As the sun rises over Duneville, a tumbleweed blows across the street. Music and shouts arise from the pub. A man in a brown coat and a grey vest walks up to you. If yall are here to cause trouble, then you've come to the wrong town. He says.
He chuckles as he looks the man up and down
"The only trouble is magic trouble. And I, Talin Moonscar, plan to make such troubles a thing of the past"
Talin's name was no coincidence. He had a Cheshire moon scar across his face. Forming part of his smile as he smirks. He had a long coat. Well made armour and a long, engraved musket slung across his back. A chain that was on his back seem to hint it was attached to something hidden under his clothes. Sleep black hair and piercing green eyes bore into the man opposite him
"I'm here to find people that have already caused trouble." He pulls out a stack of bounty posters. "Nobody wants them around." He wears no coat, no armor. A single gun rests at his hip, old but serviceable. He rides no horse, but doesn't have a problem keeping up with one. His glance presents no challenge, but doesn't seem cowed.
Estelle grins. "My my, that's a warm welcome." She shifts the musket strapped to her back and shakes her head "I ain't here for any theatrics, had enough of that for one lifetime. Just lookin' to make my way is all. Maybe build some things that folks can use." Despite the travel through the desert she still has oil and grease stains on herself. Her goggles are pushed up on her forehead, her hair messy beneath a wide and pushed-back hat. She frowns at the man approaching, "Y'all had trouble here of late?"
Trouble? The man chuckles. We got plenty o' that! I could name a whole list o' outlaws I been huntin' for years! Where would you like me to start?
"If it's that long of a list, perhaps we should find someplace more comfortable to go over it." offers Anathiel.

There is a private room within the pub. The man says.
"That sounds like a good idea. Away from prying eyes and curious loose ears. Lead the way" he motions foe the man to take the lead

The man leads the way through the loud pub into a private room. A few people glance at you, see the man, and hurriedly glance away.
As he walks, he notices those that look away, seeing if he recognizes any of them.
None of the men are wanted criminals that you know of.
"You seem to be one to subvert glances...friend. may I inquire why?" he asks as he continues to follow the man to where they were to be seated
-Posted with Wayfinder
I am the law in this town. He says. Most of these people have seen a close friend or associate locked up by my hands.
"I understand the feeling. Being new and wanting to clean up the mess. People think you are the villain. But staying the course is more important than to keep everyone happy"
-Posted with Wayfinder
The man nods.
Is anybody there besides Talin?
"So are there lots of ne'er-do-well's in this town, or is this just where they all drink?" he asks.
This 'ere pub is the finest in the whole west! The man says, as if it were obvious. Of course everybody drinks 'ere.
"So, what sort of trouble do you have?" he asks.
This land is full of bandits he says.
"As per usual. But I am sure you can be more descriptive about them." he raises an eyebrow at the man
-Posted with Wayfinder
Sorry I haven't been active. Work has been making it hard.
Most o' the bandits report to the same leader - Sharpspeare. If you take 'im out, then the bandits should be at bay for a while.
"Then this Sharpspear is our quarry. Good to know. And we have a name. Do we have a description?" he takes out his note book
-Posted with Wayfinder
"On top of the description, a location and known associates would be helpful," adds Anathiel.
-Posted with Wayfinder
Looks like I forgot to warn you I would be busy.
Sharpspeare is supposed to be real short. And nobody knows where his base is. Or at least, the entire address. Caught an' tortured a man who claimed to be working for im', said all he knew was that he was in a cave. 'Which cave?' I asks the man. 'No clue' e' says.
"We should have a talk with him then it seems. At least get a direction other way to narrow the search down"
-Posted with Wayfinder
Sure thing. The man gets up and walks towards the door.
Anathiel will finish his drink and get up to follow.
"Lead us to this informant of yours, so that we may try to loosen his tongue a little bit."

Sorry I forgot to mention that my end-of summer schedule would/will be so full. The eclipse + marching band filled up this last week, and early tomorrow I leave for another vacation until Saturday. See you all then. Sorry for the long waits this summer. This was by far the busiest summer of my whole life, and school is picking up after labor day which should mean consistent schedule. Fingers crossed.
The man leads you out the pub and across the dusty street to a imposing building with the large words "JAIL" written on it. Inside there are 3 large cells, each with 2 or 3 people in it. That's 'im the policeman says, pointing to someone in the back corner.
Talin nods and looks at his companions
"Lets get this over with, shall we?"

Looks like it's just you, Talin. Do you want to do a solo game?
We can do so yes. But I will have to rework my character. Maybe make a new one. Since this build was designed to aid.
-Posted with Wayfinder
That's fine with me. Same build rules. Sorry I was quiet for so long. My schedule is settling so I can start posting now. Probably not more than 3-4 days a week, though.
No worries. Will build char hopefully tonight
-Posted with Wayfinder
Or we could move you to the other table, if that would make things easier.
You're probably like "why didn't you say so sooner! I just slaved over a new build!" and it's because I just realized it.
Let me have a look. And I'll see if my build fits. Been hectic. Spring/summer storms. Lots of outages. Etc. So I have been busy :P
-Posted with Wayfinder
is your schedule too busy? or is it the storms
Im back. lets continue in PM, my game updates have been spotty
