Grohm'tahl followed Sylvanus and Ulo into the guild hall.  He dug into the neck of his armor and flipped out his shirt collar to show Aemon his rank badge as they entered. He has put a leather guard over the blade of his glaive, but that was as a courtesy rather than a requirement for him.

The burly half-orc smelled horrible after the encounter with the worm and he had been running on little sleep the last couple of days.  He wanted a bath, a beer and a bed, in that order.

"I am going to get cleaned up and retire to my quarters. Do you need anything from me before I do so?", Grohm asked his companions.

After turning in his sword, Jendrich takes a seat, happy for a chance to relax somewhere he feels safe.

Well, as safe as a sheltered man can feel when surrounded by so many strange (and often big) species. Although he tries to focus on his mug, the swordsman can't help glancing around at all the foreign faces surrounding him.

In reply to Jendrich (msg # 13):

the guild frontman peacebonds or collects weapons and hands out chits; ranking guild members and those with the No hassles perk enter freely.

for $1, you can get a clean spell cast on you on the upper level, but  bath is always better.

"Thank you."  She smiles a piranha's smile, which is not at all endearing, and follows Syvanus.

In reply to Ulo (msg # 15):

After checking in the crossbow, Anita takes Gordan and his cargo upstairs to Camilla's office in search of meteoric iron manacles. The sight of the trolls smile unnerves her.

Dne Utrare chicken-struts up to Grohm'Tahl.  In a sinister voice of mystery he says, "Man, you smell like I feel."

The half-orc looked at the bird-like being with a bit of annoyance. He scowled a bit but stopped and took a breath.

"My problem will be resolved soon.  Hopefully yours will too. Be well.", he said and went off to go upstairs.  A cleaning spell for him and his equipment would be well worth the cost this time.

"Did I hear someone mention baths?  I'd very much welcome several gallons of hottish water and a bowl of soap."

In reply to Virgilio Hohlfeld (msg # 19):

getting a hot bath costs $2 and is otherwise considered to be part of Cost of Living, as meals (excepting the daily stale bread, gruel, and hot brown from the guild) only sleeping or eating in the lower guild hall is living at Status-2; (base perk of 1 point) having a status 0 room costs full CoL.

In reply to Anita Drake (msg # 16):

on the second floor, you are greeted by Bellarius, Camilla's secretary.
he pulls out several near empty cheets that seem to have your badge numbers names, and a line about your profession, although with the detail that you were hired by Maddo.
"I see your party is smaller. Did your mission go well?"

In reply to Bellarius (msg # 21):

"None were lost in action. We did find an individual we need to constrain in cold iron manacles, and another half-ogre musician who assisted us though."

Syvanus also addresses Bellarius, Troll Mage Ulo also wishes to speak with Camilla about some unspeakable things the guild may have taken part in.

On presumption that a Status 0 room includes a bed, and since I have coin at the moment, I'll pay ahead.  COL $150/mo?  Plus a couple for a bath, and a meal that isn't common room food?

I'm also still a little banged up (1 HP) from the bandit camp; is there a healer offering service?

OOC:  Per week.

In reply to Virgilio Hohlfeld (msg # 24):

Col is $150 per week at status 0, and includes regular meals and baths and such.
there is a (non clerical) healer you can see.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 23):

"I shall inform her... first let me present the members of this group... and we don't  provide manacles here, but Ashbury's might have them."

In reply to Bellarius (msg # 27):

"For hire? That would be most suitable."

Dne asks Virgilio if anyone in their party has manacles.  They sound like a good idea.

"Well, D'ne, there's the set I had when we met.  I think Reanna has those -- anyone with any kind of magery would be loathe to even carry them in a backpack, I think."  He shudders.

"But yes, sky iron manacles chained to a framework and headgear including a scold's bridle.  I can still taste it.  Extremely difficult to cast when it's on, I think most would find it impossible."

In reply to Virgilio Hohlfeld (msg # 30):

"This particular subject has Fey powers we would like to negate. Would they do that to?"

"I fear I'm not very knowledgeable about the fey folk and their ways; I've just come from being a research apprentice.  Ask me about arcane writings, and I'm your man -- but I can tell you anyone who uses mana the same way a mage does would be severely distressed by them.

"Oh, it occurs to me, Reanna likely sold them quite recently, but she would probably tell you to whom."

In reply to Virgilio Hohlfeld (msg # 32):

OOC: We handled the sales a bit indirectly. Were they sold? Are they cold iron, or something else?

Marcus rolled his eyes in exasperation.
What did it take to contain the evil faerie?
"The fey Anita is talking about is a threat. Normally we would just kill her, but she may have information that we need. And we must make sure she is not getting the better on us. We need to contain her powers."
"Who can help us... for real?"

OOC:  No, because they were never listed on the GM's loot listings, so I forgot about them.  They are meteoric iron.

Basic shackles are $200, meteoric (basic) shackles are $4,000, specially designed "anti-wizarding" shackles are probably twice the regular price.

In reply to Dilandua (msg # 35):

So we still have them...and a chance to make money hiring them out before selling them! Nice...$20 per day hire rate?
