Rescue at Rivenroar

[Daggar]

At the Antler and Thistle...

[Daggar]

Walking into the tavern, there is a man behind the bar and a half dozen or so other patrons, mostly human. There is a table in the back with three men playing cards. There is a dwarf at the bar speaking with the bartender.

((Assuming I am with Sasha. Is there a built in dice roller on this? if so how do I use it?))

"I'm starving, and I this looks to be as good a place as any to get a bite."

Deimos quietly seats himself beside the dwarf, giving him a quick, but thorough, look over. The Shadar-kai was always looking for an easy mark, and if this dwarf happened to have a coinpurse dangling from his belt, the distraction the bartender was providing might be ample enough to relieve him of it.

(OOC: Am I the dwarf? Lol I just want to make sure before I saunter in and start making a racket.)

((If you click the "reply" button rather than just doing the quick reply box it will take you to an advanced message thing. At the right under the "colors" drop down tab is an icon of a d6. If you click it it types out "dice=6" in [brackets]. You can also just type that. Change the 6 to whatever sided die you want it to be - 4, 8, 10, 12, 20, etc. - and if you want modifiers put +y. So a 1d20+5 would be "dice=20+5" only in brackets instead of parenthesis. It would look like this once you post.))

[dice=20+5]

Greth walks in with Mew circling his feet. He looks around for his friends that he is expecting. He walks up to the bar, and Mew jumps onto his shulder.

"Hello. Water please, and milk."

He immediately pats Mew on the head, and he lets out a chirping sound.[rand=3721828621346503532609262084588417618937240913515279443259350955]

Deimos' Perception check on the dwarf

[Daggar]

((Lucius is at the bar speaking with the bartender))

Deimos enters the tavern and walks to the bar seating himself next to the dwarf. The dwarf does, indeed, have a belt pouch. It looks to have coins in it.

Greth enters the tavern and recognizes the dwarf at the bar. There is a pale skinned humanoid sitting next to him. A female shifter stands at the bar a little behind the pale one. Greth follows Mew has the cat jumps on top of the bar. The bartender frowns a bit at the cat, but sets two wooden cups on the counter. One with water the other with milk.

[Madrius]

((So I want it to be known that Greth is pronouncing Lucius's name funny because he has an accent))

Greth nods at the bartender in thanks. He turns to the familiar faces

"Luscious! and Fuzzy Friend! Is good to see yous. Who is new pale friend?"

He looks the new person over a bit.

[dice=20+8] (Perception)[rand=0992061507422477785895193926994728217322845012535311501706019]

[s1n0rgy]

Deimos Quietly unsheaths his dagger and attempts to releave the dwarf of his coin purse

Thievery Check

[dice=20+10] <-- woah woah woah.... this was a 24 the first time [rand=06704516359604895167346118949353767077029682695871552697962615639]

[s1n0rgy]

((Alright, do to the botched roll attempt, I'm going to pretend I never did that, if thats alright with you. But I swear on my life the I rolled a 24 ))

The shadar-kai raises an eye at the mention of his skin color, and motions the bartender over.
He looks the gaunt green man over before turning back to the bar.

[jflo2415]

Lucius swivels around on his bar stool, although he knows that there's only one person who could be calling him "Luscious". He frowns briefly at the man sitting next to him that he didn't know, who was maybe just a little closer to him than he was comfortable with, and then turns his attention to Greth with a grunt and a shrug.

'Don't know, never seen 'im before," though there was a nagging familiarity about him. "How are you and yet cat doing tonight?" he asks Greth.

((sinorgy: From the sound of it you hit preview before posting. That is the way pretty much all message board rollers work, same as The Tangled Web. If you preview a post with a roll you get a new roll each preview or when you finally post it. Otherwise you could just hit preview until you got the roll you liked.

Plus it's pretty bad form to start the game by stealing from a party member.))

Ilikan strode into the bar, heading for the man behind the counter and spotting Greth, Lucius, and Sasha ((sounds like we all did a bit of mercing together)). With a nod to the assembled group he raised two fingers towards the bartender, "Two please," and tossed the worked some coin. He then picked up the two mugs of mead and moved behind his new friends standing instead of sitting in a long line. Seeing their eyes on his drinks he simply responded, "What? I've got two hands. I need to mugs." Taking a drink he continued, "That was a right riot, eh? You see that hairy one tripping over his own feet trying to get away? I think he wet himself before turning hide," he said with a laugh.

[jflo2415]

"Save some ale for the rest of us, Tiny." Lucius orders another mug from the bartender as well. "And sit down, will ya? Hurts my neck having to look up when I talk to you."

[Daggar]

((One built-in limitation to 4e is that roles are heavily emphasized, so party cooperation is necessary for survival. That being said, the party gold could end up in the pockets of the thief.))

((Once Sasha makes at least one post, we'll move on.))

[spazz451]

((That's ok. That just means the neck of the thief ends up in the hands of the party barbarian. };-)> ))

[Madrius]

Mew laps up some milk and trots across the bar to Lucius and begins rubbing up against him and purring.

"Mew is happy! Greth is alright. Don't understand why you like to meet up in cages like this." Greth shrugs.

[spazz451]

Iliak sighs as he turns to find a chair. Grabbing one from a table near by he pulls it up, the back facing the group. He sits down, his head still level with the rest of them even though his chair was about half the height. "Suppose I could use some time off my feet." He then proceeds to pull of one of his boots. Several small pebbles and a strange scent fall out.

"Because of this, my young friend!" Ilikan says, holding out one of his mugs to Greth.

Arden wrinkled his nose a bit as he entered the tavern, his black eyes easily piercing the dimly-lit and somewhat smoky room to find the people he was looking for seated at the bar. It was full of scruffy-looking but interesting folks, and the scholar supposed that he could afford to lower his standards a bit for the sake of new opportunities. It had become apparent that he could learn much more from people like these simple merchants, farmers, soldiers, and craftsmen than he could from his stuffy and self-aggrandizing colleagues back home, who had become far too complacent in their quest for knowledge.

Even if his first encounter with the natives had been somewhat... unfortunate. The very people he had come to this establishment to find had proven that not all were so unsavory. And he was determined not to let a bad start ruin his entire expedition.

"Ah, there you are! The saviors of the day!" he announced loudly and cheerfully, clapping the tallest one on the back as he approached and giving the bartender a disarming wink. "Another round for these heroes, if you please!"

[s1n0rgy]

Deimos eye'd the group that had gathered at the bar suspiciously. That eladrin... looks mighty familia- shit. No doubt about it these were the folks that ran through the bandit camp. The shadar-kai, in a fit of anxiousness, and impatience, hits the bar with his open hand. "Would it kill you to serve some hungry people around here?" The rogue asks with annoyance dripping off his words. Realizing this might draw attention to himself, he adds in a much brighter tone, "The lady here is a spot peckish. Show some manners."He finishes with a wink.

[spazz451]

Ilikan quickly downs his mead in anticipation for another.

"A welcoming like that deserves the same in kind." Ilikan says to the newcomer, clasping the man's forearm and giving it a firm shake. "You look to be the runner from the woods. What'd they have you in for? Supposin' you be worth a few marks from your clothes? You don't look ta be from aroun' here."
