"No, we were not. And judging by the state of things, I wouldn't be surprised if one of the local urchins have been taking refuge here." Idoza added on quietly, least she be shushed as well. "I leave them to you to speak to, but do be wary with them. They tend to be far cleverer than most give them credit." The cleric than begun taking off her bracers and rolling up her sleeves. "I'm gonna get started cleaning up the taproom in the meantime."

Drux follows suit with Cat (OOC haven’t had time to switch yet, hope to this morning).

Perception 23 

Stealth 20 

In thieves cant, Drux says, “A doll making the sounds? Or did we miss someone coming down here? Dare we touch it?”

Investigation (no touching just inspecting) 4 

(OOC I DID NOT lol it was originally a 13 and 12 I think...investigation is a new roll edited in after I saw the dm post, but feel free to reroll if ya want to dm)

Answering back the same "It's a kids toy, much loved." Throwing caution to the wind, she gently picks it up not wanting to break it wondering how it got here.

Cat "Odd strange thing to say." she says just to see what happens "I guess I could be a wicked child in away." she says as she sets it on the barrel.

Piers shifts a bit, nervously looking from side to side. "I'm... good. Definitely good. No wickedness here, no siree."

Drux says, “Depends on who defines what is wicked. It’s a very broad definition.”

Cat examines the doll trying to think of an answer for such a thing 13 Arcana 

The human druid gulps. "Me neither."

With a look to the others, he offers to take the doll. "Guess I'll watch it, keep it in the pocket as I work. We should start cleaning up the place and tell Volo of our decision."

Cat has seen allot in her short life she moves it away from Piers "I'm keeping it for study. Lets, just put it on the bar. I think we'll start laughing after awhile at it." 

She smiles "Or we could just leave it down here."

Cathern looks around now that she's here(I guess the basement) while holding the doll 11 Investigation

“Sure.” Piers watches as the doll is set down and finds Volo. “All in all a pretty decent place. Thank you.” 

He returns to help the others clean up a bit, and peeks outside to see what the neighbors might be like.

“So what do ya think we should do with this kinda place? Just a home base for us, or utilize it for some type of profit making?” Drux asks the group. It has great potential for both I imagine.

It's likely around that point that Idoza, having spent the past few minutes or so looking over the chairs int he tap room and compiling those that should be trashed, pauses long enough in her work to head over to the Ale Cellar. Although she only goes as far as the door itself before opening it up if need be and shouting down, "You find our squatter yet? And how bad are things down there?" 

Cat tries to retrieve the last wine bottle "It's just a talking Doll.. The cellar looks pretty much like upstairs Idoza. Though it stinks I think we need a plumber." she says realizing that she just made a commitment to this place.

She says to Drux "It was a bar.."

"There's a plumbers and cellarer's guild; I'd advise talking to them so we can get the place fixed up. Not to mention all the other guilds that we'll need to reach out to."
