languidLachesis (GM): huehue okay Soooooooooo you find yourself on your land, in a small clearing in the deep bayou. In the distance, you can see flickering lights. Rilset: A little more relaxed than normal, Rilset makes his way through the trees and grass towards the lights, making an effort to be quiet. languidLachesis (GM): roll stealth, please Rilset:                rolling 4df+3 ( -   +   -   +    )+3 = 3 Roll Void to boost? languidLachesis (GM): yeah go ahead. Rilset:                rolling 4df+7 ( +   -   +   +    )+7 = 9 languidLachesis (GM): Okay. You easily approach a small clutch of paddleboats, across a wide but shallow river. beyond that, you can see a city. Rilset: Can Rilset see anyone around the paddleboats? languidLachesis (GM): You can see a handful of masked revelers scattered about, laughing and chatting with drinks in hand. Rilset: Can he tell what these revelers look like, aside from the masks? languidLachesis (GM): no, other than the fact that their skin is deathly pale. But that's only from flashes of neck and chin and wrist. Other than that they are mostly covered, though they appear humanoid. Rilset: How close to the boats are the revelers? Are any boats unoccupied? languidLachesis (GM): the revelers are on every boat. There are some empty portions of the boat especially along the sides that you could access, if you like <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Is there any individual reveler isolated from the others? On the shore. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): No, the revelers all appear to be in groups, though there are secluded spots on the far shore. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset will attempt to cross the river, unseen if he can manage it. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): okay since you're using void, you can easily slip past the revelers, who are all involved in their own conversations, and not paying attention to the dark waters. Are you heading for the shore, or a boat? <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: The shore. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): All right. You pull yourself up onto the shore amid the roots of a large mangrove tree. You hear the clack of chopines over wood behind and to your left. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset ventures a careful look in the direction of the noise. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You see a small clutch of women sneaking off along a wooden path beneath the trees, whispering to each other. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset follows the women, sticking to the shadows and attempting to listen in. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): roll investigate <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+1 ( 0   +   -   0    )+1 = 1 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): you catch small snatches of their conversation, but not much. Something about a different party, people they know, and burnt rose bushes. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset grits his teeth at the mention of burnt bushes, but remains silent, tailing the women. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You can roll a Notice to get closer and hear more. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+2 ( +   0   -   +    )+2 = 3 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): As the conversation continues, you learn that Isabella, who appears to be the woman in blue, is upset that her latest lover set fire to her rose bushes when she tossed him out in favor of a woman. The other two are urging her to go to her previous lovers house and poison his wine. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset internally sighs a little at the pointless gossip, but continues to follow them. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): They proceed out into a street on the outskirts of town, between old houses supported more by climbing ivy than the crumbling brick they're built of. The ladies appear to be heading towards a busy house up the street, with filled with revelers. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Abruptly remembering his ability to fly, Rilset scans the roofs of the houses nearby for revelers. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): A few rooftop balconies are filled with revelers, enjoying a few drinks here and there. It seems some type of red wine is the drink of choice here. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Taking slowly to the air, Rilset attempts to make his way to the roof of the busy house the ladies are heading toward, doing his best to remain unseen. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): roll another stealth <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rolling Void for a bonus. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+7 ( 0   0   0   0    )+7 = 7 <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+3 ( +   0   0   +    )+3 = 5 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): very good you easily slip unnoticed into the crowd. roll notice for me. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+2 ( 0   0   -   -    )+2 = 0 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Rilset, as always, doesn't give a shit about what's going on with others. Where are you going? <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset looks around for the woman in blue. Perhaps, if she intends to visit her former lover, he might have words with the man over burning some innocent bushes. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): The woman entered the door downstairs, you'll have to go down from the roof (there are stairs heading down just past a table laden with dusty wine bottles and empty glasses). <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: On his way down the stairs, Rilset will attempt to Void two bottles of wine while caploging them, so no one will notice they are gone. Scarlet might enjoy them. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+7 ( +   +   -   0    )+7 = 8 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You can easily snag two, unnoticed. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Going down the stairs, Rilset watches for the woman in blue. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Roll investigate <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+1 ( 0   -   0   0    )+1 = 0 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You can't seem to find her, Rilset. There are a lot of women wearing blue here tonight. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: With a mental shrug, Rilset lets the matter go. Blending into the crowd, he listens in on the conversations around him. