Perhaps a warning of some sort...there are certain gods that give their followers a gift to allow them to interpret dreams and find the hidden meanings within....
It may be just a dream but perhaps this dream has deeper meaning, beyond "watch out for bone giants" which I think we all would agree is pretty much common sense.
Talia, you seem to have some knowledge of this type of creature, any thoughts on what this all means?
What type of dream would be enough to be considered a nightmare for one as powerful as yourself, Azuma? Twould be a pity if you didn't talk about it and it made you lose another night of rest, that could start impacting your abilities. Please, talk to us, we are all friends here.
I am ready to go!
*Xendril has never been in any type of fortress and looks forward to the experience with a smile.*
*After finishing his set and taking a request or two, Xendril returns to the table*
So we gonna be headin' to find the Green Robed One at the castle?

Xendril asks the barkeep if he may sing of light and magic and Erelune upon the stage after giving his answer to the Emissary.
If yes,
I raise my voice to praise her name. *gestures toward Erelune's symbol on the wall...and begins singing.
Magic lies within a moonbeam
and the passion that fills you within
Erelune's arms encircle you
While the darkness is calling
with a scream that fills your heart with cold
Erelune's arms encircle you
Protecting you, yeah..
You're wishing for something different
you're wanting a change
Cry out for her
Call out for heeerr...yeah!
Breathing in sweet magic's whisper
and the light that opens the night
Erelune's arms encasing you
There are rainbows in the moonlight
A warm soul can be thawed from ice
Erelune smile down on those
Empowering you, yeah....
You're wishing for something different
you're wanting a change
Cry out for her
Call out for heeerr...yeah
Perform check 1d20+4=21
Xendril performs several more songs that are popular in the area to give a bit of a show...
Ask and Erelune will provide.....
Mine own answer is a "Yes", I would be delighted to join for a meeting.
Erelune must've guided my steps to this town...I see her hand guiding me. I believe the answers will lie with the Green Robed Figure. Whether it's purposes are good or evil will be revealed in the Green Robe's presense, I believe we must head to where this figure seems to be to seek our answers. A night of rest and the chance to sing for my sup would be a welcome event so I would propose that we, if we intend to keep traveling as a group, take the evening in reclination and find the Figure in the morning to get some answers at, Castle Verson did you say? Erelune drew me to the group so I believe it is fate that we are together, possibly we were drawn together directly through the Gods' own will to carry out great deeds.
*Xendril looks down at his holy symbol of Erelune and up to the large symbol in the tavern, a wide smile spreading across his face.*
I believe I am going to enjoy it here! Go day, sir, I am Xendril, singer of Erelune's praises and Wielder of Her Arcane Might. 'Tis good to be off of road and in such a fine place.
Xendril follows into the Inn and scans the area, looking for someone looking like they are in charge.
I relish the thought of a hot meal in a warm Inn. The days are still chilly enough although it is warming up nicely. The simplest faire would seem a feast now and I look forward to a full belly and warm bed after a bath to wash away the road dust. Lead on, grand sir.
Erelune's praises must be sung for all to hear. I come to this town to raise my voice in the song of her praise. My acts and my deeds I do for her. My power is a gift from her and I shall use it to further her name.
I look to increase her name with my actions. And to sing.
Finally, a voice of reason. I will follow you. I need rest.
The charms, good citizens, are fakes. No magicks grace them at all. Better to save your coins or donate to a church. Surely the grace of one of the goodly gods, such as Erelune, is more protection than a cheap "charm" filled with spices.
I am sorry for your losses, good folk.
Yes but are these creatures the "Shreiking Ghost" that the townfolk have been terrorized by?
and Xendril isn't going anywhere until he figures out for sure if the "charm" seller is a scam-artist. He doesn't like the innocent being fleeced by scams.
BTW, Searn, Know: arcana is +6. Would like to know what the creatures were and what(if any) auras are emanating from first the man then I will scan the area quickly after him.
I have no patience with those who would fleece the innocent of hard-earned coins in return for some fake "charm". As I said, speak truth or begone from my presence!
My eyes....can see the power flowing,
magic light fill my eyes!!!
casts detect magic and scans the man for any auras.
These peoples seem to be of a hard-working lot and as yet your "magic" has me doubtful of your abilities.
*addressing the crowd*Describe this "Shreiking Ghost" that you all fear! We have defeated 2 vile hellspawns this hour and I would like to assure that we all speak of the same demons.
*Sings a quick tune...
We heard the screams, fear was it's call
Leathery wings, on a head.. That's aalllll!
Two by air and no bodies on them,
Bravery's blades tore on through them!
Standing frozen
trembling for a time
steeled will
was needed to survive.
Erelune saves us!
They were a demonic head with fangs that were borne upon leathery bat-like wings, and they screamed with a ferocity that sent ice into our veins.
Are these the "Shreiking Ghosts" of which you have spoken?
Xendril quickly uses his sorcerous flight ability, flying over the guards to land gently in front of the halfling.
"Do not speak to me of any lack of arcane knowledge on my part. I suspect you are a snake-oil dealer and a flim-flam artist. BEGONE! Unless you have some truth to speak, do not waste our time! Our trail was long and rest is desired."
I agree Harmen. Safety in numbers and all that.
*under his breath* Peace-bonding, fine by me....my music's my weapon and I am well armed!
No visible people outside and no smoke from chimneys.....Hmmm. Looks like something is up here. Caution would be advised, I doubt it is a good idea to roll a load cart full of people into a dead town. Especially if it is overrun by Avenged 7fold bat-skull things!
Caught here in a lonely place... *Xendril's impromptu song trails off as he works some lyrics in his head*
Dripping with ma-gick, defend me from might
encasing my co-il, with darkness' light
Oddly glowing tendrils of blackness seem to be pulled from the air, collecting about Xendril's form in a sheet of glowing black before fading from view.
cast mage armor
Initiative=5. By Erelune's ears! What was that sound?!
First action in combat will be to cast Mage Armor on myself.
Xendril travels to spread the song of Erelune to any he can, and to find his destiny through his Goddess. A large city is a good place to begin his journey and this is the closest to his small hamlet. He has no political motivations.
Here is Xendril! His persona is based on some sort of stylized Dio. He sings his verbal components using Dio-esque lyrics.
Let me know what you think.
Happy Mona-Day!
I believe we already have a song (Billy Idol version)
OOo I love ya Mona-Mon-Mon-Mona!
I said yeah!
yeah!
Then something about riding his pony or some such but I would rather not go there.
;P
I am the False Mona!
