It was a valiant attempt sorry i wasnt up to it. Thanks for running it Choon!
"Keep him alive, I have a few more questions for him. If you would." He began already admiring their enemy just a scosh more. It was a smart plan infiltrating each of the local gangs, and even leaving them there, It seemed their foe was a plotter and a planner.
He moved quickly grabbing the mans left wrist while brandishing the dagger. He slammed it down hard onto the top of his hand crucifying it with the dagger.
"I dont intend to kill you if you dont talk, I intend to drag out the pain inflicted upon you until Lloth herself comes down to gleefully watch your pain. I am going to hurt you until you last breaths are almost spent... then I will have you healed, and I will start again."
Someone, get healing, preferable a spell so its renewable." He began clearly angry. This was to be their grand entrance to something big, and this worthless peice of s+*! ruined that. He moved to the dead body (ie the prisoner) and turned to face Vala. "Which one is his sword arm?" He asked coldly.

&^%$#@%# her scouts are terrible! He began not bothering with trying to climb out of the death trap and just leaping out the window.
"If this what i think it is....
He began following Hakk down the stairs.
Strangely that proclamation actually made him frown, if that house had just gotten enough courage to attack another house, who knew what means it possessed. Certainly means enough that it could easily retaliate against their little venture...then again he shrugged and looked torwards Hakk. "Did you hear that Hakk'Viddaro, This belongs to House Vandree. I believe they owe us blood." He began loading his crossbow and cracking his neck. He didnt really want to burn the place down but perhaps it was for the best really. He placed his crossbow up to his shoulder and nodded torwards the party. "Im ready to roll when you are someone mentioned tossing fire into the windows."
Should we send your forces in through the back to make a ruckus and then leap in via that window? The alarm ward wont mean much if they know an attack is happening, but we might be able to flank them if they send most of their forces torwards the back. Of course we could do it the other way as well. He added glancing to the others. If all of wards were just alarm wards (aside from the front door) Then he didnt care if they tripped them during the assualt... after all once things began they were going to know bad things were afoot. He glanced to the others waiting to hear their thoughts on it, he had taken the lead before, but this... well its not like they were expected again.
He bit back his frown. first choice was a bit much, especially considering what magical gear they had might not be suited for a conjurer... but... he also realized he had put the mage in that position to be demanding in the first place. Those terms are acceptible. He began glancing torwards the lovely Vala. She most defitenitely thought him a fool by this point. To gather the others and strike then. He finished nodding to the others and turning to lead the way.
Mistress Vantrag never returned. We were hidden away in a hiding spot the former house had when a gang of ruffians came shaking the owner for money. Nathaniel.. that one big orc if you recall, and myself drove off the collectors. . . The orc owner there was worried they would be back with more warriors, so we decided to hit them first. We couldnt have them discovering us and the matron. He paused taking a sip of water from the waterskin on his hip. While we were there It would appear that another gang, was contacted by the orc. I am making assumption here, they had a mage who like to fling fire and the whole place went up. They were a rival of Miss Vala here's gang which we have... eliminated and now we work to rid our new found orginization of that threat. With no house to go to most of us have to make do with what we can find, and despite the loss of a lot of her muscle Miss Vala here has a good setup. We are looking for a mage, a good mage, you were the first person i thought of. The hurry i spoke of is simple, Miss Vala believes there are a few other gangs who might move in on her as word spreads of what happened there, Like we did to her i would like to strike first before they are ready. I dont know your plans, but making some coin couldnt hurt it right? He said doing his best to try to sound... business like and calm.
He stopped moving and sighed. "Since we are here I suppose we could try again, no sense looking if we dont need to. There is that pesky essence of time" He said aloud and turned around knocking on the door once more. "We could use your aide. Obviously that is why we came here, if you would like work, then open up if you would prefer to go back to well whatever it is you are doing thats fine too. We are on a time crunch as I said before so time is...short." He waited outside the door.. just to the side of it really just in case the door was opened this time with an unpleasent surprise.
I would not but to be honest, Mourn is here to bring you along to keep you in the game. We all stuck together, you went your own way. I didnt think I was being too demanding, in hindsight i probably should have worded it differently. My apologies. take 2, not very mourn military mind set like but worth a shot i suppose.
Look, I'll be honest, We dont have anything to offer Vicalin so really its on him to decide what to do. I dont think any of us are the begging type. Maybe when we loot the house and have the golem he will come to us and we can shut the door in his face.
"so vala whom do you know that would be a mage for hire? we will find a better mage elsewhere." he added loudly enough. He moved down the hallway signaling with sign language to the others. leave him, he wasnt much of a mage anyhow.
