"Your arrogance will be your downfall, Killian."
"You attempt to shoot a knight in the back. For your cowardice you shall FALL."

Seeing that all his companions have moved forward to engage the knights Mihai will release his spell at Killian.
"Using children to do your dirty work? Leave now Killian before I crush your mind like a grape. I can see my future Killian. I know I will not die here, do you know yours?"
Mihai will survey the scene before him blankly, trying to determine the best course of action. "There is no need for violence here." Mihai calmly states hold up his hands."Let us go inside, sit, drink some tea and discuss the issue you have with our 'arrival' here.
While he is speaking Mihai will cast a shield spell.
Lambri, as far as Mihai's dislike of fanatical Saratens goes it is something he tries not to let affect his decisions as Echma but if you watched him carefully when there are reports of similar occurrences then you would see the disgust on his face. He would do whatever is required to protect the caravan, often this does mean keeping such people away. Also regarding the hybrid form dilemma,Mihai would be ambivalent, he has seen how you interact with Patrin and the other members of the caravan. He does not see you as a threat as he is a fairly good judge of character. After all everyone has their secrets.
Mihai raises an eyebrow at the arrogant waving of the knife. "We shall see what this 'Killian' is about. But make no mistake I go willingly and I do not take kindly to such posturing." With that Mihai will stride to the door and outside, taking in the view with equanimity. As he walks he pats the daggers on his person, checking they are still there, one on his belt and one concealed beneath his clothes.
Mihai will concentrate his energies inwards.
"If these drums are the harbingers of trouble then perhaps we will have to do something anyway. We will speak with your Killian and when he knows we mean no harm then perhaps we can look into the origin of these drums."
Mihai observes the terror of the young man and an expression of sympathy of sorrow and sympathy crosses his face. "We have experienced loss, young one. Know that we mean no harm to you or your people. If you have lost or are suffering in some way, perhaps we can aid you. We are no devils nor servants of darkness, just folk, folk that found themselves somewhere they know not but we are still willing to help." Mihai looks with kindness at the young man and gives a solid trusting glance to the older two.
Miahi sighs. "It seems their complaint is our method of arrival, something about being the work of devils."
Mihai thinks 'Just once, just once, I would like to have a nice meal in a nice house without the occupants trying to kill me.' Mihai thinks back to the times when he was invited to eat by Saraten inquisitors or Alvanen nobles trying to get rid of the irritating Calivan Echma asking to many questions about their activities. The only reason he was still alive is luck and paranoia, hence the detect poison cantrip.
Mihai looks around and sighs, thinks to himself, "I knew this place was too good to be true."
As far as the connection between Mihai and Lambri goes it is very likely that he would spend as much time as possible with Patrin, given Mihai is an obsessive perfectionist. As the son of the one who saved Miahis life he would give as much attention to Patrin as he can. Given this it is fairly likely he would have spent a good amount of time with Lambri as well. At least since she joined the caravan. And yes he would probably flirt with her, but as an absent-minded thing, more the the look of things. His nature doesn't leave alot of time for liesure activities.
2 Natural 20's in a row for bluff checks. I think he has found his purpose, lol.
Mihai looks around the room he will pay close attention to the decorations, trying to see if anything seems unusual. He will also examin the servants, for if you come here after some great battle then how did the servants come to be here.
He will try to do this subtly, so as not to make anyone uncomfortable.
Mihai watches the interaction between Tyrus, Shiruba and Mother Monisha with a grim look. He has seen the like many times throughout his life, the strong using their power on the weak and he does not like it.
"Tyrus, this seems a rather out of the way place for a man of your obvious skills, why do you languish here?" Mihai watches Tyrus with a curious expression on his face while attempting to steer his thoughts.
As you say I am psychic and I have this straaange mystical connection. I call it the in-ter-net.
Strangely.... Yes
I understand what you mean tho, when I was making my character I checked up Romani names to come up with mine. Mihai means 'leader' and Bo means 'family' so i took it to mean Leader of the family.
Mihai raises his eyebrows at the revelations this large man lays out so easily. "Well if we are a weeks long travel from Mistcrest then there are some strange happenings indeed. I shall have to examine the paths to determine if this was where we are mean to go." Mihai's bonks back agaist the stone wall. "Well at least we have not moved to the beyond, hard as Dead-Hand and his men may have tried. As long as we yet live there is room for improvement in our circumstances." While he sits Mihai will be drying the clothes of the closest person to him (10ft) using his prestidigitation. Probably Radin or Mila. If we need to act fast then the more we recover the better.
The Calivans are the gypsies are you sure you said the correct race?
Mihai attempts to gently put down Radin's pack (thunk) and slides down a wall near the fire. "Interesting trinkets. I will attempt some intelligent conversation once I stop freezing to death" Mihai will cast prestidigitation on himself to remove the water soaking him in an attempt to warm up faster.
Mihai will obligingly get Radin's pack from Mystery's saddle and stagger with it into the house.
Mihai begins to sing softly along with the music while looking around with interest.
Mihai trudges along behind the mountain man looking forward to be warm and dry. He keeps an eye on him tho, Mihai is no stranger to concealed weapons.
