Tired of waiting on the slack jawed empress to resond he spins about on his heel and marches towards Vigars seat at the high table. He comes to a stop before it and kneels.

Sees Maven appearing to be lost in a daze he waves at her and motions for her to come to his table and sit at the open space beside him. When she just stares off for another moment he gets up and walks over to her. Come on girl we finally got Dwunderbran calmed down and everything is relaxed. You look peakish come have a bit of a bite and get off your feet then you. Will feel better. And if anyone bothers you tellem I will plant mah hammer in between their eyes. The SkyBreakers might be all but gone but as long as I'm left none will harm ye at our table our hearth. No I have something to attend too. Have a seat and I will return shortly. He looks over at her high arsedness the granite empress and sighs he knows his duty. After a moment he gathers himself and walks over there. Greetings to ye. I am here on behalf of the priests of Kols. We wish to offer our condolences on the loss of our kin for all dwarves are of one stone as Father made us. And I heard what you said about respecting customs and if ye mean it ye will stop holding court over the body of Vigars father its down right rude. He hasn't said anything as he is a great dwarf and far more tolerant than the likes of I but that don't change the truth. If you wish to talk to folk then do so come down off your throne and mingle for we are all one blood here. All grieving for our dead. But don't make this funeral in to a powerplay it will earn you no friends. Having said what he felt Kol would want him to say he turns without waiting for a response and walks back to his table rejoining the rest.

Its not that I don't feel for her loss the loss of any of our people is a great blow. And I know what it is to lose a parent to early but still there's something you just don't do. Ah well lets leave her alone and get on with honoring the dead. More whiskey? He listens to Dwunderbran. No I haven't dealt much with other races and me father were a clan head that don't make my blood better than yours. The StoneLord up there doesn't think his blood is better than yours. Nay he sits at the high seat cause we put him and those before him there cause we think he will do a better job than us. And be just and fair. So no I have never seen the like before.

Nods a bit. I know about smoking in the Darklands. I was Gladdringgar once a champion I went deeper than any dwarf has been and made it back to boot. But I know what ye mean I spent time in deeps too defending them and teaching beardlings. But this this is still disdisgraceful. I bet you she wouldn't stand ifin it was her father being given back to the stone. Magnus just shakes his head at all that is wrong with the world the dead human god, runelords, devils, lichkings, and all the rest. If she's the best of the people they had over there no wonder they fell. A leader should be able to lead she looks like she might break if faced with anything more complicated than what to wear. Look at the way she looks around its not taking in strange sights its a lack of nerve.

Shakes his head at Dwunders misremembrance then decidea its not worth a other brawl. Aye something like that. And Talon that looks like a mighty chewy beer ye got there with them wood chips in it. Come have some mead and whiskey. He looks over to Angrin. Aye tis very odd and more. And as for Miss Granite Arse how can she come in here to a funeral and set up court tis not decent and its insulting to the dead. She acts like she's better than Vigar when she's naught but a refugee like so many others. I have half a mind to go over their.

Thank you much the friend. I haven't had one of these in a hundred years since I won a box as prize back when j was forty. Magnus clips the end and slowly rolls ot over the heavy wooden match taking short sharp puffs to ensure an even light. He then leans back in his chair savoring the flavor and thanking Kols Dwunderbran kept these sealed so his flavor didn't flavor them. Now that is a mighty fine stoogie there Dwunderbran. Best I ever had I think. He pours himself a few fingers of applejack to sip with the the cigar and looks over at Stubs.

Stares at Daelric confused and shakes his head. Tis only whiskey. He turns to Stubs. Well if you don't think its needed then so be it. And I don't know who she is other than I have never seen a dwarf try to act so far above her brothers in Stone. Its almost like she is an elf.
Male Dwarf Inquisitor 2
Looks over to Daelric and Dwunderbran. You might say that Dwunderbran. But I think we might should make a toast. If we be friends now? Passes Daelric and Dwunderbran a tumbler of whiskey snagged from a near by tray. To friends. May the new prove true as the old. May the old always remain close. And most of all to the absent may they never be forgotten.

Well my friend I figured there was more to it than that. No need to be modest. But I caught what you said. He looks at the foreign dwarf and shakes his head. She comes in here like the StoneLord himself last of a fallen hold and she wants to grant us audiences? I bet she has never lifted a hammer in anger let alone the forge. She should be seeking and audience with our lord not given them to us. She's no better than any of us. He keeps shaking his head then grabs a flagon of the mead he favors and looks over at the other clergymen. I suppose we should go pay our respects to her mightyness and give her our condolences for her loss. But all dwarves are equal ifin she won't speak to us proper like I'm walkin off.

Since Dwunder seems to have abated his fighting Magnus gets back up and starts brushing himself off. Then sighs and casts create water of his head to rinse himslef clean. He then returns to his table before turning to Stubs. I would love to hear your story. And I'm sure Marla would to she is a chronicler for our race.
@Waydon nice but Mini likes heros I was already nixed on the Le thing myself lol. @psyblade I like the hunter thing that's neat. I hope one of you archer types get in to hang out with me in the back lol. @Sethran Remember we aren't in greyhawk anymore unless you somehow got moved from their to here which would be a awesome story.

See that's the things all of it isn't about mechanics. In an rp fight like this you could knock out a 20th lvl fighter. Its about what feels right. And you don't tell people what happens to their characters you say what your trying to do and make it work together. Otherwise your taking their ability to play their character from them. Also sometimes they have an idea of how thier character reacts to something else if you try to force an action it interferes with their fun. :) /rant He gets racked back into a hold and can't seem to squrim free as he has no leverage. His only response is to call for help. Help Daelric she's tyring to let the smelly one rub his cockleshells on me help brother.
