− | This was a spontaneous PrP that arose from a conversation in the Fernwood Pub - the first part of |
||
− | |||
− | this log shows that conversation, with the actual PrP starting a little later on. |

||
− | The common room of the Fernwood Pub dominates the inn, spacious and airy because of the |
||
− | |||
− | high, vaulted ceiling. Ornately carved beams of dark, polished wood form a lattice overhead, |
||
− | |||
− | supporting the arched roof two storeys above the floor. To the right of the double-door entry is a |
||
− | |||
− | spiral staircase, winding upwards to a balcony that rings and overlooks the main area. Large windows |
||
− | |||
− | at this level grant an excellent view of the river to the west and colorful market stalls to the |
||
− | |||
− | north and east. An air of coziness is salvaged by keeping the pub dimly lit; parchment-shrouded mana |
||
− | |||
− | lanterns hang at intervals from the base of the balcony, nestled amongst lush, magically propagated |
||
− | |||
− | ivy and ferns that grow over this false demi-ceiling and the struts that support it. |
||
− | The bar is sleek and simple, comprised of meticulously polished black lacquer. Tables are |
||
− | |||
− | set under the darker niches formed by the balcony floor as well as on the balcony itself. A few are |
||
− | |||
− | deliberately sized to accommodate halflings and gnomes, but the majority are meant for human-sized |
||
− | |||
− | individuals. A large common table is on the main floor, set before a semi-circular stage situated |
||
− | |||
− | against the western wall. Beside it, with pipes mounted upon the wall and running up past the balcony |
||
− | |||
− | and almost to the ceiling, is a refurbished pipe organ made to look like the one lost when the |
||
− | |||
− | Fernwood was destroyed during the Merkabah Siege. |

