All right I'll work out a Warlord tonight. I got a wee bit of experience playing them. Maybe a dwarf warlord then.

I could bring in a cleric, paladin or a rogue, if need be. Looks like your set with strikers. I'll be checking in to see if you end up 1 short.
Got any room for another player. You can place me on the alternative list. I would be a rogue or wizard.
What are you going to run? I am available to play a v3.5 or v4. Although at this time I would probably lean toward a v4. Let us know..
I am taking full moves to try and catch up to him to get him in a line of sight if so I may take a shot at him.
Mon wants to visually look for exits at the building he is pointing at and yells to Kly. "Keep an eye on that building. When security gets here tell them to search it. Grel here says there was a man on the roof. I am going to chase after the man who ran around that corner.Give ma back up when you can Just listen for me I'll be yelling." Mon points in the direction indicated by Grel and takes off in that direction yelling "Stop murder!!" When Mon gets to the corner he peaks around before running, to see if there is any one there waiting in ambush.
As Mon is quickly gets up he tries to sense the guys motive. Mon wonders were the guards are that he has been calling for and were his back up is. "I have been calling for them and they should be here." He tells the man. "You still have not told me your name."
Mon yells for assistance. Then he stares in to the eyes of the perp. "Why are you running stranger? Tell me your name now, or you will not see the light of tomorrows day. The guards are on there way and you will be arrested, or I will kill you now. You choose..."
Mon charges at the unknown assailant and attempts a grapple Grapple Check (1d20 2=12)
Mon will keep moving until he can catch up to him and attempt a grapple.
Ok Mon will move his full 30 feet. I will then attempt my grapple move..To try and tackle him from behind. Original grapple roll - Grapple Check (1d20 2=12)
Most importantly you are safe thats is freakin awesome.
Zoe,
Zoe did you want me to re-roll me grapple attempt after my initiative or keep the one I already posted?
My initiative Initiative limping man (1d20 4=20)
Mon is very wary about shooting somebody in the city. So he keeps yelling at the man "Halt, Citizen Arrest. Guards stop that man." All while keeping up with the man. "Maybe it would be wiser to tackle the person rather then shoot him." Mon thinks to him self and picks up his pace. He attempts to trip the man and knock him down as soon as he can.
"Yes, get back up." Mon shouts as he tries to approach the limping man to within 30' and draws his bow. Mon repeats his statement "Halt there, Citizens Arrest. Halt or I'll shoot." Intimidate limping man to halt (1d20 2=6)
Mon notices a man limping away from the Rusty Dragon and thinks for a second. "Should I go back and ask Ameiko...? Naw." Instead he shout to Valken and anybody else. If Valken is still at the door working as the bouncer. "I AM GOING AFTER THAT GUY." Mon points in the hobbling man direction. Mon pulls his bow and takes off after him. Mon shouts in the mans direction "HALT THERE, CITIZENS ARREST."
After looking outside Mon returns and approaches Ameiko. "I noticed a bit ago, that you were talking with the gentleman who had been shot. Is there any thing you can tell me about him? Or maybe why? I would like nothing more then to find this perpetrator and relinquish him to the authorities. I am trained as a ranger, although I am young, I am sure I can be of help."
Mon says a loud to anyone who maybe near enough to notice him wipe his eye "Geez this place is a bit dusty. Must have got some thing in my eye." Only then he looks up and notices the man Ameiko was talking to slump over. He jumps to his feet and shouts over to Valken. "VALKEN CHECK OUT SIDE THE DOOR. We got an ambush. Look for a runner." Mon see if he can tell where the arrow came from.
Mon then gets up and looks for anyone inside that might be of suspect.
Nobody does so Mon runs outside to see if he can notice anything out of place.
He can't really tell outside either if any thing is out o order. Mon then waits at the door to see if anybody else notices anything and keeps his eyes posted and ears open.
Mon sees if he can catch a word. But there must be to much noise from the crowed. Turns to see if he can catch a word from Ameiko to the Man. (1d20 6=9)
Mon notices Ameiko smile and head to the stage. He eagerly anticipates a good show.
"I'm not a fisherman, but we are all fish in the barrel of the world." Mon smirks at the come back.
