Topic: Assassin Campaign (redux)
Subject: Satisfactory??? I really don't know...
When the list of targets was presented for their perusal, Whisper said nothing; he simply raised an eyebrow and, after a cursory review, let his violet eyes return to Volke for an instant… Quite the ambitious operation, then, he mused to himself, all high-profile, high-value targets… the king of the realm amongst them, no less… The half-elf’s gaze flitted between his new ‘partners’, then; his mind assessing and sorting details of both the group’s members, the particulars of the contracts, and how best they might be fulfilled. There would be need for some serious coordination and planning amongst the group, of course, and, with luck, all among them would be professional enough to set aside their intrinsic solitary natures to accomplish the tasks at hand… The various skills and capabilities to be found in this group would work to their mutual advantage if they could, perhaps, find the most synergetic formulas, there, and apply them properly…
“I have a few questions,” Miriel said just as Whisper’s gaze fell on her, “How and where in the city is Shensing inserting us? How much time do we have to complete the list? What proof will satisfy you that we've made the kills?” She paused for a moment before adding with a smile, "And, of course, you haven't said how and how much you will be compensating us for completing this project."
Whisper couldn’t help but let a faint smile play on his lips, now… All questions that require answers before the job is truly considered, let alone undertaken… and his eyes let her go, returning to Volke as he awaited the answers.
“Shensing will be inserting you into the River quarter,” the masked elf answered without so much as looking at any of them, “where it can be assumed you would have just come off of a ship…”
Simple enough, the bowman thought, Perhaps a little too simple and straight forward but workable…
“As for time, you have a very strict...” Volke looks over at an hourglass that is on a table in the corner of the tent, “One month, twenty days, and 12 hours. This will put you in the month of Wealsun, on the eve of Richfest…”
Whisper’s brow spiked again and a faint scowl started to form on his lips at this… That’s all? With targets such as these? Less than two months? There’s a King on this list, by Vara’s red eyes! It could take that amount of time to properly execute that one hit!… but he said nothing aloud. A bit of the respect that he’d had for this Volke, though, had just slipped away – not that he mourned the loss of it, most of what he had to begin with was based on reputation and word of mouth as opposed to any actual knowledge or familiarity with the elf – and Whisper let his eyes slide away from Volke to gauge the reactions of the others to this very short time-frame as the “Master” continued.
His violet gaze only returned to Volke when the elf tossed the bags containing what the elf apparently considered a suitable advance. Whisper caught the one tossed in his direction, secreted it away in a belt pouch, and let his scowl deepen a bit more as the “Master” explained what was contained within… An ioun stone to stave of thirst and hunger in a city where there will be plenty of both and a ring that allows you to interrupt whenever the whim may take you? Useless… It was at this moment that Whisper started to think he had made a mistake in answering Volke’s summons and considered returning the “advance” to the elf before turning and leaving the tent and returning to his wanderings. In fact, he took a step back towards the tent-flap just in case the consideration became more than that, but he waited to hear what else the masked elf might say before acting on that impulse.
“…of course,” Volke said, “upon completion of the invasion, should you wish to receive the other portion of your payment, I advise you come back to the city and see me as king…”
If ever king you become, Whisper mused silently.
“…at which point you will each receive gold, slaves, property, and two major magical items of your choosing. As well as anything you find during your mission. Satisfactory?”
Slaves and property… more things for which I have no want or need. Gold, though, and items of a magical nature… perhaps…
“We shall see, I suppose,” Whisper answered softly as he turned and made to leave the tent with little more acknowledgement to Volke than he had given any of them while they were in his presence. With nothing else to say and not so much as a look back, the half-elven sniper left the “Master’s” tent and, still deliberating whether or not he’d truly accept this job, stalked across the camp to where his horse was hitched and waited… I’ll hear what the others might say before I make my own decision, he decided.

Topic: Zombies in Chicago Q&A
Subject: Yup...
...I'm catching up with other games, waiting on Grugg, doodling/drawing some zombie stuff, and trying to do my "real job" all at once, myself...
I'm flexible, either way, though... can wrap up the collab with Gruggles, add a little response to Meri's latest, and get us across the street, etc, or you can go ahead and move us ahead and the rest can be backpostiness.

