LoF: The Carrion King; The Second Ambush

[Duniagdra]

Finding everyone in agreement, you head for Father Zastoran's room and he's well moved in. You inform him that you're in need of some potions and he gives each of you one CMW.

You all leave the monastery and head for town. The trip is quiet and uneventful. It's early yet, the sun's been up only a short while. The town is still waking up. You all enter the broken down building that was on the map you made and find someone inside. A female elf in cleric's vestments is currently hunkered down in the corner where the last remaining portion of a roof offers cover. She eyes you warily, but seems in good health.

Currently all your eyes are on her and she on all of you.

OUT-OF-CHARACTER:    Let's have a bit of role play introducing the new player to the team. It's up to your role play to bring her into the group or not.

Ox does not try to hide his surprise at the Elven lady...
“What is a beautiful lass like you doing in this arid place?” He asks of the Elven lady

[Twiglet]

“I seek a lost companion and some good in the world. If I cannot find good I will try to create some. There is no question I will find the lost companion. I will never stop looking. Here, this elf looks in need of aid. Shall we go to her?”

[Duniagdra]

OUT-OF-CHARACTER:    Sorry, forgot to update the map when I added our new player.

“I seek a lost companion and some good in the world. If I cannot find good I will try to create some. There is no question I will find the lost companion. I will never stop looking. Here, this elf looks in need of aid. Shall we go to her?”

“Lost companion? In this place?” Ox says, suspiciously. “Would that be Haleen you're looking for?” He asks.

Kroft watches the stranger carefully, keeping his hand near his blade. Meeting a benevolent person here is very unexpected. Still, she does deserve at least a chance of convincing them of her intentions. Kroft closely observes her reactions and responses to the team's questions.

[Benji]

When Ox mentions Haleen's name, Laron perks up a bit and looks closer at the stranger to see if he recognises her.

[Twiglet]

THINKING: Why would he ask of Haleen? How much do they know of me? How much can I tell them? I must be careful but they do seem alright. “Haleen? Yes, I seek Haleen. Why do you ask? What do you know of her?”

[admin]

“Well, you are not the only one looking for Her.... Laron and I are also seeking her. She means a lot to the both of us...”

“Alas, this place is held by Gnolls... we were about to setup an ambush to whittle their numbers down a bit... You can either join us, or stay hidden” Ox suggests

[Twiglet]

“At least some of you share my goals and you seem right to me. Whittling gnolls sounds like a good hone for my sword. I am in if you will have me.”

[Arpat]

"Well, it seems we are not the only ones looking around then!"
Erin introduces herself "I am Erin, Erin Ookapala, nice to meet you!"

[Twiglet]

“And I am Elisandra cleric of Iomedae. Hail and well met Erin!”

[admin]

“I be Ox, Elisandra cleric of Iomedae...” Ox smiles his Half-Orc smile

[tdsprouse]

“I'm Simi, paladin of Abadar, it would be an honor to have you join us.”

[Duniagdra]

With introductions complete, you set to the task you planned, bringing Eli up to speed.

OUT-OF-CHARACTER:    Let me know if there are any changes to positioning. 150 XP for participation to each.
