Grigore

"I hate ducks" I say as I get up from bed.

after having something to eat, I head out side and look for posible ways to help the town.

Grigore-

Most orcs seem to have too much pride to let you help them, but the chicken cutting man seems to be perfectly okay with giving you a butchers knife and showing you the ropes.

You see Grath there as well.

You wake up the next morning by smelling an odd stench early on, at dawn. The stench is of something old and rotting. As you adjust your eyes to the brightness of the morning sun, you take a look at what's making the stench-

Will Save please.

Sodwah


Will save (+2): 10+2=12

To the DM: You can roll for me any saves if you feel like, just so the action moves at a better pace. I also updated Sodwah's sheet with 2 skill points corresponding to his level of 2 (+1 Sense Motive and Survival).

Sodwah-

You start panicking for a few moments as next to your side of the bed you find a severed human head, probably no less than a few hours old.

As you flip out the orc innkeeper notices and knocks on the door, "You okay? I knock you out feel better?" He says in a broken common tongue.

Sodwah

The noxious smell fills my nostrils almost suffocating me, while my mind screams for a safe place to hide and ponder about the situation. I curse my lack of precaution, of drinking too much ale last night and of sleeping without taking any minor precaution measures. My cold glance falls upon the barkeep and I feel the urge to quickly draw the swords and slash him in half, but I know that whatever I do in the next couple of minutes might decide my own life. I pretend being cool while trying to equip my armor and with a little shaken voice,

"I am fine, though someone forgot something on the floor of my room. Strange habits around huh?"

Grigore

I approach the chicken killer and Grath and politely say "Mind if I help out?"

you said i woke up at the crack of dawn, and the head sodwah found was a few hours dead, exactly when does he wake up? should i not have heard anything?
also when i wake up am i still tired or rather awake from what i have seen?

if i am not tired i begin to ponder on the dream and leave my room.. therefor i might also see or hear something before sodwah wakes up with the head :S

@Esterimas

exactly when does he wake up? should i not have heard anything?

You all woke up around the same time, give or take a few minutes here and there. None of you heard anything the night before other than the crickets outside your windows.

"Crack of dawn" is simply a figurative term I used loosely. Regardless of whether Sodwah woke up before all of you, none of you heard the resulting panick.


@Sodwah

"I am fine, though someone forgot something on the floor of my room. Strange habits around huh?"

"Dokay! You need good nights sleep though, give me shout, me come bash your brains in and you sleep good!" You're not exactly sure if he's threatening you or if he's literally stupid enough to believe he'd be helping by doing that.


@Grigore

"Yes, definitely yes! I have to go through 500 chickens today. Could definitely use the help," he says handing you a spare butchers knife. His is clearly better but yours still looks sharp enough that it'll do the trick. "Elf human thing, you wanna help too you can...you gather up the heads."



A note to all players-

Apart from it being your own action and therefore your own decisive die roll, one of the reasons it's best that you roll your own dice for your own actions is that it takes a lot of the work off of me. Running a campaign is a lot of work afterall, so if you do post an action of some sort that you know will require a roll, it's best to just include that roll.

Esterimas Deed

well i am just going to wait for us to meet the next day and share my dream basically about a 200 year old lesbian imprisoned in the island of kortos and also

"Am i the only one who had a weird night?"

Sodwah

I take a short break to catch my breathe while thinking the damn orc could use a sword in his back. Then I continue with as a friendly smile as possible considering the situation,

"Any idea why someone would throw a cut off head in the middle of my room? Does this thing has any significance to you? Is this some kind of message for me? Maybe this is some local custom I should be aware of? I really need to know, so if you can help me out I guess we can be very good friends."

While talking my fingers play a bit with a few silver coins suggesting they could change ownership if he gives me any valuable information.

Diplomacy (-3): 6-3=3

Out of Game: I will be out for 2-3 days due to work commitments. Please go on without me, I will let you know when I am back.

Grigore

I spend the rest of the day helping the orc chop the chickens head

In the evening I spend my time sitting on a table with one drink

"Well I had... a recurrent dream, don't know what it means?

Grath
"Oh, I wish i was one of those able to interpret dreams, they are just so interesting. Seemingly special dreams was a thing last night, I'm sure it's a coincidence. Wish my dreams were special from time to time as well" I say to Grigore as he shares his tale that night. Drinking some wine and eating chicken.

@Sodwah-

"Ha! You piss off orc, this the way they threaten you.

Me find it crude, it humorous but no real taste, prefer direct confrontation. So wasn't me, you'd know it me by being deader than you are now."

I raise an eyebrow and continue with a surprised voice,

"I am not sure what are you talking about. Who did I pissed off so he feels the need to threaten me? Just tell me so I can talk to him and explain that he got the wrong person."


Diplomacy (-3): 17-3=14
Sense Motive (+4): 6+4=10

"Dun know who you piss off, that between you and that orc. Me, me just own this bar, that all.

If you alright, please leave. We have drunk orcs needing room right now."

Vierro

Vierro rises up from a deep sleep, he had no dreams, as usual. Spending an hour in his prayer, praying with his greatsword used as a holy symbol, as his God prefers force and judgment instead of the ritual parading.

Putting on his half plate with help from a tavern wench he drops her a coin, she earned her fair living, as should everyone.

He's used to this sight, Orc settlements, where nothing is illegal, and brute force reigns supreme. He tries to save them all, but not everyone wants to be saved. Force is supreme at the end, and if anyone tries to sin near him, he will show him strength.

Coming to the butcher he sees his party mates helping.

"Good thing you are doing fair work, instead of being in random brawls. I know how tough Orcs can be, I can feel that sensation in myself sometimes."

After I greet my party mates, I take a walk around the settlement, my sword out, ready to accept any of the savages aiming for the fair man. I try to find someone to help, ready to use force, even against overwhelming odds.

OOG-

Keep in mind Ur-quan, with your intelligence and wisdom being 8 and 7, your character would not have the composure to speak the way he just did, despite his charisma.

So while your charisma will give you the conviction and resolve to know exactly what you want and how to behave, you may not be able to communicate that thought so eloquently, it might sound more broken and rustic (Redneck-ish).

In game-

The butcher-

"Well, I used to do this to others, but then the war ended and Starfall had to abolish slavery, destroying the whole purpose of it's Arena. So now I put my skills with a blade to use here, with the chickens!" He seems almost too excited at the thought of cutting something's head off.

Sodwah

I nod towards the orc,

"I am sorry if my inquiries bothered you. I will take my leave at once."

Then, finishing donning my armor, I quickly grab the rest of my equipment and get out in the sun to find the rest of my comrades.

To the DM: I am not sure if I have paid the room or if I should subtract any amount of money from my cash. Please let me know if there is the case.

Keb paid for the room, and reserved a room for you later tonight.


I will post a much bigger update when Froggie's character is made.

Vierro

Walking through the streets, without anyone really daring to approach him, he decides it's time to return back to his comrades.

Walking to Sodwah, he says:

"You look distressed, what happened inside?"
