[IC] The Adventures Haven ~ New Heros Welcome to Join

[themadhatter420]

The Adventures Haven is as lively as ever. It is never a dull moment here, Aryal smiled looking around. Just what I like. She was so shocked at how far she had come from slaying dragons with a party of people she will never forget, taking down a god, to now running her very own guild. It was truly surprising how things changed, but now she can make a difference offering jobs all over the realm to help as many people as the guild possibly could. Aryal was at the enchanted job board. She had a new list of jobs to include and began writing each one. As soon as she finished one, the scroll would roll itself and pin itself to the city where the job was located.

Silver Night stood at the bar, using a clean cloth to try and polish the mahogany wood bar. He had taken a lot of time and effort to make this place look nice and he was more than happy to do so. He would do anything if it made his wife and family happy. As he began to clean up the bar area as well as glasses, tankards, and stocking everything, he would hear the music start to flow into the bustling tavern. When he looked over he saw his youngest son, Flickering Fire, sitting on a stool with his lute in his hand. Silver had no idea where his son discovered his talent but he had to admit, he was very talented.

~~~~~~~~~

In the back of the hall in the training arena, loud crashes of metal rang out. Looks like training was in session. Breath of Life, the eldest of Aryal and SIlver, was having his daily class in session. Even if no one attended, nothing stopped the barbarian from training. He was holding only one of his axes and practicing his swing up and down on a metal armored dummy up and down.

LURA adjusted her satchel as she walked down the road. She knew there was a town somewhere around here, and she needed to find a place to stay. She just hoped she could get there before the storm did. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw lights in the distance. Pulling her hood over her head, she cautiously stepped into the town. She knew many heroes would want nothing more than to snatch up orphaned children-
They called it protection- She called it ensnarement. She wouldn't let some overambitious hero clip her wings.
This town was full to the brim with them, but it also promised work and a place to stay. High risk, High reward.
Steeling herself, she stepped into the tavern.

The door bell chimes. A new patron. Silver Night looked up from the bar with a big welcoming smile. "Welcome to Adventures Haven. Are you looking to get a drink, a hot meal, a warm bed, or maybe join our adventurer guild." He would say in a loud voice to try and draw the new Patrons attention to her.

Flickering Fire also would see the new parton come in. Looks to be a rouge, he thought to himself. But it didnt matter, everyone was welcome. Thats why his mother set this up. There is nothing wrong with a safe place where if the rules are followed, you can always stay and find work with ease.

A figure sat at a table near the corner, hunched over slightly and gripping at her head with one arm. Most would assume she was shaking off a hangover, but in fact this half-drow was doing her best to remain lucid and in the moment. She struggled for a moment, until once again her mind quieted. She had come to town for the usual. Work that would lead her to ancient and forgotten places. She stood out a little in her current environment. She was wearing the fine clothes of a noble, complete with a deep red cape. On her side was a rapier, ordained with silver and jewels, and on the other, a fairly heavy coin purse. She looked up as the bell to the door rang, noticing a child enter. She was sure it wouldn't mean much to her, though. Now that she had her wits about her, the woman stood up and strode to the job wall, stopping before Aryal.

"Salutations. I am Elerra, of the House Vandree." She winced for a moment as her mind once again ached and warped against her will. She did her best to shake it off and continue. [color=#2E86C1]"I am interested in any jobs that require delving into parts unknown or forgotten. Mayhap such a quest is upon thy board?"[\color] She knew that it was madness to find what she was looking for on her first try in a new town, so continued. "Of course, if you do not, I am happy to earn my keep helping the common folk however possible."

[themadhatter420]

@RogueFox

Aryal would look up with the sound of footsteps approaching her. She would see a half-drow woman giving her a smile stopping what she was writing to listen to their question. "Hello. Well, yes we have a wide variety of jobs today. Are you working on your own or do you plan on joining a group? Also are you a member of the Adventures Haven? Guild members have an even longer list of jobs to be picked from that may be a bit more dangerous." Aryal would ask explaing the different teirs of jobs. [url][/url]

[Marybecker]

She was acutely aware of every person in the tavern as she slunk up to the bartender. What if this was too risky? What if it got her caught?
But she knew she needed work. She couldn't survive off petty thievery forever. She just couldn't.
"G-greetings. I'd like a room for the night, and..." She swallowed, trying desperately not to sound like a scared child.
Now now, She chided herself. Unless you want to get caught, start acting like you belong here.
