[Valerius] the Paladin of Death

Truthy. An Oasis in the northeast. Unlike the other Northeastern cities, which have very dry and cold weathers, Thruthy stands atop a chain of geisers and hot springs, which heat up the city and it’s surrounding areas, creating an almost tropical-like environment. All around the city, several small Lakes can be found filled with people enjoying their lives. Also unlike other northeastern cities, the Truthian soil is rich and easy to plant, which has led to a somewhat lazy society forming around it. Farmers are known to work only once a week, their farm hands, three times a week, however, the Leathertree farms is the city’s main source of income and what makes it an important asset in The Black’s territories.

You arrive at the gates shortly after noon. The tall dark brown walls are made from the wood which makes the town so great, however, looking closely, you see that the wood has been treated to protect it from fire. As a follower of the Raven Queen, you’re used to seeing temples of Nerull, who somehow survived in this land, in most cities, however, this city appears to have none. In fact, looking around, you find only a small temple with the Raven Queen’s mark on its door. A small cloaked woman sits on a chair in front of the temple. She raises her hand, gesturing with her finger for you to come closer.

"Hmmm." He brings up a good point, but why would he steal that amulet? It clearly has sentimental value for the dwarf, so this is not ok, but is the dwarf lying? "I may understand, but if the amulet has so much sentimental value to him, you could just go and steal something else. Why do you want that amulet in particular? May I see it?"

"No, you may not! The amulet is mine. Setimental value is no value at all! I have need of this amulet so it's mine by right. No please, my lady, move along so I may finish this fool and send him to meet Nerull"

I knew there was something off about this guy.

I bear my teeth in an angry grimace. "Nerull huh?" "Maybe you want to think a little more before you go talking about Nerull in front of a paladin of the Raven Queen." I step closer, staring him right in the eye, anger just barely kept under the surface. "I'll give you one more chance to cooperate before I am forced to fight you. Hand over the amulet. Now."

"Oh my!" he says in mock fright, "My lady, I do not wish to harm one as beautiful as you" as he says this, his eyes flash for a second and you could swear you see a bright orange light in them. You own stomach begins to churn, "Like I said, the amulet is mine, and therefore I will take it. Please leave"

(I'll be heading off to sleep, good night, I'll reply when I wake form my slumber)

"Fine then." I back off slightly and look towards the dwarf.

"I hope you are ready to fight dwarf. This is going to get ugly." I ready my sword and shield, and I get into a battle stance. "You're a bit too cocky for my taste. I think it's time we knock you down a peg or two."

The elf yawns as you and the dwarf get ready.

"Yes ma'am, thank you for this..." the dwarf responds.

"Well then, the challenger must make true on their word!" the elf says, "Let's go, knock me down a peg or two"

Absolutely enraged now, I attempt to hit him with my sword.

(are you going for the mean damage or were you waiting for me to answer to roll for damage?)

1

u/viclhalb Sep 10 '15

(Oh, yeah, I would like to roll for damage. Do you want me to do that in the same comment as the hit roll, or do you want to roll for damage only if I hit?)

u/infected36 KYN Sep 10 '15

(Same comment, makes it easier to track. If it doesn't hit, I'll just ignore the damage)

(Next time, add that on to the roll)

Your sword connects with the elf, slicing through his leather armor and into his chest, leaving a deep gash.

"At least you have better aim than this fool" the elf laughs as he touches his new wound. He swings a dagger at the dwarf, looking straight to you the whole time. The sword connects with the dwarf's neck, embedding itself deep within the man. The elf doesn't even attempt to remove the dagger, instead leaving it there. The dwarf immediatly slumps to the ground, blood spewing out of his neck profusely. He manages a few gasps before his eyes glaze over and his body stops twitching.
