Don't worry, Tibor is being actively useful.
Tibor wasn't paying attention to the rest of them. There were more important things to do than get caught up in squabbling and trying to pass blame. He did not hear the tiefling passing out the coin, but the actual cost of the maul and the chainmail would far outweigh that of the gold, so he simply made a mental note of it and decided when it came time to sell what they could not use the scales would be balanced then.

Searching the area, it took him longer than he had expected to find the drag marks, but eventually he did. As he had expected, the batiri of this land were no better at hiding their tracks than those of Chult. After taking his time to check,though, he realized that there were more than just the tracks for one dwarf here. There was another that the batiri had taken.

"Tibor find him some tracks. Gundren, by de boot prints. Look like him was captured alive, an went willingly. Not normal, for de dwarf people, but de batiri take more den jus him. Dere another set of prints here. Dis rescue gettin more and more complicated."

With that, he would stand and walk back to the group. He did not feel the urge to prove himself with words. So far, he had been the one to save their driver's life, after moving to protect it on the battle field. He had put the warrior from his misery and cared for his funeral, and now he had found their way forward. As far as Tibor was concerned, the rest of them needed to prove they were better for more than killing batiri and wasting time arguing.
@rocketrobie2 Alright, looks like you're good to join us.

@Dark Cloud I'll work with you as soon as I can to work out the mechanics for your character. You can go ahead and post a description of your character is the CS section. It'll just be his general appearance.
Anyone else want to post, before I have Tibor loudly declare he's found tracks?
@Dark Cloud Which is fine. If you hadn't reserved the next post, the rest of us could have just been talking IC, which we're probably going to end up doing anyway.
@Dark Cloud Got to say, boss man, I don't mind you needing time to do the DM thing. How you're going about it, though, with reserving the next post then not actually posting anything... Kind of stops the rest of us from just having fun with dialogue between our characters, without actually progressing the game.

We could all legitimately be having an in-character discussion about what we should do about this goblin attack right now, which unless we're about to get attacked again seems like something that's going to happen anyway. So, have to say, I'm sorta confused about your methods on this one.
Hmmm... I just realized; Tibor has guidance and hasn't been abusing it at every opportunity.

I do believe I am a failure as a cleric.
@TGM Kenshi's character got crit for lethal damage, then Kenshi abruptly dropped from any and all contact with anyone. We now know why, but at the time we needed to resolve combat. So, we moved forward with the intent of treating the character as an NPC.

It was ultimately my decision to kill his character as an NPC, instead of keeping him around. Dark didn't know I had planned to do that, but Kenshi wasn't around to object, and you were given the invite by (as I understand it) Cu before Ironheart was even dead, or before I think Dark was even certain Kenshi wouldn't come back.

That said, Kenshi was a problem child who took offence at the drop of a hat, regularly caused problems, and saw the adventure as a videogame and treated it as such. Dark and I had been in another game with him where he threw a tantrum like a petulant child after I confronted his character over something I told him OOC I was going to confront his character about, and instead of accepting the GM siding with me on the matter, dropped the game.

Kenshi deserved what he got, and I'm more than willing to say it.
@Dark CloudTibor is gonna search the area for tracks. I rolled... not great, but he's good at survival. Roll is in my post.
Once the pyre finally finished burning, Tibor turned away and rejoined the group. Zinlynn would need time, no doubt, to process what had just happened. Being a servant of Kelemvor, the cleric was used to the sight of grief. To her, his only response was a solemn nod, as acceptance of whatever blame she cared to lay on his shoulders.

"De warrior is right," he said, addressing the group, but looking at Nethruel. "Dese horses were dead well before Tibor's story began. De man who own dem, Gundren, he not here. If de had been close by when de fightin' happened, we would had heard de horses panic. No, dis here was an ambush. Tibor's story may make it hard to hear, but not so loud uttahs could not hear. Like de tiefling say, maybe if someone had not had dier eyes in a book, we woulda seen dem comin' dat much sooner."

Before the tiefling could add to his comment, Tibor would turn to him, pointing at his face with the end of his staff. "Not dat he de only one needs to learn a lesson. Dat gold goes to de party. Tibor take only alms for de church, ta pay funeral costs to Kelemvor. A little coin weigh well on de scales, an a warrior dat die in battle deserve the extra weight. De rest, it get split even. Understood?"

"Batiri not likely ta talk to us. But, dey are too stupid to hide deir tracks, and Gundren was a big mon. Tibor gonna go search de wreckage, see if he can't find sum tracks." With that, he did as he said, once more breaking away from the group. In Chult, goblins-there called batiri-rarely left tracks deep enough to follow, and were innately talented at hiding. However, that was natural to their species, and not an active effort to make it harder to follow them. So often, when they took captives, they did not think to hide the trail the body left as they dragged it. The large tortle hoped these odd main-land batiri were the same, as he began examining the area around the horses for signs of a struggle and a body being taken away.
