Howdy, folks. As many of you probably know, there's a new chat available for forum use, the
In this particular session, we found ourselves short a few players. Shrike and lurker decided to play as Fyaria (a drow female known for enjoying well-endowed males of the monstrous variety, normally an NPC but played by Shrike in this instance) and Rylgos (a mute female drider played by lurker, specializing in the use of her crossbow) have to find a new cook for the ship, after the old cook is killed in port. Most of the action occurs between the drider and an elven female, so expect cunnilingus, webbing bondage, domination, and oviposition. Enjoy!

. We've recently begun playing a freeform ERP based loosely on the old Spelljammer AD&D setting. So far I've been acting as DM, and players have included Caulder, lurker, Shrike7, and SinfulWolf.

Third Game Session, 16 November 2014, Part One (finding a cook):
PRE-GAME DISCUSSION, FOYER
Shrike7: Anything we can do with just us drow-likes? XD I would suggest the ritual, but kinda wanted Mina around for that one.
Hope62: Hrm...
lurker twiddles multiple legs '3'
Hope62: I'm trying to think of something that would involve just the two of you. I was planning a minor subplot in port (minor spoiler: your cook is dead and you have to find a new one or risk eating dry rations the whole trip).
Hope62: But that might not really involve the drider.
Hope62: There's also Fyaria, who wants to get her some drider loving.
lurker: True, but then again with everyone else 'occupied' who's going to defend the captain? ','
Hope62: But that doesn't involve Elise.
Shrike7: We could split up then, I suppose.
Hope62: Or I could let you play Fyaria, Shrike. :3
Shrike7: XD
Hope62: Well, I guess we could have drider and drow go on the cook quest together.
lurker: I has no complaints '3'
Hope62: Up to you guys. Drider-love, or Cook-quest?
Hope62: Or we could even combine the two. The task of finding a new cook is too trivial for Elise, so Fyaria (played by Shrike) and drider are sent.
Hope62: Wacky hijinks ensue!
lurker: Heh
Hope62: And I cannot for the life of me recall the drider's name. I remember it was complicated.
Shrike7: That's not a bad idea. Not sure if I'm feeling up to take massive drider ovipositor today, though XD
lurker: Rylgos for the dridername ','
Shrike7: Rylgoth? Close, not quite.
Hope62: Rylgos. I'll try to remember.
lurker: I got it all on notepad over here
Hope62: Well, maybe Fyaria is recovering from all the dicks she took last night.
Hope62: She might just be doing some flirty stuff and foreplay, kinda setting up Rylgos for later loving.
Shrike7: i spose if Lurk's up for that, nobody likes a tease, you know. *nods*
Hope62: I'm sure there are more ways to finish off a drider than to take in all their eggs. xD
lurker: Yer acting like she'd not find ways to be devious back
Hope62: Oh, and one more thing. Find me pictures, please. Of Rylgos, of Elise, and of Fyaria. Though I think you already had two for Elise, Shrike.

Elise: Are you drawing it yourself?
Rylgos: Nah, bits and pieces on Secondlife ',';
Elise: Ah, I see.
Hope62: Neat. :3
[Rename] Hope62 -> DM62
DM62: ((So I figure we'll start with Shrike playing Elise and me playing Fyaria, then Shrike will take over once the quest begins.))
Rylgos: ((Rightright))
Elise: (( *nods* alrighty* ))
DM62: It is first morning in port for the Spider's Kiss. Elise has slept in past her usual waking time, and is awoken by the ship's bells for 0800. Mina is wrapped in her arms as the "little spoon," and both drow and surface elf have moved to the left side of the bed, as they made a mess of the right side last night.
DM62: Rylgos wakes up at the bells as well, suspended in her webbing. The majority of her new shipmates have not gone out of their way to greet her--they avoid her with a mix of fear and loathing, which is pretty much what Rylgos has come to expect from the majority of drow and other inferior races. The only exception so far has been a few of the officers, and the hyper-feminine drow female that gave her a lustful look the previous night.
Elise: The drow extricated herself, leaving Mina asleep for now, stretching slightly before getting dressed and making her prayers to Lolth in the small shrine she kept in her room. The bells rang normally, so she knew the ship was all well for the time being, so she made her way to the galley first, looking for breakfast.
DM62: On her way to the galley, Elise passes the minotaur's door. She hears pounding, grunting, and moaning from within--it would seem that the minotaur is either up early for morning sex, or spent the whole night fucking. The deep voice rumbles from within, "Good morning, skipper. Join you for breakfast in a little while."
