K-Nut Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Althior glances back at the Hatchling in Hoke's shoulder. Perhaps his Dragon Slaying days weren't over entirely. He shifted his attention back to the door, instead melting the lock instead of the hinges.
Flare Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 "Subtly entering is surely a wiser choice of action, dear Hokey pants." Benji winks.
UsernameMDM Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 "Subtly entering is surely a wiser choice of action, dear Hokey pants." Benji winks. "Tried that, but the door was locked. Since when has subtly become your strong point?" Hoke says with a wink. Hoke slowly and quietly opens the door.
Flare Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 "Eh, well, eh..." Benji starts to mumble and frown. "Well at least my strong point isn't being stupid." Benji winks mischeviously, smirking.
UsernameMDM Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 "Well, you know what they say about bravery and stupidity," Hoke whispers back as he looks into the dressing room.
Waterbrick Down Posted October 30, 2014 Author Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) Althior melts the lock at the cost of 1 ether, because that isn't destruction of private property. Hoke pokes his head inside but quickly pulls it back out as a bottle comes whizzing at him hitting the wall beside the door and shattering. A voice from inside shouts out. "No visitors, can't you see my genius is suffering!" Oswald hisses from down below. "What is going on up there?" Edited October 30, 2014 by Waterbrick Down
K-Nut Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Althior steps back to see a bottle whizz past him. Artists... "Keep an eye on the door. We'll go in once the show is over as not to cause a disturbance. If he runs, we know he's our guy,"
Flare Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 "We're here to help you with your suffering, sir." Benji calls out before he enters the room.
Waterbrick Down Posted October 30, 2014 Author Posted October 30, 2014 Benji takes a bottle to the snout (Bleeding 5) as he enters the room. "I said no visitors."
UsernameMDM Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) "I said no visitors." Hoke follows Benji into the room with his shield raised. Hoke uses Diplomacy. "We aren't visitors. We are here at the behest of the Town Watch. There is a violent criminal about, and we are just making sure all of the actors here in the theatre are safe for tonight's performance. Are you ok this evening?" From the spot he is in, Hoke searches Mando for any signs of blood, cuts/scrapes or bruises. He also checks the room for any incriminating evidence.

K-Nut Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Althior thrusts Finnegan into the room in front of him as a "meat" shield. "Time to make him an offer he can't refuse then..." Althior gives Finnegan an inquisitive look "Hey, someone had to say it," He stands in the back of the room as he watches his two companions bicker with the actor. And he thought he had an enormous ego.
Waterbrick Down Posted October 31, 2014 Author Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) "OK? My critics are tearing me to pieces and I'm supposed to be OK? You try being Amadea and Melodion's greatest gift to Olgeia!" Hoke can't see any signs of blood or struggle but then again Barlin is laying on his couch. Edited October 31, 2014 by Waterbrick Down
K-Nut Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Althior makes his way towards the gold bottle on the left, checking its contents.
UsernameMDM Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Hoke uses Diplomacy. "Acting is a tough job, my good sir, and the critics can be harsh, but let these fires forge you into a stronger actor." Hoke edges closer to Mando. "Perhaps you would feel better if we escorted you outside for some fresh air, and we can discuss your long list of successful performances."
Waterbrick Down Posted October 31, 2014 Author Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) Althior makes his way towards the gold bottle on the left, checking its contents. Althior identifies the contents of the bottle as a: Heady Perfume - Makes non-humanoid monsters avoid attacking the party unless provoked. Effect lasts for one day or night before wearing out. Hoke uses Diplomacy. "Acting is a tough job, my good sir, and the critics can be harsh, but let these fires forge you into a stronger actor." Hoke edges closer to Mando. "Perhaps you would feel better if we escorted you outside for some fresh air, and we can discuss your long list of successful performances." "You know, you're right *hic* They don't deserve me and I could use a stiff drink right about now. I know this wonderful place up the street, good drinks, good girls, what do you say?" Edited October 31, 2014 by Waterbrick Down
Flare Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Benji quickly drinks a potion and then moves closer to the mad elf. "Hey, you got anything... Unusual, to drink around this place? I'm a thrill seeker myself."
UsernameMDM Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Hoke looks through the clothes rack as Benji asks his questions.

I know this wonderful place up the street, good drinks, good girls, what do you say?" Hoke helps Mando to his feet, and gives him a discreet look over, pretending to help him stand and get oriented.
Waterbrick Down Posted November 1, 2014 Author Posted November 1, 2014 Benji quickly drinks a potion and then moves closer to the mad elf. "Hey, you got anything... Unusual, to drink around this place? I'm a thrill seeker myself." Benji is restored to full health. "No, but if you follow me, my fine fellow I'll show you where there is." Hoke looks through the clothes rack as Benji asks his questions. Aside from costumes, Hoke notes nothing unusual or of remarkable value. Hoke helps Mando to his feet, and gives him a discreet look over, pretending to help him stand and get oriented. Hoke doesn't notice any wounds or unusual marks on Barlin. "So shall we be off?"
Flare Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 OoC: Sorry for my absence in the last 36 hours or so. "Wait buddy, are you supposed to be acting now? Maybe we could hang out after your performance. I mean you seem like a pretty cool dude and I wouldn't want to get you in trouble."
K-Nut Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 Althior nods "Yes, it would be wise to wait until after your work here is done. Don't need Wigglepike on our tails. You may not be appreciated here, but you don't need to lose this line of work. It's providing a roof over your head at least,"
Waterbrick Down Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 "Pfff...I don't have anything left but the bows, let the understudy stand in. They don't appreciate me anyways. Jacob, Christian, tell Oswald I'm going out with my real fans. He can find me at The Lotus."
K-Nut Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Assuming there is no opposition to his departure, Althior follows Barlin to the bar.
