Sajan stays quiet while listening to the story, and once he has eaten goes to his quarters for an early night's rest as he assumes that he will have to be up early.

Perception:
During the trip, Sajan seemed to be engrossed in his book, taking notes in the evening and seemed to be referring to these notes while riding during the day and asking Sly questions about the Green Belt and its inhabitants during rest stops.
Once at Fort Oleg, Sajan dismounts and follows behind Vik. "It is nice to meet you Svetlana, while we were not sent specifically to help out Fort Oleg, that does not mean that we cannot. Please tell us what is happening as we walk in, we are weary from the road, but we can see that your matter is pressing and I am sure our group, as unconventional as it may seem, will be able to help you and the rest of your companions here.'
While walking to the stables with Vik. No worries my friend, the family didn't 'loan' one to me either. I should have enough money for a second light horse. If you have enough money for a saddle, then we should be all set.
Eventually he will be able to talk Sly, he is still young.
Sorry about our friend here Sly, he is not use to dealing with someone smaller than him. We would be honored to accompany you back to the the Green belt. Let us pack our things and we will be on our way. Matbe as we walk you can tell us more about the biggies who squish you, the bad men, boggards, and even a bit about the undead. Sajan gets up, opens a fold in his cloak, and a small creature jumps onto the table. It has a reptilian head with a serpentine neck, attached to a flightless and featherless birds body, whiplike tail and strong powerful legs. Sly meet Kutan, Kutan Sly. He can't talk like you can sly, but he is very smart. I'm sure you will both get along fine Taking his attention away from the creatures on the table, Sjan looks at the rest of the party. Well if we have nothing else pending here, we might as well be going. Allie, I suggest that you tell your retinue now, as memory serves, you always come quite prepared and I am sure that they will need the extra time to get your things ready.
Sajan waves at the waiter for another plate. What can you tell us of the Stolen Lands? Or the Green belt as your people call it. Sajan makes a mental note to research more on the green belt at night.
Sajan comes down the stairs and joins Fionn, Vik, and their guest at the table waving at the waitress to bring him a plate of breakfast. Well who is this joining us for breakfast?
Sajan looks around. Well Fizz, were the last one it seems. Let us have a good piece of pie, and hit the sack. After finishing his pie and ale, sajan adjourns himself to his room to do some research on the inn, the towns history and any further possible connection to Cornash.
[b]Didn't notice much Allie, but I'm sure that with your graaaaand entrance anyone of note will come and find you.[b]
Sajan blushes at his stupidity. I guess I take, things a bit too seriously sometimes. My years at the academy were certainly not filled with friendly banter.
Sajan chuckles at Fionn's question They are all diamonds, you just have to find the one that shines the brightest and doesn't cut you while you hold it.
That's quite a flight, ouch!
Sajan in the hallway with his warrior companions speaks barely above a whisper. "She would get me in so much trouble when we were youngsters. Don't let the daft noble act fool you, she is like a viper that one. When you think that she is going to strike, she doesn't she retreats back lazily as if you weren't even there, and when you breathe a small sigh of relief, that is when she strikes. She knows the game much better than I, and probably better than most nobles. It might have something to do with the adoption, and trying to make her own place...But I digress" Sajan sits on a bench next to the door and listens patiently for the signal. "But even with how she got me in trouble, she is still like a sister to me. I just hope that her ambitions don't get the better of her."
I can't place that man, the name rings a bell, but I just can't remember unfortunately.
Sajan does not say much during the encounter with Cornash, but just nods at Fionn, waits a few minutes, finishes his ale and proceeds to the room.
Yeah RSS feeds, Those small orange icons at the top of the page on the right, there is one for the gameplay thread, one for discussion,and one for recruitment (next to the facebook and twitter icons). You can either set them up in your browser (firefox allows you to set them up as a dropdown bookmark), an application, or you can set it up to google reader I think as well.
Probably not...could be wrong, depends on the phone model I guess
Sajan shakes his head in embarrassment and shame. And to think were related...I'm suddenly glad that I was raised by my mother and the academy. Sitting besides Vik, Sajan waves at the rest of the group to join them at the table. Alexandra send off your lackeys, I won't have your suck ups follow us everywhere we go. If I wanted a parade, I would just tell Fizz to sing one of his roaring songs.
