I'm sorry that things bogged down like they did. In all honestly I'm at an impasse as oto how to do anything since my interpreter vanished like he did. I have had a lot going on IRL that have bogged me down as well so my appologies for that as well. I was looking forward to seeing how it would all go but I understand the need to close the game down and I'm very sorry that I was a par tof causing that.
Sarinah felt relief at the death of the last snakes and looked at her friends to make sure they were alright. It was then she noticed that the newcomers who helped them out had spoken and she looked at them uncomprehendingly. Holding up one finger she turned to Brim and shook her hand out to banish the dark energy still wreathing it and then sacked Brim in the back of the head then gestured rapidly to him sharply. What did they say Brimm?
With the two new arrivals seeming to bring the battle to a quick close Sarinah stayed back for now and prepared to go in an heal anyone who got injured by the remaining snake.
Sarinah saw the snake bite her brother with a soundless gasp and felt anger sear through her. She gestured once more and move up quickly to touch the snake with black energy once again.
Not wanting to waste a spell on something that might be ready to drop Sarinah pulled her dagger free and took a swing at the snake.
Seeing the fighting well and truly begun Sarinah cast a spell and then advanced, reaching out to touch the snake that Brim was fighting with glowing black energy.
With little more she can do at this range Sarinah waited, if the snakes were aggressive and attacked she'd be ready to attack them or heal her friends, if they didn't then she was willing to let them pass by.
Seeing the snakes ahead of them Sarinah tried to identify what they where. She thought she might have seen something like them before but it wasn't certain by any means.
Sarinah found the trip to Camlon, thus far, to be very boring, and she was quite glad of this fact. When they set up camp for the night she was relieved not to have the first watch and went into a deep sleep through the first two watches. When Brim woke her for the last watch Sarinah rose without complaint and took up her place keeping an eye out for trouble. Unlike her brother or Colt Sarinah didn't have as much trouble seeing in the darkness and saw any number of animals but no signs of trouble.
Sarinah listened to what Brim translated for her and was startled at the thought that she was a dragon. She supposed it made a certain amount of sense but still. She signed back to him and said, You are my brother, it means you must be a dragon too. She considered a moment and then signed some more, In fact we are all orphans from that war aren't we? It makes sense we might all be dragons somehow or another. As Brim asked if they were to protect or destroy the key Sarinah smacked the back of his head with two fingers and signed, If these keys seal away such a destructive power wouldn't hey have been destroyed after locking her away? They probably can't be destroyed.
Sarinah breathed a sigh of relief as the last flee dropped and quickly turned to Molly. She gestured and then reached out to touch the woman's face with the pale golden radiance that enveloped her hand.
Not about to waste a spell on what she felt should be a nearly dead flea Sarinah pulled her dagger and sliced at the creature.
Sarinah, seeing the flea leap at Molly, cast a quick spell and stepped up to meat it. Her hand, again glowing with darkblack energy, reached out to touch the flea and channel anti-life into it like she had the other one and gestured for Molly to get behind her.
Sarinah was pleased that she dropped one so quickly but the others were quickly entering the fray. She quickly signed to Brim, they are resistant to slashing attacks and can give disease if they bite you. She pulled her sling free then and quickly sent a shot flying at the green flee hoping that she could take another one out quickly.
Sarinah nodded in understanding at the explanation and looked in curiosity at the explanation. The curiosity turned to one of knowing when she caught a glimpse of what wasn't under the cloaks. Sarinah smiled brightly at Molly and reached out to pat her on the shoulder in sympathy at her being stood up like she was.
How she spotted the things attacking Sarinah would never know but spot them she did. The flees leapt up and came for them but she was just as on the ball as they were. not about to let the closest one get away with this attack she quickly cast a spell and reached out to touch it with a hand now coated in foul black energy.
Sorry for the delay in posting, everytime I tried to gget one in the blasted site was down.
As her brother helped get Molly out of the hole Sarinah stood by with her kit ready. She wasn't sure what shape the woman would be in and wanted to be prepared just in case. That she had survived the fall was nothing short of a miracle and she dreaded the kinds of injuries that she expected to see. That Molly was unharmed when she reached the top was a surprise and Sarinah couldn't believe it. Sarinah turned her gaze to her brother and signed, What happened? How did she survive, let alone in such goodshape? She looked Molly up and down real quick and noted the cloaks and the feathers in her hair and asked, For that matter, what is she doing in those cloaks?