||
− | |||
− | Vuk doesn't carry his customary rifle in polite company, then again, he's wondering if most people |
||
− | |||
− | consistute as polite company. ESPECIALLY Elves thanks to Sandy shoving him into pocket dimensions. |
||
− | |||
− | The Innkeeper waits till Vuk sits down and doesn't appear to be about to do his antics before |
||
− | |||
− | delivering his meal, which Vuk uses a small pen knife to cut into and eat heartily. "Here's to the |
||
− | |||
− | return of spring, when ever Dana blesses us with it!" He says in a cheerful tone and raises his |
||
− | |||
− | tankard to take a long sip! |
||
− | |||
− | Aurala shrugs, "Spring, winter, Summer, Fall, All is good, one learns to resist the cold and heat, |
||
− | |||
− | and so one doesn't mind as time passes." she chuckles and then shrugs a bit. |
||
− | |||
− | Findrago wanders into the pub. "Well met, one and all!" he calls jovially, plopping down into a chair |
||
− | |||
− | near the familiar faces. "And how is everyone this fine, foggy day?" |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc nods, "And who is your friend? Sorry for being rude, my name is Duroc." He leaves it at that, |
||
− | |||
− | but does not raise his cup to the gobber's toast, but he does nod to Aurala, "Aye, no sense |
||
− | |||
− | complaining when it changes little, best to just prepare and weather the storms." |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn sips at her tea as Duroc asks his question. "It isn't here right now, but my friend's name is |
||
− | |||
− | Oakheart, or that's the one it gave me." She then smiles. "Ferawyn, Hunter of Gilead. A pleasure to |
||
− | |||
− | meet you Duroc." |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk just -assumes- Duroc needs a proper introduction from his self, so he stands on the bench of the |
||
− | |||
− | table, doffs his Top hat at the dwarf and then gives an exagerated bow. "Vuk Aleksy! Adventurer |
||
− | |||
− | Extradionare! Slayer of the Undead! Defender of paths better left untrodden! Dispeller of animated |
||
− | |||
− | objects! Scout esquire and camp steward! At your service good sir!" He says with another bow and |
||
− | |||
− | doffing of his hat. Then he decides as he almost steps off the bench to sit down in am oment of being |
||
− | |||
− | wise. |
||
− | |||
− | Findrago kicks his feet up onto a nearby chair. "And he's humble, too," he says with a grin and a nod |
||
− | |||
− | of his head in Vuk's direction. |
||
− | |||
− | Aurala smiles a little adn then stretches, "Nice too meet all, if you need someone strong, or someone |
||
− | |||
− | to smash, keep me in mind. Work has been slow lately." |
||
− | |||
− | "I see," Duroc says and mumbles something about gobbers as he chews on a piece of beef, "Well, that |
||
− | |||
− | isn't good. Work would be most welcome, but I'll take what I can find." |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn says, "Well, the adventurer's guild offers odd jobs whenever things come up." However, she |
||
− | |||
− | then tilts her head. "What is it you do though, Duroc?"" |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk isn't sure if Findrago is poking fun at him or not so he gives one of his cheerful naive smiles |
||
− | |||
− | at the man. "Of Course Good Sir Findrago!" His Sir comes out more like Sah, because Gobber speak or |
||
− | |||
− | some such, but he's tearing into his sausages now. Spicy blood and pork sausages! |
||
− | |||
− | Findrago waves for the barkeep to bring over a mug of ale. "I mean that in the truest sense," he |
||
− | |||
− | says. "I'm sure how you describe yourself barely begins to cover your exploits, Vuk." He turns to |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc. "Name's Findrago Garibaldi - pleasure to make your acquaintance." |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc hunches over his food a little, almost out of instinct, "I hunt, I make arrows, and I get by. |
