He pulled out a bolt from his crossbow and cast a light spell on it, carefuly putting it back in his quarrel and placing a hand over it, just in case before he stepped inside after the others. Let me know when we need better light. He said quietly keeping his hand over it.
He glanced about looking for people who might be in visual range...Seeing none he removed his estoc. We have a perfectly servicible lockpick right here I believe.

0-level = daze, light, spark
1- level = shield, color spray He wasnt very good at mornings, so dragging himself from a warm bed, putting on those ridiculously itchy clothing and then making his way into the miserable morning certainly had a cumalative effect on him. He entered the place as the woman scowled at the portrait which caused him to stop short for a moment. He glanced around the place to make sure he was where he needed to be, and spotting finally Alessia and his friend Yorrick he made his way torwards them melting into the chair beside Yorrick.
if no one moved to collect any of the items proffured of course I would take them, not that I am greedy per say,in fact that was just the point I didnt want to seem that guy hoarding everything. But Sure mark it down as I took all the things, but yeah, i have my own signet ring, would seem weird to wear theirs too you know ;)
In truth to sound a fool, that actress the half elf one you know Shensen, I saw her on stage a few times and bought her a drink once after a performance and have been smitten ever since. She disapeared around the night of ashes... and well. He frowned and slipped the bracers on, for safekeeping so to speak. If their are secrets or anything to be found at the livery have no fear we will find them. After all we have Yorricks sharp eyes and tongue to flush them out. He said with a grinning smile.
its as good as something to start as any. Its not like there are any plays with my beloved showing... in fact, its not like any know where she even is. It will also give us time to think how we can fight back against this.... breach of good government. He took the bracers and looked at them, wondering their function and worth. He paused and concentrated, wondering if there were any magic in the things.
Indeed I am confused, you don't want a revolution, but I take it you want us to search the chambers below this Fair fortune yes? With the current state of things here in the city, there will be more blood almost certainly. I for one, am not about to lie down and be trampled upon that is for sure. There are some Thrunites who owe me and my friend here some blood. He said with a slight frown.
It is good to see you well, when news of the fire at ...well your home reached the populace well like my good friend Yorick here said, much was assumed. He answered carefully following the man inside and sitting down. It would be far too elaborate and well too silly to be some sort of trap for them, it would have been just as easy to arrange their disapearance in the jail cells.
You know I think i have only been here once before..." He muttered slipping away from the others and merely wandering the shelves merely browsing for anything of interest.
Not that it did much good this time, but I have studied many arcane matters along with some training with a blade. Also, I am a lesser son of a higher house here in the city, one that shows no love for this particular governor i can tell you that.
Im more interested to be honest in what others feel about the actions that took place that got us arrested. That was no militia dispersing an unlawful crowd. That was assault at its finest. I won't stand for that and I am sure others won't as well. I havent introduced myself yet have I? I am Eddlestan Jarvis, third son of house Jarvis. There is no need for knuckling of brow or curtsies though, this is no high society function. He began others he didnt know, shaking both Beorn's hand then Mr. Erdemon. Finally he took Alessia's hand and brought it properly to his lips, though quickly. It is my pleasure to meet you all. Of course.
He was quiet allowing his friend Yorrick to do the talking while he rubbed the back of his head. It still hurt, worse he couldnt remember the face of the woman who clocked him with her mace. He managed to whisper lowly. Perhaps we should keep it down till we reach somewhere with less ears yes?" He said following along quietly. He was very interested in this meeting... if it wasnt some sort of trap by those damn thrunites. If it were he certainly wouldnt pull any punches.
You see... now that was entirely impolite. He muttered trying to focus on the woman and sheath his estoc. He was having trouble trying to figure out which woman was the one giving the orders... he bet the one in the middle. He tried to focus... but found his mind not wanting to do such a thing. He bent over to try and pick up his friend again.
Oh good, the law, Officer I would like to report that man for assault. I and my friend here were indeed leaving the park when this man, struck me from behind. He pointed out the down fellow who had indeed started things with an attack from behind. He bent down to collect his friend. If you will excuse us, we will gladly leave the scene of this terrible travesty.