Rylgos stretches in her hammock slightly, a yawn being stifled by a arm as she slowly extracates herself from the webbing. Taking a few moments to extract a few things from her pack, the drider preens her hair back in order, straightens her clothing, and follows the general rush of crew to find some food, returning any dirty look she got in turn.
Elise smirks, pausing at the door for a moment to answer. "One of those nights you're going to kill your toy there, Bas. Don't take too long." She said, continuing on.
DM62: Elise and Rylgos arrive at the galley at the same time. Within, the early-rising drow are picking listlessly at their food. Shel'thuud, the yuan-ti navigator, is not eating, sitting at the officer's table with her arms folded. "Captain, good morning. I hope you've got a plan to fix this."
DM62: The food smells horrid--the eggs have been burnt, and the meat is undercooked and overspiced. The food seems barely edible in its current state.
Elise frowned. "You'd do better to treat your captain with a little more respect, Shel'thuud. -Especially- before she's eaten." She warned, reminding the long-time officer of the few times she's changed form and literally eaten members of the crew, though usually for a great deal more serious offenses than bad attitude. "What problem has you so riled up?"
Elise: ((damn ninja DM, with your multiple posts
))
DM62: ((Heh.))
Rylgos wrinkles her nose and makes a face of disgust upon catching the scent of the food. Seeing the commotion with the captain and her navigator, she scuttles over to listen and perhaps assist.
Rylgos: ((Also, Rylgos refs, hot out of the oven - http://www.ulmf.org/bbs/album.php?albumid=720&pictureid=14488 http://www.ulmf.org/bbs/album.php?albumid=720&pictureid=14489 ))
Elise: ((Very nice))
DM62: "Yes, Captain, begging your pardon, but it's the cook! Apparently he split off from his group last night and never came back. The word is that he tried his hand at a knife-fight for money, and lost. And, no offense, but there aren't very many good cooks among the drow, Captain." The yuan-ti indicates the rancid food on her plate.
DM62: ((I approve, lurker. :3 ))
[Private] Elise -> DM62: what's the slutty drow's name again, Faeydra?
[Private] DM62 -> Elise: Fyaria. And while she IS slutty, she's also a very proficient thief. And she's one of two crew members who really know Hades's Stone, the other being Bas.
Elise: "I see," Elise said, her frown deepening as she inspected the food herself. Glancing about at the few other crew around, she made mental note of who was doing what for duties for the day. "Fyaria, head into the port and confirm our cook is dead. If that's the case, find a replacement or two, and bring them here so I can meet them. Take Rylgos with you."
DM62: The drow snaps to attention. She still looks a little tired and a little sore, but much better than she was last night. "Aye-aye, Captain. Who's Rylgos?"
Elise: "The new crewmember you were eyeing on the way home last night." The captain answered with a smirk, nodding towards the drider.
Fyaria blushes deeply. "Aye, ma'am."
Rylgos perks up a bit as well, having been near the Captain at this point. Managing to catch her attention, she signed a quick 'Yes captain'. She gets a slight flush at Elise's comment but takes it in stride, straightening her equipment harness for a second now she had to leave the ship.
Elise: "And make sure the new cook is actually interested in the job. Nice as it would be to have one less share to split, I don't want some slave cook trying to poison our food, hmm?" Elise said, giving the food one more disgusted look before leaving it alone, heading back to her room briefly to gather one of her scrolls.
DM62: The group hears a roar. At the other end of the galley, Bas is holding a female drow against the bulkhead by her throat. "YOU STUPID BITCH! The cook disappears, apparently dead in a knife-fight, and I have to find out the next morning?! And the Captain has to find out at breakfast! I should pop out your eyes!" The female drow squirms under the first mate's fury.
Rylgos winces, her ears twitching at the screams and yells from the other side of the galley. She glances towards Fyaria, figuring she'd be getting up soon to do the task but leaving her to her, er, breakfast.
DM62: As it turns out, the drow is the officer of the deck from the previous night.
Fyaria signs to Rylgos, "Nice to meet you. I've got to get my gear from the crew hold, and weapons from the armoury."
Rylgos seems surprised at Fyaria's choice to use sign, and quickly signs back 'I will meet you at the boarding ramp, then,' soon scuttling off to that location until Fyaria's ready.
