Campaign Thread VI: Hippos are cute until you realize they poop...

"Yeah, we just tried to ask her a question and she flipped. For all we know she's answering our question, but I doubt it."

[Flay Crimsonwind]

Zach approaches, trying not to laugh. "Unfortunately, I only speak Japanese. I'll try another house." Backing off from the scene, he approaches another door.

[RobbyPants]

"Do any of you speak orcish?"

"I speak goblin, but I don't know if that helps."

Mustave approaches her and asks in goblin:

"Do you speak goblin?"

[bhu]

She looks at you like  a piece of raw meat and jabbers more in Orc.

[bhu]

Zach approaches, trying not to laugh. "Unfortunately, I only speak Japanese. I'll try another house." Backing off from the scene, he approaches another door.

The door is answered by a naked goblinoid with a massive erection, a human girl giggling in his arms, and a fig in his ass.

"Your arrival is ill timed."

[jojolagger]

While Ceus stays back to inspect the potential employees, Lord Zandak goes with the main group.

Arriving, Zandak will try to use the language indepentant Art of Telepathy to communicate with the Orc, strangely letting the voice through as well.
To Orc: Excuse me, What seems to be the problem?
For All: "Wizard, Your seat is empty!"

Ceus will inform the potential employees to drop their mental defenses and will detect thoughts on them, followed by leading their thoughts with questions. This is used to determine their loyalty, not find out petty facts about them.
Also: Finally, a chance for the voice to be wonderfully meta

[Flay Crimsonwind]

"Perhaps. Has anyone in your home been bitten by a zombie? Attacks have been noted in the area; I am checking for those who might need assistance.

"You obviously are not needing. I'll leave you to your enjoyment."

[bhu]

"Perhaps. Has anyone in your home been bitten by a zombie? Attacks have been noted in the area; I am checking for those who might need assistance.

"You obviously are not needing. I'll leave you to your enjoyment."

"Thank you"

SLAM!

They all seem fairly similar.  They resent the mental intrusion, but since other Guilds have discriminated against them based on gender or imposed unduly on them why would you be any different.

"I won't be able to talk to her, but maybe I can figure out what the hell she's babbling about."

Mustave casts Comprehend Languages.

*kkkk*...ignorant goddamn pigfucking slack-balled monkey lovers I hope you all fucking die and take the zombies with you." 


she notice you

"Fuck you starin' at boy?  You don't take them eyes off my tits you'll be wearin' one in your ass."

[RobbyPants]

Mustave looks away.

"Don't look at her tits. It makes her angry."

[bhu]

she walks inside and slams the door.  You sort of begin to understand why this woman and her child got little in the way of help from neighbors.

[Flay Crimsonwind]

Zach returns from his attempt. "No wonder the place is a hole. Despite best intentions, I believe we aren't going to find anyone here... We might as well set up..." He looks back and forth without saying much, wondering what might be watching and listening.

[bhu]

Jojo:

You have the following would be employees:

Nana: Greatclub wielding middle aged Half Giantess.  Obvious veteran.  Obviously horny for smaller men.

Jeanette: Rapier wielding swashbuckling type.  Elf.  Finely waxed mustache despite being a girl.

Spork: Young female dragonborn wearing a shirt that says "Yes I'm a snake that has tits, fucking get over it already."

Pashtu: Gnoll dominatrix (at least you assume so given her dress).

Bitter Fern: Harpy mercenary.

Black Death: Scorpionfolk Sorceress.

Driinka: Dwarven carpenter/siege artisan/plumber/fixit person.

Hissssssh: Yuan Ti Pervert.  She says that with the assumption you know what she means and it should be impressive.

Null: Odd humanoid who claims to not require food or water and has no bodily orifices besides a mouth.  You know cause she showed you. 

Madame Evil: Brain in a jar resting atop a headless frankenstein body.

[bhu]

Sir Shadow: Saying yes to the massage? 

Flay and co: How are you guys setting up?

[Sir Shadow]

Bartholemeow politely declines to be massaged and isn't in the mood for suspicious snacks. Deciphering notes is serious business.

[RobbyPants]

Flay and co: How are you guys setting up?

Mustave is not sure what's been going on before he got there, so he's following Zach's lead at this point.

[Flay Crimsonwind]

"Anywho, let's reconvene in the house..."

After walking back into the girl's home, he sits and crosses his arms in his sleeves. "So, they travel through the sewer. This is bad. But they said they would be returning to claim the mother. So, this is good. My plan was just to hide out in here, wait for nightfall, and slay all but one when they enter. We could use the last to show us where our foe has set up.... since he got rid of us so easily last time. And we need to find out how he was observing us..."

[RobbyPants]

"Sounds like a plan!"