||
− | |||
− | Bit of a treasure hunter, but trouble usually accompanies treasure so I haven't done too much of |
||
− | |||
− | that. But I'll take a look o'er at the guild to see what I can do for them. The coin will be |
||
− | |||
− | welcome." |
||
− | |||
− | Aurala has gotten a bit quiet as she eats and then just watches as she has finishes the food. |
||
− | Vuk is thinking Findrago is teasing him, and for about half a second, he might even look less then |
||
− | |||
− | cheerful, but then he is right back to it with a broad grin. "I dare say I aspire to be worthy of |
||
− | |||
− | even Lady Sandiel's respect!" He says and raises his tankard again, taking polite sips, for he's a |
||
− | |||
− | proper Gentleman. |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn tilts her head to Duroc. 'Comfortable in the woods, Duroc?" She says giving a longer look to |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc, as if she was trying to see how truthful he was, and how comfortable he was in the woods. Bows |
||
− | |||
− | and arrows were normally an elf thing, not a dwarf. |
||
− | |||
− | "Aye, I can work in the woods, under the mountains, in the fields. Wherever I am sent, I will go," |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc's voice gives little away, "I can use a bow fairly well, but like yonder lady," he gestures to |
||
− | |||
− | Aurala, "I prefer to smash my opponents." |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn says, "Ah, so you are a hunter as well?"" |
||
− | |||
− | Findrago raises his mug back to Vuk. "And you are most worthy," he says, then takes a long sip of his |
||
− | |||
− | drink and looks to Duroc. "Adaptive. Quite impressive," he muses. "Not many that I know who can both |
||
− | |||
− | smash and shoot." |
||
− | |||
− | Aurala nods, and stretches, "I have learned to harness my rage and it serves me pretty well." she |
||
− | |||
− | says and then shakes her head a bit. She takes a drink from the tankard she has. |
||
− | |||
− | "Aye, I can hunt. No sense going out and about if you can't feed yourself," Duroc nods and leans |
||
− | |||
− | back, having finished his beef, "Enough things out there need a killin' and I am here to oblige." His |
||
− | |||
− | tone is actually rather neutral, "It is the way the world works." |
||
− | |||
− | Oh By the Gods, some one did it, they mentioned hunting, and it has Vuk soon on top of the table and |
||
− | |||
− | animated. "Why! I love a good spot of hunting! Nothing quite like it! Rather thrilling when you've |
||
− | |||
− | cornered your game and take the shot! Then you get to prepare the most succulent of dishes!" He says |
||
− | |||
− | whilst aiming an invisible rifle and firing. "Jolly good show it is! We should bring Zippo hunting!" |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn finally looks up at the gobber and scowls. "I don't see how you could ever go hunting. You |
||
− | |||
− | can't be quiet long enough for an animal to wander by. You're louder than a mountain dwarf who |
||
− | |||
− | doesn't like the woods." She then looks to Duroc and sighs. 'Apologies, Duroc. If you are, indeed, a |
||
− | |||
− | hunter like you say, then we could probably work together in the woods." |
||
− | |||
− | <OOC> Findrago would be happy to run a hunting scene PrP, if people are up for it. :) |
||
− | |||
− | "You talk too much, gobber," Duroc says without a smile. He sips on his ale and waves towards |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn, "Meh, none taken. Should the opportunity arise, I will go, nothing better to do as of right |
||
− | |||
− | now, and the practice would be welcome." |

