You don't need to write out my whole username. Cas or Casual will do fine.

As for Vlad, he is beginning to grow slightly irritated. You won't like him when he's irritated.

Eilis doesn't like him already she thinks that he is pretty stupid even for a little man.

And Vlad thinks if it can't talk better than a goblin it probably dies screaming like a goblin.

EDIT: Incidentally, the minotaur story is true. Vlad (who at the time was a barbarian 3 / Fighter 1 non-gestalt) took a bullhead out in one-on-one combat. He crawled down a well and after dropping from a rope that didn't make it all the way to the bottom he found a Minotaur inside (odd campaign). Minotaur won initiative, charged, and rolled a 1. Vlad and the minotaur each got in a full round of melee and on round two the minotaur went down. I was fairy impressed. However, later in the same day Vlad also took an ogre in one-on-one combat. At that point I was really impressed.

She's not really one for interacting with other people on her own initiative. At least, not if there's something else to do, like read or chat with sub-minds.

EDIT: For a moment I thought I revealed invisible posts, but it might just be that I didn't see page 2 when I clicked 'post reply'.

Cool story with the minotaur Cas.

I added some more interactions in the room were Nor is waiting so she gets to do somethin. Aivlis looks quite like a bookworm and she is one of the few Arcadian scholars around.

Poor Aivlis then. She is a bit shy, with great aspirations but shy.

THEChanger... it's not clear are you flying out of the window? You are in a second floor I am sorry it seems I didn't made that really clear earlier, you are in the Broken Tree it's a tavern of Arcadia were most of the Wall Defenders meet.

Oh. That was not clear.

But you know what? I like that idea. Yeah, Madoc is leaping out of a window, and across rooftops for a little bit, and before hitting the square he'll be dropping back down to street level.

I don't. :/ Was it possible for me to?

I just figured she was some sort of mystical elf girl and maybe a member of some tribe out in the wilderness or something. I hadn't given it much thought. You can gloss over the information if it would ruin everything for me to find out.

EDIT: Lol. Just realized I maybe should have. Slight dumbass moment on my part, sorry. I can be thickheaded.

Yes, I now have suspicions on who she was.

All the same Vlad wouldn't have known so it's fine. He's an outsider. Always is. Besides if it doesn't involve him, he usually doesn't care.

And despite how well he'd probably do, Vlad doesn't have much connection in the arena circuit. He's mercenary through and through. Arena violence is too... tame.

So it's all good. Arena champion probably wouldn't scare Vlad anyway, and he can't comprehend level 25 gestalt. :p

For the matter she is lvl 8 gestalt, so are major NPCs, minor NPCs are lvl 6 or 4, or even lower.

Good to know. Vlad could probably take a lvl 6 gestalt depending on build. Level 8 would probably be pretty hard.

Yes she is quite out of your league at the moment, she does fight unarmed though (0 equipment, that might be a bonus) the rest of NPCs have NPC wealth by level invested in equipment.

Major NPCs that the party has met are:
-Rothrick Glenfusson leader of the Wall Defenders (met by Madoc)
-Marcia Longshadow leader of the Silent Knights (met by Ripley, seen by Madoc and Nor)
-Eilis Crimson champion of the arena (met by Vlad)
-"Talky" crazy dragon prophet ("met" by Ripley)
-Maron Goldtooth (seen by Nor)

Thanks PersonMan

Thanks Loki

I am going to recap where everyone is atm (and what is everyone doing atm).

-Rosapia => Broken Tree Tavern
-Vlad => Ogre's Belly Tavern
-Nor / Ripley / Madoc => Goldtooth Manor (Waiting room)

In said waiting room there is also a scholar woman who is engaged in a conversation with Nor she is almost whispering so it is hard to hear them without being noticed. Ripley is waving at Madoc who just entered the room.

On the taverns, Vlad hasn't really discovered who the weird elf was, other than she is trustworthy and that people are scared to fight her. He has also heard of the Goldtooth expedition as is starting to go in that direction. Rosapia is trying to gather information and has met Farri Farrinson, colonel of the Wall Defenders.

Other than that people are probably going to gather pretty soon, and the real quest is going to get started. I hope everyone is enjoying the experience and forgiving my many mistakes (rereading some of my posts I almost facepalmed, I fear I gutted a couple of dictionaries along the way). If anyone has suggestions, criticism or feedback feel free to comment.

This might not be the type of criticism you meant, but I've noticed that your longer sentences tend to lack commas. It's nothing major, but I've found myself inserting commas while reading your posts every now and then.

Incidentally, is Vlad paying for these drinks? If so I'll need to know the price.

The Ogre was impressed enough by Vlad's comments about fighting Eilis that he has forgotten, he is probably considering that Vlad isn't going to pay ever, the Goliath will surely die at the jungle.

I'll check the commas
