    Lord Quest IV >>7116436 Cont.

    She's very impressed with your interest of alchemy, she's been studying it for a half year now, but only this month was able to convince her parents that she should acquire some basics for small experiments. Before that she dabbled in herbalism and archery (until her parents found out).

    Pic relevent to her interests, and her parent's fears.

    Ask what experiments she wants to do. Offer out assistance.

    She's rather sexually attractive, even solely considering her interests and gender.

    Hey quest lord, do you think you might make it a little harder for us? Everything seems to be going right all the time right now. It's getting a bit boring to be honest.

    Seems to be two ideas. Looking at her parents, they seem a bit worried by all this alchemical talk, and other conversation has died down some. Continue talking alchemy or segue into something new?

    Current party status:
    You are the Thomas Green. You are a lord of an area with 100 dudes.
    You have a Bard and a Scolarly type dude with you.
    You are at a feast where om nom nom nom nom, and a neighbouring lord has a daughter there, Sarah, that you are (possibly) interested in marrying.
    Also here is the lord himself, Sheff, who you have good relations with.
    Sheff's dog, who saved his life, and is the father of your own dog. Your dog is here too.

    Shit, this legit? Alchemy Ones, that you again?

    You have a bit too much to drink and impress poorly. You're about to say something rather direct regarding Sarah, but the ring warms itself, and your head clears some. Getting hold of yourself you be a bit quieter. Lady Sheff, Sarah and Sylem aren't impressed, although the remaining lords have also drunk deeply and don't notice.

    (Fuck that ring saved you, in a BIG way.)

    You soon are underway for the hunt en route to the small woods just south of the town. Suddenly Erik stops gossiping with the smallfolk of the castle and runs up to you, pulling you aside with some urgency. It appears that Lord Sylem has a dwarf caged in his room, by the name of Urist. It's very likely the same merchant who visited your town earlier. How do you procede?

    you did. And you saved yourself in a big way because of it. You aren't stupid enough to tell a baldric joke though, just loudly ask her father if you can court her, with some innuendo. The ring savd you there, you just were a drunken idiot for a bit. The mother isn't happy with you, but you didn't undo all the work with the alchemy talk with Sarah. Just some. If you didn't have that ring there (the roll was particularly to use it) well, I'd have you kiss your chances of wooing her goodbye. Luckily, the ring saved you.

    Erik states that he's a decent hunter, but is more given to bloodier persuits. Duels, Dogfighting, Melee, Scarbord (a game played with knives and dice, not favoured with nobility outside Sylar estate), etc. He is a gambling man though.

    He was invited more for diplomacy, he is the major millitary power in this region, and although relations with between Sheff and him are polite they're nothing amazing. Lyann is a close friend of Sheff's though.

    Note that he's on the other side of Lyann and that he's a major player in the area, but smalltime in the grand scale of things. It's not like he can bring down the wrath of Erondia on you. Sheff has a decently sized if moderately equipped army, and Lyann (Sheffs mate) also has an army of his own, and is an Erondian lord, same as Sylem. All of these people own much more land then you, but they only have a half dozen knights a piece and a good force of men-at-arms.

    You have a quiet word with Sheff, and Sheff states that apparently the dwarf in question was a criminal and insulted Sylem over something after his arrest. He asks if you can vouch for this dwarf. He won't make a political indecent over it, but he says he's got your back is shit hits the fan. He suggests perhaps talk to Lyann first also, it's an open secret that there is no love lost between Lyann and Sylem.

    Lyann is quiet at first, contemplating the situation, and how he can wrest some gain out of it. You mention the idea of gambling for it, and Lyann likes this idea, and offers to do his best in manipulating Sylem into taking the bet. Alternatively he offers to have some "bandits" free the dwarf on Sylem's route back home, if worst comes to worst. Although Sylem is a sadistic bastard, and if Urist disappeared months ago, it's a wonder the dwarf is still alive.

    You ask if you culd buy the dwarves freedom, but he declines, laughing at you, "You hopped up border-kights, you think you could buy the smallest whim from me?" Continuing on from your talk earlier, you suggest a hunting competition. Maybe Urist as the stakes? Against some cash?

    Sylem snears, saying that a border lordling like yourself could never have enough to wager. Lyann comes over, and unsubtly states that Sylem's still hurting from their last hunt together, when Lyann brought down 3 stags, and Sylem didn't get a kill. He murmurs to you, asking if you can take him? and despite the last hunt's results, not to underestimate him.

    rolled 9, 13 = 22

    >>7117557
    16, nice roll. :)

    >>7117563
    Not so nice roll.

    Total score 21 (with bonuses)

    He has 2d20 with some penalties. Go.

    There's only three difference. HOPEFULLY, that will be enough.

    I wanted people to do the one each, but he got 22, before penalties. 19 after. You narrowly win, with a massive stag, against his slightly less impressive stag kill. You thank you faithful hound for tracking this mighty beast.

    >>7117630
    We rolled 24, which after penalties would be 21, i.e. fucking tie. i.e. roll again. Though this is obviously the DM's quest, I figure I'll roll 4d20 just to see what would've happened - Green's rolls first, Sylem's rolls 2nd.

    >>7117623
    Sylem is obviously irratable, but unwilling to go back on his word with the other lords around. Lyann tells one of his retainers to run back and free Urist.

    And I"m ending it for tonight, it's 4am, I gotta SLEEEEP. Someone archive this on the way out please?
