AvB - Bear
After entering the alley and looking around to make sure no one is following him, the man speaks.

Re: AvB - Bear
Remaining calm, Bear tries to be reassuring. "Yes, I understand that. However, how are they trying to kill you? Poison? Magical disease? Assasins? Staged accidents? Provoking the wrath of a local gang?
I can provide help against all of that, and more. But you'll need to calm down or you'll only do half their work for them."

Re: AvB - Bear
"Two weeks ago, I was nearly run over by a speeding carriage.. if it had been another twenty feet closer... A few days later, I was at the butcher, and his knife 'bounced' off of a bone, and nearly took my head off! Then, I was bitten by a spider three days ago, and I swear I still feel the poison coursing through my veins! This morning, I got a splinter! A splinter! I just know it was placed there to cause a lethal infection!"

Re: AvB - Bear
Taking the gold, Bear says, "Now then, if you are poisoned, a neutralize poison should do the trick."
after casting the spell, Bear says, "Feel better now?"Last edited by planswalker; 2011-05-24 at 11:56 PM.

Re: AvB - Bear
"You, good sir, said that you had been bitten by a spider. They carry a venom, not a disease. If you're still feeling their effects, what you need is antivenom, not a cure for disease. If, however, you are merely a paranoid lunatic, I will take the 18 gold for the spell I expended and return the rest to you. None of the rest of your ravings are anything more than the rantings of a paranoid lunatic."
Spoilerwell, Riz, thanks for ignoring MY gather information check and giving my rat a false lead as if my rat was a complete moron. I would think his sense motive score would let him know the difference between a stupid lunatic and someone who actually needs protection.Much thanks to Ceika for the poketar!

Re: AvB - Bear
"Oh! Hmm... thank you for clearing that up! I suppose I was confused as to which spell does what. I'm not particularly good with magic, you see?"
SpoilerWell, this is a spoiler but... he may be a paranoid delusional, but there really are people trying to kill him. He just hasn't noticed any of the actual attempts on his life. He has managed to avoid real danger by fleeing from imaginary ones.
I also had kind of planned for him to ask you to basically do a Man vs Wild show for him so that he can learn to be less cowardly.Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.

Re: AvB - Bear
"Well, do you have any evidence that there actually is someone after you? A cart 20 feet away poses no threat, and you were not even hurt by the butcher's slip. Pretty pathetic for an assassination attempt. Now then, if you have a splinter, do you mind if I take a look at the wound?"

Re: AvB - Bear
Bear does a casual examination, looking to see how bad it is.

Re: AvB - Bear
It appears to be a simple splinter, freshly earned this morning.
You also spot a strange, shallow prick with just the tiniest hint that there was a poison in it, as if a poisoned needle tried to stab into his hand, but he jerked his hand back at the last moment. Could it be that someone is actually trying to kill him?Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.

Re: AvB - Bear
Bear casts a cure minor wounds spell on the man to ease the pain of the splinter.
"Well sir, I have good news and better news. The good news is that you're not paranoid. The better news is that I've healed your splinter before you could get infected. Also on the good new side of things, the neutralize poison I cast on you wasn't a waste. The bad news is that there is a real chance that someone is actually trying to kill you, but not in the ways you are thinking they are."Much thanks to Ceika for the poketar!

Re: AvB - Bear
"No. There is no such thing as mind-control serum. At least, not like that. No, but you had a very tiny pinprick on your finger that was the result of a poisoned needle."

Re: AvB - Bear
"Um, anyone who wants to discreetly and effectively deliver a poison to a target. The world of assassination is not one of fashion. It's one of effectiveness. And poison needles are a thousand times more effective than splinter infections, runaway carts, and butchers slipping on their bones."

Re: AvB - Bear
Spoilerhttp://www.giantitp.com/forums/showp...&postcount=282 You still have yet to respond to post 282. I'm waiting on you, not the other way around.
"Indeed. Be aware, I usually charge 100 gold per day, which includes a budget for up to 1000 gold worth of spells, should you have been required to hire for each spell I cast. you have hired my services with your first hundred gold for the next day. I assume you can continue paying tomorrow, or despite how much I enjoy your company and wish to help you, I will have to seek someone who can afford help."

Re: AvB - Bear
"Of course! That's cheap compared to my life!"
He leads you back to his home. It's a nice, three story building in Old Town with a thick stone wall around it; however, all the windows seem to have been boarded up from the inside.
As you approach the front gate, he stops you and whispers harshly.
"No! They expect us to use the front gate. We have to go in through the back."Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.

"No, no. Simply unthinkable. We use the back gate. It's safe."
He leads you around the back of the house and quickly enters through the servants' gate.

Re: AvB - Bear
Bear follows him all the way inside his house. Once inside, he says, "By the way, how many days in a row have you been walking the exact same path into your house? I'd imagine that by now, whomever's out to get you knows the route you take into your home. Besides which, it's not at the door that assassins are likely to come at you. It's once you're inside and there are far fewer witnesses."
