I'm still here. And sometimes it's fun to see an NPC like a woodcarver get a lot more attention than our GM may have intended ;)
Under the weather due to a nasty, persistent virus. Will try to post tomorrow. Sorry for the hold up.
I miss Dhaavan... I know he's got life going on right now, so just saying... Hope things get better for him soon...
Rain, I guess you're still feeling bad... I'm so sorry... hope you get better soon.
Thanks, Jiro. The doctor thinks I may have whooping cough and has taken a swab. I'm still very sick, so no posting from me until Monday. Sorry.
no problem - just get better.
Ugh. I've never had that *knock on wood* but I've friends who did. Sympathy
I'm still very unwell (can't seem to shake off this virus no matter what I do). I will try to catch up soon (I don't know what's going on and have to read back over the posts of last week that I have missed) and then have Rain act accordingly.
I am so sorry you're still sick, hon. I do hope you get better soon.
Thanks, Jiro. It's playing havoc with my life at the moment and ruined my birthday. I just want to be back to my usual self soon.
I can imagine it must be miserable to be ill and for so long too. I'm sorry it ruined your birthday! No one should be sick on special days like that!
Ugh. Yeah, I'm with Jiro. Terrible time made worse by terrible timing. Sympathy :(
Thanks, Adular. :)
FYI, I won't be posting tomorrow as I am going to a funeral. Will pick back up saturday.
My condolences. May they rest in peace.
Sorry for your loss, Imm... as Rain said, RIP
Thanks all. It's my step-dad's father. We weren't close at all but was there to support my step-dad who I am pretty close with.
@Variel: On the board, but still unwell. But thank you.
I know Dhaavan is having issues right now, but what happened to Flynn?
Flynn's player is still around - just hasn't been able to post the last few days. Not sure when he'll be back posting, however.
ok thx
just heard from Dhaavan. He is swamped with work and moving across country and finishing his classes. He said that he will return after memorial day when most of this stuff is offloaded. Just keeping you all up to date.
yay!!! so sorry to hear he's swamped with life, but glad he will be back..
Flynn, we had a plan in place. Because of differing time zones I wasn't able to post Rain going to window and Jiro didn't get a chance to get to the window either (not sure if Rain was flying him up there). Why would you have Flynn and Anen just ignore the plan and do as they see fit? It would have been good to have given the rest of us a chance to respond after Variel's post or you could have put forward rp to inform the group of Flynn's intentions and/or the results of Horus' scouting mission. We're in this together - this isn't a solo mission.
agreed.
Tomorrow (Saturday for me), I will be out of town undertaking some family funerary obligations and Sunday is of course Mother's Day and I have my family up and we'll be celebrating together. So my posting will be sporadic at best over this period. Just wanted to let you guys know.
Happy Mother's Day to all mothers and carers!

While Variel and Rain at his request and Adular are gong to be present for certain to question the assassin, I am assuming everyone else will want to be present as well. Who wants to take the lead in the questioning?
Variel is fine with letting someone else do the talking. things Variel wants to know though:
Who is he?
Who else are targets?
Are they already killed?
Who is he working for?
Who does that person work for?
Where are they located?
What is his connection to Shanxia?
What do the assassins associated with Shanxia want with Variel other than his death and why?
Anything else that people want to know?

I think I'd like to be involved in the interrogation, but after reading the post on the main thread I was a little confused (I read and responded before seeing this one).
I decided to leave my post up, though, because I'm not clear why you gave that order and I figured I'd ask you in game as it seemed kind of unusual is all.
For myself, I think you got the bulk of the questions asked that I'd like to know, though I guess I'd ask if he has other targets, where are they located (I wasn't sure if you were looking for the location of just the guy's boss, but if not, I think if he does have other targets knowing their location would be good).
Where did the guy get his tools? If he used poison on the prior target then he has got his poison somewhere; finding out where the poison came from could be helpful (as well as the rest of his gear).
I think I'd also want to know what the guy is earning for his work.
This seems odd, but if the guy is getting 500 GP for it, we might be able to persuade him to spill the information rather easily. If the guy is getting paid something like 10,000 GP I'm kind of curious what that smuggler did to be worth so much.
Finally, does the assassin have his own ship somewhere? He could probably buy passage on a different ship, but I'm thinking that if I was an assassin who wanted to make a quick getaway I might have a small private schooner moored somewhere that could move me between targets without having to wait until someone will let me sail with them.
If he does, we may be able to find it and (possibly) sell it. Just curious...

Why did he kill the Tengu, Corlan? What is his connection/association to him (the assassin) or his employer? (We know that Corlan was a smuggler but it would be good to know the reason for his death ... and if Corlan was connected to Shanxia or some other malevolent master...)
Dhaavan and Amen have the best diplomacy for "friendly" interrogations. Not sure how we want to handle this assassin - nicely or with force/threat? Variel's dip is at +10, Rain's is at +7 and her intimidate is at +5. Flynn's diplo and intimidate are both at +7. I have no issue with who wants to take the reins in this or who wants to bot Dhaavan.
Who will be botting Dhaavan for the first half of the questioning?

I will bot Dhaavan during the questioning, no worries :)
Windows 10 completely wrecked my comp (and access to files) and I went back and restored my Windows 7 and am much happier. Good luck, Variel.

I hear that, Rain.
I heard so much crap about Windows 10 (not to mention what it did to something as cool as Word used to be - the new version of Word makes me want to vomit with rage) I never even bothered to install it.
Anyhow, talk to you all later.
It seems like we got some solid information, which was pretty great :)
Has anyone heard from Adular or Jiro? Their last game posts were May 17 and 19 respectively. Are they still with us?
Sorry - nothing for Seijiro to do other than watch and listen right now... I'll chime in soon, I suspect.
Jiro has no opinion on whether to cut the assassin loose or retain his service? The man's declined us of course, but Dhaavan has announced we should set sail. ;)
yes I know, but the offer was made and declined before Seijiro could say much about it, so didn't say anything.

Apologies.
Family problems have popped up and things are hectic. I got to juggling a lot of balls and this one dropped .
I'll try to catch up.
Hope your family issues start getting better, Adular.
Port peril is a destination along with finding the naga which one do we want to go with?
Also what do we want to do with returning his items. I don't remember seeing that we agreed to let him go with his stuff.
Rain voted for Port Peril. Also, she let the assassin go with his equipment/gear. ;)
Will be at Gamex this weekend (Fri-Mon)... will check in as and when I can, but no guarantees - depends on hotel wifi and charging possibilities... Bot me as necessary to keep the pace of the game up, don't want to slow things down.
Have a fun long weekend at Gamex, Jiro!
I knew it was Dhaavan because when I botted Jiro I said it was. It was very late and I typed 'Flynn' in my posting as Rain. Apologies.

No worries, it's all good :)
Hey everyone!
So some news for you. I have two new players that will be joining the game shortly. Both are very experienced and really good players and people overall that I am in other games with. I wanted to introduce them unofficially on here and I will be introducing them in game over the next few days as things progress. Please make them feel welcome to the crew!
