H131, Day 122, 3 BP (Nuuko, Xianna, Drej, Godsmen)

[Stix]

The two Defiers approach the Foundry, where the massive iron gates stand open. A pair of Godsman guards in polished steel armor stand tall despite their burdens and the miserable weather, blocking the entry with crossed halberds.

"What brings you bashers this way?" one inquires.

[hatchets]

Drej smirks at the guards and glances at Xianna before replying, "To put it simple bashers, looking for berks willing to travel Elysium and who can hold their own." He gazes at the guards a moment and instinctively flexes, it almost seems by now he flexes as a peacock would show their feathers, "Either of you feel up to it?"

[artemis]

Xianna grins, "I think what my posturing friend her is trying to say is that we heard some chant about a bebilith traipsing through the Cage. We thought there may be a well-lanned Godsman we could wigwag with. And, if there are any keen to it, we'd take em with us. If, that is, they can hold their own."

[hatchets]

Drej laughs, "Oh yea, the bebilithe, forgot all about that pile of junk." His gaze focus' back on the guards and a sneer appears on his face.

(OOC eh fuck it, not sure how it works exactly but ill go ahead and try to intimidate em since i got the dang ability)

[hatchets]

soo i have intimidate 6 and get a +1 to it... not sure if that means i did good or bad lol

[Stix]

The guardsman's eyebrows rise higher than thought possible.

"Bebilith? Is that what you said?" He gives pause. "I'm surprised I 'aven't heard that chant meself." He lets up his weapon, and the other guard follows suit, allowing them entry.

[hatchets]

No sooner do the guards move their swords does Drej push his way by, he quickly scans the area for anyone of sure physical prowess, or someone who looks like they might know something. He again flexes and his eyes flare. (IF he notices nothing he glances at Xianna seeing if she has found something)

[TheGratefulNed]

A very tall, black-skinned humanoid is walking away from the Foundry toward the main gate. Seeing the two guards with crossed halberds, the white-haired elf waits to see what was happening. He just catches the tail of Xianna's inquiry and hangs back, just inside the gates.

When they finally uncross their polearms Nuuko nods to the Defiers. A raspy, oddly-accented voice addresses them, "not sure what a bebilith is, but I heard ya say you're looking for someone to join you in looking for it?" As he speaks, he mindlessly rests his hands on two of the sword hilts at his waist.

[artemis]

Xianna twirls around to see where the funny accent came from. She sizes Nuuko up. "Well if ya kin handle them chivs cutter, and if I won't have to drag you around with your guts hanging out, you're welcome to join us." Xianna states with a flick of her tongue.

[hatchets]

Turning around and seeing Nuuko, Drej walks over to him and flexes his muscles again.

Intimidaion 6 and I get a +1
[dice=20]

(OOC: Psh its going to be habit now for me to just roll the hell outta that when I am dealing with anyone hehe, still if someone can tell me how it works exactly I would love to know if I pass or fail after I roll it lol)

He peers at Nuuko, "Who might you be cutter?"[rand=22885284500185360637687652355804539787374012083897189197771842195]

[exile]

(OOC: In this case it makes no difference. You can not use the out of combat function of intimidate on player controlled characters. Its strictly for interacting with NPCs.)

[artemis]

(OOC: Yeah so stop it! ;D ;D)

He peers at Nuuko, "Who might you be cutter?"

Nuuko looks down his nose at the posturing, bull-horned man and lets out a derisive snort. Turning his attention to the clearly better disposed tiefling woman he replies, "I'm well versed in sword-play and several other weapons. Though my enemies would do better to fear my arrows," he says tapping the nocks on some oddly-fletched arrows in a quiver at his side. There is also a well made and well used long bow slung across his back.

"Name's Nuuko Half-Moon, a Scout of the Night Runners Tribe." His raspy voice is filled with a distinct pride as he introduces himself.

[artemis]

"Hmmm, Okay Nuuko Half-Moon." Xianna says, as she stares at the pretty collar around his neck. "Seems you won't need no minders."
She turns and scans their surroundings. "We'll need to talk to a high-up, or at least someone well-lanned about this bebilith. I would think a giant, nasty spider thing wouldn't go unnoticed traipsing through the Cage, but eh, plenty of leatherheads around here."

[hatchets]

(OOC Muahaha, never! I will forever roll intimidate beware my intimidation! I wanna be scary! Rawr!)

Drej sizes up Nuuko and snorts, "Sounds fair enough, just know this, I will be awefully disgruntled at having to go out of my way to save your arse. Not that I won't do it, but that I will be disgruntled about it." He turns around and (unless he notices someone who would be in charge) He bellows out, "I am looking for someone who would know a thing or two about a Bebilith storming around the area recently!" He is at full flex, eyes peeled, of course anyone seen running away he is bulldozing right after them to snatch em up.

Intimidation 6 +1
[dice=20] [rand=399423806899446561544448541358852180202527345710078638541224071459]

[hatchets]

(OOC I am betting an 8 isnt very good lol.... I wanna use my roll against Nuuko for intimidation this time! ... unless 8 is good in which case WOOT!)

[TheGratefulNed]

Nuuko ponders who to ask for information about this giant spider bebilith thing they're talking about when the horn-headed man begins shouting the question at no one in particular. Shaking his head he taps both of the Defiers on the shoulder and motions for them to follow him. "I think Ombidias would be a good place to start. He's always got his ear to the ground and pretty much everyone gets along with him. Think I saw him heading toward the main works not too long ago. If he's not to be found, there are one or two others who'd prolly be good to talk to." Without waiting for a response, the tall Prime sets off walking down the path leading from the main gate.

[artemis]

Xianna gives Derej a hard shove, "A little subtlety, eh?" She shakes her head. "And I was worried about me in Elysium." Her eyes flash for a second and she speaks a little softer, yet sterner. "Now scan this, we don't want to pike-off this Ombidias, we need him to twig to us, so just let Nuuko and me do the chattering, savvy?"
She flicks her tongue, gives Drej a smile, and begins to follow Nuuko.

[hatchets]

Drej smirks back at Xianna, "Ya know, I can't ever remember anyone refering to me as quiet when it came to asking questions. I don't much care who tells us what we want, just that we get it out of them." He ponders a minute and follows along, "Although I guess you are right, unless this ombidias likes the loud and proud I might as well pipe it for a minute so we can get him to run his box."

[TheGratefulNed]

Turning his head slightly while still leading toward the towering building of the main foundry, Nuuko adds, "it's also easier to intimidate someone when your head comes more than just slightly above their waist." With a chuckle, he faces his head forward again.
