Adventures in the Waste:- Adventure 4-5 players, first come first served!

[Wensleydale]

[ic]"Extremely valuable, but I doubt you could use it." She pulls a long scroll from a bag on her back, muttering in elven.

"Aha! This is it."

She unrolls it, revealing what looks like some kind of complicated engine. Complex elven script annotates it, unreadable even to those of you who can speak it, and visible on the engine are what looks like a model of the solar system and a glass sphere holding some kind of liquid.

"It is... useful."
[/ic]

[Darkxarth]

[ic=Blackjack]"Hold on." Blackjack interrupts, "how big is this thingy here?  You may not have noticed, but I'm not exactly a giant.  And these other guys, don't get me wrong fellas, don't look like they'll be winnin' any weight-liftin' competitions."[/ic]

[ooc]Hmm... solar system... liquid... Elven script... very interesting...[/ooc]

[Wensleydale]

[ic]"Oh, not all that big. And anyhow, I have this to assist you. It can create invisible disks of force."

She pulls out what appears to be a long handle.

"It doesn't require any skill - just press the button once per day, and the disk will appear behind it. You can pull it along easily, it's weightless."
[/ic]

[ooc]
Basically a wand that can create a Tenser's Floating Disk once per day.
[/ooc]

[Darkxarth]

[ic=Blackjack]"Ah, right." Blackjack grabs the handle, "I'll just carry this."  He tucks the handle in his belt, careful not to bump the button.  "So, now that that's settled, what are the details of this particular 'quest,' as it were.  Your poster said 'great glory and riches.'  Just how great are we talkin' here?"[/ic]

[ooc]Blackjack is a greedy little pain-in-the-neck, isn't he?  Oh well, I have too much free time on my hands, maybe I should give the others a chance to comment...[/ooc]

[Captain Obvious]

[ic=Jeroen] Somewhat suprised by the gross actions of a people he always considered to be very proper, Jeroen follows the old elf through the doo and surveys those already there. "Greetings to you all. I am Jeroen, and i presume you to be Limuet?" Looking towards blackjack, " You I already know, or at least have heard of you, but who might you two be? " He watches them carefully, but curteously.[/ic]

[Darkxarth]

[ic=Blackjack]"Oh, dragon dung!" Blackjack thinks, "This guy's heard of me?  Where does a guy like that here about a guy like me?  I hope he's not some sort of bounty hunter.  Well, now I can't let him out of my sight until I find out what the heck is going on."

"Clearly a round of introductions is necessary," he says, "I go by Blackjack, I am a *ahem* recoverer of goods, as it were."[/ic]

[Endless_Helix]

[ic=Ded]
Ded steps though the door, after this inital exchange, letting everyone scout out the position for him. He submits to the search and settles to listen.

[brainface]

[ic=Wastep]
Wastep pulls the hood of his cloak down to reveal his face.
"Wastep."
"Sage."
He quickly turns his attention back to Limuet and the thuggish elves.

[Captain Obvious]

[ic=Jeroen] " I am Jeroen as i said. I am just a pilgrim. Wandering where i am needed. " Notices Wastep's bright green eyes and is intruiged. [/ic]

[Darkxarth]

[ic=Blackjack]"Just a pilgrim, eh?" Blackjack thinks, "well, I'm not fooled, not for an instant.  There must be something more to him than that.  Especially if he knows who I am."

"And that leaves the gentleman who just walked in, whom I believe is named Ded, correct?  So, now that the formalities are over, let's get on with this, shall we?  I believe we were talking about payment?"[/ic]

[ooc]Trying out a different color for Blackjack's thoughts.  Looks better than the green I was using.[/ooc]

[Endless_Helix]

[ic=Ded]
"My name is Ded. I follow my goddess in all things. This is where I must be."

Ded shifts into a more defenible postion in his chair, preparing for any sort of trouble. [/ic]

[Darkxarth]

[ic=Blackjack]"Ha, I was right.  I thought I recognized him.  Small world."

"Right.  Well, now that we're all nice and chummy with each other, let's get back to the business at hand, shall we?  After all, I'm sure our good Elf friend is anxious to retrieve her whatever-it-is." he adds sarcastically.[/ic]

[brainface]

[ic=Wastep]
"Payment, yes. But perhaps first, some details of what is between us and your useful object to cause many to lose their lives, as the poster gladly proclaims. That could affect our fee, I believe."
Wastep taps the side of his collected poster.

[ooc]I'm copying your genius, Darkxarth.[/ooc]

[Darkxarth]

[ic=Blackjack]"Well, yeah, there's that too, I guess." Blackjack says.

"Dang.  When are we going to get to the money." he thinks.[/ic]

[ooc]Eh?  My genius?  Now I'm confused...[/ooc]
