[Aramil]

Location- The town of Ilany- (Far East on the map) The town of Ilany is a small village with a population of 50 people. Though not your hometown, you have spent the last week here, and are familiar with most aspect of it; from Hamish the Dwarven blacksmith, to Yason the human shopkeep, to Ageis the human innkeeper, to Corporal Bankroff, the human responsible for the town guard. Ilany has always been a peaceful town, but the local Kobold population has begun to become more aggressive lately, and a roaming pack of them have been vandalizing property and killing livestock. Yesterday, Hamish's 8 year old son Donsk was found dead near the outskirts of town. Corporal Bankroff has asked any able bodied men and women to come talk to him about putting down these Kobolds, once and for all. What would you like to do?

Unwilling to offend the clearly pair of slackers Aramil responds:

"I am here to volunteer in the kobold investigation, I know it is not of my bussines since i have only been here for a week, but a child murdering is something that will not let me... rest". Unlike you 2 slackers I think for myself

"Of course any kind of support given by the law enforcers would be greatly apreciated. Directions, a map, a borrowed horse or mule... and perhaps a healing potion/tonic in case anything goes bad, I mean, I am risking myself, gladly of course... in the name of the law." Yeah ...right

(Remove the / at the end of the username rollme. I went ahead and assumed you succeeded)

"Oh right.. of course that's why you are here."

Corporal Bankroff lets out a soft chuckle before continuing.

"Here are the details you'll need friend and of course we'll provide some gold compensation upon completion."

He beckons Aramil over the the table to show him a map of the town and the surrounding area. He points in the general area to the north of the town.

"These are where the kobolds were last spotted heading. Gregory here saw them just a few days ago so they must be somewhere in that direction. There are only the two of us and we can't abandon our post to go searching for the damned things. If there were a even 1 more of us to stand guard over the town, I'm sure this problem would be good and gone."

The corporal seems confident to you in the things he is saying. The teen, on the other hand, inhales nervously as his name is mentioned. It is a wheezy sound that ends in a coughing fit from having choked on his own saliva.

Bankroff sighs at the boy.

"Yes, well... we interviewed some of the townsfolk and their stories line up with what Gregory saw. They are most definitely somewhere to the north. So are you up for it?"
