=========================================================== The Unnamed Shop by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- In a back alley of a back alley, down a flight of steps, one can find an unmarked door. Nym, Raegar, and Nobblywonk sold some cursed items here before the Champions Games. =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by Raegar Ironhand ----------------------------------------------------------- Raegar knocks on the door. =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek, standing behind Raegar, fumes with impatience. Sweat rolls from his hands, which are gripped tightly around his greataxe. =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- A voice from behind the door calls, "Enter!" =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek enters. =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- The shop is a small room with a single counter. The wall behind the counter has an old wooden door and some empty shelves. A thin man with bright orange hair and mutton chops stands on the other side of the counter. "How can I help you?" =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek lowers his axe and clears his throat. "Yes, ahem, hello, my good man," he says. "My friend and I were told that this was the place to come to find, ahem, armor of a very special kind. You know, armor that was once a dragon. Maybe even a brass dragon? We were told to talk to Tincheron." 12:44, Today: Othrek Svearmiirik rolled 19 using 1d20+1. Bluff. =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by Raegar Ironhand ----------------------------------------------------------- Raegar stays in a stoic stance next to Othrek. =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- The man looks puzzled. "Tincheron's not here, and we haven't had any dragon-hide in here for months." =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- "When will Tincheron be back? Or can I find him at another place? What is your name?" =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- "I'm Bran Fleemason. And who might you be?" "Tincheron should be in Skullport I think. I'm not sure when he'll stop in. Maybe tomorrow night. Probably. Should I give him a message?" =========================================================== Re: The Unnamed Shop by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- "No, Bran Fleemason. I'll come back," Othrek says. He motions for Raegar to follow him back into the street. Once they are outside, he whispers to Raegar, "I'm thinking I want to set up an ambush for Tincheron when he returns. But we'll need a spy or a lookout to alert us. Maybe that centaur sneak could be of use again. Othrek heads back to Nobblywonk's house, stopping at a conventional store along the way to do some shopping. =========================================================== 2 Marpenoth by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- The group stands in the back alley at the top of the stairs leading down to the shop. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek hands the unholy club to Zerryn. "Take this evil weapon into the shop and try to get the best price you can for it. Tell me all that you see. If you can distract the shopkeeper and somehow sneak into the back, that would be most helpful. We'll be waiting right here. Good luck." =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Zerryn Zym (NPC) ----------------------------------------------------------- Zerryn returns a short while later. "I sold the club but couldn't get into the back of the store. There's a red-headed shopkeeper in there, but no half-dragons." =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek walks into the shop and hails the attendant. "Hello again, Bren Fellmaron. Has Tincheron returned yet from Skullport?" =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- Bran answers, "I think he'll stop in tonight. Are you brothers or something?" =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek is briefly horrified. No, not possible. I have no long-lost relatives. And what brother of mine would willfully buy and trade in his own father's hide? he thinks. He leaves the store without answering Bren's question and is slightly shaken. "Let's hide here and ambush the scoundrel when he comes by tonight," he says to the group when he is back outside. Othrek will try his best to hide somewhere in the alleyway and watch for Tincheron's arrival. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- Night falls. Many hours go by, but no one enters the shop. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek scratches a tuft of hair on his chin. "Well, he doesn't seem to be coming. There is Plan B, which essentially involves attacking that shopkeeper in there and coaxing more info out of him. We can't get in trouble, right? I mean, it's a criminal enterprise! Any objections? No? Okay, let's go!" Othrek leads the group into the store and throws a tanglefoot bag at the reheaded shopkeeper. 14:23, Today: Othrek Svearmiirik rolled 11 using 1d20+10. tanglefoot throw from 10 ft. 14:23, Today: Othrek Svearmiirik rolled 7 using 1d20+3. Init. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- Inside the shop, Othrek is surprised to see a brass half-dragon standing behind the counter next to Bran. He wears a dark blue cloak with the hood pulled up over his head. His skin is a scaly goldish-brown, and as he speaks his tongue slithers out of his mouth like a snake's. "You must be the one looking for me." His eyes notice the tanglefoot bag in Othrek's hands. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- "And are you Tincheron? Are you the half-brass dragon with the demented gall to purchase the hide of his own kind? Are you the one I have come here to kill?" Are my companions in the shop with me? =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- Tincheron chuckles, and as he does so puffs of smoke snort out of his nostrils. "I suppose I am then." His hands cross to his belt beneath the flaps of his cloak. One hand rests on the hilt of an unholy dagger, the other on an unholy bastard sword. Zerryn sees Tincheron's hands go for his weapons and pulls his bow off his back. He fires an arrow straight into Bran's chest.

