RobBadener Posted March 26 Clone Share Posted March 26 "Dear Lady, I'm certain my companions and I are up for the task, however I'm afraid that we have no rogue among us talented at picking locks. And even if we did, I would be unable in good conscience to promise that there would be no damage to property within. I can promise that we would do our best to minimize any such damage, but fighting, should it come to that, carries the risk of material damage inherently. As for the remuneration offered, I find it quite satisfactory, however I will have to confer with my comrades in arms to assure that we are in concensus on the matter," answers Vestas. The cleric turns to the others, "What say ye? Or would you prefer to speak in private?" Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonedzep Posted March 26 Clone Share Posted March 26 (edited) "Greetings to you" is the answer provided to the approach of Vestas. " my name is Muad'dib" followed by a respectful nod of his head. Then, turning to the side where the conversation is taking place continues " I was indeed caught by the matter you are discussing at the table... and, with all due respect, looks like you have enough power to defend yourselves, but you're running short on something important too: a little mouse to sneak in that dangerous spots of that place."

wapsii Posted March 27 Clone Share Posted March 27 Roland scrutinizes Muad'dib for a moment. "We know only that he claims skills that we lack. We don't know his character nor his motivation." Turning to look directly at Muad'dib Roland begins to question him to measure his reactions. "Why should we trust you, other than your honest answer? Would you swear an oath that while with the party you would do no harmful acts to the party nor harm anyone in the party nor steal from the party. I'll grant you a monument to decide. And present any more justification on why you should join us." Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" This is a world where few can be trusted, and great attention must always be put when a stranger approaches..." he leaves his stool, stands and slowly walks few steps toward the company gathered, removing the clothing he wears around his head to fully unveil his face so that can be seen by everyone. "Nonetheless I hope you trust my words and my intention, I'm no threath. If opportunity arises to fill my pockets in some quest, I'm in. And most importantly, if I'd be joining someone in such hypotetical adventure, I can swear sincerely... I'm not harmin nor betraying whom I'm working with.

Once the discomfort passes, he says, "I empathize with Roland's caution; it is difficult to give trust on words alone at a first meeting.

SCARY WIZARD Posted March 29 Clone Share Posted March 29 (edited) Vanilla could but look from Vestas, to Roland as the two deliberated, and then crack a smile as if to say, "Well, at least you picked the smart ones." When comes the time for her to opine, she says to her companions, "I agree that care needs to be taken..." Then, pausing before she says anything else, she turns to face Muad'dib.