− | These rooms are for player-run plots, although plots may also be run ongrid any time and at |

− | |||
− | of Player Run Plots we're speaking of any adventure or IC event that involves at least two or more |
||
− | |||
− | players in addition to the one running the scene. |
||
− | |||
− | This can be anything from an emitted scene of a bar room brawl to a dungeon crawl. The |
||
− | |||
− | system is set up in a way to encourage spontaneous plots as well as pre-planned scenarios with |
||
− | |||
− | minimal fuss with the staff. In short, if you have an itch to run a player run plot, for the most |
||
− | |||
− | part you're allowed to do so. That is, plots tend to not require pre-approval from staff. Visit the |

− | |||
− | EVENTS: Hunting Trip is scheduled to start RIGHT NOW! |
||
− | |||
− | <OOC> Findrago says, "Going to keep us in the Fernwood Pub for starters, go from there. Give a good |
||
− | |||
− | chance for the newcomers to join in before we hit the forest." |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk pages: I foresee this going to hell with non hunters XD |
||
− | |||
− | The party continues talking about hunting over their drinks - who can, who can't, and who would most |
||
− | |||
− | likely make a lot of noise trudging through the woods. A few people at nearby tables can't help but |
||
− | |||
− | be seen eavesdropping on the conversation, and one man actually turns his chair around completely to |
||
− | |||
− | face the group. "If it's hunting yer lookin' for," he says, no small amount of rotgut evident on his |
||
− | |||
− | breath, "then *hic* about a half day to the north... there's yer spot." He waves his tankard at the |
||
− | |||
− | door, sloshing his drink all over the place. "Was there not three days ago, an' it's a hunter's |
||
− | |||
− | dream." |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn raises her eyebrows. "really? What exactly is there?" |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk was declining on speaking of his abilities, the elf and dwarf didn't think he could be of use, |
||
− | |||
− | and it has him -candidly- hurt. He prided him self on his ability to disappear into the woods and |
||
− | |||
− | snow. But they were insulting him about it, so he wasn't going to be of much interest in them. He can |
||
− | |||
− | hunt on his own! He's done it for a living! He provided an Inn with meat for a long time! |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc raises a brow, wiping the ale from his beard, "Aye, what is out there? I like to know what |
||
− | |||
− | /can/ be hunted before I go out, surprises are seldom welcome on a hunt." |
||
− | |||
− | Takiyah had been quietly drinking off to the side, but the talk of hunting caught her attention. |
||
− | |||
− | "Might be willing to lend a hand," she remarked as she walks over to the group. "There's a project |
||
− | |||
− | I'm working on, and the right materials could help wrap it up." |
||
− | |||
− | The man looks at his drink as if to question how the liquid keeps escaping as he waves the mug |
||
− | |||
− | around, then wisely places it down on the table in a rare moment of clarity. "The usual stuff, but |
||
− | |||
− | lots of it. Deer. Bears. I think I saw a moose. Big uns, too. Antlers the size of /this/!" he says, |
||
− | |||
− | spreading his arms as far wide as he could... which nearly causes him to tip off his chair. "We're |
||
− | |||
− | talkin' trophy stuff." |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn gives the man a level look. "If I'm going to hunt, it's because it's a menace to the |
||
− | |||
− | surrounding area, or for food, not for trophies. besides, I don't keep trophies anyways." She then |
||
− | |||
− | sighs a bit. "at least I got the smell off of me from the nest. ugh." |
||
− | |||
− | "Eh, a large moose means a large amount of meat, and I doubt it is a boon to the farmers. I'll go for |
||
− | |||
− | it, antlers will simply be a welcome prize, as well as any hides or pelts we can get," Duroc says |
||
− | |||
− | bluntly, sipping from his tankard again. |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn says, "Mm....good point. Though I'm sure a few of the people around can use the meat. Of |
||
− | |||
− | course, you get first call on the meat, Duroc...as long as you eat it." She then smiles a bit. "I'm |
||
− | |||
− | going to guess my friend will have to come along too."" |
||
− | |||
− | The man shrugs to Ferawyn. "If'n you don't want a trophy, ya' don't need to take one. I've found |
||
− | |||
− | decent coin in 'em, though, and I'm sure others might as well. But the meat..." He kisses his fingers |
||
− | |||
− | for emhpasis. "Pretty much falls off the bone. Tender as all get out." |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc nods, "Aye, we had best get going then, no sense wasting any time." The dwarf looks at Vuk, and |
||
− | |||
− | points, "You, if ye can keep your mouth shut, come with us. Maybe you will prove useful." |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn snerks at the man. "Not worried about trophies. Meat can be good at times. The hide might be |
||
− | |||
− | useful though." She says as she gets up. "We'll meet Oakheart on the way, Duroc." She says as she |
||
− | |||
− | starts her way on out. |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk is already disappearing into the crowd, see? Granted, he's -short- which helps, but he doesn't |
||
− | |||
− | need their permission to hunt! It's just moose, and it's not like he has to worry about dire rats or |
||
− | |||
− | some thing..or a Genie.. |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc nods, "Very well." He grabs his own things next to him and makes his way to the door. |
||
− | |||
− | Ssylrath is outside brushing his large bear. He is festooned with trinkets and trophies on leather |
||
− | |||
