The enemy evades Rama's attack easily as it move back.

"Tsk." He clicks his tongue, disappointed that his prey is not an easy target.

"Wrap it up Mar, can't you handle a single devil." Someone from the park shouts.
OOC:
It's now your turn.

He continues to press the attack, although he is becoming convinced that his devil form isn't really good at this.

Rama tried to attack but missed.

Mar, the thief, raises his dagger and chants words. His dagger glows with electric sparks.

"You should not have come here!" Mar yells as he charge at Rama with his electric dagger.

The attack wounded Rama's shoulder, it did not cut deep but Rama got electrocuted by it.
OOC:
Roll Fortitude Save, DC 10.

The shock catches him off guard, but he tries not to let it control him.

Rama's dazed by getting electrocuted.
OOC:
A dazed character is limited to free actions and a single standard action per turn, although the character may use that action to perform a move, as usual.
"Need help Mar?" Another voice from the park asks.

"Tsk. I can handle this devil on my own." Mar says.

It seems you are surrounded by thieves.
OOC:
Rama's turn.
Aug 14, 2020 12:26 pm
"Alright, alright, I'll leave. This is your park."

Rama tries to regain control of his body and stumbles back toward town.
Aug 14, 2020 12:30 pm
OOC:
Let me roll Persuasion for you to see if you were able to convince these thieves.

OOC:
Ok good.
Seeing that there really was no point in fighting with a devil with nothing, the thief stopped attacking.
OOC:
From hostile, the thieves attitude towards Rama improved to 'unfavorable'.
"Tsk. Get out of our sight!"

"Why ya letting him go Mar?"

"That blue skin got no money you idiots!"


You took the opportunity to leave. Where would Rama practice now?
Aug 14, 2020 12:43 pm
Nursing his wounds, he'll find a open spot in town, a square. He had hoped to practice in secret so his show would be polished, but maybe he can't be that picky. With no money, he couldn't take many of the quest jobs, but this mugger encounter had taught him that he's incapable of handling any real confrontation.

He's also exhausted after summoning a sphere, and needs an hour to recover his strength.

Getting into town, he goes to the square. Finding an old bowl or broken cup, or discarded hat, he starts dancing, hoping that it will be for coin from appreciative passersby.
Aug 14, 2020 1:03 pm
The safest place in town may be the place where he came from, the guardians building. There ain't much passersby in the evening but there are still people who'd pass by whom Rama could perform for.
OOC:
I'll roll your Expertise:Dance and PRE to see how well you performed.
There are not many who'd watch a dance number without music but there are those who took pity for the devil and offered some coin and bread.
OOC:
(You gain some money: enough to gain a license or 1 equipment point or food and lodging for the day)
"You should look for a bard to provide music to your performance, I heard there's one at Sunrise tavern right now. You should talk to him." A passerby says before leaving.

After collecting his earnings (and thanking the donors) he decides to keep the money for a license. But this bard idea sounds good too. He heads to the Sunrise Tavern to see if they're still open and he can talk to this person.
Aug 14, 2020 1:34 pm
The tavern's lively at this time of the night, you hear a familiar tune performed with a lute and drum. The language used is [ COMMON ] but you can say for sure this music is popular back on earth. You enter the almost crowded building and saw the performer, it was one of the unconscious people you saw back at the goblin settlement (Dylan). He was singing and playing the lute while black tentacle like limbs emerging from the bard's shadow is playing the drums.

Strangely, his song is soothing, magical even. While listening to him you can sense your tiredness getting alleviated and you can feel that your wounds are healing.

The audience gave their round of applaues as the bard ends his set. Rama has opportunity to approach him.

OOC:
Assuming you'll translate for Dylan in his thread at the opportune time.
Rama approaches the man. "You made it back. I saw you at the goblin settlement, but fell unconscious before I could do much to help." He looks around at the crowd.

"My name is Rama. I'm a dancer, from Earth. I came here to hear you play, with an idea that we could see if we could combine our acts."
Aug 14, 2020 2:56 pm
"I'm Dylan." He offers his hand for a hand shake.

"I don't remember much what happened there." He says to his fellow [ traveler ] before drinking the beverage offered by the barkeep for his service.

"Sure, let's do it right now after this break, I just finished my first set." He says as he offer a seat for Rama.

"What song do you want me to play?" Dylan asks.
Aug 14, 2020 3:04 pm
Rama shakes his hand enthusiastically. "Where are you from?"

"I mostly did work in India cinema, what you might call Bollywood. But anything fast paced should be easy to match."

He discusses some of Dylan's repertoire and they settle on one they can adapt quickly.

"Did you hear about the noble who is looking for performers? I was thinking about going there tomorrow, now that I can afford to buy a license for the job."
Aug 15, 2020 3:36 am
"Germany. I'm a musician even back there." Dylan answers, he avoids speaking in [ TRAVELER ], the others in the bar might find the language odd.

Dance music are not an unusual request to bar musicians. Dylan knows a few of them. He also asks the staff to clear some area where the dancer can perform.

"I just heard about it from the gnome, I'm thinking of going as well. What's the license for?" Dylan says.
Aug 15, 2020 3:42 am
"Apparently you need a license to get jobs from the guild. That's where the posting for the noble was. They wouldn't give me the contact details without paying a 2 gold fee." He warms up a little, covertly. He signals when he's ready.
Aug 15, 2020 3:59 am
"I see, then I need to get one as well then." Dylan finishes his dinner and prepares to perform.

Performance time.

He'd re-introduce himself and introduce Rama to the audience and ask for their applause. Then he'd start playing on Rama's cue. Hands strumming the lute, 'extra hands' beating the drums. Dylan hopes this will be an epic performance.
OOC:
I don't know if this counts for a team check but here's a performance roll.
Also, Dylan will use Lucky Star for Rama (in case he gets a result lower than 12).
