Fun I am going to Planet Con the last Weekend of March
Jodi readies another arrow in her bow ready to draw and fire if so.ething comes her way.
"You okay Fargi?" Joxinsays with a hint of worry showing through her smile.
Jodi begins a soft soprano aria and points at Fargus.
"I could have jury-rigged something like a metal sheet attached to a pole with a leather edge to push them away"She says before she watches Fargus push stuff away and shakes her head. 'Also it was A GNOME idea first' She says with a playful bit of sticking her tongue out before she follows notching another arrow just incase
"They are probably over the wall." She looks at the others as she rubs her little chin."Wait does anyone have a broom? We could sweep the Caltrops away!"
JOxi grinds her teeth with her face clenched in anger as her right foot taps with nearly unearthly speed. Kobolds where not to be trusted but killed. They are the great evil of all gnomes and here she was in a party seeking to use the little Clan killers in this mission!!!
"Wait we are gonna trust him! Its a KOBOLD!" She says angry and her brow furrowed as she stomps her foot and glares. "FINE" She says knowing the history of these wretched creatures and what they have done to Gnomes!!!
"A KOBOLD!" She gasps remembering that they are the little evil creatures that steal Gnomish children in the night."Kill it!"
Joxi walks in with grace as she smiles looking around. Hearing the Whimpering she frowns and looks to the two scouts Fargus and Fyird, she points to the Bedroll with a raised brow and wonders what exactly she was supposed to do here and if she needed to be ready to shoot whatever was underneath.
"So what's next? A lava rock massage! Seriously seems more like a spa then a goblin home. Well once you get past the rats that is" she says with a giggle as she looks at the others ready to love on from there.
Joxi sticks her tongue out as she fires another arrow at the steam beast.
"Hey Steamy this is no time for a facial!" She blurts sending an arrow his way.
MOves to look in and readies her shortbow to fire.
Joxi looks over Fyrids hands and points out some stuff."You know you should turn this right and press here" She says with a smiling face.
Oh okay
Joxi waits with an arrow ready just incase.
Joxi follows with her bow ready just in case she needs to fire a shot.
"Well ancient Gnome Proverbs talk of Garl Glittergold and a variety of other of the prestigious Gnome Pantheon have found clever and cunning ways around them!"She says as she stands looking at the others before she readjusts her grips on her shortbow
"So we could be creeping along in a den of an Ancient Sleeping Dragon. That could be fun!" She says pulling her hand from her bow to scratch her head. "Or it could bring us firey death so eh its fifty fifty shot"
"Nope,but I could try and Hum a few bars?" She says with a giggle before she looks over at Jaynie. "Say Jaynie, are you okay?"
"True, and yet both can lead to glory or death, or both." Joxi says slipping to the side to hopefully be free of the possible errant trap to not get her too. "Me I like to be cautious and well do that thing we all should like to do..called breathing!" She says with a bit of sass her bow and arrow ready to fire just in case.
humming to her self she follows the dwarf and blinks as she watches him pull the spear free."You know you are either brave or foolhardy." She says looking around the room and then back at the party."If its a trap its too late now"
Joxi intakes air making a slight whistle before she speaks."Well, these goblins must have had one helluva dinner party!" she says as she looks to the others. "So do you step into the remains of a slaughter or do we walk through it? I doubt you all want to turn around I mean right. I know I don't, besides look at that tower, I mean its just begging for us to see whats in it, like those ladies who sing to lure you in. Can't remember what they were called. I read it in my Granduncles library, something-something Ren? No that's not right, is it? Oh well, so which one?" She said quickly her curiosity getting the better of her. Something that sadly the gnome had yet to curb or temper at times like this.
Joxi shakes her head as she knocks another arrow and has her bow at the ready while she stalks.
"Yeah let's let every rat and goblin know our location" she whispered a bit angrily.
"Well its good to note that Rats do not take kindly to arrows being shot at them, or have mystical energies lobbed at them much either" She said with a giggle before she began to look around.
