Vurbag spills his guts

Once out a'da jail, me go and find Liberaters. Me am not having hard time, as am I orc and we gud for fightin'. An' me being a cleric of dark god help. Me am good in battle, so me quickly promoted into da group. One day me get told to meet sum very impurtant person at a metting and so me go early, so as not to be late.
In a'da window, me am seeing an elve talkin' to sum peeple, then place a cap on his head and whoosh, he turns inta Asper. Me told that me am to kill noble, work wit' some fellas to get 'er done. Me no given name of nuble yet.


Poon: I sold the loot. I really should start taking a fee for all the leg work that I do. Anyway, who took the three Potions labled Cure Light Wounds?

Robhim: WE sold the loot, as a group. Remember? I think Brennel and Lukas each took one. The third's in the air still.

Poon: All you did was carry. I talked the guy into buying the armor with the blood on it. :-)

Lukas: Yes, yes you talked him into buying that one piece of armor, good for you. And yes I'll take the potion, even if I already have a wand of the spell. Remind me to get that wand Identified so I know how many charges are left.

Reporting to Talen

Lukas: Finding out that Talen trusts Harlann is. . . interesting. I hope nothing bad comes of that trust. We've also been hired to retrieve a powerful magic item for him. We've been asked to allow him to cast a Geas on each of us to ensure the secrecy of the mission. I'd have taken the geas without extra pay but since he's offering I see no reason to refuse the extra money. Resources for a warlock are expensive. We're to report in after the Janus Raid.

Oh, and he got rid of the Velsharoonian Mark of Injustice. Now I don't need to wear a hat anymore. But since I have it, I might as well wear it.

I'm not completely sure of his motives, but he seems better than some of the people that we have met.

Reporting to Harlann

Lukas: Harlann is a still. . . irritating. He seems to have some major trust issues. Although I'd probably check to make sure that I had actually changed my faith if I were him. I might have been a little more discrete about the fact that I was doing so. Still strikes me as one of the guys to throw in with if everything falls to whit.

A special message for Lukas

Lukas: A message? For me? Why, I'm so glad that the evil bastard has decided to give me a message, embare-ass-ing me in front of the watch! Although I suppose it's good news that the Explosive Runes and Sepia Snake Sigil were dispelled by Ruha. And that Janus tried to kill me with a letter. I must remember to thank her for dispelling those. It's a very clear message, even if it's a wordless one.

Creepy crawlies in the evil basement

Lukas: Skeletons, Larger Skeletons and a skeleton that's not a normal skeleton, that casts spells. I'm glad we have a cleric along, Poon really helped in getting rid of the skeletons. Now we're left dealing with a decently potent caster who's trapped in a corner. That Poon can't turn.

It might come down to lightning bolting his ass or summoning a monster or three to pound on him. Or just soaking up the spells till he runs out.

Poor poon, I know how he feels.

Poon: F#$% you! I got no legs!

Lukas: And I've had both my legs AND my arms withered like that! I'm sympathyzing with you not mocking you!

Poon: Was that part of your evil rituals to join this sick cult?

Lukas: No, it happened while fighting a Kocraken. A demon torturer from the abyss, or maybe a devil from the nine hells. And it happened nowhere near here. The spell wears off after a couple of minutes, no more than 20, as far as I know. We'll keep you alive till you get your legs back. (OOC: Lukas would know the duration, he did manage to spellcraft it when he got hit by it. As you probably remember.) Now shut up and keep shooting it!