To think Im not really that fond of bloodshed but ne'er the less. He began sliding away from the foe on his right and pincering the one between he and Yorrick. His attempt to club the man with the oversized rapier failed a bit miserably, but at least it gave the fell something to think about.
If you dont run away right now I might go back to stabbing." He growled out in annoyance.
learn something new everyday thanks! :)
you know you would think they would have automatic mage templates you could plop down on roll 20. sorry for my bad purple lines measured out the color spray for you i think
Really fools, you should have just left well enough alone.
You friend turned your back on your city for a thrunite toady, For shame. He chastised the man who struck him drawing out his estoc. He wasnt attempting to stun the man, but to end his foolish life.
Well that will cause a row, I am beginning to wonder if the man is just a fool, or a jerk, this will cause blood mark my words Yorrick. He lamented and shook his head sadly, like Yorrick he glanced about for anything of interest.
aw thanks, i moved me! :)
great work on the non us nerd removal!
This is quite amazing you know Yorrick, the way so many have gathered here to make their voice heard. It would make an interesting start to a book. The oppressed masses congregrated on the square their voices cried out in protest at the injustice faced. He mused aloud with a smirk. There might be something there, perhaps a play? Maybe that would catch Shensen's eye...
A potion of cure light as well, just in case :)
Well my friend I am sad that I missed it, this city... its getting crowded here... I dont suppose you have caught a glimpse of my lovely Shensen about have you. Demery Lancaster said he heard from that actress he has been seeing that she would be making an appearance here today. He began scanning the crowd again as if she was going to magically appear surrounding in a halo of light.

This whole thing was absolutely ridiculous, some of the edicts were absolutely asinine. Mint was banned because the new 'mayor' wasnt a fan? what was next the use of napkins was banned because it was a waste of cloth? the man was clearly touched in the head. He itched at his shirt with frown as well. The edict against finery was also excessive. It seemed a fine way to punish good citizens like his family who didnt like the way the government was taking things. These blasted clothes itched fiercely it certainly had him wondering how much the fine for wearing real clothing was. He had come here with his friend Yorrick, He hadnt pressed on what his bookish friend wanted to be here for, but he had heard several rumours that Shensen would be making an appearance to no doubt make her voice heard again about the wrongs done by the Thrunites here... and he couldnt miss that. One day he would have to work up the courage to speak to her, that was for sure. That Barzillai Thrune taking up residence in the Opera house... was also a travesty.
I think its a combination of things really for eddlestan.
(+2 bonus to perception and sense motive during protest)
Why wouldnt she want one of her employee's to chat about politics? I kid. . . mostly. I am sure Ed frequents the store on some occasions, miss Crissali i mean, have to get those tomes for my magics , but yeah, if shes that anti politics (probably a smart move honestly) I cant imagine that shop is where we talk. Then again, maybe thats the shop you work at and we argue in another?
indeed no doubt scandalized by our less intelligent brethren who are out carousing
I dont see why not? If Yorick is working for a bookstore for extra coin/funsies/small time message passer books just happen to be one of Eddlestan's favorite things. Ed's going to be pretty laid back well up until his celebrity crush disapears then well despondant and angry.
woot, will work it into my background, then truth be told I dont see Eddlestan being that much of a partier either, but he did run in those circles on occasions I imagine.
corrected the stat point error, *lawls* makes no change at all really, put the other skill point into knowledge local, its where i would have put it but thanks for the advice none the less, awesome, thanks for the house rule, Like i should have caught that, just saw the chance to have an exotic weapon (something i think most nobles would be likely to do) and was all sweet. I will get an annotated list of gear and where it is stored soon, debating if there are any minor things. Like Mini, I would imagine I dont keep everything on me at all times, i mean as a noble of the city why would I carry a pot around on me? :P background will be going up soon and appearance, hey mini silly/fun question, since we uh are youngish nobles about the town how do you feel about us knowing each other? maybe sharing a flat somewhere where all the good parties happen? from your background ol' Yorick doesnt sound like the partier, but doesnt mean you cant have that annoying room mate who is.
