Actaeon overhears Harold talking to the governor about getting items, Harold, don't bother the man about rations- I can easily procure food for us. I am a Ranger after all. The citizens need it more.
Oct 4, 2018 1:42 pm
Harold looks at the man that spoke and ignores him.

OOC:
Gonna roll for the number of sets of armor they find
Studded Leather: 1d4-1 sets
Splint Mail: 1d2 (1 yes 2 no)

The rations are scrounged up and also provided.

As far as weapons go they have at their disposal any item found within the players handbook weapon or adventuring gear table that is 25GP or less. Anything better was either looted or just not present in the town.

Rolls

Sets of Studded Leather - (1d4-1)

(3) - 1 = 2

splint Mail - (1d2)

(1) = 1

OOC:
2 sets of Studded Leather are provided and 1 set of Splint Mail Armor.
A young man walks up to you, limping heavily on his bandaged left leg. I hear that you intend to follow the raiders and see where they've gone. I'd like nothing better than to come with you, but in this condition, I'd slow you down. In the midst of all this tragedy, there's no reason you would have heard about the fate of my master, Leosin Erlanthar, but it's important you know. He is a monk from Berdusk. He disappeared last night, after we fought a particularly savage battle against raiders. A few others and I fought our way to the keep, barely. Leosin didn't make it at all. We went back this morning to look for him, but all we found was his broken staff and this choker, which he always wore.

The monk's name is Nesim Waladra. After introductions are made, he continues.

Leosin has been investigating these raiders for months. I fear that he might have tried to infiltrate their group when they retreated, or worse, was captured and carried away as a prisoner. No one understands these bandits better than he does, and his knowledge will be invaluable against them. When you find their camp, please look for any sign that Leosin is there. One of my brothers has already departed for Berdusk to bring back help, but it will be many days before help arrives. Anything you can do before then would be a godsend
Oct 4, 2018 3:31 pm
Understood, son. Thank you. What does Leosin look like? Can you give me a physical description of him? Is there any sign that you have that would have him know we are his friends?

Harold takes his leather armor off and exchanges it for one of the sets of studded leather armor. He takes the 6 days' rations, and if no one else will take them, he will take up to 10. He also takes a rapier, and fills his quiver to have 40 arrows.
OOC:
Can Harold get ahold of a silk rope?

**At least Harold asks all the right questions, he might be some use after all.** ponders the Dragonborn as he wanders off to try the splint mail on in private.

Kel will take a Light Crossbow if there is such on the table, and a dozen bolts. "It perpetually seems a waste not to throw fire at my enemies, but a crossbow attracts less attention at night."

The young monk describes Leosin as a slender half-elf man with dark hair and a beard. He hands you the choker that, upon closer inspection, is a braided leather neckband with a silver dragon design chased into the leather. The ends are ragged, as if it was roughly torn off. Nesim says this should prove your authenticity.
OOC:
Yes to the silk rope and the light crossbow.
Oct 5, 2018 12:19 am
Kel inspects the crossbow as he listens to the young man. "Perfect. When we find your master, we'll show him this medallion, Nesim."

Harold takes out his hempen rope and leaves it on the table, replacing it with its silk rope counterpart. He figures the town can use the rope, but he wants lighter rope.

Actaeon looks down at his scale mail, then back up, Umm, I think I'm good armor wise. Unless if you happen to have half-plate armor, then please by all means use that studded leather for a guard or to protect one of your citizens. he then paces back and forth as his party members continue to dilly dally.
Oct 5, 2018 4:34 pm
OOC:
Sorry, I misunderstood and assumed that as a ranger you would have had leather armor. My bad, On3_Guy. That being said, Harold probably wouldn't care so much. *lol*
Oct 5, 2018 4:47 pm
OOC:
Haha yeah. Actaeon is proficient in medium armor, and has the medium armor master feat, so he doesn't get disadvantage on stealth checks and gets a +3 instead of a +2 bonus to ac. So he has 17 AC right now wearing scale mail. I absolutely love this feat.

An elven woman of olive toned skin, and raven hair approaches the group- sporting chain mail, a blue gambeson for decor, and a holy symbol necklace droops from her neck. She speaks in a soft soprano, Governor Nighthill she bows her head, You might recognize me as Serenity of the Greenest temple. I come to ask if I may seek to accompany these mercenaries and provide my healing capabilities to aid in the effort of ridding these lands of evil, and healing our country. she places her left hand on the sheathed shortsword to her side, and her right bears a shield. Strapped to her back is her pack, and a longbow.
Oct 8, 2018 1:10 pm
Yes, Serenity, of course. I'm very sorry for the loss of the temple and the lives that were sacrificed. Nighthill looks to the rest of you, What say you? Will you allow this grieving Cleric a chance to join you and perhaps bring some of these criminals to justice?
Oct 8, 2018 1:23 pm
Kel checks to see if she wears a holy symbol to Tiamat. If not, he says, "I'm sorry for your loss, good lady. Welcome to the team."
Oct 8, 2018 2:48 pm
The Dragonborn Paladin puffs out his chest with indignation. "I do not consider myself to be a mercenary, Ma’am. I pursue this quest to quell the evil that has descended on Greenest. Such atrocities shall not be permitted by Bahamut." He takes a deep breath to calm his anger. "But, of course you are welcome to join us... My name is Bartholomew... not Bart, as some of these reprobates like to call me, but Bartholomew." He offers his hand in welcome accompanied by an awkward toothy grin.
Oct 8, 2018 3:15 pm
"Names, right. I'm Kel Chezersk, wizard." He points at that others. "Actaeon Astor. Harold."
Oct 8, 2018 3:23 pm
Harold looks to the cleric and says, Glad you have you with us, Serenity.

He puts his hand out to the cleric to shake her hand.
Oct 8, 2018 4:29 pm
Serenity smiles at the bombardment of comments, to which she faces the Paladin first, Noted. Tis a pleasure to meet you Sir Bartholomew of Bahamuts Order. You're the one who stood toe to toe with the Half-Dragon correct? before he's able to answer, she quickly addresses everyone else, Tis a pleasure to meet you all in fact. I am Serenity Xil'varis, Cleric of Lathander. she bows, I hope to put the power of my Lords light of life to use.