− | thongs, each a claw, tooth or feather of some sort. He is taking quietly to the shaggy beast in |
||
− | |||
− | Draconic. |
||
− | |||
− | "Happy huntin'!" calls the drunk, staggering to the door to see the party off. "When ya' bring home |
||
− | |||
− | the catch o' yer lives, don't forget to thank..." His voice trails off as he spies Ssylrath's bear |
||
− | |||
− | outside. "Well, if that ain't the damnedest thing," he breathes, then looks into his mug and realizes |
||
− | |||
− | it's empty. "Gonna need another drink." |
||
− | |||
− | And with that, he stumbles back into the tavern. |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk was going to his wolf, which because of silly laws couldn't sit inside and get free scraps of |
||
− | |||
− | food, it also has most of his kit on it, so you know, there's that, and he's messing with it's ears |
||
− | |||
− | as he whispers quietly to it, apparently he talks to wolves. |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn waves back to the drunk and chuckles. 'Now lets see if this little tale he tells is true." |
||
− | |||
− | She says as she heads for the gate and heads north. She seems to relax a LOT more visibly as she |
||
− | |||
− | leaves the city. |
||
− | |||
− | After a quick side trip to grab the last of her gear, Takiyah catches up with the rest of the group |
||
− | |||
− | as they head out from the city. |
||
− | |||
− | Ssylrath nods to Vuk as he appears. "I thought that mussst be your friend there, not many wolves in |
||
− | |||
− | the city most of the time." His voice is harsh and sibilant. "How is your nessst keeping?" |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc slings his pack and earthbreaker onto his back and picks up his bow. He keeps on appearing |
||
− | |||
− | rather gruff and cross, whether he is in a city or in the wild. The presence of a trinket-covered |
||
− | |||
− | bear catches his attention, causing him to blink and turn to Farawyn, "A bear?" |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk will give a doff of his top hat to Ssyl. "That it is! That it is! Wonderful companion!" He says |
||
− | |||
− | and moves to pull him self up right onto it. He doesn't even need a saddle, Gobbers are rather known |
||
− | |||
− | for riding wolves after all. |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn looks to Ssylrath and his bear, then smiles. "yeah. A bear. Seems someone keeps rather good |
||
− | |||
− | care of it too." She says before looking to Ssylrath. "Join us for a hunt? We'll make sure your |
||
− | |||
− | friends have food after it's over." |
||
− | |||
− | The guards at the North Gate seem more than happy to let the ragtag group of goblins, lizardfolk, |
||
− | |||
− | bears, wolves, and everything else out of the city, waving incredulously as they set out upon the |
||
− | |||
− | road. The traffic into and out of the city has kept the way relatively clear of snow, although either |
||
− | |||
− | side of the road is still blanketed in white. |
||
− | |||
− | Ssylrath grins toothily, his long tongue licking over his snout. "I'm always up for a hunt if Muddy |
||
− | |||
− | here is hungry, and Muddy is always hungry." He emphasizes by slapping the bear on the shoulder then |
||
− | |||
− | pulling himself into the saddle. "Meat is good, hunting honour the Green if done properly." He kicks |
||
− | |||
− | Muddy into movement, riding easily along. |
||
− | |||
− | Looking down at the arrival of another gobber, Duroc comments, "Gobbers are everywhere it seems." He |
||
− | |||
− | doesn't seem the most pleased, but he keeps on walking. Keeping an eye out for what may come. |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk bobs his head at Ssylrath's words. "Hunting in moderation helps keep the wilds in balance. Dana |
||
− | |||
− | allows us to hunt so we may have food, but does not wish us to cull to many, for it would hurt the |
||
− | |||
− | balance." |
||
− | |||
− | Once out of the city and near the forest, Ferawyn seems to say something in a strange language, to no |
||
− | |||
− | one in particular....or so it seems. A few seconds later, a tree moves, tearing up a bit of ground as |
||
− | |||
− | it lifts it's roots out of the ground and begins to walk in the woods, along with them. "Seems |
||
− | |||
− | Oakheart wants to come to......" |
||
− | |||
− | Takiyah looks at the various companions, then at her Reos-colored garments. "I certainly feel like |
||
− | |||
− | the odd one out," she quietly remarks with a chuckle. |
||
− | |||
− | Ssylrath stretches in the saddle, unarmored save for his scales. "I am glad that it is less cold than |
||
− | |||
− | it hasss been. Snow is not my friend." He looks around. "What are we hunting, then? Sssmall prey or |
||
− | |||
− | large?" He fiddles with the straps of a sling at his belt, and then at the handle of his long wooden |
||
− | |||
− | lance. |
||
− | |||
− | The travel is relatively easy, and after a few hours the woods thicken around the road. Dark copses |
||
− | |||
− | of snow-covered trees stand where open plain once was a few miles back, and in the distance the space |
||
− | |||
− | between those groves becomes smaller and smaller until it becomes one large forest. |
||
− | |||
− | Even at the edge of the wooded area, signs of animal life are all around - droppings, broken |
||
− | |||
− | underbrush, and other telltale indicators of creature life. |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk tends to range out from the party on his wolf, riding with his long gun cradled in his arms, the |
||
− | |||
− | hammer cocked part way back, ready to fire at a moment's notice. His wolf manages to kill a few field |
||
− | |||
− | mice every so often by diving into the snow, and Vuk doesn't seem inclined to stop it yet, it's |
||
− | |||
− | allowed to hunt, it's not going to go after any thing dangerous, but once they get closer, Vuk will |