No one has any weapons drawn yet, except Othrek who has a tanglefoot bag out. It is a move action to draw a weapon (but you can combine the action with a movement.) You can climb up on the counter with a climb check DC 0. It costs 2 squares (10 feet) to get on top. You get a +1 to attacks against people below you. It is a move action to open the flap on the counter. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek lets the tanglefoot bag drop lightly to the floor and draws his greataxe while stepping up onto the counter. His eyes fill with the mighty rage of his father, Svearkundaax. He chops down on Tincheron. "Reveeeeeeeee-" he begins to shout. 09:36, Today: Othrek Svearmiirik rolled 22 using 1d10+19.

"What does it matter to you?" he says. "You're not a dragon. You're not even a man." He grins, his hood falling off his head, as he slices across Othrek's chest. The unholy blade burns when it touches Othrek. 07:41, Today: DM Bill rolled 5 using 2d6. unholy damage. 07:40, Today: DM Bill rolled 15 using 1d10+9. sword damage. 07:40, Today: DM Bill rolled 32 using 1d20+15. bastard sword. 07:34, Today: DM Bill, on behalf of Raegar Ironhand rolled 10 using 1d20+1. initiative. 07:33, Today: DM Bill, on behalf of Pancake Batter rolled 10 using 1d20+1. initiative. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- "-eeeeeeeennge!!!" Othrek finishes. He swings wildly at Tincheron. One axe chop hits and another misses. He bites into his foe as well. His teeth break Tincheron's skin and blood oozes. "Dragon enough for ya?!" Othrek screams. 08:53, Today: Othrek Svearmiirik rolled 11 using 1d6+10. Bite Dmg. 08:52, Today: Othrek Svearmiirik rolled 27 using 1d20+7. Bite. 4-pt Pwr. Atk.

He chops down on Bran and knocks him to the ground. Pancake moves to the wall and touches Othrek's ankle with both hands. The force of Tyr from Pancake's touch heals Othrek's wounds. A puddle of blood spreads beneath Bran. Zerryn lets off an arrow which bounces off Tincheron's scales. Tincheron bends over, winded and shocked by the force of Othrek's blows. He looks up at Othrek and snarls, "I get a half-dragon and centaur hide on the same day. Business is good!" He chops at Othrek with his sword and dagger in a blur, his sword connecting with Othrek multiple times. He finishes off with a bite that fails to break through Othrek's skin. Pancake healed 19 points for Othrek 23:15, Today: DM Bill rolled 23 using 1d20+10. bite. 23:15, Today: DM Bill rolled 8 using 2d6. unholy damage. 23:14, Today: DM Bill rolled 18 using 1d10+9. sword damage. 23:14, Today: DM Bill rolled 13 using 1d20+8. crit try. 23:14, Today: DM Bill rolled 28 using 1d20+8. sword attack2. 23:14, Today: DM Bill rolled 18 using 1d20+14. dagger attack. 23:13, Today: DM Bill rolled 9 using 2d6. unholy damage. 23:13, Today: DM Bill rolled 11 using 1d10+9. sword damage. 23:12, Today: DM Bill rolled 23 using 1d20+13. crit try. 23:12, Today: DM Bill rolled 33 using 1d20+13.

I'll make you feel pain you've never dreamed of! For my father!" Othrek's eyes burn with a stunning fury as he cuts deep into Tincehron's neck. Zerryn whinnies as he ducks the bloodspray. I added 2 to my attacks b/c I assumed Raegar would be flanking by the time I took my turn. If he doesn't, then disregard all that bloodspray stuff. 23:19, Today: Othrek Svearmiirik rolled 24 using 1d10+18. Dmg. 2nd attack. 23:19, Today: Othrek Svearmiirik rolled 25 using 1d20+12. 2nd 4-pt.

