((Back in the Crazy Cat Inn))

There wasn't much hustle and bustle in the past couple of days. But since the explosion in the Ugly Mug, well ... The Crazy Can Inn attracted all sorts of crowds, those trying to escape from the attack, those just trying to get drunk during the attack ...  The large room reeked of stale ale, sweat, some parts even held the stench of vomit and urine. Simply said, the Crazy Cat Inn wasn't the greatest place to be in. The food certainly wasn't as good as the Ugly Mug, but who could complain when they weren't being set on fire and chased out by a huge ugly demon. It was good enough for now. 

One guest in particular, an old lanky man, perhaps in his late 60's sat at a table, quite near a couple of other adventurers. His bald head, sporting multiple age spots and spurts of silver hair here and there was snugly hidden beneath his hood and his salt and pepper beard lay matted and mangled on his chest. He seemed to fit right in with his surroundings, perhaps part of the wall decor, his smell even matched that of the tavern. But as he crept closer to the two who spoke discretely of a bounty to be had, one might think there was more to this old man than what he led on. 

"If coin is what you seek, there is rumor of a bounty worth much much more than that of a 'Grand Basilisk'. Hidden deep within the mountains, you'd find gold and jewels beyond your imagination, enough to make you rich beyond your wildest dreams, not to mention the bounty in which I'd like for you to procure. So what do you say, boys?"

okie dokies. So!

@The Fated Fallen a few posts back, there was an interaction with Davik, the Guard Captain and Kayleth in the apothecary shop. He was ushered into the back and told to relax. This, I hope, will give Tirarrian a chance to interact with the other two characters as they're getting patched up, as well as open up the floor to Kayleth as a pc. 

When Tirarrian goes looking for the Captain, she may get blurred and indirect answers, but ultimately, they would lead her right back to Kayleth's shop. 

@KazeXDZ I do apologize for sideswiping your rp. I love the fact that your character started off in the inn and interacted with Robert. I did also see it as a perfect opportunity to draw you both back into the story line and set up a possible second arc where our adventurers travel up the mountains and perhaps... fight a dragon or two? 

With more involved and in one location instead of being scattered through out the town, I could see everyone participating in this one, all doing their own thing in their own way :D 

I am super sorry for how slow things have gotten, with the absence of most of our major players, I was unsure how to proceed. But if you all are interested enough, I'd like to build upon the story and try to move along. 

Our active player list has shortened quite considerably but is as follows
@KazeXDZ as Siegfried
@boomlover as Robert
@Dragoknighte as Durin and Kayleth
@The Fated Fallen as Tirarrian
@WanderingRebel as Katia and Tobias
@IcePezz as Isabeau

To those just joining or interested in joining our rp, please read 
When we started our story, Maria had a few patients earlier in the day in our healing shop 'Maria's Medicines and Sundries'. Edict stormed in with Xusin, Tirarrian, and Cassius. Xusin had a wounded hand, badly wounded or not, Edict demanded that Maria fix it. Cassius was badly wounded though stepped to the side and waited his turn. With all the commotion and the rudeness directed at her and her shop, Maria snapped. Without any regard for her clients or herself for that matter, she whipped out her spell book and healed Xusin's hand. Edict, having an extreme distrust/dislike for magic, drew his sword to her throat and the situation only escalated from there. 

Joseph and Piper were on their way to the docks with their new found friend Jason, who thinks Joseph is a legendary hero named Sir Joffridus, however, after realizing that they've been followed by Isabeau, they've hid in an alley way just near Maria's shop. Isabeau confronted the trio in the alley and things only got stranger from there.

Just as they all started to settle down inside the medical shop, Xusin felt/saw a presence of someone - Aezophyl a demon who was sent here by Zargon. She stormed out of the shop in a fury to confront her fear. In an effort to 'burn off some steam' Aezophyl ... made someone go on fire. In a panic and fright, the burning man ran right into the wall of  the healers shop. But he wasn't dead. Rising back up, the charred, still burning skeleton rose back up and started stumbling, causing everyone on the street to flee and in a matter of minutes, bells of alarm to sound. It clumsily scratched at the shop's door even as it set the said door on fire. Between this and the fleeing Xusin, everyone rushed out of the building. Edict rushed the burning skeleton with his sword then caught up with Xusin. Maria had had it. She was accosted by someone who demanded her services, then left without paying, her door was burned down, there was a strange incident of a burning skeleton outside her shop. She ran out of the shop yelling and chasing them, demanding payment. Aezophyl had made his way into the Ugly Mug, and within minutes, more trouble had brewed, sparking the tavern into flames. As he walked out, Xusin, Edict, Cassius and Tirarrian were there to face him. Following Aezophyl out were tons and tons and tons of burning skeletons, minions set forth to cause more destruction and chaos to the town. Cassius attacked first as he lunged at Aezophyl with a few moves that were unfortunately deflected. Though it did give Edict enough time to launch his attack. Tirarrian had settled somewhere and set up her crossbow with a pouch that Edict had given her. Unfortunately she had become overrun by skeletons, but her shot did go off and was extremely successful as it hit the tavern and had taken out the fire that was burning inside. 

Piper, Joseph, Jason and Isabeau left the alley way just in time to see the battle unfold. Isabeau went to save Tirarrian from the flaming skeletons, as did Tobias, who had also just arrived on the scene. Katia, Tobias's adopted daughter was busy chopping up skeletons along with the guards. Both Tobias and Isabeau had told Tirarrian that it wasn't safe for her to set up where she  was (in so many words :p). Joseph had dragged Jason and Piper away from the fighting, Tirarrian went to join them. Isabeau went to help Edict and Cassius at the tavern to defeat Aezophyl. They were soon joined by Jade and Katia, and then Robert. Aezophyl suddenly found himself quite overwhelmed, outnumbered and rather wounded. Things were not looking up for him, and so, with an ominous message of what was to come, he took his own life.

Artholath, a demon from another realm and yet much the same, specializing in ice, had been deployed by the "boss" Zargon to kill the Mayor. Unfortunately he was intercepted by Durin. The bloody match went on for a bit, although it ended when Artholath was able to escape through a portal, opened by Zargon.


Did I cover everything?
