Felixus turns to his companion. "Could you check to see if anyone else is coming, I want to check a couple of tricks I knew some other novices to do? "

Felixus looks at the spartan room. He quickly checks around the room looking for any religious items of devotion. He will also thump on the mattress and pillow to see if anything has been stuffed in either.
" I thought we could use the distraction to start an investigation by ourselves. " Felixus hisses as the two make their way to Malvenos's quarters. "I'm deeply concerned that Ruan asked for help probably in front of the others, particularly as one of them probably stole the icons." Felixus continues. " So I thought if he's asking us in that we he really is clueless and hasn't conducted a search, or there is some bigger game afoot and I'm far too curious "
Felixus is going to head in the opposite direction heading for someones cell taking advantage of the distraction.
Looking around and seeing none of the monks right where they are he will try to covertly signal Tamarie with a deft nod, wink and jerk of the head as a coded message to take the opportunity. If time or able he will grab his backpack however given the restriction on weapons he will leave his where he slept.
Felixus would like to retire, and muse on the situation. He will talk if needed. My instinctive approach would be to pray and see what happens but I'm easily persuaded if anyone else's character wants to plan something.
"So what you are saying is that none of them were underneath lock and key when the smaller icons went missing? And that this philandering reprobate made off with some, but not all of the icons? At least there is this small mercy "
if they were the smallet of a set perhaps it would help us go see the larger ones. Besides they sound like a deep treasure the viewing of which would enhance our faith Felixus says as he thinks hypocrites, sitting up here accumulating gold and silver whilst not helping the poor. No wonder all the followers dispersed. Also why would a thief with access only take the smaller icons?
What size are these icons? Are they identical, part of a set or separate?
and this fool tells us and the suspects at dinner.
"Assuming that the meager few we encountered were in fact all of them and not just one raiding party of many." Felixus mutters darkly as he continues to consume his fairly tasteless soup.
Felixus would prefer awkward silence to awkward ramblings. It seems like this monastery has 5 monks.
Felixus is rather despondent this may not actually be a sign of the divine at all. He will try to keep these emotions from his face and eat in contemplative silence.
Felixus's interest is raised, proof of the divine in some manner seems almost too good to be true. He will try to keep a steady face and eat in reverent silence at this stage.
Felixus studies the four. are there really only four and the guests for diner? he thinks to himself. He sits a little awkwardly not sure if he should volunteer to read the writings of the saint of the season or if the practice of reading whilst eating has fallen out of fashion here like so many other things seem to have.
Felixus is ready. He's still up in the bell tower (assisting if possible).
If everyone has left him alone Felixus will have a gander up the bell tower to have a look around.
Felixus will continue to pray ignoring the conversation.
Felixus will try to rehang the door and make some prayers whilst pondering the situation.
Felixus will noisy into the vestery and take a gander.
I'll take a look in the small coffer. Do any of the prayer books or hymn books look as if they are from another religion (taking 10 for DC15 religion) ?
Felixus will pray at the three statues in turn. If nobody is around he will stick his head into the sacristy and have a nosy. (Well more than a nosy).
Felixus on the other hand is rather too proud for manual labor, and will locate a chapel to pray (or failing that a shrine, or holy statute, really anything except for manual labor).
Felixus will bow graciously, kiss the curates ring, and leave to obey instructions.
I am Felixus Deonus. I am a brother of Darlen, and right now very very cold and hungry. We were meant to arrive yesterday
Would you let a brother of Darlen freeze out here! Open the gate and let us in!" Flexius says. He tries to gesture to his white robes, but being under his winter gear the effort is unsuccessful.
Typical, to die in sight and sound of shelter, but unable to get in. Felixus mutters. Then upon hearing Agramayne shout he casts ghost sound .
Felixus will make a mad dash through the snow towards the building. If its a choice between dying the forest and possibly dying he's taking the later.
Bells! Thank Darlen, I am almost dying of the cold.
It's too cold, no wonder the place has trouble attracting postulants. Who wants to freeze to death every year?
Cold, wet, wolves, and strangers. I should have journeyed elsewhere Felixus thinks as he prepares to march.
Read, waiting
Even when logged in it says 'not authorized' so not sure if I'm doing something wrong.
Emboldened by his previous success Felixus will let loose with another arrow. (at the injured one) and
and if it hits
DM: Okay couple of rolls then, knowledge nature (I assume it's nature, if it's not, then there are the same pluses for my other knowledges)
In the interest of speeding things up: If I can recall a mating/gathering call of this type of wolf I will cast ghost sound it so it sounds like it is coming several miles from the east. If not, if I think they will be easily distracted I will cast mage hand to jerk the tail of a wolf. I'm hoping this will cause them to think something is behind them and turn to try and chase it into the woods. If not, if my knowledge indicates that they are the type of creature to be easily frightened I will perform an intimidate check in an effort to scare them away. I'll use ghost sound to produce a thunderclap roar for effect.
If my knowledge indicates none of these I'm going to gibber like a little child, use mage hand to slap the largest fighter (hopefully there is one between and the wolf) away, and ready my bow to let an arrow fire at the first one that moves aggressively. Have a gander through that list and pick whichever one fits best with my knowledge roll.
some of us didn't train with weights and swords, and now struggle with our pack packs without fitting in possibly useful items Felixus mutters causticLy. At least we'll have funeral candles on hand for when we don't make it
I can offer my sunrod, which will give us half an hour of the needed time. Can any of us see in the dark and keep watch with darkvision?
If his assistance will be a hindrance in the creation of a shelter he will get out his bedroll and huddle with any other less than useful individual.
If we are looking for shelter there were several fallen trees a little while back, I would guess that crouching in there would shield us from the worst of the storm? It would also be defensivable against any vermin. If vermin went to such effort to lay a trap we may as well try to make clay from poo.
I suggest we make with haste back to Swallowfield. It is a mere 3 hours away, the road is clear, safe, and we will be advancing away from the storm. Better than waiting here in the cold
[occ]is the dc 19? If so [/ooc]
Wolves? In this storm? Most unusual Felixus says perhaps they will eat those abominations
If useful Felixus will cast mage hand to brace and build the new shelter
let them die in the cold and the wet Felixus says. Better than us dying trying to find their lair
Felixus will pop his head up shoot the closest one.
Felixus will call out to the cowardly beings "Surrender or we will hack you to pieces"
Felixus will just revert to gibbering whilst taking cover. He focuses his attention to create the ghost sound of a charging enemy behind the remaining half goblins.