"Ahh Rats!" She exclaimed giggling to her self as she pulled her bow and shot an arrow.
JOxi looks at the rope and winces."Okay not the best at this but You'll catch me if I fall right?' She says reaching out to grab the rope and climb down.
"Exciting!! Mysterious Goblins, magical apples, shrouded ravines all seem the start of some wonderful fantastical tale!" She said with the exuberance of a child as she watches along side her compatriots!
"That is aweful they just up and left! Anyways we will see what happened and bring back what you need be it the rings or your children!" She says sitting crosslegged on the barstool now after a slight climb.
"Yes that is what I needed to know. As for these apples, seems interesting. Wonder if those goblins might let me see one!" She says with a giggle before looking at Fyird. "So you want a magical apple that cures all things? Are you sick?"
"The local fare my good tavern keep! I'd love to taste the flavor of the local spirit." She says with a smile as she looks to her party members."So my fellow travellers aside from this interest in the Sunless Citadel what do we call ourselves or do we have some goal in mind?" She asks climbing onto a chair.
"Kobolds are pesky little bastards!" Joxi says putting her bow back to where it belongs. "Once fought a Kobold at my village once, they tried to take our mine. Thought it would be a good place to plot and scheme against all us good folk. Instead, it just leads to there doom. Them Kobolds will never learn to try and encrouch into our lands. Dumb reptiles" she says followed by a spit and a weird hand gesture over her heart.
"Not a problem, just remember to pay it forward. Especially to a gnome, a gnome if properly appreciated will grant you want you to need" she says citing an old proverb.
"Hello Shara, Hi Evita. Sorry about the orcs. I am Joxi Wigglefits, a storyteller. Here." Joxi introduces herself and hands Shara a dagger or two and some slings. "Take these. The road is dangerous and you always need something to try and defend yourself." She says as she even hands one to Evita and smiles as she uses a bit of magic to pull a coin from behind the girl's ear.
She fires off another shot
JOxi pulls her bow out and fires. "Orcs! Ug don't let them get close if they get blood or sweat or drool on you it stains and the smell is incredibly hard to get out"She says firing off an arrow.
Jodi took in it all. She was more then an entertainer she was SO much more. She had come to find someone and observe. Now she did love a good story and with the dwarf Fargus telling a great volume of tales, she couldn't pass up the opportunity to tell some of her tales.
"Ooo..OOo..Me I'll come, I have what it takes to fight drow!" She says waving her hand as if in some formal classroom and yet shifting and fidgeting like she was a mere child.
Joxi eyes the girl strangely then shakes it off. She notes the odd behavior but smiles anyways knowing that she has to have aid in this endeavor. "So to those who are more familiar with this trek from here to Oakhurst, pray tell what sorts of dangers may we encounter?" She asks curiously seeking to get as much information as possible so she can be prepared.
"Well seems we are heading the same direction and who doesn't love travel companions, Am I right. I mean the road is boring when you have no one to talk to or swap stories, Right?" She says with a smile from below the lip of the table. "I don't know if you heard but the names Joxi, I am a teller of tales and singer of songs! A walking gnomicipedia of weird and esoteric knowledge. At least that is what I will become with a little more experience." She says earnestly
Hearing Oakhurst she walks over to the table and smiles. "Oakhurst eh? I am heading there myself for a special mission. If you want I can help you by tagging along?" She says cheerfully
"Well hello there maid, I must ask what do you recommend, anything bubbly? I do love a drink with bubbles as it tickles the nose along with the tongue! You should try it"She says with a merry smile and warm cheeks. Which was always a great cover for a gnome. "What say you fine sirs, any recommendations?Wait are you not drinking drinks with bubbles? You should have bubbles!" She says cheerfully. Which was always her default setting
Joxi has kept quiet and too herself for awhile watching the interactions and trying to garner who among them are capable.As she does she ends up heading to the bar. "So whats everyone drinking, Names Joxi by the way Please too meet you" She says with a smile
