Niko waited in silence as Valerion spoke, allowing him to finish and sit down before he spoke again. "He has mentioned a good point there - about out strengths." Niko pointed out, thinking about it. "If we're going to work in a team, I would think that we need to know each other a bit more. How about we introduce ourselves, and what we can do? We'll be able to formulate a better battle strategy this way." He said, then paused, pushing his dark blond hair back from his eyes. One of the plaits holding it back from his face had unravelled. "So, I'm Nikolaus. I'm pretty good with one-handed swords, normally dual wielding, and I'm a good shot with the bow." "He's a very good diplomat too." Leo spoke up, aiming a grin at Niko, who couldn't disagree. This meeting wasn't the first time he'd attempted to calm a heated situation, and it certainly wasn't going to be the last. He was just glad there were a few others in the room that were as level-headed as he was. "Whereas I," Leo continued, sitting up in his chair to grin around at the rest of the room. "I'm more interested in mischief through words than peace." "Don't I know it." Niko muttered as he sat down. "I'm Leonidas - call me Leo. I'm pretty damn good with this beauty here -" he waved a hand towards his war hammer, laid on the table. "But my true talents lay in smithing and inventing. I'll make you pretty much anything you can think of... For the right price, that is." He finished, a sparkle in his dark eyes as he surveyed the room. Niko couldn't help but smile, hoping the others would follow suit in these more civil introductions. The tension had appeared to relax, at least.
