Re: With Kalima

Out of nowhere a little fairy lands in the middle of the table.  He looks up at the man.  Trying to be helpful.

She is a nasty evil stinking Leprechaun.  They are even worse than frost elves.  They do very horrible thing to people they don't like.  Perosnally I would do what she says.  After doing that I would stick my tongue out at her.  Tell her she is an evil stinking Leprechaun and run away very fast.  He smiles at the man.  I am just trying to be helpful.  Anyway I am going to do what I come here to do and get out of here as quickly as I can.

The fairy turns to Gordab.
Hello Mr Gordab.  My friend Leroy du Lac need your help please.  After taking down some of the nasty humans We about to raid the nasty humans base of operation and we think we know who really behind the plans.  Would you be kind enough to come with me hand help Leroy du Lac.  With your help we can deal with them once and for all.

He smiles at Gordab.  Turn to Aoife and sticks his tongue out at her.  Then turns back to Gordab to listen to his answer.

OOC:
For the players that don't know.  I am rping a flaw.

Re: With Kalima

"Lord Hermes, patron of the downtrodden and benefactor of risk-takers, lend me your divine grace that this catastrophe may be averted," Benny begins to glow softly, "and strike from your aegis all those that would engage in violence within this demesne until the next dawn."

The gentle glow fades a bit, Benny slips into a more 'rough side of town' speech pattern, "Now, as I said when we entered, we ain't here to start nothin, so pray there won't be nothin." He moves over to stand behind Alban and goes to set his hand on his shoulder, "As I said young gambler, I extend Hermes protection to you while we talk, so scoop up yer winnings, let's step outside and have a bit of jaw session about the depths of trouble you find yourself in and how to get you back out of it."



OOC:  Benny activates the Prayer "Holy Touch" (which causes the glow) and then Fast Talks about evoking some sort of "curse against anyone who commits violence in the tavern".
14:43, Today: Benny Morales rolled 12 using 3d6.  Fast Talk 13, faking a "curse against those who commit violence". – [roll=1642534989.42018.341336]

Noting the new arrival, Sederic is intrigued about the raid, as it sounds much more interesting than the non-violent stuff he is doing at the moment.

Re: With Kalima

Rosewood turns to the half elf.  As usual not knowing when to keep his mouth shut.
There is a group of human racist Purist hurting fay and half fay.  Leroy du Lac and his friends have been ask to deal with them.  They seem to like attacking people so Leroy is having to deal with them the hard way.
A very sad look crosses the fairy's face.  He then tries to be positive.   As Leroy is my friend I am helping him.

He turns to Gordab.
Would he be helpful to us? The fairy points to Sederic.

At Benny's speech, and glow, the man who owned the cards grimaces, and slowly draws his hand from under the table.


Meanwhile, Kalima takes offense, and Norman looks surprised.

Re: With Kalima

Rosewood turns back to Sederic.  He bows.
I am Rosewood the fairy.  What is your name and would you like to join Gordab and me against the nasty humans.

He then for a moment turns back towards Aoife and give her a hard look.  Turn back to Sederic and smiles.

Could I ride on your shoulder Mr Gordab.  He then asks.

[Private to Aoife: Hi.  There is a good chance Aoife would know who Rosewood is or at least what special about him as a fay.  I am not sure if you know about him as a player?]

"I am definitely interested. Would those in my group object to me assisting others in need in a situation more in line with my capacity?"

[OOC: Not sure if he would unbalance the party, but he as a character is much more interested in fighting than talking, due to his sword. GM, happy to follow your direction not to if it would unbalance things though. I have another character in both parties, so as a player I am impartial.

Rosewood, I also have Aoife and Anita, so well aware of Rosewood issues!]

Re: With Kalima

In reply to Aoife (msg # 957):

Kalima seemed to be taken aback by Benny's apparent interdiction on violence, which is her thing, and the damned gambler is looking very smug.

occ

Aoife knows Rosewood as having a bad reputation among fey, for doing something inappropriate with pixie dust.

Sederic might not unbalance the party too much, as the build comes from two 125pt templates, neither being stronger than any particular character, but point awatds might be reduced,and it may be hard for them to parley if he is included.

Gordab accepts the Pixie,  but has to drop off his fiddle and get his weapon.

Re: With Kalima

OOC:
For the record.  As a player I am happy for Sederic to join us.  Rosewood will make friends with anybody unless it a is Leprechaun (no offense meant to you personally Aoife).

The other two players in group.  One is Sederic so just up to Leroy du Lac, if you want ask him Sederic.

As for parley.  Knowing Anita Drake and Leroy du Lac psychopathic tendency's I don't think that an issue (player giggles).

So I am cool with what you do as long as Leroy du Lac is.

In reply to Rosewood (msg # 961):

[OOC: Given his restriction on not being able to shed blood already will penalise him, the slight reduction in rewards my not be that significant. I will join for now, and let Leroy du Lac object in character if he does, but they seem brothers in arms...it is certainly something he would do IC]

"Given I cannot use my weapon here, I will help them. Please call me when there is violence to be wrought for good."

Sederic joins the Fairy and his large friend/mount.

Re: With Kalima

Rosewood lands on Gordab shoulder.  Somehow feeling an affinity for the big creature.
Since I left the fay world.  I notice in this world that creature have an unhealthy fascination for hurting other.  Do you know why. he ask Gordab.

Re: With Kalima

Ardenas waves after Sederic.  "Good fortune to you, warrior!"

He then turns to Alban.

"Now, according to the records we're working from, you obtained something from Johan Faust in a shop that isn't always there, in exchange for a favor.

"That shop is now permanently closed, Faust is dead, and we've been tasked with finding out what you obtained, and what you agreed to, and ensuring that you don't do harm with it.  I, like Benny here, would prefer to accomplish this by asking politely -- but I'm not a follower of Hermes and the Buddha is surprisingly lenient in terms of considering the reasons for one's actions."

Gordab, Rosewood,  and Sederic can all post in Deathtrap.

Norman exits first, to guard the alleyway against escape, Kalima steps forward to usher Alban outside, and snatching him by the shoulder, hoists him out of his chair.

Re: With Kalima

Once the group (and Alban) are in the alley Benny mutters a quick prayer, "Lord Hermes, pray grant me your gift that I may quickly find a way forward through this."

Then he turns to Alban, "Now, best to start at the beginning, what did you trade to Johan for the luck, and is it an item or familiar that is granting it or an infernal power now inherent in you?"