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Roll notice <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+2 ( 0   -   0   -    )+2 = 0 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Rilset gives no fucks. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Growing irritable at the highblood-like gossip, Rilset looks around for a table of food. These sorts of parties usually had such things, or so his reading had lead him to believe. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Every table you find only has bottles and glasses. Maybe you should examine them more closely. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Idly picking up a bottle, Rilset scans it, as if he had any idea what a quality wine even looked liked. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): The label reads "Maroon - Aged 13 sweeps" The one next to it reads "Human - 12 years" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "Hmm." Rilset hefts the bottle thoughtfully. It seemed blood was the drink of choice on this planet. With a shrug, he pulls the cork out with his teeth, pouring a little of the maroon blood onto his tongue for taste. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): tastes like nullar. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: His face tightening in a grimace, Rilset sets the bottle down hard. Some tastes were better left forgotten. Looking around the table, he attempts to see just how many different sorts of blood were represented. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): it's about an even mix between human and troll, with all the common hemospectrum castes being represented. Yours is not, but you can chalk that up to being a mutant. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset drums his fingers on the table. So, the consorts of this world had access to a considerable amount of blood. It seemed to follow they had access to a considerable number of bodies. He was heartily sick of eating alien flesh all the time. Perhaps, if he could discover where this blood came from, he might be able to add some variety to his diet. Lifting his eyes from the table, Rilset scans the room for anyone who might be a waiter or servant of some kind. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Roll Notice or investigate <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Notice. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+2 ( +   +   0   +    )+2 = 5 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You notice a handful of the revelers appear to be wearing the same costume - basic black domino masks, and black suits. They're most likely the servants <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset watches for any carrying away empty bottles. Perhaps they might lead him to a back room. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You notice one of them approaches a table and places two new bottles on it, then takes the empties, and heads away. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset attempts to follow the servant, without being seen. If, as he suspects, he has stumbled upon a party of rainbowdrinkers, avoiding conflict would be wise. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Roll stealth <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rolling Void for a bonus. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+7 ( -   -   0   0    )+7 = 5 <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+3 ( +   +   -   +    )+3 = 5 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You easily slip through the crowd, and into a nearby cellar The servant begins chatting with a few others, as he sets the bottles on a sideboard, and grabbing others from a rack. Roll Notice. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+2 ( 0   +   0   +    )+2 = 4 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You see a door standing slightly ajar on the far side of the room, and the scent of loam beckons from within. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Sneaking behind the servants, Rilset slips through the door. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You see a set of stairs, heading down into darkness. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset makes his way slowly down the stairs into the darkness, placing his feet carefully. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You come up to another door. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset attempts to listen for any sound on the other side. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+2 ( -   -   +   +    )+2 = 2 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Roll notice ok :P You hear a soft groaning in the distance. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset will spend a Fate Point to use Vorhees Vanish to appear in the room beyond the door. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): okay You find yourself in a large room filled with rows of tables. The scent of loam is overpowering here, with subtler accents of flowers, and blood. on each table you can see a humanoid figure, sometimes shifting uncomfortably, or whimpering softly. Each one has vines and leaves growing out of its torso, sometimes the roots penetrate other parts of their body. The vines are heavy with grapes. In the far corner of the room, a small green sign says "Night Cycle: 7:32". <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "Hmm." Rilset makes his way towards the feet of one writhing figure, looking down. While harvesting from plantlife was morally questionable at best, at least these rainbowdrinkers seemed to leave most of the plant intact. Rilset attempts to take a clipping from one of the vines. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Roll crafts <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+4 ( +   -   -   +    )+4 = 4 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You manage to get your hands on a healthy clipping. The troll it's growing out of begs for death. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset ignores the troll. The plant growing within him might suffer with its host dead, and his appetite is not worth risking that. Does Rilset recognize the troll? <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): no. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset looks around the room for other doors besides the one leading back up. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): There appears to be a door on each side, heading into other rooms. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset approaches the right-hand door, listening for a moment for any sound in the next room. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You hear similar moans and whimpers to those in this room. