Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
((Thanks for telling me, since I was hit by a fireball, I will act accordingly. In the future, I will follow these combat rules)) Steve, though wounded, stands up and sheaths his sword, "is everyone alright?" Asks Steve, inspecting the carnage "does anyone need healing?" Steve shouts. He then remembers his own pain, and puts his hand on his abdomen. He prays "Great One, giver and healer, please heal your servant" (I casted a healing spell) after his short prayer, he yells "Laura, Sam, are you guys okay? If you, or anyone else needs healing, I can lay hands"

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
What seems to be a platinum blonde woman wearing black, close-fitting, high-tech armor, trimmed in blue and gold, appears out of some of the lingering smoke near the doorway, moving carefully into the room. Her armor has multiple thruster nozzles on the boots and backpack, while her pauldrons are large and vaguely hexagonal. A pair of what might be pistols of some sort hang fixed at her hips. Her face is criss-crossed in places by dark streaks, as though she's just wiped her face with her hand after cleaning a chimney, and striking blue eyes peer out curiously at the scene of carnage from the fight with the dragon. Her long hair is pulled back into a thick braid, which hangs down her back, though she does have some bangs that help hide her forehead.
"What the heck happened in here?" Her expression is curious and worried, her eyes continuing to dart about, assessing the situation and looking for anyone who might be injured or in need of help.Why is it Plan A is always, "Get 'Em!" and Plan B is, "Cause as much collateral damage as possible"?

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
"Succeeding, cuh-learly," Adir says, putting his hands on his hips. His ears flick back against his head and he grins. "Fer some reason? T-tell me you aren't havin' more fun than you were an hour ago."
The stag would have replied to Steve about that offer of work, but the fellow seems to have been put to it already. He watches the fight with wide eyes, his large ears slowly wagging.My avatar was done by Gullara. Thanks again!

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
Laura takes a deep breath and falls to her knees, smiling like an idiot at her continued existence, then says, "Where did that gambler go? I want to give him a piece of my mind."

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
The flash explosion singes the front of Sam's clothes to stone, which promptly rips straight off and lands on the floor, too heavy for cotton to support. He sighs, more or less unharmed, though he's not free of pain.
"I think I'm just gonna go. Good luck with that." he says, turning to leave out the front door.Last edited by Deathkeeper; 2016-03-11 at 04:23 PM.

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
Steve looks at Laura, he then asks "Do you know something about that gambler? If so, now would be a good time to tell me, because like it or not, I'm helping with this." He then looks around and says "Is there a scholar or someone who is an expert on dragons? I've killed wyrms before, but none turn your stuff to stone when they'r killed, good thing my equipment is imbued with holy power, or it might have turned to stone too." He turns to Sam and says "Before you go, there's an extra set of clothes in my saddlebag, take those, you need them more than I do"

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
"wait a minute" says Steve, not even turning around, overturning wreckage "do you know anything about dragons? Especially ones that turn to stone after you kill them? If you do, it would be of utmost importance. Also, do you know anything about that gambler?" Steve continues to look through the wreckage

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
Laura opens her mouth to make a scathing reply to the paladin, then grins as he's distracted and makes a break for the door, looking to lose Steve and start finding leads about this mysterious gambler fellow.

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
Steve, still trying to stop Laura, yells "then may heaven be with you" After a moment of running, he says to Sam "hey, can you try to reason with this girl? I'm running out of breath and I need to reason with her or at least give her a better weapon than that knife"

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
The woman starts to extend her hand, but as Steve turns away from her to talk to other people, and then yell about healing people and dragons, she pulls it back, a startled expression on her face. She steps aside to let Sam pass, and edges towards the bar as Laura bolts, and Steve gives chase. After watching them go, she shakes her head, then moves quickly up to the bar, signaling to the bartender.
"I'm hoping you might be able to help me," she starts when they come over. She's speaking quietly, not whispering, but very subdued. "I just arrived here in a rather unexpected way. Do you know if there is anyone or any place that might be willing to hire someone like me? I was a soldier where I came from, and I'm best equipped for that kind of work, but I'm not really picky..."Why is it Plan A is always, "Get 'Em!" and Plan B is, "Cause as much collateral damage as possible"?

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
The bartender opens their mouth to speak as Steve interrupts. The woman looks over at the paladin with an annoyed expression, one usually reserved for new recruits. Her voice is cool, and her eyes narrow, still as blue as ever, fixing him in scrutiny.
"My name is Electra, and my asking price depends on the job offered, sir paladin," She eyes his hand, but makes no move to shake it. "It seems you are quite busy already, and I am not sure I will be able to help you much. You have sworn to someone else to help them track someone down, yet you have no information on this person you wish to pursue, and the one you swore to help seemed little inclined to take it. What's worse, is that, in stopping to talk to myself and this other gentleman," she gestures towards Sam as she continues, "You have lost the person you were attempting to help and also your best lead into the person you swore to track down. I know nothing about natural dragons; they are a mythical creature where I am from, and the only ones I've ever fought have been mechanical. I appreciate the offer, but I do not believe I will be of much help to you, being so new to this...place. If you still want to hire me, we can discuss it, but without specifics, I can give you no better answer, and I believe your time might be better spent trying to catch up to the young lady you swore to help."Why is it Plan A is always, "Get 'Em!" and Plan B is, "Cause as much collateral damage as possible"?

