Triel nods. "Understandable."

And give them enough time, and they might not panic if I take my helmet off.

Triel clears her throat. "So, what else has been going around lately? I have to admit, I'm rather curious about this town."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 +1 if Charming applies = 14

"How often do monsters attack Sandpoint?"

Sheriff mentioned them during our little chat, that's all.
Sorry for the delay, but I'm good now, if you would like to procede to the hunting.


Hunting Party:
"Well if the sheriff brought it up, well then I suppose that he would have his reasons for doing so." Aldern says as he responds to Jack's comment.

Cathedral:
"Indeed there are many kinds of songs for different occasions young lady. I'm sure that a song would do some good for those here." Zantus says towards Ithylia as he shifts his gaze to Triel and Vanya. "When I say monsters, I refer to the goblins. They've begun to raid our town more often as of late, as if it were some sort of happenstance with the events of 5 years past. I'm not one to jump to conclusion, but I won't deny possibility when I can not prove my own fact." As Zantus continues speaking to the lot of you, a young woman with red hair approaches behind Cian and taps him on the shoulder. "Umm, excuse me..." she says shyly as she hopes to gain his attention. "Would you be kind enough to assist me?"


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Five years past? Vanya thinks for a moment, trying to remember what was going on five years back. She smiles, a bit embarassed, a she realizes she had no idea Sandpoint was even a town five years ago. "Forgive me Father, but you'll have to enlighten us about your non-conclusion, possibilities and non-facts." The waif grins, thinking herself mighty clever for not making a case where even the old priest will not.


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Triel folds her arms. "So, this sort of thing has happened before? May I inquire what happened those 5 years ago?"

Diplomacy (If Needed): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24 +1 if Charming applies = 25

She glances over at Cian, wondering what he's up to. The sight of the redheaded girl trying to get his attention causes her to smirk behind her helmet again.

Well, well, well. Looks like you have an admirer.

She looks back to Father Zantus.

I'll take that as a clueless on this XD

Ithylia was only partially hearing the conversation after Father Zantus suggested a song would do the people here good. She was racking her brain torn between different songs, trying to decide which one or ones would be the best here.


He starts a little, caught off guard. Then he smiles and nods.

"Oh, sorry, miss, I didn't notice you there. Don't suppose I would with you behind me though... What do you need help with?"


Cathedral:
Zantus looks at you with somewhat of grim look in his face before speaking. "Well, it was really unfortunate... As you may have heard, yesterday was to be our consecration day for our new temple. And of course, it was cut short by the raid. 5 years ago, our old temple had burned down in a fire from unknown causes. We believe that's when the goblins first attacked us, but we're unsure. All we know is that night, we lost two of our own in the blaze, which was a very sad night for everyone in town."

The beautiful woman who asks you shyly turns her head down slightly. I was wondering... I saw the way you use your voice to command power, and I was hoping... I'm having a little trouble at my father's shop, you see. If it isn't too much trouble for you, will you help me out?"

You can make a knowledge local check to identify her and her father's supposed shop if you would like, any one here anyways.


Knowledge(Local): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

"I guess I could. What kind of trouble are you having? I'm Cian by the way."


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Triel looks over at Cian again, this time really taking note of the redhead speaking with him. She looks back to Father Zantus.

"Would you excuse me for a moment?"

She walks over to Cian & his new friend.

"Well, Cian, you certainly have a way with women, don't you?" She asks, a smirk on behind her helmet.

She looks to the redhead. "My apologies, I don't believe we've been introduced. You may call me Triel. Who might you be?" She asks, putting on her friendliest voice.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27 +1 if Charming applies = 28

Wow, I'm using up all these good rolls...

K.Local+Bardic Knowledge: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 1 = 10 And I'll spend those bad rolls!

Ithylia's brain was filled with thoughts of butterflies and music. She saw some red-headed lady talking to Cian that she couldn't place but she didn't worry about that. She couldn't resist the draw of performing and really it could help cheer people up. She pulled out her fiddle and started up a song. It was slow at first before speeding up and getting more lively as it went. She even at a point started to dance some the livelier the song became.

Taking 10 for a 17 in Perform(string) I don't trust the dice roller to not ruin Ithylia's good intentions right now. Also taking 10 for a 17 in Perform(dancing) as well if you need a roll for either.

And the song that I feel she would be playing. It just feels right.