Elise walked past the pair into the hall calmly, not even sparing the drow a glance as the minotaur tore into her. Gathering the scroll she wanted from her room, she went back to the galley, calmly sitting at the officer's table and using the scroll to summon enough food for the officers, once things calmed down. It was a little bland, but much better than the slop whoever decided to try their hand at breakfast had made.
DM62: Bas stops by the officer's table long enough to apologize for the incident and explain that he'll be "addressing the issue" with the drow, personally. He then hauls the drow off to his quarters for punishment--which means that his personal slave will get a much-needed break, at least for a day or two.
Fyaria buckles on leather armor and retrieves her six daggers from the armory--two she carries in the open, and then the four that she hides about her person. She does not take long to reach the ramp.
Elise: Elise gave a nod. "Take some food with you, it won't last for long." She said simply.
DM62: Bas nods, taking a large handful of food with him... and stuffing a napkin into the mouth of his detainee.
Rylgos had taken a second to retrieve the rest of her gear from her hammock, but had still beaten Fyaria to the ramp, waiting for the drow patiently. When she arrives, she gives a nod of acnolegement.
[Rename] Elise -> Fyaria
Fyaria: "Alright then." Fyaria signed, heading down the ramp and into town.
Rylgos nods, shifting her crossbow a little on the strap now hanging from her shoulders- ready in case she needs it, but still loose and non-threatening.
DM62: ((Fyaria can think of three places she might check: the harbour master, local taverns, or the slave auction. She could also try recruiting from a restaurant, but restaurant owners don't typically like that.))
Fyaria: ((gonna head to the fighting pits first, confirm the cook is actually dead.))
DM62: The Blood Pits is the main fighting arena in the port, and currently closed for business. There's a one-eyed hobgoblin with a bucket of body parts and gore--he's picking up pieces from last night, obviously.
DM62: "We're closed, you two. Come back in about three hours."
Rylgos wrinkles her nose in disgust at the gore, giving a bit of a frown as she crosses her arms. Still, she stays back and lets Fyaria speak, what with her having the actual voice.
Fyaria: "Just here to check up on a fight last night. Our ship's cook was in one, human, knife fighter, shaggy brown hair. Remember him?" She answered, using a hand to indicate the man's general height.
DM62: "Remember him? Yeah, I'll never forget. He's the one who took on the elven kineticist." He growls. "That's why cleaning is taking so long today. Usually, our fighters end up in a few big pieces, instead of a million little ones."
Fyaria: "Heard he had died, didn't hear it was so messy." The drow answered, pausing a second. "Hmm... What's your policy on the dead fighter's belongings?" She asked, looking to get some benefit from this sudden job, besides the company, of course.
DM62: "Heh. I'm the guy who cleans up body parts. If I find anything, I usually keep it... but normally the owners have already ransacked the arena before I get here."
Fyaria: "Shame." Fyaria said, giving a shrug and turning to head off. "Guess that's all then, thanks." She said, starting back towards the taverns. Switching back to sign, she started a conversation with Rylgos on the way. "So, you were hired for the next job, hmm?"
Rylgos follows as they finally leave the gore pit, glancing occasionally at the surroundings as they walked, signing back at the questions. 'I guess that is one way to put it. The Lady requested me specifically to assist, so I guess it's more of a third-party hire.'
Fyaria: "Oh, interesting. Does that mean you know something we don't, perhaps?"
DM62: The first tavern they reach on their route from the fighting pits is The Dripping Cunt, a saloon made large enough to accomodate large creatures, where Fyaria herself accomodated several large creatures last night. And one huge creature.
Rylgos: 'If anything, even less, just enough to know we're hunting flayers. I'm just a hired blade, and I'm lucky I even know what your ship name is. Then again, not too easy to communicate when very little creatures speak sign,' she counters back, giving a bit of a shrug for emphasis.
Fyaria: "Yeah, I was going to ask about that. Lose your tongue somewhere? Cause that would be a shame." She signed back, giving a smirk and a lewd wink as they went up to the tavern. Fyaria led the way in, glancing about. She recognized a few of the employees about, but very few of the customers, this early in the morning.
DM62: The bartender, an ogre with multiple battle scars and a rather huge musculature, saunters over. He frowns down at Fyaria. "Hrmph. I didn't think you'd be moving for at least a few days. You're a resilient one, you are. Get you two anything? We don't start the shows for a few hours, yet."
Rylgos flushes a little bit at the woman's comment, her ears twitching slightly. 'The goddess had quite the... sense of humor about my situation, by what I could tell,' she comments, though again prepares to keep quiet as Fyaria's about to be distracted with their task.
