Start of #Sharn buffer: Wed Jan 17 15:56:16 2007* Now talking in #Sharn * ChanServ changes topic to 'Init Order: Sev, Gib, Aurora, Aun, and Aurelis' * ChanServ sets mode: +ntr-o NovaSeaker * ChanServ sets mode: +o NovaSeaker * Yonjuuni has joined #Sharn * Mechazawa has joined #sharn * Mechazawa is now known as Mikael Okay Not sure if we're actually going to get in character but just discuss how you two get in the game Anywho Yon, after about a week of Aurelis's shop being closed and you starting to get worried, you see a gnome walk up to his door, and you're pretty sure you saw the same gnome come around the day before. Only this time the gnome is kinda futzing around with the door to the shop. what is Marianysa likely to do in that situation? The obvious answer is to follow the gnome. Follow him where? Looks like you have enough time to go out and ask him something before he gets inside. Or see if he's a friend of Aurelis or something Oh, he's going in? yes Scratch that. I'm going to ask him if he knows the owner, then. * NovaSeaker nods. We can probably roleplay this... * Yonjuuni is now known as Marianysa [Marianysa is minding her shop and business is slow, when she sees a gnome across the bridge. It looks like he's trying to enter Aurelis's shop.] * Marianysa approaches the gnome from behind, and says loudly and cheerfully "Hi! The store's closed. Are you a friend of the owner?" * Mikael turns, a very slight individual, the top of his wildly-white haired head rotates as if on a pivot. A steely eyed gnome looks up supiciously, bringing a gloved hand up to his chin as he examines the creature before him. "Are you?" (Hello?) (sorry, phone) * Marianysa folds her arms. "You could say that." "And have you seen him around?" Haven't seen him in over a week, since he closed the store. "so he hasn't been home? He lives upstairs, correct?" That's right. * Marianysa starts to sound a little excited. "Are you an Inquisitive? Did something happen?" "I'm someone that wants to see him." Well, I don't know where he is, unfortunately. "would you like me to find him?" Well yes! I'm worried, it's not like him to vanish like this! "Vanished, hrmm?" "I can find him for you, for a nominal fee." ...wait a second, why am I paying you when you're looking for him already? (As this falls under business ventures, this cost is part of your abstracted expenses) "Well, you seem quite desperate to find him, no?" "If you don't want to, I've got other things I must attend to.." * Marianysa frowns. "Alright, you've got a deal." * Mikael rubs his palms together. Excellent." But I'm coming with you, to make sure this isn't a scam! "Well, yes, the fee is for your own accompaniment, madame." * Mikael is wearing a dusty-blue colored blazer that along with his gloves covers his entire torso. On his very slight legs are what appears to be a very tiny pair of golden pantaloons. Well, that's settled then! So...what do we do? "Perhaps it would be a good point to just come along and watch me work, no?" [With that Mikael and Marianysa set off to find the missing shopkeep.] [Session End.] * Mikael has left #sharn * Marianysa is now known as Yonjuuni * Yonjuuni has left #Sharn End of #Sharn buffer Wed Jan 17 15:56:16 2007
