"Nope!"says the tabaxi very matter of factly as he cleans his nails with a dagger. "Mr Jacob, Deee-arg here still doesn't understand why this Tobias is famous for having broken out of the tower, yet returns to it nightly. Can you explain it to him?" Jasper winks at Dearg mischievously, but Dearg has probably figured out by now that he's just playing around. The tabaxi probably doesn't seem particularly mean or sinister. "Also, Mr Jacob, what's the deal with this 'Boring' guy we met yesterday, eh?"
"If we start early we might even make sure he comes from the tower to start with, but yes that looks to be our best plan so far. Be sure to keep a look out for Mord while we're out though, luck hasn't been favoring us and I don't expect that to change much."
Dearg will cautiously eat the food brought to him, taking small bites at first to assess if it has any strange flavors.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Good thinking Deee-arg. I like it. You're almost as smart as me! I'll watch your back for Morty while you watch for Toby, yes?"
"Jacob, do you know if Morty usually works alone or has a band of thugs with him to surround us and all of that?"

OOC . Want to roll Insight on Jacob during this conversation. Not sure if I did earlier in the bar or not, but I don't believe so. He seems very eager to help and, while he has given some reason saying he'd like the old Tobias back, it is still a little suspicious.
OOC So far I'm not hiding anything. As annoying as Jasper is, I know the value of a skilled companion regardless of personal feelings. Great RPing btw Hex
OOC Haha, thanks. I was hoping he wasn't annoying you as a player too much. I figure he won't always be this way, as he may be more serious when the stakes are higher in the moment or he may start to really like Dearg and get board with teasing him, finding new ways to entertain himself.
My favorite part was still when Dearg didn't react to his teasing right away and 'waited until Jasper started to fidget' or whatever it was you said. That was a perfect way to turn the tables on this guy's BS.
2 things, 1. How did Hex's insight check do against Jacob? 2. We were going to rest and then be at the tower about an hour before Tobias normally comes to see if he is leaving from the tower.
Still here, just curious about the answers to your two questions (one concerning my insight roll) above, especially since one concerns where we are currently with following Tobias and all of that.
"That is an excellent train of thought. Jasper do you have any better ideas?"
"Nope!" says the tabaxi very matter of factly as he cleans his nails with a dagger.

"Also, Mr Jacob, what's the deal with this 'Boring' guy we met yesterday, eh?"
"See, I told you Borand was not really Morty, Deee-arg. Maybe don't be so paranoid, eh?" The tabaxi snickers to himself quietly, or mostly quietly.
"Ok, ok, so tonight we following Toby back to this tower place?"
"If we start early we might even make sure he comes from the tower to start with, but yes that looks to be our best plan so far. Be sure to keep a look out for Mord while we're out though, luck hasn't been favoring us and I don't expect that to change much."

OOC Meant for the roll to be if Jacob is lying or hiding anything since he's being so overly helpful.

Dan and Hex,
Are we still doing this or has this campaign gotten disbanded due to real life?
Still here, just curious about the answers to your two questions (one concerning my insight roll) above, especially since one concerns where we are currently with following Tobias and all of that.
Take your time man, real life takes precedence. Feel better and we'll still be around whenever you get back.
No rush man, take care of yourself! I'll stick around, too. Will trade patience for a reminder of plot details when I forget them later! ;)