As Sajan enters he looks around at the dragon motif, he can't help but comment. I'm just glad the owner has a fetish for dragons and not slugs
I have discussion board and gameplay board set up as rss feeds, not instant but pretty close
No worries, I wouldn't know either. First Kingmaker game for me. But I think Vik is right, it would make the most sense for him to receive the charter, as both Alexandra and I are the 'enemy'.
Sajan reporting for conquering the world ;)
Well it seems like 3 of are us tied via the Lebeda household at least, and Fizz was tied to me through our Caravan travels, and Fionn through Vik. Who am I missing?
Sajan nudges Fionn. See, what did I tell you! Never a dull a moment with that one.
Sajan let's go of a small chuckle. Trust me Fionn, he is a great companion to have on the road. My last caravan trip from Korvosa to Breyon was much more pleasurable due to our small companion here.
Sign me up for the fast pace, but if it gets too overcrowded, I don't mind being in the slow pace either. Work for me is crazy hectic at times, and at other it is dead in the water. Then I have way too much time on my hands.
I'm for either the two groups or what Fizz said, a selection of the players. Because if you do the 5 post requirements for both AND your other campaign commitments it might be alot.
Background modified, with tie-ins to Vik, Fion and Fizz. If fizz and angeus coould make some sort of connection then we would be set. Do we have any divine caster completed applicants yet, because we seem to be warrior heavy, but rogue and caster light?
Darn Angeus do you have to pull out? We definitely need a rogue in the party.
@Vic = Check PM
Hey Vik, I'm a bastard born of the Lebedas, we could possibly tie it in that way. Also Fionn is already in Brevoy as well, and has been for a while. Maybe you can act as the connection between the two of us, while I could have met Fizz on a caravan to Brevoy and by extension you would both know him through me.
Just now waiting on the campaign traits before I pick my other two.
I will post his stats and such into his profile page. Hope that that the following background works. Background: Sajan was born in a well off family by Vudrani standards. His father is an ambitious merchant that married his Lebeda Brevoyni mother for her father's investment in the naval trade; unfortunately for the Vudrani, the in-laws wanted nothing to do with a Vudrani and refused to pay any sort of dowry or make trading arrangements. Even to this day relations between her mother and her family are still strained as she refused to divorce her father once Sajan was born. One can say that it was a loveless marriage between his parents, although his mother dotted him with attention and love, while his father as a disappointment. Throughout his youth he would escape in books with his mother guiding him in subjects of nobility, history and a bit of the arcane. Once he turned fourteen, his mother through whatever influence she had left in her family, was able to place him at the Acadamae as her older brother was one of the teachers. This was of no benefit to the young wizard, as his uncle's hatred for his father was passed on to the son. His uncle having some power at the school (being Messida Vost's personal assistant), placed him through a grueling first 3 years at the academy before Sajan could look at even on arcane book, or attend a class. He survived by being pure with and luck alone as many of his yearmates died from traps and experiments gone wrong. In his first two years he turned quite a few heads at the academy, including headmaster Toff and dean of evocation Salgar, by performing exceptionally well academically and in the classroom. His entire life changed a little over a month ago at the academy and sent him on his way to Brevoy. On what seemed a regular night, Sajan attended to his studies and ending his schoolwork early, he decided to go see his uncle. This was a monthly ritual where Sajan tried to extend the metaphorical fig leaf to his uncle for his mother's sake. Entering the staff quarters, preceded by his familiar, Sajan came upon a partially opened door to his uncle's study. Hearing whispered voices, he decided to wait by the door. Are you sure it will work? It has too! I am tired of Juaeli's wards hindering my summonings and her inability to see the grander picture. Will the other ones be able to track it back to us? Not if you do it right you moroon! If you place them at the correct place, her next casting should backlash on her. Hopefully killing her, if not at least talking her out of the equation for a few days, long enough for me to try my summoning. You'll give me what you promised? Yes, yes. Now get to it! Sajan assumed one of the voices was his uncle, but not until the end of the conversation that he recognized that the other voice was the dean of conjuration, Vost. Before getting caught, he darted further into the staff quarters. Seeing his uncle coming down the hall, he turned to his dean's door and knocked quickly. As usual Salgar was short tempered. "What do you want Sajan? It's getting late." "Sorry to bother you sir, I was working on my homework and was wondering if you could give a quick explanation on admixture, and if the theory is true, one could change the very elmental nature of a spell?" "Dammit Sajan, it is not a theory! We conceive of elements as opposites and separate from one another, but they are all part of one whole! You seemed to understand this in class. Read the additional readings I gave in class. Your stupidity surprises me sometime!" By the time the tirade was over, his uncle was out of sight. "Thank you sir, I'll go and look at these readings right away." Having a door slammed in his face calmed down the young man. That was something he was used to, not plots of potential murder. He had heard that dean of conjuration dealt in more nefarious summonings, but had dismissed them as mere products of the rumor mill. The boy quickly rushed to headmaster Toff's quarters and meticulously explained all that he had heard to the best of his memory. The old headmaster, slowly got up, snapped a few joints in the process and walked to a bookshelf. "I didn't think that she would chance this so soon, I was hoping that she would wait until after the next breaching." He put the book into a backpack, stuffed a bag of coins, and walked to his desk. "You have relatives in Brevoy don't you boy? I mean that uncle of yours...what's his name again...ah yes, Redalfo, quite a suck up that one."
