Queslin sees the situation building around Smenk and face palms. He didn't mean for his comment to inspire such trouble. He gets up and approaches. "Wait! Wait! I didn't take offense. You're only making things worse. Stop insulting him. This is so unnecessary. Leave him alone. Just go away. Just stop and go away." He pleads.
Wanting to get back to the game, Queslin dares speak, "Mr Smenk, Sheriff, perhaps you would like to test your skills while you wait."
Queslin clutches his heart as if Ariello's words had wounded him. "And here I thought we'd be friends. Now I feel its my duty to see your fire put out, my hot comrade."
Queslin gives over the ticket he won to Gaspar and goes up the stairs. He nods casually at Kurlag like he belongs. After a quick look around, Queslin goes over to the Three-Dice Ante table. The halfling's antics might distract the other gamblers, but Queslin knows that if even one card is the slightest bit singed, the halfling would be given a flying lesson by Kurlag. He sits down close to Ariello and sets his stake to be dealt in. "I have a feeling that this table will be hot tonight."
@ Aria: I had never considered the Eldritch Archer Magus until now. I think I'd like it. I'd get to play the character I want to play from the start rather than waiting 7 levels. Stupid archetypes doing it better than prestige classes.
I think I've worked out the crunch for Queslin. I changed him to start as a slayer, but his backstory still works. He's still destined to be an arcane archer. Queslin is a young elf in the service of the Bronzewood Lodge, with dreams of high adventure. He runs errands and assists the lodge members in whatever fashion they tell him. He'll sometimes be sent into town to purchase supplies or to deliver messages. When in town he spends time with the small elven population that runs the Moonmeadow Mine. Through Merris Sandovar, he is on good terms with the garrison as well. He enjoys the entertainments that Diamond Lake offers and always returns to the lodge penniless. He has, thus far, managed to keep from becoming entangled with any of the towns 'bad' elements.
"One at a time. No need to invite more trouble."
Queslin stands ready with his bow.
Sure. We seem to be done in this one.
"Or isn't a priest of Boccob."
Queslin will quickly go through the ledgers to see if he notices anything interesting then he'll help Kyle inspect the room. Perception:
Inspect the room while we tend to wounds.
Shortbow: pb shot, fire into melee
The dice roller is really frustrating me. Not just in this game either.
Gotta love flat-footed. Shortbow: fire into melee, pb shot
Kill the spider. Shortbow:
I swear I'm giving up the bow.
Queslin finds a good spot to stand just inside the door. "Seems very human to me. Like something you would do."
Queslin takes another shot before hurrying up the stairs to aid Kyle Shortbow: fire into melee, pb shot
Queslin fires his readied arrow at the woman. Shortbow: pb shot
Double doors it is.
Let's go.
Queslin pockets a vial of acid.
"We weren't exactly quiet anyway. If nothing else, those dog-things gave him warning.
"We shouldn't stay still for long. Let's get moving."
"Who ordered the job against the locksmith? Why did they want that particular key?"
Knowing his own skill at healing is lacking, and since Thalin has turned him down, Queslin turns to Ralafas, "Surely you can offer them some succor. They don't, no one, deserves to be left like this."
Queslin changes out his bow for his greatsword and stays just behind Kyle and Thalin. "We have to get them out of here."
DM-Valkur, are we using the Perception rolls you made to see the DC 15 spoiler or should we roll our own?
Queslin just nods. "Let's get going. Time is against us.
"You chose an odd time to take a nap. Are you awake enough to continue or should we pull back?"
Stand watch in case someone comes by.
Queslin fires off another arrow. Shortbow:
Shortbow: pb shot, fire into melee
stupid dice roller.
Shoot the dog-thing again.
Queslin positions himself to get a shot. Shortbow: pb shot, fire into melee
Following Kyle. I know. It sounds crazy, but that's what I'm doing.
"Well anyone who thinks this is a good idea would concern me." Queslin answers Kyle. "But I suggest that we continue on anyway.'
Queslin maintains a vigil while Kyle investigates the corpse.
Queslin follows along.
Queslin chuckles, "Even for a human you're an idiot. Come on. Let's get what we came for." He readies to go through the bashed in door.
"We should expect the stables to be guarded as well, though dirty, disenfranchised human is probably right concerning any traps. Why don't you go first, Kyle?" Queslin prepares his bow. "I'll be right behind you."
"Pointy's cousin? Am I then to assume that all shiftless, dirty, and scraggly humans we encounter are related to you? He may be my kind, but that does not make him my kin.
Queslin patiently waits for Kyle's return.
"Don't try to be a hero. Just scout."
BTW, yes, lets go after the Green Daggers.
I, too, wish to continue playing. I'm sorry for not posting more, but, as has been mentioned, I am very busy with family at this particular time. I recall seeing your post asking if we were going after the Green Daggers but got caught up in something as I was composing my response and then it totally slipped my mind. Please be patient with me/us a little longer.
