This is the style Iā€™m used toā€¦ no, these are not grammatical errors. They are cookies. Yes, you can eat them :wink:

Cautiously Miron looked aroundĀ¹. ā€œI doubt that the kids are here, but better safe than sorryā€ , he thought. ā€œCome out. We are here to help youā€, he said with full authority.

Prologue:

All of you find yourselves in the small town of Roslarā€™s Coffer ā€“ due to either being native residents or visitors from a foreign land being there for one reason or another. Youā€™ve already each received rooms in the local inn without having to pay for them. Dusk approaches on the horizon, and you find yourselves fairly tired after a long and exciting day.

(feel free to assume that you all are near each other, and introduce yourselves, if youā€™d like)

(when you introduce yourself, please then post your character sheet in this thread in case you need to be puppeted in the future)

ā€œAh, right. We havenā€™t properly introduced ourselves. Well, hello there. I hope you have an exciting day.ā€ The tone the woman is using sounds a bit snarky, but in a mildly friendly way. ā€œMy name is Carill. Carill Hawkflare, to be specific. You donā€™t need to remember the whole thingā€¦ not yet, anyway. Actions speak louder than words. If you remember the name, itā€™ll be because of what I do, not as a result of what I say.ā€

Carill puts her left hand in one of the pockets of her attire, getting a feel for her purse. Good. No thieves yet. ā€œIt was awfully nice of them to offer us rooms for free. Donā€™t look a gift horse in the mouth, as they say.ā€

The narrator has not even considered her appearance before, but they might be able to post a design here at some point.

ā€œMay the Five bless you, Myladyā€, the tall woman says and lifts the drink in front of her, with an ironic smile. It is is almost impossible to not see her - even in a country like this, where it is not uncommon for people to wear heavy armor, her appearance is outstanding. Her fair, almost white hair, which almost seems flaming, her unhealthy pale skin and her golden eyes grossly contrast the heavy spiked black armor she is wearing. On the middle of the breastplate there is a symbol engraved, a golden wheel with 5 curved spikes.
ā€œIn my order they call me Sunshine, but most people know me under the name Qari Arkona. I donā€™t mind either, itā€™s not like names are important.ā€
Her accent seems hissing, and sometimes she uses very uncommon words for this region. It is clear that she is not coming from here.

(this is a public announcement that all players need to make a free Roll20 account for this game if you donā€™t already have one. Weā€™ll have to use there for the maps because I just learned that Google Sheets does not support background images. make sure to use your username, not ur real name, when making the account).

(Hey, Iā€™m here but Iā€™m going to get this RollD20 account sorted first before I start.)

ā€œā€¦Sunshine. Is that ironic?ā€ Carill takes note of the onyx-colored armor, contrasting Qariā€™s white hair. ā€œI donā€™t quite seeā€¦ any sun in your appearance. If anything, you look like you would absorb it.ā€ Carill says this like a friendly quip, making sure not to offend a stranger upon first meeting.

Kyrsaku speaks in a vulnerable yet confident tone.

ā€œOh, hello there Sunshine and Carill. My name is Kyrsaku.ā€ As Kyrsaku finishes his sentence, he looks away in shame and rubs his extraordinarily black hair. ā€œIā€™m an apprentice Alchemist looking for some experience on the battlefield; with some interest in explosions. My potions donā€™t just heal people; theyā€™re incredibly volatile when thrown too!ā€ Kyrsaku puts his hand on someā€¦ dangerous looking glass bottles strapped to his waist.

ā€œI hope weā€™ll have a great time together!ā€

ā€œIā€™ve absorbed a lot, but not the sunā€¦ yetā€, Qari answers with a smile to Carill. She looks a little bit worried at the flasks on Kyrsakuā€™s waist. ā€œI hope you donā€™t intend to break them here, I think, most people here donā€™t like fire as much as I.ā€
She sips at her drink. ā€œBut it seems like you are for a similiar purpose here as Iā€¦ Lastwall is a good place to get practiceā€¦ and if itā€™s a bit too peaceful here, there is always enough trouble in the countries around it.ā€ She stares into the glass. ā€œEnough trouble, indeed.ā€

(iā€™m not going to progress the story until all players have spoken and interacted @Ami @Geyde)

A small frown taints Carillā€™s face as she watches the Alchemist. ā€œHandle with care, hm? I do like to see a good fire, but I would prefer it not to appear inside an inn. It wouldnā€™t be proper payback for their hospitalityā€¦ā€ She muses before shifting her position on the bed a bit.

ā€œThat said, it should prove very useful in many situations. You do sound versatile.ā€

A man prods the ground with a stick nearby, appearing to be looking forā€¦something. That something vanishing would apparently not be obvious to anyone but him since he decides to get up slowly.
ā€œWellā€¦thatā€™s not happening. Whatever.ā€ he mumbles to himself without considering the people around him. His eyes twinge at what he just said.

ā€œThereā€™s something bound to happen eventually. Luck tells me that itā€™s not going to be necessarily good for any parties involved, so that adds precise credence to me talking to you all.ā€ The man speaks for the most part jovially with a pang of bitter frustration being dragged along to the party. ā€œI am Suuter. My talents are many, but my explanationsā€¦lacking. Good day to you two.ā€

ā€œI mean three. I can see, yesā€
