Game Update #25 in sequence (file #67)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Admin notes: A surprise update!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Recap]
From Ben'dar: [Re: Actions]
No, that joke was pretty much in-character for Ben'Dar. He
can have a bit of a mischievious streak in him from time to time...
Ben'Dar plans on looking into the corrupt gaurd allegation when
he returns to the ranch. He will have a discreet chat with his
steward on the ranch to let him know that one of the gaurds may
have a questionable background. No background checks will be
performed at this point, but the steward will be aware that he
needs to keep his eyes open.
Ben'Dar approaches Unali. "Well? Why do we wait here?" he
asks quietly.
GM: Ack. Cool. Thought it was a fun thing.
---------------------------
From Raban: [Re: Actions]
<OOC: At this point Raban should fetch his backpack and other
gear. I do not know if those are in this building or not. He
could have a room here or elsewhere or have his pack near the
stage. There is nothing not easily replaced in his packs, but
he would prefer to keep them. So I will post assuming he has
things in a room here. The GM can of course change things to
fit what he thinks is appropriate.> <Addendum to the GM: Any
valuables that were assumed to be in the packs should be in
some smaller container that he can either wear unobtrusively
or can keep near him when he is working. Belt pouch preferred.>
[After having gathered what instruments and other gear Raban
had near the stage he will go upstairs to his room to get his
remaining gear. His backpack is always packed and ready since
Raban knows he often has to leave at a moments notice. It does
not take long to add his working gear to the rest and buckle
the straps. His hundred pounds of gear is of little notice as
he slings it casually over a shoulder, but then he pauses and
sets it back down. He opens up a section of the packs and pulls
out his traveling clothes and leather armor. He quickly changes
clothes, dons the armor and repacks.]
<This part may need changes if I do it wrong.> [Knowing that
there is likely to be more problems in the immediate future,
Raban prepares to do some magic to help. With a prayer to his
Goddess Miryan, he asks for her help in a Blessing to defend
himself so he may better defend Z'leyra and Unali. Once that
is done, he reslings his gear and walks back to the others.
Setting his gear beside the table, he turns to the two ladies.]
"Z'leyra, Unali, I know you are not followers of Miryan but
she is not opposed to my aiding you. If you desire it, I will
gladly give you her Blessings to defend you from your enemies."
GM: Ack. For Gear I tend to let the gear in obvious locations.
Weapons on person. But bedrolls may be in a room or
elsewhere for example. For tavern situation and since
your an entertainer you'd likely not do good to have
weapons but just wear your basic clothing and instruments.
Things like even jewelry can distract the audience to
look at those things than your actual performance. :)
But I get your general idea. Since your words are
after you pack up it will take several minutes to do
all of that. So may take awhile before get there.
Its a good thing to say once the message is delivered to
Chion by the messenger :).

[New Stuff]
[Marqi 29, 1633TH. 1st Day of Adventure #4.
Location: Maren City, Chion's House]
[Time: 8:24am]
[Fremea continues to ask questions of the assassin. She shows
no emotion during the questioning or during Chion's actions
with the knife. She knows he deserves everything he gets and
more. She smiles to herself about how much he will get.]
Fremea: "So, you decided to take Unali yourself. Seems hard
to believe that you alone could have done everything in the
tavern, other than throw that dart. So, who else were you
working with? How do I contact them?"
Kel: "I was working alone. You can contact the others in prison."
[Fremea turns to Chion and whispers in his ear.]
Fremea: "If there is anything you want to ask, let me know.
He will answer to me."
[Disappointed that torture is over for now, Chion nods and
considers some questions then asks them.]
Chion: "Are you familiar with the works of Shan Yu? He was
an interesting philosopher. I believe we have other questions
for you to answer, and since you seem to be so agreeable
perhaps we shall have some other questions for you. Fremea,
ask him the following please;
What is his country of origin?"
Kel: "Clima."
Chion: "Who was your associates Unali took down?"
Kel: "Unali is her name? Friends and fellow patriots who defended
Climan against vile foreign invaders."
Chion: "Was Unali your only target?"
Kel: "Yes. She was the only one visible I could locate who
was in the takedown of my friends. The others I could
not locate them."
[Chion mulls this over he must mean the local guards or the
people Unali mentioned this morning in her story of taking
down the spy network. She mentioned no names but sounded
like friends of Duke Aren or those who worked for him.
So Kel couldn't locate them might indicate Aren's own
network is well hidden.]
Chion: "Are you working alone?"
Kel: "Yes. Now I am."
[Chion figures this man to be foolish enough to take out a person
in a bar full of others is either desperate or being tracked.
If he is being tracked maybe there are ways to track him with
magic. That would make him desperate enough to attack in
broad daylight and in a hurried ill planned attack. Either
that or this guy is a really really bad assassin.]
Chion: "Thanks, Fremea."
[Chion looks Fremea over and finds no physical injuries but
Fremea hasn't asked for a healing spell yet.]
-----------------------
[Marqi 29, 1633TH. 1st Day of Adventure #4.
Location: Sivas, Marentia, Green Eye Tavern.
[Time: 8:24am]
[Ben'dar folds his arms feeling trapped in this place even
when he could storm out is not fun. He considers the words
of Micah and the guard. On one hand the guard hasn't stolen
anything yet, that they know of. On the other hand he
should've mentioned it on being hired. On the other hand
if a felon wants to start a new life and can't get a job
as a city guard become a mercenary. Is that so difficult
to understand? Maybe not. Ben'dar runs out of hands
in the inner debate and walks toward Unali.]
Ben'dar: "Well? Why do we wait here?" [he asks quietly.]
[Raban continues to gather up his gear at the stage.]
Actions? Comments?
Next update...Friday..maybe...
GM: Arawn - Still no post gotten here or list. :<
Chion/Fremea - Any more questions? What next?
GM: Went ahead and did another update since had questions
from Chion/Fremea. Events in the tavern will slow
down as time catches up and decisions are made for
the prisoner. Once that stuff is decided tavern
events can move on.
MG: Will do update Friday or Monday. But no rush for you
guys. If you get stuff out for me that's fine. If
not. That's fine. I just did this so answers to the
questions can be seen right away.
