Once Caltus' player chimes in I will be posting more for Malfiac, for sure. I don't want to assume things though, and make the pace too fast for other player's, I'm trying to give Caltus some dialogue time, but uh.... guess my time management is falling a bit short. Sorry...

Malfiac too seems a bit dismayed at his lack of manners and brings his hand to his face to cover it up quickly in an automatic reaction. "My apologies! I guess Verrick would need to know who is asking for his services. My name is Malfiac. I will let everyone else introduce themeselves."
Even a child that receives one bit of praise has the ability to excel in a single talent, and those who receive regular encouragement can feel confidence, achieve success, and become leading members of society. Because they don’t believe they are worthless, they don’t need to raise a fist and have vengeance against fate or the world at large… ~Inspector Lunge

Caltus bows to Varrick "My name is Caltus, friend. And I understand your name is Varrick?" he says.

It would certainly be to the good to travel with someone familiar with the surrounding area!"

Trying to adjust to monitoring two separate threads for game actions! :lol:

Malfiac quickly and politely corrects him, saying that he is going to be showing us to Varrick soon. Even Malfiac is not quite sure how this guy is and didn't ask for a name.... strange. "Ah, I don't think this is Varrick, I think. Yes, he was going to take us to him when he deemed us safe enough to introduce, right?"

Meh! I need a map to keep track of all the players! I'm going to hold off on further dialog until I clear my head and re-read earlier posts! :oops:

Yeah the idea of THIS thread was for NPC interaction when all the players weren't together.
I think we can move PC interaction back to main thread. Sorry for confusion Tomcat!

As Sven's words sink in Varrick starts to go pale, and he looks around the tavern, "Sven! ya gotta warn me bout dat shit! Now she'll know ima 'ere and alive!" Varrick sighs and sits down at the bar, "Well... no matta yellin bout spilt milk eh? Lemme get some o' dat dwarven stuff, I'll either be gone befo' she gets 'ere or I'll get to be drunk when she 'temps ta kill me eh? Hahaha" As Varrick thinks for a moment, "But ah... If ya do happen ta see 'er walk in and she don' see me, lemme know eh? I can alway make a run fer it eh?" He still wears a smile but Sven can tell that Varrick is watching his surroundings very carefully.

Sven and Varrick... and guest stars

As Sven brings you your drink someone tosses some bronze pennies on the counter in front of you.
You turn to see an attractive, and a little masculine woman in ring armor.

"You Varrick? " she asks as an archer steps up behind her.

Varrick looks her up and down, and makes a quick glance towards the man behind her, "Well den, don' dat all depen' on who askin?" Varrick gives her a wink and a sly smile, "If ya be lookin for ol' Varrick den ya cud onla wan' a few thangs. One bein o'course 'is help wit somethin and two bein ya herd sum thangs bout 'im, cud be bad, cud be good. So which is it beautiful?"

and since I have no idea when to properly apply this skill here's some fast talk!
Fast Talk: 65%

I'm not going to like this interaction very much am I? :o

Kana to whatever his name is now (Varrick :) )

She smiles coyly "My name is Kana and this is Edario " she says motioning with her head.
"I was told that you...I mean, Varrick, was someone to speak with about scouting ruins. An elf merchant told us you...I mean, HE, was worth looking up and that HE might be here, getting drunk."

Edario speaks up. "Look, we need someone good with traps. You him or not? Match the description. "

reaction roll is more suited, so I applied it to a good reaction from Kana

Varrick looks Edario over briefly before smiling wide towards Kana, "Well den... go a'ead an 'ave a seat, tell me bout what ya lookin ta do eh?" Varrick looks over to Sven, "Oy Sven! Get ma anotha round fer ma new frends Edario and tha beautfiul Kana, whateva they be wantin!" Varrick then turns his attention towards Kana, motioning for her to sit next to him with a sly smile.

Kana & Edario to Varrick

changed my mind about reaction and switched it to fast talk. That's how I roll ;)

"Water. " says Kana to Sven.
"Wine." answers Edario.
"And in a clean mug this time!" adds Kana.

She turns her attention back to Varrick
" You didn't answer Edarios question. We're leaving today. No time to waste."

Sven makes a point of loudly placing the mugs on the counter instead of delivery.
Edario sighs and goes to fetch them.

Varrick looks at Kana a bit differently after ordering just water and then going straight to the point but still keeps his sly smile and casual demeaner. "an' ya neva said where ya was goin now did ya?" He takes a long drink from his beer and then looks directly into Kana's eyes, his smile still the same but his eye's take on a more serious tone.

Kana sighs and pulls out a rolled parchment, unfurling it on the table.
"This," she points, "Is Elizabeth Bay." she runs a finger up the familiar northern road and veers of west.
"This 10 by 10 mile plot is where we are to map. However, Angela tells us that there was an old trapper setting up claw snares for pelts. Guess he disappeared. Says the lands here may be riddled with such snares. Edario is a good hunter, If you ask him, but neither of us are skilled at spotting such traps. Hence our need. "
Edario sits and she examines the mugs and takes a drink.
"That's a lot of wilderness to explore." says Edario. "Which I...WE could manage on our own. But with the traps.... I don't know...."

Varrick looks at the map and then sighs, "That looks ta be more den a few hours work... Sorry love I gotta turn ya down dis time. I already got me a group to help a three and ya know how Angie don't like dem big numbas eh?" Varrick then thinks for a moment, "Unless ya wanted ta come along wit us?

Hold off fer now and maybe come wit us or ya can go now, wors' case is you ain't goin wit us and ya gotta leave fer da area a bit lata, bes case is you get some mo' loot from anotha place and ya get some help wit ya land."
