Shadows over Galzarel 3.5 (IC)

[Tyrael]

"Not much more than 6 or so," Nick replies. "Just a warrant and enough manpower to ensure it can be carried out."

[Jair Barik]

"Hmmmm. I can right you up a warrent easy enough. Shien, go see if you can round up some men."

Shien nods and then leaves the room.

[Mabuhay]

Somebody that can see in the dark would be appreciated.

[Nidogg]

Well the way I look At it, we need someone who can convince them to let us in, someone to be an "or else ill set him on you" Someone who has worked in a dockhouse and knows where someone would hide summat, and someone who knows what the can get away woth and what they cant....

[Jair Barik]

"Don't worry. Shien will fetch you the best men available at the moment."

[Mabuhay]

As long as we're waiting, how's the wife sir?

[Jair Barik]

"Don't have one and you know it..."

Shien quickly returns and whispers something in Gallagan's ear.

"The men are ready and waiting outside."

[Mabuhay]

I turn to leave. We'd better get moving then. No time to lose.

[Nidogg]

Graham walks out of Galagans office and inspects the men they have been provided with...Right You lousy lot lets Move!

[Jair Barik]

The men in question are the following.
A human with a bow strapped to his back.
A gnoll with a flail.
A kenku with no obvious weapons.
A dwarf with a battle axe.
And an Ogre of some sort with a heavy looking club.
Each wears the black uniform of their place in the guard.

[Tyrael]

Nick nods. "Let's get this party started."

[Jair Barik]

The guardsmen will loyally follow you wherever it is you now intend to go.

[Tyrael]

Nick summarizes their mission to the other guards, then with warrant in hand he leads them down to the docks.

[Jair Barik]

Going down to the docks it doesn't look as though anybody is standing guard on the warehouse anymore.

[Mabuhay]

I look around carefully for anything out of the ordinary.

Strange, if somthing dangerous was inside then why would they leave the main gate ungaurded.... unlesss they let it out....

[Jair Barik]

Bar the missing guards you don't notice anything else unusual.

(OOC: Could youwrite in the third person like everyone else Mabuhay? Its nice to have everyone posting in the same style)

[Tyrael]

Nick frowns. "Hmmm. Maybe they heard we were coming," he muses. Glancing behind him to the rest of the men, he nods authoritatively. "Right, then. Well, we've got a warrant. Let's see what we can find in there."

With that, Nick leads the other guardsmen inside the warehouse.

[Jair Barik]

Before Nick can get inside one of the guardsmen grabs him by the shoulder, turning around he sees it is the gnoll.

"Eh boss. Dontcha think somody should stey outside praps? One guy at least, in case dey comes back ere laters."

[Nidogg]

Yeah, good thinking that man, we should leave two outside incase they come out with more men than one man can handle, we have one volunteer here... Ill stay out with you!
Graham thought: Dont like this guy, wanting to stay out of any glory hunting, bet he's getting a bit of moolah on the side to sabotage this joint.

[Mabuhay]

Jayme shakes his head, and says I don't think they'll be back.

[Jair Barik]

"Well then ja want anyun to stay outside or not then?"

[Mabuhay]

Jayme looks towards Nick for a decision.

[Tyrael]

Nick nods. "Two men outside as sentries," he orders. "Graham, you get up on the rooftops and give us some eyes in the sky. The rest of you, with me to help look around inside. Let's move, people!"

[Nidogg]

Sir! See you 'round! Graham Flies up onto the roof and looks down through the skylight

spot (1d20)[6]

[Jair Barik]

Graham is finding it hard to see into the warehouse. Its pretty dark inside anyway and he is looking upside down through a window on the wall while standing on the roof. The gnoll starts keeping watch of the area looking for any suspicous individuals or civilians who are rising early. Everyone else forms up behind Nick with weapons readied.

[Tyrael]

Nick nods to his men. "Well, here goes...."

Walking up to the door, he raps on it smartly with his truncheon. "City Watch!" he calls through the wood. "We have a warrant to search these premises!"

[Jair Barik]

There is no answer and Nick can hear no sound from the other side of the door.

[Mabuhay]

Jayme, assuming it's locked, moves forward to open the door. Allow me.

[Jair Barik]

The door was indeed locked but only in a simple fashion, the tumblers proving no match for Jayme's tools.