Cathedral:
Zantus nods his head at Triel and walks off towards a parishioner as you join the conversation. The woman responds with a somewhat shy blush, "My name is Shayliss, my father owns one of the shops here in town. I was hoping that you could help me Cian take care of a..." she looks down at her feet with a look of embarrassment all over her face. "On second thought, I'm just being too much of a girl about this, I'll just find a way to solve the problem myself."

[ooc]You're good to go Ithylia. You don't fall over and your music seems to help liven the mood a little.


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Triel arches an eyebrow in confusion behind her helmet.

...did I do something wrong? Well, aside from exist, I mean?

Sense Motive: Where Did I Go Wrong?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

"I'm sorry, did I interrupt something, Shayliss?" She looks between Cian & Shayliss, still making an effort to smooth things over.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 +1 if Charming applies = 22

Perhaps I should just have let Cian speak with her alone. She's obviously more interested in him anyway.


"Is there some reason my friend couldn't helps at the store as well?" He asks, trying to be diplomatic about it. "Surely two people helping would be better than just one?"
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Sense Motive:Where did Triel Go Wrong?: 1d20 ⇒ 6
I. Am. Clueless.


Cathedral:
"It's nothing personal against you ma'am, but I thought that with you and the musician helping people here, I would be able to have Cian help me. I don't need the whole town to help me clear our storage basement of vermin, but it would be nice to have Cian here say a few words and easily take care of the problem. I would be glad to repay you in anyway that I can of course." Shayliss responds.

You don't sense anything harmful or deceiving Triel.


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Triel shrugs (*clink*).

"Very well then."

With that, she turns and heads back to Father Zantus, leaving Cian & Shayliss alone together.

I swear, there are times when I cannot understand the behavior of surfacer women... some of them are so meek and pitiable.

"My apologies for wandering off like that, Father. You mentioned that two of your faithful in the fire? May I inquire as to who they were?"


"I suppose I can help..." He says as he watches Triel walk off. "What was your problem again?"


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Ithylia gave a flourish of a bow before addressing those present, "Any requests?"


Cathedral:
Father Zantus looks back at Triel and responds to the question regarding the topic on hand. "The two who perished in the fire? Wonderful people they were. Father Tobyn was an exceptional man, much better than myself I must admit. It was a shame that he, as well as his beautiful daughter, were both burnt in that blaze."

Lowering her head slightly with a slight blush, Shayliss responds back. "I didn't mean to be rude to your friends. We all owe you thanks for sure. But as I said, I was hoping that you'd be able to help me out with a small rodent problem." She comes up close to Cian, resting one hand on his shoulder, the other on his chest while looking back up at him. I would be very grateful and would be able to pay you back..."

Nobody seems to respond to the question at first Ithylia, but it's not long before someone pipes up and says that the upbeat tune was welcoming to them.

Cathedral:
Triel arches an eyebrow behind her helmet before turning her head, looking around the cathedral. "I'm certain Father Tobyn would approve of what you've done to rebuild this place."

It's not as extravagant as the spires of Zirnakaynin, but it has its own charm, I suppose.

She briefly glances at Vanya, Ithylia & Cian before looking back at Father Zantus. "I must admit, I had not thought the clergy of Desna to be the sort to have children. Who was she, to warrant such a guardian?"


Cathedral:
"Nualia wasn't Ezakien's, I'm sorry, Father Tobyn's child by birth. She was an orphan, and unfortunately, no one knew anything about her parents. He saw something different in her though, so he said, and raised her as his own."


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Cathedral:
Triel leans forward, clearly interested.

"Different? How so?"

Nualia doesn't sound like a drow name... but I still should hear this.


Cathedral:
Zantus sighs lightly. "It wasn't hard to see that she was blessed by Desna herself. Nualia's beauty was like that of no other. It would be easy to guess that she may not of been from this plane, but with no information on her parents, it's hard to say. Father Tobyn picked up on it right away, there's no doubt about that."

Cathedral:
Blessed by Desna, supernaturally beautiful, no real evidence as to her parentage... and raised amongst loving humans.

Triel says nothing, instead leaning back.

"Do you suppose she'd have liked this place?" Triel looks around the cathedral again.

Artemis shifts in his saddle.

Vanya thinks to herself, No parents? Is that better or worse than my parents? Otherwise, she taps her tow in time with Ithylia's music.


"Surely whatever repayment you think I need can wait until after your problem is solved, yes?"


Hunting party:
Can I get a Perception check please?

Cathedral:
"I do believe that she would like it, but it's hard to say because she became distant for some time before the fire. Tobyn always said it was because she wasn't feeling well, so we left her to be so that she would be well. Now if you have any other questions you would like to inquire about the fire, I can tell you later, however I do have a few things that I must complete before the days end."

