Panic grips you. You run as fast as humanily possible out of this place and do not look back. As you run away you hear the screams of those left behind.
Insanity 1d5 ⇒ 4
You also gain 3 corruption from seeing the vile daemon spawns.
I would like to sell the following items The Baton, Chain Blade, Knife and the Second shotgun I picked up the empty one. how much thrones would I get with that? "So what will it be? " Illidan is awaiting the merchants reply "I'll tell you want give me a fair price for these items while you ponder it over. If you can give me a good price I will do business with you if not. I will move on to the next." Illidan gives the merchant a list of the 4 items he wish to sell first
You both notice a man dressed in red robes with a flamer and chain sword strapped to his back. Obviously a member of the Ecclesiarchy of some sort (you can make Common Lore Ecclesiarchy to figure out what kind if you have it). He looks completely out of place here. You guys haven't seen one priest here yet since you got out of the cages.
Illidan you made your Merchant roll so you will be able to get 50% of book price for the items you have and buy new items at 75% of book cost for common quality.
You wait around nervously still a bit shaken from your encounter with the daemons. No one comes to the shelter and the daemons do not seem to chase you down.
There isn't much in this place except a few cans with some edible soup foods and some improvised weapons like lead pips and sharp objects.
Constantine the man you have noticed that is covered in tattered armor and blood approaches you and asks "what brings you to this place" while the other still appears to be making deals with the merchants.
I assume this is the priest right? "I seek information Brother. I am simply analyzing my options while my companion procures some wares. Perhaps we can help each other, what is it you seek?" Auraxis scans the crowd to see if anyone is watching the exchange too intently.
I want to find out/do the following things once the conversation with Constantine is concluded:
Who is the Spider Bride?
Who is Gabriel Chase?
Visit Ashtear Starport just to look around and check on security and to see if we can find the Inquisitor's ship.
Who or what is the Widower?
What is the Steel Clock?
Visit the Chancel for more background on our masked foes (if possible).
"Hail, and well met! I am sure you do not get this often, but you are a sight for sore eyes in this sea of sin! Nevertheless, the God-Emperor has brought us together, so we must have some common goals!!
He breaks out into a rousing song, about the God-Emperor, and killing heretics. Even going as far to sing to some of the people walking by about how they will be flayed alive for their sins!!
My apologies, sometimes I am filled with the word! Where are my manners, I am Brother Constantine!! I seem to have lost my Inquisitor! But right now, I am interested in hearing the tale of you and your friend over there!
1d100 ⇒ 8vs. 45 perform (sing) Singing:"And the God-Emperor said burn the unclean, and he burned you, and you, and you, and YOU!!!!"
He starts to calm down
"Inquisitor Karkalla of the Ordo Xenos he is! Went missing recently, and I have not been able to find anyone. I went out to burn some heretics and I come back to find everyone gone! But the fates have smiled upon me this day and brought me a brother at arms! And his lowly squire over there!! Tell me, what be your names brother?!?!?!
illidan purchase a few items
Autogun, with sliencer and red dot scope. A backpack with a strummer. Respirator mask. Photo visor. Micro bead. Data slate. Man stopper bullets 30. And 20 regular bullets.
illidan regroups with Auraxis and priest "It took some doing but I got the supplies I needed." illidan finds another member among our two man cell." who is this rookie we have here sir"
question the inquisitor the priest is talking about is that the one that I have the rosett from.
You have 35 thrones left over from your purchases. Did Auraxis want to sell anything through you Illidan? Can get same deals for him as well with you as proxy.
Yes the inquisitor name is the same one you guys saw mangled and dead in the pits.
You can get 48 thrones for the Shotgun and Axe. Probably won't be able to get anything better for armor right now. Maybe get some better ammo for the hand cannon you have?
"Either of you two looking to buy or trade some wares I was able to get some good deals from this vendor." illidan flashes the content of his backpack and informs then of the deal I was able to obtain what ya maggots looking to do?!?
can I get an addition % for bring the vendors more business?
"Purge the unclean of course!!!! Come friends, let us get out of this mire of miscreants before someone else gets cleansed. Hmmm, Mire of Miscreants, I like that, I shall name my next tune that!! Come, follow me! He begins to wade out of the crowd, knocking into as many people as he can, and yelling at them! He motions for you to follow
"Little man?!?!?! I will have you know that the voice of the God-Emperor sings through me! Perhaps even your heathen ears take something away from this experience! Unless of course you are a heretic. Youre not a heretic, are you??? He laughs maniacally
The big guy looks confused as your speak to him. He obviously isn't to bright and lets out a nice big laugh showing some teeth missing obviously from fights over the years and slaps Constantine on the back.
"Your a funny man! I'll let you live today now get going little man."
"Clearly killing you would bring you to a better place. You belong here, among the filth! Good day simpleton!" Constantine takes the oafs hand off his shoulder, and pulls out a rag from his pocket. He symbolically wipes his shoulder off where he was touched.
"Ugh, riff-raff. Let us get going before people start dying!"
The priest in red robes who calls himself Brother Constantine lead Illidan and Auraxis through the streets out of the Arena Promenade heading west toward the Shattered Palaces. The streets get much quieter out here and you are finally all alone in an alley with very dim lights at the far end.
It's getting rather late now for you guys. Illidan and Auraxis you feel the fatigue really starting to kick in now. Make toughness checks to stay awake. Your both starving.
Brother Constantine you can tell these 2 are very famished.
"You two look like you have seen better days! I am going to take you back to my place and feed you and give you a place to sleep. Also, we can talk! Does this sound good?"
{Toughness Check} 1d100 ⇒ 4 vs 40
"A meal and a cot, sounds mighty fine soilder." Illidan follows the priest to unknown location Thinks to himself .oO(He's as good a stranger to follow on an unknown planet as anyone else)
"I have not been here very long. I was moved to this remote area for some tactics that were deemed a bit "harsh" by my superiors. I still maintain that that school was a heretic hideout, which is why I had to burn it down. Looking back now, I think the old Inquisitor I served was tainted. How else can you explain how my actions could be deemed harsh?? I sing the songs of the God-Emperor!
Constantine then breaks out into a song, you think is titled Tainted Inquisitor:
Once I ran to you
Now I'll run from you
This tainted Inquisitor you've given
I've given all a man could give him
Take my blood and sweat and tears and then send me to some awful backwater planet to stop some jackal masked heretic that is apparently doing something wrong, but I digress......
Oh...Tainted Inquisitor
Tainted Inquisitor
illidan awakens and lays all his belongings out taking account of his belongings double checking his ammo and weapons. Cleaning the Rosett from the inquisitor
" So Auraxis what's our next move. Is the Priest to accompany us? looks to the priest "now that you are seperated from your party what plans do you have for your mission?