Topic: Continuing Where We Last Left Off
Subject: ...
Flynn was more than a little glad that his spell had worked the way he hoped; happier still that Kilgim’s prayer had provided another layer and level of protection, and that Maximus’s blade was able to inexorably sever the strings that animated the spider-demoness’ minions - given what had happened, it must have been the same sort of demon from the legend he’d recalled, mustn’t it?. The time to revel in the party’s minor victory, though, was not now…
"Dos strings be tracks dat once be gone I canna follow. We mus' be off," Char growled from near by as Flynn, like the rest, did what he could to remove or ignore any of the gore that had splattered them with the puppeteer’s retreat.
The bard nodded his agreement, noticing at the same instant that Dapple had been loathe to wait for the general consensus and was already whispering away in pursuit of the retreating threads.
"Again, parlor tricks,” Valentine sneered in derision, “If this thing had any real power and malevolence we would be dead. It's either toying with us, needs us for something, or it really doesn't have the outright capability to harm us. Either way we need to follow it. Time is not waiting around for us.
It appears besides our nerves and minor battle wounds, we're still good as new. If it can't scare us it loses the majority of it's power. That is the cornerstone of Necromancy, and the primary reason I refuse to engage in such a practice."
“Agreed on all counts, friends,” the bard grinned as he moved toward the doorway which the little thief had recently slipped by, “though I doubt what we deal with here is anything as simple as necromancy alone. No time for debate or discussion, though…”
Flynn pushed a blood-soaked braid behind his ear, then, shook the ichor from his fingers, and, keeping his beloved fiddle in his left hand while resting his right on the hilt of his scimitar, turned and looked back at the rest, capturing the scene in his mind so that he might later write it down. “Like any spider,” he said before following Dapple’s path deeper into the temple’s interior, “I imagine this one has only been put off it’s prey for a short while… Twould behoove us, I think, to find her before she finds us again, hm?”
((OOC: Sorry for the short post and long delay… just a wee bit brain-fried recently… Flynn’s off in Dapple’s wake, of course…))

Yeah... piling food on the wounded probably ain't such a good or sanitary idea...
I'm thinking we load backpacks and bags with as much as we can (canned food, rice, etc... staples/essentials/cammping type stuff) to get the group through a day or three, at least... given the smell, potetnial zombie attacks, etc, we probably wanna make a "mad dash" (open pack, deep breath, sprint the aisles sweeping stuff in, and then back outside)... *shrug*
Contemplating... writing...

Well, she's not quite as damaged as she should be given her heritage, boss... I think her mother had a hand in tempering that kind of thing... but I love her anyway.

Subject: I know that feeling, Reep...
...glad you're making it through, though.
Haven't finished a post for Whisper, yet, but I'm thinking along the same lines. Whisper doesn't say much, of course, but, given the targets on the list, he'll definitely be wondering about compensation... *nods* ... and then he'll be wondering in which order these marks would be best taken...

Having a wee bit of difficulty with GoogleDocs but I'm sure it's just this clunky old laptop of mine... I'll see if I can't grab the file at work a bit later, though.
Try to have a post for you soon.

Subject: Waaaaaiiitaminit!!!
If Grugg is Olan's son, and Eol is Grugg's momma, does that mean that I'm Olan's baby-mamma? 
OMG!!! Dude, I love you and everything, but that's just kinda ridiculous!!!
Oh, btw, Gruggles... I'd be interested in a collab between Father Ted and Murph if for nothing other that s#!^s and giggles (and, perhaps, setting up a plan Murph has for later) if you're interested, at all... Can pick up with Murph's intro, if you like, and run from there.
Lemme know.

...a GM/Narrator bump if everyone else is... Probably have some bits and pieces I can work in there for Murph... Convos with Teddy and Alaster, worried looks in Amber, Emily, and Mac's direction, gathering the wheelbarrow, and rolling the troupe out, etc... but I wouldn't be terribly upset if you moved us along, either, boss.

Topic: The Skill Check Game
Subject: EPIC success!
The jump check was so successful that the blinds shut themselves out of sheer awe! The tumble check was pointless after that but, also, successful... if it matters.
I roll a use rope check to see if I'm able to hog-tie malek and take him back to the basement of the Inn for the dreaded fousand facelick torture... hide from the facelick indeed... hmph!