Fyaria smirked at the bartender's comment, recognizing him from the night before. "Business this trip, not pleasure. Later tonight, maybe. Today though, I'm in search of a cook to replace the idiot that went and died on our crew. Don't want to poach yours, but do you know any others?"
DM62: "Hrm. Well... you might want to ask over at the First Bar. One of their bartenders is an out-of-work cook. She'll in town looking for something or other. Drugs or something, I dunno. Human. Chestnut-brown hair. Green eyes. Perky tits, but keeps 'em covered. The bitch."
Rylgos smirks a little at the ogre's comment but doesn't otherwise reply at that.
Fyaria gave a sultry smile, reaching up to draw her finger along the line of her own mostly-bared breasts. "A shame. Thanks for the info." She said, heading back out again.
DM62: The ogre unabashedly stares at her breasts, and watches the drow's ass as the group leaves the bar. A mind-flayer leads an elven male through the thoroughfare. The First Bar is within sight--it would seem that it just opened for business. The First Bar isn't built to accomodate large creatures, though Rylgos could probably work her way inside carefully. It's a more traditional saloon, made to accomodate medium creatures--and most of the sex happens in private rooms.
Rylgos follows Fyaria as she leaves, her back shuddering a bit as the ogre ogles her spinnerets. Still, upon reaching the next bar, she signs to Fyaria quickly. "Perhaps it's best if I stay outside, I'd probably surprise a few patrons not expecting a creature of my size in there."
Fyaria: Leading the way again, Fyaria paused just outside. "If you want. Stay close though, just in case." She signed. Just inside, She glanced towards the bar first, to see if the bartender on shift was the one she wanted to see.
Rylgos gives a nod in reply, holding her crossbow in her arm as she curls her legs into a sitting position.
DM62: The bartender is currently a drow male, cleaning the bar with a rag while waiting for customers. No one else is in sight, inside the bar.
Fyaria: Giving a short tsk, Fyaria strode up to the bar. "Morning. Have you seen the other bartender around, by chance? Human woman, brown hair, green eyes, great personality?" She asked, gripping her own chest at that last list item.
DM62: The man smirks at Fyaria. "Good morning, hon. Nice tits, but that's not exactly MY game. Rynil should be starting her shift within the hour." This drow is an extremely obvious homosexual male.
DM62: Outside the bar, Rylgos feels a hand patting her abdomen. "Um, excuse me?" She hears a female voice addressing her in Undercommon.
Rylgos had spent a good amount of time sitting watch, though the hand on her backside surprised her. She glances back, her hands having scooped up her crossbow but didn't wheel it around. She waited to see who or what it was before she tried to sign out the usual 'I'm sorry, I'm mute.'
DM62: The bartender offers Fyaria a drink while she waits.
DM62: Rylgos sees a short human female, dressed rather conservatively for this town, with just a hint of cleavage. Full breasts, chestnut hair, emerald eyes, and pale skin. "Um, hi!" ((We'll use this for now:
Rylgos blinks a little bit, realizing this might be the woman they were seeking. "Yes?" she quickly tries to sign out.
DM62: The human seems confused at the sign. "Er... I was wondering if maybe you'd be willing to sell a few of your unfertilized eggs? Not many appreciate this, but they're amazing when properly prepared." She looks up at the drider hopefully.
Fyaria: "Mmm, a shame on both counts." She said, taking a seat and the drink both, and sliding a coin back across in return. "So, not your game, eh? Do you pitch, or catch, then?"
Rylgos isn't too surprised at her lack of sign registration, and with a practiced movement pulls a pad of paper from her bag, scribbling out a quick note. "I certainly see no problem with that, though I also think there was a collegue of mine looking for you. She's currently inside."
DM62: The human looks a bit confused by the use of the note, then looks up at the drider. "Mute? I see. Well, I guess I'll just... go talk to your friend? I'll be right back!" She saunters into the bar, and at this point Fyaria notices her.
Rylgos flushes a bit in embarrassment as she nods. She relaxes slightly, her eyes returning to watching the street.
DM62: "Honey, I'm multi-talented." The bartender gives the drow female a wink. "Oh, and here's Rynil. I think she's the one you were looking for."
Fyaria: Fyaria chuckled, sipping her drink and glancing at the door. "Aye, she seems to match. Thanks for the drink." She said, lifting off her seat and heading towards the woman there. "Hi there, honey. I'm told you're quite a cook. How would you like a job cooking, hmm?"