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Leaving that door for a moment, Rilset goes to the lefthand door, and does the same. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): It also has pained noises. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset opens the left-hand door a crack, sliding into the room. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Inside, you see a number of trolls lying on their backs, buried to their necks in dirt, with strawberry bushes growing in neat rows up their bodies. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Ignoring the trolls for the moment, Rilset scans the room for other doors or anything else of interest. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You see another door across the room from where you are. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset approaches one of the buried trolls, and attempts to harvest another plant sample. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+4 ( -   +   +   -    )+4 = 4 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Yet another wonderful samples! sample* <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Picking his way carefully through the rows, Rilset stops just in front of the next door, pausing for a moment to check for any noises on the other side. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Roll notice <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+2 ( -   -   +   +    )+2 = 2 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Along with the moaning, you hear a voice grumbling, "I spend all day maintaining these plants, and I can't even go enjoy the party. Oh no, no fun for me. It's just my party, in MY HOUSE, but here we are..." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset frowns. Spending a Fate Point, he uses Vorhees Vanish again to appear in the next room. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Inside you see an older man, with pale skin, and a vultures mask on top of his head. He's decidedly human in appearance. He's inspecting a large apple tree, growing out of a pile of human bodies. His back is to you. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset attempts to decaptolog one of his non-electric nets, to sneak up behind the man and pin him. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Roll stealth to decapthalogue your weapon silently <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rolling Void for a bonus. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+7 ( +   0   -   -    )+7 = 6 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): All right <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+3 ( 0   +   0   +    )+3 = 5 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You manage it. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Approaching the man from behind, Rilset tries to bring the net down upon him, pinning him without causing damage. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Strife, then <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+3 ( -   0   +   0    )+3 = 3 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): the old man will roll athletics. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">                rolling 4df+1 ( -   +   0   +    )+1 = 2 you manage to pin him <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Pulling the man down upon his back, Rilset attempts to tie the net holding him around the man, so that his arms and legs are pinned to his sides. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Roll Crafts please <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+4 ( 0   -   +   0    )+4 = 4 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You manage to tie him up. The human grouses angrily. "What's the meaning of this! I must tend to my children. Let me go this instant or I'll have you thrown out!" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "I am truly sorry for interrupting your duties, nobel gardener. But I am afraid I must have words with you." Rilset stands over the man, looking down. "You and your fellows are rainbowdrinkers, yes?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "Rainbowdrinkers? Oh, you're one of the grey ones. Yes, I think that's your word for us. What do you want?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "Information. How did you obtain these trolls and aliens?" Rilset gestures towards the pile of humans at the base of the tree. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "They were given to us, by the Baron." "Do you mind untying me? Or at least going over and slitting one of their throats? She's thirsty." He nods to the tree. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: After making sure the man is indeed securely tied, Rilset approaches the pile, decaptolging an ordinary knife and cutting the throat of a man near a bundle of roots. "Who is this Baron?" he asks, wiping the knife clean with a rag. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "Th-Th-The Baron...?" He seems confused. "Don't you know the Baron?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "No. Highblood society is not normally of interest to me." Rilset returns to the man's side. "Tell me about this Baron." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "He's not a highblood, he's one of us. He lives in the mansion at the top of the hill.                   " <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "Do you have any idea where the Baron gets these people? Or whether he would be willing to sell some of them?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "Sell them? Heavens No. He only gives them to those who earn his favor." "Can you turn on the mister, on the far side? It looks like some of the leaves are becoming overly dry." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset does as the man asks, letting just enough water fall. "How did you earn his favor, and gain all of these bodies?" he ask, turning to face the man again. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "I showed him the method of wine production I would use. He agreed, and gifts them to me. In return, I give him ample casks of wine every year." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "Hmm." Rilset paces around the man. "I can offer him no such incentive. But I have both a garden and an appetite of my own. You say that he lives in a manison on top of a hill. Have you been there?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): The old man nods. "Can you untie me? I need to get back to work." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "Will you attempt to attack me if I do?" Rilset asks curiously, watching the man. