Campaign Thread V: Boobies in the Basement Make up for an Otherwise Dull Day

[Flay Crimsonwind]

Zach will politely excuse himself to find the others, asking that Bob meet them by the new guildhouse whenever he's free. He runs back to the guildhouse, hoping that someone will still be there. He finds himself inexplicably angry. "Eleven...." he mutters, under his breath.

Your new digs are leaking poison fog and surrounded by dwarves in the feudal equivalent of hazmat suits.

Theyre sweeping up about 4 tons of dead spiders

"Well, everything looks to be in order.

Excuse me!" He tries to hail one of the hazmat dwarves shoveling corpses without approaching the domicile too closely. "Any idea where the other guildsmen living here went before..... well alright, probably after you killed the spiders?"

[RobbyPants]

"WHEN WERE YOU THROWING ACID?"

"Whaaa? Who said anything about acid? I said 'and such'. Pointy things and such."

Teo seems to be less-than-concious. Damn ale.

"Yeah we recommended a local restaurant they could hang out at. "

They give you the address as a coughing spider rears up and vows revenge in a squeaky voice before expiring.  Revenge for his 11 siblings.  Damn spiders...

"Well don't throw no and such neither.  Here's yer special hot dwarf ale.  On da house if you give us a good review." 


It tastes like boiled leather and fire.  Your guess it's 50% alcohol at least.  And yet it somehow seems to taste better warm, or at least you assume since you haven't had it cold.

"This is amazing! It tastes like boiled leather and fire! What's your secret?

Yeah, I'll tell people I like it."

Mustave stops with one before he kills himself.

"*cough* Do you have any bread?"

[bhu]

"Hmmm....we were going for a sort of beefy charcoal taste...we'll have to adjust teh recipe a lil."

*hugs* "thanks."

"We got hard tack biscuits on sale, rye, sourdough, and grill bread."

Zach twitches, cursing out "exterminate..." before smiling and thanking the dwarves, complimenting their efforts, and dashing off to the restaurant.

[bhu]

Those of you at the restaurant not amuse by the dryads antics notice a hurried Zach arrive.

[RobbyPants]

"'Sup, Zach? Wanna try some fire-leather ale? It's free if you tell people you like it."

[Nanshork]

"I have fish!"

[Monotremeancer]

The mutton is quite good as well. How did your quest go?

[radmelon]

"And they havsh alel. Lotsh of it."

[Flay Crimsonwind]

"Almost stopped short, then started again. We were planning on diving into the sewers when a deputy stopped us. For some reason, he thought we looked suspicious climbing into a sewer grate...

Anyways, we're getting Nervous Bob to guide us down there. There will be Wraiths, which is fun because I haven't killed one of them yet. I came hoping you'd all want to come down again to clear this out faster; we'll be meeting at the now thoroughly gassed guild-house once Bob is ready.

...... Maybe some later, Mustave, if the sewers are as I remember them. How've you all been?"

[bhu]

Your new Dryad companion says they've been having a great time.  Then sucks a watermelon dry via fangs, hands the husk to a waiter and says 'burn this'.  Everyone seems to be taking it pretty much in stride...

[RobbyPants]

@Zach

"If he doesn't burn it, I get in trouble for throwing knives. Like that makes any sense.

What about sewer wraiths?"

[VennDygrem]

"Is this an official invitation to perform work for the Guild? If so, I formally accept! If not, I shall wait for the opportunity to prove myself worthy of joining your institution."

[Flay Crimsonwind]

"I like you, metal-man! I would be glad if you could accompany us.

"Apparently wraiths infest the sewers. I only vaguely understand them, but we've killed many odd things, so I have a good deal of falsely-earned confidence."

[RobbyPants]

@Zach

"So, are we returning to the sewers when the deputies aren't looking, or something?"

[VennDygrem]

"Please, call me Bigsley. I think I may be able to help quite well with this wraith situation. You see, they cannot drain my lifeforce the way they can with a normal living being, so I need only focus their attention on myself."