DM62: The woman raises an eyebrow. "Can't do it just right now. Got something I need to take care of in town, first. Or... maybe you and your friend can help me with that? I'm Rynil, by the way." She offers Fyaria her hand.
Fyaria: "Fyaria." She answered, giving a shake. "Our ship is heading out in the morning I think, so we have until then. Let's head back outside, and hear what you need done."
DM62: "Um... Mar'telus, can you cover me for now? You still owe me from that party last month." She arranges to have her shift covered, and follows the drow outside. "The thing is, someone in town stole my spice rack. I need to have it stolen back. It has rare spices that I've collected, bought, and bartered for over the past decade."
Rylgos listens in as the two return outside, giving a quick signing to Fyaria to ask to translate for her. "Do you know who the thief was, or maybe the location it got stashed?"
Fyaria: Fyaria gives a nod, standing beside Rylgos. "Doesn't sound too difficult." She said, translating the drider's question for her.
DM62: "Yeah... that's the hard part. She's the Old Lady's secretary. A succubus. Usually assumes the form of a blonde female human." Her brows furrow. "When she leaves the Old Lady's stronghold, she stays at one of the nicer homes in the West Portion, which is a secure area for the extremely wealthy residents of Hades' Stone."
Fyaria: "Ah, I know of her. That's quite the high order, don't you think?" Fyaria answered, grimacing slightly. "Though we should at least know when she isn't home. Any idea if she keeps pets?"
Rylgos widens her eyes a little, having recognized the succubus from her hiring. "Secure from the ground at least," she signs over to Fyaria. "Perhaps with the right distractions, I could climb in and acquire the spice rack before she can notice?"
DM62: Rynil shrugs. "From what I hear, she's got some kind of menagerie in her basement. Everything from wargs to dryads. She's been known to host orgies for the town's elite from time to time, though not tonight."
Fyaria: "I was worried more about guard pets, but very interesting. At least the spice rack shouldn't be down there. Sounds like a second story entrance is the way to go, though. I wouldn't mind calling up one of the ship's mages to check for magical protections, though. Think the captain would go for that?"
Rylgos shrugs. 'Compared to suffering the breakfast of today, I think she'd try anything.'
DM62: Rynil's eyes get a little wider. "Erm... there's one more minor detail. The West Portion is actually a wild-magic zone. So... just be careful with using magic over there. There have been... incidents. Recently, it was an overpowered Enlarge spell used during coitus."
Fyaria: "Well, then I doubt she's got any magical protections up, the wild magic would make sure they didn’t work very well, or very long." Fyaria said, glancing at the port's timekeeper. "She should be on shift at the Lady's house now, as well. No better time than the present, shall we be off?"
Rylgos nods as well. "At the very least, scouting mission, if not infiltration. Either way, it is a good time."
DM62: Rynil raises an eyebrow at this. "It IS a secure community. We'll have to sneak or bluff our way past the guards at the gate."
Fyaria: "Not a problem." Fyaria answered confidently. "Especially since we shouldn't need to use the gate at all, right Rylgos?"
Rylgos nods in reply with a smirk, her back legs rubbing a bit. "Indeed."

DM62: "Yes, Captain, begging your pardon, but it's the cook! Apparently he split off from his group last night and never came back. The word is that he tried his hand at a knife-fight for money, and lost. And, no offense, but there aren't very many good cooks among the drow, Captain." The yuan-ti indicates the rancid food on her plate.
DM62: ((I approve, lurker. :3 ))
[Private] Elise -> DM62: what's the slutty drow's name again, Faeydra?
[Private] DM62 -> Elise: Fyaria. And while she IS slutty, she's also a very proficient thief. And she's one of two crew members who really know Hades's Stone, the other being Bas.
Elise: "I see," Elise said, her frown deepening as she inspected the food herself. Glancing about at the few other crew around, she made mental note of who was doing what for duties for the day. "Fyaria, head into the port and confirm our cook is dead. If that's the case, find a replacement or two, and bring them here so I can meet them. Take Rylgos with you."
DM62: The drow snaps to attention. She still looks a little tired and a little sore, but much better than she was last night. "Aye-aye, Captain. Who's Rylgos?"
Elise: "The new crewmember you were eyeing on the way home last night." The captain answered with a smirk, nodding towards the drider.
Fyaria blushes deeply. "Aye, ma'am."
Rylgos perks up a bit as well, having been near the Captain at this point. Managing to catch her attention, she signed a quick 'Yes captain'. She gets a slight flush at Elise's comment but takes it in stride, straightening her equipment harness for a second now she had to leave the ship.
