Salamae is gracious to those who have welcomed her, but remains mostly silent through the meal. She observes the proceedings around her carefully, and waits for an opportunity to present the "gift".
Sense Motive 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15
Yes I'm fine, just had my mind somewhere else for a moment, now let's meet that beautiful wife of yours and congratulations as he looks around Magnificent party and maybe I might meet someone interesting around here for my self
Now that you are all here you can also take some liberty to creat a situation where you introduce yourself to eachother
Ser Archey is making his way downstairs with Ser Orten when Salamae stops you to present Orten with a gift.Uh, Thanks my dear, You did not have too He says rather shocked and dismissive.
Salamae:
He seems truly shocked to recieve a gift from you, he probably has no idea it isnt from you. The man next to Orten seems nervous
"It is not my gift, my lord. I was... intimidated into bringing it to you by a crass young knight." She describes the man who insisted she bring the gift. "I hope it is not something deadly or dangerous. Or some vendetta gift that would cause harm or suffering."
She turns to Ser Archey.
"The same of you, ser knight. I am Salamae, a servant of the Seven."
Good Master Rog took ill after a bandit attack upon the road. Thank the gods, both old and new, that we were able to treat him enough until we got to a proper healer here in the city.
"I'm really enjoying this party" as Gillem looks around to see if he recognizes any other guest or something unusual.
Perception 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
You are really enjoying yourself. Make a will save at the good 'ol -2 circumstance.
Salamae:
Orten looks confused for a second, than embaressed. Oh my, well I am sure it is all part of some prank or joke. I will take this thank you Sister. Please make yourself at home, and I am sorry for any trouble this might have caused you. I assume you did not try to look in the package
Weyland:
Ser Orten seems hastened by recieving the gift to go down to the cellar. When you get there he closes the door and lights a candle. I wished he would have been more discrete. I guess not all of our companions can have your gifts Ser Achley. Well I guess I can call you fox now that we are away from prying eyes and ears. So is it done? You went to the farm and made sure there were no traces left yes?All of this conversation has made you forget about your"wife" who seemed to sleep away casually.
Tarris:
As you are speaking to the Lady, there is some commotion at the door. You can not be Ser Achley I have already allowed him and his wife entry, guards! The Maester says to a wounded man at the door. You look up and see the man who shot Rog.
Rumor has it she is in Kings Landing somewhere.Orten opens the package given to him by the Septa. It is a dagger.[can roll appraise for more information on it] I think you know what to do with this. He says holding it up.
Slowly make my way around him, looking for men-at-arms of the House. As I approach the man call out, Pardon ser but I feel you may have lost something upon the road. Hand him the arrow from Rog, cleaned of poison of course.
Yes, well I supposed you did well at the Dannetts. You get half now and half when you return Iris and plant the dagger. He hands you a sack of gold coins, 600 gold coins.
Tarris:
You! how what. THIS MAN IS AN ENEMY OF HOUSE LUGUS! He says loudly, clearly caught off guard. Lets roll intrigue for this unless you want to make it physical. Choose what skill you want to do, do you want to convince others he is at fault?(diplomacy) Do you want to intimidate him? Or lie?(bluff). Just some options.You get +2 Circumstance for having the Arrow and mentioning Rog
Salamae:
Very good. You also notice a commotion at the Door. The northern lad Tarris is having a bit of an arguement with someone claiming to be Ser Archey.
House Lugus is it? When you attacked us at the Dannet farmstead you wore no such heraldry. You simply fired arrows, poison arrows hold up the arrow for the gathering to see from the treeline. You nearly killed the merchant Rog, whom I was traveling with. He could not attend tonight due to the poison and the wound still inflicting him, so I came in his stead. Now ser explain your actions.
"It is a pleasure doing business with an honorable man such as yourself. I am going to collect my wife and enjoy this fabulous feast. On the morrow I will begin my search".
Archley heads up the stairs to mingle with the crowd. I would like to locate Daisy first if possible, if not I will locate Salamae.
You do not locate Daisy. You do see Tarris in an argument with someone claiming to be Ser Archey.
Since all can hear the conversation now
I, um. Orten you foul plotter you hath decieved me! He says and turns to run out the door. normaly you roll composure damage as well as your skill, but even minimum should suffice so we will just go with that
Lets roll some initatives just to get everyone organized.
Gillem face sours for a moment when the man from House Blount passes by "I guess I can't be finicky about the people to assist to a party not of my own..." as he stares at the man of House Blount.
Perception to notice any other thing 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Hearing a commotion from one side of the party, Salamae leans on her ceremonial staff and heads toward the noise. Her senses alert for the danger that grows in the area.
I have no problem with DM rolling initiative if it will make things go faster.
Sweet Daisy - 30
True Fox(Ser Achley?)- 23
Tarris-20
Ser Orten- 19
Ser Weyland(Ser Achley) -16
Salamae-3
Gillem-Delay
The True Fox makes a full withdrawl and is running away through king's landing.
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13 Ser Orten is still confused by all of this. Who was that man, what is the meaning of this?Men go get him no one disturbs my feast in such a manner and should get away with it. He says turning to his men.
Weyland reaches out to him and grabs him by the arm, "Come with me now Ser, if you wish to avoid further troubles!" I lean into him and whisper, "We should not speak with the crowd about us, come let us find privacy and discuss how to get you out of this mess".
Let me know if I need to make a check of some kind here.
Allright, I need some explainations and a drink. Come to me manor just outside of Lion's Gate. There we can have some privacy and talk1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 your perception.
The rest of you see Ser Achley talking to, um Ser Achley? And the two start to walk off.
"This is all very strange. What other dangers lurk in this night? Granted, there is always the danger of one or another scheme to move one lord or lady into power... but why do things feel so different now."
Salamae muses quietly to herself, not really expecting an answer.
"Court can be sometimes more dangerous than a battlefield, because you can't really see your foe sometimes" as I listen to Tarris This is if I'm close enough to Tarris and Salamae following the scene
No problem, you can be as close as you want. If no one is going to prevent Ser Weyland AKA Ser Achley from leaving with Ser Achley I will continue with them away and the party continueing.
Well, I , ah, On with the festivities I think that man had to much to drink let it not damper our spirits Ser Orten says though his face is clearly concerned.
The Wounded man walks slowly. When you go into an ally with him he does not protest. I do not know what trickery you intend, but I will not live soon to care. I had hoped to recieve some aid at house Lugus, but that hope is gone. Roll a Heal check if you want to determin more about his condition.
"I intend no trickery Ser. I simply wished to speak with you in private. I have not the time to journey to your Manse so once we speak here we will part ways.
If you are so ill as to no longer care for life then tell me true what you did for them and what you believe they will do for you. Do you know why the Lugus had a rivalry with Dannett?"
I don't have Heal trained but here goes. 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18
