Current My RP Muse has returned, so hopefully I can find an RP or two to focus it towards.

So, I'm on some sort of official and consistent schedule now. Which is nice, unless life decides to screw it up for me.

Bio

What's up, Rawk Flawk and visitors alike!

I... am the Master Gamer, rawkhawk64. This also happens to be one of my internet hidey-holes. I enjoy all manner of Roleplays, usually fantasy or sci-fi settings. I also do fandoms. I'll usually check out any Kingdom Hearts, Naruto, or Pokemon RP's. I'll also check out other fandoms I like, but those usually have to be done well.

As for what I do outside the Guild, the big one is streams. You can catch me at twitch.tv/rawkhawk64.

Hope to have fun RP'ing with you!

Yeah, I hate to say this, but I'm gonna have to drop out. My computer's infected with malware that is being very stubborn. I'm actually posting this from my 3DS. Have fun with this RP, and feel free to write Durin out as you wish. If you kill him off, though, make sure he goes down swinging.
Durin nodded to the girl when she set the food down in front of him, asking what drink he wanted. "If you've got any Dwarven ale, I'll take it. If not, your strongest ale." Durin gruffly replied. He didn't care too much for what the other races called "ale", but Dwarves liked their drinks strong, anyway. As he ordered the ale, he passed the girl 20 gold pieces. "Do what you wish with what's leftover." Durin told her. After all, the reward from the Jarl had replinished his coffers easily enough, plus he had more coming on the way with the upcoming bandit hunt.

As Durin started on his stew, the shield maiden gave her approval as well, even being nice enough to give Durin some tips on how the girl would be useful. Best to have her as a forward scout. I'd better be right behind her, though. Never know when unexpected trouble could come about. the Dwarf thought to himself. It was shortly after that when Arielle pulled the two Drows away from the rest. Durin heard the muffled sounds of conversation, but didn't really care what it was about. Shortly after, the elf maiden came and told Durin that she'd be heading back, and that he was fully in charge of the hunting party. The Dwarf nodded respectfully, though his mouth was too full of the delicious stew to properly thank her.

Durin watched as the human girl practically inhaled her stew before rushing to get her gear. The Dwarf sighed. First sign of a newbie adventurer was how much they tended to rush things. By the time the girl had gotten back, Durin had only just finished his stew. As he spotted the human, he waved her on over. He wanted to get some idea of what he was dealing with...

"So, according to Lady Arielle, you know the lay of the land quite well. List of things to keep an eye out for, natural or otherwise." Durin said to her. He wanted to make sure that everyone knew the dangers they'd be dealing with, besides the obvious bandits. Durin glowered at his empty stew bowl. Bandits were a sore spot for him. They tended to be wily and desperate when backed into a corner, which is when the got unpredictable. And unpredictable meant dangerous in Durin's line of work.

Durin glanced over at the centaur, paying attention to anything Alice told him. The centaur certainly didn't have the look of a fighter. Perhaps she was a healer of sorts. If so, she'd be invaluable in the upcoming hunt. Healers were always nice to have around, as they generally kept people alive.

In the meantime, the Dwarf turned his eye to the Winter Elf that had spoken to Alice. He knew it was her that had expressed interest in the hunt as well, as Durin had seen the wink. As he studied her, he gave a curt nod to indicate his approval. After everyone had finished eating, he'd announce the start of the hunt.
I'll get a post up after I get off of work.
Durin nodded, and examined everyone in the tavern again as Arielle made her announcement. He could see there were definitely some warriors here in the tavern. He looked around the room, gauging various reactions as the announcement continued. Shortly after Arielle had finished, the two from the Order got up and approached them.

After a brief introduction, they said they'd help. Durin looked them up and down, moreso out of habit than anything. He'd worked with the Order briefly once. He knew that they were always good warriors. As Durin was getting up, the female of the pair approached him and offered her hand. Durin didn't take it, merely nodding. "Same." was the short reply.