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "Why would I? You haven't hurt my little ones, you're just some curious idiot." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset considers for a moment. "If you tell me about the Baron's mansion and how I might enter it, I will release you. I have no wish to see your plants suffer." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "You merely exit my home through the front door, head right along the road, take the third left up main street, and at the top of the hill, the street terminates in front of the Baron's Mansion." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset nods, absorbing this. "Is there but one way into the mansion? Or are there back doors and servant's entrances as well?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "I don't know. If he has a servant's entrance, I've never used it. But I assume he must. He has a large number of your kind working in his household." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "Hmm. One more question and I will release you. How heavily guarded is this mansion? " <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "I haven't the foggiest. No one has ever crossed the Baron and lived to tell the tale." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset nods, decaploging a Subtle Knife. "I apologize for my abrupt interrogation. I would appreciate it if you did not alert anyone else to my presence." He bends down, cutting the man free with a few slices. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): The man nods and flexes his wrist. "Thank you. Do be a good lad and activate the misters on your way out though. I fear you have delayed my work, and it will save me some time." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset nods, turning on the misters on his way out the door. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): <span class="ooc" style="border: 1px dashed #888888; padding: 4px; color: #888888; background-color: #dddddd; display: inline-block;">skaypu <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: <span class="ooc" style="border: 1px dashed #888888; padding: 4px; color: #888888; background-color: #dddddd; display: inline-block;">Hello? <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): <span class="ooc" style="border: 1px dashed #888888; padding: 4px; color: #888888; background-color: #dddddd; display: inline-block;">test <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: <span class="ooc" style="border: 1px dashed #888888; padding: 4px; color: #888888; background-color: #dddddd; display: inline-block;">I see you. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Are you going to stealth back through the party? <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Making his way carefully up the dark stairs, Rilset slips through the door at the top, doing his best not to be seen. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Stealth again <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rolling Void for a bonus. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+7 ( -   0   0   -    )+7 = 5 <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+3 ( +   +   +   0    )+3 = 6 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): All right you can easily slip out of the house, onto the street outside. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Following the man's instructions, Rilset makes his way towards the Baron's mansion, keeping out of sight as much as possible. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): As you turn onto the main street, you see a glittering parade, with the pale revelers all over the floats. They appear to be drunk beyond comprehension, engaging in various acts of debauchery ranging from the delightful to the depraved. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Slightly repulsed by these blatant displays, Rilset attempts to make his way through the crowd without attracting attention, continuing towards the mansion. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): All right. You got high enough on your voidy stealth that you'll make it to the manor grounds. Roll Notice. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset:                rolling 4df+2 ( -   -   0   +    )+2 = 1 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You notice a placard on the front gate, announcing that this is the home of "Baron Samedi" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Satisfied that he has found the right place, Rilset slowly lifts into the air, flying over the fence and towards the house, doing his best to mask his approach. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): give me another stealth <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rolling Void for a bonus. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+7 ( 0   0   -   0    )+7 = 6 <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+3 ( +   -   +   -    )+3 = 3 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Okay You manage to get into the estate. There is no rooftop balcony here, but large balconies overlooking the estate on either side of the mansion. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset touches down slowly upon the righthand balcony, peering into the mansion. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): Inside, you see a long ballroom, shockingly empty. All the rest of the town seems to be buzzing with life, or what passes for it. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Entering cautiously, Rilset skirts the edges of the ballroom floor. He does not trust this sudden lack of people. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): The doors are open onto the back balcony, and into a large hallway closer to the front of the mansion. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Ignoring the hallway for a moment, Rilset carefully peers out the back balcony doors, attempting to see if anyone is there. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): You see a beach, and dark, seemingly endless waters. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Frowning, Rilset leaves the back balcony, making his way stealthily down the hallway. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): The hallway is blessedly carpeted, leaving the only sound to be the heavy ticking of a grandfather clock at the far end of the hallway. Though you see many closed doorways, one at the end stands open. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset crosses the hall to the door, doing his best to look inside without revealing himself. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): roll stealth <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rolling Void for a bonus. