Gargos grabs the coin to examine it closer.

Stepping up to the table, Gargos pulls out a chair and sits with the seemingly destined group. To be perfectly honest P’Aye, my distant relatives were members of the whispering tyrant, Tar-Barphon’s, army. He and his followers did horrendous experiments to them and it carried on through the blood of my parents. Looking toward the three males situated around the table. Directing his first introduction to Ghorum, I don’t believe we have been formally introduced. I overheard that you, master dwarf, were hired by the deceased as a bodyguard. I am sorry for the loss of your charge. I am Gargos. Catching the eye of the follower of the lady, Gargos gives a slight nod. I see that the lady speaks to you. I have not had the pleasure of that connection. I look forward to hearing of some of your duties. As you have heard my name is Gargos. And you sir. Looking at the young man with the poise of a knight. You have a commanding look about you, It is a pleasure. I agree with Uldhazel in some respect, but I believe we should wait for the sheriff to speak to us before we go out and investigate more. Mostly to keep the ire of the law on the perpetrators.
As Gargos entered the common room he tucked into the corner nearest the stairway. I don't know what it is, but I feel strangely drawn to these strangers. Maybe it was their quickness to action or shared curiosity toward the mangled pathfinder. All I know is this could be my way out of here, so I should stay with them. When Gargos sees P'Aye and Carawyn descending the stairs he steps forward and extends his pale emaciated hand. I am Gargos, I have lived in this town all my life. It is a pleasure to make both of your acquaintance. I am sorry about my appearance if it startles you, it is my lineage. Would you care to take a seat so we can discuss what should be done next while we wait for the sheriff? As Gargos finishes speaking he extends his arm and rotates out toward the room letting the ladies by, then taking a seat at one of the tables.
Gargos rises from his crouched position as the sheriff enters the room. There is a sack of coins under the mattress sir. Gargos states as he walks toward the door nodding to the dwarf. I will be downstairs in the common room with the others if you need me. Walking slowly out of the room, Gargos heads downstairs to meet up with the others.
Just as Gargos starts to turn to leave he hears Carawyn call to everyone. Turning back, he walks over to the bed and crouches next to it looking for the evidence.
"Is there an experienced tracker here who can follow the trail of the attacker outside? This victim was obviously searched. Let us see what was left behind. Perhaps we can learn something of the murderer by examining what he or she did not take." In response to Uldhazel, Miss, I am sorry I do not know your name. I do have to add that there was a significant rain last night and the tracks may well be washed away. Yet I do agree that we should try.
Stepping up to the doorway finally, Gargos peers around the room laying eyes on the mutilated body. Looking to the hired bodyguard, Ghorum sir, my name is Gargos. Do you know his reasons for visiting Daven's Rest or where he was heading?
Gargos stops for a few seconds and notes the broken window and bloody rope, then hurries into the inn making his was to the second floor.
I think the River Kingdoms is nearest to Ustalav that is a gnome homeland. It is due east. You can check it out on pathfinderwiki.com
As Gargos moves through the streets he stays alert to anything that seems suspicious to him, taking note of who is moving toward the scream and away.
Gargos lay awake waiting for the morning sun to break the plane of the small window next to his bed. As the piercing scream met Gargos' ears, he jumped to his feet with a quick step to his robe and backpack he had packed a few days earlier. Maybe that feeling during the night was not just a dream, he thought. Better make my way to the origin, this could be my ticket out of this place. Dressing and grabbing his backpack, Gargos walks quickly to the women screaming.
Good to go. May add some fluff in background as we go.
+1 Even if more than one person really wants the item, we can always roll for it. Or whatever works.
Mystic Theurge looks like what I'm talking about. That's a pretty nice PrC.
Now all I can think of is multiclassing as cleric of Pharasma because Irian the inquisitor and I sit and talk about the goddess. Isn't that what inquisitors are all about? Converting others to their god or goddess' beliefs and enforcing their will. Sounds like a good path.
All done. Let me know if you catch anything I missed.
Here he is. Should have him finished pretty quickly this morning. Looking forward to gaming with you all.
A little more gear and some fluff and he will be good to go. |
