Current Just because you can have 36 attacks per turn that threaten a crit on a roll of 14+ doesn't mean it's worth doing.

Isn't it weird how you can start a private conversation with yourself?

I'm waiting for agentmanatee to post ^^
I like my references ^w^
Toshiro scratched his left temple and again fell silent for a good while. He was obviously weighing his options about possible rewards and risks. "I'll gladly join you good sir, but there are just a few things I will make clear." He finished his pint of water and got on his feet. "I'm not that kind a paladin who upholds the law to the letter - you know, those fellows who nag at you for jaywalking or something like that. I'll accept some minor thievery if it is necessary for completing a task. You need not worry about me marching in to a bandit camp to challenge them in to honorable combat or something like that - except if we need a distraction so the rest of the group can sneak in through the back." He glanced ever so slightly to his left and stared at the farthest wall of the inn before again continuing. "However I will not accept doing something wrong for the sake of it being 'cool' or 'awesome' - I will not accept killing children or other innocent noncombatants, be they of any race or alignment if they do not pose a threat to us." Toshiro adjusted his cloak slightly. "Oh... and for me being a paladin is a profession, not a class." He flashed a little smile - one of those smiles all old monks had even without it being a class feature. "I am a monk with 18 levels under my belt - so this'll probably be my last adventure anyways, though if things go well and we all live through this I'll gladly join you on a second adventure as well." He again paused and swung his head to the other side like he was listening to a very quick conversation between several people. "Since I'm a member of the nobility having me in the group will perhaps give us alteast some advantage in our quest - after all we don't have to constantly go lurking in the side alleys and might even get some help from the city guards of many places. We might get even more help if our travels happen to take us close to Azure city."
"Why are we even here?" Gen mumbled with some mild annoyance in his voice. "We'll be facing just little kids." The tall earthbender shook his head as he paced back and forth around the room the Legendary Lion-turtles were occupying. He flicked the reddish lock of hair away from his eyes and fiddled around with the silver hairpin. Shin let out a little chuckle as he took a sip of tea and stared out from a window to the street below. His smile hadn't lost any of it's charm or warmth over the years. "Oh come on Gen, we were just kids when we started. You remember how we were underestimated at first, hmm?" He glanced towards Gen and gestured with his teacup "We can't go underestimating anyone - so..." "We'll just fight like every match is against the toughest enemy we have had thus far. Kiddie gloves are off from the get go." Liang cut in from the sofa she was reclining on. The sofa was situated on a corner and it was the largest piece of furniture in the room. "We have a week to get our act together again so we'd better start training first thing tomorrow." She rubbed her left shoulder and shook her head a bit. "My neck is killing me again..." Shin finished his tea calmly, placed the cup on a table and made his way to the sofa. He rather impolitely shoved Liang to the floor and sat behind her. Liang let out a surprised little squeak and was about to say something rather impolite when the waterbender began gently massaging her neck. "How have you survived without us looking after you?" He asked with that annoyingly polite voice of his. Liang closed her eyes and let out a sigh - with her best attempt at seeming like she was really annoyed. "I've survived just fine, thank you very much... Oh, just a bit to the right, please." Gen glanced at his teammates and didn't even try to hide his smile. Eight years had been such a long time and they hadn't seen each other enough to his liking. Something just reminded so much of the old times... He wiped the side of his eye and grinned. "Once you are done with the captain how about you fix my back while you are at it?" Shin shrugged his shoulders and smirked "We'll see about that, this'll take a while." Liang giggled and glanced at the ceiling - she got a little nudge to the back of her head from Shin "Oi, no moving when I'm working li'll miss." The firebender pouted and lowered her arm to her lap. "F-fine..."
Toshiro smiled faintly as he began sipping the water he had ordered and listened to Cyanak and Bozidar. He had long since reached the level that he wouldn't be growing physically older - and butting in on someone's adventuring party when you are atleast by very rough estimate a handful of levels above them might make you seem like a bit of a not very polite person. Still he was very curious and the little voices in the back of his head reminded him that it's a Paladin's duty to provide help to those in need - if they accept it ofcourse, if they don't want your help then you can just leave them be, forcing your help on others would be very impolite. "Terribly sorry to cut in to your conversation here, but from this distance I couldn't stop myself from overhearing that you are putting up an adventuring party." He paused for a moment, he was either thinking very carefully what to say next or having some kind of an inner debate. "I am Toshiro Mizu, a Paladin of the Sapphire Guard." He intentionally left out the 'honorary' part out since it really wasn't needed except when filing paperwork. A spot check might bring out the fact that this paladin isn't actually wearing heavy armor or carrying any kinds of weapons, but who really checks those things out? Or does a lore check about paladins?
I'm here tooo!!! ^^
"Now that was a tad bit impolite of you, sir wizard." The blue cloaked fellow stated very politely. "None of my business however." He just passed by the wizard who now was looking at him like he'd probably look at something that has crawled out from a sewer. Toshiro shook his head slightly and seated himself on the stool the wizard had been occupying earlier. "Such a mess, such a mess... You ok there" He glanced down at the gnome while finally pulling down his hood. "Hope you didn't hurt yourself." He smiled politely and turned his attention to to the barkeep. "A pint of water, please."
Ramius was about to retort something polite to the young woman when a fight began brewing. With his strength and speed he could have easily intervened on the whole thing and maybe could have reduced possible casualties - however this was not the Yan-ti's fight. He just turned on his heels and surprisingly calmly made his way towards the door that was farthest from the spreading fighting. He nearly got out before his way was blocked by a very tall and quite drunken fellow. Ramius cursed under his breath as he removed his cloak to give himself more freedom in his movements and lifted his arms to a proper hand to hand combat stance. It wasn't long untill the two ended up grappling with each other. Both men tried obviously to get an advantage over the other and to his great annoyance Ramius wasn't the one gaining the advantage. His self control broke completely as he let out a rather unnerving hiss which was followed by spitting acid to the large man's eyes. The man let out a pained scream as he was tossed to the floor while clutching his sizzling face.
It's nice to see a GM who's committed ^w^ I'll try to be more patient ^^
I hope this thing is still alive.
