suddently, you all see the dragon plushy moving- and it quickly becomes obvious that it's kess who is lifting it, and making the plushie dragon move it's hands "rawr! i'm a evil dragon that came to destroy this place and get all the loot! rawr! hehe" she then chuckles, hugging the plushie "thank you cat! i love it aready!"
Cat giggles "No problems, Kess." she says, while staying away from Drux, "So are you guys going to go on rations for breakfast? Or do you want to pick something up, on the way to the House of Inspired Hands?"
Cat mentally categorizes that Drux is not the social type. "Well, eat up. We'll set out after." She leads them to the place. But makes sure the doors are all locked this time.
"I am fine with having breakfast on our way to that house!It ll be nice to check the gastronomic delights this city has to offer..Oh well whatever the majority decides "
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
the group starts to walk to the house of inspired hands, and in the way they buy some ratins from travelling vendors. (1 gp for each person) and after a few minutes walking, you find the place you where looking for: the house of inspired hands.
The House of Inspired Hands looks like a cross between a temple and a workshop. The symbol of Gond, a toothed cog with four spokes, is displayed prominently. You see the silhouette of a humanoid shape perching on the rooftop. It extends an arm, releasing a tiny metal sparrow into the sky. The bird does a few loops in the air, then veers right toward you. it flies towards drux, trying to hit him Attack: 18 Damage: 4 and (either if it hits or misses) the bird is destroyed, shattering on the ground. the silhouette quicky retreats to the roof, disappearing from sight
"there he is!quickly we must catch him before he gets away!" Piers says urging the others to act. He cats in an instant the same simple spell he did on drux earlier today hoping the scent of a skunk will make it easier to track him(druidscraft and target is the humanoid figure)
Cat looks astonished, An attack from above? She looks at the metal bird, then gathers the remains. "Hurry, get off the street, answers, must be inside." She moves towards the doors.
as the group enters the temple, you are assaulted with loud noises of machinery and inventions. amids the two dozen marble pedestrals, there are many inventions, miniature models, or some other extraordinary creations. Among the displays are several that stand out:
A 4-foot-tall working model of a clock tower rings at the top of every hour. It is made of wood, iron, bronze, and glass, with brass bells and delicate hands formed from solid gold.
A wooden flying machine has wings that flap when it becomes airborne.
A miniature model of a mechanical dragon turtle has a brass plate affixed to its pedestal that reads, “Big Belchy. Sank in Deepwater Harbor on the Day of Wonders in 1363 DR.”
A functional “waking helmet” equipped with small, articulated metal arms and hands that gently slap the wearer if he or she falls asleep.
A miniature model of a red submarine shaped like a manta ray has a brass plate affixed to its pedestal that reads, “The Scarlet Marpenoth. Lantanese submersible. Launched in 1489 DR.”
while walking inside, a priest approaches you. you notice that she is a Bronze Dragonborn with a stern and professional look on her face "Greetings, adventurers- are you here to check on the inventions of our temple? maybe start a funding for some revolutionary project?"
"Work bench if you please." Cat, shows the broken bird wrapped in her cloak, "My friend, was just attacked by this, some figure on your roof released it, just now."
Piers looks with admiration all of those creations..He keeps an open mind knowing that nature itself provides all of those materials "interesting place you have here..Lots of research must have been done to create all those wonders "
Drux had easily side stepped the bird and followed the group into the building.
When hearing the Dragonborn’s question, he responds with a brash, “Funding no, answers yes. One of your damned birds was just launched in our direction and we mean to know why.”
the dragonborn looks at the broken construct, and then gives a long, deep sigh. "I am deeply sorry for this occurrence. You must have seem Nim. he's. . . troublesome, but he certainly didn't want to harm your group. it must have been a malfunction of one of his. . .creations. Please, come with me." she asks, turning around, and you can hear her mumbling "this is the last time i let him free roaming trough the damn place. . ." as she guides the group to a corritor with a spiral staircase in the end. walking up the staircase, you find youself in a small room with an ornate wooden door. there's a small handmate carpet on the ground, as well as a small sign that reads 'Nim's room.' the dragonborn tries to open the door, but no avail. she grunts angrily, and starts to bang on the door "NIM! OPEN THE DOOR THIS INSTANT! HOW MANY TIMES I'VE TOLD YOU TO BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR INVENTIONS?! NIM!!"
Cat follows looking at the room she shrugs. But feels disturbed that a priestess, could get so, angry, she lays a hand on the golds shoulder. "Mam, I inspire to be an artificer, maybe, I could study here?" She brings out her thieves tools "May I? Unless its barred I might be able to get inside." With the memory of their next doors Neighbors words from the fireball incident, she asked. "Who's Nim?"
the woman looks at cat, with her angry demeanor instantly changing to a calmer one "maybe, but you need to prove your worth. there is a small test one must pass in order to partake into our studies- one that only a true artificier could resolve." she sighs, and then retreats from the door "he's a Nimblewright that was given to the temple as a gift. how could we refuse? a living construct that had a life of it's own. it has curiosity, it feels fear. . .as you may guess." she says, pointing to the closed door "and he has started his own inventions while in the temple. Well. . . as long as you don't break down the door, feel free to try anything."
Piers calls out Nim clearing his voice" Nim?May I call you like this?My name is Piers and me and my companions are trying to understand what happened earlier with a fireball incident .Consider us as friends please ..we wish you no harm, or have ill intentions.." (19 persuasion)
"Or you just became a comedian..We can make money actually " Piers says to Drux making a joke ..
He snaps his fingers without seeing anyone (druidscraft) and then a faint odor of skunk comes from Drux
Cat scrunches her nose "Ewe! Who woke up with bad gas? Drux?" she moves across the room

“Ha funny. Anyways Cat, yeah, rations are fine with me. We have a lot to do, no? Sooner we’re on it, sooner we’re ready to smash some baddies.”
Cat mentally categorizes that Drux is not the social type. "Well, eat up. We'll set out after." She leads them to the place. But makes sure the doors are all locked this time.

I suppose the Dragonborn is female.

"Drux, would you please help me with this my friend." She checks the door to see how it opens if its barred

Lore watches with a distant smile, then shrugs at Cat's words. "If it's barred then Kess can probably help."
