A-Ah, yeah my clothes... I'm not sure we can take a detour, but if my 'scent' causes us any issues, I'm more than willing to take the brunt of the attack, while you all fight from safety. Fair? A little chuckle from the human, as he realizes that's technically an inside joke. Drawing his sword, he nooks it in his arm, and begins cleaning it, clearly ready to move at a moments notice, but needing to keep the blade oiled as well. He had done his morning exercises, given everyone a pep talk, and was glad the other party had saved some people, and glad, now, after those other words of encouragement sunk in that even though he fell, he fell for someone elses sake, intentionally or not.And hey, thanks again . You helped me realize part of somehting I had forgotten. No hero is invincible, they have trials, and they fall. But they get back up. And every hero starts somewhere. Flashing a bright smile at the one who had said it.
You head on, and arrive at Maplebrook without any more trouble after 3 more days (Angorn is able to provide food for himself and 5 others of his choice so some people need to mark of rations, there are 5 of you, Louisa, Marcus and the 3 rescued people)
Arriving in Maplebrook, Louisa informs you that the following day is a market where she will be selling her wares before heading on. Due to the local militia your services are not needed for now so you have free reign until after the market.
(I will have proper notes on Maplebrook when I get back from holiday tomorrow as they are on my laptop. If there is anywhere you wish to go I have a basic knowledge of the place as it is where my irl campaign on Karamore started)
Zack will attempt to head to the local Inns, taverns and other similar gathering places and begin to collect intel on topics such as: Rumors around town, whether they be for the town itself, or nearby. If the town had heard of any raiders/caravan attacks/cultists and other similar things.
Persuasion: 24
Perception to hear rumors going on when hes not actively engaged: 4
if I need anythign else, roll for me, but i can't think of anything.
When nighttime hits, Zack will try to find an inn and bathe/recover his wounds fully.
(3 more days is 4 days of rations. I think I covered rations for the first day for those who stayed already though, and Angorn provided for those who left if they were willing to eat scavenged food)
Zack, Maplebrook is a small place technically a large village more than a town. There is one inn (whose name I will let you know when I get my notes). Talking to people you hear a lot of people talking about the market the next day, no one seems to be aware of any caravans or traders who haven't made it that usually do. They did have some trouble almost a year ago with some goblins but that has been sorted. Most of the goblins were friendly and have been on good terms (as seen by the fact that there is a goblin who works in the kitchen) but a band of nasty goblins led by a hobgoblin and some bugbears came and took over the tribe. Louisa happend to come through with adventurers who dealt with it and it has been peaceful ever since.
When they arrive at the town Venny say "I'll go looking for a short job then, offering my services as a scribe to the local public buildings or the marked tomorrow. So I'll see you guys then.". She will of course spend some time in the tavern. Waiting for some info on this town :)
Angorn, you take the cultist to the Militia, they are used to dealing with petty theft inside the village but not used to big crimes. They do however lock her up in the small jail and send a letter by bird to the capital asking what to do with her.
Venny, you look around the place, no one is looking for a scribe. You do get a look around. It is mostly houses, there is a few farms, a blacksmith, a small general store, the tavern and tucked down a side street a shop called Zook's Magical Wares.
(Henricook and Kra-osh, do you do anything before the market?)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Zack, seeing that there as little to be heard around this sleepy town, and most of what needed doing, had already been done, as far as he had found out. Having walked through the town to various places, and at some point, having seen a blacksmith, Zack makes his way there, an idea brewing in his mind.
Once there, Zack would attempt to meet whoever the head smithy was or if they weren't available, the highest of rank, attempting to make a deal. If he meets anyone, he will say/do the following.
Hi, My names Zack. Zack Fair! I come from the more militaristic side of the Island, near Westhaven. This may sound silly, but I'm wanting to become a hero, not by chance, but by choice. It's been a dream of mine for a long time. And you see this? he says, Hefting his massive blade out in a non-threatening way I wanna get this thing silvered in case I come up against something special, y'know? And uh... I'm not asking for it for free. I'll help you around the forge a bit, make a few weapons in exchange, since I lack the coin for such a purchase at this time, since I'm just starting out, more or less.
Aaaand, just think. If I do succeed YOU will be one of the people who helped me along the way. And I won't forget that. I'll make sure everyone knows you helped me become what I do. I'm sure my help now, and my word in the future is enough to silver a single blade, yeah? (Persuasion: 18)
(OOC - Not sure how you would want me to roll for 'crafting blades' or whatever for the forge if this convinces them)
(I didn't see any notification for this thread. Oops)
Zack: there are two people working at the blacksmith, the Smith and his apprentice. The Smith is a dwarven fellow, quite old and a human apprentice. "What, another one of ye westhaven lot? At least ye aint trying t' hire me fer work over there, though unlike t' last one who came through, ye aint a noble so ye have some common sense. Unfortunately if ye are after silver, ye need somewhere bigger than this village. I don't make enough to afford it selling farming wares with only t' occasional weapon."
Kra-osh, you walk in and an excited gnome meets you. " Hello there fine chap, what do you need today? I have wonderful magic items and can help with almost anything you need. You give me what you want and I tell you if I have it"
Venny will stay at her room and heal up, don't have much money to shop for yet so there's nothing but waiting for the caravan to move on. (ooc; I'll take a couple of days off from playing this week.)
Zack would look at the smithy and smile. That's fine man. Trust me.. I know the feeling. I may have grown up there, but... Zack begins to say, leaning in conspiratorially I'm actually one of the people who grew up on a farm there, y'know? so my life wasn't the grandest. I can understand what you mean. So, how about I help you at the forge anyway? he would ask, sincerely willing to assist the man for that day, even with no reward.
He is glad for the help. You aren't proficient in smiths tools so you aren't able to do much by yourself but you are able to do some of the heavy lifting while he makes bits, and your knowledge of farming means you are able to do simple repairs of small farming equipment. He pays you 1gp for the days work.

Angorn looks at the party and seems like everyone is ready. He walks to Louisa and says Your escort is ready if you are ma'am.
You head on, and arrive at Maplebrook without any more trouble after 3 more days (Angorn is able to provide food for himself and 5 others of his choice so some people need to mark of rations, there are 5 of you, Louisa, Marcus and the 3 rescued people)

Angorn will escort the cultist to the local authorities. (would that be militia or do they have a sherif or something)
When they arrive at the town Venny say "I'll go looking for a short job then, offering my services as a scribe to the local public buildings or the marked tomorrow. So I'll see you guys then.". She will of course spend some time in the tavern. Waiting for some info on this town :)

Tavern is called the Dented Mug.