Looking down into the deep dark hole Sarinah was possessed with an idea. She didn't realize they'd found Molly yet and so looked for something on the ground she could use. Picking up a small stick she focused and gestured over it causing it to light up and glow like a torch. She then tossed the stick down the hole and peered down to spot Molly if she could.
With no one left to tend to it seemed Sarinah saw her brother approaching. When he told her what was happening she nodded and gathered her things together. Once she was done and had her pack ready she rose and signed, Show me the way. She followed behind Brim as he led her towards where the others were waiting for them.
Sarinah signed back to her brother, "Just bring me anyone who needs help or get me if they can't be moved." Then headed to where the Elders were. Sarinah left the poor little girl in the care of the Elders and grabbed what the Elder had taken from their room last night for them before heading back out into the ruins. She made her way into teh center of town and saw the total devastation of the place and knew that this was likely the last time they'd ever be here. She had many memories of the place and did her best to supress them so that she could focus on the task at hand. She set her things out on the ground and prepared the are for the injured that may come and then meditated while she awaited anyone needing treatment.,
Sarinah didn't know what was happening, she couldn't really see Sarah through all the smoke, so when she felt her body seize up and stiffen she panicked and let out a rare cry of sound, a scream of fear, before it was cut off as she turned to stone. When the spell on her ended the first sound Sarinah uttered was her scream of terror for a brief moment. She realized that suddenly the feeling faded and she managed to withdraw her terror and felt the note in her hand. She unrolled the paper as she tried to slow her breathing and read intently while others read over her shoulder and when she finished a tear formed in her eye. She didn't know how she knew it but Sarah was gone and she wasn't coming back. At least their mentor had given them a place to start. The fact that she was a light dragon wasn't much of a surprise, she knew she and her brother were special, just like the est of the orphans, and it seemed she now knew why. Sarinah was just about to ask if anyone else had the dream when she saw the other's all begin to rush outside. She couldn't just let them leave without her so she quickly followed. When she saw little Wendy crying she quickly rushed over to the child and knelt before her and pulling the sobbing girl into her arms. She lifted the girl and signed to her brother, "I'll take her to the Elder's and come back out to help with the survivors. I'll set up over there so bring the injured to me if you can." With that she carried the sobbing girl into the remains Elder's house.
Sarinah was surprised they ahdn't fled the building. It was a horrifying thought to still be inside as it burned but she knew Sara, trusted Sara, and did as she was bid. She stayed close to Brim and approached as Sara bade.
I will be out of town at Gencon this Wednesday through Sunday so my posting will be very sparse/non-existent until possibly next Monday. Please bot me as needed.
Sarinah was woken with a start from a dream that had gone horiffic and as Elder Eden shook her awake she was relieved. It took her a moment to realize what exactly was going on but when she finally saw what the Elder said she was bolt upright and out of bed. That the dream seemed to be trying to warn her of the fire was lost on her for the time being and she took just enough time to make sure the others were up an moving and then headed for the stairs.
When you are in the alias adding your character sheet you see the optional fields at the top? you use those. I usually put most of my line int the one that says Gender then the rest in Class/Levels.
Alrighty, that works for me. I would recommend that Brim be able to sign common for free as well since he is my brother. *Edit:
Fine with me, I was more or less following what Pathfinder generally suggests up for such cases. Is sign separate from, or part of the languages.

Sarinah is a pale complected half-elven woman with long silvery hair and sharply pointed ears. She wears clothing of pale white only carries a mace and sling for weapons. She carries herself with an odd grace and her eyes are almost always roving around as they look for trouble. She is also seen, at times, waving her hands and fingers at people, particularly her brother, and rarely says a word. Background:
Sarinah was born the younger sister of Brim and the two could not be more alike. It has never been explained to the pair but somehow Brim was born full human while Sarinah was not. Sarinah was born half-elven and likely is only Brim’s half-sister but she doesn’t care. He is her brother, that’s all that matters.
Like her brother Sarinah remembers little of her time before being taken in by the town of Drogen, though there are some things she can infer. She knows she once could hear and that she can speak, though she hears nothing now, and she knows she must have trained a little as a healer as it is her calling. More than that, though, is gone. During her time in Drogen Sarinah manifested magic, divine in origin, with no clue where it comes from. It seems tied to her deafness somehow as she doesn’t need words to cast her spells, she simply gestures and they happen. She has also learned to be very cautious of her surroundings. More than once her big brother had to save her from one thing or another and so she tries not to be a burden on him. She also has come to excel in the healing arts and is constantly having to patch her brother up after one fight or another, she usually gives him a hard time about it but it’s because she cares and they both know it. I took the deaf curse and I would assume that, rather than speak common/elven I can read lips for those languages. I also put a rank in linguistics to take sign-language. I wasn't sure if that should be separate from my languages or if I know how to sign the languages I have. Just let me know and I can adjust skill ranks as needed.