Crunch should be updated, Will make the backgrounds and appearance probably tomorrow, the sleep monster just snuck up behind me and hit me with a chair.
Magus I debated both ways but going that route
Its not entirely finished was waiting on the estoc ruling before i tidied things up but shoot Oh poop I see the confusion, I copied a sheet from my inquisiter and edited out.. or thought i did, it must not have took I will fix that right now sorry >.<
Then i would imagine as long as he doesnt have designs on my beloved Shensen we can be friends :P
Is your house pro thrune or anti thrune mini?
This is the nine's charector, I dont have it all typed in yet, I did have a question on the 200 gp noble gold. I could use that on say MW studded leather? Or would you prefer it on something more mundance and funsical? Lastly, what is your ruling on the estoc If you will allow it as my weapon then I will be taking the feat to use it proficeiently one handed if not, well than some other fun non-normal sword. :)
Good luck to everyone!
I can Valani as guardian,champion, and heck maybe even heirophant though that is a distant 3rd but very possible with her build.
While i think i answered the questions in the profile just to be concise i will answer them here too questions:
1. What does your character look like? (Height, weight, age, appearance, etc.) Valani is a beautiful young woman from a distance, and that doesnt change up close, other than it is obvious The pretty young dark haired and violet eyed woman has haunted looking eyes, as if she has not slept properly in a long long while. Her dusky skin has a hint of an ashy tone to it as well. Almost as if she was sick. Unlike most of her people her clothing is dark and subdued, favoring the dark greys and blacks prefered by the clergy of her goddess Pharisma. The only oddity to that, is the bright orange kapenia that the young woman as added swaths of green too. 2. What is your character’s personality? Due to her illness, Valani does her best to ...quietly observe people quietly not saying much until she is sure of their character. Devout people of most neutral to good diety's She tends to give the benefit of the doubt to. To those who have earned her trust she will gladly speak about a multitude of things from theology, weather, histories, and more mundane things like fashion, dancing and music. 3. Where is your character from? Golarion’s history and geography is very detailed. Make good use of that. Valani was born to a traveling Varisian caravan that made a round about trip from Brinewall through the lands of the linnorm kings through snow filled Irrisen, the realm of the Mammoth Lords and even orc filled Belkzen, through the eastern tip of Ustalav, through Lastwall, Nirmathas, and back into Varisia proper. A round trip the caravaning familes had made easily a half dozen times before through the years. Tragedy struck shortly after she was born and her mother cursed. The entire caravan is no more, if there are any survivors she knows nothing of them.
She grew up under the guide of a Pharasmin church and in her teens was taken in by known inquisitor of the tenets as his apprentice. Her weapons and training came from him, the crossbow for its ease of use, the mace for its handiness in laying the undead back to rest, and the multiple daggers both from the connection they hold to her goddess to their very handy nature. Her mentor trained her hard, Her first lessions were how to avoid being hit and how to quickly reload her crossbow. (he felt as young and untested as she was she would be more useful at a distance than up close.)
Valani is deeply religous knowing next to nothing of her family besides the sisters and brothers at the church/monestary she was raised in she holds the tenets of the Pharasmin faith very dearly.
6. What is your character’s reason to get involved with Irrisen? It can be something as simple as hating tyranny, but something more detailed will certainly help your chances. She has always felt a strange pull to the northlands, though she is not sure why. Whether it is a strange side effect of the curse or even something way more sinister is yet to be seen, but once she arrives in the northlands there is no doubt the pull will strengthen and she is not likely to leave until that mystery has become clear.
I Switched out a feat, and a weapon, mostly for flavory purposes, and made the answers to the questions more clear. Man there are a lot of good submissions here :)
Background up as well :) I might adjust it a little, add a few more details but thats the gist of it. Thank you for the opportunity to enter, good luck to everyone else, Good luck making your decisions Faceless. There are some really excellent submissions already.
This is the Nine's entrant's Crunch. Writing up the fluff now but wanted to get that part of it to you at the least. Im thinking her mythic path would be either Guardian or Marshall, But Im not really fully set yet on either. |
