Iofine and Zudd had been given a few days to rest but now they had been summoned to a meeting concerning the creation of somekind of group to defend the city and the surrounding villages. The meeting wasn't for a little while so they had sometime to prepare or relax. They had heard the heralds annoucing that the city needed heroes and they had seen messengers leaving to spread the word to the oulyings lands as well. The annoucement asks for anyone of skill and daring to report to the Saltmarsh town hall at miday if they believe themselves up to the task of defending the city, a proper reward for your efforts is of course mentionned as well for those more motivated by promises of wealth than glory or the satisfaction of doing a good deed.

Gonna start whit some free for all roleplay for now as everyone intruces themselves and makes their entrance and explains their presence in town. Wether you live here or are a refuges from the slaver raids to the north (There are almost 2000 refuges curently in Saltmarsh) or you came here in answer to the call from a large city like dragonport to the west or four-winds to the north-west.To the east and south its the ocean thought you could have arived by boat. I'd also recomand taking a look at the map to get a feel for the city.

Isak enters the city from the western gate and makes his way towards the city hall, asking people where it is on his way. Entering the city hall Isak looks for the guy thats apparently in charge. "Greetings I was sent here to help in the defence of the city"

Mark enters the city in awe, it had been quite a many moon since he had been in such a well made settlement. The taverns and strong architecture was very pleasing to the eye. He takes his horse to the stabling and flicks the stableboy a silver piece, "Boy, pay special attention to my horse there. He's earned his rest." He said nicely as he leaves for the town hall.

He entered quite calm and collected, his cloak flowing about him. Mark held an air of mystery around him, but he never felt the need to shy away. He didn't make any effort to hide his very prominant birthmark, though it was not ugly as such but more of an intimidating feature to others.

Mark finds the nearest official and asks "Where do I sign up?. Quite eager to get into the loop of things, he had only heard dark rumors. But where he could offer his skills he would do so, always in the hope he would find some slither of information about his past along the way...

Valas treks through the city, quick and quiet as is his way, at times climbing roofs, sometimes jumping from roof to roof, but always quiet. He stealthily makes his way to the City hall, to hear more of this quest, and most of all, the reward. He asks a few people who to speak to, then turns and dissapears into the shadows.

(OOC what world are we in? Faerun, Ebberon, etc.? I can make my place i came from then.)

Lets just say faerun and at the southern edge of the sword coast.

Isak

A guardsmen quickly intercepts you as you move to enter. when you ask him he nods and leads you to a waiting room. ''A meeting will begin soon to discuss the matter please wait here until then or go explore the city until you hear the bell at the top of the town hall ring three times.'' he explains.


Mark

''Yessir and thank ye'' answers the boy wonder in his eyes at the piece of silver in his hands. A guardsmen quickly intercepts you as you move to enter. when you ask him he nods and leads you to a waiting room. ''A meeting will begin soon to discuss the matter please wait here until then or go explore the city until you hear the bell at the top of the town hall ring three times.'' he explains.

Valek

Valas makes his way to the city hall, quietly, then asks someone about where to go, as he has come all the way from Luskan to try his hand at the reward.



(OOC lemme guess...

''A meeting will begin soon to discuss the matter please wait here until then or go explore the city until you hear the bell at the top of the town hall ring three times.'')

Lol.

[General IceMan]

Isak desides to wait there. He looks around for somewhere to sit. Closing his eyes he begins to pray, for good luck on the mission, lots of tresure and good fortune to the poors.

Iofine opened her eyes from her mental reverie. She had been spending quite a bit of time in quiet contemplation since their return, absorbing information from her recent experiences and revelations. After a set amount of time, refreshed with knowledge, worn with exuberance, she decided to take a break.

Finishing a luxuriant bath, as far as these parts could provide, anyhow, she went down to eat something before attending the momentous meeting that would entail the further rescue of Saltmarsh...

[Scorch]

Mark simply nods at the man and leaves, not needing any more information from them. Seems like I have some time to kill before the bell tolls for me.

The warlock walks off into the city in search of a Wizards guild, he hadn't forgotten his personal agenda.

[Mercenary_Leader]

Iofine

Arriving downstairs you notice the room that is usualy crowded at this time of day is is empty save 3 men sitting at one of the table playing cards. They have the looks of thieves or thugs about them and you gte a bad feeling about them. Other than them there is only an old man apparently fast asleep whit a straw hat over his face in a chair next to the bottom of the stairs. Even the bartender and the waitress seem to have deserted the place.

[Cole Caecus]

I got around town looking for the 'sights' while trying to...earn...some money.

[Mercenary_Leader]

Mark

You arrive at the impressive temple of boccob, also the home of the mages guild. truly it towers arounf all the surounding structure. (It is in fact right behind the town hall so it takes you less than a minute to get there.)



The area seems awfull quiet thought and a pair of armsmen guard the entrance.

Valas

You travel the city for a short whiel making you way to the marketplace. You spot a target whit a rather large coinbag but you feel uneasy like your being followed or watched.

Zudd left the sanctuary of his room and went down to the general great room to see if the innkeeper could get him some food before the meeting at noon. He looked around for some friendly faces.

[resonance]

Iofine eyed them warily and decided to leave the Inn and see what of interest remained in the piddled town. (Looking for: Sites of interest to a haughty arcanist)

Mark enters the temple in awe of the architecture in search of the head priest.
