The 2 Story Tavern

*Gtg for rn, but I can probably talk later.*

Sorry.  My dad was outside and I think he mistook me for an intruder. He hates intruders. No sooner did he say "I'M WARNING YOU!" when he threw one of his sleek assassin's knives at me. *She traces the long thin scar snaking diagonally across her nose* He thought the intruder was dead, so he left. I managed to put some distance between me and the house and bandage myself. Later, while I was still camping in Neverwinter Wood, I heard a twig snapping behind me. It was a mist-wolf. It approached me and pinned me down, and I felt another thing snap under the weight of the snarling beast. Was that my arm? At that moment, staring at the beast, I did something I never wanted to do. I controlled it. It walked away and disappeared into the bushes. I felt sick after I used my powers. Kind of like my family.

Quote from DrakenBrine >>

Meila found a broom and is sweeping falcon feathers off the floor.

The green skinned Tiefling with stag horns and a baby Remorhaz on his shoulder is now tuning a lute seemingly made of grass, vines, and bark.

*hears new sound and stops her story, ties a blindfold on*

“That’s true! But I just love the fog in Baldur’s Gate. It’s so romantic. In the literary sense, I mean.”

 "I can agree. The atmosphere is certainly good" she grins

 Kayla grins back at her. “Ever been adventuring?”

 "Gosh I wish, though I could consider traveling with the big top adventuring" she says

 “I always wanted to be an adventurer. But I bet living with the big top must be fun too.”

Quote from MoonWatcher19 >>

The lights in the downstairs of the tavern start to flicker. One by one they all shut off until only the elevator is still lit up. The elevator begins to shake as an orange symbol flashes on the doors for a moment. The elevator dings and opens up, revealing another door made out of wood. Black tendrils come out from around the door, snaking along the walls and the floor. The door opens and a man comes out. In one of his hands is a briefcase and in the other a small black container. The container's top is open and a red gem hovers within it. As the man closes the top of the container, the door disappears along with the tendrils and the lights return to normal. 

The man himself is wearing a cloak that obscures his face and most of his body and a small shovel pendant hangs on his neck. Placing the briefcase down on a table, the man opens it up and places the container inside before closing it back up. Ignoring the stares from the people around him, he walks over to the desk to get a room. 

 

 “What’s in the container?” Kayla (a young gnome woman with long brown hair and lots of jewelry) asks. She’s curious about this man and decided to just ask him.

"A sample of The Null. It is quite facinating"

 “That is fascinating! What’s the Null? Also, I’m a gem cutter, so I know a lot about the properties of gems.”

 "The Null is most commonly refered to as the 5th element. It may look like a gem but I assure you it is not."

 Marcus blinks many many times to make sure he's seeing this correctly. "-Hello there! Have you come down from the cafe? ...Maybe I can get you something to drink?"

 “That’s great! It sounds like you really like it there.” Kayla snaps her fingers. She reaches in her pack and hands Pekkan a black stone. “This is a sending stone. If you want, you can message me if you’re out on the road and anything super exciting or adventurous happens to you. And I’ll do the same for you.”

*Good Morning everyone.*

Lore is sitting on a swing, out in the forest. She is reading to herself, teaching herself Aquan tongue while her dogs nap happily beneath the shade.

Jackson is outside as well but he is currently walking through ruins to find something he needs for a spell. He carries his spell book at his side and wand in hand. A glowing orb of light follows him.

Oval and her child are inside the library. She is reading a picture book to the child who giggles happily and pretends to be an eagle, blanket wrapped around their shoulder as wings.

 A figure in black wrappings, sitting in an automated steam wheelchair filled with shawdowstuff in place of water, wheels himself into the library. Black flowers made out of glass "grow" all over the chair.