"I was wondering if maybe you had any work for me?"
Great. She sounded pathetic.

Silver Night noticed the woman appeared to be very nervous but he knew not everyone was great at social interactions. Everyone has their own reasons for acting the way they do. "Yes I do still have some rooms available. Is it just yourself or are you traveling with a party?" He asked as he reached under the bar pulling out a book and quill, turning to the correct page to look at what rooms were open. "I have a room with a single bed, queen bed, or a room with 2 beds still open for a traveling party. As for work, once you are checked in you can see my wife, Aryal over there at the information board. Shes the Tabaxi speaking with the half Drow."

[RogueFox]

As Aryal spoke, Ellera's lips tightened into something of a grimace. "I had wondered if that were the case. How doth one join thy guild? I wish to take jobs that align with my skills." She reached for her coin purse, assuming that there was some fee for joining the guild. It wouldn't be the worst way to spend her gold. She noticed the young girl asking for a room and jobs, which stood out to her. She seemed young to be adventuring alone. Yet, she knew all too well how annoyed she'd be if someone took it upon themselves to help her, so she gave the youngling her space.

[themadhatter420]

@RogueFox

Aryal would look and see the lady before her reach for her coin purse. "Actually, there is no fee to join. I just need to gather a bit of your information to add you to the register. Once you are on the list of members, whenever you approach the board here it will display all of the member only quests. It will also be set to your prefernces if you want to travel alone, with other people, to explore, fight, or even protection runs." She said as she turned around reaching for a book. As soon as she opened the book it began to float in the air and pull out its own quill to write. "First things first. What is your name? And please include any titles you may have as well."

[Marybecker]

"Just myself. The single bed will do fine."
She was glad the bartender seemed to not care. She paid him, nodded, and glanced over at the table.
One danger at a time, she thought. I'll check it out tomorrow. Besides, my boots are all muddy...
She could already feel suspicious eyes on her, and she didn't come this far to get caught here.
She sauntered past the table silently, and had almost gotten to the stairs peacefully-
"Hey, you."
S##t.

[themadhatter420]

@Marybecker

Silver would collect the coins. "I do need a name to put down in the book..." He went to say not sure if she would give her actual name or if she didnt provide one he could just assign her one, but it helped keep track of who came to the guild and who kept coming. As she walked away he heard someone call out and he would turn to see who they were addressing, noticing it was the person who just got a room. He kept watching to see what would transpire and step in if need be.

[Marybecker]

Sweat dripped down her nose. She arched her shoulders slightly.
Please just be something normal.
She turned on her heel, taking in the person before her. Young, likely wanting glory.
"Yes?"

[themadhatter420]

@Marybecker

A young human fighter stands up looking at the rouge in front of him. "Aren't you the girl on the wanted posters? It has to be you, the likeness is uncanny."

Silver would walk over slowly seeing the encounter. "The Adventures Haven is exactly what the name implies. If you attempt to arrest her, you will be removed from the establishment and asked not to return." he would say placing a hand on the sword handle on his him and standing with a presense of authority.

[Marybecker]

"I have no idea what you're talking about, I'm 24." She lied through her teeth.
"You must be confused."
But the man from the bar came over. Expecting him to agree, Lura rested her hand on her blade.
The 2 began to quarrel, and Lura attempted to silently slink away.

[themadhatter420]

@Marybecker

The man looked at Silver and was shocked at his response. "Not everyone makes good choices but no one deserves to be betrayed trust." Silver would say as if he was reciting some sort of old-world wisdom. "now are you going go try and arrest her or will we have to call in the big guns from outside?" He said chuckling, everyone who frequented the bar knew that meant his eldest barbarian son.

[Marybecker]

Lura, for once, was glad someone had stuck their nose where it didn't belong.
She'd been running for so, so long. Maybe she could finally stay somewhere.
Maybe.

[Marybecker]

She looked between the 2 men, silently glaring at the one who had accosted her.
But the other had defended her. Then again, it could all be fake. Maybe the man wanted to simply turn her in himself.
Still, part of her hoped he was genuine.

[themadhatter420]

@Marybecker

The man looked up seeing the very powerful ranger with his hand placed on the handle of the short sword. The man knew no one who tried to take on the guild owners ended up leaving the way they came in. He sat back down letting out a kiss. Silver smiled up at the rouge with a head nod. "Enjoy your evening."

[SsssssSsSsssSs]

Walking up to the Staff Counter, I a lone shirtless Thief present myself. "Hi, I'm quite the Thief myself, but I've never been wanted... You got a Job in need of a Swordsman?"
