Biography:

Mother Tara is a member of the Preisthood of Solamair (I'll get back to you on the correct spelling) she spent most of her life at the church worshiping and studying. She was assigned to help a party of adventurers on their quest to thwart Duke Antony, a bat that wouldn't stay dead (but he takes dead and makes it damn sexy). Since the party had been greviously wounded by squirles with bows before they came to the church they decided to get the churches help on their mission so they would have the benifit of a healer. The party included Lord Inocence the porcupine noble, Spanky the wonder ferret, Vlad the erie bat, and a wolf knight Sir Luke de Shaw. She went along to ensure the quest succeeded by keeping the party members alive so they could oust Antony.

The Adventure:

The Squirrels Are Attacking:
While in the city Vlad and Sir Luke went to find out if there were any bounties that they could try for. The one they found most suitble was that of 3 weasel brothers (more on them later). After a discussion with Inocence it was decided that the group would try for the bounty after Antony was defeated. Over the course of the next few days they met another travler along the way. After a brief scuffle (where Spanky quickly went unconcious) Vanadar the wolverine ranger They stopped off at Inocence's keep to stage their next move. At this time Nargrim showed his true colors and tried, unsuccessfully, to pick pocket someone, he spend a day in the locks and was branded on his face.

A few days later the party went into the forest in search of Duke Antony and were attacked by squirels with bows again. Spanky quickly went unconscious. This time the squirels were defeated with a minimum of casulties. Mother Tara didn't do much except cast the circle of protection spell and yell at everyone not to kill the squirles. Instead of pressing on the group went back to the keep, much to the protest of Tara. They stayed at the keep for a few days and then left for the forest again. Mother Tara had to stay behind to do something at the church but followed a few hours behind.

She came across the party after they had been in a battle (Spanky quickly went unconcious). She healed the wounds that had been inflected on her party members and got an account of what had happened. Apparently several bats had swooped down on the party and knocked Spanky unconcious, stole one of Inocence's guns, knocked Nargrim unconcious and shaved off a patch of fur, took a chunk of flesh out of Vlad's shoulder and then flew away.

Gigga what?:
After resting for a several hours (regaining spell units) and traveling into the night, Lord Inocence began staring off into space and making faces as if he were having a conversation with someone. After several attempts to bring him to the here and now that were rebuffed by him saying "Leave me alone" the group sat down to wait him out. Suddenly he came back to himself and insisted we go back to his keep. When asked why he responded with his usual "Gigga what?" and then said that he just rembered that he had to do some emergency remodeling and his golden chamber pot had come in. Vlad and Nargrim agreed that they had to go back imedeatly as well. Mother Tara and Vanadar wished to continue with the mission and defeat Antony before he could become more powerful. Being out voted and reconizing the fact that just the two of them couldn't defeat him they followed the rest of the party back to the keep, with much protestation by Mother Tara.

A few days after returning to the keep an "ambasador" from Lord Rotho (one of Antony's minions). This "ambasador" was there basicly to distract Inocence who has a "weakness" for things of beauty, or rather things with breasts and a pulse. At this time 3 new members joined the group and 1 left, the wolf Sir Luke left to go marry his lover and the church assigned some more people to the party for her protection, since the thief couldn't be trusted. Alak'i a wolf would serve as a spy for her, keeping an eye on Nargrim. And Trag, an armadillo to serve as her body guard. A few days later, a white bangel tiger named Sedrick showed up to accompany them.

Spanky The Torturer:
While at the keep, Nargrim and Vlad recevied packages. They were first delivered to Inocence who opened them to see what was inside. He discovered a gread deal of money.vInocence became suspisious of them and confronted them about it. When he didn't get an answer to his likeing he had his guards take them and Vanadar (because he made an attempt at defending Nargrim) to the wine cellar for "questioning". Spanky managed to get answers to Inocence's liking from the 3 of them, determining that Vanadar didn't have anything to do with the matter. Spanky did end up taking Vlad's money from him ("and as you walk up the stairs with my money you see a tear roll down my cheak") and found out the location of Nargrim's money. The only torturing Spanky ended up doing was kicking Nargrim in a sensitive area. The rest of the group heard a very loud high pitched squeal. Once the three were released, Vlad and Nargrim proceded to get very drunk in front of everyone and Vlad professed his undying love for all those in the group, even the ones he hadn't seen before.