Elise: "And make sure the new cook is actually interested in the job. Nice as it would be to have one less share to split, I don't want some slave cook trying to poison our food, hmm?" Elise said, giving the food one more disgusted look before leaving it alone, heading back to her room briefly to gather one of her scrolls.
DM62: The group hears a roar. At the other end of the galley, Bas is holding a female drow against the bulkhead by her throat. "YOU STUPID BITCH! The cook disappears, apparently dead in a knife-fight, and I have to find out the next morning?! And the Captain has to find out at breakfast! I should pop out your eyes!" The female drow squirms under the first mate's fury.
Rylgos winces, her ears twitching at the screams and yells from the other side of the galley. She glances towards Fyaria, figuring she'd be getting up soon to do the task but leaving her to her, er, breakfast.
DM62: As it turns out, the drow is the officer of the deck from the previous night.
Fyaria signs to Rylgos, "Nice to meet you. I've got to get my gear from the crew hold, and weapons from the armoury."
Rylgos seems surprised at Fyaria's choice to use sign, and quickly signs back 'I will meet you at the boarding ramp, then,' soon scuttling off to that location until Fyaria's ready.
Elise walked past the pair into the hall calmly, not even sparing the drow a glance as the minotaur tore into her. Gathering the scroll she wanted from her room, she went back to the galley, calmly sitting at the officer's table and using the scroll to summon enough food for the officers, once things calmed down. It was a little bland, but much better than the slop whoever decided to try their hand at breakfast had made.
DM62: Bas stops by the officer's table long enough to apologize for the incident and explain that he'll be "addressing the issue" with the drow, personally. He then hauls the drow off to his quarters for punishment--which means that his personal slave will get a much-needed break, at least for a day or two.
Fyaria buckles on leather armor and retrieves her six daggers from the armory--two she carries in the open, and then the four that she hides about her person. She does not take long to reach the ramp.
Elise: Elise gave a nod. "Take some food with you, it won't last for long." She said simply.
DM62: Bas nods, taking a large handful of food with him... and stuffing a napkin into the mouth of his detainee.
Rylgos had taken a second to retrieve the rest of her gear from her hammock, but had still beaten Fyaria to the ramp, waiting for the drow patiently. When she arrives, she gives a nod of acnolegement.
[Rename] Elise -> Fyaria
Fyaria: "Alright then." Fyaria signed, heading down the ramp and into town.
Rylgos nods, shifting her crossbow a little on the strap now hanging from her shoulders- ready in case she needs it, but still loose and non-threatening.
DM62: ((Fyaria can think of three places she might check: the harbour master, local taverns, or the slave auction. She could also try recruiting from a restaurant, but restaurant owners don't typically like that.))
Fyaria: ((gonna head to the fighting pits first, confirm the cook is actually dead.))
DM62: The Blood Pits is the main fighting arena in the port, and currently closed for business. There's a one-eyed hobgoblin with a bucket of body parts and gore--he's picking up pieces from last night, obviously.
DM62: "We're closed, you two. Come back in about three hours."
Rylgos wrinkles her nose in disgust at the gore, giving a bit of a frown as she crosses her arms. Still, she stays back and lets Fyaria speak, what with her having the actual voice.
Fyaria: "Just here to check up on a fight last night. Our ship's cook was in one, human, knife fighter, shaggy brown hair. Remember him?" She answered, using a hand to indicate the man's general height.
DM62: "Remember him? Yeah, I'll never forget. He's the one who took on the elven kineticist." He growls. "That's why cleaning is taking so long today. Usually, our fighters end up in a few big pieces, instead of a million little ones."
Fyaria: "Heard he had died, didn't hear it was so messy." The drow answered, pausing a second. "Hmm... What's your policy on the dead fighter's belongings?" She asked, looking to get some benefit from this sudden job, besides the company, of course.
DM62: "Heh. I'm the guy who cleans up body parts. If I find anything, I usually keep it... but normally the owners have already ransacked the arena before I get here."
Fyaria: "Shame." Fyaria said, giving a shrug and turning to head off. "Guess that's all then, thanks." She said, starting back towards the taverns. Switching back to sign, she started a conversation with Rylgos on the way. "So, you were hired for the next job, hmm?"
Rylgos follows as they finally leave the gore pit, glancing occasionally at the surroundings as they walked, signing back at the questions. 'I guess that is one way to put it. The Lady requested me specifically to assist, so I guess it's more of a third-party hire.'
