![]() Lalavonvrei gently pulls Cass away from the body, handing her off to Beth and Frank. He turns to the others and mutters, "What do you guys think? Some sort of draining? Vampire, Succubus?" His hand rests anxiously on the magic pouch concealing his rifle and glances at the door, "Think the bouncers will give us any trouble?" ![]()
![]() The Longstrider nods in agreement with Racine's disapproval, "Cassandra, this place isn't safe. These 'friends' of yours are up to something, and it's not some common drug ring." He places a hand on Cassandra's shoulder gently, "At the very least, let us stay with you and help find this Antonio fellow." ![]()
![]() Lala quickly moves to join Racine as Cassandra disappears through the door, his long legs easily closing the distance. He spots the mage's gestures and waits patiently for the distraction, trying to slip into the VIP room right behind Racine once she starts moving. You guys are gonna notice I like taking ten whenever I can, cause I'm gonna do it again for a DC 22 Stealth check. ![]()
![]() Coming up short on a good vantage point, Lalavonvrei grumbles to himself, but quickly moves to keep an eye on Cassandra once he spots her. He'd normally try to blend in with the crowd, but the collective trance made that seem like a far less effective option. He settled for simply keeping some distance as he makes sure she's safe. ![]()
![]() Lalavonvrei watches the crowd in confusion before Racine's warning told him to sharpen his eyes. As Caedus asks for Cassandra, the Longstrider begins looking for their lost friend diligently. He glances around the room and tries to find any spots hidden in the shadows of the club he could use to climb to a better vantage point and disappear from sight. Taking 10 on Perception (Beats DC 23), Stealth (sets a DC 22 Perception roll), and Climb (Beats DC 19) in an attempt to find and reach an adequate makeshift sniper's nest while no one's looking. If he can find a ladder to a second floor or somewhere with makeshift handholds, that would ideal. Otherwise, he's not going to try climbing smooth walls. ![]()
![]() Lalavonvrei joins in on the toast, but declines any of the cake. He had a love/hate relationship with sweets, enjoying the food, but wary of both the nutritional value. As Frank kept Beth entertained, the slender elf set himself down next to Cassandra, and for once thankful for his effeminate profile allowing him to slip into the spot with ease. He lowers his head towards the birthday girl and mutters, "Is everything alright?" ![]()
![]() The Longstrider scowled again at the affectionate nickname. If it were anyone else, he'd have given them an earful, but Lalavonvrei couldn't justify such behavior towards Cassandra, especially not on the girl's birthday. "You know I don't like that name..." He mutters, "Where is it you think you're dragging us anyway?" ![]()
![]() Sense Motive: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16 Typically, Lalavonvrei carried his rifle in his bandolier, tucked into one of its magic pockets out of sight. However, with the seedy nature of the neighborhood Cassandra called home, he thought it best to keep it visible, slung over his shoulder. Better to dissuade the troublemakers immediately than to wait until they were trading blows. As the house came into view, the long-limbed elf swings off his horse and leads it the rest of the way. As the others knock, he ties the reins to keep his mount from wandering off. He gives Cassandra a critical once over with sharp emerald eyes before pulling his poncho away from his face to give a sincere smile, "It's good to see you again, Cassandra, Bethany. I hope we haven't found you at a bad time. Happy Birthday." ![]()