Shayliss looks at Cian as she starts to pull on his hand. "Well follow me then, please, I'd like to rid the store of those vermin before my father gets back."


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Triel nods at Father Zantus. "Very well, then."

Walking away, she turns to Vanya & Ithylia. "Well, Cian is a bit indisposed at the moment. Do any of you have a preference as to where we should go next?"

"Why? Wouldn't your father be able to help kill the rats? It's his store, and I wouldn't want him upset."


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Hmmm? Oh, I was going ta follow you! We can't very well follow the music, 'cause Ithylia is already here." The waif smiles as she sees Triel's head nod, Maybe that was a dip in sigh? No matter!

At the crowd's suggestion, Ithylia smiled big and started into a merry jig, dancing along with it. She encouraged those there to joi in, but she didn't force the issue. Her music was doing them some good. When Triel and/or looked her way, she motioned for them to join as well.


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Hearing the jig start up, and seeing the happy expression on Ithylia's face caused Triel to sigh.

She's incorrigible. And infectious.
Disguise (Minor Details Only): 1d20 + 4 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 4 + 5 = 24
The so-called stoic, armoured elf checks to make sure her helmet is securely fastened before joining in the fun.
Perform (Dance): Because, Why The Hell Not?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
Not that she's one to brag (alright, fine, she very much is), but she proves herself to be an incredible dancer. One can only imagine how well she can dance when she's not wearing enough metal armour to stop a blade.

Look at yourself. You're dancing. The drow don't dance. And even if they did, they wouldn't dance like this.

The thought put a strange smile on Triel's face behind her helmet.

Perfect, then. That's why they'll never suspect a thing.


Cathedral:
No one suspects anything and you dance with the grace of a butterfly Triel.

Cian:
As she leads you out of the cathedral to the shop, she replies without hesitation. "Because there weren't rats this morning and if he gets back to see the rats, well then I'll probably get in trouble for doing something I didn't do. You understand right?"

Artemis:
[ooc]You notice a large shape move through the bushes off to the side of three of you.

Hunting Party:
Aldern looks to the side and speaks up in a curious voice "What was that? Did you hear something?"
[ooc]Can you two roll me initiative checks please?

Triel finishes her dance, smirking under her helmet as always.

"Well, shall we be off?" She asks Ithylia & Vanya. "I'm hoping to unload that weapon I picked off of the goblin leader at the nearest smithy."

Artemis fires an arrow into the shape off to the party's side,

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Damage, if hits: 1d8 ⇒ 7


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Smiling broadly, and sweating lightly, Vanya nods, "Then to the smithy! Wait. Which way is it?"

Ithylia gives a flourish of a bow as she finishes and the dancing ends. It made her happy to help ease their woes with music. Putting her violin back away, she gave a respective bow at the shrine of Desna. 'Help heal their hurting hearts as they continue to travel their chosen paths.' With a smile she turns to follow Triel and Vanya out since Ciel was gone with his lady friend. They could catch up with him later. "Sure! Let's go!"


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Triel smirks under her helmet and starts out of the cathedral. She squeezes her eyes shut as the sunlight shines into them once more.

I swear, I'll never get used to this...

"Anyway, I think I saw something like a smithy on the way here..." Triel says before starting back down the street labeled Church Street.


"I.. I guess I do. I don't see how the rats could be your fault unless you let them in or something, but I'll help as best I can."


Cian:
Keeping a firm grip on your hand, the two of you make it to her father's shop fairly quick. As you approach it, you notice that it's a simple two story building, each level seeming to serve a different purpose. Shayliss leads you down stairs into the basement, where you see what would appear to serve not just as storage, but as well as a small office space with a makeshift bed to sleep in for long nights. Pointing over to a corner Shayliss tells you "Over there is where I saw them. I think they're behind those boxes..."

Hunting Party:
Artemis' attack misses. The creature in the bushes is next.
As you see the bushes rustle even more, they seem to move around you from the left to the right. Whatever it is, it seems to have the intent on staying hidden.
Jack is next.

Ladies:
I've nothing for you yet. Just keep going and I'll react.

Triel reaches the door to the store called 'Savah's Armoury' and opens it, momentarily savouring the relief of stepping out of the sun.

Jack will climb down from his horse, and move towards the sound, drawing his ax as he walks, and he begins singing.

perform sing: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

Kill the pig! Cut her down!
Spill her blood upon the ground
If she sprints and leaves us humble
Surely our bellies will be a grumble.