"Aye, we are what we make of ourselves indeed. I have learned in my short life its not what we are now but what we intend to become in the future that predicts our path. Sounds like to me that we have a small party here and I would never turn down a helping hand. My father told me once teach a man to fish and he'll always have food to eat. Mom smiles You look like a smart fellow, you must have some knowledge that we can gain from. So welcome Kly.You'll have to forgive my friend here Valken, as he takes his job seriously as he should. You see we've got to keep the order around here with the festival approaching and all. You never know who'll come walking through that door. Don't worry to much about it though, once you get to know him he'll have your back if a scuffle was ever to erupt. So grab a seat and tell me about your self. Why would a fine gentlemen like you want to help me, even if it is to see the forest? You know the Orcs live in the hills and besides you just might develop a taste for Orc blood??? Or are you a man who has an undying need for adventure" As a big smile creeps across Mon's face.
"Aye, where there are Orcs you can find me there blasting arrows into their thick skulls. They are after all my favored enemy. I only live each day in hopes of killing yet another. They are a scourge that plagues my beloved forest. How about you? I don't think I got your name? Are you here for the festival?" Mon says to Kly.
It's ok, I deserve to be busted. I didn't know I could retrieve an old roll. I actually ended up making 3 of them. My browser kept freaking out after it updated with the last Microsoft virus... security update. It had a major conflict with Zone Alarm my fire wall. And then it freaked out and froze. I reposted my first roll. Now that I know I can do that, it will certainly never happen again. My apologies.
Skill check to perform storytelling. (1d20=4) After Mon finishes his story, he looks up to see many of the people talking amongst them selves, paying no attention to his story. " I must have bored them to tears" he thought to him self. He practically trips over his own feet walking back to the bar. Sits down and buries his face in his warm mug of ale. He turns to Ameiko, "My lord, I must apologizes for my boring story. I will pay full price for my room if you would even let me stay here after that horrendous rendition. I feel as though I have done a dishonor to my village and my elders." He turns back to his ale hoping she won't have him thrown out.
I feel like it was the first time in front of people...What do you think? How I do?
Why yes I do. Mon smiles. Mon Soul steps up to the front of the room to tell his story and thinks to him self. "This maybe a day when my story will reach far and deep across the land, better make it good". Mon grabs a chair at the front of the room sits down and pulls is hood far over his head so as his eyes could barely be seen and drew in a large breath. “It was a cold dark night, a biting cold that makes one pull the sheets right up to your eyes. The wind cut through the air like a frosty arrow in flight, fridged the night air was. But none the less a quiet one…. or until that is when we heard the screams pierce through the night. Like none I have heard in my life time. It was a sound the sent the hairs on my neck straight out. I jumped out of bed I yell for my elders. “Ma, pa what was that?” “Stay out of sight and take cover boy.” Pops replied. “They may be out there.” He mumbled to him self, loud enough for me to hear. But I couldn’t resist. "I had enough training at that time, you see, for me to be a little bit of help." I thought. More likely though, I would be of more trouble then anything. So I stayed back a bit as my father approached the door, slowly he did, walking so quietly I could hear the wind blow from under the door. All of a sudden…Mon jumps out of his chair and throws back his hood with arms out reached… the door flew open with a mighty crash and there in the door way lumbered a massive being one I had never seen before. With a huge club the size of my fathers head, it grunted and growled. My father yelled “Run for it, I’ll hold him here.” With a mighty thrust of his sword he pierced the creatures chest, it reeled back and crumpled to the ground. Ma and I ran to the back side of the house, I peeked out of the window. “Oh by Eristal, there are more in the back” I yelled. Ma spoke an eleven dialect that sent one of the creatures on fire running back across our farm and into the woods. Just then a pane glass, from the windows along side of us, shattered and Ma crumpled to the floor. A large rock lay on the ground next to her, her forehead was bleeding badly. “Oh, no” I cried, “Ma has been hurt”. But no reply came back from Pa. I ran around the corner and observed Pa outside fight fiercely for his life. I grabbed my bow and ran for the door; Pa was surrounded by 3 of the beasties. He took a mighty slash, slitting the throat of the first one and on the follow through pierce the gray flesh of a second. But his sword got stuck; I could see him struggling with it. As the first one fell to the ground grabbing his neck, the third one circled around and laid a might blow on to my father. All I could think was NO, NO, NO!!!! Pa fell to the ground. Thinking to my self quickly, "only with the guidance of Eristal could I pay this beasty back dearly." I knelt down on one knee, drew my arrow as swiftly as I could. I yelled at the beasty, “For Muon Soul…” The creature turned to face me. He was a bit more then 10 yards away. He raised his