Episode 0: Dahyrst

[Rex]

Are the squares 10 feet or 5 feet?

[dmw71]

Are the squares 10 feet or 5 feet?

They're 5-feet.

[ravenn4544]

Bren is confused about what has triggered the reaction. He remains calm - and ready...


That map is just fine - clear and easy to read!

[Rex]

Strega

Strega will try to keep track of the seller with the egg.

Perception [1d20+4] = 12+4 = 16

[Monsieur Rose]

Rumble

Rumble smiles a toothy smile as the tension rises. You can almost see his fur rippling in anticipation. "Told you, boss. You shouldn't have trimmed your beard. Nobody recognizes you anymore."

Rumble cracks his neck and winks at guard #1.

[drpete]

Oskar

Oskar shakes his head, aggravated. To Rumble, he says "Unless I'm weaving the diamonds into my beard, it's not her business."

Turning back to the elven woman, still offering to send over a few diamonds with Tannaris... "So, we gonna do this, or d'jou want me to shave it all off first, sweetie?"

Hoping that this can count as help...? I'll roll, at least

Convincing the elf woman (charisma) [1d20-1] = 14-1 = 13 (with advantage?) [1d20-1] = 11-1 = 10

ok, so advantage wouldn't help, but not a terribly shabby roll...

[dmw71]

Problems?
"Something is not right here," are the last words spoken by the the elven seller before the situation escalate, and her guards took up a defensive position in front of her.

"Amateurs..." Oskar runs his hand down his beard, scowling. He waves Tannaris over and holds out a few diamonds for the fighter. "We're here to deal, not fight," Oskar says. "Stand down your men, and my man will bring you a few of the diamonds for inspection."

The seller appears to consider the request... then shakes her head from side-to-side. "No," she starts. "Not him -- you. You bring me the diamonds."

"I need a closer look at you."

"Told you, boss. You shouldn't have trimmed your beard. Nobody recognizes you anymore." Rumble adds quietly, winking at the nearest guard.

It might be information that would be damaging to the people who or consigned you to exile, and hence the reason for your return to society.

Rolls

[drpete]

Oskar

Oskar shakes his head, aggravated. To Rumble, he says "Unless I'm weaving the diamonds into my beard, it's not her business."

Oskar makes a point of visibly removing the bag of diamonds from his belt, and giving the bag (aside from the sample he's bringing over) to Tannaris, instructing him so that the elf can hear. "These are theirs *after* we see the egg."

While handing Tannaris the bag, Oskar will try to sneak the pin away from Tannaris. He will then approach the elf, diamond samples in hand. "So, we gonna do this, or do you need me to shave, first?"

Slight of Hand [1d20+4] = 13+4 = 17

Repurposing the post above... dunno if we're at the rolling stage for the deception, yet, and if you want to go with that previous roll or not...

[ravenn4544]

Bren remains still as the tension mounts. His eyes mostly stray to the bag which likely holds the egg, looking for a glimpse to confirm its truth, between quick glimpses at the foes splayed out before him.

[dmw71]

His eyes mostly stray to the bag which likely holds the egg, looking for a glimpse to confirm its truth..

Can you make me an Intelligence (Investigations) check?

[ravenn4544]

Bren

Int (8) [1d20-1] = 19-1 = 18

[ravenn4544]

Bren squints and studies the backpack carrying egg a little closer. He peers again uncertain. "That looks too small to be a dragon egg in there... What exactly do you have...?"

[drpete]

[dmw71]

Exchange
After being specifically called out to make the exchange, Oskar demonstratively removes the bag of diamonds from his belt. Reaching in slowly, so as to not draw unwanted suspicion, he removes a few of the jewels, casually shuffles them in his hand, then passes the rest of the pouch to Tannaris, whom accepts the package... and the tracking pin, which Oskar nimbly passes possession of. "These are theirs after we see the egg." he says, loudly enough for the seller to hear.

While the package and tracking pin exchange is taking place, Bren studies the backpack supposedly carrying egg. He tilts his head, squinting his eyes in full concentration. "That looks too small to be a dragon egg in there... What exactly do you have...?" the sorcerer asks, before Oskar takes his first step towards the selling group.

Strega and Rumble stand at alert, keeping close watch on the seller and first guard, respectively.

The seller straightens up, taken aback by the accusation. "What do you know of dragon eggs?" she asks. "Do you want this, or not?" she asks, not waiting for a response.

She waves Oskar forward.

[ravenn4544]

Bren raises an eye quizzically. "What do I know of dragon eggs?" He slowly extends his arms with his palms facing the stranger. He speaks the phrase zu'u am dovahkiin as sparks slowly fall from his hands like a waterfall and disappear before they touch the ground. "Do you not see a dragonborn standing before you?"

*cast cantrip - prestidigitation*

Dragonkind
"But, of course..." the seller starts. "But brass and red are of very different sorts."

"See --" she says, swinging the backpack in front of her and unfastening its straps. She flips the top open exposing the crest of what appears to be a large, red egg.

"Now, can we do business here or not? You -- " she says, pointing at Oskar. "Bring the diamonds to me."

Oskar

Things having taken a curious turn, Oskar approaches the elf woman somberly, leaving the bulk of the diamonds with Tannaris. He holds his handful of the diamonds out in his hand, hoping to draw the woman's attention to the diamonds, rather than his face.

"Please, inspect these... we're not looking for problems, just verifying the merchandise."

Inspections
With just the sample diamonds in his hands, Oskar approaches the elf woman somberly. He holds his handful of the diamonds out, in the direction of the woman's face. "Please, inspect these... we're not looking for problems, just verifying the merchandise."

The seller peers at the diamonds briefly, nods her head slightly, but then cocks her head sideways and takes a closer look at Oskar himself. "You're not..." she continues to study her perspective buyer. "You're not exactly what I was expecting," she says, completing her previous thought.

After a moment passes, she seemingly is willing to overlook the imperfect expectation match. "You there --" she says, pointing at Tannaris. "Expose the rest of the contents of that pouch." The elf complies, from his current position.

The elven seller flashes a brief grin.

"Seal it up and toss it over," she instructs Tannaris. "Once I have the rest of the diamonds --" she says, scooping the sample diamonds from Oskar's hands into her own, and taking a quick, closer look at them. "Once I have the rest of the diamonds in my possession, I will pass the backpack with the egg to your friend here."


"Are we in agreement?"

      • The quiet seclusion of your extended hermitage gave you access to a unique and powerful discovery. The exact nature of this revelation depends on the nature of your seclusion. It might be a great truth about the cosmos, the deities, the powerful beings of the outer planes, or the forces of nature. It could be a site that no one else has ever seen. You might have uncovered a fact that has long been forgotten, or unearthed some relic of the past that could rewrite history. It might be information that would be damaging to the people who or consigned you to exile, and hence the reason for your return to society.

Oskar

Oskar turns to face his companions, raising a hand to indicate that they should wait, and placing the other on the woman's shoulder.

"You have a deposit. When our dragon confirms the egg, the rest are yours."

As he touches her, he will attempt to plant the pin on her shoulder... using inspiration...

Slight of Hand [1d20+4] = 18+4 = 22 Inspiration: [1d20+4] = 15+4 = 19

Tannaris Vethykos

Watching the transaction taking place. Tannaris attaches the pouch to his belt while the dragon egg is examined.

That way he has his hands free if things go south.
