Waterbrick Down Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 Ellaria blushes. "I haven't really been hanging out in any bars, save for Scheherazade's Saloon... I've always thought cursing was unbecoming of clerics, I guess." "Don't worry yer pretty head too much about it. Why nearly half of the Orcish clerics' hymnal is cursin'.." Skrall shoulders his equipment and brings up the rear of the party. Quote
Zepher Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 OoC: Scuba, this is in no way your fault as both Pandora and I failed to update before the quest, but the Bolero of Fire should be in her inventory instead of mine. Thank you so much! Boomingham quietly hands his deadly venom off to Nyx as he walks with the party. "Think you'd do better with it, dearest. My weapon is already plenty deadly... but don't go telling Ellaria I handed it off." Quote
Pandora Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 OoC: Scuba, this is in no way your fault as both Pandora and I failed to update before the quest, but the Bolero of Fire should be in her inventory instead of mine. Thank you so much! OoC: Hey! I did update, and posted a link. But I did forget the Bolero of Fire, though. Boomingham quietly hands his deadly venom off to Nyx as he walks with the party. "Think you'd do better with it, dearest. My weapon is already plenty deadly... but don't go telling Ellaria I handed it off." "Oh, thank you Larry, that's very sweet." Nyx smiles warmly at Boomingham as she takes the deadly venom and applies it to her Standard, walking by his side. Quote
Scubacarrot Posted March 6, 2014 Author Posted March 6, 2014 The party leaves, but suddenly they see moonlight reflected off metal. The party looks up. What does the party want to do? Quote
Sandy Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Ellaria sighs as he sees the dark-clad man staring down at them. "You saw what happened to the other people who tried to step on our way. Surely you are not as dumb as them? Just tell us what you want so we can all be on our way." Quote
CMP Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 "Er, I think that's actually Magenta, onna the infiltrators we're supposed to be contactin'. I think. Hard to tell under the mask." Quote
Scubacarrot Posted March 8, 2014 Author Posted March 8, 2014 "Magenta? Your memory is off. Gibbin. Welcome, Heroes. To Strivvi. I suggest we get right to it. There's a lot to do. Are you ready to follow me?" Quote
CMP Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 "Right, well....I'm sure whatever your name is it's close enough. I'm ready to head wherever, as long as you've checked for homicidal statues this time." Quote
Sandy Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 "Purple?" Ellaria asked, not having recognized the man at first. "You've changed out of your uniform, it seems. We are ready to hear the current status quo in this city. I'm afraid we just made it somewhat worse, unfortunately." Quote
Waterbrick Down Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 "I'm ready as well, what's going on with this soddin' city, seems twice as bad as last time we came round." Quote
Scubacarrot Posted March 9, 2014 Author Posted March 9, 2014 For a while, the heroes are lead through Strivvi by Purple, finally, they arrive at a familiar front. "Right... Welcome back, I guess. This place... It's a good thing you found it. It's been marvelous. Before we go in. I'm going to need you to hand in all your weapons... The place... reacts badly to it." Quote
Zepher Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 Boomingham is silent as he follows the member of the Watch. He eyes Purple's clothing warily. Finally they arrive at the safe house. "Hm. Is it the ghosts that give you a problem? I've been blessed by Pseudo myself, I don't think you have to worry much about his priests having an issue with me." Boomingham rests a hand gently on his weapons. "Or have you encountered different issues?" Quote
CMP Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 "....Damn it. Again? Really? Do ya' have any idea how many gallons of blood I lost the last time we were here? Why the hell should we go in without our weapons?" Quote
Waterbrick Down Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 "Can't say I see much of a difference between us goin' in with our weapons and us givin' ya our weapons and then you goin' in with us, friend." Quote
Scubacarrot Posted March 10, 2014 Author Posted March 10, 2014 "You'd have to forgive me for not taking a 'champion' seriously that can't even speak the name of their deity. I'd stash the weapons upstairs, before we go down the hatch. If you don't want to go in at all, I can't force you, but it's the best place to talk, this city has eyes and ears everywhere, but not there." Quote

"Ya, still ain't doin' a good job of explainin' why we ain't takin' weapons in there. If it's regarding the deity we got mixed up with last time, as long as we ain't touchin' anything, I thought we were fine." Quote
Zepher Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 "You'll have to forgive me for not taking you very seriously. You're talking in circles." Boomingham glances over at Skrall and then at Nyx. "We'll go in." Boomingham tosses his two swords to the man. "Lead away, Purple. But know I haven't forgotten that someone ratted us out last time, and I don't forgive betrayals." Quote
Scubacarrot Posted March 10, 2014 Author Posted March 10, 2014 "Those statues seem to not like weapons any more than being touched. It was a pain enough to smash them up to pieces last time, I decided not to question why they were back the next day, but fighting them again is something I can do without." Quote

"We dealt with 'em easy enough last time, plus we're all a bit more experienced this time around. It's up to Ellaria, but I ain't for partin' with my weapons, unless she wants us to. Just 'cause ya haven't been attacked in there by anything else yet, doesn't mean yer never goin' to be." Edited March 10, 2014 by Waterbrick Down Quote
Sandy Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 "I apologize, Purple, but my friends here are more inclined to the "smash through things"-kind of tactics instead of the stealthiness of your trade. But if you are sure we are better off without our weapons, then we will give them to you." Ellaria turns to the others and gives them a meaningful look. "Aren't we, boys and Nyx?" "But please remind me, Purple, what exactly are we looking for within this house?" Quote
Waterbrick Down Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Skrall grunts and begrudgingly hands over his weapons. "Ya don't recall the safe-house from our last stint here Ms. Ellaria? Apparently it's the only place free from prying eyes." Quote
Sandy Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 "Ya don't recall the safe-house from our last stint here Ms. Ellaria? Apparently it's the only place free from prying eyes." OoC: Only vaguely. "Ah, of course! This is the one with the creepy statues that came alive! Yes, we can talk more inside." Quote
Zepher Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Boomingham keeps his eyes on Ellaria as she talks to the Ogre, but saddles up besides Atramor and Nyx. "I said it once and I'll say it again - Purple in his band leave a foul taste in my mouth. Keep your ruby in hand, once you, Nyx? And you, boy, keep your eyes open." Quote
CMP Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 "I said it once and I'll say it again - Purple in his band leave a foul taste in my mouth. Keep your ruby in hand, once you, Nyx? And you, boy, keep your eyes open." "Always do." Atramor pulled out all his weapons, handing them over to Purple. "If the staff starts talkin' to you put it down and back away slowly." Quote
