I just posting here to say I still around. :)
I will be around, not going anywhere fast.
Thanx for the heads up nightflier. And good luck with work.
Zakmakiv speaks up towards the captain, "May you be so kind as to direct us to the university so we can get answers to this chaos taking place."
When ready to come back, just give us a shout. I sure we be happy for your return.
Tarragon you just need to specify the region for your knowledge (local).
I just want to clear up something with Knowledge (local) skill. For Eberron setting, local skill is to specific region, and skill can be taken multiple times to add another region. This is also similar to the Forgotten Realm setting. How are you handling the Knowledge (local) skill, regarding regions the character may travel through?
After hearing "low-lives like you", she simply smiles thinking to herself, Well being an assassin, in most eyes we are naturally considered low-life. Looking up at the captain, "That is rather interesting. A professor hired the warforge to capture a bunch of strangers. Also have one of the university mages killed to bring us together for capturing.", pausing briefly as she rubs her chin thinking, "I really don't like the sound of this situation we are unknowingly caught in. Yet we still do not know which professor is behind this attack and wanting to capture us. Nor why they want us. Going to great lengths to do so, even killing anyone getting in their way or silencing them as fast as possible." She shrugs her shoulders, "I guess we have to go to university to find out, though those behind this will surely try to kill or capture us when we go there."
Looks up at the captain trying to speak as diplomatic as possbible, "Captain, we came to question the captured warforge that attacked yesterday, to find out why it attacked a group of strangers that was willing to help the goblin, who was also slain by the warforge, when he showed us the discovered dead body in the alleyway. I believe we all looking for the same answers, for the attack on your premisses, and to why we were attack. Most importantly, who is behind the attacks."
Condolence for the loss of a family member Glaive. Good luck to you too in finding a job quickly.
No worries Tarragon. Good luck in obtaining another job. Yep, life has unusual way of throwing curve balls at us. Gone through a few of those myself, with a few luck balls too.
Zakmakiv lets out a curse in draconic, as she looks at the charred remains of the building. Realizing something, perhaps there is a chance, "Did the warforge die in the blast?", asking the guard. To others, "If there is nothing we can do to help here, or being getting in their way, then we can go to the university to gather more information."
Zakmakiv stands between the warforge, listening to the others while looking carefully at the explosion site before them.
Just want to inform you my internet at home has goes crazily unstable. I struggle just to open a web page completely.
"Wow! That was a big explosion.", as Zakmakiv looks about. Seeing something glittering nearby, she looks closely at it, avoiding to touch it, then points her hand at it, "Look here. Seems to be a fragment of something that came from the explosion." Looking back at the origin of the explosion, "Wonder if the warforge self-detonated."
She looks up to read the notes, Zakmakiv forms a slight smile as she reads the airship heading to Xen'drik, This should put a great distance between Q'Barra and me. Speaking softly, "What about taking an adventure trip to Xen'drik...", pausing briefly, "of course once we find out why the warforge attacked us and who was the dead old man we came across.". Deliberately not mentioning the note they discussed last evening.
I fine, either taking a break or continuing over this period.
Well I really enjoy nightflier's games, so willing to stick around for months waiting.
I got no response from him. Seems he still having issues to clear his name at ISP. At least this this ISP told him why, unlike other times he had no idea why he could not access various sites. For future, need to get a private virtual server for documents transfers between devices. They cheap at a few USD per month. I make use of one in the USA for a number of years already.
Well Dropbox has been shown of lately not to be secure for private data. Many business here has already banned it for that reason alone. Making use of a private server at a hosting company is much more secure, and you can configure the server for exactly what you need to do. There are many hosting companies around the planet that provide virtual private servers for you data and applications. They are also rather cheap for the small ones that is useful for data transfers.
I have received message from nightflier. He currently has no internet to be able to post.
I be away for 3 days. I believe I should have 3G connection where I going, but might not be able to post if connection is bad due to storms in the area.
