The interogation
Subject Turn
Sorry I did not get a turn out last night. My wife decided that I need to take thing up to the church for the rummage sale they are having this weekend.
I am swamped at work this week (someone is on vacation and I am covering her job as well as mine) and I have to do apherisis tonight, so I do not know if I will get a turn out today.

Church, blood donation, over worked. All the old tired cliche's of why you can't keep up your end of the bargain. Here we are, days from the end of our first adventure, and we need to wait on you. We have questions we want answered. Who was the man in black? Will Rochelle ever be united with her betrothed? Will Ran give into the secret lust he holds for Rochelle? Will Salix ever give into the secret lust he holds for Harp? Will Surin ever be allowed to sit at the grown ups table? Will Harp's orc father ever come back to make amends for raping his mother? Will Cai's evil twin Skippy return to town to cause problems? This, and more, next week on "Kalevan's Castaways".

Will Harp survive the social disease he gets from his horse?
Will Harp be able to breathe once his mouth is sewn shut?
Will the party survive the blue bolts from heaven that Harps loud mouth has drawn from the gods?
Tune in next week.

Harp will be able to breathe about as well as he currently does with his lips strategically placed between the cheeks of a vengeful, spiteful, power mad diety that has no sense of humor.

"My lady, I am very grateful for the assistance you offered me yesterday. I was in much pain and you eased that. Heronin is a lucky man to have you."
Rochelle blushes at the compliment. ?I was just so worried about you?and the others? she adds after a moment's hesitation. ?I have seen too many people die trying to protect me. I will be glad to get somewhere safe, but I am starting to feel that I am safe with you.? She turns away, heading towards the makeshift kitchen they have set up to help with the next meal.
Ran pulls Salix aside.
"Salix, you have been continuously wise and perceptive on this journey of ours. I feel that you may be the best person to question our prisoner and see if we can get any useful information from him. Whether we do or not, we need to bind him securely to one of the extra horses and bring him back with us. We will need to turn him over to the order for further questioning. He may have more information about the man from our dream."
Salix nods and heads over to the captive. He kneels down and starts to question the man. ?Do you speak common?? The man nods. ?Who are you?? is the next question. The man replies in halting common, with the same accent that Kendrick had. ?I am number 2? he says tersely. ?And who was number 1?? ?Kendrick? the man spits with disgust. ?Leader let you down, huh? is Salix's response. Over the minute or so Salix and the man converse quietly, Salix bending his will on the man, trying to convince him to give up the info he has. (Diplomacy check, 10 rolls, opposed roll with +10 to roll, success on all rolls)
After talking for about 10 minutes, Salix claps the man on the back and goes over to the ?kitchen?. He takes up a plate and loads it with food. He grabs a water skin and goes back to the man and starts to feed him. When he is done he nods at the man and the man nods back. Salix then goes to Ran. ?I have some to tell, good and bad. I think that all of us should move a bit a way so that he may not overhear us.? Ran nods. He calls Bel over. ?Can Ebon keep in eye on our strange friend and let us know if he tries anything?? The ranger nods and Ran calls the rest of the party to a spot about a hundred feet away. ?Salix has a report on our captive.?
At Ran's nod Salix tells the party what he has found. ?Well he is a Githyanki but he does not have a name. He just goes by Number 2. Kendrick was the leader of his party so he qualified for a name. I guess in their society, you do not have a name until you reach a certain status. He was the second in command in Kendrick's kreel so he went by the name Number 2. He does not know who hired them but they were paid well. Those gems were their down payment. When they brought the head of the human girl to where they were supposed to meet their contact, they would get more. He did not know how much more or the name of the contact. Kendrick kept all that info to himself. The piece of paper we found was the contract. I am fairly sure he told me all he knew. He was despondent that we defeated them so easily.? Salix snorts a bit at this.
OODM: Any one want to add anything else? Any other questions you want posed to this guy?

Subject The interogation
OOC: I hope someone suggests reading the contract.
Mark, would #2 have known where the contact point was they were supposed to go to?
Karl, might I suggest Salix see if #2 can help identify any of the items we found (vial in particular).
Harp will nod and grunt at all this, prefering to send this minion of Hextor to the hell he deserves.
From: Karl
Subject Interogation
Salix would think it a very good idea, especially if he has been able to build up any rapport with the captive, to ask him what each of the vials and other items are, or what they do. He will use any skills available to him to discern whether he is getting cooperation and truth.
If the contract isn't in common, he will suggest taking it and turning it over to Quarion.
From: Mark
Subject Interogation
Salix returns to Number 2 and asks him if he would mind telling them what the items were.
He shruggs. "The green vial does some small healing. The red vials allow the person to breath fire and the silver vial makes you move fast. The bracers were used for protection. I know nothing about Kendrick's armor. He kept to himself."
Fal looks over the contract and it is not in common.
From: Randy
Subject Interogation
OOC: Is it bad that I read this and started to laugh thinking "Who's Number 2 working for!"
From: Mark
Subject Diplomacy
I may not have been very clear.
Salix made 10 diplomacy rolls, and Number 2 made 10 opposing Diplomacy rolls. Salix had +10 to his rolls, +8 for ranks etc. and +2 for circumstance bonus. He tied or beat every roll Number 2 made.

Subject Magic Items
I really should not do this stuff when my rules guru is at Grandma and Grandpa's house. :)
OK the magic items.
Light green potion is CLW
Red potion is Elixir of Fire Breath
Silver potion is Potion of Haste
The chain armor is abjuration faint.
The bracers are moderate conjuration.
The amulet is faint evocation.
I think that that was it.

OOC: Mark, do "we" remember who we took the bracer's off of? Mage? Kendrick? The evil #2?
From: Mark
Subject Magic Items
Well it was probably from the two guys who were not wearing any armor.