Did Mihai have any hint as to Lambri's nature while we were traveling? Because just having a wolf turn up out of nowhere and act like a trained guard dog is not something that happens every day.
Mihai stares vainly into the teeth of the storm, trying to determine what comes towards us, and find out whether it is friend or foe.
If Mihai gets a good look at it he will attempt to determine what it is.
"Please we mean no harm, may we take shelter from this storm in the house?"
Mihai is more than happy to have a pretty young lady with the caravan, keeps thing interesting.(wink, wink)
Mihai's got no problems with traveling with Lambri so long as she followed the ruls of the caravan. I'm assuming ost Calivan caravans would have a similar set of rules.
Galspiel is the common tongue
Right I forgot it was written in the character creation, only common and ethnic language at start +linguistics.
Just a question Gravescratches, I have been trying to decide what my last language should be but I don't know enough to have any clue. What would you suggest would be an appropriate last language? Edit: My mistake I actually have 4 more languages to pick (I forgot the Linguistics skills lol).
Hearing the mutterings and musings of those who went thru hell alongside him, Mihai shakes himself free of the fugue clouding his mind. "By the Blood, what happened to us? Last I remember I was fighting the Dead-Hands men and getting a sword blade shoved thru my stomach." Mihai gropes the hole in his clothes, while continuing to stagger towards the manor. Shaking his head Mihai beings to mutter curses and blasphemies on Dead-Hands head. "Whatever happened I will pay Dead-Hand back a thousand fold for what he did to my people, and the people of Mistcrest. I will NOT fail again."
The young Calivan staggers out of the water, barely noticing the other 4 emerging as well, like some waterlogged dead thing rising from the grave. He tries to use the magic in his blood to leech the water from his clothes but the shakes wracking his body prove too much to handle and his efforts prove useless. As he remembers all he has lost he begins to despair, then notices the manor thru the swirling snow. Wrapping his arms around himself he trudges towards it, hoping that he can make it before he freezes. And that it is not a figment of his imagination.
So just confirming I will be able to communicate to the Tonah once I get some more powerful divinations. For example the actual 'commune with nature' or the 'divination' spell.
Yes, I think I like the idea of the secret spirit. It suits my character and should be good for roleplay hooks. BTW If the echma interpret the energy flow, does that mean they have some ability to sense the Tonah?
Mihai doesn't have a lot on him when you think about it. And what he does have are what he uses for entertaining the villagers (and possibly for fleecing the nobles).
It is certainly an interesting idea Lambri, although I don't like that Mihai could have been manipulated like that it would explain why his caravan showed up at exactly the WRONG time.
Yep, having some sort of connection between the party, even if only a few hours long will make things somewhat easier. As far as nationalities we seem to have a few around, I'm from Australia personally.
Yeah, I'm cool with it.
Yeah it's cool, monk has always been a personal favorite of mine so I read up on it.
FOB: Starting at 1st level, a monk can make a flurry of blows as a full-attack action. When doing so, he may make one additional attack, taking a –2 penalty on all of his attack rolls, as if using the Two-Weapon Fighting feat. These attacks can be any combination of unarmed strikes and attacks with a monk special weapon (he does not need to use two weapons to utilize this ability). For the purpose of these attacks, the monk's base attack bonus from his monk class levels is equal to his monk level. For all other purposes, such as qualifying for a feat or a prestige class, the monk uses his normal base attack bonus. At 8th level, the monk can make two additional attacks when he uses flurry of blows, as if using Improved Two-Weapon Fighting (even if the monk does not meet the prerequisites for the feat). At 15th level, the monk can make three additional attacks using flurry of blows, as if using Greater Two-Weapon Fighting (even if the monk does not meet the prerequisites for the feat). A monk applies his full Strength bonus to his damage rolls for all successful attacks made with flurry of blows, whether the attacks are made with an off-hand or with a weapon wielded in both hands. A monk may substitute disarm, sunder, and trip combat maneuvers for unarmed attacks as part of a flurry of blows. A monk cannot use any weapon other than an unarmed strike or a special monk weapon as part of a flurry of blows. A monk with natural weapons cannot use such weapons as part of a flurry of blows, nor can he make natural attacks in addition to his flurry of blows attacks.
When you FOB your base attack increases to your monk lvl and you fight as if 2-weapon fighting. But only when using a full-round action to FOB, so single attacks and charges are at normal BAB.
You forgot to include the increase in Base Attack Bonus, from +3 for monk lvl to +5 for Flurry of Blows.
Btw Shiruba I was looking at your background when I noticed small mistake on your sheet. Did you forget you get full BAB when FOB?
I noticed the discrepancy between the two assumptions as well but realistically it is easily fixed. Most of the backstories are from BEFORE Mistcrest anyway so not much of a change. :) I was just considering that the attack may not have been a surprise but the timing may have been, and Mihai's caravan was a last ditch attempt by the civilians to have some enjoyment.
I have no problems either.
Thanks for taking me on, please tell me if you think there is any details missing that I may need and I look forward to playing with you.
