A Villain In A World Of Heroes

For reference, these are the current ideas for what to tell the innkeeper.

1. I went to the forest again. It's nice there. I forgot to check the time, so I slept on a tree instead.

2. Went out of town to get some animal pelts/skins so we can try to earn some money. Got lost, and only got one pelt.

3. Exploring around town. (we are just covered in dirt, right?)

4. Got hit by a herd of migrating wildebeests.

Also, Changing my vote.

Innkeeper
[X] Went out of town to get some animal pelts/skins so we can try to earn some money. Got lost, and only got one pelt.

Major
[X] Buy some magic books and learn more spells, or maybe even something else. Then, take some time to practice what you learned.
-[X] Ice Magic. Our best spell currently.
-[X] Magical Creatures and How to Deal With Them. We need to know what can give us more powers, and we'll need information in case the summoning goes wrong. Maybe this includes how to tame them?
-[X] A spell to clean yourself and conjure some replacement clothes (even if they only last long enough to get to your room and get real clothes)

Minor
[X] Now that you know a spell to move the earth, you could clear out the left side of the first tunnel fork.
[X] Examine the book you got in the temple, hopefully you will learn something more from it.

And we have a tie. I guess it gets left open, again. Well, at least I probably have time to work on my Wonderland quest.
(I would prefer if you didn't just change your vote to break the tie, however. Make your arguments why your vote is better (or be convinced by someone else).)

There. Tie broken.
 
Bit of an assessment for the Innkeeper vote.


Got hit by a herd of migrating wildebeests.
Taking Refuge in Audacity has merit, but this is somebody that knows us. It would probably be best not to overtly disrespect one of the only people we (OOC) know about who actually cares about Cedra.

Exploring around town. (we are just covered in dirt, right?)

Would be believable, if not for the amount of time we were gone (We left the inn 2 mornings ago). Would probably raise more questions due to our age and the fact we could have easily come back to the inn if we were in town.

Went out of town to get some animal pelts/skins so we can try to earn some money. Got lost, and only got one pelt.
Reasonable to believe, and reinforced by both our training as a leatherworker, and the pelt in our inventory. Would probably cause a bit of concern if he can somehow tell Fenric Wolf fur apart from normal Wolf fur.

I went to the forest again. It's nice there. I forgot to check the time, so I slept on a tree instead.
Basically the same thing we said last time he asked. Would be fairly believable, but would cause a lot of concern due to it being a forest filled with monsters, and Cedra saying she enjoys it there.

--------
Also, I will point out that the minor actions have a 3-way tie as well.

It's less audacity, and more, "You wouldn't believe me if I told you anyway; let's just say it was a really bad day." It would be one of those "dragging yourself through the door" moments, not a flippantly casual remark.

Remember that by the time we say this it will have been 2 full days since he has seen us. I'm not sure it would have quite the effect you are hoping for when we walk downstairs in the morning fully rested and say it.

That said, I admit I may have misinterpreted your purpose for saying it.

Well, we may get to controll the mafia if we fail hard enough? I don'tactually know why people chose this. It's a plot thing, but I think it's pointless.

we are not covered in dirt, we are naked and covered in dirt and blood. our clothes got destroyed when the wall fell on us and injured us
 
You have been gone since yesterday morning, that is what you need to explain.
 
[X]Went out of town to get some animal pelts/skins so we can try to earn some money. Got lost, and only got one pelt.
I am voting for this, he is an innkeeper, he has probably seen Heroes with Fenric Wolf pelts/etc, but it is the only one apart from Exploring that won't end up hurting us if we are lucky and he doesn't know the difference between wolf pelts. (Maybe don't it to show him, just the pack bulge of it?)

now we need to get leather working tools to back up our story.

There is still a tie.:cool:

(Why?!)

Well, I guess it stays open for a while longer, again.
 
Went out of town to get some animal pelts/skins so we can try to earn some money. Got lost, and only got one pelt.
Buy Ice and clothing spells
Summon the (un?)holy hybrid imp
These won...

And I'll break the tie for the last action by switching it from hunting the sneaker to cleaning out the tunnel with our fancy new spell, so that we can finally get an update in. There. No ties.

And by that I don't mean that I'm going to go back however many pages and change it. Just consider it changed...

Dangit, actually kind-of-concerned-for-our-safety-Innkeeper, how are we supposed to go on our quest for revenge if you keep trying to emulate a responsible adult authority figure!? (Either that, or he has... ulterior motives for being concerned for our well being, but I like to think that this world isn't that Grimdark.)
