Ongoing Games (In-Character)Play-by-post games are going on in this forum as we speak (well, read). All threads on this board are actual games, so please, only post on a thread if you are a player of that game.
As you depart you can tell that, by the sound of battle, that the men are holding up. A whistle then blows and more shouting hobgoblins converge towards the area...
You return home without any trouble.

"I suppose it went alright. Some hobgoblin's are quite happy with their new stuff", Scribly smiles. "I'm not sure if the carriers survived, but they seemed capable enough."
"I assume that you followed with some scrying?"
Spoiler
Who said anything about them working together? Unite them under my banner? I don't think I'm ready for that yet. Perhaps if I have my own team working for me....

"No... I actually did not scry as by having no knowledge its easier to lie than bluffing your way out. Plus scrying might leave a... mark to the eyes of the conneiseur." he says and smiles.
"Anyway, good to hear its done. Here is your belt!" he says as he provides you with a well-worn but sturdy belt.
Spoiler
And take another 350xp for this mini quest

This will be my sheet after Psychic reformation. Basicly, a couple of feat changes.
- Talented instead of Master linguist (Now I simply paid for them)
- Martial study instead of Psicrystal (Hide as a class skill and 1 turn gr. invisiblity)
Skills are swapped a bit.
- Spellcraft now strong!
- Less disguise, since I get +10 from changeling and another +10 from hat.
- Some small changes.

The +10 from changeling and from the hat dont stack... they are the same effect. You can off course use changeling for appearance and hat as it also changes clothes. Or you can have an illusion under an illusion but the max bonus would be the +10. Where you using alter self (transmutation) and on top of that illusion then it would work.
The man looks at you with slow realisation in his eyes but he shakes his head.
"To the 9 hells with you!" he responds, resisting your -suggestion-.
"And you know what, even if I were to talk..." he pauses at this point.
"BY THE POWER OF THE XAMMUX YOU SHALL HEAR NOTHING" he yells and spits a few quick words.
-fortitude save-

As a tip (based on experience from Ishmael) its not just about gagging... its about being prepared to face their spells/abilities and also negating the LOS requirement... so there are spells with vocal only... but there are almost none with vocal only and no LOS/LOE needed!
There is a burning sensation originating from your ears but it dissipates quickly and... nothing more happens. It seemed as if he invoked someone or cast something but nothing actually occurs and you are not harmed in any way.

He grits his teeth and bites his tongue. He then blinks as if confused and nods.
"Malakai is my direct superior. He handles the relationship between the Korps, me, the green blood cells and Command. He is an Aldhaven native and as such was valuable to the operation as he could direct us to who we should target next for a switch. He is as competent as he is ruthless..." he says with a resigned tone.
"The Xammux is my patron God... or rather Gods. They are a collaboration of scientists that ascended due to their ability and inquisitive attitude."
Spoiler
He basically takes you through the details of this:
"The green bloods are the spawn of Command's pet project. They are exact duplicates of those taken and can be created every few days as needed though only one of each can be 'alive' at any time. They are the backbone of the plan Command is trying to implement. They are utterly loyal to the Deepspawn and thus in return to Command." he explains
"I know that I had one, Malakai has one, one of our Korps contacts has one, Command has one, the Blade had one as well. There is another additional agent that operates a similar group as mine that also has one but I dont know the name..."

Not sure how I go about this. Does locations, looks and names fall into the All-you-know category? In other words, do I know whether he doesn't know, or might I consider asking in a different way? The duration is days...

Well thing is... consider it for yourself. Lets say you were compelled to tell the truth and someone asked you 'tell me all you know about person X'. Would you necessarily go into details about where they live? Like street address level info?
For the rings question I took it as 'tell me who has rings' and as a separate part from the all you know as it is defined diffrently.
Suggestion is not domination so the target is forced to give info but he still has his own will and interpretation. Using suggestion again and being more precise/specific can give additional info off course!
For example in the case of the Xammux he tells you everything you can read on the link as he cant avoid it.

Thing is... answer truthfully doesnt mean answer fully or completely yes? But yea, its a start ;)
The man waits for more than half an hour even until after you give a convincing appearance of being fast asleep.
He then starts trying to break his bonds. Its obviously painful for him but he continues trying to figure out how to do it. He takes frequent breaks to flex his fingers and also to ensure you are still asleep and not disturbed by the soft sounds he makes.
