And back I am. Exhausted, certainly, and may need a while for that to wear off, but I'm once more here to read and even write!

Should have been writing posts. Took part in D&D shenaniganry instead. Got to fix that tomorrow.

There's a lot of backlog here on my end. I'm trying my best to lessen it, but replies might be less frequent for a time. A welcome change from the nothing doing I went through though! Thanks partners!

Bio

I suppose it is about time for me to copypaste fill in some information about myself over here just as well. Only took me a few years to getting around to do it.

I am a married individual in my twenties from the country some people dare claim does not exist. The Finland conspiracy is an old joke, you can stop with it now. Not a native speaker of the English language by any means, though I did begin studying it exceptionally early for our country's standards. I suppose it was some sort of a test case. With that out of the way though, what more should I be saying here...
  • I like being nice to people. If one needs to ask why, well that alone is reason enough.
  • I play and Dungeon Master Dungeons and Dragons, both offline and in the past also over here.
  • I enjoy OOC chatter, be it planning the RP or a more casual exchange (not that RP'ing is that serious). I can make do without, but don't be afraid to talk to me.
  • Whatever the case, I'm here to have fun and hone my writing abilities!
I do think that should about cover it, yes.

Thanks for stopping by I suppose! I do also have a Discord account, but I prefer to start anything RP related on the site. At least with people I don't know from the past, that is! But hey, now if you are a longer time contact of mine and happened to read this, now you know and can ask!

That is somewhat dependent on your Druid's performance @Lucius Cypher, but if they neglect to participate that is a whole another can of worms. I should have my notes at hand in six hours or so. If we lack any note from the player by that point, I will assume they neglect to arrive personally at the scene you are at and give you the information accordingly.
I believe the message is still in your court at the moment, @Hekazu, unless that was the end of it and its details.


Ah yes, that was dependent on what the druid was up to, that. @Gordian Nought, any details about your actions?
I was under the assumption that there would be a post from @Gordian Nought or @The Harbinger of Ferocity before we move on at the very least. Have I made a mistake?
Mr. Spices seemed displeased at the hurry the majority had in hearing the reason for the summons. It shook its head under the cloak and took a huff from the hookah before spreading its arms and speaking up in its high pitched voice: "All this laid out for you, and still you would choose to go right into the matter at hand? Despite all the preparations we have seen?" Part of the colour drained from Lady Monica's face. Had they displeased a Master by being more interested in them than all that they had generously offered? Was it offended? Would it not share the knowledge with them now that-

She wasn't quite done with the panicking by the time Mr. Spices set the mouthpiece of the hookah back into its place and laughed. A Master laughed, pleased at something that the Parasol-toting Poet now began to realise. Offerings were quite largely the style of Mr. Wines. Of course! Spices was only pleased that they had... oh dearie her, she had these brash individuals to thank for handling this situation properly. They had won over the Master for her. She should keep count on these people. Do a good turn for them in return one day, perhaps? Assuming she would ever get to know their actual identities... she reached for one of the other mouthpieces and inhaled some of the smoke herself. The steam was pleasantly sweet tasting, and... oh, one could truly feel the Master's expert touch in this. She hadn't had anything quite this fine since... ah, but that visit to the Labyrinth was a whole another matter. It could wait. The Master was speaking.

"There is a certain individual whom we formerly considered an important agent. We have heard worrying news of their latest activities, and... the varying areas of expertise of the people invited here will prove quite handy in chasing them down. You. You have shown initiative. And your very presence here should tell you that we did not find your skills lacking. Now perhaps you can correct the mistake of... no, let me not get deeper into that", it explained, already quite lengthily. It was not the complete story, but it answered the questions asked from them. The Master took another huff for themselves, waiting to see if the more impatient of the folk were going to make good of their promise to tuck tail and move away, disinterested in the whole ordeal laid before them.

Lady Monica, for one, was one of the last to even consider such a thing! To work directly under a Master's command... it was quite the exciting thought for her to be sure! She had, for the longest time, worked only under those that worked for the Masters, her name having risen in their knowledge, but even then that usually amounted to nothing but Mr. Pages sometimes looking the other way when the Ministry had got their fangs on one of her publications. But now... oh dear, what an opportunity this was! More of the hookah steam was inhaled in celebration, all the while she spun her parasol again, the small ribbons flapping quite happily in the air. She was obviously downright giddy!

@Lady Selune@Sofaking Fancy@Gordian Nought@Templar Knight@Mortarion
We will be advancing this story tomorrow, whether we see a post from @Lady Selune prior to that or not! The wait has been long enough!
Nothing in particular. Time to escape!

May Judgement find Parum, Orchid or Kyra, @Hekazu?


If you want them to. You have a mental link to them if they are close enough to you, right? I would suppose in this time they have been within 100 feet range of you for you to give that order. And you can always look through its senses if I've understood correctly.
@The Harbinger of Ferocity

If you would like to attempt an escape with (or without) the knife of yours provided by Orchid, you will want to get in private contact. Other than that, I don't think there is anything in particular? Unless @Gordian Nought would like a word about that?
No more need to send rolls, DM post is out! All seems to be well and proceeding smoothly.

You are free to approach Leosin's position without checking with me, though there is one guard occasionally present. Judgement has provided Torus with the knowledge of this man's schedule, but how that will be relied to the rest is the question. If you are willing to risk it at a random time, dice will tell how it turns out. Or you can try for a cautious approach, which calls for a stealth and a perception roll from the character attempting the scouting.
As the bard's magic wracked his mind, realisation flashed in the acolyte's eyes. He attempted to turn, but was met by two more of the supposed mercenary party as well as their weapons. Despite his best attempts at avoiding the effects of the quite successful ambush, he could not bend fate to his will. Now he regretted the fact he hadn't prepared and cast Sanctuary, though whether that would have changed the outcome would never be known. With the two other combatants beating the lights out of him, the acolyte went down without as much as a peep.

On with the show. They had an outfit to steal and a monk to rescue. And with no signs of alarm blaring out immediately, all was looking well for their plan to come. Oh, other than the two remaining party members that either knew or did not know what the others had been doing, depending on the positioning of Judgement at the time of the deed. The party had chosen a relatively remote location after all.


@The Harbinger of Ferocity@Ryonara@Lucius Cypher@Gordian Nought@Norschtalen
So that's the plan you are going with...

Right, I will need stealth checks from @Lucius Cypher and @Norschtalen, as well as attack rolls with advantage. The (chronologically) latter of the two dice will be omitted in case of the stealth failing and Davis being aware of your attack, but that is character specific. Do also give me the damage for your nonlethal assault.

@Ryonara, if you would provide me with the 1d4 damage roll for your cantrip, that would be swell. In case he fails his save, you know.

Rolls will be supplied by me tomorrow in case you have not taken the opportunity to make them yourself before that point.