club, for what seemed 10 feet above his head. He came barreling toward me and a mighty roar came forth from his huge mouth. I prayed and pulled back on the bow string as hard as I could. At about 7 yards I let the arrow fly, so true it flew that I knew Eristal was with me. The arrow sang through the air, punched through the roof of the creature mouth and stuck in his head. His last step dragged through the dirt and he fell with a mighty thud at my feet. I heard his last breath gurgle. I knelt there in terror, “Were there more of them?” I thought. Trying to figure out what had just happened. It was so quick. There was not much else I could do. Just then I noticed a large group running toward the house with torches blazing. I heard eleven voices in the distance but I was in absolute shock. I stood up and looked around to make sure no other beasties were close. As the group approached I had them in my sights with an arrow drawn. “Don’t shoot!!” one of them yelled. Though my mind was racing and my hands were shaking I eased the bow back slack. The person in front turned out to be Lucan, one of the town heroes. I breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing him. There were others too, including one of my teachers, Aneurin. An expert fighter, proficient in many weapons, some of which I had never heard of. Lucan told me that the group of “Orcs”, as he called them, had attacked the village. They had killed many of the residence as they had been taken by surprise. He told me that I must come back in to town with them for safety sake. So I gathered the few things I could carry and went into the village. A couple of my parents friends recognized me and shouted in rejoice. Elated, they were, in that I was still alive and took me in to their house and took care of me. After that my life took a different turn. I wanted to know every thing about the creatures, known as Orcs. I trained with Aneurin day and night for more then a few months. I learned different techniques on how to kill them and to speak their language so they would know who it was that would be there to slaughter them. Aneurin was an excellent teacher. In fact Valken there, Mon points over to Valken was one of his top students and excelled in the great sword. I later found out that Aneurin had just arrived days ahead of the attack. He was an adventurer who sought out many different things, treasures as well as knowledge. Oddly though, he had acquired an item that did not look of eleven hand work. I had noticed it while training with him. I asked him about it but he wished not to speak of it and only responded with “Stay focused on your training. Do not be led astray by such idle thoughts.” So I thought no more of it. Only a month ago and when I heard of the Festival in Sandpoint, I had requested the counsel of elders to get approval to come here and seek assistance with our plight. I received their blessings and packed my belongings. At the same time Lucan, Aneurin and a few other men from the village left to seek out the rest of the clan of Orcs. I only pray they make it back safely. So here I stand asking all those that are brave and kind enough to help us…will you?” After telling his story he step down and heads back to the bar and takes a big swig from his now warm ale. Mon turns to Ameiko, "Was that worth a discount?" and smiles.
I can use a discount on a room for the night. Yes indeed I would like one for the night and maybe the following night as well. Plus a sample of the winning meal I wouldn't miss that for the world. Sounds like this is the place to be. Good Ale, good food and a soft bed, can't beat that. Just let me know what time you want me to start flapin my gums and I'll tell my story.
Hello Ameiko, I am Mon Soul and if its a cooks challenge your going to win, I can hardly wait to sample the delicacy. I have heard you maybe willing to trade a story for a meal? Mon displays a big grin and raises his eye brows after hear about the cooks challenge. I would also like to get a room for the night as well, that is if one is available.As Valken said I come from the Mierani Forest. I do have a tale to tell but am afraid it is not pleasant, how ever there are heroes involved. I was also informed you may have some work. I may not be a strong as Valken but I can hold my own.
Valken, I think I have crafted most of my story to tell for dinner. I think I can tie in Aneurin with finding an artifact [maybe it was stolen from the Orcs??]and coming back to the village with it, only to have the orcs attack the village a couple of days later. Now many months later and a month before the festival, I receive the blessing from the village elders to come to Sandpoint and at the same time Aneurin leaving the village with others, which leaves me hoping they will return safely. So the time frame would be anywhere from 4 - 6 weeks ago they had departed the village to search out the Orcs. What do you think??
Such terrible news, every where I turn it seems some one close has devistating news. But it looks like the gods of fate have put us on a similar path. May your parents as well find safe passages to the neither world.
I really do appreciate the support.
"Eyi, to friendship" replies Mon
"No doubt, this being such a respectable place and all" as Mon takes in the sights and fragrant smells of cooking meats. "I'll have to get some food in trade for my story tonight. Although you've heard most of it, I have a bit more to elaborate about." Mon turns around to face the bar to see if Ameiko is nearby so he can inquire about a story telling trade.
