Poking his head around the corner to suss out the situation, a Halfling calls out "Right, is this the place ta meet that's promising adventure?"
As he enters the area, you see that he is dressed in a colourful patchwork leather outfit, with matching top hat. Hanging off of his shoulder is a long bow.
Well done, Arafiel! Please return the can. You are welcome to watch the others. Otherwise, please be prepared to travel out tomorrow with the team. I will relay the conditions of the service tomorrow via one of my friends here at the Black Hammer. I must go ahead to prepare for the shipment that you will be escorting.

Referring to the halfling, good sir what shall I call you?
Before we are to inter into contract, some assurance that you are up for the task. As many different skills maybe called upon, please select a trial to complete. (The dwarf gestures to the stations.). We have feats of strength, special abilities, strategic mind games, or direct combat. Which do you prefer?
Following just behind the colorfully-dresses Halfling is another Halfling. This one is dressed in a dark red tunic and dark gray pants. He is obviously quite old for a Halfling, yet he carries himself well. His hair is very long and gray, pulled back into a ponytail. He walks with a gnarled stick which is almost half as long again as he is tall, using it like a walking stick, though he doesn't appear to be putting any weight on it. He looks about the field with one eye of brown and one of milky white, not saying anything.

It seems that we have the makings of a fine group.

"For over a century, I have been called Master Akaas. You may simply call me Akaas," the Halfling says, bowing low to the Dwarf. Rising again to his three-foot height, he surveys the stations and then looks again at the Dwarf with his mismatched eyes. "Direct combat," he says.
To Master Akaas: Gundren smiles brightly at this bold halfling. He then gestures to Sildar. Stepping out of shadows, Sildar draws his longsword moving into open space. Gundren shoots primarily to Sildar, “not to the death my good friend. Only to a clear advantage!”
From behind a tree on the side of the yard, out steps a mountain of man. He is young and lean for his size but clearly an athlete. “I am Ian and I will move that stone for you when it is my turn.”
Akaas follows Sildar into an open portion of the field. The old Halfling places his staff on the ground and performs a few stretches, bending in strange ways for a few seconds, and then picks up the staff and bows to Sildar. "You may begin," he says confidently, taking a defensive position.
A half-orc enters the back of Black Hammer and asks
"Sign says you are looking for someone brave and skilled. Thagakh probably not have much skills but is really brave and strong. I want to join your adventure boss dwarf."
He shows his teeth while smiling confidently and reaches his arm for a handshake.

Started as a player at time of registration. Started to DM a month later. Hoping to get better as time progresses.

OOC: Grandmaster, you have to be careful when editing posts with rolls in them. If you edit anything around the rolls, you can make changes which the forum sees as manipulating the roll. Also, it likely has re-rolled one or both of the rolls you originally posted in #55. Do you remember what they were prior to your edit?
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Akaas closes his eyes against the dust cloud and sidesteps Slidar's noisy attack, the longsword buffeting the air where the Halfling had been a moment before. As the warrior slides by, Akaas twirls his staff around, down and back, aiming for Slidar's back with the butt. He then spins around and kicks out.

Tyrus smiles as he takes off his chain mail and strides confidently to the boulder, crouching and lifting.
OOC: Athletics check?

To Tyrus: yes and consider DC15. You have advantage and add your ability bonus. It will take three attempts for the distance.

Everything you have, or this Ian fellow will make you look like a fool, Tyrus thinks to himself as he lifts.

Sildar kicks debris up at Akaas and moves in with swing of his longsword intending to strike him bluntly in the side.
Attack: 10 Damage: 6
Re-roll because max damage was inappropriate for the type of attack.

The colourful Halfling says "My name is Boghadair" and the dwarf hears in his mind "What's your definition of special abilities?"
OOC: Can anybody point of towards the thread with the colour codes in them?
Seeing that guy called Tyrus was accepted after lifting the boulder three times, Thagakh proceeds to lift it in the hopes of being hired.
Athletics: 20, 20, 19
