"We can make a logical deduction. Starting with the oldest gallows on the south bank would be a logical place to start."

OOC: Remind me, how long until the next full moon?

Viales contemplates this facet of information. The connotation of this location isn't lost on him. There were three sacrifices so far. One more to complete the circle. How many gallow sites like this in Heavensholm? "Given the apparent devotion to Setek, where he was hanged would be a most logi...

"I had entertained that notion, and it is plausible. But something about this just doesn't sit well within." Knowledge Arcana: 1d20+11 The area where the gallows is, is it a well travelled area or is it somewhat out of sight of the main traffic? Basically, was the body buried here so that...

Viales will roll as well:

Perception: 1d20+9

He'll also fire a detect magic, just for good measure.

Viales plays the silent family friend, watching Timidity bending the officer to her will through sheer emotion. She misses it, but he arches a brow at her response. Humans are weird. Tumefying with emotion, yet can act completely detached from them, even in such circumstances. Revenge is a decent mo...

For the purpose of expediency, we can skip the guard interaction until Timidity has or hasn't got the information

Viales will follow TImidity in, so that she's not alone. Playing the bewildered family friend. To confirm, he is back in the disguise spell form.

Seeing as this idea turn up less than expected, Viales moves onto the next one in the deck. "I concur, this has not been as fruitful as I expected. At least we have a name. A suggestion is to go to one of the dingier sections of town where the crimes took place and see if there's any chatter. W...

More thoughts incoming, but Knowledge (History) on that beetle pin, if it has any significance.

Roll: 1d20+9

Viales Perception: 1d20+9

Timidity Perception: 1d20+4

Concurred

Admiring the blade, he feels a tinge of jealousy. His is well balanced, but not as well as Zandorian's weapon. Not to mention the elegant inlay and guard, and the better material... Okay, he's ardently jealous. Nirili's question breaks him out of his self-induced emotion. Meeting her gaze whilst sch...

As the other two are sorting out the injury, Viales steps over to Zandorian after he finishes the flourishes.

"You seem have made an art of the rapier. May I?" He holds out a hand, keen to look closer at the source of their latest debacle.

I thought by minimalising the description, it would lessen the hurt. But alas, like Firion's soul, my emotions are ripped apart by the brutality of his death by the skull of that fucker. Fair enough. I'll let Grodech post, as I think we highlighted before we would take an NPC apiece, and I took Timi...

I'm unilaterally cursed. On the tabletop, I just lost a character to a soul suck from a lich and the followup save by rolling low. With regards to the current fight, I'm thinking Zandorian moves to Myles to be across from Nirili to get the flanking bonus, and then spend a Panache point for double da...

Myles fight:

-1GP (noted) for coin shot
-5s for library entry

Coin Shot cast

8/8 points left

Viales aims the gold coin at Myles' throat, hoping he will choke on his words. Ranged touch attack: 1d20+8 (gold coin is counted as masterwork so adds +1) Damage if hit (Bludgeoning & Piercing): 1d8+2 For the sake of quickness, he will also declare Dodge against Myles. Edit 30.1: Adding the subs...

Viales scoffs. "I guess words will not sway you. Perhaps actions will, instead."


OOC: Rolling for initiative: 1d20+8

Would you allow a standard action, given this is quite clearly descending into a fight. Either way, he'll be casting Coin Shot on the gold piece and throw it at Myles.

Viales, having been observing the interaction with acute awareness, steps up. Putting a hand up to stop the snivelly man, concerned that he might be going for reinforcements. "Calm it there, no need to be so hasty. They're just having a polite conversation." He glances back to observe Myle...

"Better to part with it than with your life." Viales pipes up

Viales stands off to the side, fingers lazily tapping against his sash whilst he flips a gold coin in his other hand.

Viales pipes up. "We take an assumingly non-offensive posture. Perhaps admiring the view, or feigning that we have walked some distance and are lost."

2pm works for me, gives us time to scout out the area and check what the lay of the land is.

"The frequency I have sat on my tail is far less than humans having their fingers trapped in doors." He quickly retorts. With the search yielding nothing, Viales sits on his haunches, adopting a pensive look. "Indeed, whoever did the deed also felt the need to take any information wi...
