Savage Harvest- adventure thread

"I suppose you will just have to whip some sense into those brigands then Loran." Sasha says with a smile. "Don't worry, I was just curious, I haven't ever wielded a weapon myself, well unless you count this." She says, patting the wand tucked into her belt.

(Don't be sorry Jacob, as you said, it is fun :-)

Gerty's eyes open wide as she enters the proprietor's shop. She isn't sure if it is the shop itself or the dwarf in front of her.  This day just keeps getting better and better.  She giggles as she listens to her friends be silly next to her and then speaks up, "Mr. Stormbeard!  It is so nice to meet a fellow dwarf and his amazing shop!" she reaches for his hand to shake it, and if he allows, she grasps it with both hands and pumps it vehemently.  

"Yes, my name is Gerty, and I'm looking for some proper armor, and since you're a dwarf, I'm hoping the probability you have dwarven armor just went up!"  

Loran chuckles a little as he returns his whip to its spot at his hip. "Well, here's hoping no Brigand is lacking any sense." He says eyeing Sasha's wand. "I HAVE been wondering about that. Is that how you made a um... Bidderboo was it? Appear at the table?" He says, trying to remember what he knows about magic.

(When a problem comes around, YOU MUST WHIP IT!)

Aaron does what he can to savor the meal, but his hunger clearly has other plans as he scrapes his plate clean. He leans back now, and pats his stomach, "Ah, much better." He continues to drink wine, while listening to the conversation.

"Yes, I can do all sorts of nifty things with this." Sasha says proudly, taking up the wand again. "I'd better don't do anything more with it in here though." She says, putting it away again "I used it to send the goblins into a slumber for instance, maybe later I can show you some more tricks." She says with a smile.

Magnus joyfully chuckles with delight at “Lord Farquadd” and crew. 
“ Well met, me lord. Nice to see some up and coming adventurers in my shop. Indeed, I have just the kinds of things you are looking for.”

He shakes Gerty’s hands and then bring one up for a kiss. “ My lady Gerty, I think I have a nice selection of armor for your delight. Come follow me into the other room, the main shop is mostly general goods. The good stuff is back here.”

he leads you into a back room filled with all kinds of shiny weapons and armor. It is well lit to show off the gear at its best. The armor pieces are hung neatly along one wall, draped over wooden dummies that approximate a person. There is everything from leathers and chain mail. I particularly nice set of bronze scale mail complete with a fancy gambeson under garment. In the corner is a glorious set of full plate with gold filigree.

all the other walls contain shelves and racks of various fighting implements. Daggers, swords and spears of every shape and size, along with more exotic weapons you have never seen. There is a section filled with archery goods. Shortbows, long bows and even some crossbows and nicely crafted arrows.

“ Take some time and look everything over, see what catches your fancy. I will return in a moments to aid you in your selections.”

at that Magnus heads back into the main shop.

Luke looks around "I think some leather armor for me would do the trick...I could still sneak around, scout quietly for us, climb a tree." Luke pauses and looks at the bows and arrows "Wow look at these! I could really provide us with cover with these uhhhh.. big bow" He says questioningly "Wait a sec are these the bows I have read about in the tales of Rob in the hood? Longbows, I believe they were called. What stories they are about this Rob and how he used a longbow with precision! Maybe I can learn to use it like him" Luke says excitedly before turning to the others "Oh Gert you are going to be unstoppable in that and he has your uhhh you know.....it'll fit!" Luke embarrassingly says to Gert

William thinks for a minute.

Hmm... I think I want something that looks good! Something padded? So enemies don't know I have some protection? And the rapier off course!

As the man kisses Gery's hand she blushes, so not used to that kind of attention.  She happily follows him and her friends to the room in the back and takes it all in.  As Luke gushes over the bows she smiles until he tries to talk about her and some armor, "you mean he has my size?  Ha, you're funny Luke." and she heads over to admire all the different types of armor he has.  She knows she doesn't want to go extravagant.  Honestly, there are more than the 3 of them to share the gold with, and she isn't even sure how this stuff would feel on her.

She starts going through all the different choices, and a set of chain mail that is in a smallish dwarven size catches her eye.  Made of interlocking metal rings, she touches them softly, admiring it with the padding below.  "Hey look at this!  It even includes gauntlets!!  Think it will fit?" she looks like she could burst with excitement.

Luke excitedly “Yes, Yes! See perfect for litt…uh smallish folks. Get whatever we can afford Gert! I mean you’ve got to keep me out of harms way” 

"That sounds pretty useful. Got a spare?" Aaron smirks to Sasha, "Kidding, of course. I wouldn't know the first thing to do with one of those. I'd probably end up breaking it." He chuckles, and sips his wine.

"I think this particular wand was meant for my delicate touch Aaron." Sasha says with a mysterious smile, looking at her wand. "I'm sure we'll find some other use for your rough hands though." She adds, smiling at Aaron, giving his hand a quick squeeze.

Loran leans back in his seat a little, letting out a little sigh as he relaxes. "Well, hopefully Aaron and I wont be having any problems only magic can solve then eh?."

Aaron looks down at his hands, wondering if he has any magic within. “My hands have served me pretty well for the most part. They’ve got me this far, I think I’ll be fine without magic. Though it would be pretty awesome. I’ve heard stories of people throwing fire out of their hands, and even flying. How cool would that be?” 

Gerty elbows Luke in the side, well, probably more the hip, and smiles, "I'll do what I can."  then looking at the pile they are putting together and her smile grows, "This is definitely going to help!  Think Magnus will be coming back soon?  I'd like to go back and show Sasha and Rik, and well honestly, put this beauty on!"

"Oh I imagine he will be back sss....soon, be back soon. Sasha and Rik might be jealous of our equipment and our official-looking adventurer status! I wonder what they are doing? Probably settling back at the tavern for food and drink...I am famished, I could eat a whole pig...ooh pig...I hope they have some ham dinner of some sort, Gosh I haven't had a good ham in ages. OOH! With a little raisin sauce over the top....." Luke rubs his stomach thinking about the ham

"Well I didn't know how to use this until earlier today." Sasha says, admiring her own wand with a small smile. "Perhaps adventure will unlock your inner magical powers as well." She says, looking at Aaron and Loran. "Now, I feel like dancing. Where do you go if you want to dance in this hamlet?"

(DM - is this information Aaron would know of?) 

Hmmm, maybe not padded but studded! We need protection too, Luke!