"Oh good, you are already packed and ready to go. We are in a bit of a time crunch so makes it easier." He began making a motion for the mage to follow them. "Vala here had a gang... now she has a new one, there is a troublesome rival gang that may be linked with the death of a matron mother and a house that recently had troubles. We are going to make our little gang and hers merge and solve the problem with the other gang... and probably merge there as well. " He paused his lips curling into the barest of smiles. "If we found you so quickly I would imagine they wont be too troubled either, after all, word get around in this city." He added in entirely too nonchelaunt a tone.
He paused outside the door and frowned reviewing what he knew of the mage. He was a skilled conjurer.... not prone to hasty or rash decisions... and pragmatic. With a glance to his companions he raised his fist and knocked on the door loudly. "Business Delivery" He said loud enough so those within would hear him.
I got this >.> kinda. maybe. *lawls*
We can add looting our old house to the list of things to do *starts a list*
I may not have been the clearest. We are not attacking the house that attacked us. In fact we are completely ignoring that a bit, its uh.. why i eliminated links to us. When we came here to this bar for the orc, it was to stop a gang of criminal like scum from forcing him to pay protection money. From taking out Vala's crew we decided that you know what, being merceniary criminal mob like scum might not be a bad gig, so we are moving to attack another close simular rival... before they attack us once word gets out that she got hit. Hopefully sucking them into our little group in the process and doubling our territory and size. I think that is what we are doing I can imagine how its all jumbled and confusing, i dont think our little survival team has really sat down and talked everything out, we should probably do that soon.
well luckyish... things still could go south from this point... are drow supposed to have feelings like regret? someone should murderlize him for being undrowlike right now :P
As Hakk went downstairs to do what it was he felt like he needed to do his shoulders slumped just a little. It was the reaction he expected ... he just didnt expect it to bother him as much as it did. He wondered what it must feel like to be able to feel that much for another. . . and he had taken that from him. He moved behind the bar of the place and found a bottle opening it up and drinking heavily from it. "So they probably have mage support, which means we need mage support... where did whats his face say he was going to?" He asked tightly. more staring at the bottle than to the others.
And there... heres to this working out, and look, they have mages a hook to reel our wayward mage back in
gm:
He had been hoping she would get her hands wet with him, but he nodded at her pointing to the laterns,
" Guess the only thing to do is loot this place of the easy valubles to carry and let it burn.
He began giving the place a quick one over for anything worth anything, before tossing one latern in the back hardand moving for the door tossing the other into the flamable pile... after a moment he pulled out one of his smoke sticks tossed it in there as well and then. Ran back inside, not so much into the flame but into the haze and smoke before darting back out. He clearly wanted to make it look as real as possible. Pick the enemy well, Im sure Hakk'Viddaro will be righteously upset. He said coughing out some of the smoke.
He paused a moment to compose himself before entering their new hideout.. for now at least. He still didnt trust the pretty one, but he had hopes she might come around, after all she did stand to lose everything yet gain more by their partnership perhaps. We have to move quickly, He began when he found the others. "That worthless wretch of an orc sold us out to the ... the... What did you say their name was Vala dear? Im so Livid and furious right now I cant think straight. He took a deep breath and glanced to Hakk and flinched a little. There a sharp fight, but one was a mage who flung fire. The orc tried to stop him but went down to my crossbow, the place almost exploded. I tried to get back to ... Im sorry Hakk, Nothing could be done to save them... but we can get vengence." He straightened hoping the story was crafted well enough, or that they cared little enough to prod to deep into it.
Shop: For that beautiful I do apologize, bad luck to be rolling the safehouse of a noble drow for shakedown money eh? I guess this is our problem, not yours, go find something to burn this shack down and I will uh... deal with the problems. Cant have them about for their foes to track us down.
He said frowning at the job that needed down. Drawing out a dagger he frowned and sighed moving first to Hakk's mother Biting his lip for a moment he paused and looked down to her. "Dont worry, I will keep an eye out for Hakk, he is a bit boisterous at times." He told the unconcious drow noble and with that he drew his blade across her throat. Moving quickly to the Matron mother he swallowed and did the same. Carefully wiping the dagger completely clean of their blood he resheathed it to rejoin their new companion to see if she found a way to light the place on fire. "We found the orc with a couple members of one of your rival gangs, he had sold us out to them, we caught them by surprise and took them out but one was a mage and the place caught on fire.... Understand?
the shop: I dont know whom do you think they are. He began searching the orcs body. When he was done he half grinned to the strange woman and smirked. Ever have a little fun while a matron mother and her eldest daughter 'watched'? Want too? He began frowning as he looked at the two unconcious problems. He had come her to kill them... but now he hesistated which was unusual for him.
gm:
He sighed as he went into the back room with the orc and his new 'friend' in tow. He had hoped and slightly assumed that she would have taken the hint to knife the orc in the back while he was preoccupied with him, but no such luck.