However, it was shortly after that his attention was brought to the human female who had entered the bar. He approached her as she gave her answer, stopping a few feet away from her. He looked her up and down, eyeing her with a look that would intimidate most others. He grunted. "You'll do fine, lass. No rush on the gear. I need food first." Durin said, before turning around and seating himself where he had gotten up. He was content to wait for his turn to get an order. He turned to Arielle. "She seems inexperienced in combat, but I know she'll do fine so long as she keeps a level head." he said, giving his professional opinion of the village girl.
We'll work something out. I'll get started on a post after I get off of work.
Durin nodded to the satyr taking the picture to examine it. "Yes, the Jarl sent me. I'm a mercenary that happened to be passing through." The answer was short and curt, as Durin wasn't one for idle conversation. Durin examined the box further. Of course, coming from a dwarven family, Durin knew about all kinds of jewels and the value they held.

"They probably attacked the wagon seeking that jewel. Rare things don't get moved without people noticing. I'll help, but I'll split the profits with whomever you see fit." With that, Durin turned and started walking away. "If you want to come along, Orcling, then I'm meeting the Jarl's wife at the Tavern." With those words, Durin picked up his pace a bit and headed toward the tavern. Heading in, he saw that the place was bustling. After a quick scan, Durin found the Jarl's wife. He also noted two Drows, a third sitting a ways away from the crowd, a sheep centaur knitting, two members of the Order (What could they be doing here? he briefly wondered), a human girl, and a winged elf.

Durin moved to where Arielle sat, taking a seat across from her. "I've talked to the shopkeeper, as well as a survivor of the bandit attack. Seems they got guts, as the attack happened a few miles away from here. Supplies for the tavern, blacksmith, and a rare jewel for one of your shopkeepers. Recruited a half-orc along the way. He'll be along if he's interested. The keeper offered a bit more on top of the Jarl's reward for bringing the jewel back, so I suspect he's not far behind. Whatever help we can get will be nice. Perhaps one of the guests here saw the attack and can tell us more."

Durin sat in thought. He had the feeling that the jewel was why the caravan was attacked. After all, the way the shopkeeper fretted about it, it was sure to fetch a lot of money, something that bandits always had a greed for. While Durin had a bit of a love for gold himself, he at least earned his, even if it wasn't the most honest way to do so. "Will the Jarl need heads?" he asked. If so, he'd have to make sure to collect as many as he could. The more people there were involved, the more it'd have to be split. Durin himself was pretty set for a while with the 300 pieces he had, but you never knew when you were gonna go into town again, and he just might be low on supplies at that point...
Sorry about that, Ryu. That kinda slipped my mind...

I'll give @Savo until the middle of the week, hopefully he'll be able to reply by then.
Okay, it appears that we only have Gambit and Xikari that are in. Savo and Ryuzaki have yet to respond to the tags... Hmm...
@Savo [@Ryukazi] Last call, mates.

If they don't reply by Saturday, I'll consider them no longer interested, and it might be just you three that continue on.
Durin nodded at the Jarl's request. So, there was more money for him in this place. "Dead bandits I can do. And judging by the sounds of the damage from the report, it's clear that there's a group here. I'd be stupid to try and attack them alone. I'll accept any help that can be found." Durin said. He turned to the Jarl's wife, nodding in a respectful, but curt way. "Very well. I'll check the shops first." With that, the mercenary left the longhouse, heading toward what appeared to be a shop.

By Durin's reasoning was that the man that had survived would likely want to report the failure of his delivery to whoever was in charge of the store at the destination. There, he saw an old man and the shopkeeper. Durin approached, waving to signal that he meant no harm.

"Hello, gentlemen. My name is Durin, and I'm a travelling mercenary. I've been asked to investigate the bandit attack, and to head out with some others to take care of them." Durin explained, before turning to the man who had been in the convoy delivering to the town.

"So, your the survivor of the bandit attack. Mind if I ask exactly how many bandits you saw, if you can recall?" Durin asked, hoping that he'd get at least some sort of idea of the numbers he and the group would be dealing with. While waiting for an answer, he turned to what he presumed to be the shopkeeper. "What exactly was on that shipment that was coming in?" If it was weapons, caution would need to be exercised in order to ensure that everyone made it out alive. Durin would also try to see if he could return even some of the supplies.
