Elder Scrolls: Terror of the Padomaic

Sharee nodded to the Bosmer man. "Right. I don't mind a good challenge every now and then, but I think it'd be best if we kept this quiet. If you have to talk about it, only mention attacking the Dominion. Funny enough, the Empire doesn't seem to mind too much if its citizens give trouble to a faction they will probably be at war with in a few years. Besides, we'll probably end up attacking Dominion targets at some point." She whispered.

Sharee looked over the Bosmer for a moment, though there wasn't much she could tell about him by appearances, other than that he really needed a tan. The Breton seemed onboard, so she just needed to deal with the newcomer at the moment. "Anyway, for the job, trade ships are our goal. I'm working on the crew, and as for the ship, we will go for a particular frigate in the harbor. A lot of its crew is on shore leave, so as long as we're quick, we should be able to get out with it. You'll get double the standard cut for the first job, and maybe a bit more if you're especially valuable. If you think you can handle it, then I'll tell you where we'll be meeting tonight for the first stages of planning. If you can't handle it, well, you probably wouldn't have been that useful anyways."

No, it's still just the Synod and College of Whispers. There would probably be smaller local organizations, especially farther from the imperial city.

Sharee grinned, glad to see that her first recruit was both eager, and seemingly had experience. Every single recruit for this job didn’t need to be a sailor; as long as she had enough good people, they could teach the rest how to function on a ship. It would probably take a lot of discipline to whip them into shape, but Sharee was very familiar with harsh training regimens. “Good, I need people with sailing experience. I don’t expect everyone I hire to be an expert, so expect to train some of the crew. As far as the plan goes, I already have some things in mind. I just need to finish recruiting so I know what I’ll be working with. If you’re half as good at fighting as I am, then you’ll be just fine. If you’ll just go over your skills with me, I’ll know where I can use you.” Sharee explained, her arrogance shining through her serious demeanor.

As the pair was talking, another individual, a pale-looking Bosmer, approached their table. Sharee glanced around to where he came from and saw Kilith sitting at a table in the corner. They made eye contact, then Kilith pointed to the Bosmer and nodded. It seemed as if he had already started on his part of the deal. Sharee turned her attention to the Bosmer and motioned for the last free seat at the table. “I take it Kilith sent you to me about the job, right? What did he tell you about it?” She asked.

Nytefall's post reminded me of something. The distances and sizes of things in game is not necessarily what we are using for RP. If Tamriel was taken to be literally 1 for 1 with the game worlds, then the entire continent would be smaller than the island of Manhattan (Except Daggerfall, because that game is an outlier). For a trip from the Imprerial City to Leyawiin, I'm guessing it would take several weeks by carriage. Don't worry about the time in this case though, we'll just assume the events in your posts took place a bit earlier.

Kilith glanced over his shoulder and looked across the room at Sharee at another table. She did seem busy with another potential recruit at the moment, though if it was another recruit approaching her, he doubted she would mind being disturbed. He turned back and refocused his attention on the Bosmer. “Yeah, she is quite the drinker, quite fun at parties. I doubt you would have to try as hard with her as you are with the barmaid, if you were so inclined. On the other hand, she can have a real temper if you catch her in the wrong mood. Just…be careful not to cross her. She’s over at that other table talking to that Breton, another potential recruit I’m guessing.”

Sharee leaned back in her seat, crossing her arms and waiting for the Breton to finish answering the question. “Well, as long as you’re not strict on staying on the ‘right’ side of the law, I got something that will be very profitable. I don’t know if you’ve ever sailed before, but I’m sure you can imagine the value of what something like an Aldmeri trading vessel might carry, right? You would be part of the crew that attacks said vessel, and for the first job, you would get double the normal cut.” Sharee said before leaning in closer. She fully intended to attack Imperial vessels as well as Aldmeri ones, but she found that Imperial guards and other Imperial. officials cared little if they overheard her planning attacks on Dominion properties.

“Now, the catch is I don’t have the vessel yet, but you remember the view from shore last night of the harbor? I’m also sure you can imagine how I might want to rectify that issue.” She whispered.

I wouldn't have him hear about the group. It is meant to be low key.

Nice, saw your post Nytefall. Just keep in mind that he will need to make his way to Leyawiin to be recruited.

As far as the conversation with Tagorn goes, I am currently stuck in the position of needing to finish the conversation with Kayal before Sharee can speak with him. I'll give Leon a bit more time, then I'll try to figure out something if he doesn't post.

I've been trying to get a beta key for that, now that I have a computer that can run it.

Kilith crossed his arms, letting out a slight grunt. "Maybe our enemies can't trust us, but we take good care of our clients. You might not be directly working for my organization, but I wouldn't have agreed to recruit for this job if I didn't think there was a good chance for profit. Since you seem interested, the client's name is Sharee-Mar. You might have heard of her; she has something of a reputation around here. I'll be level with you, she's her own brand of crazy. She's as arrogant as an Altmer but has the skills to back it up. If you accept this job, you should expect high risk for high reward. She's worked with my organization many times over the past few years, and if there's one thing I can say about her, it's that she can bring in a lot of gold. You keep yourself alive and you'll end up with a lot of profit, and at the end of the day, what else is there?"

Kilith complied, taking a seat across from the Bosmer. He seemed interested in his armor, which indicated he was familiar with his organization in some respect. "Well, if you know what it means to wear this armor, then you know where I got it from. No need to be any more...specific on that in a place like this. Suffice to say that I am the head of a local organization, and one of my trusted clients has informed me that she needs good people for an upcoming job. Now, let's just say, hypothetically, that the value of what this job entails would be around the same as the contents of an entire galleon full of trade goods, and that the cut one would receive from this job would be twice the standard fare. As far as requirements, you need only be good in a fight, and comfortable with sailing. If you are interested, I can put you directly in touch with the client. If you have questions, I'll answer what I can, but the client did not share all of the details, as you can understand." Kilith explained. He did not want to get too specific in a public place, but he needed to make sure he captured the man's interest in the job.