||
− | |||
− | The wind shifts for a second, and carried upon it is a staccato, cackling noise. The noise is echoed |
||
− | |||
− | again and again, reverberating off the trees and rocks, the snow doing little to dull it. |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk instinctively ducks lower and keeps his long gun close. "Decay." He says quietly, see? Now |
||
− | |||
− | there's odd noises -and- bad things. "We should reconsider the nature of this hunt. I smell decay and |

− | Ferawyn sniffs at the air. "There was a horse up here.....it's been dead for a while, and something |

− | |||
− | Ssylrath tucks his sling away again and readies his lance instead. "Walking tree. I know them." He |

− | scans the forest around with care. "If it killed a horssse it is unlikely to flee, that makes hunting |
||

− | <OOC> Ferawyn says, "Since this is the forest, I have an 18 AC." |
||
− | |||
− | Amidst the cackling, another sound rises - a low, plaintive moan, which only sets off another wave of |
||
− | |||
− | cackles. From the sound of it, it's emanating a little ways to the east of the trail, over a small |
||
− | |||
− | hill. |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn says, "Sounds like it's from that way." She says pointing east. Not only for the group, but |

||
− | |||
− | Vuk is used to generally being coerced to investigate first, but this was dangerous, he was more at |

− | |||
− | home here, and he just fades away soundlessly to circle wide to find a vantage point to observe over |

− | the hill. Stupid dwarf, stupid elf. Thinking he can't be quiet, maybe he'll just go home! |

− | |||
− | A /giant/ moose is fallen in the center of a small clearing, notable for its shards of bone that |

||
− | |||
− | As an arrow firmly embeds itself into his compatriot's thigh, another gnoll grabs his spear and |
||
− | |||
− | charges headlong at the source of the attack with a mad laugh. The point of the weapon glances |
||
− | |||
− | harmlessly off the dwarf's armor, instead burying itself in the ground. |

||
− | |||
− | One of the other gnolls charges madly at Ssylrath, however he seems to miss the point of his lance. |
||
− | |||
− | That is, until it's buried in his chest and protruding from his back. |

− | |||

− | |||
− | <OOC> Findrago ooOOooOOoo. |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk was trying to shoot into a melee, and he was also trying to not shoot the rather insulting dwarf, |
||
− | |||
− | it causes his shot to go wide, furrowing into a tree beyond the fight. "This hunt is not |
||
− | |||
− | very..hunty." He isn't sure how to not yell 'There's gnolls trying to eat us.' with out sounding like |

− | |||
− | <OOC> Findrago says, "They moved to fight Duroc. 20 feet or so." |
||
− | |||
− | <OOC> Ferawyn says, "So he gets one attack. okay. and I'm casting call lightning." |
||
− | |||
− | Ssylrath levels his lance at the gnoll who threw a spear. "You will pay for what you have done to |
||
− | |||
− | this animal!" He charges, the lance going slightly wide but the bear burying it in an avalance of |
||
− | |||
− | claws and teeth. Blood goes everywhere. |

||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn is still standing at the top of the hill as her companions try to fight off the gnolls. |
||
− | |||
− | Oakheart, the sapling treant, turns it's fury upon one of the gnolls attacking duroc and in one swing |
||
− | |||
− | and SMASH, the gnoll goes from laughing to non-existant. The other one, with the arrow in it's knee, |
||
− | |||
− | gets a look from Ferawyn after she finishes chanting, electricity from the sky. "you should not have |
||
− | |||
− | angered gilead by torturing an animal." She says.....and LOUDly snaps her fingers. The crack of her |
||
− | |||
− | finger snap turns into a BOOM from a lightning strike.....right into the arrow from Duroc. The |
||
− | |||
− | smoking gnolls falls dead next to the moose, and Oakheart looks to make sure all is now safe. |
||
− | |||
− | especially since Oakheart is a LOT taller than the rest of them. |

