I look at them oddly, wondering how they know who I am.

"What isss it you requessst of me?" with a mild harsh tone.

Johan and Alastar

A faint knock comes at the door, followed by another several seconds later. Another moment passes, and again there is a knock on the door.

I go over to the door.. are there any cracks in it?

"Nothing too great... we would ask to speak with you, in private. Please, come with us," the other one says coldly, with a slight smile.

"Ssh," I hiss at Alastar, putting my ear to the door.

(listen check?)

Yes. You can make out a robed and hooded man, his face concealed. Again he knocks.

POST EDITED

I silence myself, and do not respon to the robed figures.

"Are you under the impression that I have a great trust of humans? If you are unwilling to tell me the nature of your need, You will recieve no aid from me. Either tell me the nature of your request or get out of my way."

You hear nothing out of the ordinary.

The man waits for another minute, then turns and walks away briskly.

The two men glance at each other and the first one states, "You misunderstand. We are not making any request of you. You will come with us."

Each draws a small mace hidden in their cloaks to emphasize their point.

(To slash or to run...)

I'm going to run towards the guy I was tailing as fast as my legs can carry me.

Your Initiative: 10
Theirs: 7

You bolt past them while they are caught off guard. The man you were following is gone. The men begin to give chase.

I lead them outside the city limits and then, after what I feel is a safe enough distance, turn and stop to face them.

I Draw my two Scimitars and call forth my Viper.

"Now we are on my grounds..."

as soon as they are in range:

Scimitars on nearest opponent
18+3 = 21 (Natural Critica) Damage: 10
7+3=10 Damage: 5

Viper on Farthest victim
12+4=16 Damage: 1 + Poison DC 11 Fort (Initial: 1d6 CON. Secondary 1d6 Con)

Dismounting his pony, Ryu enters the crowds, uncaring to their reactions. A pointed wicker hat blocks the sun from his eyes and also covers the majority of his face.

You notice a small disturbance outside of town. Two men appear to be chasing a lizardman with weapons drawn...

You nearly decapitate the first as he parries your other blade. Your viper springs on the second, injecting venom through the man's wrist. Oddly enough, the snake does not gain a very good purchase in his skin, which on closer inspection is now rapidly evaporating. Looking back at the other, you see all that remains is the cloak the man was wearing. There is no evidence of the blood you were sure you saw spewing from his neck. Both seem to have completely disappeared in the span of a few seconds.

He gives chase at a half run, his hand resting on the hilt of his ninja-to. He stops when the cloaked figures do. He readies his sling and lets two bullets fly.

Shot 1: 11 + 3= 14, DMG 2
Shot 2: 14+3 = 17, DMG 1

Ryu watches the shots speed past the phantasms in puzzlement


Edited: 12:39

I recall my snake and head back into town--hiding and looking for the man I spotted earlier, he's bound to return...he may have some answers...

Hide: 11+4=15

Spot: 10+3=13

You see nothing of the man from earlier but you do notice another following you.

Takes this oppertunity to follow the scaled one

Hide: 6 + 4 size = 10
Spot: 13

Christine Verhoeven, recently arrived in Inverness, you've been watching some odd events this morning. First a powerful-looking man dragging a few people into some back alleys, then two cloaked men confronting and chasing a lizardman. Something is up, and you have a suspicion that it involves you...

Following tall, dark and scaly, remaining hidden.

Hide check 16+6 = 22
Spot check 19+1 = 20

As you are following, someone taps you on the shoulder. A relatively wiry man asks, "Verhoeven? I am Ian. I would have a word with you concerning the day's events. Please, come with me." He motions towards a side alley. This Ian fellow seems sincere, but his dark cloak and leather armor might suggest otherwise.

NOTE:

Not to break up the story thus far, but I feel it important to make this note here. Now that I've got more of a feel for how this is going to work, here's how it works:

Once you're in the game, simply post some action your character does if you want to get involved again. Obviously I can't monitor everyone that's online 24/7, so if you're here to continue the story, make sure I know. If nothing involving your character has been posted in awhile, I will stop advancing your portion of the adventure until you return and concentrate on others who are online. I have designed this so you can drop off pretty much wherever and pick it up as soon as you're awake/available again. Of course, that applies to me as well so I may not respond until I have finished with that silly holdover you mortals know as "s l e e p".

Alastar paces back and forth. He is not comfortable being held in a locked house, not being able to contact the outside world... And he was not really comfortable having people hunting him.

"Oh I bet it is the catholics... My theories on magic do not really match their dogma" He said
