Nadarr sheathes his sword and grasps his brother. “Suitable flair, as always, Mehen. It certainly is good to see you again, although I wish it could be under more pleasant circumstances. What happened here, and what was that... thing?”
[Thardigord/Nadarr] Once the creature falls a loud roaring cheer rises from the crowd that almost drowns out what is being said. Kriv starts to issue orders for the guards to break up the crowd now that the threat has been dealt with and the cheers die down as everyone starts to disperse. "That shouldn't be necessary, it looked like that last stab was fatal." Mehen says to Thardigord. "I'm not sure myself. My group and I were patrolling just outside the market when we all heard screaming and rushed over here to find this thing just outside the temple attacking civilians. Lucky Corporal Kriv was nearby with a bunch of trainees and a few others to get the people away before there were more casualties. I'm not sure what this thing is, but it doesn't look natural." Mehen says.
[Mattias] As Mattias is on his way to the market square, he hears the sound of a loud cheer go up from what he guesses is the market. As he starts to get closer, he notices some people talking among themselves and looking in the direction of the market. Passing by a few of those talking, he picks up the words 'creature', 'thing', and 'attacked.'
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Nadarr acknowledges his brother and then bends down to get a closer look at the slain creature. He rummages through its pockets and then sits back, studying the features closely, trying to determine exactly what assaulted the townsfolk.
Hearing the cheering Mattias quickens his step, anxious to discover what could cause it. Maybe some children's game, maybe some entertainers within the square?
Seeing the crowd, he starts to walk towards it, gently easing others from his path as the crowds get denser. Picking up on the utterances from the others in the crowd he starts to push his way to the front, spying the group of guards around a large formless creature as he gets there.
Filled with a grim fascination, and eager to take news of this...thing back to the Rough Riders, Mattias stays put, trying to absorb as much as he can.
[Nadarr] As Nadarr investigates the body, he gets a better look at the creature and notices that the face is that of a human male with small patches of transparent blue scales and pointed teeth. His limbs remain coated in those same transparent blue scales with the clawed hands and his tattered robes are a dirt brown color. The only noticeable feature is what remains of a patch that has the head of a blue dragon facing down and a small bit of green below the head. Unfortunately, the robes do not contain any pockets but he does find a small bag tied to a rope belt that has five silver and six copper pieces inside. Through his examination, Nadarr does discover that the creature isn't completely dead; there is a faint trace of breathing, but it is teetering on the edge. Even with the extensive inspection, Nadarr can't seem to figure out what this creature might even come close to being, but it does not appear to be something natural.
[Mattias] Standing at the edge of the crowd Mattias can see the line of guards keeping the civilians back, but it appears that not very many people want to get closer to this thing. He also sees two guards standing with Thardigord and all of them have their weapons drawn. Nadarr is sitting on the ground next to the creature intently staring at it and on occasion moving bits of cloth that appears to be part of a robe. It is difficult to see the creature from his position as the two guards are trying to keep it out of view the best they can, but he does see two individuals walking out from the temple, both wearing blue robes with silver trim and one is carrying a large folded cloth in their arms.
[Tarkin/Umuni] A few minutes after the other three companions left to run their errands, Theo walks into his office and motions for the senor members to follow him. Once they have all entered the office, the main room goes quiet with only the sound of mugs being shuffled around and cleaned, and muffled voices fill the air.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Spotting both the robed figures and his fellow Rough Riders, his attention is divide between them. He is anxious to know if Thardigord and Nadaar are unhurt, and if he catches the eye of either of them will motion his head towards them, see if they need him to approach.
Mattias, never really being one for schooling, tries to remember anything he can about the blue robed figures.
"Huh?"Umuni was checking her pouch with the money she had just received, when tarking interrupted her. "What they're talking about? Probably a mission, just like ours, not like it's none of our business..."Umuni shrugs, places the pouch back in its place and stands up, looking towards the front door.
Tarkin stands and calls after Umuni "Where are are you going?" Tarkin gathers his gear "Wherever you are going, I am going too. We need to regroup with the rest of the team"

"Me? I don't yet know where I am going, I was thinking about exploring the town, seeing if I discover something new... I didn't spend a whole lot of time around here..." Umuni is now making sure she has packed all of her gear, and she's looking toward the door, just waiting for Tarkin before leaving.
[Mattias] Judging by the coloration of their robes and the temple they just have walked out of; Mattias can make the safe guess that they are part of the clergy to Bahamut. It doesn't appear that Nadarr and Thardigord have been injured. As the fight is now over, Mattias will start to notice that the crowd is beginning to thin out; making moving around much easier. However, the guards are still alert and keeping people from crossing the line. Mattias will notice a dragonborn in guard armor walk over to the group around the creature and address them.
[Tarkin/Umuni] (OOC: Any particular place either of you are trying to find or are you just going to meander about and see what catches your eye?)
[Nadarr/Thardigord] Nadarr leans in to try and stabilize the creature but the grotesque for and it's unknown nature make it difficult to figure of just how to stabilize it. As Nadarr is messing around with this creature, Thardigord sees the blue robed figures approach from the temple; one of them holding a large folded cloth in their arms. Both Nadarr and Thardigord hear heavy foot falls walk up to them and a voice call out, "Not bad for two guards, a drop out and a random civilian."
Nadarr finally sits back, convinced that the creature is beyond his help. He stands to look around at the voice, and as he does he sees the priests of Bahamut and bows respectfully before continuing to turn to the figure behind him. Do I recognize him?
Mattias continues to wait, but with the crowd dispersing, he moves with them. He stops at the edge of the square, close to whichever street would lead back to their headquarters and keeps a watchful eye on Nadaar and Thardigord.
Should he catch the eye of either of them, he will give a slight nod of acknowledgement then turn down the street back to Rough Riders HQ hopefully signalling his destination.
(OOC: Answering the DM's question, Umuni's plan was the latter, to walk around without any real destination in mind, but if Tarkin has any ideas, she'd be following him for sure.)
(OOC: ... Did I need to mention that Hybrid's idea will work for me? As I said, Umuni would be following Tarkin, whatever the plan he had as a location to where they should go, going in the direction Matthias went sounds like a good idea.)
Tarkin and Umuni are walking down the street away from HQ. "I wonder when the others will be back? They might be somewhere in the market." Tarkin stops "Did you hear that? It sounded like Matthias."

[Nadarr/Thardigord] Nadarr recognizes the voice as Kriv's. The Dragonborn corporal finds an open spot and looms over the scene now that the crowd has started to disperse. "That is one ugly thing." He says and prods the creature with his foot. As this is happening, the two clergy from the temple walk up and quietly place a large cloth over the body. The cloth immediately starts to darken in spots from soaking up blood. The clergy take a few steps back and remain quiet.
[Umuni/Tarkin/Mattias] Through the midst of wandering around; Umuni, Tarkin manage to catch Mattias on his way back to the Rough Riders' HQ. Mattias appears to be heading back with some haste and purpose.
