P2e - Threshold of Knowledge

@meri Awesome! I can come up with a stand-in human form pawn for when Vasimiri is not in spider form.

Also, just to let everyone know, I've relaxed the rule:

1. Touch the "IC" board at least twice a week.

To:

1. Touch the "IC" board at least once a week.

Twice seems a little too much, but once a week seems logical, given there will be at least three Storyteller posts for characters to respond to.

Of course, if you're going to be out of town or traveling or can't post up for some reason, please let me know that way I know you're not MIA. If you let me know ahead of time when you have an absence coming up for a week, I think we can hold your spot for at least another week before swapping in someone off the waiting list.

@Xandrya You just like to stir the pot! I appreciate this.

Firefly - Second 'Verse

@Xandrya Hahahahah, yeah I was picturing a Dennis the Menace style relationship with Imani shaking her fist at an eleven year old.

Firefly - Second 'Verse

That's a fantastic idea @Xandrya! I'm curious to see if Gunther will go for it. Oh the shenanigans a rivalry between an eleven year old and a grown woman might offer!

Hey all!

Update this Friday morning:

We're swapping out Tylo the Lowly for Thornharp Whistlewind!

We'll retcon that this Leshy Bard has been with the group since the beginning instead of the tall human, Tylo. I've also updated the first post in the OOC to reflect our current waitlist and the characters tab to include Thornharp!

Please feel free to introduce yourself and your character @apheline!

The gods thunder at your deception. The hairs on the back of your neck stand up.

-1 for making me look it up...

j/k, your recall knowledge roll was: 12

Storyteller Note:

Being intimately familiar with mobs, and by extension, crowds, Jenk intuitively understands the way to navigate through them in the direction Haibram rattled off. He knows roughly which course Haibram said he would use, and which direction north west actually is.

Good job Jenk, you paid attention. If you let your comrades know what you remember, they might be able to benefit from your direction, even if you don't leg it with the longshankses.

@rush99999 Would you like to Recall Knowledge to find out how much of Haibram's directions you remember? I'll need your society modifier if you do.

New post is up! Next post will be Friday night, PDT!

P2e - Threshold of Knowledge

Haibram

Scene:

Nantambu is overwhelming. The night stars are still visible in the slowly brightening blue of dawn, but the city already bustles around the initiates in a dizzying choreography. The floral scents of the Indigo Hall give way to a peaty mildew wafting from the nearby Gonbossa canal. From deeper in the city, the sweet scent of flatbreads being prepared fills the air. As the heroes begin to leave the Magaambya grounds and step out into the greater city, they hear another student call out to them.

A grinning dwarf clad in full plate runs out from the Indigo Hall, waving. “I overheard where you’re headed. Want to race to Alandri’s stall? I’m headed in that same direction to help with Sharrowsmith. I helped Alandri a lot during my Perquisite, and I know the quickest way to get there!”

The dwarf offers a handshake to Jenk, "Name's Haibram." He explains his route to reach the stall, and before the group can fully process his directions, he’s off to the races, running ahead. Haibram yells for the heroes to follow him, "You’ll reach the stall in no time if you can keep up."

For a dwarf with short legs and clad in full plate to boot, that Haibram can run. If you're going to keep up with him, you ought to leave now... Ahead, you all see that though the dawn is coming, the streets of this bustling city have already begun to fill with folk on their way to their daily tasks. Haibram appears to be headed right for a throng of passersby.

End Scene

Storyteller's Aside

You all remember Teacher Ot's admonition regarding your first task to meet Alandri: "Do not be late."

Jenk: You may not know which way is northwest, but with your dark vision you have no trouble picking out the direction Haibram is running...

Fluer: How comfortable are those boots she's wearing?

Alwin: Tracking, now that's something you're familiar with. But what about in a large city?

Magaambya is awakening for the day, and Haibram knows the way. What do you do?

OOC: Let me know if you'd like me to prompt the group with some things you could all do that apply to the situation at hand!
