My fellow gamers/adventurers: I hate to have to say this, but I think I’m gonna have to bow out of my PBP games. We all know how real life can rear its ugly head, and I’m just not finding the time to work on my online hobby these days. I can barely keep up with reading posts, let alone posting any actions on my own, and I’d rather not limp along in some half-ass fashion without being able to give the time and energy that these games and our characters deserve. I wish you all the best and thank you for including me in your stories. -Rob

Clutching her side, Danni is only too happy to step out of the way. She whips out a wand as she does so.
don't think she can activate it til next level but it's to cast magic missile

Grumbling, but not stupid, Danni steps back to allow Garran an opening. She snaps off a cantrip at the thug (not wanting to burn the whole place down just yet). casting daze DC14 Will @the guy by the door
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Danni internally sighs. How come it never goes smooth? She begins to cast a spell, holding it until the door opens.

Danni nods her assent and whispers, "I'll stand outside the double doors down here. If anyone comes out, I can probably take care of them." She moves closer to the big doors, trying to make out the conversation.

With the entryway cleared, Danni moves swiftly inside. She leaves her hawk alert outside to keep watch. "Well, we're inside, that's step 1," she says. "Ask how many others are here."

Danni's not sure she can help too much from the back, but there's one thing she can do. She points her finger at the man Nicoleta is fighting and utters a gutteral curse.
casting daze at him, DC14 will save
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Danni's hawk sends her sort of a confused emotion as the door closes behind the two ladies. It's the hawk equivalent of 'uh-oh.' Danni moves as quickly as she can to the door, hoping that she'll be able to help when the time comes.

I helped my kids with the card game when they were young, but yeah... doesn't excite me. Although I did pick up some badges along the way. To me, it always seemed like some bizarre gladiatorial combat thing. Bread and circuses
Enjoy the war Alistair!

I have to do one more bout of travelling. This will probably be it for a while though. Looks like Tues thru Sunday. Will do my best to check in as I can, but no guarantees. Apologies in advance
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Danni waits quietly out of sight with the others. Her hawk perches on a chimney above with a view of the butcher's shop, ready to alert her should anything seem amiss.
Having a moment's pause, she wonders Why didn't Nicoleta pick me? Am I not pretty enough? She shakes her head to clear the silly distraction and focuses on the issue at hand.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
just wasn't sure what kind of roll to make here. I mean, I can try stealth, but her purpose isn't really to be unobserved, but unnoticed. If she can roll a bluff to pull off "someone passing by", she's got a better chance. Also hoping her hawk can help out a little with perception. Danni's rolls are modified by lighting btw
Danni moseys down and around the alley, moving as though she's heading somewhere important.
bluff if that's okay:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17 perception:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 +3 'in light'
hawk perception:1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17

Danni wrinkles her nose at the smell of the place. "You sound like you've done this kind of thing before, Garran. I'll go check the back." Her hawk sits on her shoulder, eyes wide for trouble, as she casually walks down the side alley and around the back.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Danni's probably never been in a place as nice as the barracks. She does like a bit of privacy though, and this still feels kind of surreal to her. "I'm glad you didn't argue the 'alive' part, Nicoleta. We can do this." She nods to the Marshall and says, "I'm in."
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
heads up: I'm travelling over the next few days. I SHOULD still have some access, but will have limited opportunities to post. Please BOT me if needed.

