"Mel, if you could bring my rope back too, that would be lovely."
He walks over to Reanna and stands next to her.
"Good job back there, Reanna. Thanks for the assist. About how long do you give that I've before it starts to melt, Darius?"

OOC: I'm trying to find a color that isn't being used by someone in this thread, lol. Sorry I keep changing it

"Maybe a few minutes?"

[Private to GM: OOC: Not sure about this; neither Incantation Magic (on the spell) nor Basic Set (on Engulfing) has anything to say about it.]

Re: Stalking Balar

OOC:. I tied them all together with a single rope. It was ten yards long, figure it would be plenty long enough to tie them all together. I just tied their hands behind their backs.

Masugatan waits until he stops giving off sparks, and then assists in any way he can.

In reply to Darius Kopaki (msg # 232):

I would figure a full minute only costs 3sp during casting, that is a pretty good duration for a resisted effect.

Thirty seconds later, the frozen bonds shatter, and the cutprse collapses due to fatigue loss.

How long will it take Melchizedek to hand over the thugs to the watch?

"These folk heard a rumor I was carrying a sum of money, and set upon me to steal it, but I have friends who stopped them. They should be charged as robbers or Highwaymen. May I leave them in your hand to continue upon our journey?"

Re: Stalking Balar

Aegis smirks as the man collapses and walks up to him. Kneeling next to him, he taps him on the shoulder with his axe.
"Wakey wakey, shithead. I've got quite a few questions for you. Now, Reanna, train that crossbow on him in case he decides to get any bright ideas."

Darius, watching the ice melt and Aegis intimidating the robber, stayed in the background. Time to leave it to the professional.

Re: Stalking Balar

OOC: I'm going to attempt to use soldier to gather information from the man. Nevermind...failed anyway.
00:20, Today: Aegis rolled 13 using 3d6 ((6,4,3)).
Soldier IQ/A [4] 11

"Tell me what you know, fool,
or I'll start removing body parts until you talk or die."

Aegis looks at the man and shrugs, feeling like he isn't going to get and answer out of him.  Standing and turning to the others, he shrugs in a gesture of defeat.
"If you would be so kind to bring me my rope, I can tie the man up and one of you can give it a go. Doesn't seem that he's to scared of me. At least not enough to answer my questions.

In reply to Dne Utrotare (msg # 242):

The guard accepts the line of prisoners. You can all rest a bit.

The formerly frozen cutpurse is weak from fatigue loss from the ice, and barely able to stand. He looks terrified.

Re: Stalking Balar

Darius handed Aegis a piece of rope to bind the cutpurse with. "It might be a good idea to talk," he rasped.

Re: Stalking Balar

"I don't think it necessary to tie the man up. He won't make it far,
even if he does decide to run,"
Aegis says as he grabs his rope from Darius.
He turns his attention to Melchizidek and walks to him, speaking lowly so the bandit can't
 hear him.
"if you are capable, mayhaps you can restore a bit of this man's energy. He may be
 willing to talk if it appears we are willing to show him some mercy. The man doesn't stand a
 chance of getting away, however, with Reannas's crossbow trained on him."


He turns his attention to the man again and knocks his axe against his shield loudly, trying
to get his attention.
"I will get the answers I seek out of you, boy, one way or another. You should really
consider making this easier on yourself, there's a ton to lose for you at this point. Consider
 how much your family will miss you. We've already turned your friends over to the guard, if
you cooperate, we may set you free, man."

Re: Stalking Balar

In reply to Aegis (msg # 245):

Once the prisoners have been handed over, Melchizedek checks on the donkey, when Aegis comes over and speaks to him.

"If he is not being cooperative, I will gladly speak with him."

He moves over to the prisoner.

"So you are the one who would rob Helios of funds that are to help the poor in order to
 line your own pockets, are you? Perhaps I should ask Helios to provide some insight.
"

He will start preparing to pray.

In reply to Dne Utrotare (msg # 247):

The cutpurse replies, even as he gasps for air.
"The temples are rich, and I pray to Mercury, not the Sun.  A man handing out coins is
 a man who can afford to lose his purse.  The price that fancy walking stick could fetch would
feed the poor for a year. I have no regrets but that I have been taken."

Re: Stalking Balar

Aegis laughs a bit at the man's brazenness and then shrugs to himself. He flexes his hand around the grip of his axe forcing his knuckles to pop.
"If he doesn't start answering questions, we can arrange for him to meet his God a bit earlier than he expected. I had no problems sending his friends, he won't be much of a challenge."
Aegis walks around the man, placing himself between him and the shanty town, in case he decides to make a break for it.

Re: Stalking Balar

He chuckles at dne'd comment and turns his attention to Darius.
"we may have a better time getting him to talk if he's dead first. Maybe the necromancer can reanimate him and we can get the information from his corpse, but I'm not sure that would work, to be honest. I don't know about you guys,
but I'm growing tired of arguing with the man. I say we get what we need from him and kill him."

As Aegis grows more impatient with the man, his bloodlust becomes more evident.

In reply to Guardsman (msg # 254):

As you are threatening the prisoner in front of the city watch, who are having none of it, there approaches from the fields, and entering 5he edge of the road toward you a number of adventuring types, including two elves and what looks to be a small earthen golem or elemental. The group has about seven members.