Fyaria: "Oh, interesting. Does that mean you know something we don't, perhaps?"
DM62: The first tavern they reach on their route from the fighting pits is The Dripping Cunt, a saloon made large enough to accomodate large creatures, where Fyaria herself accomodated several large creatures last night. And one huge creature.
Rylgos: 'If anything, even less, just enough to know we're hunting flayers. I'm just a hired blade, and I'm lucky I even know what your ship name is. Then again, not too easy to communicate when very little creatures speak sign,' she counters back, giving a bit of a shrug for emphasis.
Fyaria: "Yeah, I was going to ask about that. Lose your tongue somewhere? Cause that would be a shame." She signed back, giving a smirk and a lewd wink as they went up to the tavern. Fyaria led the way in, glancing about. She recognized a few of the employees about, but very few of the customers, this early in the morning.
DM62: The bartender, an ogre with multiple battle scars and a rather huge musculature, saunters over. He frowns down at Fyaria. "Hrmph. I didn't think you'd be moving for at least a few days. You're a resilient one, you are. Get you two anything? We don't start the shows for a few hours, yet."
Rylgos flushes a little bit at the woman's comment, her ears twitching slightly. 'The goddess had quite the... sense of humor about my situation, by what I could tell,' she comments, though again prepares to keep quiet as Fyaria's about to be distracted with their task.
Fyaria smirked at the bartender's comment, recognizing him from the night before. "Business this trip, not pleasure. Later tonight, maybe. Today though, I'm in search of a cook to replace the idiot that went and died on our crew. Don't want to poach yours, but do you know any others?"
DM62: "Hrm. Well... you might want to ask over at the First Bar. One of their bartenders is an out-of-work cook. She'll in town looking for something or other. Drugs or something, I dunno. Human. Chestnut-brown hair. Green eyes. Perky tits, but keeps 'em covered. The bitch."
Rylgos smirks a little at the ogre's comment but doesn't otherwise reply at that.
Fyaria gave a sultry smile, reaching up to draw her finger along the line of her own mostly-bared breasts. "A shame. Thanks for the info." She said, heading back out again.
DM62: The ogre unabashedly stares at her breasts, and watches the drow's ass as the group leaves the bar. A mind-flayer leads an elven male through the thoroughfare. The First Bar is within sight--it would seem that it just opened for business. The First Bar isn't built to accomodate large creatures, though Rylgos could probably work her way inside carefully. It's a more traditional saloon, made to accomodate medium creatures--and most of the sex happens in private rooms.
Rylgos follows Fyaria as she leaves, her back shuddering a bit as the ogre ogles her spinnerets. Still, upon reaching the next bar, she signs to Fyaria quickly. "Perhaps it's best if I stay outside, I'd probably surprise a few patrons not expecting a creature of my size in there."
Fyaria: Leading the way again, Fyaria paused just outside. "If you want. Stay close though, just in case." She signed. Just inside, She glanced towards the bar first, to see if the bartender on shift was the one she wanted to see.
Rylgos gives a nod in reply, holding her crossbow in her arm as she curls her legs into a sitting position.
DM62: The bartender is currently a drow male, cleaning the bar with a rag while waiting for customers. No one else is in sight, inside the bar.
Fyaria: Giving a short tsk, Fyaria strode up to the bar. "Morning. Have you seen the other bartender around, by chance? Human woman, brown hair, green eyes, great personality?" She asked, gripping her own chest at that last list item.
DM62: The man smirks at Fyaria. "Good morning, hon. Nice tits, but that's not exactly MY game. Rynil should be starting her shift within the hour." This drow is an extremely obvious homosexual male.
DM62: Outside the bar, Rylgos feels a hand patting her abdomen. "Um, excuse me?" She hears a female voice addressing her in Undercommon.
Rylgos had spent a good amount of time sitting watch, though the hand on her backside surprised her. She glances back, her hands having scooped up her crossbow but didn't wheel it around. She waited to see who or what it was before she tried to sign out the usual 'I'm sorry, I'm mute.'
DM62: The bartender offers Fyaria a drink while she waits.
DM62: Rylgos sees a short human female, dressed rather conservatively for this town, with just a hint of cleavage. Full breasts, chestnut hair, emerald eyes, and pale skin. "Um, hi!" ((We'll use this for now:
You must be registered to see the links
))Rylgos blinks a little bit, realizing this might be the woman they were seeking. "Yes?" she quickly tries to sign out.