Heroes? Well, that might be a bit much. She can feel her cheeks reddening. Danni is still a little nervous about all this. More than a little. But dammit, as much pain as it's caused me, it's still my city. Of course, it doesn't hurt being paid. And maybe, just maybe, they could get rid of some of the scum, like Lamm. "Yes, ma'am," she says to the Marshall. "Just tell us what you need."
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
"Huh? I thought that seemed uncharacteristically optimistic for you," Danni says with a smile. But she's worried. Who knows how much destruction this could cause? She hands Kirkos another snack from her belt pouch.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Danni greets the men warmly. "We could have used your assistance earlier with some hooligans, but everything worked out. How is the wounded Sable Marine, by the way?" She snickers a little at Nicoleta's 'next Mrs. Radacan' comment. "You both seem none the worse for wear. I wish I could say the same for the city."
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Ladies:
Danni's never been in the citadel before. Come to think of it, despite having lived her whole life here, there are many places in the city she has never been before. And she seems to be on a tour of firsts today. She's feeling very overwhelmed. Of course, it doesn't help that Nicoleta keeps hitting on everyone we meet, royalty included. She mentally sighs. And now another cleric. She gives him a friendly nod of acknowledgment, but can't help but notice his holy symbol. Abadar, the god of the wealthy. Hmph.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Ladies:
"I'm sure we'll figure it out. Let's see what the lads 've found first, eh?" Danni reaches out her hand and her hawk appears on her forearm. It hops up to her shoulder and nuzzles her ear. She draws out a small piece of meat and hands it to the bird. "What do you think, Kirk?" The hawk flaps its wings a bit as it downs the meal. "That's what I thought. She doesn't care as long as she gets fed."
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Ladies:
Did Nicoleta just proposition the Queen?! No, surely it was her imagination. Danni takes the box from Sabina and hands it to Alika. "Thank you, your highness. We are glad to be of service."
As they walk away, Nicoleta's joke makes it clear that it was NOT her imagination. "She is a striking woman, though I don't know that she's in to the lowborn, like you and I."To be fair, Danni doesn't have any bonus to sense motive or anything. "As for the reward, I know this may not be what you want to hear, but I think we can do more with it than just profit. I have no qualm with having a share, but I was thinking perhaps Alika could ask her church to use some of this to help care for the Lambs. Once all this chaos is settled down, maybe we could help set up an orphanage or something. AND we might not have come this far without Garran and Alistair. It doesn't seem right to not include them." She waves her hand. "We can discuss it. Let's just see what's going on at the Citadel."
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Ladies Night:
Danni's face pales even more, making her tanned skin look almost as pale as Nicoleta's. I just can't wrap my head around this. The actual queen?! She bows deeply, nervous that she really doesn't even know how to address someone of this stature. "Your majesty," she manages to say. Afraid to really say anymore, she simply keeps her eyes low.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Ladies:
Danni's face pales. She doesn't usually give people her last name, at least not her real one. But she's totally taken by surprise. "Danni Shriikirri," she says. "Like the Shoanti quah." The words spill out of her mouth, stunning her almost as much as the thought of being before the Queen.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Danni has to concentrate to hide her expression of disbelief when Nicoleta speaks. Oh, thanks the gods! I thought she'd get us killed for sure.
Danni nods along. "Pleasure to meet you, Lieutenant."
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Ladies:
Like Nicoleta, her weapons are kinda hard to just leave. But she does as they ask with her physical weapons. Her hawk appears upon her shoulder (...so it must have just landed there) and nuzzles her ear. Danni smirks at the monk's eyebrow waggle and follows along.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Ladies:
Danni stays in the back of the group. When Nicoleta pipes up, she nudges Alika. Without the respectability of the priestess, she's pretty convinced this would be a fool's errand. Suddenly feeling very exposed, she wonders Maybe I should have gone with the others after all.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
ladies:
Danni glances at Nicoleta with a frown. It doesn't ALL have to be about money. She's a little surprised the woman hasn't rolled the passed out villagers just to be sure. "Are you perchance known at the palace? Perhaps that would make a suitable safe-haven." Danni probably assumes most of the swells know the royals
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Danni's had enough of bullies. She runs forth and calls out, "Hey!" to get the attention of the rioters. As they turn to look, she waves her hand and a cone of swirling light and colors spews forth (casting color spray DC15 will). Her hawk flaps its wings as it hovers overhead.
since he's on the ground, it shouldn't be too hard to have the cone be a little above the noble's head
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
Danni frowns as the two men start to stride away. She wasn't exactly comfortable with the idea of the palace herself. Hiding has worked very well for her for some time. But this was a very unusual time, and these were quite uncharted waters.
Still, the cleric helped to give at least the veneer of respectability. And Danni respects the way the children were treated by her church. She would support her for now. Resigned, she sighs heavily. "Wait for us at the Citadel. I'm sure we'll be along shortly," she says. She wonders if the words sound as hollow as they feel.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
keen edge and silversheen are both kinda cool, but mostly for fighter types, which I am not. So if they don't want it, sell away
Speaking of loot, as soon as Danni gets another chance, she'll try again to id that damn armor
spellcraft:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
1200! Holy mother of... Danni's mind whirls at the amount. "When we check in on the other possibilities, we can show this as well. It seems we have several lines of evidence that should prove us worthy of reward." Even so, she's worried that they're getting greedy. This is all happening so quickly.
F Human Tattooed Sorcerer-2 | HP13/18 | AC13 T12 FF11 | F+4 R+2 W+4 CMD12 |Init+2 Per+4/+7 in light | Hawk Per+14
quick update: I have to travel for the next few days (3/11-3/15) and I'm unsure of internet access. I'll do my best to check in when I can. Please bot me as needed.

Danni whistles appreciatively at the merchandise. Jitters has some nice stuff. Possibly too nice. I'm guessing he has his fair share of crooks like Lamm come through here. She sighs inwardly. One of these days, I hope to be free of working with crooks.
She pulls out some of the items they had collected that they'd agreed not to hang on to.
ack, I forgot to try to ID that armor again. spellcraft:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 and it looks like I failed anyway. Anyone capable of aiding me?
