Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Braxton selects a fine looking warhammer from the wall. "Sure. I'll buy this one." He walks over to the counter and presents the shopkeeper the money.
Spoiler: TransactionsSo at a 10g discount that's 302g (I believe) for a MW warhammer. Braxton decides not to sell the regular warhammer for the moment. It's fairly light, and he figures she's not in the mood for buying things, especially if she is overstocked as it is.Spoiler: Characters

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
"Thank you ma'am," Braxton replied, though he figured that she probably wasn't paying him much attention anymore as she headed on to the back. He exits the shop and continues looking around.
Spoiler: NoteProbably done shopping at this point. I figure at this point Braxton probably starts selling BoH items, since we talked about doing that and he's the one carrying it. Or he can do that over the course of the party's stay in the city.
To double check: everyone's okay with selling the stuff on Catbeard's list (post #208)? Actually, the magnifying glass seems like it could be useful at some point.Last edited by Table Flipper; 2017-02-21 at 09:07 PM.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Finally finished with her Traditional Parsnip With A Butter Inside, Laurel wipes her mouth with one magically clean-looking sleeve, then dabs clumsily at the kitten's nose.
Then she notices something is missing. Three somethings. Technically four. Weren't the others supposed to come into the city too? That had been the plan. She sighs. "Tyrannis, looks like we're going to have to go find the boys. And the bird." She smirks, and sets off through the market to look for them.
"I think you'll like the bird, but you are not allowed to eat her. She'll stab you. The dwarf will probably try to adopt you; you may not let him, even though Freya is almost as wonderful as you. Do whatever you please to the paladin, I don't think they're allowed to harm kittens..." She rambles on to the kitten as she walks, earning her fair share of strange looks.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Terrach follows Braxton out of the shop and heads back to find Freya finished with the sausage and poking around the vendors' kiosks, and earning some slightly concerned looks from some of them. He hurries over to her. "Didn't I say not to wander. These city-folk can't be trusted."
SpoilerDid Braxton get a chain shirt for Terrach, or is that not official yet? Okay, nothing against keeping the magnifying glass.Last edited by SirCatBeard; 2017-02-21 at 11:40 PM.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Braxton/Terrach:
Braxton exited the shop, back into the marketplace. As he looked around he spotted Terrach waiting outside.
There were many merchants around still but most dealt in common goods and things a house would need. He saw some merchants weighing coins on scales. Towards the edge of the market there is a man with a handcart arguing animatedly with a merchant. The cart is stacked with bolts of cloth and there is a small pile of money on the table.
Laurel:Laurel gets many strange looks from the merchants, but they quickly ignore the crazy lady. As she looks around she spots Terrach, Freya and Braxton outside a blacksmith shop.
All: There is a sign for an inn hanging down the street. The Tipsy Harper. It has a painted image of a halfling with drunk bubbles and a comically large harp.Moved my stuff over to HERE!

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
"Your feathers. Just a couple, they go a long way. Look I promise not to sell them but I really need some okay?"
"And what, exactly, do you need my feathers for? Oh I'd love to hear this one. Is it the potion to help you sneak around at night, or is it another aphrodisiac? Say how about we have a fair trade. Why don't you give me some of your hair, or your fingernails? The old crows say a brew of that can help make you more fertile, since you humans breed with everything. I can make a pretty silver off of that." She leans into his face, her amused expression dropping. "Hasn't anyone told you that's racist?!"My webcomic!

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Laurel duly ignores the strange looks. After all, the dwarf talks to his cat, clearly she must do the same for Tyrannis to continue being The Best Kitten.
Finally she spies the rest of the group and attempts to sneak as close as possible.
Spoiler: Athedia question
Can I roll stealth untrained? I want to introduce the cat by shoving him in someone's face.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
The man's face quickly grew stormy and he shoved Zinnia back. Raising his fist as if to strike her, he looked over her shoulder and then lowered his arm. "Next time, bird. Just remember. I asked nicely." With that he pushed passed Zinnia, rejoining the crowd.
Braxton and Terrach see Laurel slowly walking toward them, obviously trying to sneak, but very noticeable due to the fact she has not stopped telling her new kitten how good he is.Last edited by Athedia; 2017-02-27 at 03:07 PM.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Zinnia snarls and turns to shout at the retreating man's back, "Next time you'll be pulling my metal feathers out of your lungs, you egg-bound son of a--" She trails off as she catches sight of the halfling woman, staring at her and saying something. What little zinnia catches makes the feathers on the back of her neck stand up and has her pretending not to notice anything very quickly. She hurries back to where she split off from the others, all thoughts of shopping and stealing momentarily shelved as she makes a brisk walk back, one claw on her blades at all times.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Zinnia catches up to Braxton, Terrach, and Laurel, making sure to keep a very wide berth of the new cat. "Hey guys!" she says with false cheer before looking around to make sure there are no suspicious people and lowering her voice. "Just so you guys know I think someone tried to kidnap me for my feathers. Or at least he threatened to do that. Racist piece of ****."

