After Skrall had entered the hall 75 coins richer for a hood he'd considered to be not much use, Atramor couldn't help but sate his curiosity, especially because Elphaba was sure to be leaving soon. Approaching the odd elf, he held the Ratmancer's Cowl (double damage to Vermin) aloft. "This worth anything? As much as it might suit me, I assume newer heroes would get more use out of it, seems like there are less and less rats in greater quests these days...in any case, I can take of vermin 'em no problem already, so this ain't much help to me."

1. Dystopia, Hogwarts, Eurodina, Werewolf, Baritones III, Bloodbricks II, Gotham, IMHOTEP, Yakuza, Exaclibur, Steampunk, Forest II, Ragnarok. 2. Yep. 3. Yep, really. 4. Steak.

You do know you're dead, right?

Yay, Barty's back.

This is what happens when you autoroll too much, I suppose. Everything's been fixed, I believe.

Atramor coughs when Boomingham slaps him, splattering the table in rum. "...Aye...right..."

Jeez, that was a lot of rounds.

Atramor cackled dryly. "You have no idea. You should've been there in my first Quest for them...sometimes I just gotta wonder if they're actually tryin' to help Eubric at all."

Atramor shrugs and nods at Skrall as he takes a seat as well. "I've had messier escapes. 'Least we didn't have half the city tryin' to hunt us down. It wouldn't surprise me, Boomin'ham. Best thing they ever did was point us in the direction of killer statues we had to smash..."

Atramor looked up the Ablesword fellow as he approached him and Boomingham. "Atramor Gibbin. Haven't seen you around the hall, but you look experienced enough."

Arthur's scroll reading goes awry, but he fries the Dusk Widow to a crisp with a beam of light. De'kra swiftly pulls on his new cloak. Barur receives a nasty splinter from the barrel of spiders, and the Gloom Widow lunges at Thalion, biting him on the arm before he can swat the creature away. The remaining spiders nibble at the heroes, but the Glow Widow somehow mistakes the vibrant red spider for De'kra. Clearly the cloak is working. Six enemies remain.

I can't copy and paste directly from Word anymore so sometimes I forget stuff, sorry.

Well, you have to wear it when you use it, so it only makes sense that if a battle is sprung on De'kra, he's unable to change them quickly enough.

De'kra was using the Cloak of the Elven Spy when the battle initiated. It takes a turn to swap out artifacts.

The stats of the crates pose no threat. De'kra's search brings him to the dark brown barrel, but his short stature makes it difficult to look inside. Before he can, however, it tips over right on top of the Assassin, a bright red spider crawling out. It blinks down him, and as if it's a signal, five more vibrantly colored arachnids follow suit.

The heroes step past Filmore and into the cargo hold. It's dark, and quite a few crates and barrels line the walls and floors. He points them towards one side of the hold. "T-This is where I saw them..."

Atramor could swear he saw someone at the balcony of the saloon, but when he looked again, the figure had disappeared. With a shrug, he glanced sideways, as Boomingham sidled into the hall. The witch pulled the Marksman's Monocle off, and handed it back to the Paladin. "Here, mate. Didn't manage to get much use out of it, but I appreciate you lendin' it to me anyway."

Atramor looked up at William as he re-entered the hall, nodding to the ranger. There's one familiar face. He sat down at the table McCafferey was perched upon, and nodded to the man. "Hey, William. How ya' doin'? Haven't seen ya' since that mess in Dastan."

"Huh. Sounds like he was just gettin' too smart for most people to be comfortable with..." Atramor briefly thanked the librarian, and went back to the main room of the hall.

De'kra looks over Filmore's shoulder and across several crates and barrels, but not knowing where to focus, he's unable to locate anything.

"My name's Filmore. And, uh, thanks." He accepts Arthur's telescope. De'kra gives him a piercing stare.

"Uh....I can drag you out of there if you get completely overrun with spiders, I guess...."

"...Yeah, uh, this sword's just for decoration...I can't really...strictly...fight, you see...."
