The door flings open and a man in a big hat with wings on top of it barges in the room, seemingly on high alert with his crossbow loaded and at the ready, looking around inside the room.
"What in the world is this noise?! Are we getting attacked by a dragon like I was in the play Do Little?!"
His attire would give him the look of a noble if it wasn't so tattered, his semi-long silver hair and his skin dirty, dusty and unkept, like he had been outside for quite a while.
Clank sits with his back to the door about to try and dismantle the screen to see how it works, oblivious at first to the entry of the newcomer as they barge in with crossbow raised due to the ear plugs he had fashioned working particularly well.
As he spots the man in the large winged hat out of the corner of his eye, he gets completely startled, scrambling out of his chair and away from the screen.
"Don't shoot! I wasn't doing anything to it, honestly. Ok, maybe I wanted to see how it works", he says then frowns, not able to hear himself talk. He reaches up and pulls out the ear plugs.
"That's better. Like I said, I wasn't going to break it", he says with his hands raised, looking to Spark and then to Boomi for help. If Boomi hasn't woken, he will move over to him and nudge the dwarf.
Boomi wakes up. And looks around. Sees the newcomer with the weapon at the ready.
He raises his hand and points hus finger at him and puts on a stern dad voice.
"Look here young man. I don't know who ye re but you put it down."
His eyes glow a little and he commands DROP.
Bommi casts Command.
You speak a one-word command to a creature you can see within range. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or follow the command on its next turn. The spell has no effect if the target is undead, if it doesn't understand your language, or if your command is directly harmful to it.

Naru looks at the dwarf and doesn't really feel like putting down his weapon, but something in his head keeps telling him that's the right thing to do, so he puts it down on the table besides him.
" 'I don't know who you are' should be my line. I've been coming here for weeks. Never seen you guys around, who are you?"
"New recruits? Oh-hooh, beautiful! My apologies for the rude entrance, I hadn't heard of your arrival! To be fair, I was in the field, as they say. And when I got here, it sounded like a huge bear had infiltrated our hideout. Like in that play, "The Not So Great Outdoors", ever seen it? I used to play the bear, very convincing if I may say so myself. Difficult to move in the costume though. You'd have a good chance at getting the part with a snore like that, you," he says, pointing at the dwarf. "Beautiful snore, that was. But you'd probably need hep with the movements. I could coach you if you'd like."
He looks at all the new faces in the room. "Yes, yes, beautiful! How about a real quick round of introductions, yes? I'll start: I'm Naru. Naru Silvertongue. You may recognize me from famous Waterdeep extravaganzas such as "Pirates of the Caravans" and "Who Framed Bunny Rabbit", featuring none other than Bunny Rabbit, the famed adult entertainer. The flexibility on that harengon is phenomenal... I've done a thousand and one roles, everything from assistant to the main actor all the way to acting as the post of a fence. Hard one that was. But back to the subject at hand: me. I'm also a great performer and I like to support my allies with my musical bow." Saying that, he shows a relatively long bow with multiple strings; what you would get if a bow and a harp had a baby.
"Who's next?" His eyes are lit with excitement at meeting the new people.
Clank relaxes as Naru drops the crossbow and identifies themselves as a fellow rebel. Beyond that he has't got much of a clue what they are talking about.
"Not much of one for shows, especially those outside Akihi", he replies. "The names Claypole Ankridge, but most folk that know me call me Clank. It's on account of my being an engineer and always tinkering with something I think", he adds with a smile.
"Aye, I've heard of ye. Can't say I've seen ye work.... um ya I'll pass on the acting lessons too old to want to start that venture.
Like I said me name is Boomi Battleborn of clan Ironborn. Use to serve me king as one o his hammers before I took the holy path. Been in this city past 50 years. After the incident I'd figured it time to do something about the decline o things"
Yednen walks into the room, he was in the main part of the store seeing if anything was fresh, "Ah! I've seen you all have met Naru!", "I guess he was running a little late."
"Hey Yednen, where did you get this stuff?", he asks motioning at the screens and walkie talkies. "I thought I was pretty cutting edge when it came to tech, but these are another level".
"Hey Yednen, where did you get this stuff?", he asks motioning at the screens and walkie talkies. "I thought I was pretty cutting edge when it came to tech, but these are another level".
He smiles, "Skumlis has some rich uncle apart of a tech company, he's very experienced, he modified almost everything in this room."
Tredec walks in, "Aren't you an artificer?" He asks, "When I was a child I wanted to be one."
"I'll think on it, something suitable might crop up, and if there are more to arrive then they will likely want to input as well", Clank says.
"If there is nothing else, I think I will rest now", he adds, making to put his ear plugs back in, before making one last request; "Any chance of meeting this rich uncle?".
Naru watches the dwarf fall asleep almost instantly. "I wish I had that skill, that looks useful..." he whispers to no one in particular.
Then he looks at the others: "Alright gang, we should get some shuteye as well. I have my own accomodations right here. We can talk about the plan in the morning, yeah?"

Strength: 7
This spell does not work.
DMing:
Ooc: no issues with that it should have been a DC 12 wis save though not strength. It was more for fun though
((OOC wouldn't I do a Wis save against it? WIS Save: 17 ))
Naru looks at the dwarf and doesn't really feel like putting down his weapon, but something in his head keeps telling him that's the right thing to do, so he puts it down on the table besides him.
" 'I don't know who you are' should be my line. I've been coming here for weeks. Never seen you guys around, who are you?"
"Ah that's much better. We be the new recruits. I'm Boomi Forge Father of Moradin good to meet cha"
Naru's demeanor changes almost instantly.
"New recruits? Oh-hooh, beautiful! My apologies for the rude entrance, I hadn't heard of your arrival! To be fair, I was in the field, as they say.

"Will you be joining us in Everfrost, Naru?"
"Aye, I've heard of ye. Can't say I've seen ye work.... um ya I'll pass on the acting lessons too old to want to start that venture.
Like I said me name is Boomi Battleborn of clan Ironborn. Use to serve me king as one o his hammers before I took the holy path. Been in this city past 50 years. After the incident I'd figured it time to do something about the decline o things"
Yednen walks into the room, he was in the main part of the store seeing if anything was fresh, "Ah! I've seen you all have met Naru!", "I guess he was running a little late."
DMing:
"Yeah, we met", Clank replies to Yednen.
"Hey Yednen, where did you get this stuff?", he asks motioning at the screens and walkie talkies. "I thought I was pretty cutting edge when it came to tech, but these are another level".
He smiles, "Skumlis has some rich uncle apart of a tech company, he's very experienced, he modified almost everything in this room."
Tredec walks in, "Aren't you an artificer?" He asks, "When I was a child I wanted to be one."
DMing:
Naru smiles at Clank.
"Yes, I'm part of your group! I think Yednen is supposed to be here any minute now to fill us in on the details?"
As he says that, the door opens to let Yednen in. Naru stays on the side, half sitting half leaning on a table, while everyone gathers 'round.
“I guess with your acting experience, blending in will be easy for you”, Clank says to Naru.
When Tredec asks if he is an artificer, he replies, “Indeed I am an artificer. Or techno wizard as Boomi would say”.
”So is this the whole team now? Do we have a team name, or code name or some such?”.
Tredec chuckles, "I'm not good at naming stuff, if you want one you can discuss it."
DMing:
"I'll think on it, something suitable might crop up, and if there are more to arrive then they will likely want to input as well", Clank says.
"If there is nothing else, I think I will rest now", he adds, making to put his ear plugs back in, before making one last request; "Any chance of meeting this rich uncle?".
Boomi will go back to sleep and once again start snoring right away.
Snore loadness: 4
