Jazz just wants to make it rain.

Jazzle had heard the tale of the origin tree before, and while it always sounded like a nice story it always sounded like pure superstition. Fire, magma, acid, and other things couldn't be quelled by a TREE. Of course he didn't voice that opinion to those present.

Jazz didn't believe in the origin story, but lots of people in the past did. Even if they didn't find the genuine article in the seed that had created all life, an ancient city where a bunch of voodoo pokin', bone scryin', palm readin' bozos could have a lot of valuable stuff inside. So the goblin nodded his head and grinned, because if superstition was good for anything it could turn a quick buck.

"You know Kettle you are absolutely cotton picking insane, but that's why I like ya. I'm in!" Jazz said enthusiastically. "There will probably be plenty of loot stored away in ancient vases and stuff we can pawn off easily. My question is if we actually do find this magical seed whatever, what will we do with it? Are we selling that thing off too?"

I apologize to anyone I haven't properly acknowledged, I promise when things aren't quite so confusing I will have Jazz properly meet. It is just a bit confusing right now with everyone going on at once is all.

Jazz listened intently as he was formally introduced to the champion of the ring.
"Hey, uh... yeah. Nice to meet you, aherm. Uh you too Croft." Jazz was a bit embarrassed by his outburst, but he kind of got caught in the heat of the moment. He should probably try harder to play it cool, wouldn't want to set a bad impression.

It had been some time since Jazz had seen A'shinok compete in the arena, he was starting to wonder if he had received some kind of debilitating injury, or worse. But there his hero was, in the flesh and looking as dangerous as ever. Jazz had many questions, but decided it would be better for him to figure out where he stands with the rest of the group first.

Croft... was a weird one. Self proclaimed genius. Somehow Jazz was skeptical. Whether he is as intelligent as he claims he is or not, Jazz didn't like his self assured attitude. He would keep an eye on this guy. It took a moment for Jazz to get comfortable with the conversation, but Kettle's presence made him feel a bit more comfortable and soon he joined the group in their banter. Kettle knows how to bring a group together, as Jazz's experience has lead him to believe.

===================================================

Jazz had just finished retelling his tale about his run-in with a flock of angry goose-hawks when an elderly man entered the room. It seemed like he was just about to be introduced when another character suddenly burst through the doors of the blunderbuss. He would recognize that ridiculous beast from anywhere. Jazz tried his best not to make eye contact, hoping that the young woman on top of the tiger-thing wouldn't recognize him. This is not the company to have discussions about his past life as a petty thief. Jazz took a silent breath of relief when the medicine-woman became distracted by the food and beverage.

Jazz gave Bishop a friendly nod when he sat down at the table.
"The name's Jazz, I fix things. It can be hard to say hi when the tykes come burstin' in screeching like a harpy." Jazz turned to look at Sarantsatsral but she was much too distracted. He shrugged and focused the attention back to the discussion at hand. He tried his best to get to know everyone, but it was a lot to take in.

===================================================

The evening soon turned into something of a blur from the goblin's perspective. So many people entering and being introduced, it would take a while to process and remember all of their names. He would like to get properly acquainted with everyone... once the chaos has calmed down a bit.

I will try to keep up to date on stuff, but I might not be available until tomorrow for posting. It's game night!

For the record, Jazz is meant to be built up as someone who doesn't really do social interaction that well. He isn't trying to be rude, he just doesn't have many non-goblin friends, and there is a bit of a culture barrier to overcome. It will take adjustment.

Jazz sat hunched over in small dark room, inspecting a slip of paper in the dim light provided by the lamp. The occasionally bump caused by the uneven road made the flames of his only light source flicker.

She wanted me to go WHERE?!

The young goblin was going over the written parcel with an unbelieving scowl even as he was on the way to his friend's meeting place, smuggled unknowingly in a crate that at one point carried nothing but potatoes. He got rid of most of them; he kept a few around for snacks during his long trip. He had never even heard of such a place as the 'Blunderbuss Cafe'. It took a lot of work to even find someone who knew of such a place, and even more work to find a carriage that was passing by. If he didn't have respect for the seasoned explorer then Jazz would have never gone through the trouble.

Jazz was jolted to attention when he heard a ringing come from inside of his bag. It was time to get outta this box! 16 hours was a lot of time to spend with only potatoes as his company. Jazz reached into his bag and pulled out a large, intimidating using device. It was a steam-drill, refitted to work with a crank based system rather then the complex method of boiling up steam. He pointed the sharp device towards the floor, imbedded it into the wood with a might stamp, and got to work turning. He wondered if this dug through wood as well as stone, he would soon find out.

It felt like it took forever, but with some elbow grease there was a clean hole just large enough for the little guy to fit through. First, Jazz gently dropped his woolen knapsack of equipment down the hole, before equipping his goggles and diving after them. When the caravan would come to a stop later, all the rider would find is 3 half eaten potatoes, a hole, and a jar of yellow liquid not deserving of elaboration in a forum post.

====================================

"OW, OUCH, FRACK, BLEEDING GOATCOWS!" Jazz cried as he unceremoniously tumbled on the sandy road of the desert of glass. The young goblin took a moment to lay on the ground and groan about his fresh bruises before picking himself up, muttering fowl goblin curses in entire way. He hobbled over to his bag of equipment and kneeled over to pick up his scattered belongings. It took him a moment to finish cleaning his precious things up before he turned around.... and realized that he had finally made it. There was the slightly worn bar that looked worn form years of frequent usage, the blunderbuss hanging above the door, and the unfortunately familiar smell of dragoncamel. Jazz slung his stuff over his shoulder before striding inside, a self satisfied smirk on his face at the scheme he had just pulled off.

=====================================

Jazz walked through the door and didn't stop to look around at all. He simply marched over and sat down in the chair across from Kettle, reaching out for a cup of tea and scarfing it down. There were a few minutes of uncomfortable silence as the goblin scarfed the drink down, he was absolutely parched! With a mouth full of hot tea he finally gave Kettle an acknowledging nod before turning to the other two present. The human gentlemen didn't really stand out to Jazz at all but... the lizard man... was it...?!

He spat his beverage out the nearest window.

"Uh... Kettle? Is that... is that who I think it is?" He pointed at A'shinok with all of the giddiness of a child.

@Mr_pinkNiiiiiiiiiice. I'm into it. :P

Oh man this DID blow up overnight.

also @WatermelonTango I love your reason for knowing A'shinok. I feel bad that Jazz will be disappointed that he doesn't fight for sport anymore though.


That's something I had in mind. As Jazz has been developing, he has become more and more of a hoodlum. And I kind of love it! I imagine it would be an interesting interaction to see the changed A'shinok and the still rebellious Jazzle meet.

@AiyvaGuard

Be creative! If you want to include my character go for it, but generally we have been just kind of rolling with whatever kind of story the characters might come up with. As long as it isn't too outlandish I am sure we'll be cool with it.

It is shocking just how much has happened while I was in sleep nap land. And you were concerned that the RP would never start!