(raging). =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- Tincheron stands stunned and says to Othrek, "Who are you?" His eyes roll back and he slumps over and falls to the floor, dead. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek says to Pancake, "Stabilize the other one. We need him for questioning." Othrek searches Bran and Tincheron's bodies for a key to the shop. If he finds one he will then lock the door and search the entire store, keeping an eye out for a suit of brass dragonhide armor. Othrek takes 20 on his search checks. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- The search of the bodies uncovers a key, an unholy dagger, and an unholy bastard sword. Pancake stabilizes Bran, and Othrek locks the door. The room and shelves are bare. Othrek moves into the back room which is a cold room lined with stone walls. The opposite wall contains an archway filled with a shifting black substance. It appears to be a portal. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek ties Bran up with his rope and feeds him a cure light wounds potion. When Bran wakes up, Othrek makes himself look as terror-inspiring as possible and asks Bran: "How did Tincheron get into the store? We were watching the entrance. Was it through that portal? Where does it lead? Where is my father's skin???!!" 23:30, Today: Othrek Svearmiirik rolled 29 using 1d20+10. Intimidate. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- Bran groans as he wakes up. He takes a few minutes to realize what has happened. "I told you he was coming from Skullport. The portal goes to his shop in Skullport. This was about some suit of armor? We don't have any dragon hide armor." =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- "Tell me more about what Tincheron did in Skullport. Is it a shop just like this one? To whom does he sell his illegal items? How much does Elaith know about all this?" =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Bran () ----------------------------------------------------------- "He has a shop like this one in Skullport. People know about it. They come in and buy what they need. Elaith Craulnober owns the shops, but I've never spoken with him. He knows none of the details of what we buy or sell." =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek thinks for several minutes, then says to the group: "I must find my father's skin, or I will be living with a terrible hole in my life. I plan on going through this portal to search the Skullport shop. If you want to come with me, so be it, but you are certainly under no obligation. At least one person should stay to watch the door and guard this man. If my earch of the Skullport shop uncovers no clues, we may have to find another way to cast 'speak with dead.'" Othrek waits for a few minutes to see if anyine will follow, drinks a potion, then steps into the portal. =========================================================== Re: 2 Marpenoth by Pancake Batter ----------------------------------------------------------- "Faithful Zerryn, please stand guard," Pancake instructs and follows Othrek. =========================================================== Back from the portal by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- When Othrek steps back into the Waterdeep shop, he kneels for a few minutes and hug his father's skin. "At last, father, it is done," he says. After this, he stands up and points at Bran and the corpse of Tincheron. "What should we do about them?" he asks the group. =========================================================== Re: Back from the portal by Raegar Ironhand ----------------------------------------------------------- Raegar to group "We need to hide there bodies and contact the store owner" =========================================================== Re: Back from the portal by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- "But the store owner is the most powerful criminal warlord in Waterdeep! I don't think he'll be too pleased when he hears that we killed one of his merchants. And that one"--Othrek points at Bran--"is still alive. I mean, obviously, we can't let him go free, but I don't want to just murder him in cold blood like this. He was an unwitting accomplice." =========================================================== Re: Back from the portal by Pancake Batter ----------------------------------------------------------- Pancake mutters softly to himself while staring at Bran. Pancake detects evil on Bran. =========================================================== Re: Back from the portal by DM Bill (GM) ----------------------------------------------------------- Bran's aura is evil. =========================================================== Re: Back from the portal by Pancake Batter ----------------------------------------------------------- "This guy's no good," says Pancake. =========================================================== Re: Back from the portal by Othrek Svearmiirik ----------------------------------------------------------- Othrek kills Bran. He wraps up the two bodies in cloth and carries them outside, then discreetly hides them in the gutter. "Shall we go find your old friend?" he asks Panckae cheerfully. =========================================================== |
