If we come in from the air, we would need to be able to keep Pilt in place so he doesn’t run under cover.
It also would be nice to have some sort of disguise so everyone doesn’t know it’s us doing it. They may not know Cynata, but given how we played blood pig yesterday (in game) they would know it was Mirela.
Other option. We do have all the blackjack items. That could make one of us really sneaky.
Mirela steps out trying to draw all eyes to her.
why do that be? It’s do be a perfectly good shelter and you All patrol here more often so it should be safer!
Not sure if you want me to roll something to distract so others can do what the want unnoticed… I’ll guess bluff to aid another on stealth? Bluff (aid another)to distract:1d20 ⇒ 11
So do we be doing this today or should we spend the night ‘ere again and let me pray for some fog cloud miracles?
On one ‘and I don’t want to stay ‘ere, but if we do, it’s easier to be sneaking up to the palace past the guards. Plus, I feel like Whisper may be really like exploring that garden.
She looks down at the garden again like it’s a puzzle piece that just doesn’t fit.
So do we be trying to sneak in to scout?
I'm don't be great at stealth, but if you do be giving me until tomorrow I can get a blessing that summons a fog cloud the might mask our approach. If we did be going in the morning, fog off the river may not seem odd.
Well Both are criminals. lord Glorio is just more subtle about it.
The Emperor is part mad. He is o sell ex with entertaining his people with a game called blood pig, and his people do seem to strike against others but we can’t tell why. He enforces discipline with a demonic Guillotine, but the pee we poke under his control seem to be content to stay there even when given a way out.
Lord Glorio is known to be a crime lord who has disappeared a number of people. Including the person who could lift this siege. I think he is responsible for some of the fires, but he does keep order….
So siding with either feels like it is a deal with the devil.
She looks down at the jungle.
Why do I suspect that the way down is in the jungle, but that if we enter that elephant is going to trumpet just like in the main hall…. Maybe if Whisper was to escape I was to chase her in there it might give us an excuse to search….
What about just sneaking around and trying to find this dungeon ourselves? It seems like people don't go down there often.
That skips the whole killing someone for no reason step.
Mira nods as she opens the door and holds it open for Wisper and anyone else who wants to to go through.
When it looks like nobody else is going through she closes the door behind her then walks to the rail overlooking the jungle and looks all around to see if anyone is in earshot. She is also looking down to see if anything interesting can be seen in the jungle below.
Assume same perception applies as nothing has changed so 17
Assuming she does not see anything she whispers to Cynara
I think we can talk ‘ere
I’m telling you there did not be any sighs of that. Why kill ‘im, if it will just make others rise up in ‘is place with ‘ate for you? If you do be letting us resolve this everybody wins.
We ‘ave just talked to the Emperor yesterday. I can tell you ‘e was not preparing ‘is mob to do anything but survive and entertain ‘im. You are not needing to worry about an impending attack.
If you do be wanting to keep it that way, may I suggest you let us find Vencarlo now, as my understanding is that the Red Mantis do be after him because ‘e might know of the key to breaking the siege of this district. The sooner we be doing that, the better off both your and the empire’s people do be.
We can seeking Vencarlo and the Senchal.
We know Vencarlo was attacked by the red manthis gang.
We visited the Emperor who while crazy does seem to be trying to help his people in his own way. We also found out from Salvador scream that: The Senchal was turned over to this guy, and Vencarlo seemed to have disappeared looking for him here.
What about the fires here? We saw the academy was burned on the way over. What happened to that, and the sword master Vencarlo? Did you rehome him and his students?
Lord Glorio, you do be the one who might be able to tell us what you are seeing ‘ere. ‘Ow, ‘as the district been doing? Did the cure to the plague be making it ‘ere?
Obviously the blockade is a problem, but is there other problem, like are there stores of food for everyone in your area?
A young tanned woman with red gold hair, speaks up from where she is sitting. Looking at her, She’s dressed like a high end merchant guard, in a fine breastplate, brown gambeson, dark leather leggings and well worn black boots. She carries a backpack, a very obvious bow on her back and quiver on her hip. One odd thing is she seems to have a twine necklace around her neck leading under her gambeson.
As she sits she he pets a wolf that is easily as tall as her as it sits on its haunches.
What do you be meaning you can feel us? This whole city do be in chaos. It do be ‘ard to feel anything but desperation from the people in Old Korvosa, outside this district that is. Do you be ‘elping Lord Glorio to keep order ‘ere?. She seems confused.
Yikes. I get a busy weekend and miss this restarting.
Let’s see:
Mirela a former street urchin brought up by her mom and “aunts” who are all prostitutes here in Krorvosa. After some serious trauma, She was smuggled out of the city and taught the basics of faith by a village priest out in the hinderlands of Varisia. She came back when bad things started happening to her aunts, determined to make sure children don’t suffer the way she did.
She’s clearly lower class and largely uneducated, and honestly not the greatest cleric. But she is quite proficient with her bow, and is slowly training her companion Whisper, A Huge gray wolf who she has raised from a pup. Mirela’s fiercely loyal to her friends and constantly looking out for ways to help the weakest in society.
Mechanically, she the party healer, with Whisper and her acting as skirmishers in combat. She also will sometimes buffs the others to get them out of unexpected combat challenges.
Mirela sits down and keeps Whisper at heel.
Thank you sir. I don’t be needing any food but Whisper ‘ere ‘as not eaten for over a day. If she could get something, I would be really grateful.
She pauses for a moment then continues.
What you ‘ave been doing for the people ‘ere is really impressive. The ‘ole island do be falling apart but you do keeping the light of community alive. I do be guessing a number of families are safe because of you.
Perception:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (13) + 15 = 28
Mirela glances around to make sure there is nothing to worry about when they come back, as well as to see if there is anything special about the statue of Chamidu. Then Mirela and Whisper follow the others up the stairs.
Mirela freezes and looks around her hand firmly on Whisper’s collar holding the crouching wolf from springing at the elephant.
perception to see threat:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (10) + 15 = 25
Lets try that again…. Maybe we look at the grounds or go out the front door and be looking for guards like the ones that did be bringing us in last night?
That do be a really good question.
In any case, we need to be very good guests and not touch anything if we can ‘elp it. Something just do be feeling odd about this place.
Mirela examines the symbolism to see if she can get any clues from all the carvings.
Religion:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28
Lets be going to the Entrance 'all and see if we can find someone to talk to. They did be saying that we would normally be going to the lounge, so we might meet someone there.
I know, this don’t be your fault. You did be doing what you thought was best.
But tell us, why was ‘e ‘ere in the old city when the bridges came down? Did ‘e be saying anything about the Queen and the King?
Mirela look sadly at the group of humans around her. She has to admit: They have some community here, even if it is run by a madman.
However Mirela watches to see if Salvatore is really as interested in staying here as the Emperor seems to think.
Sense Motive:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
No matter what Mirela says softly to Salvatore:
Would you be willing to be talking to us a little about your friend Neolandus, and what has been going on with 'im? Clearly both you and Orsini were very concerned about 'im.
That was Mirela’s plan. Continue to have Whisper salvage guys and trip them until we can score at will. And waking people with non-lethal needs magic or an hour. As I don’t think there is that long between rounds I assume they will reset with 6 after they drag the other two off the field. So I agree we will rapidly take the others down and so you can just hand wave the other rounds.
