I think that is an adequate plan. I will talk to Lord Keldarrin to arrange the customs inspection. Get ready for a long day, for that--we will need to conduct a full inspection--covering most traffic that day if we want to avoid being excessively obvious.

I don't recollect you having a predilection for sneaking around, Gelwyn. Will you be able to do that without drawing attention? It might be best if Thain and I handle that part of the plan.


"Hmm, yes...a fair point about needing to inspect everyone. You've obviously handled things like this before." <thoughtful expression>

"But if we're stopping everybody, won't word get back up the road? I don't think a roadblock is quite the thing, and I'm not sure we lose anything by being obvious. Worst case is Devon is tipped off that there was some trouble, but as long as the wagon gets through..."

"Now, on the other matter...no, I'm under no delusions that sneaking into a market building is much like sneaking out of the house when the butler isn't looking. But I intend to be part of the operation, so either things will be nice and clear and you can help me slip in, or you'll be needing someone on the outside distracting attention and covering your escape. One way or the other, though, I'm in on this one."

helping you slip in will be difficult if you don't have the right skills for the job but it can be done *gives the up down go over*

So who is doing what when?


Plan: 1) investigate market, 2) inspect wagon, 3) confront Devon.

So we're off to the fish market to look around after hours. I don't want to be cut out in the early atages, but Thain's concerns are of course valid, so I'll probably serve as a lookout while he and uncle do the actual burglarizing...

That means I'll leave the tactical details to the two of them, and follow directions for now.

I meet up with Thain to scout out the market while Gelwyn keeps watch. My plan is to dress up in dark clothing to help me blend into the shadows. If there is a back door which has a pickable lock, I will attempt that first. If not, I will plan to climb up the side of the building to a window and enter that way, if there is a window unlatched or easily unlatchable. Thain will accompany me.

Stealth: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
Disable Device: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Climb: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

It is only one floor but there are plenty of windows. There are two guards out front but they don't look inclined to move. You are easily able to locate a window in shadow and well out of their sight. Okay Thain roll stealth. You get a +5 sircumstamnce bonus because of the poor lighting.

stealth: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

The guards don't move as you sneak in through the window. You two find yourself in a large room that seems to take most of the building. There are four desks and lots barrels and crates. Everything smells of fish.

Both of you roll spot.