He motioned torwards the younger of the drow females. A hand getting that one up if you will shopkeep. He said taking ample oppertunity to wait til the orc was busy trying to get the drow female before he unslung his crossbow quickly signed to Vala kill him now and fired twice into his back.
I am a male drow commoner... No small loss for me :P
lunk was meant to be link, thrm is them
Oh by the way, im about to murder the matron, her daughter, the orc, and burn the building down, then blame it on one of the other gangs to get hakk into a killing fury... hope you all dont mind, trying to uh cut off any lunk on case the house that hit our former house tries tracking thrm down
gm cause its sneaky!:
On the way there he quietly discussed why e was taking her along with him. She was an outsider but. . . somewhat trustworthy. They had three loose ends that needed tidied up and the others were.... untrustworthy enough to do so. The matron mother and her daughter had to die, there was no way around that, holding onto them would paint a target on their back from the attackers of their house, and the orc was a liability because he knew of their existance as well. They would all have to be eliminated and she was going to help him do it.
Indeed now about that payment we discussed? We may be moving the packages as well... it would seem there may be well further excitement and it wouldnt do for them to be harmed. He began instantly walking inside the 'shop' hoping the orc would follow and let his knew valuble ally Vala behind him.
Im reading this as being more chaotic than evil, so no need to burn babies, erp the dead bodies and such. just working on what the theme is So uh... I'm afraid the matron and her daughter are going to be uh... found dead. Sorry Hakk *whistles innocently* Its a shame one of those darned places we are about to raid had eyes on the shop and back trailed us to the safe house and murdered everything in it in a premptive strike.
Alright my friends, Let me try out one of those wands then I will take our new friend here back to go get our uh... cargo. He began with a wink to her as he rose from the seat snugging the freshly loaded cartridge into the crossbow. He was about to take a leap of faith.. and hopefully not a disasterous one with her.
On a scale of 1 to 10 everyone (gm included) how evil/vile is this campaign? Like im honestly one of the most goody two shoes paladin like people in th rl and with most of my charectors but i dont want to offend anyone either
Im working an angle i promise. We have this pretty lass who might be expenda...useful in such endeavors
You know I am very aware you havent actually told us your name. I will keep that in mind. While I am certain we would love to build a rather large and lucrative team, team's require a small amount of trust. The more helpful you are the more your cut might come up to. I am bribeable if you have... other skills to display. He said with a smirk. He was indeed testing her, while she was certainly pretty enough to enjoy in pure physical entertainment he would much rather her be of use. He wondered what to do about the matron mother and the elder daughter. Leaving them as a loose end could go terribly wrong, but just murdering them could incite Hakk to violence. Do you... own this building? He asked the pretty female as he reloaded the cartriges to his crossbow.
Beautiful it is, I can live with that name, so you think four other gangs may attack once the night catches up to us? Interesting. Hakk's going to love this. What do you know of them? Who leads them? what sort of numbers? Do they have identifying features like colors worn or special jackets or anything? He continued grilling her and well truthfully eyeing her as well. His mind was spinning on more than just ways to get her sans her clothing of course. Chaos was going to be so thick once night hit, and if they were smart they could profit from it.
You live, is of course the first and most important payment, Then you get to aide us in taking things bigger and better. My associates and I work for some very important people, but have recently been given the opportunity to grow our operation, and in any growing operation there is always room for others to join and grow in. Im not in a position to .... discuss renumeration just yet, not until I know the scope of what your organization was doing and what coin you were pulling in, but unless you were the true boss... which might be possible It would be very worth your time. Tell me beautiful... whats your name. . . and where does that passage lead, cause my friends here dont have the patience for on the job interviews as I do.
Sit down. He began exasperated. If I wanted you dead, it would have happened already, tell me about your operation, where its boundries are how you picked your targets, how much coin you pulled in. He began pulling himself up a chair at the table and stting down as if he didnt have a care in the world.
This was sort of the plan right? Mercenaries sinve our noble daughter seems to have snapped up somewhere?
well then i offer to buy them a drink, we sit down and have a little chat tonsee how we might... work better together. Me and my friends here find ourselves in... an interesting situation. He began moving closer and he started to try and right up a large table that had been half flipped up when the chaos started. He pulled up a seat and patted it insinuating she should sit down.
Ah a civil tongue finally... He began surveying the carnage. We are here to protect a certain orcs assets, we dont take kindly to threats given to one of our businessmen. Thats not important beautiful.... who are you and why should I not have my friend Hakk here. He began patting the large Draegloths shoulder. DO terrible terrible things to your dead body. I dont think that brute, tough as he was was the brains behind this orginization... and its the brains behind it im seeking. He offered her his best smile.
Listen Gorgeous if you just stand down and surrender now we wont do untorward things with your Corpse! He called out to her while slapping the first magazine out of his crossbow and replacing it.
