Smugglers, Saints, and Spears - Val Ritz - 06-30-2014
It has been a little over six months since the Lycian occupation of Etruria. The ashes of the Church of St. Elimine have long since gone cold and been washed away. However, even months after the fact, there are still people, be it families, groups, or just individuals, who would seek to escape unnoticed. Many scholars of magic, unaccustomed to combat or otherwise unwilling to take their chances alone, often seek escorts through backroads and mountain passes. Sometimes they escape to Sacae, but often the plains are just as dangerous for a refugee as Etruria is- maybe moreso. More often they are taken along the "Imperial Highroad," a series of treacherous mountain passes that lead along the Taliver Mountains and into Bern. The guides and smugglers that work this road charge exorbitantly, but their success rates are nothing to sneeze at.
In this particular venture, Cherise, a member of a smuggler band known as the Silver Spears, is looking for "private contractors" (read: sellswords, mercenaries, and general rogues) to help escort, not a person, but a small, valuable heirloom from a small Elimine shrine in the east of Etruria, through the mountain passes, and to the Church in the capital city of Bern. The pay is, in short, obscene. Should this venture succeed, each person will likely have enough money to buy themselves a decent-sized house. The trouble, of course, is that the Taliver Mountains are home to more bandits than your average stock market; bandits that have become even bolder now that Etruria is crippled and the Lycian army is busy keeping her under its thumb. As if that wasn't enough, not everything may be as it seems on this particular job...

It's possible to catch Panika through sheer serendipity - that is to say, I can have her conveniently be in the path of Cherise so that she may be recruited to the
RE: Smugglers, Saints, and Spears - Darcune - 06-30-2014
I'd like to participate.
Bor is always up for a fight, especially when there's money at the end.
RE: Smugglers, Saints, and Spears - Breadophile - 06-30-2014
I suppose I would be passing by this area. Ray's the name.
RE: Smugglers, Saints, and Spears - Gazetteer - 06-30-2014
Hi -- my character got approved. Link's in my signature.

"As-yet-unnamed WyvernSlayer Shmuck" confirmed as Barry Anders.

Because it's likely to become very relevant very soon, the Inquisition squad's general threat level is as follows:
The actual Inquisitor is Brigitte, the blonde crazy woman in red robes. For all intents and purposes she's a Bishop, B in Light and C in Staves or something similar, but the letter grades don't matter. What you need to know is that she's powerful, but not top-tier powerful.
Her backup dancers have medium-ish armor, and both have spears that can shoot Light magic. They're kind of like Paladins sans horses, essentially. They're pretty big and they're crack shots, but they aren't the brains of the operation. Skill is at about a B rank as well.

It's generally a good idea to put this kind of information in the topic itself -- either behind spoiler tags or otherwise just sectioned off into its own part of a post. Glancing down at the previous posts while you're writing is a lot more convenient than having to flip over to a discussion topic in an entirely different subforum.

Duly noted. First time organizing something like this and all.

I want to keep spoilers and OOC's out of the RP threads themselves because the spoilers here are fugly. This is the place where it should go.
You're good, CF.