DM62: The human seems confused at the sign. "Er... I was wondering if maybe you'd be willing to sell a few of your unfertilized eggs? Not many appreciate this, but they're amazing when properly prepared." She looks up at the drider hopefully.
Fyaria: "Mmm, a shame on both counts." She said, taking a seat and the drink both, and sliding a coin back across in return. "So, not your game, eh? Do you pitch, or catch, then?"
Rylgos isn't too surprised at her lack of sign registration, and with a practiced movement pulls a pad of paper from her bag, scribbling out a quick note. "I certainly see no problem with that, though I also think there was a collegue of mine looking for you. She's currently inside."
DM62: The human looks a bit confused by the use of the note, then looks up at the drider. "Mute? I see. Well, I guess I'll just... go talk to your friend? I'll be right back!" She saunters into the bar, and at this point Fyaria notices her.
Rylgos flushes a bit in embarrassment as she nods. She relaxes slightly, her eyes returning to watching the street.
DM62: "Honey, I'm multi-talented." The bartender gives the drow female a wink. "Oh, and here's Rynil. I think she's the one you were looking for."
Fyaria: Fyaria chuckled, sipping her drink and glancing at the door. "Aye, she seems to match. Thanks for the drink." She said, lifting off her seat and heading towards the woman there. "Hi there, honey. I'm told you're quite a cook. How would you like a job cooking, hmm?"
DM62: The woman raises an eyebrow. "Can't do it just right now. Got something I need to take care of in town, first. Or... maybe you and your friend can help me with that? I'm Rynil, by the way." She offers Fyaria her hand.
Fyaria: "Fyaria." She answered, giving a shake. "Our ship is heading out in the morning I think, so we have until then. Let's head back outside, and hear what you need done."
DM62: "Um... Mar'telus, can you cover me for now? You still owe me from that party last month." She arranges to have her shift covered, and follows the drow outside. "The thing is, someone in town stole my spice rack. I need to have it stolen back. It has rare spices that I've collected, bought, and bartered for over the past decade."
Rylgos listens in as the two return outside, giving a quick signing to Fyaria to ask to translate for her. "Do you know who the thief was, or maybe the location it got stashed?"
Fyaria: Fyaria gives a nod, standing beside Rylgos. "Doesn't sound too difficult." She said, translating the drider's question for her.
DM62: "Yeah... that's the hard part. She's the Old Lady's secretary. A succubus. Usually assumes the form of a blonde female human." Her brows furrow. "When she leaves the Old Lady's stronghold, she stays at one of the nicer homes in the West Portion, which is a secure area for the extremely wealthy residents of Hades' Stone."
Fyaria: "Ah, I know of her. That's quite the high order, don't you think?" Fyaria answered, grimacing slightly. "Though we should at least know when she isn't home. Any idea if she keeps pets?"
Rylgos widens her eyes a little, having recognized the succubus from her hiring. "Secure from the ground at least," she signs over to Fyaria. "Perhaps with the right distractions, I could climb in and acquire the spice rack before she can notice?"
DM62: Rynil shrugs. "From what I hear, she's got some kind of menagerie in her basement. Everything from wargs to dryads. She's been known to host orgies for the town's elite from time to time, though not tonight."
Fyaria: "I was worried more about guard pets, but very interesting. At least the spice rack shouldn't be down there. Sounds like a second story entrance is the way to go, though. I wouldn't mind calling up one of the ship's mages to check for magical protections, though. Think the captain would go for that?"
Rylgos shrugs. 'Compared to suffering the breakfast of today, I think she'd try anything.'
DM62: Rynil's eyes get a little wider. "Erm... there's one more minor detail. The West Portion is actually a wild-magic zone. So... just be careful with using magic over there. There have been... incidents. Recently, it was an overpowered Enlarge spell used during coitus."
Fyaria: "Well, then I doubt she's got any magical protections up, the wild magic would make sure they didn’t work very well, or very long." Fyaria said, glancing at the port's timekeeper. "She should be on shift at the Lady's house now, as well. No better time than the present, shall we be off?"
Rylgos nods as well. "At the very least, scouting mission, if not infiltration. Either way, it is a good time."
DM62: Rynil raises an eyebrow at this. "It IS a secure community. We'll have to sneak or bluff our way past the guards at the gate."
Fyaria: "Not a problem." Fyaria answered confidently. "Especially since we shouldn't need to use the gate at all, right Rylgos?"
Rylgos nods in reply with a smirk, her back legs rubbing a bit. "Indeed."
