Did you need the info for your sheet? Or did you grab it from the OOC?

Laulalith' eyes flash like molten gold for a second in response to Torhak's question. "Fire walks with me now."

Then she shakes her head and her eyes return to normal. "Sorry. I'm still getting used to this." She takes a moment to compose herself and tries to answer the question. "I ... I can speak with fire now, I think. And I have some influence on fire elementals ... both free and bound." She studies the burn mark on her finger. "And I don't think fire will burn me the same way anymore."
OOC:

TLDR: Very strong if we ever encounter a fire elemental. Until then, its not very impactful.

"That seems useful" Torhak said plainly. He did wonder what she meant about speaking with fire. He knew of course of Elementals but was his campfire trying to say things when he stared into it at night?
OOC:
Very strong in a world where elementals are bound to move things :)

Tryne smiled, "Glad I was right and it helped. I was worried you took my "explode" comment too seriously. I agree, could be useful."

As the group are discussing the ring and what speaking with fire could mean, a large, black coach, pulled by a team of four mighty black horses arrives at the hall. The driver looks over the hall quizzically, noting the unusually large shield above the door.

The driver calls out to those inside, "Good morning, I was told I would find 37 and Vice here. Lady d’Cannith sends her regards."

Meepo looks out the window and sees the carriage. "The cart is here the cart is here!" he runs back to the spot he was reading and puts his bag back together in preparation of the travels to come

Vice step outside and reaches up to pet the muzzle of one of the horses. "Hello Leon, and thank you. Although I don't think you needed to bring the horses."

Leon hops down from the driver’s seat, "Good morning, Vice.", he pats the hind quarters of the lead horse. "Not much for these elemental carts, I prefer the old fashioned way and figuring this one out would have taken more time than using my team."

He looks back at the carts controls, "Besides, the lightning spooks the horses, right Slippy?", the lead horse nickers back at Leon, who laughs. "Of course not.", he appears to reply to the horse.

"Anyway, Bela mentioned a new crew?"

Meepo comes outside with his packed bag.
"Ahh is this the cart you were talking about? It's very nice!" Meepo stands admiring the vehicle and the horses pulling it. "Is it ok for Meepo to get in?" he looks up at Leon "Hello im Meepo! Will you be coming with us?"
Dec 6, 2024 6:52 pm
"Ah, yes. In a desperate attempt at self preservation, i may have hired more than our cart can hold. Although we may have a solution ready." he calls to those still inside; "Hey, the cart is here! "

Had to dig through my notes. It’ll hold all of you. If I recall correctly, Gzizmix used to ride on the roof anyway.

"Good morning, Meepo. I’m Leon.", he bends down to shake the kobold’s hand, "And no, I will not be going into the Mournland. The Lady needs her horses back. I’ll be resting up the team and heading back to New Cyre in the morning."

He looks out toward the rest of town and grimaces, "Perhaps we go back to Vathirond, Slippy? We could be there by supper.", the horses collectively whinny. "Yes, know oats are oats!". Leon shakes his head. "I’m sure there’s a stable in town.", he mutters. "Do you need the cart taken anywhere? It shouldn’t be too hard to pull this rig off the front and turn it back."

"If you could drop it at Adrianus’s, that would be great. Can we get you anything before you leave Leon?"
Dec 6, 2024 9:37 pm
Laulalith follows Meepo out of the hall and steps up to the cart. "What a magnificent team you have here mister Leon. It's almost a shame to uthether them and let cart drive on its own." She gives one of her customary bows. "Laulalith the Bard - at your service."

Can anyone share a link to the page where Leon and Lady d’Cannith are introduced?

The artificer came out quickly to look at the cart and was temporarily disappointed at that sight of the horses. Tryne was sure Vice had said the cart was self propelled, but quickly he hears that Leon simply used the horsed for he own ease and that the cart did not need them.

Tryne walks around the cart, casually checking a few things, "Very nice." having lived in the slums, Tryne had never been able to work with a whole self propelled cart, although he had stripped parts off of some junked one. He heard Laulalith's comments about the horses, but he personally could not wait to have it moving without them.

"I'll head over to the shop with the cart to help get it hitched to the other wagon. I want to take a good look at the mechanics before we head into the Gray with it."

Meepo shakes Leons hand and smiles his toothy smile. He takes look at the cart and then watches Tryne check out the carriage from top to bottom

Meepo looks to the Vice and then to the group. "Anyone in particular good at drive this thing?"

Meepo looks at the top of the carriage that can seat two. "Ooo there's even room up there for a look out for someone with good eyes"

Didn’t miss much with Leon, he is only in the last two pages of Chapter 1

Tryne responded to Meepo's question, "I've never driven one before, but certainly willing to give it a try. Having a lookout with the driver is a very good idea. Unfortunately the driver area is very exposed, so definitely need to keep an eye out while travelling."

The artificer is till looking over the carriage, "We should make sure we have some basic repair material, especially for the wheels. I can fix a lot of things, but breaking a wheel or axel would be difficult."

"As you wish, Vice.", he replies to the gnome’s request to take the cart to the smith.

Leon smiles at the elf, "Leon the Coachman, at yours Ms. Laulalith.", he says with a bow. "I’m not against such advancements, I merely prefer the connection with my team."

As Tryne is surveying the cart, the driver pulls an ornate key from inside his tunic and offers it to him. "Perhaps you would like to light it up?", he says to the artificer. One of the horses stamps his feet. "Easy Peppy, of course not while you’re hooked up.", he shakes his head. "Hop up, good sir. You can show me the way to Adrianus. A smith should have no trouble removing the hitch. He can even keep it.", he begins to climb back up to the driver seat, "What was your name again?"