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Braxton gives Laurel a questioning look. "What are you- oh nevermind. That's a nice kitten you got there. What's their name?"
Braxton sighs and shakes his head. "Some people... We can keep an eye out for him to be sure, though hopefully nothing else comes of that." Braxton sighs again and turns to look a nearby sign. "The Tipsy Harper, huh?" Facing the rest of the group, "Shall we? First round's on me."Spoiler: Characters

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
"Yeah, these city-folk seem to be racist bastards."
Terrach frowns at Laurel's attempt to sneak. Then he spies the cat. "You got a cat? Wonderful! Amazing creatures. Isn't that right, Freya?" Freya saunters up to sniff at the new cat in its containment.
"Sounds good to me." Terrach says, happy to get out of the streets full of people.Last edited by SirCatBeard; 2017-03-01 at 12:25 AM.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Laurel jumps when Braxton speaks to her, but recovers quickly."This is Tyrannis, she coos, And isn't he just the most magnificent thing you've ever seen? she looks sheepishly at Terrach. "I... thought having a cat might help me understand better. I've never really been much for animals before, it's odd being around something that you can't talk with or order around. I didn't expect him to be so cute up close!" she scratches the kitten behind his ears with one finger.
Laurel's face brightens at the thought of free drinks from
Braxton. "Yes of course, the sooner the better! Nothing like drinks to make you forget about people stealing your feathers, or whatever. I'll be taking my own room, I hope you understand. Well, just me and this little paragon of cuddlefluffs... she trails off again to talking with the cat.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
As the group enters the tavern they see a roped off table that reads "Reserved". The rest of the tables have a smattering of people at them, and the bar is similarly populated. Some are engaged in conversation, others are taking long morose sips from the flagons in front of them. A board behind the bar lists a series of simple food available and another board lists the drinks. A bartender stands behind the bar, talking to one of the patrons.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Laurel sits down at the bar and waits patiently for the bartender's attention. "Good morning, sir! One wisdom-drainer and a saucer of water please. If you don't have any water, I suppose weak ale will do. Are you the person to speak to about rooms? I saw your flyer on the wall."
She smiles up at him, deliberately making no move to indicate she was with the others. Even if this city was really as racist as Zinnia claimed, Laurel still wanted a real bed.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
The bartender tickled Tyrannis under the chin, and then disappeared into the back room. He emerged with a little dish of water and some fish that looked like it had been removed from a stove a little too soon. After he got the cat settled he smiled at Laurel. "That would be me. We have two empty right now, or a couple half rooms if you don't mind sharing with a stranger. Those cost less. Course, no refunds if they snore." He laughed a little as he poured two fingers of a pale red liquid into a tall glass and then reaching into an area beneath the bar dropped in a large ball of ice. He then followed this by taking a long pipette and extracting a blue liquid from a heavy metal bottle. He dropped 3 drops into the drink. "6 silvers. And it's a Wisdom Dropper. For those wise enough to only drink a little of that stuff." He gestured to the metal bottle.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
"Thanks, Braxton. I hope we don't have to fight in the middle of the street either. Or in a shop--actually would you be able to go with me when I go shopping later?. And Terrach, what happened?"
Zinnia looks around--if nobody suspicious is looking their way she lowers her voice and whispers, "Actually there's another reason I think we should stick together. One of them was staring at me and whispering into a rock. I didn't catch all of what she said but I heard something about tracking and buyers. Considering the threats the other guy made I really don't like the sound of that."
Zinnias eyes flit back and forth as they make their way to the bar, and even when they step inside she looks over the entire room before going up to the bartender. "I'll take a rogues thorn and why is that table reserved?"My webcomic!

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
The man looked a little surprised at Zinnia's appearance, but quickly pulled out a metal shaker and a few bottles. After a series of deft maneuvers that even Zinnia lacked the dexterity for he poured a drink into a narrow and tall glass. The mixture was light pink at the very top, but as Zinnia looked at the clear glass she could see it gradually darkened down to the color of dried blood. The bartender put the glass down on the bar. "Couple traders reserved a room and table for their bimonthly trip up here. But they are a few days late, we just kept it as a courtesy. Repeat customers are good for business."

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
"Of course. I need to go back to the armorer to get fitted for some armor anyway." After Zinnia whispers about the other person, Braxton's eyes narrows and he lowers his voice too. "Or maybe to tell him to cancel the order. He said it would take about a week to make, but by the sound of things, we might not want to stay here that long. Either way, sticking together seems rather sensible."
Braxton ponders his choices as the others order theirs. "Forest Leaf sounds interesting, I'll have one of those, please." Braxton pulls out some money to pay for his drink and the others' first rounds. "And how much exactly is a bed in one of the currently empty rooms, good sir?"Spoiler: Characters

"Nothing happened, just everyone I have talked to here has been a jerk based on our race or nationality."
"I'll go with that group-shopping idea, too. Security in numbers and all that. Still need some nice new armor, too." In response to the Zinnia's shared suspicions, he quietly comments: "I knew there was trouble here; the sooner we get out of this place the better."
After glancing at the drink menu, he addresses the barkeep. "One Lich's Grave, if you please, and something for the lady." He gestures to Freya.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
"You've got'ta rent the room. Otherwise I rent out the other half to someone else. It's 2 gold for the whole room, 1 gold to share. We don't let people sleep down here anymore, not since the druid incident." The bartender opens a bottle of a bright green liquid and pours it into a small glass, filling a larger one with a clear liquid. He hands them both to Braxton.
The bartender did a double take at Freya and disappeared into the back again, this time returning with a whole fish. "Sorry, but don't think that she will be satisfied with the extra bits. Gon'ta cost you 3 silver." As he set the plate in front of Freya (along with a small dish of water) he reached behind him, grabbing a glass. He went to a tap on the wall behind him and poured out a tall glass of a dark black drink, with a little foam on top. He set that in front of Terrach.

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Laurel relaxes a bit when she sees the bartender talking to the others normally. Not so bad then. "I'll take another wisdom dropper, with extra... wisdom?"
Then she finally looks at the rest of her companions. "So, I guess there's no chance you'd let me have my own room? I propose three and three. Zinnia and me, Terrach and Braxton, cats as they belong."

Re: New Friends, No Axes IC
Braxton feels flush after drinking the drink, and in his slight tipsy overpays the bartender.
Spoiler: OpenNot much, don't worry. This isn't a gold for a hotdog situation (Axe). 7 gold for everything.
