I need you to wait a month or two or whenever Hoke can sign up. Can you do that for me?

"You have no evidence yet you are blaming a neighboring kingdom?" Hoke asks incredulously with a arched eyebrow, "Seems a dangerous game to play." Hoke looked about the room once more. "Yes, let's see the body. Are these animated mummies?"

I would have loved too, but Hoke needs some actual completed quests under his belt.

All of that effort, so unappreciated.

"What can you tell us about these murders?"

Hoke looks around the room a bit to see if something catches his eye. "Captain, is there a reason for this mess?"

"Looks like we are waiting on the lady of the bunch," with a chuckle and a wink at Guts.

Hmm... 1288 - 75 (Decamon) - 120 (Marketplace) = 1093 OR 1188 - 75 (Decamon) - 130 (Marketplace) + 100 (Hydra Eye) = 1093 Either way the outcome is the same, correct? Not being sarcastic.

Hoke shakes the monk's hand and pats him on the shoulder. "You're taking point this time?" he asks the assassin, "I am sure you will do well, and I will be here to assist you if the need arises."

Hoke makes his way to the meeting point and greets all of his fellow heroes. "Don't believe we have properly met, Hoke Ablesword," he says to the monk.

Hoke sells the Hydra Eye for 100 gold. 993+100 = 1093

Stats looks gtg. May update with Marketplace transactions later. Just wanted to check in. Thanks for picking Hoke!

SC has done AWESOME with Gut's build.

Hoke enters the Hall just in time to see the names posted and that he was selected. He was exceptionally pleased with his questmates, all capable. He looked down at Torc and wondered if it was time to use her in battle. "And you as well!" Hoke said to the former Black Knight, "Looks like you have changed your profession?" Fixed level.

Are you saying you need Hoke?

Hoke looks about the Hall and observes different pockets of conversation here and there; adventurers he'd explored with and some he has no recollection of meeting. He pulls himself out of the chair and wraps a mantle about his shoulders and leaves the Hall to venture out into the night.

Do you ever stop complaining/begging/acting slighted? You spent 5 fake gold for cards. If you lose every single round, you wind up losing 5 fake gold. If you win at least 1 round you have 2 cards, at minimum power 1 & 1, you can trade in for 2 potions = 10 fake gold.

My sarcasm senses are tingling.

Hoke finished his meal and leaned back deeply into the cushioned chair. After the previous's nights adventure, he thought maybe he should just spend the day in the chair in front of the fire. Torc seemed to agree.

Hoke was rested, but it didn't feel like it. He passed by the bar on the way down and ordered some food and drink for himself and Torc, feeling like he hadn't eaten in a week. He found his cushioned high-backed chair in its spot by the hearth and sat down with a plop. He had left his gear, arms and armor in his room, except for the small pouch tied around his neck and the orb contained within. He grabbed a log and threw it on the fire and poked about it for a bit. Torc curl up beside him in the chair, her serpentine tail wrapping around the nearest part of him. Her amber eyes seemed to soak in the fire's flames as they danced in the hearth. Hoke watched the flames too as he waited on his food, one hand absently stroking Torc, the other clenched around the pouch on his neck.

2nd'd. Should call it Heroica Hall of Hormones.

Only because Arthur wants to be a Weathermage!

Hoke enters the Hall and goes directly upstairs, Torc in tow. But first, he walks by the questboard and quickly writes down his name. Hoke signs up for quest 121.

Grand Potion x2 - 20 Remedy - 10 Grand Tonic - 30 Smelling Salts - 25 Nostrum - 35 Total - 120 1113-120=993

I wanted Hoke to throw-down in the Lotus vs the Bloodpaw & Metasimian but it felt like your posts were guiding us away from that. Anyway, thanks for the quest and the critique.