||
− | |||
− | GAME: Vuk rolls perception: (4)+12: 16 |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk waits till the gnolls are truly dead, and then moves in towards the carnage, his wolf growls |
||
− | |||
− | about it, it reeks here. "We should burn the remains." |
||
− | |||
− | GAME: Takiyah rolls Perception: (1)+6: 7 |
||
− | |||
− | Ssylrath speaks up. "No, even carrion-eaters are good meat if you are careful. Killing without need |
||
− | |||
− | makes us as bad as them." He swings out of the saddle and pokes one with his clawed foot. "I will |
||
− | |||
− | deal with them if you do not wish to." |
||
− | |||
− | GAME: Ferawyn rolls perception: (5)+14: 19 |
||
− | |||
− | As Duroc was getting ready to deal with the two gnolls that attempted to skewer him when a treant |
||
− | |||
− | kills one and a bolt of lightning stikes the other. A few blinks later and the confusion dissipates |
||
− | |||
− | he says, "Oi!" He grumbles, "I ain't eating no gnoll, ye can have them if you want." |
||
− | |||
− | You paged (Ferawyn, Ssylrath) with 'As you're regrouping fromthe battle, you notice that one of the |
||
− | |||
− | gnoll bodies is missing... the first one that the treant mauled to death. There are marks in the snow |
||
− | |||
− | indicating that it was likely dragged intot he nearby underbrush, and in the distance you think you |
||
− | |||
− | can see a larger humanoid figure striding through the woods with something over its shoulder... then |
||
− | |||
− | disappear into the woodline.' |
||
− | |||
− | Takiyah carefully looks around, but her attention is drawn to the giant moose. "That... is a big |
||
− | |||
− | moose. If I pattern the mana-pistons off of its muscles, I might be able to get better lifting |
||
− | |||
− | strength on those belts," she muses. |
||
− | |||
− | <OOC> Findrago says, "Okay, folks, feel free to RP amongst yourselves if you'd like... I've got the |
||
− | |||
− | log running, but I need to step away for a bit, so I'm going to call the "adventure" part of the PrP |
||
− | |||
− | finished here." |
||
− | |||
− | <OOC> Findrago says, "Don't forget to +nom your buddies for RP. And thanks for bearing with me - this |
||
− | |||
− | was actually my first PrP. :)" |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk is -not- eating gnolls. "If you wish to try and butcher the moose, by all means. I meant we |
||
− | |||
− | should burn the gnolls and perhaps look for their lair. They surely would have had one close to |
||
− | |||
− | here." He points out.."Perhaps they even carried gems on their persons." He makes no move to search |
||
− | |||
− | them. |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn quietly walks down from the hill and smiles to Takiyah. "Thank you for your help." She says |
||
− | |||
− | softly before she looks to the others. "Put the carcasses together. They'll bring the carrion eaters |
||
− | |||
− | to take care of the scraps." She then sighs a bit and pats Oakheart on the leg, noticing that one of |
||
− | |||
− | the gnoll bodies is missing. "Hmm.....we may have more trouble later from these guys." She says |
||
− | |||
− | softly. "I think we should head back. I'm sure we can find a few rabbits to eat on the way." |
||
− | |||
− | <OOC> Findrago says, "As a side note... the "horsemeat" smell some people got is because the gnolls |
||
− | |||
− | have strips of horsemeat under their cloaks to use for rations. The cloaks are also the things that |
||
− | |||
− | smell like pee. Gnolls are frighteningly unhygenic. :)" |
||
− | |||
− | Ssylrath crouches down and searches the gnolls quickly, pulling out anything of value and then |
||
− | |||
− | starting on any garments they had on. "Muddy and I will bring honor to these creatures that they did |
||
− | |||
− | not have in life." He seems undisturbed by the smell, perhaps because his nostrils seem to have |
||
− | |||
− | closed up completely. |
||
− | |||
− | Ferawyn places a hand upon Duroc and Ssylrath. "As for you two, if I may seak with you both on the |
||
− | |||
− | way back. If you both follow the ways of nature as i do, and wish to protect it, I may have a loose |
||
− | |||
− | group of people you may wish to meet that have the same ideals. Interested?" |
||
− | |||
− | "We can talk, we can talk." Duroc says as he readies himself to depart. He begins making his way back |
||
− | |||
− | to town to speak with the others. |
||
− | |||
− | Vuk is all for finding -not- corrupted filthy game, and he sure isn't eating any gnolls. "Yes yes, I |
||
− | |||
− | will keep my ears open for further reports, hopefully they were not part of a larger band. I do not |
||
− | |||
− | wish to think of the effects of many upon the local wild life.." |
||
− | |||
− | Ssylrath pulls out a skinning knife. "I'll deal with these, I understand if nobody else wants to join |
||
− | |||
− | me." |
||
− | |||
− | Duroc takes a seat, and tries to tend to his equipment, and maybe try to even catch his breath, it |
||
− | |||
− | happens when you have lightning flash in front of you and see a treant whallop a gnoll to death. |
||
− | |||
− | Ssylrath finishes butchering the gnolls and makes sure the moose is similarly dealt with. He packs up |
||
− | |||
− | everyone of any use into his saddlebags. |