I think so, yes.
Sarinah was frustrated that she couldn't figure out what these blue dwarfs ere and it almost made her miss the obvious when Marinah suddenly looked ill. It was only their link as twins that allowed her to realize what was happening and she turned to catch her sister before she passed out with a quiet moan. Sarinah cradled her sister's body in her arms and looked at the others as she said urgently, "Come on, we need to get Marinah to the temple, or at least I do." She went to climb in the carriage, intent on commandeering it if they weren't quick enough.
I think we may have lost my sister again.
Vigilante Talent: Favored Maneuver (Dirty Trick)
Spells:
Sarinah watched carefully, placing herself between her sister and the disgusting Fenster. She was certain that all of his hacking and coughing would result in some flegm hitting the ground and turning into putty like monsters. She was determined to be ready...just in case. The fact that he backed down in the end actually surprised her a bit and she nodded in acceptance. His comment about blue dwarves caused her some consternation as she though about what he might mean.
Sarinah turned slightly and put an arm around Marinah, pulling her sister close with one hand that stroked the small of her back. "I know you do Sister, it's why I enjoy wearing black so much, I know it turns you on." She kept her guisarm held in her free hand, the butt ground and the blade straight up in a rest position.
Sarinah rolled her eyes and said, "What everyone likes of course." She took out a coin and dropped it in the box. that done she stepped back from the entrance and said, "Now we wait." While they waited the lovely harlot made sure her equipment was ready, just in case this turned ugly.
Sarinah was not happy, she'd been intending to play on the sympathies of the guardsmen and with the B@~@%es presence that was all ruined now. She privately acknowledged her respect for the guard woman, it took the balls of a titan to be willing to anger the Calistrian faith and the woman had done so without batting an eye, real courage that...or stupidity. She heard Trendon's efforts to get the woman to work with him fail and finally said, "Trendon, this is Tabitha Ralthus, the woman who had the courage to anger the entire church of Calistria in the city and then continue to poke at us like someone poking at a wasp nest. She hasn't been stung yet but I imagine it's just a matter of time. She won't be intimidated and she won't negotiate," smiling slightly she said, "she's actually an honest guard, something I thought didn't exist."
Sarinah returned her sister's kiss fervently as she felt magic course through her and heal the injury she had sustained. She walked with Marinah as she began looking for a thug to question and, finding none who can obviously answer. the sight of one gurgling brought Sarinah to a stop as she said, "Sister, this one seems to still have life left in him. Check him and revive him if he does, maybe we can get something useful out of him." No sooner had Sarinah spoken than she saw the guards coming. Knowing that they needed to distract them Sarinah ran towards the guardsmen sobbing, "Oh thank goddess you've arrived, we were beset by thugs as we rode through the area."
With the last of the hooligans driven off Sarinah slid her ransuer back to where she'd had it above the carriage door and began to apply pressure to her wounded shoulder. As she heard Andrezi ask if one of their attackers was still alive and able to ask questions Sarinah purred viciously, "Oh I still hope so."
The feel of the dagger slicing her shoulder brought a strange gasp of mixed pain and pleasure as she glared at the man. "You should have gotten out of the way when asked. You could have come visit us at the temple and had a really good time. Now I'm going to have to chastise you." Stepping back deftly Sarinah struck with her ransuer at the fool.
Sarinah looked at her sister and said, "Hmm, looks like we get to play, are you ready?" With that she hopped out, grabbing her ransuer as she went, and prepared to do battle with these foolish people that interrupted their fun.
K, just screwed up what I was gonna set up a bit. Oh well, I'll survive.
So, just to remind me, where are we going at the moment? Is this the person we were going to meet our "contacts" to get us there?
As they began their carriage ride to the docks Sarinah watched in amusement as her sister began to dote on Ryn again. The submissive girl always did have a thing for strong women. She sat next to Andrezi and plied her attentions on him for a time while they traveled and found herself frowning at the possible interruption to her amusement.
Sarinah gave Zev a quick kiss and thank you for the use of Neville and she and her sister quickly climbed in and gave the man directions. By the time Neville dropped them off at the local Calistrian temple and returned he was beat red from embarrassment after what ever the twins had been doing in the back of the carriage. He let them know that a pair of contacts would be coming to meet them at the mansion sometime later and to wait there for their guides.
