And kobold can vary, I suppose. Some are wild and can't talk, some talk in screechy little cries. Perhaps that's why adventurers are always hitting them with things.))

The group continue to walk through the dank tunnel. Rats scratch here and there, and there is a constant dripping on water from the damp walls. Rise shivers and huddles close to anyone. John stops again. "Hey", he calls, pointing ahead, "What's that?".

(OOC: Bald Man's Goat. Great joke DF. Really made me laugh my f'n *** off.)

Before the party lays a corpse. It's chest ripped open with a stence of dead emerging from it. The ribs, broken off. No legs nor arms can be find and it's face and skull is unidentifieable.
"What foul beast could have done this?" Locke asks himself.
"I don't know," John replies. "Let's just hope it's only one as this corpse seems to be lying here for a while. It might be hungry."
"Then why didn't it dragged Verde's apprentice to it's lair?" Locke wonders. He blinks his eyes, grabs his bottle of water, takes a sip and draws his Demon Sword. "Let's head down these caves to find whatever's lurking inside."
The party continues into the dark caves, only their flame to keep the light in.

{OOC: I am at a loss for something...Rywho? Gem? anything?}

Jenna is still asleep!

 Atikkus is a little behind the others, looking to something i his hand, after a while Locke notices that. "Hey, what are you doing?"
 Atikkus looked to him "Remember when you asked 'What foul beast could have done this', about that skeleton?" Locke nodded "So?".
 "So I decided to ask him." Atikkus showed what he was holding, it was the corpse's head.

   Flames lick the night sky as they strive to survive the rain, standing amist the burning buildings is the cloaked man.  lying about him in twisted shapes and forms are burned bodies.  Crackling of inferno split wood echos through the falling droplets, a cough rouses the man's attention, walking over to the point of origin reveals that the sounds came from a poor child burned heavily on his left side, along with patches along his right arm.  Looking into the child's eyes life seems to be struggling within him, kneeling down the figure lays his right hand over the child's throat, the sound of snapping bone and cartalige overcome the flame and die away quickly, leaving the body lifeless and broken.  removing his hand the man stands up slowly, stretching out his right arm with his hand vertical, chanting begins to come from him.


   Lupine walks into the inn and immediatly drops on all fours to shakes the water from his fur, he watches as his companions go about their own little tasks, deciding that rest was a better option he crawls over to a corner and curls up as comfortably as possible, avoiding as much stress on his ribs as he can.  Lupine begins to doze as ghost words begins to chant around him, his ears fall back and he snaps his head up and looks about.  The words fade and he comes to realize that he is the only one hearing these words, he shrugs it off as stress and rests his head down again.  Soon after the words return, but more audible and clear, again his head shoots up yet the words do not fade, he asks uneasily, "doth any of thou hear words coming not from a mouth?"  Lupine has yet to realize that he is the only one that hears this chanting, he also fails to realize that the gold tint to his fur has returned, as well as his eyes goign ferral red.

In one of the bathrooms water is heard as well as Kite mumbling things "Old man, can't this wait? I've been in a sewer for goodness sake, and I'm about to rest..." there is a momentary silence "I know my duties are to protect the land so this curse can be lifted from me, blah blah blah... and ok, OLMAN! Happy? ...say what? Huh? That can't be, I just checked there yeste... it isn't my fault!" inaudible mumbles are heard and a few growls.

[Ben]

Gem, awakedned, by the sudden shift in the lupines stature, sees the look in the lupines eyes......without hesitation, he grabs his shortsword from the his belt, on his pile of clothing beside the bed, and takes a defensive stance at the sight of a possible ferral lupine.........

"Be at ease, dog-man........your posture puts me at odds with comfort...." Gem speaks loudly, to attract the attention of the resting companiaons...

[Darkfox]

A rather kidlike scratchy tone is heard from a nearby window "It be only a problem if thou make it filthy human." The three-foot tall creature from the sewers is perched in the window it appears that it's claws were actually huge spiked pawlike gloves strapped to it's arms and it's eyes burn with a wild look with vertical pupils, it's fur is a greenish and it has 3 black marks under each of it's eyes, it's ears are erect and long, it's tails flip about wildly, it's feet are big, somewhat like a kangaroo, or a squirrel and seems semi-humanoid, it's eyes seem direct but it's stance is a little too calm and confident. "If it wasn't for my bindings thine kind would not be allowed to filth the air with each vile breath."

[Rywho]

Lupine becomes confused, "what do you mean? I-" it soon danws on him at his posture, as well as his lack of civilized thought.  Without realizing sudden lurch foreward, he notices Gem's stance become even more defensive, through Lupine's ferral eyes it can be seen him pleading for Gem to get away.

[Ben]

with a swift double take of the unfolding events, gem ducks, and rolls, srouding himself in his cloak,  Sword still at the ready...

The roll is dodge to the side....flanking the lupines lurch forward, and clearing the strike path of the humanid creature.....

a loud battlecry streams from the pit of gems lungs.....


"GWWAAAAARRRRR" (ooc: I love gwar)

"KITE, JENNA!!!!"



Clearing the lurch, gem pounces the back of the lupine, in its re-assesment of balance, after its initial pounce......Gem now has the stuggling lupine in a  un certain neck lock.

[Rywho]

Lupine let's out a howl, and jerks hard to the side in attempts to throw Gem off.  Seeing as this does not work, Lupine stands up quickly, though with so much force it cause him to lose balance and fall backwards.  Though he is losing his mind he has yet to grab hold of Gem.

[Ben]

with a quick, clean reversal, gem is atop the lupine, with its head wrapped in gems now removed cloak......retraining the forelimbs and teeth of the beast........Gems head is back, frantically searching for the bi-tailed creature that was in the window.....




"KIIIITE!!! JENNNNAAA!!!!!! FOR THE LOVE OF YOUR HORRID CANINE FRIEND, COME NOW......."
Gem stands, his foot atop the cloak restraining the lupine, at a more devensive advantage over any further attack......

[Darkfox]

The creature laughs "Overzealous mortal, thou should haft take cover rather than playing the stupid hero. Doest thou not realize the lupine is not in control or do I have to beat sense into your thick skull?" With that the creature unperches and stares into Lupine's eyes.

[Ben]

In the moment the creatures gazr is locked on the unknown foe, gem, bolts, snagging his blade on his cloak so to pick it up in his retreat from this part of the room........

With a leap, gem hast cleared the bedd, and lands low to pick up his quiver on the floor, un strapps his bow, and while turning, draws the composite bow, armed for a fire.......to gems left, is the Washroom door......With kite.....Jenna is not in the Room.....

"LORD KITERIUS!!! AROUSE FROM YOUR NARCICISM!....YOUR SKILLS ARE NEEDED." Gem kicks the door open, revealing kite in a most comprimising pose

[Darkfox]

To correct the above: Kite is nowhere to be seen in the washroom, just his clothes are to be found littered among the ground.

The creature muttered "Do not make any sudden movements mortal less thou wishes a very horrid end..."
