Re: The Wrong Guys IC
It didn't take long for Llaars to walk to the main area of the tavern to speak with Carla. He puts on his best smile and approaches the dark haired woman. "Hey, I need to ask you a favor."

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
Carla hands a few mugs of ale to some shady customer or another before turning to Llaars. "Sure, what's the big favor?" she asks, arching an eyebrow.

"I need you to go to the butcher shop and pick up a bit of meat, but I need a container of the blood to go with it as well." As he spoke, he had gathered several mug and began filling them with ale, none of the really strong stuff, and was readying it for the group in the back. "Try to get at least a quart of it."

Carla opens her mouth, seems to change her mind aout what she's going to say, and says in an undertone "Odd request. Mind telling me exactly what you need this blood for?"

"If you quit askin' questions and just do what I asked, you can keep the change." He retrieves the coins for the purchase and hands them to her, leaving about five silver over for Carla. He starts to move to rejoin the others, trying not to be rude, but at the same time not in the mood for questions.

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
Carla comes back about half an hour later with a glass bottle of blood. She hands it to Llaars, and leaves without saying a word.

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
Llaars
Dammit! Now she's mad...
He walks in with the meat and blood and carries it back to the others. "She awake yet?" He sets down the meat, not knowing where else to put it for the time being.

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
"Not yet." Audric looks up from the girl to Llaars, nodding when he sees the packages he is carrying. "Now what? Should we wait for her to regain consciousness on her own?" he asks, looking from Llaars to Antal, Rowan and Rana "Or should we try to wet her lips and see if she wakes up?"

"I don't like her condition, but we are only guessing that blood is what she needs. Perhaps we should wait and ask her."

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
"I don't think pouring a couple of drops on her lips will hurt her, even if blood isn't what she needs" the paladin replies, in a soft voice. "What worries me is how coherent she'll be when she wakes up. She didn't seem very rational when I last saw her awake."
He considers the issue briefly, unconsciously fiddling with his holy symbol. He looks worried and tired at the same time. "However, I don't want to scare her any more than necessary. It's probably for the best if I take a back seat in this. You'll need to be the one to start asking her questions when she wakes up, and if you say you'd rather wait for her to do it on her own, I'll defer to your judgment."Last edited by Strawberries; 2010-10-31 at 05:32 PM.

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
"I agree that it won't hurt her, but I'm concerned what her reaction will be if she doesn't drink blood and wakes up with blood in her mouth."
Rana turns to the berries that Rowan bought, and passes her hands over them, while murmuring something. She examines the handful carefully, then picks out five of the berries and eats two. "Anyone else still hurt?"

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
We should tie her up, she may not be in control of her actions... or she may.Last edited by Jallorn; 2010-10-31 at 08:23 PM.

OOC: I thought she already was tied up. We tied her up at the house, and Rana is in no mood to untie her anytime soon.

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
Majority vote wins.
About two hours later...
The girl stirs, trying and failing to stifle a whimper in the bedsheets. She sits up slowly, not willing to look any of you in the eye. She remains rather hunched over, and flinches when anyone moves.

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
Rana is still sitting on the bed next to the girl when she wakes up, and addresses her gently. "Hello. My name is Rana. Do you remember what happened?"

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
"Um...you and that g-girl," she stammers, pointing at Rowan, "I heard you in the fr-front room. I tried to eavesd-drop, see why you were there, see if you were allied with that awful w-w-witch, and then next thing I know, I'm all tangled in a chair. I've been so h-hungry, for so long...I-I don't know what that sorceress did to me, but it makes me want to h-hurt people...kill everyone...destroy e-e-everything..." Her voice breaks several times, and by the time she's finished, tears are streaming down her face.

Queitly, to the paladin, Antal says, She's certainly not fully undead, they have no emotions... or, so I've heard.

"Well, we aren't allied with the witch. Maybe we can help each other. But first, what is it that you need to eat? I can tell that the food that she," Rana points to Rowan, "gave you isn't enough, or isn't right."

"You said you're hungry? What do you need? Cause we've been trying to figure out what to give you for hours." He kneel next to her, trying not to be imposing to the poor girl.

"I-I don't know," she mumbles. Her face is flushed, two dark gray spots appearing in her cheeks.

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
SpoilerSense motive, first of all. Because this game is making me paranoid sense motive - (1d20+9)[13]. Oh, and also Detect magic, out of curiosity, to see if the strange aura she had is still detectable or not now that she is conscious.
Audric nods in acknowledgment to Antal's words. He has deliberately kept a bit behind the others, out of a direct line of sight, so as not to frighten the girl. He shifts a bit to draw her attention. "My name is Audric. I am not here to harm you." he keeps his voice as gentle and unthreatening as he can. "We have an idea of what you may need, but we are not sure. Can you...could you try to drink something and tell if it helps?". He gestures for Llaars or Rana to get her the bottle of blood.

Audric
Spoiler
She seems to be telling the truth.
The illusion magic is gone, the singing and the scent of blood and grave-dirt is still present. The purple light has taken on a distinctively reddish overtone.

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
SpoilerAjadea: since I have no idea of what that means and can't make Spellcraft checks (note to self: really invest some point in Spellcraft asap ),can I try a knowledge roll? Just in case I can:
knowledge religion - (1d20+3)[19]
Also, we should really feed the poor girl. Hoping that's not a mistake...

Re: The Wrong Guys IC
Audric
Spoiler
Your best guess about the mess you see from her aura is that she's been magically spliced with some sort of predatory undead. It's completely unprecedented. In all the years the Order of the Golden Hand (yes I ad-libbed that on the spot for the name for the paladin order, but it's canon now, deal with it ) has existed, there has never been a single report of someone being caught between life and undeath.
