Crimson Sands of Time

You just hear Sam start to whistle as he cast toll of the dead on the one ched just attack Wis save of 16 or take 9 necrotic 

Quote from Legion4 >>

Sam looks to find the rabbit man and thinks if he would taste nice as he has hunted rabbit in Chult before “hello their mr rabbit they bothering you”

Oli replies, "Not unless they get away with my stuff, then I'd be bothered." Then he runs at the guy that is holding his rapier and makes two attacks:

main attack: 23  Damage: 6  (if the first roll misses I will use a psionic energy die to try and hit (added to attack roll): 3)

psychic blades bonus attack: 11  Damage: 2

"Told you I'd kill you if you didn't put it down." Oli says to the wanabe thief.

With the scoundrels summarily thwarted, the gang surveys the scene, collecting some of the dropped goods they had upon them, relieving them of their I'll gotten gains

"Nothin' like cleaning up the trash to make you feel at home, right? Names Oli. Thanks for the help." Oli picks up his rapier and wipes it on the shirt of the one that took it, then sheaths it. He then gathers the rest of his stuff and dons his leather armor. He then asks, "You lot looking for a scout or lock pick to join your group? I've been looking for a group to join since I got to Thay three days ago, but none have felt right til now. I was sizing this lot up to see if they were worth the trouble, but all they saw was money and thought they could rob me. Didn't recognize talent til it was killing them. Their skills were WAY lower than I gave them credit for."

“We’re definitely looking for a guide, scout, and all of that.  We’d like to avoid,, well,  Any Thayan government entanglements, and we’re not exactly the stealthy sort.  

We’d like the company- and you clearly have useful skills.   As I was saying,  I’m Tetrevess Tomescribe, although I’ve been going by Tetrevess the Traveler lately.    We may not look it, but We’re an accomplished group-  we saved Mulmaster from disaster a while back, recently did some things up in the Icewind dale area. We  found a lost city.   Too many adventures to note or keep track of.  

We’re a bit behind the scenes usually-  I don’t think we get much credit.  We usually end up getting blamed for things we didn’t do while others get credit for what we did.

Anyway right now we’re on a bit of a dangerous- and some might say crazy- mission- and you are welcome to join for part or all of it, I always heard your kind were good luck to have around.

let’s divide up this treasure and see if they’ve got any items worth having.  I really need a mask or some makeup for my companion here“   

(Gesturing towards the monk-robed humanoid).
he smiles, a bit like a schoolboy, his eyes twinkling.  

"Perhaps a stylized hood, as part of a uniform or something of that sort."

"If all else fails, give him a staff and pretend he's your apprentice. Wizards come in all shapes and sizes."

Also a chain shirt and a greater healing potion. Everything else they carry is poorly crafted and worse upkeep.  The shoddy clothes they wear fir right in for this area, though, so an industrious person might readily disguise their blue hewed companion, for instance.

They do have a few wands and magucal foci of little value. But the accessories could certainly help sell a disguise.

Samogri smells something in the air.  It's the unmistakable scent of lizardfolk. He soon finds multiple tracks suggesting a few yave been theough here recently. Do you follow them?

Tetrevess divides up the gold- “ let’s see- Angus, Sam, Chadderly myself and Oli.   5 of us-  140 gold each and the remainder to Oli? So 147 gold and 5 silver to you Oli, if that’s okay?   We kind of divide things haphazardly.  If you need more gold for something, just ask.  

Now- this potion of greater healing might come in handy,  I’m suggesting my Magen carry it.   He can fly, and get to any of us and administer a potion if one of us goes down.  His Name is Fulminos.  He can’t speak but he understands the languages I do. Bit of an experiment- that one.  First Magen created in a thousand years or something.   Shoots lightning.  Might be useful.  “

Tetrevess sorts through the gear and clothes and improves on the Magen’s disguise,  putting a cloak on him and giving him a wand for his belt, a basic dagger, and a belt pouch to keep potions in.   

“Where to?” Tet says, looking at the group.

Make perception check.

"That's really kind of you. I do appreciate it. Can always find a use for coin. Being what I am, I also usually avoid any type of government officials and working behind the scenes is what I prefer, but in these parts I am no guide. But when there is no guide, then scouting is what you use, and I can do that. In my line of work, what most feel is a bad reputation, is often a good reputation. As for my kind being lucky, well I've not heard that before."

He looks through his bag and says, "Well, this answers your question about luck; I didn't bring my disguise kit. But if you want help I will try to make due with what we have."

Noticing Sam sniffing the air, Oli takes a good look around.

Perception: 32 in log in case you wanted one from all of us.

Primal awareness I’ll burn a 1st level spell slot 

“that smells like lizardfolk, let’s see” 

"Guys, I'd rather ambush these Lizardfolk or whatever they are than have then sneak up on us if that's at all possible? Maybe should follow the tracks and get the jump on them?"

Chadderlay summons his cat familiar, Mister Fancy, a black and white tuxedo pattern cat and sends it on ahead to scout.

Mister Fany's Perception: 22 

Tetrevess says “well, we can ambush them.. or recruit them.  Sam may be able to help with negotiations.  But let’s move in their direction anyway., right Sam?”

"Could these be distant kin to you Sam? Cousins down thru the ages? I meant no disrespect to your people."

Chadderlay wonders how much he himself may be judged by the color of his wizard's robes.

"I'll try to stay hidden and if it becomes a fight maybe I can get a surprise shot in. Or would you prefer I follow the cat to see what's ahead?" Oli says as he pulls out his hand crossbow.

"It's hard to tell sometimes what kind of folk Zulkir will employ as their henchmen. Lizardfolk would not be the strangest thing so everyone be on guard."

Chadderlay will share his senses with his cat so that he can see what lies ahead.
