather bag in her hands, and Eric with a smug but disbelieving look on his face.

Oh yeah. +1 to WhiteFang

I did post my concerns here as soon as I was able to. As you could see by the PMs that responding on my phone is a bit difficult and especialy when having to navigate a long thread like this (it's a small screen). If I had it to do over again, I still wouldn't post my concerns from my phone and would still have the delay you find so suspicious. Well, I just wanted to get my point accross and it is 100% true. If you (the collective you not anyone in particular) post a PM in any thread without my permission I will react very poorly and it has nothing to do with any game. Just thinking about it every happening makes me start feeling angry. This is just a personal (darkdragon) thing and I (darkdragon) know I've mentioned it before to some folks (you know who you are) when there was no mafia scum to root out of any ships (about a month ago). I'll be back in a bit with comments regarding what's said so far today, but felt that I should at least address these two comments before I have my lunch.

"Sorry to hear I don't have any goods you are looking for." He starts clearing papers off the counter and storing the foods while he talks. "Sir Favarious, aye he lives here. Up in Hilltop District. Big place, but then they are all big places up there." He chuckles. "Though they each say they are the richest in the city." The shopkeeper looks around at his shop and then back at the party. "Tell you what, I'm almost done here and if you'll give me just a few minutes I can take you right to his place. I'm heading that way myself to make one last delivery tonight. Just need to close up the shop first. If you'd rather go alone, I can just describe it, but if I show you then it will be quicker. Not sure how big of a rush you folks are in." He smiles kindly. How will the party respond?

Congrats winners! Great work everyone.

This car design is really great. Overall look, scale, and of course the engine!