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+7 ( -   -   -   0    )+7 = 4 <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+3 ( -   0   +   -    )+3 = 2 <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM):                rolling 4df+8 ( 0   +   -   -    )+8 = 7 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: <span class="ooc" style="border: 1px dashed #888888; padding: 4px; color: #888888; background-color: #dddddd; display: inline-block;">Spending a Fate Point to re-roll stealth. <div class="message rollresult" style="padding-top: 7px; padding-left: 75px; font-style: italic; font-size: 12pt; color: #000080;">                rolling 4df+3 ( -   +   -   0    )+3 = 2 <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): <span class="ooc" style="border: 1px dashed #888888; padding: 4px; color: #888888; background-color: #dddddd; display: inline-block;">so, no then. You hear the clink of ice in a glass, and a low voice asks, "So, do you take ice in your rum, boy, or are you just going to prowl around my house all night?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset's shoulders slump a bit. "I am afraid I do not normally drink, save with my matesprite," he says resignedly, simply entering the room. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "Right, right, the pink one." The man at the table pours himself a drink, looking exceedingly dapper in his suit and top hat, save for the fact that he has only a skull for a head, with a smoking cigar locked in his rictus grin. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "Indeed." Rilset frowns a bit. "I admit to being somewhat surprised at your knowledge of my quadrants." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): He chuckles and removes the cigar from his mouth, taking a sip, then placing it back. "That one has a trail of corpses behind her almost as long as yours. Of course I know about her. But, to business. What brings you here?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset takes a deep breath. The man's skull and general spookiness has affected him more than he'd care to admit. "I'd hoped to discover where you obtain the trolls and aliens that nurture the plants that I saw, and see if I could acquire some for myself." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "They're the ones left over from your world, Alternia. I made a deal with your highbloods some time ago. Promised them a 'Dark Carnival'. They got to choose. Come here, or die there. I'm not interested in parting with them, though. They're scared, cow-eyed things, not fit for more than fertilizer." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "Which is what I intend to use many of them for." Rilset shifts in place, uncomfortable. "Perhaps a trade might be arranged? Do you desire something I might be able to give you?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "Hmm, well, depends. You hungry?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset's stomach grumbles. "I am," he says, redundantly. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): The Baron grins. "I have a snack for you. If you can eat it, without flinching, I'll give you one of each caste, and a human for kicks. All carved up into the best parts." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: A bit of drool slips from the corner of Rilset's mouth. He wipes it away hastily. "Truly?" he asks, doing a poor job of sounding dispassionate. "What snack might this be?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): He reaches into his desk, and pulls out a plate, setting it in front of you with a fork and a knife. I wont even make you roll, you'd recognize the pale pink shade anywhere. He grins. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset's expression hardens. "Where did you obtain this?" he asks harshly. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "Does it matter?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "As I do not know where my matespirte is at the moment, yes." His hands tighten into fists. <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "Which one?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset pauses. "I have but one matesprite, creature. Do not toy with me." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "I see. But there has been more than one of her, in this old Incipisphere. So I'm asking you, which one are you looking for?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset regards him warily. "You suggest that this comes from a previous incarnation of my beloved, then?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "It comes from the one in my basement. Damnedest thing, these twinks just keep growing back body parts that you cut off." He gestures to the plate. "So, are you going to eat, or not?" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset stares at the Baron. "You have a copy of my matesprite locked away in your basement," he says, growing louder and angrier. "The being whom I have pledged my body and soul to. Whom I love beyond all others." Bits of foam are beginning to form around his mouth. "You admit that you hold her captive, and cuts pieces from her to devour. And you stand there, asking me if I will eat of her flesh!" He is shouting by this point. "Release her!" he roars, decaptoging two knives. "Or else face me, monster! You shall never set a hand upon my love again!" <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "But is she your 'love'? This one doesn't even know who you are. She wouldn't know you from any other troll that walked into the room." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: "What of it?" he snarls. "Her feelings towards me are irrelevant. I care for Scarlet, and all those who bear her blood. I would no more let you harm her than I would let you harm my child." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): "Interesting. Well, this one's mine. You can have yours, and we'll call that quits. The only thing up for discussion here is that piece of meat on the table, and whether or not you want these trolls." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: Rilset knocks the plate from the table. "Forget your deal, and forget my attempts at civility. If you will not release Scarlet, than I will take her from you, and feast upon your flesh instead." <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">languidLachesis (GM): We'll continue this later, when i'm not crazy exhausted! <div class="by" style="font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-size: 12pt; padding-top: 7px; margin-left: -25px;">Rilset: <span class="ooc" style="border: 1px dashed #888888; padding: 4px; color: #888888; background-color: #dddddd; display: inline-block;">Alright. Thanks, SO!
