James as darvin sees the sauntering figure and pulls the hammer back on his pistol, he bellows some choice words towards the lanky figure "Foul Creature, the Aspis Consortium demands satisfaction, and you will identify yourself at once"
Yes, let's shatter them!
" Is it ever just a delivery?"
"I'll pay the 50, so what do you know sir?" I wonder why I was not asked to pick the lock, I'm almost as good as Shel, probably would have saved us some gold to boot
" Max where would a Dandy like yourself buy a hat? " Darvin chuckles as he speaks.
"Let us find a place to relieve ourselves Happy"
"Then Celvan's place is where we are headed"
"They would rightfully believe that the Aspis Consortium are a bunch of no good dirty liars. Not to mention cowards for running away."
"So what's the plan? Are we going to make the Lissalan's think the Aspis consortium are inept? Or are we going to go in there guns blazing?"
" No need to unsheath the stalagmite Happy Stone, We should really be taking our leave Mr. Jenk." With that Darvin attempts to escort the Oread out of the room. In a stern voice saying "We will pee on the way!!"
James as Darvin thinks to himself Well Sad Rock should have no problem, leaving a lasting Aspis impression on the cult members. With his constant scratch and sniff behavior. We should seem as inept as possible to dissuade the alliance.
"We need to pay Mr. Jenk a visit, no?"
Trying to play up his Aspis Role "Here's the damn map Jafar, we need to see the "boss" at the Barracuda Cartage sometime this evening ladies." Leave this group for their mother to find, after all they are used to waiting for her.
"Enough flapping of the gums. We need to be taking our leave.
Besmara is a pirate lady or something right?
"I'm confused Akbar, why do we need a replica?"
Two down.
Anxious to forget the mishap at the previous location, Darvin accepts a glass of the darker wine
Smells like Maximo's perfume, I thought he took a vow of chastity. A quizzical look overcomes the disguised James's face.
"Anybody know anything about the silken veil?"
Darvin waits for the rest of his group outside.
James as Darvin exits the temple in a huff muttering something about mud babies on his way out.
"Uh sorry, I was just practicing a uhhh performance, you know trying to show off a bit for the ladies. I didn't even have the hammer pulled back. In all honesty I must confess I was a little jealous in the interest you showed my friend Happy over there. But in any event a win is a win is it not?" Darvin is flush with a mixture of anger & embarrassment, and slowly holsters his pistol. Restart??? The cup should not even be available for a prize and Kilian and Maximo want to start over. Aspis consortium we are not...
Dazzling Display: Pistol Intimidate check to demoralize can affect those within 30' who see you.
Darvin will wait until some of the participants are lifting more impressive furniture before beginning his attempt to shake them.
Darvin is not much of a drinker so he will attempt to intimidate the other competitors with a dazzling display. In hopes that they will forfeit.
I hate singing
Darvin will remain outside by the door, observing any odd suspects approaching
uhhh just a run of the mill Aspis mercenary sir James offers the Rock Man a fist bump and a shrug of the shoulders. attack those that already being assaulted? Oh right Qadiran
Once back on the street I give happy stone his badge back.
hmmm no badge, I'm in the back I'll see if I can get away without showing one. Think quick. Darvin watches for a visual queue from the bearded man to see if he acknowledges Happy Stones badge. A. If I notice any acknowledgement, I attempt to sleight of hand Happy Stones badge. While the man checks the others. B. If I do not notice any acknowledgement I wait to be quizzed about my lack of a badge, then attempt to sleight it after a well timed distraction by an ally. (looking at you Taldan folks)
Following Shel's lead, James assumes his position as the last man ascending the stairs.
Trying to remain as anonymous as possible, James muses to himself Here we go
"Well Ma'am you grew up in elsewhere, so you have not been singing these songs since your childhood like the good "Qidaran" and myself."
"The Oppara kid? I kind of like it."
I lack an Aspis badge, so I will go as Darvin Whitestag.
"Damn, I hate being the tie breaker, I'm sure there will be an alehouse with sailors singing their drinking songs somewhere close. I'm sure we could blend right in. Besides it would do us good to get out for a bit" I need to get out of here, I'm the only one without a badge I need to think of something quick.
What's that smell?
I hate rain.
We are so getting busted. "Darvin remains quiet, and keeps a vigilant lookout for eavesdroppers, and unsavory locals approaching"
I wish we could just hire a chorus "pseudodragon sounds good to me."
*sigh* "Very well Akabar"
"Fantastic idea!"
When "Darvin" finally gets Shel & Akbar together in his quarters Max & Shel:
Before being dispatched on the mission to assist Joadrik, I was summoned by Lady Gloriana Morilla. She told me that Varisia is a new field ready for planting the seeds of aristocracy. She said something about rubbing elbows, glad handing and so forth but the request I found strange was that she asked that If we gain the attention of a large crowd, that we lead them in one of our patriotic tunes, she recommended either 'Forests and Fields of Noble Taldor,' or 'Gilded Oppara'. She thinks that if we do this with a gleeful countenance and enthusiastic fervor, that we will plant seeds that will bloom in this fertile new land. "Don't get me wrong, I am as much a patriot as can be, but singing and dancing? I think her powdered wig may be on a bit too tight. Can you guys help me? For the empires sake.
While chekcing out Magnimar with Sad Rock, James stopped to get a shave *shutters*, and a close short haircut. When he approaches the officer of the deck on the ship. "Darvin Whitestag, requests permission to come aboard." |
