A Wizard of Thay, Harric replies, seeming impressed. A fearsome foe. And you, Dekhan, took the final blow? Remarkable. It's clear he approves of you, and so his sycophants also nod and smile and laugh at everything you say, following his lead. So tell me now, that we have exchanged tales, what is your business in Waterdeep? Have you come to sell the treasures you have found? Or seeking employment? You're not alone - the red-haired fellow and the one with the tattoos, they are also with you, no? He waves a hand in the direction of the table where Varinth still sits alone, though Incantis is now seated with another group.
Dekhan pats the hilt at his hip Talon here took the final blow, I was just swinging her he laughs good naturedly. Yes, those are our companions Inky and Vaz, mighty warriors as well. Harric, we seek fortune and glory in the city of splendors. You seem to have the way of things here, surely you can point us in the right direction as far as adventure is concerned.
Oh, I don't know, Harric says dismissively. You could go to the Yawning Portal and jump down their hole into that mad maze, or whatever. I don't really concern myself with such things. He huffs, and is suddenly and very noisily bored. Well, things to do, you know. He stands, and the others all jump up at the same time. Come, Jenter! Olek! Let's find ourselves somewhere even filthier. The group heads out, with Lucia eyeing you as she follows.
Strix, you are beginning to feel that there is little more to be learned from observing horses or camels, at least for tonight. Soodi and Luskain appear to be ignoring each other but standing fairly close by. Make a [skill]Perception[/skill check.
Incantis, as the young nobleman and his retinue leave, one of his followers bumps Vinna's chair, almost making her spill her drink. He turns, looks at her, laughs, and walks on without another word, following Harris outside the tavern.
Incantis gestures to the barkeep and orders four meads. "Kent, do they wear anything in particular? So I can watch out for them; if they're as showy as you say..."As Vinna almost spills her drink Incantis stops himself just in the nick of time from reflexively righting the glass with mage handNot here Incantis!"Who was that uh..." he struggles for the proper term in abovecommon and trails off, pointing at the man's backside.

Oi! If'n its filth ye want to look down upon...come back here in two bells and sees what happens when we get...piratical. Fortune is all well and good but I'm guessing you'd prefer the company o' lowlife's where ye can buy a proper assassin. Hahaha! Good luck on that yer lordship. They're not likely te just give ye a card o' introduction. But listen to the songs yer lordedness. Most is true. Tell em ol' Scupper sent ye! Haha!
Dekhan watches Harric leave and says loudly enough to hear to Scupper I suppose I was wrong, Scup, just another pampered fop who thinks he’s slumming. Well have to find someone legitimately dangerous for our purposes.
Incantis, Vinna waits until Harric's group have left. That's the Divlyane kid. Drowning his sorrows, no doubt. Word is that there's trouble with the Divlaynes.
Kent nods. I had it from Fommer, who delivers their meat. They ordered for some huge party next week, then cancelled, then came back and ordered double. Weird. But hey, they're nobles, what do you expect?
Scupper and Dekhan, Lucia looks back at you and gives you a look, but follows Harric outside.
Strix, you don't notice anything in particular. The square remains busy and lively, as the night is getting on.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Flashes illuminate the night sky, balls of flame explode, meteors race overhead, as Varinth's performance light up this part of the Dock Ward. The tavern patrons stop their chatters, even the brawlers mostly pause and enjoy the display before them. And then they go right back to pummelling each other senseless of course. The square is packed with people, and the unexpected display draws cheers and applause. Strix, from your perch you see the various pickpockets of the Ward going about their business - it will be a profitable few minutes for them, without doubt. Varinth, as you reach the final climax and the sky seems to turn the fiery red of the infernal planes, you bask in the attention and feel certain that Varinth Tannerman has announced his arrival in Waterdeep.
At the end, a few of the drunker or richer patrons offer you a small payment, and you make a total of 32 silver pieces. You are certain you could have got more, had the others collected payments on your behalf, and you file this thought away for the future.
As the performance closes, the square returns to normal. In the Dock Ward, the night is still young - you can continue to explore, or head to bed, as you like.
Dekhan will relate his experience with the Divlayne coterie to the others and see if there’s anything else to know about them as the interaction left him feeling somewhat like there’s more than meets the eye to the situation.
When the magnificent show is over, Incantis thanks the three locals and rejoins with his group."You never cease to pleasantly surprise me Vaz."When Dekhan mentions Divlyane he perks up. "The three I was talking to mentioned him. His family, more. Down on their luck supposedly but there's this: they were going to throw a party, then cancelled on the caterers and came back to order double. And..."the half-elf switches to telepathy to anyone who's there. "Bandit mages are apparently burning people in the streets. Sound familiar?"

Varinth is making tiny little goblins made of fire jump into his tankard. He seems quite content. He nibbles on another cheese.

Don'tcha worry Dek. I'm guessing that's not the last we've seen of his lordli-nes-ship. We're likely te be pulling his arse out o' the fire, yet.
Incantis, Vinna waits until Harric's group have left. That's the Divlyane kid. Drowning his sorrows, no doubt. Word is that there's trouble with the Divlaynes.

Vaz, getting a little bored, announces to the room;
WHo'S uP fOr soMe FIREWORKS!!
and stumbles out the doors into the square. Using a combination of Prestidigitation and Control Flames tries to put on a show.
Varinth, make a Performance check. With advantage - is anyone going to help? Or possibly mitigate?
Performance: 4
Oh My Giddy Aunt!
Incantis begins to reply to Kent's comment about expectations of nobles as his own noble friend begins his amazing fireworks show.

I'll step out te be ready in case Vaz needs to be put out.
Ollie! More. Rot. Gut!
Dekhan will step out to enjoy the performance as well.

Wern't mE?! Varinth says to Inky incredulously. He then lets his brain kick in a bit. Oh right hehe