"He needs the taste of a woman's embrace that one. I'm guessing that he's trying to embrace the wrong woman" Looking to the heavens for some inspiration, or simply time to think, the old wizard jots down a few notes on a parchment, rolls it up and then seals it with wax and applies his arcane mark to it. "No matter for your family, maybe this will give you a chance to patch things up, hopefully they are nothing like your uncle...ha ha ha" The humour was lost on the inexperienced wizard in the excitment and panic. "Now lad, with the money I gave you, my own apprentice spellbook, and this note head of to Brevoy tonight. I have friends with the swordlords, find one of them and give them this note. Tell them that you are the candidate that I recommend for the Stolen lands expedition." Sajan was speachless at holding one of the headmaster's spellbook. The years had clearly left their mark on it. "Listen boy! It doesn't hold mighty secrets, or does it?" The old man scratched his head and did seemed confused for a fraction of a second. " I can't remember now. Anyways, it doesn't matter, it shouldn't have anything more than you already know or beyond your capacity." Getting up from his desk, the old man pushed Sajan towards the fireplace. "Now my boy, it's time to make your place in the world!" On the final word, the headmaster pushed the young man into the fire. Expecting heat and burning, Sajan opened his eyes to a backpack falling on top of him followed by his familiar,Kutan, landing squarely on his head. Looking at his surroundings he realized that he was on the outskirts of Korvosa. Gathering his gear he quickly made his way to the merchant district, and paid fare on the first caravan to Brevoy. A few weeks passed by without any incidents, one night while setting out his bedroll, he could hear scribling coming from his backpack, from his spellbook more specifically. Turning the pages he didn't see anything until looking at the inside of the back cover. Writing was appearing before his eyes!
Toff". Absorbing all this, Sajan was ready to face his first real adventure!
Will post full stat block and background later today after I get back from soccer. HP 2nd level
No worries, either you hate or love them. Let me submit Sajan instead,as I hadn't seen that Fizz was a bard. He is a human male Wizard. Will fix statblock to reflect changes and fix backstory a bit. @Fionn: I wouldn't mind collaborating on a backstory.
Sajan just shakes his head and follows behind Jaylen
On my side, I have been a bit busy but now I have put a bit more order in my life so I am more able to post regularly now.
Assuming, that Sajan is not to far behind the rest of the group: "Quick lets go and investigate this!" He leans close to Aemrelara: "Maybe you should stay back and see how the crowd reacts to all of this and if there is anything suspicious going on? "
Even with the tiredness, Sajan jumps up from his seat grabs his quarterstaff and crossbow and follows the rest of the group.
"You are not happy that we are doing a dead man's final wish, or that something that is threatening an entire town is amiss?"
Will Save:
Sajan joins the rest of the group at the table and comments very little until Jaylen mentions about the coincidences. "Really? You think?" The sarcasm palpable. "Sorry, like most of us I didn't get much sleep. On top of that I learn that the professor had something to do with a secret arcane organization. I need to get access to some better resources and find out more. This might have to do with what has happened to him as well. I am sure there is a great link between the books that he has left for us. I just need to delve more into this when I have a chance, I know there is something that I'm missing!" As he progresses, the emotions keep rising in his voice, almost yelling at the end. "RK you are right. We need to have access to the archives, the burning of the prison is more than just that."
Have a great gaming week-end, don't break too many sheep hearts! Some of them have significant other sheep to go back to ;p
Ok now I'm really intrigued!!
Nope, just staying quiet until the next day or evening as I can't really do anything right now
oooohhh Sense Motive Ah come on, why can't I get those rolls in the gaming thread!! ;)
Apparently not :p . I need a big arrow that says RIGHT HERE DUMBASS!!