"I say lets visit the prisoner, hopefully it is still functional by the time we get there. I sure who ever sent them to attack us will try to silence it. Afterwards we go to the university to find out more, perhaps they know more of one of their own being killed today.", speaking as Zakmakiv climbs into her haystack cave she had created for herself, "Those of us needing sleep, I advice getting some. Thanks to the those not needing sleep to stand guard over us.", resting her hands on two daggers as she prepares to sleep slightly.
Ready for action.
Have safe journey.
"Yes, hopefully we can get some answers tomorrow from the warforge that attacked us.", as Zakmakiv packs away the watch and ring. Looking up at the warforge, "Thank you for standing watch over us who needs some sleep."
"If you don't mind, I rather not show the ring or watch until we can figure out more about them. I will keep these two items in the mean time. Rather use the paper for identifying the mark on it instead."
Zakmakiv continues to fiddle with watch and ring, muttering softly in draconic trying to figure out how to open the watch. Eventually she looks up at the warforge before her, and lifts the ring up to them to see it better, "Any one of you recognize the mark on the ring? Any one determine if the ring and watch are magical."
Remembering the golden ring, she takes it out and looks at it too, holding watch in one hand and ring in the other. After a while of studying them individually she bring the two items together to see if ring fits somewhere on the watch to open it.
Seeing they were given the back part of the barn to stay for the night, Zakmakiv, quickly scrambles up the hay bail stacks to the venting windows to see what is observable for security reasons. Once satisfied, she quickly hops down again she pulls s few bails to form a small cave for herself to sleep in. Once satisfied with her little hole, with a view of the barn entrance, she takes a seat in front of her hole. She waves for everyone to come closer to her, as she pulls out the piece of paper she took from the human body. Clearly concern can be seen as she speaks, "I found this on the human body. It contains our names. YET. I just arrived in this city today looking for a job to do to earn some money to travel further. I only met you in the tavern, and Tomp on his own offered stranger to have a higher seat to eat more comfortable. What is very strange and worrying, is that is has our names before we knew all of each other names." Zakmakiv then places the paper on the hay covered floor in front of her, suddenly in her hands she was holding the golden pocket watch to examine it closely studying, and trying to open it.
Zakmakiv nods in agreement, "I also believe it is best we find another location. That way we can see if others are following us."
It is all fine by me. Life happens, especially to earn some money.
"Well Tomp and I introduced each other already. I go by the name of Zak.", preferring not to give out her entire name. Looking to see where the guards are, she whispers to the warforge, "Perhaps it is best we find some place more private and more secure than here to discuss what happened and figure out what is going on."
Wish you well.
Zakmakiv makes her way to stand next to Tomp, the warforge that was friendly to her from the moment they met, nodding as the guard speaks. Though still keeps looking around to see if any still wanting to attack them, and particularly looking for any Black Mambas.
Not wanting to be a target of the city watch, she quickly stows the arrow and slings her bow onto her back once more. She remains still, and silence while looking out for any threat to her, as she ponders the note with her name on it, How did the Black Mambas find me so quick... Also why are the name of those I just met also on the note too.
Zakmakiv nods to the minotaur, and quickly heads to the human body quickly removing seemingly important items and stowing them quickly away, before resuming taking up position behind the warforge altering herself appearance to blend in with surroundings, keeping an eye out for followers.
Without looking back she speaks softly to the warforge, "There is a crowd starting to form to see what the commotion is about. Prepare for trouble by the authorities."
After the surprise attack, Zakmakiv speaks softly, "I keep watch while you question this live one...", moving to the edge of the ally entrance against the wall peering both directions to see if she can spot anyone else that may be interested in the goblin and dead human. All the while keeping an arrow notched.
As the warforge draw their weapons she fires her readied bow sending the arrow directly to the leader of the attacker.
I just letting you know I back home now from trip, yet have not slept for 2 nights, so very zombie. I will post tomorrow morning, when I feel like I have a brain again.
