"Potions of healing, you say? Oh so cassually. How much for your scorpian antidote and potions of healing?" he mocks. "It's like you're demanding an every day thing! Like bacon, with your steak! Do you KNOW how hard it is to create these antidotes? The scorpian venom- I had to physically CATCH the bloody thing before figuring out how to extract it's toxin without killing it... Oh, OH! And then there's the trial process! Oh yes, to see if it works! That took MONTHS! MONTHS of setting up scorpian ambushes for passes by and coming to their rescue... (mainly not...) Until I got it right, that is... Oh yes, yes, this is a very fine art indeed. So, 'how much' you ask? heh..heheh... HEHEHEH How's about 50 gp a PIECE! How's that sound, eh?"
OOC: By the way, what potions did I buy? I’ll deduct 25gp from my inventory, but need know what potions I should add to my equipment list.
OOC: potion of healing (medium) and just note down "scorpion antidote". It'll remove the poisoned condition if stung by a spikey Boi, otherwise it has a 70% chance of curing the poisoned condition from other venom.
A very old, tribal man reveals himself from some shadows nearby.
”If you are travellers through these woods, you would not be here. You’re here for something- or someone specific, aren’t you? I am a guardian of these woods. Only death awaits those who do not come here with a purpose. So I ask again- why do you venture to this place?”
“Yeah, yeah, death. Been there, done that. Yes, we are looking for someone. He might be with others, i’m not sure. Did you see anyone walk this way?” Crispy asked.
He ponders for a moment. “This wood is infested with arachnids, as I am sure you are aware. During your travels in this place, I would appreciate if you... culled a number of them. We struck a truce with their leader and now they overun our forest. It would look bad if we were to handle our little overpopulation problem, but if you were able to help us, then I could organise some possible aid for your travels here.”
"That's fair." Danica replied. "So, is there a community here then? I am Danica Galefist, a child of the Citadel. Once we are done, I would be glad to meet those who would stand with the Green."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Glancing at her party then back at the old man "How many is 'a number of them'? Also wouldn't helping us find this other group off the start help you as well, that way we can 'cull' while we travel."
Yasei: “One meets his destiny often in the road he takes to avoid it. I accept your offer, on one term. Please describe the manner of beast that has traipsed through these woods and left this strange moss clinging to branches on the side of the trail.”
"Pleased to meet your acquaintance." He says with a slow nod. "There are more of my people here- if you know where to look." He looks slowly at Rosli "As many as you can .."
He takes a moment to consider Yasei's question. He touches a tree and leans on it for a while in silence. You can hear him making old man noises like grunting and sighing before he turns back to you, his eyes glowing green slightly
"The forest tells me you're being watched by not one, but many. The creature you seek however seems lost and looking for a new home."
He pulls out five little discs, wrapped in leaves and opens one up to reveal like a disc made from some mushy substance like banana. "If you encounter a venomous bite, place this on the wound."
He says "I wish you well on your journey. We will not interfere more than we already have." Then simply walks behind a tree, vanishing, as if he melded in to the tree itself.
It's a strange wood. There are no sounds of bugs buzzing or crickets chirping. A few bird noises and hoots from an owl and you're all suddenly standing in a silent clearing.

|••• Somewhere in a dark, untouched cave, we see a figure, hunched over a natural stone pedistool with a glowing, crystal orb sitting upon it.
"Wh-where is they now, master?" A slimey, crackly voice echoes.
Aerik: "Ever since they slipped that damn bracelet over her wrist this thing has been skipping in and out!" He says angrily, slapping the flickering ball and almost sending it toppling off the pedistool. "HERE! ... Here. I see forest. Dark forest... And webs. Bound bodies, meals waiting to be had." He looks up at a shadowy figure dressed in black robes. "The dagger. She's gone for the dagger." The shadowy figure nods silently and rushes out of the cave. Aerik returns to his crystal ball, staring in to it intently... •••|
Rosli. It seems as though he .. walked through the tree to somewhere. As if he melded into the tree.
As Rosli darts around the tree, she spots a circular opening in a rock face about 200m away. A large opening has been burrowed into the rock and the sides are bound in layers and layers of woven web. Peering inside, you see the beginning of what appears to be an intricate tunnel system of webbed shafts. The spider's hollow.

Looking at the old man dressed awkwardly "Like I said we're a group of people trying to stop bad people, it there any way you can help us?"
"I sense a presence here, which does not belong... However I am unsure of what it is." He says, cryptically.

“I bet you do.“ Crispy said, wearily. “That’s probably me, or..the person we’re looking for. Can you help us, or not?”
He ponders for a moment. “This wood is infested with arachnids, as I am sure you are aware. During your travels in this place, I would appreciate if you... culled a number of them.

Crispy sighed. It was amazing how nothing, no one, ever did anything for free. Including her.

Rosli will also run over to the tree where the man disappeared.

Pointing to the web laced hole "Uhhh guys I think I found the spiders."
"Good job." Crispy said, getting up. "Lets get this over with."