I would love nothing more then to share my story. But tonight we only remember the heroes and the adventure of such. Yes, the tales of the wood elves are a many. Long lived we are and try our best we do to fill them with caring for the forest and ridding them of the evil that plagues them from time to time.
Eyi, at the time quite unbearable. But after such a long travel and many months to come to terms with the disaster, that those that lost there lives are to be remember as the heroes of my village. I really appreciate your hospitality but here are 2 silver for the ales as I wish not to take anything more then what I have earned. Say by the way Rella, I was told that Ameiko may have work that needs to be done. That is one of the reasons I am here. Do you know if that is indeed the case?
Darn it, I was trying some how to make it tie in with mine. Maybe he left the village in pursuit and my news is no longer valid. Since we have ties to a similar place I am sure the Zoe can do some thing if need be. Also I am not completely aware of which letter he was talking about. I guess it could have been an older one. You could respond back with that. I'll just say I left before hearing anything else. I am almost always on line. I'll try not to respond to quickly...;-)
Mon thinks he may recognize a human sitting at the bar nursing an Ale. He approaches him and asks "Do I know from my home in the Mierani Forrest? Maybe you trained there? Yes, I think I knew your mentor...hmm could you be Valken?" I am here first, to enjoy the festival. But sadly I have some grave news from my forest. We were over run by a small horde group I believed to be Orcs. We managed to kill most of them, Aneurin fought valiantly and took his fair share of the kill, but some of the Orcs managed to get away. They killed my parents as well as many others from the village and now, well, I am looking for help. Someone such as your self, with great power, with whom I can join forces with and rid these evil doers. What say you old friend it has been a while and I regret bringing such grave news. But by the grace of Erastil we will avenge them. Besides I am sure that Aneurin would love to see you again. You know Aneurin was severely injured during the battle. It took quite some time for him to recover. He told me to let you know all is well with him now. He had got your message but could not respond due to the circumstances and being injured. He had returned from his adventures just in time to help us fight the Orcs. But enough of that for now. We should drink to his health and for safe passage to the elven spirit world for my parents. We deal with those Orcs when we get the blessings of Erastil. Now it is time for the festival and time for us to rekindle our friendship. Bar keep an Ale for me and my long lost friend Valken.
After talking with the bar keep Mon heads over to the Rusty Dragon to see what jobs maybe available and also to see if he may find any other willing souls for his endeavors.

Yes indeed. I like the part about seeing you when training with your mentor. I'll approach it from that angle. I just went in to the Rusty Dragon to ask to see Ameiko for work and to see if there is any body worth recruiting for my mission. Looks like I'll find you there or vice versa.
After talking with the bar keep Mon heads over to the Rusty Dragon to see what jobs maybe available and also to see if he may find any other willing souls for his endeavors. Mon arrives at the Rusty Dragon and asks the bar keep "Is Ameiko available?" Mon takes a good look around to see if there maybe any one who looks like a good person to ask for their help.

Very nice
After stopping in at the White Deer Inn, Mon tells the bar keep " I am looking for a few good people to help me rid my home village of a small horde of evil doers that have killed many. Have you seen any that maybe worth talking to?" Mon also asks for some paper to make a few small signs to hang about town stating that he is looking for a few good people to help his cause.
Mon enters in through the front door and looks for a seat at the bar and asks the bar keep for a room for the night and a hot meal.
Mon_soul: Where is your skill in gather Info on your character sheet? I don't see it listed. (how are you getting +8?)Oops I thought it would be a search. I looked it up and will add that to my profile. I have a Cha of 10=0 bonus. Would you like a 1d4 for a general search or a 1d10? Does my post look correct?
Correction on Gather Information - Time duration = 5 How much time will it take Mon Soul (1d4+1=5)

Mon Soul enters from the north in search of the White Deer Inn for a room before the festival. After the destruction in his village he is in search of others who may help him in his quest to quell the disorder cause by the hordes that trashed his home. After getting his room he goes to festival street to take a gander at tomorrows festival. He looks for any thing that may catch his eye in the way of other travelers that may be worthy of joining up with and introducing himself to.
Oh oops I don't have those books is that a prerequisite? But I suppose since I was brought up outside the village I would be a country born or a lone wolf since both of my parents were killed. I do not know what those benefits are though. I found the players guide down load |
