"I will take one look below for the items we seek. Who is with me? Time to go!"
Horef using his darkvision coupled with his unique ability to locate hidden objects and speed decides to make a rush further below deck in search of the tablets and further treasure immediatly following his speech.
Horef recognizing the path ahead identified by the girl lets Savages beast lead through the door then he immediatly uses his falchion to follow in behind.
perception:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15 +2 more if traps,and/or hidden objects.
Walking across town and now upon the contacts directions to Lubor's Imports Horef contemplates the many different possibilities that lie ahead. He turns to the others with questions but is stopped by the sound of whimpering from within the shop.
He peers inside to see the placed turned on its head. He immediatly pulls his falchion out to the ready. That's when he hears the girl.
he whispers to the others"Follow me."
Horef moves inside falchion first looking around as he approaches the girl.
Horef blends well with the rabble of this town as he is quite rough and not well dresssed himself. Horef remains cloaked while sitting at the table and stands with his back to minimal traffic while listening to Osprey. Before speaking Horef checks the crowd for listenors or people paying a little extra attention to our details.
perception:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
"Osprey is it, it seems you might be leaving out a little information on Du Moire, his boys, and business partners. Is there anything you might add or might be able to provide to catch him besides Lubor?"
diplomacy:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
"I can't recall anything about this town or people, anyone else? hmm let me think."
My entry of Horef was missing some information. He is in Ustalav as a merchants apprentice. As a half orc he knows that disclosure of his heritage is not in his best interest and has taken every precaution to prevent others from gaining this knowledge.
His aid to the merchant in the form of appraisal of goods, linguist skills, local knowledge, and lock management has provided help to the Professor in several studies prior to his death.

Horef's father was a travelling merchant selling his goods wherever people were buying it at the expense of Horef. They would often sleep outside under the stars just outside the city. Horef did whatever he could for his father in terms of cooking, and bringing people to the merchant cart. Horef picked up his rogue skills early in life first picking the pockets of the customers without his fathers knowledge so Horef could get things he wanted (a good meal, nice clothes, or even a lady) in the cities. With time his soft skills became as much a part of his new trade as his technical ability. He picked up several languages such as Hallit, Orc, Goblin, Draconic, and Giant over the years trading with his father in the wild lands.
Today Horef works alone as his father died while working along the river ways of the Qadira/Taldor border. He has retired the merchant cart and picked up jobs wherever he can get a decent payoff. He has worked along side other merchants, has dealt in arms trade with mercanaries and recently did some courier work in the Zho Mountains.
Motivation:
The rest of his story continues in the small town of Heldren where he contemplates leaving the South in search of his mother, an orc, whom his father often spoke about leaving behind. He has little information to go on except some old letters his father kept that are written in orcish by his mother. Alas moving on will provide new contacts, new opportunities, and better chance of wealth.
