Re: An Old Foe...A Potential Ally?
The scholar looks Genovia up and down. A similar look by a human male might have resulted in a slap, or possibly a date depending on the girl being looked at. However, Jarsichok's manner is more of a professional tailor sizing up a client.
"I know just the thing." His whole body bobbing up and down. The movement is strange for a moment, but then is soon recognized as his form of a nod. Jarsichok scuttles off and returns a moment later with some sleek boots and matching vest and leggings. Both are of a beautiful black that scintillates in the light like beetle carapace, or more accurately, like the carapace of a number of the Echtinik in the vast market cavern. "Yes, these will do nicely. Try them on."
They look as if they will fit, but there is something not quite right about them from human standards.
While Genovia weighs the wisdom of putting the alien-wear on, Jarsichok moves on to Zenobia. "Hmm," he says, bobbing up and down again. "Aha! I will return shortly."
When he comes back, he has another suit of black armor, but it is configured much differently than Genovia's. It seems, somehow, more durable and perhaps a bit more elegant in some way. The suit also shines with the same scintillating black and has the same alien feel to it.
Jarsichok also carries an odd contraption. It is a dull black, more like the limbs of the Echtinik than the carapaces. The contraption resembles a bow, and in fact there is a string in the right place, except it looks too soft to get much tension. The curved part ends on either side in a flat, almost blade-like figure. "Be careful," the scholar warns. "The blades are very sharp." Danela receives a suit similar to Genovia, but a weapon like the one handed to Zenobia. As he hands them over and looks expectantly at the women. Tyler has said nothing and so Jarsichok ignores him for the moment, eager to see how the new equipment is received by the diplomats from the foreign nation.
[Private to Danela Sundusk; Genovia Swiftfoot; Zenobia Aurelius Gracchus: There are no places to change in the large market cavern so if changing into the armor requires a bit of immodesty on your part, you'll need to ask Jarsichok about that.]
((Roll Sense Motive Checks
You may also roll any appropriate crafting check with a -1 to determine the capabilities of your new equipment. A successful roll by any one member on any equipment will give you an idea of what the equipment does. You can also ask Jarischok for in character information, i.e. this improves your protection, range, speed rather than +1AC, +15 range, +10 base movement))