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
"I'm sorry for annoying you Ma'am" starts Steve, "but you can't hunt dragons with two people. The last time I fought a dragon outside of here, I had a large taskforce, and I was the only survivor of that battle. I'm willing to hire you for 1500 gold, but that's all the money I have. I'm also going to need help finding this woman. I need help from everyone willing to help, which includes you if you take my offer" Steve starts running back towards the door and calls out "Henry." A horse is heard riding towards the front door. Steve yells "Laura, let me help you, you aren't equipped to fight a dragon, or anyone but maybe a roadside thief, at least take my sword"

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
Electra considers for a moment, then shakes her head.
"I appreciate the offer, but I'm not going to be able to help you, I'm afraid." She turns back to the bartender, sure the paladin will manage by himself somehow.Why is it Plan A is always, "Get 'Em!" and Plan B is, "Cause as much collateral damage as possible"?

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
Steve says to Electra, "alright, may heaven be with you" Steve continues his chase after Laura, at this point he is already on his mount, riding after her. While riding after Lauta, Steve prays "O Powerful One, please allow your servant to find this girl so that justice may be done in Your name." As the Paladin rides on, his horse sniffs the air for Laura's scent.

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
((I need to post more frequently...this was two pages ago.))
Malicebot #8 gives a hearty laugh. He just downloaded a comic about Spidergirl, and she said a pretty funny joke to that one guy of the Fantastic Five. Also, it seemed like the situationally appropriate thing to do.
"Yes, yes we do," he says. "People to save, villains to crush, plans to thwart, and generic Eastern European cities to drop out of the sky." He doesn't laugh after this sentence, though, because he's shooting for a spit-take.
So I don't really have any inspiration right now, but heading to the Inside thread seems like a good idea. There's always things happening there, right? "Maybe we'll get lucky, even, and run into a dragon."Last edited by 5a Violista; 2016-03-12 at 05:28 AM.

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
"Whuh-- ahhhh, this place is harmless," Adir insists, blinking each of his eyes separately (and slowly) before glancing back toward the messy encounter before them. "Well. Mos'ly harmless. Alright. We can go."

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
Electra doesn't acknowledge the paladin's final words to her. She looks to what she assumes is a bartender, but is actually one of the waitresses. The waitress looks back at her and thinks for a moment.
"That was good money you turned down, you know," she starts. Electra wrinkles her nose.
"Not from where I'm sitting. I need a job, not a lost cause. That girl didn't seem to want his help, and I'm not inclined to force help on someone who doesn't want it. For all I know, he could be stalking her. And even if not, he didn't seem particularly together. If circumstances were different, I might have taken it, but I just couldn't see a way where I would do much good, anyways." She shakes her head slightly and looks down for a moment, before looking back up. "Now, then, do you happen to know where I might find work from more stable clients?"
"Hmmm," she thinks for a moment, then her eyes light up, "Well, off the top of my head, you might try the MERC offices. They're usually looking for people. You might also try HALO."
"MERC? Is that a mercenary company?"
"Yep! They have offices in Riverside and Skyside." She picks up a glass and starts wiping it.
"How do I get there? As I said, I'm new here." She smiles a bit.
"Oh, it's really easy, just hop on the Riftline, and it'll take you where you want to go. Now, can I get you something?" She puts the glass down and pulls out a pad. Electra smiles and shakes her head.
"I'm sorry, but I really need to get going. Thank you so much for the info, I'll stop by again soon." Electra stands and heads out the door. The waitress looks disappointed for a moment, but then goes to tend to other patrons.Why is it Plan A is always, "Get 'Em!" and Plan B is, "Cause as much collateral damage as possible"?

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
"Wha'? I can-- I've barely had any. I'm sober as a sailor," Adir assures her with a brilliant grin, seemingly aware of how silly that sounds. "But if you insist. Humph."
The stag fishes out his cell phone with just a modicum more clumsiness than usual and dials the sorceress. His tail flicks with feigned impatience. Her home phone most likely, her cell if she's got one and he's aware of the number. Presumably he would be. With it still ringing, he offers the little gadget to Sakura. "You wanna asker? She's gonna s-sigh at me."My avatar was done by Gullara. Thanks again!

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
As Sakura hears the ringtone she might recall the fact that even if Cessie had a car or similar type of transportation, she certainly couldn't drive it. The sorceress either walked or used her elements when she wanted to go anywhere. The only thing she knew what to use as a transportation was a horse.
"Adir? What is it?" She finally hears Cessie on the other end of the line, she sounds concerned considering the late hour.

Re: Trog's Tavern CCLI
Sakura winces and waves a hand in Adir's face. Not so loud in her ear! That said, Sakura herself raises her voice to the point that someone across the bar could hear her clearly. "Hi Cessie, it's me. Uh, can you get me and Adir home. I finally let him give me alcohol and I know he can't drive now."
