Let's play a role-playing game

Alright then. I will relate this information to the party and then raise his END and hopefully he will recover and I can finish healing him while I question him.

OK. You raise his END by 4 for 10 minutes.

Unless someone has an objection, 4 hours have passed. The sun is getting a bit low in the sky. The weather stays nice, but clouds are starting to roll in from the west.

Not a soul has passed by on the road.

ok quick, before he wakes up what do we want to ask him? I know we want to ask him about food and water sources and assure him that he will not be killed. I also want to ask him about himself and his tribe and why we were attacked and what we might want to do in order to avoid being attacked again. I am not interested in tracking more down and killing them, I just want to get to Getha safely and quickly.

That’s a pretty decent list of questions. Whether you get honest (or civil) answers remains to be seen.

An intelligent discussion on the merits of finer ballet techniques is probably not in the cards.

Not that he couldn’t attend a white tie affair, of course.

I’ll pass on my knowledge of First Aid to everyone.

The list of questions look fine. How about:

  • does he know who we are?
  • has he seen us before?
  • would he act as our guide for a bit?

(this last is risky, so don’t do it unless we all agree!)

Are any of the Gargun possessions worth taking?

Not really. Their armor won’t fit you, their food is digusting, their weapons fill you with revulsion, and they have no money.

I walk away for a while after NAF explains the whole give it weapons plan, to cool off. (Aside : shoudl I bother explaining why? Do you guys want to ask my issues with the Gargun?)

I, for one, would like an explanation?

NAF, any chance you can remember a spell that would make it forget we ever met him. Perhaps one that may have been similar to the one that was put on us, that made us forget everything.

To santo : Look, there’s a history there. The tribe I live with is not that of my birth. If I stick around, I WILL kill that one there. Its the fault of fowlspawn like that that I’m not favored of my tribe.

Well good then, you can challage him to single combat when we release him.

[oog] I feel like I am doing my part as long as I do my best to do the right thing, if you kill him before I have a chance to set him free but after we question him I won’t complain[/oog]

[oog] Thats why i’m having my character step away. I HATE them, but I’m not unreasonable…I don’t want to affect your plans. Just don’t expect me to deal with them, is all [/oog]

I’d much rather tear the little bastard up while still tied down, but if you need me, I’ll be about a quarter mile off.

Just repeating this because it looks like it may have been missed:

Four hours have passed. The little bugger wakes up, his shock having abated. Koldanar is wandering around the wilderness. It’s getting dark.

NAF, you have ten minutes to speak to the critter.

He does not.

Ok, let’s get this party started.

The first round of questions, in order.

-assure him that he will not be killed. Explain that we will heal him and set him free when we are done talking to him.
-ask him about food and water sources nearby

  • ask him about himself and his tribe (as much detail as he will give us)
    -ask why we were attacked and what we might want to do in order to avoid being attacked again
  • does he know who we are?
  • has he seen us before?
  • would he act as our guide for a bit? (I think this is an interesting idea and no one has objected to it, so I figure we might as well ask.)

Anyone else have anything they want to add to the list before the next round of questions?

I sympathise with Koldanar. These Gargun do not abide by our ethics (and he’s been personally damaged by them).
Nevertheless I agree with Saint Valamin. We do the morally right thing, even if others don’t.

If Koldanar would like to have nothing to with it, I quite understand. It is decent of him to let us continue.

And if we make an agreement with the Gargun to let it go, and it doesn’t stick to it, I will feel fully justified in hacking it to bits. :stuck_out_tongue:

Yes, yes, but apart from that?! :slight_smile:

“Set me free, you ugly son of a whore who sleeps with diseased yaks and eats goat turds with maggots and…” (Continues in this way with insults that would bring tears to a Pit veteren’s eyes. Oh, and he spits when he talks.)

“Filthy humans lie! Set me free now!”

“Water in river. Food asking me questions.”

“Tribe all dead. You kill. Queen dead. Make new lodge.”

“Hungry. Feed me, not attack. One bite of your thigh, yummy!”

  • has he seen us before?
    [/QUOTE]

“Humans all look alike to me. Look like food.”

“Set me free, I show you river.”

You mean the pretty pink ribbons that they’re wearing? :wink:
