Sorry for the delay... I'm on my phone, but will hopefully be back to a computer later tonight or tomorrow morning and will get in a post.

@Crab... see if you can find out what she's interested in. Then ask her about it. No flirting need be involved to just break the ice. :)

Bio
Long time casual role player who loves tales of adventure! I enjoy tabletop games, play-by-post, and even LARP!
Wild (and sometimes weird) west and medieval fantasy games with an 'old-school' D&D feel are my favorite.
In real life, I'm a software engineer and wanna-be farmer. I have a little garden and some chickens that like to destroy my flower beds. But I like 'em anyway and they all have names. ;) Sometimes they lay me some breakfast.
Other hobbies include dog agility and archery.

Bump...
Now, if only we had @Assallya, practically the whole old crew would be here. ;)
Rook felt momentarily annoyed that Brock simply declared he was sticking around with them. But she couldn't help but smile just a little at his observation that they attracted excitement and adventure.
Excitement and adventure. Aside from the obvious desire to locate the rumored treasure, there was that. She was a few years older than Kaiden, but had known him since they were both children, and they had remained good friends. She thought back to their childhood and their 'adventures' which usually consisted of slaying imaginary monsters and hunting for new places to explore, once getting so lost that they did not find their way back home for two whole days! Her mother had been convinced they were both dead and they were forbidden from exploring together for months after that.
So when the map had come into her possession, Kaiden was naturally the person she thought immediately to include. It had not been difficult to convince him to go on this venture and they'd spent the last few weeks conspiring and making preparations.
And so she was not anxious to allow others to intrude on their quest. When Brock stepped away to meet the newcomer, Rook took the opportunity to glance down at what Kaiden had pressed into her hand and she looked curiously at the parchment with the gold stamp and some strange markings. Once all the commotion had died down, she would have a closer look. For now, she shoved the parchment into the pocket inside her leather vest along with the map and then turned to get a better look at the fellow covered in bandages.
"Not bandits," she said, keeping a healthy distance away for fear the bandages might mean the man was a leper. "Just travelers. But what of you?" Her eyes landed momentarily on the sword, then searched the surrounding forest again. Something about the man's relaxed demeanor struck her as suspicious. Did he have companions hidden? She glanced in the direction where Kaiden had disappeared into the brush, hoping that he would kill his quarry quickly and they could be on their way. Her eyes then caught a small bit of purple... a figure lurking behind the huge oak tree nearby.
Her heart lunged into her throat as she thought her suspicions confirmed and she took an involuntary step backwards. "Kaiden? We.. ah... should be going..."

For @Marcus XVI, there's always room! :)
@Ashevelendar, do you want me to post? I realized we might each be waiting on the other...
Tamra knelt and touched the sigil on the floor, closing her eyes to better concentrate on the magical energies, then opened them a few moments later, looking startled. "What kind of maniacal being was this Sezrekan?" she wondered aloud, then looked to the others. "Spill blood of a living being to open the way." Shaking her head, she continued as her eyes were drawn to the small puddle of blood on the floor near the pearl-eyed dragon. "I'm not sure how much is needed, but if that's any indication..." she trailed off, not anxious to volunteer.
There certainly wasn't enough on the floor to indicate that anyone had died, but it was an unpleasant prospect nevertheless.

Wondering if Kaiden's initial call meant he had found the ruins and possibly even a way in, Rook was anxious to have a look. She hesitated though, not liking the idea of having Brock trailing them. Even though he had managed to avoid her question, it was seeming more and more likely that both parties were here with the same goal.
"Kaiden, Brock here was just explaining that he had lost his way in these woods," she said to her friend. Looking back to the fair-haired swordsman, she gestured southwest. "The Blackoak Rill is only a short hike in that direction. It flows south and then east, all the way to Ashdown," she offered, both to be helpful if he was indeed lost and also in hopes that he might let something more slip about his destination or purpose.
